Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies
For a further discussion of the Company's accounting policies, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, necessary to fairly present the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The December 31, 2023 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are comprised of the consolidation of Evercore LP and Evercore LP's wholly-owned and majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Evercore Group L.L.C. ("EGL"), a registered broker-dealer in the U.S. The Company's policy is to consolidate all subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest, as well as any variable interest entities ("VIEs") where the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, when it has the power to make the decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb significant losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reviews factors, including the rights of the equity holders and obligations of equity holders to absorb losses or receive expected residual returns, to determine if the investment is a VIE. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly by the Company. The consolidation analysis is generally performed qualitatively. This analysis, which requires judgment, is performed at each reporting date.
Evercore LP is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Specifically, the Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore LP and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity while the limited partners have no kick-out or substantive participating rights. The assets and liabilities of Evercore LP represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the Company with the exception of U.S. corporate taxes

The Company recognized revenue of $5,484 and $10,349 on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $4,643 and $8,190 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, that was initially included in deferred revenue within Other Current Liabilities on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Neither the Company nor its related parties will have the ability to make decisions that significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. Further, as a limited partner in these entities, the Company does not possess substantive participating rights. The Company had assets of $3,502 and $3,580 included
EVERCORE INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)
in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, related to these unconsolidated VIEs, representing the carrying value of the Company's investments in the entities. The Company's exposure to the obligations of these VIEs is generally limited to its investments in these entities. The Company's maximum exposure to loss as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $5,684 and $5,762, respectively, which represents the carrying value of the Company's investments in these VIEs, as well as any unfunded commitments to the current and future funds.

Note 8 – Leases
Operating Leases – The Company leases office space under non-cancelable lease agreements, which expire on various dates through 2035. The Company reflects lease expense over the lease terms on a straight-line basis. The lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Occupancy lease agreements, in addition to base rentals, generally are subject to escalation provisions based on certain costs incurred by the landlord. The Company does not have any leases with variable lease payments. Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations includes operating lease cost for office space of $14,436 and $28,839 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $14,069 and $27,497 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and variable lease cost, which principally include costs for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses of $1,376 and $2,904 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $1,703 and $2,889 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
In conjunction with its lease agreements at 55 East 52nd St., New York, New York, the Company had an option to take on an additional three floors, which it exercised during 2023. The Company entered into a lease agreement for this space in January 2024 and anticipates that it will take possession of this space in 2025. The lease term will end on December 31, 2035. The expected additional annual expense under this lease agreement, net of certain lease incentives, is $9,862.
In conjunction with the lease of office space, the Company has entered into letters of credit in the amount of $5,823 and $5,757 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which are secured by cash that is included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
The Company has entered into various operating leases for the use of office equipment (primarily computers, printers, copiers and other information technology related equipment). Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations includes operating lease cost for office equipment of $1,568 and $3,042 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $1,335 and $2,785 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
The Company uses its secured incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The determination of an appropriate incremental borrowing rate requires significant assumptions and judgment. The Company's incremental borrowing rate was calculated based on the Company's recent debt issuances and current market conditions. The Company scales the rates appropriately depending on the life of the leases.
The Company incurred net operating cash outflows of $21,632 and $27,953 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to its operating leases, which was net of cash received from lease incentives of $1,684 and $621 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

In conjunction with the lease agreement to expand its headquarters at 55 East 52nd St., New York, New York and lease agreements at certain other locations, the Company has entered into certain lease agreements, primarily for office space, which have not yet commenced and thus are not yet included on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The Company anticipates that these leases will commence by the end of 2025 and will have lease terms of 3 to 11 years once they have commenced. The additional future payments under these arrangements are $141,824 as of June 30, 2024.
Note 9 – Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820") establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily-available active quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The type of investments included in Level 1 include listed equities, listed derivatives and treasury bills and notes. As required by ASC 820, the Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Periodically, the Company holds investments in corporate bonds, municipal bonds and other debt securities, the estimated fair values of which are based on prices provided by external pricing services. The Company also

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)
periodically holds foreign exchange currency forward contracts, the estimated fair value of which is based on foreign currency exchange rates provided by external services.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.
The following table presents the categorization of investments and certain other financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment.
The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company's financial instrument assets and liabilities, which are not measured at fair value on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, are listed in the tables below.

This resulted in a decrease to Noncontrolling Interest of $2,507 and $8,653 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, an increase to Class A Common Stock of $1 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and an increase to Additional Paid-In Capital of $2,507 and $8,652 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2024. See Note 11 for further information.
EWM Class A Units – During the second quarter of 2024, the Company granted 297 EWM Class A Units, which generally vest ratably over three years. Compensation expense related to the EWM Class A Units was $457 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Interests Purchased – During the second quarter of 2024, the Company purchased, at fair value, an additional 0.3% of the EWM Class A Units for $1,036. This purchase resulted in a decrease to Noncontrolling Interest of $67 and a decrease to Additional Paid-In Capital of $969 on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2024.
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company purchased, at fair value, an additional 0.7% of the EWM Class A Units for $2,002.

(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)
months ended June 30, 2023 and $2,023 during the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing the final payment under this arrangement. The fair value of the remaining contingent consideration was $2,023 as of December 31, 2023, which is included within Payable to Employees and Related Parties on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The amount of contingent consideration to be paid was dependent on the RECA business achieving certain revenue performance targets. The decline in the fair value of contingent consideration reduced Other Operating Expenses by $2,545 and $2,459 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of the contingent consideration reflects the present value of the expected payment due based on the current expectation for the business meeting the revenue performance targets. In conjunction with this transaction, the Company also issued payments in the first quarter of 2023 and 2024, contingent on continued employment with the Company. Accordingly, these payments are treated as compensation expense for accounting purposes in the periods earned. These payments were also dependent on the RECA business achieving certain revenue performance targets.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, these LP Units were antidilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders. The units that would have been included in the denominator of the computation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders if the effect would have been dilutive were 2,557 and 2,583 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and 2,815 and 2,785 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The adjustment to the numerator, diluted net income attributable to Class A common shareholders, if the effect would have been dilutive, would have been $5,014 and $11,226 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $2,918 and $9,905 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all Class A, E, I and K LP Units are converted into Class A Shares, that all earnings attributable to those shares are attributed to Evercore Inc. and that the Company is subject to the statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional corporate tax structure in the U.S. at prevailing corporate tax rates. The Company does not anticipate that the Class A, E, I and K LP Units will result in a dilutive computation in future periods.

