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, 2020.
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, 2020. The December 31, 2020 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement 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, 2021.
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

The Company's contract assets represent 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. Under ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606"), revenue is recognized when all material conditions for completion have been met and it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period.
The Company recognized revenue of $13,759 and $21,835 on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $5,652 and $11,543 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, that was initially included in deferred revenue within Other Current Liabilities on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Generally, performance obligations under client arrangements will be settled within one year; therefore, the Company has elected to apply the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14.
The allowance for credit losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

| For the Three Months Ended September 30, |  | For the Nine Months Ended September 30, |  |
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  |

(1)Beginning Balance for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes the cumulative-effect adjustment of $1,310, which reflects the increase in the Company's Allowance for Doubtful Accounts as a result of the use of the current expected credit loss model related to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020.
The change in the balance during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily related to an increase in the current period provision of expected credit losses, which is also impacted by recoveries of bad debt, as well as the change in the amount of receivables outstanding greater than 120 days at September 30, 2021, and the write-off of aged receivables.
For long-term accounts receivable and long-term contract assets, the Company monitors clients’ creditworthiness based on collection experience and other internal metrics. The following table presents the Company’s long-term accounts receivable

The Company's investments related to private equity partnerships and associated entities include investments in Glisco Partners II, L.P. ("Glisco II"), Glisco Partners III, L.P. ("Glisco III"), Glisco Capital Partners IV ("Glisco IV"), Trilantic Capital Partners Associates IV, L.P. ("Trilantic IV"), Trilantic Capital Partners V, L.P. ("Trilantic V") and Trilantic Capital Partners VI (North America), L.P. ("Trilantic VI"). Portfolio holdings of the private equity funds are carried at fair value. Accordingly, the Company reflects its pro rata share of unrealized gains and losses occurring from changes in fair value. Additionally, the Company reflects its pro rata share of realized gains, losses and carried interest associated with any investment realizations.
A summary of the Company's investments in the private equity funds as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was as follows:

| September 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Glisco II, Glisco III and Glisco IV | $ | 3,633 |  |  | $ | 2,802 |
Trilantic IV, Trilantic V and Trilantic VI | 9,896 |  |  | 9,293 |
Total Private Equity Funds | $ | 13,529 |  |  | $ | 12,095 |

Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on private equity fund investments were ($460) and ($438) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $697 and ($1,646) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. In the event the funds perform poorly, the Company may be obligated to repay certain carried interest previously distributed. As of September 30, 2021, $785 of previously distributed carried interest received from the funds was subject to repayment.
General Partners of Private Equity Funds which are VIEs
Following the Glisco transaction, the Company concluded that Glisco Capital Partners II, Glisco Capital Partners III and Glisco Manager Holdings LP are VIEs and that the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The Company's assessment of the primary beneficiary of these entities included assessing which parties have the power to significantly impact the economic performance of these entities and the obligation to absorb losses, which could be potentially significant to the entities, or the right to receive benefits from the entities that could be potentially significant. 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 $3,617 and $3,083 included in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $5,980 and $5,572, 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.
Investment in Trilantic Capital Partners
In 2010, the Company made a limited partnership investment in Trilantic in exchange for 500 Class A partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class A LP Units") having a fair value of $16,090. This investment gave the Company the right to invest in Trilantic's current and future private equity funds, beginning with Trilantic Fund IV. The Company accounted for this investment at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The Company has a $5,000 commitment to invest in Trilantic Fund V, of which $348 was unfunded at September 30, 2021. The Company also has a $12,000 commitment to invest in Trilantic Fund VI, of which $5,762 was unfunded at September 30, 2021.
During the third quarter of 2021, consistent with the Company's current investment strategy, the Company decided to wind down its investment relationship with Trilantic. Accordingly, the Company wrote-off its remaining carrying value of its investment in Trilantic Capital Partners as of September 30, 2021, as well as certain amounts allocated to fund investments exceeding net asset value at September 30, 2021. As a result, the Company recorded an aggregate charge of $8,554 within

Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. See above in "Investments in Private Equity" for further information.
Other Investments
In certain instances, the Company receives equity securities in private companies in exchange for advisory services. These investments, which had a balance of $673 and $683 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, are accounted for at their cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes.
Following the Glisco transaction in 2016, the Company recorded an investment in Glisco Manager Holdings LP representing the fair value of the deferred consideration resulting from this transaction. This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The Company amortizes the balance of its investment as distributions are received related to the deferred consideration. This investment had a balance of $221 and $387 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Note 9 – Leases
Operating Leases – The Company leases office space under non-cancelable lease agreements, which expire on various dates through 2035. The lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company reflects lease expense over the lease terms on a straight-line basis. 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 $12,563 and $37,063 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $12,248 and $36,272 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and variable lease cost of $1,502 and $5,120 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1,841 and $4,696 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
On June 10, 2021, the Company entered into lease agreements to take on an additional 14 rentable square feet at its 1 Stanhope Gate office in London, U.K. The approximate additional annual expense under these lease agreements, net of certain lease incentives, is £1,081 and the lease term is June 10, 2021 through March 24, 2027.
In conjunction with the lease of office space, the Company has entered into letters of credit in the amounts of $5,616 and $5,550 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 $1,332 and $3,983 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1,170 and $3,497 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, 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 $31,714 and $22,469 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to its operating leases, which was net of cash received from lease incentives of $8,924 and $10,267 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Other information as it relates to the Company's operating leases is as follows:

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 entered into leases 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 it will take possession of these spaces by the end of 2023. These spaces will have lease terms of 1 to 13 years once the Company has taken possession. The additional future payments under these arrangements are $199,237 as of September 30, 2021.
In conjunction with its lease agreements at 55 East 52nd St., New York, New York, the Company has an option, subject to definitive documentation, to take on an additional 30 rentable square feet of office space, which it exercised during October 2021. The Company anticipates that it will take possession of this space during 2023. The expected approximate additional annual expense under this lease agreement, net of certain lease incentives, is $2,200 and the lease term will end on December 31, 2035.
Note 10 – 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. As required by ASC 820, the
19

(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)
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. The estimated fair values of corporate bonds, municipal bonds and other debt securities held at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are based on prices provided by external pricing 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 September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

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.

(a)The Company previously had outstanding Class J limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class J LP Units"), which converted into Class E limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class E LP Units") and ultimately became exchangeable into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis. As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, no Class J LP Units remained issued or outstanding. See Note 15 for further information. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Class J LP Units were dilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been included in the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders under the if-converted method. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all Class J LP Units are converted into Class A Shares.
(b)The Company has outstanding Class A and E LP Units, which give the holders the right to receive Class A Shares upon exchange on a one-for-one basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Class A and E 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 4,840 and 4,871 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and 5,070 and 5,161 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

adjustment to the numerator, diluted net income attributable to Class A common shareholders, if the effect would have been dilutive, would have been $19,925 and $54,096 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $6,560 and $18,990 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all vested Class A LP Units and all Class E 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 and E LP Units will result in a dilutive computation in future periods.
(c)The Company has outstanding Class I-P units of Evercore LP ("Class I-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class I limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class I LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, and outstanding Class K-P units of Evercore LP ("Class K-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class K limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class K LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, as they are subject to certain performance thresholds being achieved. For the purposes of calculating diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders, the Company's Class I-P Units and Class K-P Units are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding 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 Units that were assumed to be converted to an equal number of Class A Shares for purposes of computing diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders were 480 for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 400 for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.
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.
Note 15 – Share-Based and Other Deferred Compensation
LP Units
Equities business – In conjunction with the acquisition of the operating businesses of International Strategy & Investment ("ISI") in 2014, the Company issued Evercore LP units and interests which have been treated as compensation.
In July 2017, the Company exchanged all of the previously outstanding 4,148 Class H limited partnership interests of Evercore LP ("Class H LP Interests") for 1,012 vested (963 of which were subject to certain liquidated damages and continued employment provisions) and 938 unvested Class J LP Units. These units converted into an equal amount of Class E LP Units, and became exchangeable into Class A Shares of the Company, ratably on February 15, 2018, 2019 and 2020. These Class J LP Units had the same vesting and delivery schedule, acceleration and forfeiture triggers, and distribution rights as the Class H LP Interests. In connection with this exchange, one share of Class B common stock has been issued to each holder of Class J LP Units, which entitles each holder to one vote on all matters submitted generally to holders of Class A and Class B common stock for each Class E LP Unit and Class J LP Unit held. As the number of Class J LP Units exchanged was within the number of Class H LP Interests that the Company determined were probable of being exchanged on the date of modification, the Company expensed the previously unrecognized grant date fair value of the Class H LP Interests ratably over the remaining vesting period of the Class J LP Units. Compensation expense related to the Class J LP Units was $1,067 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
On February 15, 2020, 223 Class J LP Units vested and were converted to an equal amount of Class E LP Units. Following the conversion, no Class J LP Units remain issued and outstanding.
Class I-P Units – In November 2016, the Company issued 400 Class I-P Units in conjunction with the appointment of a current Co-Chief Executive Officer (then Executive Chairman). These Class I-P Units convert into a specified number of Class I LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent on the achievement of certain market and service conditions, subject to vesting upon specified termination events (including retirement, upon satisfying certain eligibility criteria, on or following January 15, 2022, subject to a one year prior written notice requirement) or a change in control. These Class I-P Units are segregated into two groups of 200 units each, with share price threshold vesting conditions which are required to exceed a certain level for 20 consecutive trading days (which were met as of March 31, 2017). The Company determined the fair value of the award to be $24,412 and is expensing the award ratably over the implied service

