U.S. GAAP Net Income Attributable to Evercore Partners Inc. for the first quarter was $4.3 million, or $0.10 per share, compared to $10.6 million, or $0.25 per share, a year ago and $27.7 million, or $0.66 per share, last quarter.

Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income Attributable to Evercore Partners Inc. was $29.7 million, or $0.56 per share, for the first quarter, up 102% compared to $14.7 million, or $0.31 per share, a year ago and down 35% compared to $45.9 million, or $0.90 per share, last quarter.

The U.S. GAAP trailing twelve-month compensation ratio of 61.8% compares to 62.4% for the same period in 2014 and 60.0% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The U.S. GAAP compensation ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2015, March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2014 was 68.5%, 61.3% and 59.7%, respectively.

Results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 include three months of combined operations of Evercore ISI compared to two months of Evercore ISI’s results for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

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.

“We are pleased with the momentum of our businesses as our revenues and operating income in the first quarter substantially exceeded prior year amounts; sustaining our track record of delivering consistent and meaningful year over year growth in revenues, operating income and EPS. Both our risked and unrisked pipelines of Advisory opportunities continue to be strong and our pipeline of underwriting assignments is building. Assets Under Management in our Wealth Management and Trust business grew by 15% versus the first quarter of 2014; as overall Assets Under Management grew 1% for the period. And the integration of our Equities business is on track, producing economic operating margins from secondary activities of 14%, and 16% including underwriting activities. We have seen meaningful opportunities to add senior talent in 2015. To date, eleven senior bankers have committed to join our firm, including six Advisory bankers focused on M&A and Restructuring, two bankers focused on Equity Capital Markets, one senior research analyst and two Senior Advisors. These professionals will strengthen our Technology, Energy, Chemicals, Power and Utilities and Financial Institutions teams and extend our capabilities in Restructuring and ECM,” said Ralph Schlosstein, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Concurrently, we remain committed to balancing investments for the future with delivering returns to our shareholders. In the first quarter we returned $100.1 million to shareholders, repurchasing 1.7 million shares, the highest amount of any quarter in our history.”

“The M&A environment continued to improve in the first quarter with continued growth in the dollar volume of announced transactions. Our teams are working closely with clients in multiple sectors; identifying opportunities created by changing energy prices, consolidation in technology and healthcare, QE in Europe and the steady recovery of the U.S. economy,” said Roger Altman, Executive Chairman. “We are also working hard to deliver on the expanded opportunities created by our investment in Evercore ISI, where our ECM backlogs continue to grow strongly. We are on track to having our strongest recruiting year ever, and we are excited by the opportunities that lie ahead.”

Throughout the discussion of Evercore’s business segments, information is presented on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, which is an unaudited non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) measure. Adjusted Pro Forma 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 vested and unvested Evercore LP Units and Interests into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed Adjusted Pro Forma 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. For more information about the Adjusted Pro Forma basis of reporting used by management to evaluate the performance of Evercore and each line of business, including reconciliations of U.S. GAAP results to an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, see pages A-2 through A-11 included in Annex I. These Adjusted Pro Forma amounts are allocated to the Company’s two business segments: Investment Banking and Investment Management.

Total Investment Banking Revenue		$	213,972			$	293,363			$	125,667			(27	%)			70	%

During the quarter, Investment Banking earned advisory fees from 151 clients (vs. 116 in Q1 2014 and 201 in Q4 2014) and fees in excess of $1 million from 35 transactions (vs. 32 in Q1 2014 and 63 in Q4 2014).

During the first quarter of 2015 Commissions and Related Fees of $53.1 million increased 543% from last year, reflecting the acquisition of ISI. Underwriting Fees of $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased 52% versus the prior year.

Evercore ISI, our U.S. equities business, reported Net Revenues of $55.2 million, including allocated underwriting revenues of $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Operating margins as contemplated for the performance targets of the Class G and H LP Interests, giving effect to just Commissions and Related Fees, for the first quarter approximated 14%, and were 16% including the effect of underwriting revenues.

Expenses

Compensation costs were $122.1 million for the first quarter, an increase of 62% year-over-year and a decrease of 29% sequentially. The trailing twelve-month compensation ratio was 58.9%, down from 60.4% a year ago and 59.6% for the previous quarter. Evercore’s Investment Banking compensation ratio was 56.9% for the first quarter, down versus the compensation ratio reported for the three months ended March 31, 2014 of 59.9% and December 31, 2014 of 58.6%.

Non-compensation costs for the current quarter were $45.6 million, up 66% from the same period last year and 2% sequentially. The increase in costs versus the same period in the prior year reflects the addition of personnel within most parts of the business, increased new business costs associated with higher levels of global transaction activity and higher professional fees. Further, the increase in costs versus the prior quarter reflects the inclusion of ISI for the full quarter versus two months in the prior quarter. The ratio of non-compensation costs to net revenue for the current quarter was 21.3%, compared to 21.8% in the same quarter last year and 15.2% in the previous quarter.