(2)During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, certain shares of the Company's common stock assumed to be issued pursuant to non-vested RSUs, as calculated using the Treasury Stock Method, were antidilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders. The shares that would have been included in the treasury stock method calculation if the effect would have been dilutive were 3,080 and 1,775 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
(3)The Company has outstanding Class K-P units of Evercore LP ("Class K-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class K LP Units, and ultimately Class A Shares, as they are subject to certain performance thresholds being achieved. The Company also has certain outstanding RSUs which vest contingent upon certain performance thresholds being achieved. See Note 14 for further information. For the purposes of calculating diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders, these units are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding, as calculated using the Treasury Stock Method, as of the beginning of the period in which all necessary performance conditions have been satisfied. If all necessary performance conditions have not been satisfied by the end of the period, the number of shares that are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding is based on the number of shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the performance period.
The shares of Class B common stock have no right to receive dividends or a distribution on liquidation or winding up of the Company. The shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings of the Company and no earnings are allocable to such class. Accordingly, basic and diluted net income per share of Class B common stock have not been presented.

Contingencies
In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company and its affiliates are involved in judicial or regulatory proceedings, arbitration or mediation concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its businesses, including contractual and employment matters. In addition, United Kingdom, German, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canadian, Dubai and United States government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, as well as state securities commissions in the United States, conduct periodic examinations and initiate administrative proceedings regarding the Company's business, including, among other matters, accounting and operational matters, that can result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, investment advisor, or its directors, officers or employees. In view of the inherent difficulty of determining whether any loss in connection with such matters is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated, particularly in cases where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages or where investigations and proceedings are in the early stages, the Company cannot estimate the amount of such loss or range of loss, if any, related to such matters, how or if such matters will be resolved, when they will ultimately be resolved, or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, might be. Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that it is not currently party to any material pending proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, the resolution of which would have a material effect on the Company. Provisions for losses are established in accordance with ASC 450, "Contingencies" ("ASC 450") when warranted. Once established, such provisions are adjusted when there is more information available or when an event occurs requiring a change.

The effective tax rate reflects the recognition of net excess tax benefits associated with appreciation in the Company's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price of $30,930 and $13,809 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which resulted in a reduction in the effective tax rate of 15.7 and 8.2 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2024 and 2023 also reflects the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class K-P Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.

Key Financial Measures
Revenue
Total revenues reflect revenues from our Investment Banking & Equities and Investment Management business segments that include fees for services, transaction-related client reimbursements and other revenue. Net revenues reflect total revenues less interest expense.
Investment Banking & Equities. Our Investment Banking & Equities segment earns fees from its clients for providing advice on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, capital raising, leveraged buyouts, liability management and restructurings, private funds advisory and private capital markets services, activism and defense and similar corporate finance matters, and from underwriting and private placement activities, as well as commissions, fees and principal revenues from research and sales and trading activities. The amount and timing of the fees paid vary by the type of engagement or services provided. In general, advisory fees are paid at the time we sign an engagement letter, during the course of the engagement or when an engagement is completed. The majority of our revenue consists of advisory fees for which realizations are dependent on the successful completion of client transactions. A transaction can fail to be completed for many reasons which are outside of our control, including failure of parties to agree upon final terms with the counterparty, to secure necessary board or shareholder approvals, to secure necessary financing, to achieve necessary regulatory approvals, or due to adverse market conditions. In the case of bankruptcy engagements, fees may be subject to court approval. Underwriting fees are recognized when the offering has been deemed to be completed and placement fees are generally recognized at the time of the client's acceptance of capital or capital commitments. Commissions and Related Revenue includes commissions, which are recorded on a trade-date basis or, in the case of payments under commission sharing arrangements, on the date earned. Commissions and Related Revenue also includes subscription fees for the sales of research, as well as revenues from trades primarily executed on a riskless principal basis. Cash received before the subscription period ends is initially recorded as deferred revenue (a contract liability) and recognized as revenue over the remaining subscription period.
Revenue trends in our advisory business generally are correlated to the volume of merger and acquisitions ("M&A") activity, restructuring activity, which generally tends to be counter-cyclical to M&A, and capital advisory activity. Demand for these capabilities can vary in any given year or quarter for a number of reasons. For example, changes in our market share or the ability of our clients to close certain large transactions can cause our revenue results to diverge from the level of overall M&A, restructuring or capital advisory activity. Revenue trends in our equities business are correlated, in part, to market volumes, which generally decrease in periods of low market volatility or unfavorable market or economic conditions. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below for further information.
Investment Management. Our Investment Management segment includes operations related to the Wealth Management business and interests in private equity funds which we do not manage. Revenue sources primarily include management fees, fiduciary fees and gains (or losses) on our investments.
Management fees for third party clients generally represent a percentage of assets under management ("AUM"). Fiduciary fees, which are generally a function of the size and complexity of each engagement, are individually negotiated. Gains and losses include both realized and unrealized gains and losses on principal investments, including those arising from our equity interest in investment partnerships.
Transaction-Related Client Reimbursements. In our Investment Banking & Equities segment, we incur various transaction-related expenditures, such as travel and professional fees, in the course of performing our services. Pursuant to the engagement letters with our advisory clients, these expenditures may be reimbursable. We define these expenses, which are associated with revenue activities earned over time, as transaction-related expenses and record such expenditures as incurred and record revenue when it is determined that clients have an obligation to reimburse us for such transaction-related expenses. Client expense reimbursements are recorded as revenue on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations on the later of the date an engagement letter is executed or the date we pay or accrue the expense.