period, which ends on March 1, 2022. As the award contains market-based conditions, the entire expense will be recognized if the award does not vest for any reason other than the service conditions. Compensation expense related to this award was $1,130 and $3,495 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1,164 and $3,468 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
Class K-P Units – In November 2017, the Company issued 64 Class K-P Units to an employee of the Company. These Class K-P Units convert into a specified number of Class K LP Units (which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares), contingent upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through December 31, 2021.
In June 2019, the Company issued 220 Class K-P Units to an employee of the Company. These Class K-P Units convert into a number of Class K LP Units (which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares), contingent and based upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through February 4, 2023 for the first tranche, which consists of 120 Class K-P Units, and February 4, 2028 for the second tranche, which consists of 100 Class K-P Units.
These Class K-P Units may convert into a maximum of 460 Class K LP Units, contingent upon the achievement of certain defined benchmarks and continued service, as described above. The Company determined the grant date fair value of these awards probable to vest as of September 30, 2021 to be $34,548, related to 401 Class K LP Units which were probable of achievement, and recognizes expense for these units over the respective service periods. Compensation expense related to the Class K-P Units was $1,816 and $5,557 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $3,066 and $5,392 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
Class L Interests – In April 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of Class L Interests in Evercore LP ("Class L Interests") to named executive officers of the Company, pursuant to which the named executive officers may receive a discretionary distribution of profits from Evercore LP, to be paid in the first quarter of 2022. Distributions pursuant to these interests are anticipated to be made in lieu of any cash incentive compensation payments which may otherwise have been made to the named executive officers of the Company in respect of their service for 2021. The Company records expense related to these interests as part of its accrual for incentive compensation within Employee Compensation and Benefits on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Stock Incentive Plan
During 2020, the Company's stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the "Amended 2016 Plan"), which amended the prior Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan. The Amended 2016 Plan, among other things, authorizes an additional 6,000 shares of the Company's Class A Shares. The Amended 2016 Plan permits the Company to grant to certain employees, directors and consultants incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs and other awards based on the Company's Class A Shares. The Company intends to use newly-issued Class A Shares to satisfy any awards under the Amended 2016 Plan and its predecessor plan. Class A Shares underlying any award granted under the Amended 2016 Plan that expire, terminate or are canceled or satisfied for any reason without being settled in stock again become available for awards under the plan. The total shares available to be granted in the future under the Amended 2016 Plan was 5,103 as of September 30, 2021.
The Company also grants, at its discretion, dividend equivalents, in the form of unvested RSU awards, or deferred cash dividends, concurrently with the payment of dividends to the holders of Class A Shares, on all unvested RSU grants awarded in conjunction with annual bonuses, as well as new hire awards. The dividend equivalents have the same vesting and delivery terms as the underlying RSU award.
The Company estimates forfeitures in the aggregate compensation cost to be amortized over the requisite service period of its awards. The Company periodically monitors its estimated forfeiture rate and adjusts its 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.
Equity Grants – During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, pursuant to the Amended 2016 Plan, the Company granted employees 2,108 RSUs that are Service-based Awards. Service-based Awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 had grant date fair values of $111.03 to $141.07 per share, with an average value of $119.32 per share, for an aggregate fair value of $251,500, and generally vest ratably over four years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 2,174 Service-based Awards vested and 164 Service-based Awards were forfeited. Compensation expense related to Service-based Awards was $52,578 and $162,341 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $46,880 and $147,352 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

