NEW YORK, February 9, 2016 — Moelis & Company (“we” or the “Firm”) (NYSE: MC) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The Firm’s fourth quarter 2015 revenues of $174.8 million increased 21% over the same period in the prior year and represented our largest quarter of revenues since inception. Adjusted Pro Forma net income was $30.7 million or $0.55 per share (diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with $28.4 million of Adjusted Pro Forma net income or $0.51 per share (diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2014.

The Firm’s fiscal year ended 2015 revenues of $551.9 million represented an increase of 6% over fiscal year 2014 and its largest annual revenues on record. Adjusted Pro Forma net income for fiscal year 2015 was $91.9 million or $1.66 per share (diluted), as compared with $94.4 million or $1.72 per share (diluted) for the same period in the prior year.

On a GAAP basis, the Firm reported net income of $41.1 million or $0.50 per share (diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2015 and $122.6 million or $1.58 per share (diluted) for the full year. This compares to GAAP net income of $38.3 million or $0.52 per share (diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2014 and GAAP net income of $32.6 million and a net loss of $0.19 per share (diluted) for the period from the IPO closing on April 22, 2014 through December 31, 2014.

“Our record fourth quarter and full year revenues reflect the growth in our M&A related activity during the second half of the year and an active restructuring business. Our activity was well distributed across sectors and geographies which demonstrates the diversity of our franchise,” said Ken Moelis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

“Consistent with our capital-light model and focus on financial discipline, we generated significant free cash flow during the year. We are returning this capital to our shareholders with today’s announcement of an $0.80 per share special dividend in addition to our regular quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share. This will be our second special dividend since our IPO.”

“We also continue to invest in the Firm by recruiting and developing talent. We stand uniquely positioned with our ‘One-Firm’ model that encourages collaboration and allows us to integrate our advisory expertise to provide creative solutions to clients in both M&A and restructuring cycles and periods of market uncertainty.”

The Firm’s revenues and net income can fluctuate materially depending on the number, size and timing of completed transactions on which it advised 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.

Moelis & Company completed its IPO on April 22, 2014 and introduced a new corporate structure. Currently 37% of the operating partnership (Moelis & Company Group LP) is owned by the corporation (Moelis & Company) and is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax. The remaining 63% is owned by other partners of Moelis & Company Group LP and is primarily subject to tax at the partner level (except for certain state and local and foreign income taxes). The Adjusted Pro Forma results included herein remove the impact of adjustments to the Company’s Tax Receievable Agreement and compensation expenses specifically related to the Firm’s IPO awards, and apply the corporate tax rate to all earnings under the assumption that all outstanding Class A partnership units of Moelis & Company Group LP have been exchanged into Class A common stock of Moelis & Company. We believe the Adjusted Pro Forma results, when presented together with comparable GAAP results, are useful to investors to compare our performance across periods and to better understand our operating results. A reconciliation between our GAAP results and our Adjusted Pro Forma results is presented in the Appendix to this press release.

Revenues

We earned record revenues of $174.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, as compared with $143.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, representing an increase of 21%. The increase in revenues during the quarter resulted from an increase in average fees given the continued improvement in M&A and a more active restructuring environment.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, revenues were $551.9 million, as compared with $518.8 million in 2014, or an increase of 6%. This represents our largest year of revenues on record and compares favorably with a 5% decrease in the number of global completed M&A transactions in the same period.(1) The number of clients who paid fees equal to or greater than $1 million increased to 139 clients in 2015 from 130 clients in the same period of the prior year.

In early 2016, we promoted three of our advisory professionals to Managing Director: Erick Alberti (Brazil/Technology, Media and Telecommunications), Azad Badakhsh (US/Aerospace & Defense) and Apurva Mazumder (India/Regional Coverage).

Total operating expenses on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis were $124.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 as compared with $97.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. For the fiscal year ended 2015, Adjusted Pro Forma operating expenses were $403.3 million as compared with $361.1 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in operating expenses in 2015 is primarily attributable to an increase in headcount with the addition of 81 advisory professionals during the year. This headcount growth is reflected in larger compensation and benefits expenses and non-compensation expenses.

For the fourth quarter of 2015, compensation and benefits expenses on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis were $96.0 million, or 55% of revenues, which compares with $75.0 million, or 52% of revenues in the fourth quarter of 2014. Fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 compensation and

benefits expenses on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis were $303.0 million, or 55% of revenues, which compares with $271.0 million and 52% of revenues in fiscal year 2014. The increased compensation ratio is attributable to the additional tranche of equity awarded in early 2015 and the increase in headcount combined with modest revenue growth.

Adjusted Pro Forma non-compensation expenses were $28.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, or 16% of revenues, as compared with $22.1 million, or 15% of revenues for the same period of the prior year. The increase in the non-compensation expense ratio was primarily driven by increases in headcount and the timing of our annual client event, which was held during the fourth quarter of 2015 versus the third quarter of the prior year. Adjusted Pro Forma non-compensation expenses were $100.3 million in fiscal year 2015, as compared with $90.1 million in fiscal year 2014. Our 2015 Adjusted Pro Forma non-compensation expense ratio increased to 18% from 17% in fiscal year 2014, primarily driven by increases in headcount.

Provision for Income Taxes

Prior to our IPO, the Firm was not subject to federal income taxes, but was primarily subject to New York City unincorporated business tax and certain foreign income taxes. As a result of completing our IPO in April 2014, we have a new corporate structure and currently 37% of the operating partnership (Moelis & Company Group LP) is owned by the corporation (Moelis & Company) and is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax. Income tax on the remaining 63% continues to be subject to New York City unincorporated business tax and certain foreign income taxes and is accounted for at the partner level through the non-controlling interests line item. For Adjusted Pro Forma purposes, we have assumed all outstanding Class A partnership units of Moelis & Company Group LP have been exchanged into Class A common stock of Moelis & Company such that 100% of the Firm’s fourth quarter and full year 2015 income was taxed at our current corporate effective tax rate of 40.0%, versus a corporate effective tax rate of 40.5% for the fourth quarter and full year of 2014.

Capital Management and Balance Sheet

Moelis & Company continues to maintain a strong financial position and as of December 31, 2015, we held cash and short term investments of $286.0 million and had no debt or goodwill on our balance sheet.

On February 8, 2016, the Board of Directors of Moelis & Company declared a special dividend of $0.80 per share in addition to a regular quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share. The $1.10 per share will be paid on March 4, 2016 to common stockholders of record on February 19, 2016.

Including the dividend announced today, we will have returned $1.90 per share to investors through regular and special dividends with respect to the 2015 performance year, further demonstrating our strong cash flow generation and commitment to returning 100% of our excess capital to shareholders.

Earnings Call

We will host a conference call beginning at 5:00pm ET on Tuesday, February 9, 2016, accessible via telephone and the internet. Ken Moelis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Joe Simon, Chief Financial Officer, will review our fourth quarter and full year 2015 financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Pro Forma results are a non-GAAP measure which better reflect management’s view of operating results. We believe that the disclosed Adjusted Pro Forma measures and any adjustments thereto, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors to understand the Firm’s operating results by removing the significant accounting impact of one-time charges associated with the Firm’s IPO and assuming all Class A partnership units have been exchanged into Class A common stock. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP results to Adjusted Pro Forma results is presented in the Appendix.