Other Revenue and Interest Expense. Other Revenue includes the following:
•Interest income, including accretion, and income (losses) on investment securities, including our investment funds (which are used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program), certificates of deposit, cash and cash equivalents and long-term accounts receivable
•Gains (losses) resulting from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and foreign currency exchange forward contracts used as an economic hedge
•Realized and unrealized gains and losses on interests in private equity funds which we do not manage
•Adjustments to amounts due pursuant to our tax receivable agreement, subsequent to its initial establishment, related to changes in enacted tax rates
Interest Expense includes interest expense associated with our Notes Payable and lines of credit.
Operating Expenses
Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense. We include all payments for services rendered by our employees, as well as profits interests in our businesses that have been accounted for as compensation, in employee compensation and benefits expense.
We maintain compensation programs, including base salary, cash, deferred cash and equity bonus awards and benefits programs and manage compensation to estimates of competitive levels based on market conditions and performance. Our level of compensation, including deferred compensation, reflects our plan to maintain competitive compensation levels to retain key personnel, and it reflects the impact of newly-hired senior professionals upon their start date, including related grants of equity and other awards, which are generally valued at their grant date and recorded in employee compensation and benefits expense over the requisite service period.
Increasing the number of high-caliber, experienced senior level employees is critical to our growth efforts. In our advisory businesses, these hires, which begin their service throughout any given year, generally do not begin to generate significant revenue in the year they are hired.
Our annual compensation program includes share-based compensation awards and deferred cash awards as a component of the annual bonus awards for certain employees. These awards, the amount granted of which is a function of performance and market conditions, are generally subject to annual vesting requirements over a four-year period beginning at the date of grant, which occurs in the first quarter of each year; accordingly, the expense is generally amortized over the stated vesting period, subject to retirement eligibility. With respect to annual awards, our retirement eligibility criteria generally stipulates that an employee is eligible for retirement if the employee has at least five years of continuous service, is at least 55 years of age and has a combined age and years of service of at least 65 years, or if an employee has at least 10 years of continuous service and is at least 60 years of age. Retirement eligibility allows for continued vesting of awards after employees depart from the Company, provided they give the minimum advance notice, which is generally six months to one year and comply with certain post-termination obligations.
We estimate forfeitures in the aggregate compensation cost to be amortized over the requisite service period of the awards. We periodically monitor our estimated forfeiture rate and adjust our assumptions to the actual occurrence of forfeited awards. A change in estimated forfeitures is recognized through a cumulative adjustment in the period of the change.
In January 2022, 2023 and 2024, our Board of Directors approved the issuance of Class L Interests to certain of our named executive officers, pursuant to which the named executive officers receive a discretionary distribution of profits from Evercore LP, paid in the first quarters of 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively. Distributions pursuant to these interests are made in lieu of any cash incentive compensation payments which may otherwise have been made to our named executive officers in respect of their service for 2022, 2023 and 2024, respectively. Following the distributions, the Class L Interests are cancelled pursuant to their terms. We record expense equal to the amount of these distributions in Employee Compensation and Benefits on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and reflect accrued liabilities in Accrued Compensation and Benefits on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Our Long-term Incentive Plans provide for incentive compensation awards to Advisory Senior Managing Directors, excluding executive officers, who exceed defined benchmark results over four-year performance periods beginning January 1, 2017 (which ended on December 31, 2020), pursuant to the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan, and January 1, 2021, pursuant to the 2021 Long-term Incentive Plan. The vesting period for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan ended on March 15, 2023 and in conjunction with this plan we made cash distributions in 2023, 2022 and 2021. Amounts accrued pursuant to the 2021 Long-term Incentive Plan may be paid, in cash or Class A Shares, at our discretion, in the first quarter of 2025, 2026 and 2027, subject to employment at the time of payment. We periodically assess the probability of the benchmarks being achieved and expense the probable payout over the requisite service period of the award.
From time to time, we also grant incentive awards to certain individuals which include both performance and service-based vesting requirements and, in certain awards, market based requirements. These include Class K-P Units issued by Evercore LP and certain RSU awards. See Note 14 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
We believe that the ratio of Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense to Net Revenues is an important measure to assess the annual cost of compensation relative to performance and provides a meaningful basis for comparison of compensation and benefits expense between present, historical and future years.
Non-Compensation Expenses. Our other operating expenses include costs for occupancy and equipment rental, professional fees, travel and related expenses, communications and information technology services, depreciation and amortization, execution, clearing and custody fees and other operating expenses. We refer to all of these expenses as non-compensation expenses.
Other Expenses
Other Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 include Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, related to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of our operations in Mexico.
Income from Equity Method Investments
Our share of the income (loss) from our equity interests in ABS, Atalanta Sosnoff, Luminis and Seneca Evercore are included within Income from Equity Method Investments, as a component of Income Before Income Taxes, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Provision for Income Taxes
We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes", which requires the recognition of tax benefits or expenses on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of our assets and liabilities. Excess tax benefits and deficiencies associated with the appreciation or depreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price are recognized in our Provision for Income Taxes. In addition, net deferred tax assets are impacted by changes to statutory tax rates in the period of enactment. See Note 17 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Noncontrolling Interest
We record noncontrolling interest relating to the ownership interests of certain of our current and former Senior Managing Directors and other officers and their estate planning vehicles in Evercore LP, as well as the portions of our operating subsidiaries not owned by Evercore. Evercore Inc. is the sole general partner of Evercore LP and has a majority economic interest in Evercore LP. As a result, Evercore Inc. consolidates Evercore LP and records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in Evercore LP held by the limited partners.