Deferred Cash
Deferred Cash Compensation Program – The Company's deferred cash compensation program provides participants the ability to elect to receive a portion of their deferred compensation in cash, which is indexed to notional investment portfolios selected by the participant and vests ratably over four years and requires payment upon vesting. The Company granted $96,511 of deferred cash awards pursuant to the deferred cash compensation program during the first quarter of 2021.
Compensation expense related to the Company's deferred cash compensation program was $31,576 and $97,322 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $27,193 and $85,054 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the Company expects to pay an aggregate of $324,682 related to the Company's deferred cash compensation program at various dates through 2025 and total compensation expense related to these awards not yet recognized was $193,440. The weighted-average period over which this compensation cost is expected to be recognized is 24 months. Amounts due pursuant to this program are expensed over the service period of the award and are reflected in Accrued Compensation and Benefits, a component of current liabilities, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of September 30, 2021.
Other Deferred Cash Awards – In November 2016, the Company granted a restricted cash award in conjunction with the appointment of a current Co-Chief Executive Officer (then Executive Chairman) with a target payment amount of $35,000, of which $11,000 vested on March 1, 2019, $6,000 vested on each of March 1, 2020 and 2021, and $6,000 is scheduled to vest on each of the next two anniversaries of March 1, 2021, provided that the current Co-Chief Executive Officer continues to remain employed through each such vesting date, subject to vesting upon specified termination events (including retirement, upon satisfying certain eligibility criteria, on or following May 1, 2019, subject to a six month prior written notice requirement) or a change in control. The Company had the discretion to increase (by an amount up to $35,000) or decrease (by an amount up to $8,750) the total amount payable under this award.
In 2017, the Company granted deferred cash awards of $29,500 to certain employees. These awards vest in five equal installments over the period ending June 30, 2022, subject to continued employment. The Company recognizes expense for these awards ratably over the vesting period.
In addition, the Company periodically grants deferred cash awards to certain employees. The Company recognizes expense for these awards ratably over the vesting period.
Compensation expense related to other deferred cash awards was $2,555 and $8,076 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $2,971 and $10,124 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
Long-term Incentive Plan
The Company's Long-term Incentive Plan provides for incentive compensation awards to Advisory Senior Managing Directors, excluding executive officers of the Company, who exceed defined benchmark results over four-year performance periods beginning January 1, 2017 (the "2017 Long-term Incentive Plan") and January 1, 2021 (the "2021 Long-term Incentive Plan", which was approved by the Company's Board of Directors in April 2021 and modified in July 2021). Remaining amounts due pursuant to the 2017 and 2021 Long-term Incentive Plans, which aggregate $48,455 of current liabilities and $52,218 of long-term liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of September 30, 2021, are due to be paid, in cash or Class A Shares, at the Company's discretion, in equal installments in the first quarter of 2022 and 2023 (for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan), and in the first quarter of 2025, 2026 and 2027 (for the 2021 Long-term Incentive Plan), subject to employment at the time of payment. The performance period for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan ended on December 31, 2020 and the first cash distribution pursuant to this plan of $48,461 was made in March 2021. Awards issued under the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan are subject to retirement eligibility requirements after the performance criteria has been achieved. The Company periodically assesses the probability of the benchmarks being achieved and expenses the probable payout over the requisite service period of the award. During the first half of 2020, in assessing the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's full year 2020 results, management determined it would be appropriate to decrease its expectation for the probable payout of the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan, which included a review of both historical and projected performance for those eligible under the plan. As markets continued to stabilize during the third quarter of 2020 and Advisory activity increased, management determined it would be appropriate to increase its expectation for the probable payout of the plan. The Company recorded $16,877 and $29,979 of compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $9,160 and $5,339 of compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)
As of September 30, 2021, the total remaining expense to be recognized for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan over the future vesting period ending March 15, 2023 is $13,411. As of September 30, 2021, the total remaining expense to be recognized for the 2021 Long-term Incentive Plan over the future vesting period ending March 15, 2027, based on the current anticipated probable payout for the plan, is $181,888.
Employee Loans Receivable
Periodically, the Company provides new and existing employees with cash payments in the form of loans and/or other cash awards which are subject to ratable vesting terms with service requirements ranging from one to five years and in certain circumstances, subject to the achievement of performance requirements. Generally, the terms of these awards include a requirement of either full or partial repayment of these awards based on the terms of their employment agreements with the Company. In circumstances where the employee meets the Company's minimum credit standards, the Company amortizes these awards to compensation expense over the relevant service period, which is generally the period they are subject to forfeiture. Compensation expense related to these awards was $7,279 and $17,725 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $8,101 and $16,516 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The remaining unamortized amount of these awards was $26,718 as of September 30, 2021.
Separation and Transition Benefits
In 2020, the Company completed a review of operations focused on markets, sectors and people which delivered lower levels of productivity in an effort to attain greater flexibility of operations and better position itself for future growth. This review generated reductions of approximately 8% of the Company's headcount. In conjunction with the employment reductions, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred expenses related to separation benefits, stay arrangements and accelerated deferred cash compensation (together, the "Termination Costs") of $4,151 and $26,967, respectively, and the acceleration of the amortization of share-based payments previously granted to affected employees of $3,102 and $10,437, respectively, (related to 150 RSUs) each recorded in Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, primarily within the Investment Banking segment, on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table presents the change in the Company's Termination Costs liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:

