In 2023, we were involved in four of the 10 largest global deals, all of which were announced in the second half of the year. In the fourth quarter, we advised Chevron on its $60 billion acquisition of Hess, U.S. Steel on its sale to Nippon Steel for $14.9 billion and NFP on its sale to Aon for $13.4 billion

Our market-leading Private Capital Advisory and Fundraising group had a strong year driven by robust continuation fund activity and our resilient fundraising practice. In the fourth quarter, Evercore priced its first ever Collateralized Fund Obligation ("CFO"), which marks the successful addition of a new product capability for this business

 

 

In 2023, Evercore was a bookrunner on nearly all of its underwritten equity offerings and was lead-left bookrunner on a $2.2 billion offering for GE HealthCare Technologies. Our ECM business continued to diversify across sectors and products

 

 

Evercore’s Equities business had its strongest fourth quarter revenue in the past five years

Evercore Inc. (NYSE: EVR) today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

LEADERSHIP COMMENTARY

John S. Weinberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "As we start a new year, we continue to be encouraged by the strengthening of market activity and our internal dialogue levels. While 2023 presented a challenging operating environment, we continued to invest heavily in our business and we are committed to do so over the near and long-term."

Roger C. Altman, Founder and Senior Chairman, "We begin 2024 by having advised on three of the four largest global transactions to date and with an exceptional group of newly promoted and externally hired SMDs. We believe we are better positioned than at any point in our history to gain market share across our businesses."

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 & Equities and Investment Management. Investment Banking & Equities 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-7 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 2023 relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

Evercore's Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 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 twelve months ended December 31, 2022 are included in pages A-2 to A-7.

Underwriting Fees Fourth quarter Underwriting Fees decreased $25.0 million, or 57%, year-over-year, and full year Underwriting Fees decreased $11.6 million, or 9%, year-over-year, reflecting a decrease in the number of transactions we participated in during 2023.

Full year Commissions and Related Revenue decreased $3.4 million, or 2%, year-over-year, primarily reflecting lower trading revenues.

Asset Management and Administration Fees Fourth quarter Asset Management and Administration Fees increased $1.4 million, or 9%, year-over-year, driven by an increase in fees from Wealth Management clients, as associated AUM increased 16%, primarily from market appreciation.

Other Revenue Fourth quarter Other Revenue, net, increased $18.6 million, or 134%, year-over-year, primarily reflecting higher returns on our fixed income investment portfolios, which primarily consist of U.S. treasury bills, and higher performance of our investment funds portfolio. Full year Other Revenue, net, increased $105.5 million year-over-year, primarily reflecting a shift from losses of $29.8 million in 2022 to gains of $34.3 million in 2023 on our investment funds portfolio due to overall market appreciation, as well as higher returns on our fixed income investment portfolios, which primarily consist of U.S. treasury bills.

Employee Compensation and Benefits Fourth quarter Employee Compensation and Benefits increased $36.9 million, or 7%, year-over-year, reflecting a compensation ratio of 71.4% for the fourth quarter of 2023 versus 62.9% for the prior year period. The increase in Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, a higher accrual for incentive compensation and higher base salaries. The Compensation Ratio was impacted by lower net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. Full year Employee Compensation and Benefits decreased $40.6 million, or 2%, year-over-year, reflecting a full year compensation ratio of 68.3% versus 61.5% 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, partially offset by higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards and higher base salaries. The Compensation Ratio was impacted by lower net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. See "Deferred Compensation" for more information.

Non-Compensation Costs Fourth quarter Non-Compensation Costs increased $10.9 million, or 11%, year-over-year, primarily driven by increases in travel and related expenses, as well as communications and information services, principally reflecting higher research services and license fees in the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase was also attributed to the reversal of expense in the fourth quarter of 2022 associated with the decline in the fair value of contingent consideration owed to former equity interest holders in our RECA business. The fourth quarter Non-Compensation ratio of 13.6% increased from 11.5% for the prior year period. The Non-Compensation Ratio was also impacted by lower net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. Full year Non-Compensation Costs increased $41.7 million, or 11%, year-over-year, primarily driven by increases in travel and related expenses, as well as communications and information services, principally reflecting higher license fees and research services in 2023. The increase was also attributed to the reversal of expense in 2022 associated with the decline in the fair value of contingent consideration owed to former equity interest holders in our RECA business. The full year Non-Compensation ratio of 16.8% increased from 13.2% for the prior year period. The Non-Compensation Ratio was also impacted by lower net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period.

Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs Full year 2023 Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

Fourth quarter 2022 Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, relate to separation benefits and other charges related to the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico. Full year 2022 Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, 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, separation benefits and other charges related to the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

Effective Tax Rate

The fourth quarter effective tax rate was 23.1% versus 27.7% for the prior year period. The full year effective tax rate was 22.0% versus 24.5% for the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the year is principally impacted by the deduction associated with the appreciation in the Firm's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price. The full year provision for income taxes for 2023 reflects an additional tax benefit of $13.7 million versus $19.6 million for the prior year period, due to the net impact associated with the appreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price.

The adjusted effective tax rate for the year is principally impacted by the deduction associated with the appreciation in the Firm's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price. The full year adjusted provision for income taxes for 2023 reflects an additional tax benefit of $14.8 million versus $20.2 million for the prior year period, due to the net impact associated with the appreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price.

Liquidity

The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet. As of December 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $596.9 million, investment securities and certificates of deposit were $1.4 billion and current assets exceeded current liabilities by $1.7 billion. Amounts due related to the Notes Payable were $373.9 million at December 31, 2023.

