Evercore's quarterly results may fluctuate significantly due to the timing and amount of transaction fees earned, as well as other factors. Accordingly, financial results in any particular quarter may not be representative of future results over a longer period of time.

Business Segments:

Evercore's business results are categorized into two segments: Investment Banking and Investment Management. Investment Banking includes providing advice to clients on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic corporate transactions, as well as services related to securities underwriting, private placement services and commissions for agency-based equity trading services and equity research. Investment Management includes Wealth Management and interests in private equity funds which are not managed by the Company, as well as advising third-party investors through affiliates. See pages A-2 to A-9 for further information and reconciliations of these segment results to our U.S. GAAP consolidated results.

Non-GAAP Measures:

Throughout this release certain information is presented on an adjusted basis, which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted results begin with information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), and then those results are adjusted to exclude certain items and reflect the conversion of certain Evercore LP Units into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed adjusted measures and any adjustments thereto, when presented in conjunction with comparable U.S. GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare Evercore's results across several periods and facilitate an understanding of Evercore's operating results. Evercore uses these measures to evaluate its operating performance, as well as the performance of individual employees. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, have been excluded from Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. These charges in 2022 relate to charges associated with the prepayment of the Company's $67 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.23% Series B senior notes, originally due March 30, 2023 (the "Series B Notes"), during the second quarter, as well as certain professional fees related to the ongoing liquidation of the Company's operations in Mexico.

The gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's interests in ABS in the first quarter of 2022 has been excluded from Adjusted Net Revenues.

Evercore's Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were higher than U.S. GAAP, as a result of the inclusion of certain Evercore LP Units and Unvested Restricted Stock Units.

Further details of these adjustments, as well as an explanation of similar amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are included in pages A-2 to A-9.

Advisory Fees - Third quarter Advisory Fees decreased $220.1 million, or 31%, year-over-year, reflecting a decrease in the number of Advisory fees earned and a decline in revenue earned from large transactions during the third quarter of 2022. Year-to-date Advisory Fees decreased $92.0 million, or 5%, year-over- year, reflecting a decrease in the number of Advisory fees earned.

Underwriting Fees - Third quarter Underwriting Fees decreased $25.7 million, or 47%, year-over-year, and year-to-date Underwriting Fees decreased $103.2 million, or 57%, year-over-year. The decrease principally reflects a decrease in the number of transactions we participated in due to the decline in overall market issuances.

Commissions and Related Revenue - Third quarter Commissions and Related Revenue increased $2.4 million, or 5%, year-over-year, primarily reflecting higher trading volumes and increased revenues from

research subscriptions. Year-to-date Commissions and Related Revenue increased $1.6 million, or 1%, year-over-year, primarily reflecting increased revenues from research subscriptions.

Asset Management and Administration Fees - Third quarter Asset Management and Administration Fees decreased $1.3 million, or 8%, year-over-year, driven by a decrease in fees from Wealth Management clients as associated AUM decreased 12%, primarily from market depreciation. Year-to-date Asset Management and Administration Fees increased $0.6 million, or 1%, year-over-year, driven by an increase in fees from Wealth Management clients.

Other Revenue - Third quarter Other Revenue, net, decreased $1.9 million, or 67%, year-over-year, primarily reflecting lower performance of our investment funds portfolio due to the overall market decline. The portfolio is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program. Year-to-date Other Revenue, net, decreased $50.0 million, year-over-year, primarily reflecting a shift from gains of $15.8 million to losses of $39.0 million on our investment funds portfolio due to the overall market decline. The decrease was also driven by a $4.4 million gain on the redemption of the G5 debt security in the second quarter of 2021. This was partially offset by a $1.3 million gain on the sale of a portion of our interests in ABS during the first quarter of 2022.

Employee Compensation and Benefits - Third quarter Employee Compensation and Benefits decreased $130.7 million, or 27%, year-over-year, reflecting a compensation ratio of 61.7% for the quarter versus 59.1% for the prior year period. The decrease in Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects a lower accrual for incentive compensation tied to lower revenue, partially offset by higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards. Year-to-date Employee Compensation and Benefits decreased $115.2 million, or 9%, year-over- year, reflecting a year-to-date compensation ratio of 60.8% versus 59.3% for the prior year period. The decrease in Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects a lower accrual for incentive compensation tied to lower revenue, partially offset by higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards. The Compensation Ratio was also impacted by the lower performance of our investment funds portfolio during the current year period. See "Deferred Compensation" for more information.

Non-CompensationCosts - Third quarter Non-Compensation Costs increased $7.4 million, or 9%, year- over-year, primarily driven by an increase in travel and related expenses, as travel began to resume during the fourth quarter of 2021, as well as higher professional fees. The third quarter Non-Compensation ratio of 15.7% increased from 10.1% for the prior year period. Year-to-dateNon-Compensation Costs increased $40.6 million, or 18%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in travel and related expenses, as travel began to resume during the fourth quarter of 2021, as well as higher professional fees. The year-to- date Non-Compensation ratio of 14.0% increased from 10.5% for the prior year period.