| For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2021 |  | 2020
Beginning Balance | $ | 4,589 |  |  | $ | 1,151 |
Termination Costs Incurred | 2,168 |  |  | 26,967 |
Cash Benefits Paid | (4,174) |  |  | (18,589) |
Non-Cash Charges | (101) |  |  | (624) |
Ending Balance | $ | 2,482 |  |  | $ | 8,905 |

In addition to the above Termination Costs incurred, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company also incurred expenses related to the acceleration of the amortization of share-based payments previously granted to affected employees of $486 and $2,434, respectively, (related to 34 RSUs) recorded in Employee Compensation and Benefits, within the Investment Banking segment, on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

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 the Company from incurring other indebtedness, subject to specified exceptions. The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2021. East amended this facility on October 29, 2021 such that, among other things, the interest rate provisions were LIBOR (or an applicable benchmark replacement) plus 150 basis points and the maturity date was extended to October 28, 2023 (as amended, the "Existing PNC Facility").
On July 26, 2019, East entered into an additional loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount, as amended on October 30, 2020, of up to $30,000, 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. The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2021. East amended this facility on October 29, 2021 such that, among other things, the revolving credit facility has increased to an aggregate principal amount of $55,000. Drawings under this facility bear interest at LIBOR (or an applicable benchmark replacement) plus 180 basis points and the maturity date was extended to October 28, 2023. 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 have been no drawings under this facility as of September 30, 2021.
On October 29, 2021, EGL entered into a subordinated revolving credit facility with PNC in an aggregate principal amount of up to $75,000, 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. Drawings under this facility will bear interest at LIBOR (or an applicable benchmark replacement) plus 180 basis points and the maturity date will be October 28, 2023, unless prepayment is otherwise approved earlier by FINRA.
In addition, EGL's clearing broker provides temporary funding for the settlement of securities transactions.
Other Commitments – The Company enters into commitments to pay contingent consideration related to certain of its acquisitions. The Company paid $270 and $81 of its commitment for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of Kuna & Co, KG during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The contingent consideration was fully paid as of September 30, 2021.
Restricted Cash – The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the statements of financial condition that sum to the total of amounts shown in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

| September 30,
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | $ | 478,819 |  |  | $ | 1,149,291 |  |  |
Restricted Cash included in Other Assets | 9,056 |  |  | 9,375 |  |  |
Total Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash shown in the Statement of Cash Flows | $ | 487,875 |  |  | $ | 1,158,666 |  |  |