(1) Management fees from Institutional Asset Management were $11.1 million, $11.5 million and $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014, respectively, on a U.S. GAAP basis, excluding the reduction of revenues for client-related expenses.

(2) Equity in G5 ǀ Evercore - Wealth Management and ABS on a U.S. GAAP basis are reclassified from Investment Management Revenue to Income from Equity Method Investments.

Investment Advisory and Management Fees of $20.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 increased 3% compared to the same period a year ago, driven primarily by higher fees in Wealth Management, reflecting higher levels of assets under management, partially offset by lower fees in Private Equity.

Realized and Unrealized Gains of $1.1 million in the quarter decreased relative to the prior year; the change relative to the prior period was driven principally by higher Private Equity losses which by their nature may fluctuate significantly in both timing and amount.

Equity in Earnings of Affiliates of $1.1 million in the quarter increased relative to the prior year principally as a result of higher income earned in the first quarter of 2015 by ABS and G5 ǀ Evercore.

Expenses

Investment Management’s first quarter expenses were $20.0 million, up 2% compared to the first quarter of 2014 and down 13% compared to the previous quarter.

Other U.S. GAAP Adjustments

Evercore’s Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income Attributable to Evercore Partners Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was higher than U.S. GAAP as a result of the exclusion of expenses associated with awards granted in conjunction with certain of the Company’s acquisitions, Special Charges, certain other business acquisition-related charges and professional fees.

Acquisition-related compensation charges for 2015 include expenses associated with performance-based awards granted in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of ISI. The amount of expense is based on the determination that it is probable that Evercore ISI will achieve certain earnings and margin targets in 2015 and in future periods. Special Charges for 2015 include separation benefits and costs associated with the termination of certain contracts within Evercore ISI and the finalization of a matter associated with the wind-down of the Company’s U.S. Private Equity business. Special Charges for 2014 included separation benefits and certain exit costs related to combining the equities businesses upon the ISI acquisition and a provision against contingent consideration due on the disposition of Pan in 2013. Acquisition-related charges for 2015 and 2014 included professional fees incurred related to the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of the operating businesses of ISI.

In addition, for Adjusted Pro Forma purposes, client related expenses have been presented as a reduction from Revenues and Non-compensation costs.

Evercore’s Adjusted Pro Forma Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was higher than U.S. GAAP as a result of the inclusion of Evercore LP partnership units, as well as the assumed vesting of certain acquisition-related shares, LP Unit/Interest and unvested restricted stock units granted to Lexicon and ISI employees.

Further details of these adjustments, as well as an explanation of similar amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the three months ended December 31, 2014, are included in Annex I, pages A-2 to A-11.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling Interests in certain operating subsidiaries are owned by the principals and strategic investors in these businesses. Evercore’s equity ownership percentages in these operating businesses range from 62% to 72%. For the periods ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014 the gain (loss) allocated to non-controlling interests was as follows:

		Net Gain (Loss) Allocated to Noncontrolling Interests
		Three Months Ended
		March 31, 2015					December 31, 2014				March 31, 2014
Segment		(dollars in thousands)
Investment Banking (1)		$	(301	)			$	1,315			$	(864	)
Investment Management (1)			616					965				1,417
Total		$	315				$	2,280			$	553

(1) The difference between the above Adjusted Pro Forma and U.S. GAAP Noncontrolling Interests relates primarily to intangible amortization expense for certain acquisitions, which we excluded from the Adjusted Pro Forma results.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, Evercore’s Adjusted Pro Forma effective tax rate was 37.3%, compared to 37.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Changes in the effective tax rate are principally driven by the level of earnings in businesses with minority owners and earnings generated outside of the U.S.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, Evercore’s U.S. GAAP effective tax rate was approximately 51.3%, compared to 36.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The effective tax rate for U.S. GAAP purposes for 2015 reflects significant adjustments relating to the tax treatment of compensation associated with Evercore LP Units/Interests, state, local and foreign taxes, and other adjustments.

Balance Sheet

The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet, holding cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $258.2 million at March 31, 2015. Current assets exceed current liabilities by $270.7 million at March 31, 2015. Amounts due related to the Long-Term Notes Payable and Subordinated Borrowings were $128.3 million at March 31, 2015.

Capital Transactions

On April 20, 2015, the Board of Directors of Evercore declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 per share to be paid on June 12, 2015 to common stockholders of record on May 29, 2015.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 the Company repurchased approximately 1.7 million shares at an average cost per share of $51.05.