We generally allocate net income or loss to participating noncontrolling interests held at Evercore LP and at the operating entity level, where required, by multiplying the relative ownership interest of the noncontrolling interest holders for the period by the net income or loss of the entity to which the noncontrolling interest relates. In circumstances where the governing documents of the entity to which the noncontrolling interest relates require special allocations of profits or losses to the controlling and noncontrolling interest holders, the net income or loss of these entities is allocated based on these special allocations. See Note 12 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 versus June 30, 2023
Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. was $73.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $36.6 million, or 98%, compared to $37.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The changes in our operating results during these periods are described below.
Net Revenues were $689.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $189.8 million, or 38%, versus Net Revenues of $499.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Advisory Fees increased $193.7 million, or 52%, Underwriting Fees decreased $7.2 million, or 19%, and Commissions and Related Revenue increased $3.2 million, or 6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Asset Management and Administration Fees increased $2.6 million, or
16%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. See "Business Segments" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below for further information.
Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, decreased $2.4 million, or 10%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily reflecting lower gains on our investment funds portfolio, partially offset by higher interest income. The investment funds portfolio is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program.
Total Operating Expenses were $581.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $441.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $139.3 million, or 32%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $459.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $120.6 million, or 36%, versus expense of $338.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2024 principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher compensation expense related to senior new hires. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $122.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $18.7 million, or 18%, versus $103.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in other operating expenses. Non-Compensation expenses per employee were approximately $53.6 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024, versus $47.2 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
As a result of the factors noted above, Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense as a percentage of Net Revenues was 66.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 67.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Income from Equity Method Investments was $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily reflecting higher earnings from Atalanta Sosnoff in the second quarter of 2024. See Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $28.4 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 25.8%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $17.1 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 28.9%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 reflects the net impact associated with the appreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price of $1.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest was $8.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest primarily reflects higher income at Evercore LP during the three months ended June 30, 2024. See Note 12 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 versus June 30, 2023
Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. was $159.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $38.9 million, or 32%, compared to $120.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The changes in our operating results during these periods are described below.
Net Revenues were $1.27 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $198.5 million, or 19%, versus Net Revenues of $1.07 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Advisory Fees increased $161.0 million, or 19%, Underwriting Fees increased $25.5 million, or 42%, and Commissions and Related Revenue increased $3.3 million, or 3%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Asset Management and Administration Fees increased $5.4 million, or 16%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. See "Business Segments" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below for further information.
Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, increased $3.4 million, or 7%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, principally reflecting higher interest income.
Total Operating Expenses were $1.08 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $904.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $173.7 million, or 19%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $846.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $141.4 million, or 20%, versus expense of $705.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2024 principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher compensation expense related to senior new hires. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of
Operating Expenses, were $231.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $32.2 million, or 16%, versus $198.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in communications and information services, principally reflecting higher license fees and research services in 2024. Non-Compensation expenses per employee were approximately $102.7 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2024, versus $91.8 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Other Expenses of $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 reflected Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, related to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of our operations in Mexico.
As a result of the factors noted above, Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense as a percentage of Net Revenues was 66.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 65.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Income from Equity Method Investments was $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting higher earnings from Atalanta Sosnoff, Luminis and Seneca Evercore in 2024. See Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $21.7 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 11.0%. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $33.2 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 19.8%. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 reflects the net impact associated with the appreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price of $30.9 million and $13.8 million, respectively, which resulted in a reduction in the effective tax rate of 15.7 and 8.2 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest was $15.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest reflects higher income at EWM and Evercore LP during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Investment Banking & Equities Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 versus June 30, 2023
Net Revenues were $670.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $482.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $187.8 million, or 39%. The increase in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by an increase of $193.7 million, or 52%, in Advisory Fees, reflecting an increase in revenue earned from large transactions and an increase in the number of advisory fees earned during the second quarter of 2024. Underwriting Fees decreased $7.2 million, or 19%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting a decrease in the dollar amount of transactions we participated in during the second quarter of 2024. Commissions and Related Revenue increased $3.2 million, or 6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily reflecting higher subscription fees and trading commissions. Other Revenue, net, decreased $1.9 million, or 10%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily reflecting lower gains on our investment funds portfolio, partially offset by higher interest income. The investment funds portfolio is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program.
Operating Expenses were $566.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $428.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $138.0 million, or 32%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $448.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $328.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $119.6 million, or 36%. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2024 principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher compensation expense related to senior new hires. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $118.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $99.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $18.5 million, or 19%. Non-compensation operating expenses increased from the prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in other operating expenses.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 versus June 30, 2023
Net Revenues were $1.23 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.04 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $194.7 million, or 19%. The increase in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by an increase of $161.0 million, or 19%, in Advisory Fees, reflecting an increase in revenue earned from large transactions and an increase in the number of advisory fees earned during 2024. Underwriting Fees increased $25.5 million, or 42%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting an increase in the number of transactions we participated in during 2024. Commissions and Related Revenue increased $3.3 million, or 3%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily reflecting higher subscription fees and trading commissions. Other Revenue, net, increased $5.0 million, or 12%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, principally reflecting higher interest income.
Operating Expenses were $1.05 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $877.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $171.8 million, or 20%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $825.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $685.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $139.9 million, or 20%. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2024 principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher compensation expense related to senior new hires. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $223.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $191.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $32.0 million, or 17%. Non-compensation operating expenses increased from the prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in communications and information services, principally reflecting higher license fees and research services in 2024.
Other Expenses of $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 reflected Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, related to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of our operations in Mexico.

Investment Management Results of Operations
Our Investment Management segment includes the following:
•Wealth Management – conducted through EWM and ETC. Fee-based revenues from EWM are primarily earned on a percentage of AUM, while ETC primarily earns fees from negotiated trust services.