Restricted Cash included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition primarily represents letters of credit which are secured by cash as collateral for the lease of office space and security deposits for certain equipment. The restrictions will lapse when the leases end.
Futures Contracts – In February 2020, the Company entered into four-month futures contracts on a stock index fund with a notional amount of $38,908, as an economic hedge against the Company's deferred cash compensation program. These contracts settled in June 2020. In accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"), these contracts were carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Foreign Exchange – On occasion, the Company enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts as an economic hedge against exchange rate risk for foreign currency denominated accounts receivable in EGL.

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.
Note 17 – Regulatory Authorities
EGL is a U.S. registered broker-dealer and is subject to the net capital requirements of Rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Under the Alternative Net Capital Requirement, EGL's minimum net capital requirement is $250. EGL's regulatory net capital as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $435,481 and $586,814, respectively, which exceeded the minimum net capital requirement by $435,231 and $586,564, respectively.
Certain other non-U.S. subsidiaries are subject to various securities and banking regulations and capital adequacy requirements promulgated by the regulatory and exchange authorities of the countries in which they operate. These subsidiaries are in excess of their local capital adequacy requirements at September 30, 2021.
Evercore Trust Company, N.A. ("ETC"), which is limited to fiduciary activities, is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") and is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System. The Company, Evercore LP and ETC are subject to written agreements with the OCC that, among other things, require the Company and Evercore LP to maintain at least $5,000 in Tier 1 capital in ETC (or such other amount as the OCC may require) and maintain liquid assets in ETC in an amount at least equal to the greater of $3,500 or 180 days coverage of ETC's operating expenses. The Company was in compliance with the aforementioned agreements as of September 30, 2021.
Note 18 – Income Taxes
The Company's Provision for Income Taxes was $59,712 and $137,871 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $15,677 and $51,042 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate was 24.0% and 21.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and 23.5% and 24.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate reflects net excess tax benefits and deficiencies associated with the appreciation or depreciation of the Company's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price. The Company's Provision for Income Taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflects an additional deduction of $17,422 and resulted in a reduction in the effective tax rate of 3 percentage points, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflects an additional tax expense of $100 and resulted in an increase in the effective tax rate of 0.05 percentage points related to the effect of share price changes upon vesting of share-based awards. The effective tax rate for 2021 and 2020 also reflects the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class J LP Units and Class I-P and K-P Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.
Additionally, the Company is subject to the income tax effects associated with the global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions in the period incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, no additional

income tax expense associated with the GILTI provisions has been recognized and it is not expected to be material to the Company’s effective tax rate for the year.
The Company reported an increase in deferred tax assets of $111 associated with changes in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Securities and Investments and an increase of $1,345 associated with changes in Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Gain (Loss), in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The Company classifies interest relating to tax matters and tax penalties as a component of income tax expense in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2021, there were $254 of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, $206 would affect the effective tax rate. Related to the unrecognized tax benefits, the Company accrued interest and penalties of $10 and $1, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2021. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2021, $122 of unrecognized tax benefits were recognized by the Company as a result of a lapse in the statute of limitations, of which $99 affected the effective tax rate. In addition, the Company also recognized a tax benefit for accrued interest and penalties of $43 and $3, respectively, associated with the lapse in the statute of limitations.

