Three Months Ended
Total Revenues were $174.2 million for third quarter 2019 compared with $140.1 million for the prior year quarter, an increase of 24%.
Advisory Revenues were $146.1 million for the current quarter compared with $117.2 million for the prior year quarter, an increase of 25%. The increase in Advisory Revenues was driven by significant growth in our strategic advisory business, which more than offset a decline in restructuring activity.
Placement Revenues were $25.6 million for the current quarter compared with $18.2 million for the prior year quarter, an increase of 40%. The increase in Placement Revenues was primarily driven by growth in corporate private placement activity and fund placement activity for private equity clients.
Interest Income & Other was $2.6 million for the current quarter compared with $4.8 million for the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by lower reimbursable expenses billed to clients as well as realized and unrealized foreign currency losses.

Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense was $111.5 million for the current quarter compared with $89.7 million for the prior year quarter. The increase in Compensation and Benefits Expense reflected higher revenues during the current quarter as well as increased headcount.
Nine Months Ended
GAAP Compensation and Benefits Expense was $337.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with $297.8 million for the same period a year ago. Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense was $300.2 million for the nine months compared with $259.1 million for the same period a year ago.

Non-Compensation Expense
Three Months Ended
GAAP Non-Compensation Expense was $31.4 million for third quarter 2019 compared with $28.2 million for the prior year quarter. Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense was $29.2 million for the current quarter compared with $27.3 million for the prior year quarter.
GAAP Non-Compensation Expense increased during the current quarter compared with the prior year quarter, primarily due to increases in Occupancy and Related and Depreciation and Amortization. The increase in Occupancy and Related was primarily due to expansion in footprint in our existing locations as well as the assumption of leases in the CamberView acquisition. Depreciation and Amortization increased primarily due to additional amortization expense related to intangible assets recorded in the acquisition of CamberView during the fourth quarter of 2018.
Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense increased during the current quarter compared with the prior year quarter, primarily due to an increase in Occupancy and Related for the same reasons noted above.
Nine Months Ended

GAAP Non-Compensation Expense increased during the nine months compared with the same period a year ago, primarily due to increases in Depreciation and Amortization, Other Expenses, Occupancy and Related, Travel and Related and Professional Fees. Depreciation and Amortization increased primarily due to additional amortization expense related to intangible assets recorded in the acquisition of CamberView during the fourth quarter of 2018. Other Expenses increased primarily due to interest expense associated with the acquisition of CamberView and additional market data and other expenses associated with increased headcount and business activity. The increase in Occupancy and Related was primarily due to expansion in footprint in our existing locations as well as the assumption of leases in the CamberView acquisition. The increases in Travel and Related and Professional Fees were primarily due to increased headcount and business activity.
Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense increased during the nine months compared with the same period a year ago, primarily due to increases in Other Expenses, Occupancy and Related, Travel and Related and Professional Fees for the same reasons noted above.
Provision for Taxes
As of September 30, 2019, PJT Partners Inc. owned 59.5% 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 (Deficit)” 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, 2018 for further information about the corporate ownership structure.
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 nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 25.8% compared with 22.2% for the same period a year ago. This tax rate excludes the tax benefits of the adjustments for transaction-related compensation expense, amortization expense and spin-off-related payable due to The Blackstone Group Inc. (“Blackstone”). The increase in tax rate from the nine months ended September 30, 2018 is primarily due to a decreased tax benefit related to the delivery during the period of vested shares at values in excess of their amortized cost.
Capital Management and Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2019, the Company held cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $118.2 million. Additionally, the Company had funded debt of $25.8 million.
On April 24, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock in an amount up to $100 million. As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s remaining repurchase authorization was $89.4 million.
During third quarter 2019, the Company repurchased 441,032 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program, net share settled 4,320 shares to satisfy employee tax obligations and repurchased 108,586 Partnership Units for cash pursuant to the quarterly exchange program.
In aggregate during third quarter 2019, the Company repurchased an equivalent of 553,938 shares at an average price of $40.38 per share.
The Company intends to repurchase 108,108 Partnership Units for cash on November 5, 2019 at a price to be determined by the per share volume-weighted average price of the Company’s Class A common stock on October 31, 2019.
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 December 18, 2019 to Class A common stockholders of record on December 4, 2019.

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; Adjusted Earnings Per Share; 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; (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.

|
|
42,300,645 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of September 30, 2019, there were 3.7 million Partnership Units and 0.3 million RSUs subject to market conditions that are not included in fully-diluted shares outstanding.
| Footnotes | |
|
(1) |
This adjustment adds back to GAAP Pretax Income transaction-related compensation expense for 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 the acquisition of CamberView. |
|
(2) |
This adjustment adds back to GAAP Pretax Income amounts for the amortization of intangible assets that are associated with Blackstone’s IPO, the acquisition of PJT Capital LP on October 1, 2015 and the acquisition of CamberView on October 1, 2018. |
|
(3) |
This adjustment adds back to GAAP Pretax Income the amount the Company has agreed to pay Blackstone related to the net realized cash benefit from certain compensation-related tax deductions. Such expense is reflected in Other Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
|
(4) |
Represents taxes on Adjusted Pretax Income, considering both current and deferred income tax effects for the current ownership structure. |
|
(5) |
Represents taxes on Adjusted Pretax Income, assuming all Partnership Units (excluding the unvested partnership units that have yet to satisfy 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. |
|
(6) |
Represents the dilutive impact under the treasury method of unvested, non-participating RSUs that have a remaining service requirement. |
|
(7) |
Excludes 3.7 million unvested Partnership Units and 0.3 million RSUs as of September 30, 2019 that have yet to satisfy certain market conditions. |
|
(8) |
Assumes all Partnership Units and unvested participating RSUs have been converted to shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. |
| Note: | Amounts presented in tables above may not add or recalculate due to rounding. |