•Private Equity – conducted through our investment interests in private equity funds. We maintain a limited partner's interest in Glisco II, Glisco III and Glisco IV (together the "Glisco Funds"), as well as Glisco Manager Holdings LP and the general partners of the Glisco Funds. We receive our portion of the management fees earned by Glisco Partners Inc. ("Glisco") from Glisco Manager Holdings LP. We are passive investors and do not participate in the management of any Glisco sponsored funds. We are also passive investors in Trilantic IV and Trilantic V. In the event the private equity funds perform below certain thresholds, we may be obligated to repay certain carried interest previously distributed. As of June 30, 2024, $0.1 million of previously distributed carried interest received from the funds was subject to repayment.
•We also hold interests in ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The results of these investments are included within Income from Equity Method Investments. In July 2024, we sold the remaining portion of our interest in ABS. See Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Assets Under Management
AUM in our Wealth Management business of $13.2 billion at June 30, 2024 increased $0.9 billion, or 7%, compared to $12.3 billion at December 31, 2023. The amounts of AUM presented in the table below reflect the fair value of assets which we manage on behalf of Wealth Management clients. As defined in ASC 820, valuations performed for Level 1 investments are based on quoted prices obtained from active markets generated by third parties and Level 2 investments are valued through the use of models based on either direct or indirect observable inputs or other valuation methodologies performed by third parties to determine fair value. For both the Level 1 and Level 2 investments, we obtain both active quotes from nationally recognized exchanges and third-party pricing services to determine market or fair value quotes, respectively. For Level 3 investments, pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Wealth Management maintained 77% and 76% of Level 1 investments, 19% and 20% of Level 2 investments and 4% and 4% of Level 3 investments as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The fees that we receive for providing investment advisory and management services are primarily driven by the level and composition of AUM. Accordingly, client flows, market movements, and changes in our product mix will impact the level of
management fees we receive from our Wealth Management business. Fees vary with the type of assets managed and the channel in which they are managed, with higher fees earned on equity assets and alternative investment funds, such as hedge funds and private equity funds, and lower fees earned on fixed income and cash management products. Clients will increase or reduce the aggregate amount of AUM that we manage for a number of reasons, including changes in the level of assets that they have available for investment purposes, their overall asset allocation strategy, our relative performance versus competitors offering similar investment products and the quality of our service. The fees we earn are also impacted by our investment performance, as the appreciation or depreciation in the value of the assets that we manage directly impacts our fees.

Cash Flows
Our operating cash flows are primarily influenced by the timing and receipt of fees and the payment of operating expenses, including incentive compensation to our employees and interest expense on our Notes Payable and lines of credit, and the payment of income taxes. Advisory and Underwriting fees are generally collected within 90 days of invoice. Placement fees are generally collected within 180 days of invoice and a portion of certain fees primarily related to private funds capital raising and the private capital businesses may be collected in a period exceeding one year. Commissions earned from our agency trading activities are generally received from our clearing broker within 11 days. Fees from our Wealth Management business are generally invoiced and collected within 90 days. We traditionally pay a substantial portion of incentive compensation during the first three months of each calendar year with respect to the prior year's results and prior years' deferred compensation. Likewise, payments to fund investments related to hedging our deferred cash compensation plans are generally funded in the first three months of each calendar year. Our investing and financing cash flows are primarily influenced by activities to invest our cash in highly liquid securities or bank certificates of deposit, deploy capital to fund investments and acquisitions, raise capital through the issuance of stock or debt, repurchase of outstanding Class A Shares (including for the net settlement of RSUs), and/or noncontrolling interest in Evercore LP, as well as our other subsidiaries, payment of dividends and other periodic distributions to our stakeholders. We generally make dividend payments and other distributions on a quarterly basis. If required, we may periodically draw down on our lines of credit to balance the timing of our operating, investing and financing cash flow needs. A summary of our operating, investing and financing cash flows is as follows:

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash were $640.5 million at June 30, 2024, an increase of $35.0 million versus Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash of $605.5 million at December 31, 2023. Operating activities resulted in a net inflow of $67.3 million, primarily related to earnings, partially offset by the payment of 2023 bonus awards and deferred cash compensation, which contributed to a decrease to Accrued Compensation and Benefits on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2024. Cash of $383.8 million was provided by investing activities, primarily related to net proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, partially offset by net purchases of certificates of deposit and purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements. Financing activities during the period used cash of $411.0 million, primarily for purchases of treasury stock (including for the net settlement of RSUs) and noncontrolling interests, the payment of dividends and distributions made to noncontrolling interest holders. Cash is also impacted due to the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuation when translating non-U.S. currencies to U.S. Dollars.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash were $529.5 million at June 30, 2023, a decrease of $142.6 million versus Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash of $672.1 million at December 31, 2022. Operating activities resulted in a net outflow of $205.5 million, primarily related to the payment of 2022 bonus awards and deferred cash compensation, which contributed to a decrease to Accrued Compensation and Benefits on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2023, partially offset by earnings. Cash of $480.4 million was provided by investing activities, primarily related to net proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities and certificates of deposit, partially offset by purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements. Financing activities during the period used cash of $433.5 million, primarily for purchases of treasury stock (including for net settlement of RSUs) and noncontrolling interests, and dividends and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders. Cash is also impacted due to the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuation when translating non-U.S. currencies to U.S. Dollars.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
Our current assets principally include Cash and Cash Equivalents, Investment Securities and Certificates of Deposit, Accounts Receivable and contract assets, included in Other Current Assets, relating to revenues from our Investment Banking & Equities and Investment Management segments. Our current liabilities principally include accrued expenses, accrued liabilities, accrued employee compensation and short-term borrowings. We traditionally have made payments for employee bonus awards and year-end distributions to partners in the first quarter of the year with respect to the prior year's results. In addition, payments in respect of deferred cash compensation arrangements and related investments are also made in the first quarter. From time to time, advances and/or commitments may also be granted to new employees at or near the date they begin employment, or to existing employees for the purpose of incentive or retention. Cash distributions related to partnership tax allocations are made to the partners of Evercore LP and certain other entities in accordance with our corporate estimated
payment calendar; these payments are generally made quarterly. In addition, dividends on Class A Shares, and related distributions to partners of Evercore LP, are paid when and if declared by the Board of Directors, which is generally quarterly.
