Total Revenues increased 3% to $207 million for first quarter 2021 from $200 million for the prior year quarter.
Advisory Revenues decreased 3% to $153 million for the current quarter from $157 million for the prior year quarter. The decrease was driven by a significant reduction in restructuring revenues, which was largely offset by an increase in strategic advisory revenues.
Placement Revenues increased 29% to $50 million for the current quarter from $39 million for the prior year quarter. The increase in Placement Revenues reflected a strong increase in fund placement activity.
Interest Income & Other decreased slightly to $4 million for the current quarter compared with $5 million for the prior year quarter.

Compensation and Benefits Expense
GAAP Compensation and Benefits Expense was $133 million for first quarter 2021 compared with $134 million for the prior year quarter. Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense decreased slightly to $129 million for the current quarter compared with $130 million for the prior year quarter. The Company expects to accrue compensation at a somewhat lower rate based on its current estimate of full year operating performance.
Non-Compensation Expense
GAAP Non-Compensation Expense was $30 million for first quarter 2021 compared with $33 million for the prior year quarter. Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense was $28 million for the current quarter compared with $31 million for the prior year quarter.
GAAP and Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense decreased during the current quarter compared with the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a decrease in Travel and Related and partially offset by an increase in Professional Fees. Travel and Related decreased due to reduced travel and entertainment activity. Professional Fees increased primarily due to higher consulting payments relating to the firm’s business activities and increased recruiting costs.
Provision for Taxes
As of March 31, 2021, PJT Partners Inc. owned 61.0% of PJT Partners Holdings LP. PJT Partners Inc. is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax while PJT Partners Holdings LP is subject to New York City unincorporated business tax and other entity-level taxes imposed by certain state and foreign jurisdictions. Please refer to Note 12. “Stockholders’ Equity” in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for further information about the corporate ownership structure. The effective tax rate for GAAP Net Income for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was 0.2%.
In calculating Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted, the Company has assumed that all outstanding Class A partnership units in PJT Partners Holdings LP (“Partnership Units”) (excluding the unvested partnership units that have yet to satisfy certain market conditions) have been exchanged into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, subjecting all of the Company’s income to corporate-level tax.
The effective tax rate for Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 22.2% compared with 24.8% for full year 2020. This tax rate excludes the tax benefits of the adjustments for transaction-related compensation expense, amortization expense, tax benefit recorded pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) as well as certain payments to The Blackstone Group Inc. (“Blackstone”) resulting from the October 1, 2015 spin-off.
Capital Management and Balance Sheet
As of March 31, 2021, the Company held cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $172.3 million, and had no funded debt.
On February 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock in an amount up to $150 million. As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s remaining repurchase authorization was $140.6 million.
During the first quarter 2021, the Company repurchased 680,368 Partnership Units for cash pursuant to the quarterly exchange program, 657,907 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program and net share settled 291,408 shares to satisfy employee tax obligations. During the first quarter 2021, the total share equivalent repurchases were 1.6 million shares at an average price of $70.43 per share.
The Company intends to repurchase 221,164 Partnership Units for cash on May 4, 2021 at a price to be determined by the volume-weighted average price per share of the Company’s Class A common stock on April 29, 2021.
Dividend
The Board of Directors of PJT Partners Inc. has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.05 per share of Class A common stock. The dividend will be paid on June 16, 2021 to Class A common stockholders of record on June 2, 2021.
COVID-19 Impact on Operations
The vast majority of the Company’s employees continue to work remotely, as they have since mid-March 2020. There have been no material changes to the Company’s internal controls as a result of this working environment. The Company has undertaken steps to allow employees to return to certain office locations on a voluntary basis, following safety protocols from health advisors and the respective governmental agencies. The Company is working toward a return to office later in the year but will continue operating in a remote work environment for the foreseeable future, if necessary.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain material presented herein contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include certain information concerning future results of operations, business strategies, acquisitions, financing plans, competitive position, potential growth opportunities, potential operating performance improvements, the effects of competition and the effects of future legislation or regulations. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believe,” “expect,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “could” or the negative of these terms or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict, many of which are outside our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance upon any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (a) changes in governmental regulations and policies; (b) the possibility of cyberattacks, security vulnerabilities, and internet disruptions, including breaches of data security and privacy leaks, data loss, and business interruptions; (c) the possibility of failure of our computer systems or communication systems during a catastrophic event, including as a result of the increased use of remote work environments and virtual platforms during the outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus); (d) the impact of catastrophic events, such as COVID-19, on the U.S. and the global economy, including business disruptions, reductions in employment and an increase in business failures; (e) the impact of catastrophic events, such as COVID-19, on our employees and our ability to provide services to our clients and respond to their needs; (f) the failure of third-party service providers to perform their functions; and (g) volatility in the political and economic environment.
Any of these factors, as well as such other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, could cause the Company’s results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. There may be other risks and uncertainties that the Company is unable to predict at this time or that are not currently expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. Any such risks could cause the Company’s results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following represent key performance measures that management uses in making resource allocation and/or compensation decisions. These measures should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes the following non-GAAP measures, when presented together with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors in understanding the Company’s operating results: Adjusted Pretax Income; Adjusted Net Income; Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted, in total and on a per-share basis (referred to as “Adjusted EPS”); Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense and Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense. These non-GAAP measures, presented and discussed in this earnings release, remove the significant accounting impact of: (a) transaction-related compensation expense, including expense related to Partnership Units with both time-based vesting and market conditions as well as equity-based and cash awards granted in connection with the spin-off from Blackstone and acquisition of CamberView Partners Holdings, LLC (“CamberView”); (b) intangible asset amortization associated with Blackstone’s initial public offering (“IPO”), the acquisition of PJT Capital LP, and the acquisition of CamberView; and (c) the amount the Company has agreed to pay Blackstone related to the net realized cash benefit from certain compensation-related tax deductions. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures and further detail regarding the adjustments are provided in the Appendix.
To help investors understand the effect of the Company’s ownership structure on its Adjusted Net Income, the Company has presented Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted. This measure illustrates the impact of taxes on Adjusted Pretax Income, assuming all Partnership Units (excluding the unvested Partnership Units that have yet to satisfy certain market conditions) were exchanged for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, resulting in all of the Company’s income becoming subject to corporate-level tax, considering both current and deferred income tax effects. This tax rate excludes the tax benefits of the adjustments for transaction-related compensation expense, amortization expense, tax benefit recorded pursuant to the CARES Act as well as certain payments to Blackstone resulting from the October 1, 2015 spin-off.
