Advisory Revenues were $133.0 million for the current quarter compared with $98.3 million for the prior year quarter, an increase of 35%. The increase in Advisory Revenues was driven by growth in our strategic advisory and restructuring and special situations businesses.

Placement Revenues were $28.7 million for the current quarter, marginally higher compared with the prior year quarter.

Interest Income & Other was $5.0 million for the current quarter compared with $4.2 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by foreign currency gains in the current quarter.

Advisory Revenues were $237.5 million for the six months compared with $201.8 million for the same period a year ago, an increase of 18%.

Non-Compensation Expense

Three Months Ended

GAAP Non-Compensation Expense was $33.9 million for second quarter 2019 compared with $26.3 million for the prior year quarter. Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense was $31.9 million for the current quarter compared with $25.6 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 Other Expenses, Professional Fees, Depreciation and Amortization and Occupancy and Related. The increase in Other Expenses was driven by 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 Professional Fees was primarily due to increased headcount and business activity. 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. The increase in Occupancy and Related was primarily due to the CamberView acquisition and expansion in our existing locations.

Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense increased during the current quarter compared with the prior year quarter, primarily due to increases in Other Expenses, Professional Fees and Occupancy and Related for the same reasons noted above.

Six Months Ended

GAAP Non-Compensation Expense was $66.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with $54.1 million for the same period a year ago. Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense was $62.9 million for the six months compared with $52.1 million for the same period a year ago.

GAAP Non-Compensation Expense increased during the six months compared with the same period a year ago, primarily due to increases in Other Expenses, Depreciation and Amortization, Professional Fees and Travel and Related. The increase in Other Expenses was driven by interest expense associated with the acquisition of CamberView and additional market data and other expenses associated with increased headcount and business activity. 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.

Provision for Taxes

As of June 30, 2019, PJT Partners Inc. owned 59.8% 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 six months ended June 30, 2019 was 25.0% compared with 22.1% 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 six months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily due to a decreased tax benefit related to the deliveries of vested shares at values in excess of their amortized cost.

Capital Management and Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2019, the Company held cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $85.6 million. Additionally, the Company had funded debt of $30 million, incurred in connection with the acquisition of CamberView.

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, which is in addition to the previous October 26, 2017 authorization. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s remaining repurchase authorization was $107.2 million.

During second quarter 2019, the Company repurchased 639,204 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program, net share settled 16,650 shares to satisfy employee tax obligations and repurchased 13,995 Partnership Units for cash pursuant to the quarterly exchange program.

In aggregate during second quarter 2019, the Company repurchased an equivalent of 669,849 shares at an average price of $40.23 per share.

The Company intends to repurchase 108,586 Partnership Units for cash on August 6, 2019 at a price to be determined by the per share volume-weighted average price of the Company’s Class A common stock on August 1, 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 September 18, 2019 to Class A common stockholders of record on September 4, 2019.

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 involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained herein. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

The risk factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, could cause our 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; 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

6


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.