We regularly monitor our liquidity position, including cash, other significant working capital, current assets and liabilities, long-term liabilities, lease commitments and related fixed assets, principal investment commitments related to our Investment Management business, dividends on Class A Shares, partnership distributions and other capital transactions, as well as other matters relating to liquidity and compliance with capital requirements and restrictions of our regulated legal entities. Our liquidity is highly dependent on our revenue stream from our operations, principally from our Investment Banking & Equities segment, which is primarily a function of closing client transactions and earning success fees, the timing and realization of which is irregular and dependent upon factors that are not subject to our control. Our revenue stream funds the payment of our expenses, including annual bonus payments, a portion of which are guaranteed, deferred compensation arrangements, interest expense on our Notes Payable, lines of credit and other financing arrangements, as well as payments for income taxes. Payments made for income taxes may be reduced by deductions taken for the increase in tax basis of our investment in Evercore LP. Certain of these tax deductions, when realized, require payment under our long-term liability, Amounts Due Pursuant to Tax Receivable Agreements. We intend to fund these payments from cash and cash equivalents on hand, principally derived from cash flows from operations. These tax deductions, when realized, will result in cash otherwise required to satisfy tax obligations becoming available for other purposes. Our Management Committee meets regularly to monitor our liquidity and cash positions against our short and long-term obligations, as well as our capital requirements and commitments, including deferred compensation arrangements. The result of this review contributes to management's recommendation to the Board of Directors as to the level of quarterly dividend payments, if any.
As a financial services firm, our businesses are materially affected by conditions in the global financial markets and economic conditions throughout the world. Revenue generated by our advisory activities is related to the number and value of the transactions in which we are involved. In addition, revenue related to our equities business is driven by market volumes and institutional investor trends, such as the trend to passive investment strategies. During periods of unfavorable market or economic conditions - which may result from the current or anticipated impact of inflation, changes in the level of interest rates, changes in the availability of financing, supply chain disruptions, an evolving regulatory environment, climate change, extreme weather events or natural disasters, the emergence or continuation of widespread health emergencies or pandemics, cyberattacks or campaigns, military conflict, including escalating international tensions, terrorism or other geopolitical events - the number and value of M&A transactions, as well as market volumes in equities, generally decrease, and they generally increase during periods of favorable market or economic conditions. Restructuring activity generally is counter-cyclical to M&A activity. In addition, during periods of unfavorable market conditions our Investment Management business may be impacted by reduced equity valuations and generate relatively lower revenue because fees we receive, either directly or through our affiliates, typically are in part based on the market value of underlying publicly-traded securities. Our profitability may also be adversely affected by our fixed costs and the possibility that we would be unable to scale back other costs within a time frame, and in an amount sufficient, to match any decreases in revenue relating to changes in market and economic conditions. Likewise, our liquidity may be adversely impacted by our contractual obligations, including lease obligations. Reduced equity valuations resulting from future adverse economic events and/or market conditions may impact our performance and may result in future net redemptions of AUM from our Investment Management clients, which would generally result in lower revenues and cash flows. These adverse conditions could also have an impact on our goodwill impairment assessment, which is done annually, as of November 30th, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred.
We remain in a period of macroeconomic uncertainty, elevated interest rates and heightened geopolitical tensions, including escalating military tensions and evolving regulatory and banking environments. These factors have contributed to an elongation of the timing of transaction closings. We will continue to assess the potential ongoing impacts of the current environment, including the regular monitoring of our cash levels, liquidity, regulatory capital requirements, debt covenants and our other contractual obligations. See "Results of Operations" above for further information.
We assess each of our equity method investments for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. These circumstances could include unfavorable market conditions or the loss of key personnel of the investee.
For a further discussion of risks related to our business, refer to Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Treasury Purchases
We periodically repurchase Class A Shares and/or LP Units into Treasury (including through the net settlement of equity awards) in order to offset the dilutive effect of equity awards granted as compensation (see Note 14 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information), or amounts in excess of that if management's review, discussed above, determines adequate cash is available. The amount of cash required for these share repurchases is a function of the mix of equity and deferred cash compensation awarded for the annual bonus awards (see further discussion on deferred compensation under Other Commitments below). In addition, we may, from time to time, purchase noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries.
On February 22, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized (in addition to the net settlement of equity awards) the repurchase of Class A Shares and/or LP Units so that from that date forward, we are able to repurchase an aggregate of the lesser of $1.4 billion worth of Class A Shares and/or LP Units and 10.0 million Class A Shares and/or LP Units. Under this share repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual amount of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including our liquidity position, legal requirements, price, economic and market conditions and the objective to reduce the dilutive effect of equity awards granted as compensation to employees. This program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased 821,788 Class A Shares, at an average cost per share of $180.87, for $148.6 million, pursuant to our repurchase program.
In addition, we periodically buy shares into treasury from our employees in order to allow them to satisfy their minimum tax requirements for share deliveries under our share equity plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased 955,744 Class A Shares, at an average cost per share of $176.67, for $168.9 million, primarily related to minimum tax withholding requirements of share deliveries.
The aggregate 1,777,532 Class A Shares repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2024 were acquired for aggregate purchase consideration of $317.5 million, at an average cost per share of $178.61.
Noncontrolling Interest Purchases
During the second quarter of 2024, we purchased, at fair value, an additional 0.3% of the EWM Class A Units for $1.0 million. This purchase resulted in a decrease to Noncontrolling Interest of $0.1 million and a decrease to Additional-Paid-In-Capital of $1.0 million on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2024.
During the second quarter of 2023, we purchased, at fair value, an additional 0.7% of the EWM Class A Units for $2.0 million. This purchase resulted in a decrease to Noncontrolling Interest of $0.2 million and a decrease to Additional-Paid-In-Capital of $1.8 million on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2023.