Headcount

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company employed approximately 2,195 and 2,120 people, respectively, worldwide.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company employed 174(1) and 169(2) total Senior Managing Directors, respectively, in its Investment Banking & Equities segment, of which 136(1) and 130(2), respectively, were Advisory Senior Managing Directors.

(2)

Senior Managing Director headcount as of December 31, 2022, adjusted to include one additional Advisory Senior Managing Director that joined in the first quarter of 2023.

Deferred Compensation

During 2023, the Company granted to certain employees 2.5 million unvested restricted stock units ("RSUs") (which were primarily granted in conjunction with the 2022 bonus awards) with a grant date fair value of $338.4 million.

In addition, during 2023, the Company granted $163 million of deferred cash awards to certain employees, related to our deferred cash compensation program, principally pursuant to 2022 bonus awards.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had 5.7 million unvested RSUs with an aggregate grant date fair value of $709.7 million. RSUs are expensed over the service period of the award, subject to retirement eligibility, and generally vest over four years.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company expects to pay an aggregate of $366.9 million related to our deferred cash compensation program at various dates through 2027, subject to certain vesting events. Amounts due pursuant to this program are expensed over the service period of the award, subject to retirement eligibility, and are reflected in Accrued Compensation and Benefits, a component of current liabilities.

Adjusted Results

Throughout the discussion of Evercore's business and elsewhere in this release, information is presented on an Adjusted basis, which is a non-generally accepted accounting principles ("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"), adjusted to exclude certain items and reflect the conversion of certain Evercore LP Units, as well as Unvested Restricted Stock 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. 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 amounts are allocated to the Company's two business segments: Investment Banking & Equities and Investment Management. The differences between the Adjusted and U.S. GAAP results are as follows:

  1. Assumed Exchange of Evercore LP Units into Class A Shares. The Adjusted results assume substantially all Evercore LP Units have been exchanged for Class A shares. Accordingly, the noncontrolling interest related to these units is converted to a controlling interest. The Company's management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed conversion of substantially all of these previously granted equity interests and IPO related restricted stock units, and thus the Adjusted results reflect their exchange into Class A shares.
  2. Adjustments Associated with Business Combinations and Divestitures. The following charges resulting from business combinations and divestitures have been excluded from the Adjusted results because the Company's Management believes that operating performance is more comparable across periods excluding the effects of these charges:
    1. Gain on Sale of Interests in ABS. The gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's interests in ABS in the first quarter of 2022 is excluded from the Adjusted presentation.
  3. Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs. Expenses during 2023 that are excluded from the Adjusted presentation relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico. Expenses during 2022 that are excluded from the Adjusted presentation relate to charges associated with the prepayment of the Company's Series B Notes during the second quarter, as well as certain professional fees, separation benefits and other charges related to the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.
  4. Income Taxes. Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, C-Corporations and a Public Corporation in the U.S. as the ultimate parent. Certain of the subsidiaries, particularly Evercore LP, have noncontrolling interests held by management or former members of management. As a result, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate level taxes and certain other state and local taxes are levied. The assumption in the Adjusted earnings presentation is that substantially all of the noncontrolling interest is eliminated through the exchange of Evercore LP units into Class A common stock of the ultimate parent. As a result, the Adjusted earnings presentation assumes that the allocation of earnings to Evercore LP’s noncontrolling interest holders is substantially eliminated and is therefore subject to statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional tax structure in the U.S. and that certain state and local taxes are reduced accordingly.
  5. Presentation of Interest Expense. The Adjusted results present Adjusted Investment Banking & Equities Operating Income before interest expense on debt, which is included in interest expense on a U.S. GAAP basis.
  6. Presentation of Income from Equity Method Investments. The Adjusted results present Income from Equity Method Investments within Revenue as the Company's Management believes it is a useful presentation.

(a) Operating Income excludes Income (Loss) from Equity Method Investments.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Adjusted Financial Data

For further information on these adjustments, see page A-2.

(1)

Income (Loss) from Equity Method Investments has been reclassified to Revenue in the Adjusted presentation.

(2)

Interest Expense on Debt is excluded from Net Revenues and presented below Operating Income in the Adjusted results and is included in Interest Expense on a U.S. GAAP basis.

(3)

The gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's interests in ABS in the first quarter of 2022 is excluded from the Adjusted presentation.

(4)

Expenses during 2023 that are excluded from the Adjusted presentation relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico. Expenses during 2022 that are excluded from the Adjusted presentation relate to charges associated with the prepayment of the Company's Series B Notes during the second quarter, as well as certain professional fees, separation benefits and other charges related to the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

(5)

Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, C-Corporations and a Public Corporation in the U.S. as the ultimate parent. Certain of the subsidiaries, particularly Evercore LP, have noncontrolling interests held by management or former members of management. As a result, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate level taxes and certain other state and local taxes are levied. The assumption in the Adjusted earnings presentation is that substantially all of the noncontrolling interest is eliminated through the exchange of Evercore LP units into Class A common stock of the ultimate parent. As a result, the Adjusted earnings presentation assumes that the allocation of earnings to Evercore LP’s noncontrolling interest holders is substantially eliminated and is therefore subject to statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional tax structure in the U.S. and that certain state and local taxes are reduced accordingly.

(6)

Reflects an adjustment to eliminate noncontrolling interest related to substantially all Evercore LP partnership units which are assumed to be converted to Class A common stock in the Adjusted presentation.

(7)

Assumes the exchange into Class A shares of substantially all Evercore LP Units and IPO related restricted stock unit awards in the Adjusted presentation. In the computation of outstanding common stock equivalents for U.S. GAAP net income per share, the Evercore LP Units are anti-dilutive.