Item 2. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Evercore Inc.'s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains, or incorporates by reference, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "outlook," "backlog," "believes," "expects," "potential," "probable," "continues," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "predicts," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates" or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this report are forward-looking statements and are based on various underlying assumptions and expectations and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business.
Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements and, based on various underlying assumptions and expectations, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in Evercore's business. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to, those described under "Risk Factors" discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included or incorporated by reference in this report. In addition, new risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise except as required by law.
We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can management assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
Key Financial Measures
Revenue
Total revenues reflect revenues from our Investment Banking 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. Our Investment Banking business earns fees from our clients for providing advice on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, leveraged buyouts, restructurings, 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 our 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 investment banking revenue consists of advisory fees for which realizations are dependent on the successful completion of 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 or to achieve necessary regulatory approvals, or due to adverse market conditions. In the case of bankruptcy engagements, fees are subject to approval of the court. 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 principal transactions 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 acquisition ("M&A") activity, restructuring activity, which 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 to market volumes, which generally decrease in periods of low market volatility or unfavorable market or economic conditions.
Investment Management. Our Investment Management business includes operations related to the Wealth Management and Institutional Asset Management businesses and interests in private equity funds which we do not manage. Revenue sources primarily include management fees, fiduciary fees, performance fees and gains (or losses) on our investments. We completed the sale of the ECB Trust business on July 2, 2020 and the remaining ECB business on December 16, 2020. Following these transactions, there are no remaining consolidated businesses in the Institutional Asset Management business.
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. We record performance fees upon the earlier of the termination of the investment fund or when the likelihood of clawback is mathematically improbable. 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 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 and income (losses) earned on investment securities, including our investment funds and futures contracts which are used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program, certificates of deposit, cash and cash equivalents and on our debt security investment in G5 (through June 25, 2021, the date G5 repaid its outstanding debentures in full. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.)
•Adjustments to amounts due pursuant to our tax receivable agreement, subsequent to its initial establishment, related to changes in enacted tax rates
•Gains (losses) resulting from foreign currency fluctuations
•Realized and unrealized gains and losses on interests in private equity funds which we do not manage
•A gain on the sale of the ECB Trust Business in 2020. See Note 5 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Interest Expense includes interest expense associated with our Notes Payable and lines of credit.
Prior to the sale of our ECB business in Mexico on December 16, 2020, Other Revenue and Interest Expense was also derived from investing customer funds in financing transactions. These transactions were principally repurchases and resales of Mexican government and government agency securities. Revenue and expenses associated with these transactions were recognized over the term of the repurchase or resale transaction.

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, including related grants of equity awards which are generally valued at their grant date.
Increasing the number of high-caliber, experienced senior level employees is critical to our growth efforts. In our advisory businesses, these hires 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 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 if an 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, the employee is eligible for retirement. Beginning in 2019, we implemented additional retirement eligibility qualifying criteria, for awards issued in 2019 and after, that stipulates if an employee has at least 10 years of continuous service and is at least 60 years of age, the employee is also eligible for retirement. 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.
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 April 2021, our Board of Directors approved the issuance of Class L Interests to our named executive officers, pursuant to which the named executive officers may receive a discretionary distribution of profits from Evercore LP, to be paid in the first quarter of 2022. Distributions pursuant to these interests are anticipated to be 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 2021.
Our Long-term Incentive Plan provides 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 and January 1, 2021. The first cash distribution under the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan occurred in March 2021. Remaining amounts are due to be paid, in cash or Class A Shares, at our discretion, in equal installments in the first quarter of 2022 and 2023 (for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan) and in the first quarter of 2025, 2026 and 2027 (for the 2021 Long-term Incentive Plan), subject to employment at the time of payment. Awards issued under the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan are subject to retirement eligibility requirements after the performance criteria has been achieved. We periodically assess the probability of the benchmarks being achieved and expense the probable payout over the requisite service period of the award. The performance period for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan ended on December 31, 2020.
From time to time, we also grant performance awards to certain individuals which include both performance and service-based vesting requirements. See Note 15 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 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 include the following:
•Amortization of LP Units and Certain Other Awards – Includes amortization costs associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units issued in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI.
•Special Charges, Including Business Realignmen t Costs – Includes expenses in 2021 related to the write-down of certain assets associated with a legacy private equity investment relationship which, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down during the third quarter. Includes expenses in 2020 related to separation and transition benefits and related costs as a result of our review of operations and the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements and certain other fixed assets in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and our business realignment initiatives.
•Acquisition and Transition Costs – Includes costs incurred in connection with acquisitions, divestitures and other ongoing business development initiatives, primarily comprised of professional fees for legal and other services.
•Intangible Asset and Other Amortization – Includes amortization of intangible assets associated with certain acquisitions.
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.
On July 7, 2021, we acquired a 20% interest in Seneca Evercore for $0.5 million and maintain proportional representation on the board of directors of Seneca Evercore (but not less than one director) following this transaction. We account for our interest under the equity method of accounting and present our share of the income (loss) from our interest within Income from Equity Method Investments, as a component of Income Before Income Taxes, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Provision for Income Taxes
We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, 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.
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.