On December 31, 2021, we purchased, at fair value, all of the outstanding Class R Interests of Private Capital Advisory L.P. from employees of the RECA business. See Note 12 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Private Placement Notes
On March 30, 2016, we issued an aggregate $170.0 million of senior notes, including: $38.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.88% Series A Notes which were due March 30, 2021, $67.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.23% Series B Notes which were originally due March 30, 2023, $48.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.48% Series C Notes and $17.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.58% Series D Notes, pursuant to the 2016 Note Purchase Agreement, among the Company and the purchasers party thereto in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
On August 1, 2019, we issued $175.0 million and £25.0 million of senior unsecured notes through private placement. These notes reflect a weighted average life of 12 years and a weighted average stated interest rate of 4.26%. These notes include: $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.34% Series E Notes, $60.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.44% Series F Notes, $40.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.54% Series G Notes and £25.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.33% Series H Notes, each of which were issued pursuant to the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement, among the Company and the purchasers party thereto in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
On March 29, 2021, we issued $38.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 1.97% Series I Notes, pursuant to the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, among the Company and the purchasers party thereto in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
On June 28, 2022, we issued $67.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.61% Series J Notes, pursuant to the 2022 Note Purchase Agreement, among the Company and the purchasers party thereto in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
Interest on the above issuances is payable semi-annually and the notes are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. We may, at our option, prepay all, or from time to time any part of, the notes (without regard to Series), in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of each of the individual issuances then outstanding at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus an applicable "make-whole amount." Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the holders of the notes will have the right to require us to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The respective Note Purchase Agreements contain customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum interest coverage ratio (for the 2016 Private Placement Notes only), and customary events of default. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.
Lines of Credit
East entered into a revolving credit facility with PNC, as amended on June 29, 2023, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. This facility is secured by East's accounts receivable and the proceeds therefrom, as well as certain assets of EGL, including certain of EGL's accounts receivable. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting covenants, as well as certain debt covenants that prohibit East and us from incurring other indebtedness, subject to specified exceptions. We and our consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2024. The interest rate provisions are Daily SOFR plus 161 basis points and the maturity date is October 27, 2024. There were no drawings under this facility at June 30, 2024.
East entered into an additional revolving credit facility with PNC, as amended on June 29, 2023, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $55.0 million to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. This facility is unsecured. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting requirements and debt covenants consistent with the Existing PNC Facility. We and our consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2024. Drawings under this facility bear interest at Daily SOFR plus 191 basis points and the maturity date is October 27, 2024. East is only permitted to borrow under this facility if there is no undrawn availability under the Existing PNC Facility and must repay indebtedness under this facility prior to repaying indebtedness under the Existing PNC Facility. There were no drawings under this facility at June 30, 2024.
EGL entered into a subordinated revolving credit facility with PNC, as amended on November 6, 2023, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $75.0 million, to be used as needed in support of capital requirements from time to time of EGL. This facility is unsecured and is guaranteed by Evercore LP and other affiliates, pursuant to a guaranty agreement, which provides for certain reporting requirements and debt covenants consistent with the Existing PNC Facility. The interest rate provisions are Daily SOFR plus 191 basis points and the maturity date is October 28, 2025. There were no drawings under this facility at June 30, 2024.
In addition, EGL's clearing broker provides temporary funding for the settlement of securities transactions.
Other Commitments
We have long-term obligations for operating lease commitments, principally related to office space, which expire on various dates through 2035. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for anticipated current and future payments under these arrangements.
We have a long-term liability, Amounts Due Pursuant to Tax Receivable Agreements, which requires payments to certain current and former Senior Managing Directors.
Pursuant to deferred compensation and deferred consideration arrangements, we expect to make cash payments in future periods, including related to our Long-term Incentive Plans, Deferred Cash Compensation Program and other deferred compensation arrangements. Further, we make investments to hedge the economic risk of amounts due under our Deferred
Cash Compensation Program. For further information, including timing of payments, see Notes 6 and 14 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Certain of our subsidiaries are regulated entities and are subject to capital requirements. For further information see Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
We had total commitments (not reflected on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition) relating to future capital contributions to private equity funds of $2.6 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. We may be required to fund these commitments at any time through June 2028, depending on the timing and level of investments by our private equity funds. We expect to fund these commitments with cash flows from operations. See Note 15 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
We do not invest in any off-balance sheet vehicles that provide liquidity, capital resources, market or credit risk support, or engage in any leasing activities that expose us to any liability that is not reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
As of June 30, 2024, our current and former Senior Managing Directors owned an aggregate of approximately 1.6 million vested Class A LP Units, 0.3 million vested Class E LP Units, 0.4 million vested Class I LP Units and 0.2 million vested Class K LP Units. In addition, 1.1 million unvested Class K-P Units, which convert into a number of Class K LP Units based on the achievement of certain market and service conditions and defined benchmark results, were outstanding as of June 30, 2024. We have an obligation to exchange vested Class A, E, I and K LP Units to Class A Common Stock upon the request of the holder.
Our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2024 included $631.6 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents and $1.06 billion of Investment Securities and Certificates of Deposit, which are generally comprised of highly-liquid investments. For further information regarding other cash commitments and the timing of payments, refer to "General" above.
Market Risk and Credit Risk
We, in general, are not a capital-intensive organization and as such, are not subject to significant market or credit risks. Nevertheless, we have established procedures to assess both the market and credit risk, as well as specific investment risk, exchange rate risk and credit risk related to receivables.