Adjusted Pro Forma Results

Throughout the discussion of Evercore’s business segments, information is presented on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, which is a non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) measure. Adjusted Pro Forma results begin with information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), adjusted to exclude certain items and reflect the conversion of vested and unvested Evercore LP Units, other IPO related restricted stock unit awards, as well as Acquisition Related Share Issuances and Unvested Restricted Stock Units granted to Lexicon and ISI employees, into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed Adjusted Pro Forma 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. The Company 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. These Adjusted Pro Forma amounts are allocated to the Company’s two business segments: Investment Banking and Investment Management. The differences between Adjusted Pro Forma and U.S. GAAP results are as follows:

1.		Assumed Vesting of Evercore LP Units and Exchange into Class A Shares. The Company incurred expenses, in Employee Compensation and Benefits, resulting from the vesting of Class E LP Units issued in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI, as well as Class G and H LP Interests. The amount of expense for the Class G and H LP Interests is based on the determination that it is probable that Evercore ISI will achieve certain earnings and margin targets in 2015 and in future periods. The Adjusted Pro Forma results assume these LP Units and certain Class G and H LP Interests have vested and have been exchanged for Class A shares. Accordingly, any expense associated with these units, and related awards, is excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results, and the noncontrolling interest related to these units is converted to controlling interest. The Company’s Management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed conversion of these previously granted equity interests, and thus the Adjusted Pro Forma results reflect the exchange of certain vested and unvested Evercore LP partnership units and interests and IPO related restricted stock unit awards into Class A shares.
2.		Adjustments Associated with Business Combinations. The following charges resulting from business combinations have been excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results because the Company’s Management believes that operating performance is more comparable across periods excluding the effects of these acquisition-related charges:
	a.	Amortization of Intangible Assets and Other Purchase Accounting-related Amortization. Amortization of intangible assets and other purchase accounting-related amortization from the acquisitions of ISI, SFS and certain other acquisitions.
	b.	Compensation Charges. Expenses for deferred consideration issued to the sellers of certain of the Company’s acquisitions, as well as base salary adjustments for Lexicon employees for the period preceding the acquisition.
	c.	GP Investments. Write-off of General Partnership investment balances during the fourth quarter of 2013 associated with the acquisition of Protego.
	d.	Acquisition and Transition Costs. Primarily professional fees for legal and other services incurred during the first quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014 related to the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of the operating businesses of ISI.
3.		Client Related Expenses. Client related expenses and provisions for uncollected receivables have been classified as a reduction of revenue in the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation. The Company’s Management believes that this adjustment results in more meaningful key operating ratios, such as compensation to net revenues and operating margin.
		A - 2
4.		Professional Fees. The expense associated with share-based awards resulting from increases in the share price, which is required upon change in employment status, is excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results.
5.		Special Charges. Expenses during the first quarter of 2015 primarily related to separation benefits and costs associated with the termination of certain contracts within the Company’s Evercore ISI business, and the finalization of a matter associated with the wind-down of the Company’s U.S. Private Equity business. Expenses during the fourth quarter of 2014 primarily related to separation benefits and certain exit costs related to combining the equities businesses upon the ISI acquisition during the second half of 2014 and a provision against contingent consideration due on the disposition of Pan in 2013 during the fourth quarter of 2014.
6.		Income Taxes. Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, a C-Corporation and a Public Corporation and therefore, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate-level taxes. As a result, adjustments have been made to the Adjusted Pro Forma earnings to assume that the Company has adopted a conventional corporate tax structure and is taxed as a C-Corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates, that all deferred tax assets relating to foreign operations are fully realizable within the structure on a consolidated basis and that adjustments for deferred tax assets related to the ultimate tax deductions for equity-based compensation awards are made directly to stockholders’ equity. This assumption is consistent with the assumption that certain Evercore LP Units and interests are vested and exchanged into Class A shares, as discussed in Item 1 above, as the assumed exchange would change the tax structure of the Company. In addition, the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation reflects the netting of changes in the Company’s Tax Receivable Agreement against Income Tax Expense.
7.		Presentation of Interest Expense. The Adjusted Pro Forma results present interest expense on short-term repurchase agreements, within the Investment Management segment, in Other Revenues, net, as the Company’s Management believes it is more meaningful to present the spread on net interest resulting from the matched financial assets and liabilities. In addition, Adjusted Pro Forma Investment Banking and Investment Management Operating Income is presented before interest expense on debt, which is included in interest expense on a U.S. GAAP basis.
8.		Presentation of Income from Equity Method Investments. The Adjusted Pro Forma results present Income from Equity Method Investments within Revenue as the Company’s Management believes it is a more meaningful presentation.

(9) Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, a C-Corporation and a Public Corporation and therefore, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate level taxes. As a result, adjustments have been made to Evercore’s effective tax rate assuming that the Company has adopted a conventional corporate tax structure and is taxed as a C-Corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates, that all deferred tax assets relating to foreign operations are fully realizable within the structure on a consolidated basis and that, historically, adjustments for deferred tax assets related to the ultimate tax deductions for equity-based compensation awards are made directly to stockholders’ equity. In addition, the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation reflects the netting of changes in the Company’s Tax Receivable Agreement against Income Tax Expense.