Market and Investment Risk
We hold equity securities and invest in exchange-traded funds principally as an economic hedge against our deferred compensation program. As of June 30, 2024, the fair value of our investments with these products, based on closing prices, was $165.2 million. We had net realized and unrealized gains of $6.2 million and $21.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, from our exchange-traded funds portfolio. See Note 6 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
We estimate that a hypothetical 10%, 20% and 30% adverse change in the market value of the investments would have resulted in a decrease in pre-tax income of approximately $16.5 million, $33.0 million and $49.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Private Equity Funds
Through our principal investments in private equity funds and our ability to earn carried interest from these funds, we face exposure to changes in the estimated fair value of the companies in which these funds invest. Valuations and analysis regarding our investments in Trilantic and Glisco are performed by their respective professionals, and thus we are not involved in determining the fair value for the portfolio companies of such funds. See Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the value of the private equity funds would have resulted in a decrease in pre-tax income of approximately $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Exchange Rate Risk
We have foreign operations, through our subsidiaries and affiliates, primarily in Europe and Asia, as well as provide services to clients in other jurisdictions, which creates foreign exchange rate risk. We have not entered into any transactions to
hedge our exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations in these subsidiaries through the use of derivative instruments or otherwise. An appreciation or depreciation of any of these currencies relative to the U.S. dollar would result in an adverse or beneficial impact to our financial results. A significant portion of our non-U.S. revenues and expenses have been, and will continue to be, derived from contracts denominated in foreign currencies (i.e. British Pounds sterling, Euros, Singapore dollars, among others). Historically, the value of these foreign currencies has fluctuated relative to the U.S. dollar. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the net impact of the fluctuation of foreign currencies recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) within the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income was a loss of $4.3 million, net of tax. It is generally not our intention to hedge our foreign currency exposure in these subsidiaries, and we will reevaluate this policy from time to time.
Periodically, we enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts as an economic hedge against exchange rate risk for foreign currency denominated accounts receivable or other commitments. We entered into a foreign currency exchange forward contract during the first quarter of 2023 to buy 30.0 million British Pounds sterling for $36.9 million, which settled during the third quarter of 2023, and resulted in a loss of $0.3 million. Upon settlement, we entered into a new foreign currency exchange forward contract to buy 30.0 million British Pounds sterling for $36.7 million, which settled during the first quarter of 2024, and resulted in a loss of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The contract was recorded at its fair value of $1.6 million as of December 31, 2023, and was included within Other Current Assets on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
Credit Risks
We maintain cash and cash equivalents, as well as certificates of deposit, with financial institutions with high credit ratings. At times, we may maintain deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured ("FDIC") limits or enter into sweep arrangements where banks will periodically transfer a portion of our excess cash position to a money market fund. However, we believe that we are not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions or investment vehicles in which those deposits are held.
Accounts Receivable consists primarily of advisory fees and expense reimbursements billed to our clients. Other Assets includes long-term receivables primarily from fees related to private funds capital raising and certain fees related to the private capital businesses. Receivables are reported net of any allowance for credit losses. We maintain an allowance for credit losses to provide coverage for probable losses from our customer receivables and determine the adequacy of the allowance by estimating the probability of loss based on our analysis of historical credit loss experience of our client receivables, and taking into consideration current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Our receivables collection periods generally are within 90 days of invoice, with the exception of placement fees, which are generally collected within 180 days of invoice, and certain fees related to private funds capital raising and the private capital businesses, a portion of which may be collected in a period exceeding one year. The collection period for restructuring transaction receivables may exceed 90 days. We recorded bad debt expense of $1.0 million and $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, total receivables recorded in Accounts Receivable amounted to $361.1 million and $371.6 million, respectively, net of an allowance for credit losses, and total receivables recorded in Other Assets amounted to $87.1 million and $93.7 million, respectively.
Other Current Assets and Other Assets include arrangements in which an estimate of variable consideration has been included in the transaction price and thereby recognized as revenue that precedes the contractual due date (contract assets). As of June 30, 2024, total contract assets recorded in Other Current Assets and Other Assets amounted to $61.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, total contract assets recorded in Other Current Assets and Other Assets amounted to $85.4 million and $5.8 million, respectively.
With respect to our Investment Securities portfolio, which is comprised primarily of treasury bills and notes, exchange-traded funds and securities investments, we manage our credit risk exposure by limiting concentration risk and maintaining investment grade credit quality. As of June 30, 2024, we had Investment Securities of $944.5 million, of which 83% were treasury bills and notes.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions regarding future events that affect the amounts reported
in our consolidated financial statements and their notes, including reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
For a discussion of other recently issued accounting standards and their impact or potential impact on our consolidated financial statements, see Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Market Risk and Credit Risk." We do not believe we face any material interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, equity price risk or other market risk except as disclosed in Item 2 " – Market Risk and Credit Risk" above.
| | | | | |
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
We have not made any changes during the three months ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act).
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company and its affiliates are involved in judicial or regulatory proceedings, arbitration or mediation concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its businesses, including contractual and employment matters. In addition, United Kingdom, German, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canadian, Dubai and United States government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, as well as state securities commissions in the United States, conduct periodic examinations and initiate administrative proceedings regarding the Company's business, including, among other matters, accounting and operational matters, that can result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, investment advisor, or its directors, officers or employees. In view of the inherent difficulty of determining whether any loss in connection with such matters is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated, particularly in cases where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages or where investigations and proceedings are in the early stages, the Company cannot estimate the amount of such loss or range of loss, if any, related to such matters, how or if such matters will be resolved, when they will ultimately be resolved, or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, might be. Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that it is not currently party to any material pending proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, the resolution of which would have a material effect on the Company. Provisions for losses are established in accordance with ASC 450 when warranted. Once established, such provisions are adjusted when there is more information available or when an event occurs requiring a change.

(1)Includes the repurchase of 933,601 and 22,143 shares in treasury transactions arising from net settlement of equity awards to satisfy minimum tax obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively.
(2)On February 22, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized (in addition to the net settlement of equity awards) the repurchase of Class A Shares and/or LP Units so that from that date forward, we are able to repurchase an aggregate of the lesser of $1.4 billion worth of Class A Shares and/or LP Units and 10.0 million Class A Shares and/or LP Units. Under this share repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual amount of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. This program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date.