As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, we employed approximately 1,950 and 1,900 people, respectively, worldwide.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 versus September 30, 2020
Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. was $159.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $116.9 million, or 274%, compared to $42.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The changes in our operating results during these periods are described below.
Net Revenues were $823.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $421.0 million, or 105%, versus Net Revenues of $402.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Advisory Fees increased $437.7 million, or 162%, Underwriting Fees decreased $12.1 million, or 18%, and Commissions and Related Revenue increased $2.8 million, or 6%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. Asset Management and Administration Fees increased $2.9 million, or 21%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. Other Revenue, Including Interest and In vestments, decreased $10.8 million, or 88%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020, primarily driven by lower performance of our investment funds portfolio, which is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash

compensation program. For further information see Notes 7 and 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Total Operating Expenses were $569.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $330.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $239.0 million, or 72%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $486.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $226.7 million, or 87%, versus expense of $259.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2021 principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, as well as increased headcount year over year. Non-Compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $83.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $12.3 million, or 17%, versus $71.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Non-Compensation operating expenses increased compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020, primarily driven by increases in professional fees and travel and related expenses. Non-Compensation expenses per employee were approximately $43.3 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021, versus $40.4 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Total Other Expenses of $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 included Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, related to the write-down of certain assets associated with a legacy private equity investment relationship which, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down during the third quarter of 2021. Total Other Expenses of $8.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 included (a) Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, of $7.4 million related to separation and transition benefits and related costs and the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements and certain other fixed assets in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and our business realignment initiatives, (b) Acquisition and Transition Costs of $0.5 million and (c) intangible asset and other amortization of $0.2 million.
As a result of the factors noted above, Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense as a percentage of Net Revenues was 59.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 64.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease in the compensation ratio principally reflects leverage achieved on higher revenues, partially offset by a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, as well as increased headcount year over year.
Income from Equity Method Investments was $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in earnings from ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff.
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $59.7 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 24.0%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $15.7 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 23.5%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2021 reflects an additional tax benefit of $0.4 million and for the three months ended September 30, 2020 an additional tax expense of $0.2 million due to the net impact associated with the appreciation or depreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price, the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class I-P and K-P Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest was $29.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $8.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest primarily reflects higher earnings for Evercore LP during the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 versus September 30, 2020
Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. was $444.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $314.1 million, or 241%, compared to $130.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The changes in our operating results during these periods are described below.
Net Revenues were $2.17 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $837.1 million, or 63%, versus Net Revenues of $1.34 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Advisory Fees increased $815.4 million, or 84%, Underwriting Fees increased $0.5 million and Commissions and Related Revenue decreased $2.9 million, or 2%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Asset Management and Administration Fees increased $8.4 million, or

21%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, increased $12.6 million, or 101%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, which was primarily driven by higher performance of our investment funds portfolio, as well as a gain on the redemption of the G5 debt security in the second quarter of 2021. For further information see Notes 7, 8 and 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Total Operating Expenses were $1.52 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1.09 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $424.3 million, or 39%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $1.29 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $426.1 million, or 49%, versus expense of $863.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is driven by a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, as well as increased headcount year over year. Non-compensation expenses as a component of Operating Expenses were $229.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 1%, versus $230.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Non-compensation operating expenses decreased compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily driven by a decrease in travel and related expenses, as well as a decrease in bad debt expense, partially offset by an increase in professional fees. Non-Compensation expenses per employee were approximately $122.8 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, versus $123.3 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Total Other Expenses of $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included (a) Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, of $8.6 million related to the write-down of certain assets associated with a legacy private equity investment relationship which, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down during the third quarter of 2021 and (b) Acquisition and Transition Costs of $0.01 million. Total Other Expenses of $42.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included (a) Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, of $39.6 million related to separation and transition benefits and related costs and the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements and certain other fixed assets in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and our business realignment initiatives, (b) intangible asset and other amortization of $1.2 million, (c) compensation costs of $1.1 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI and (d) Acquisition and Transition Costs of $0.6 million.
As a result of the factors noted above, Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense as a percentage of Net Revenues was 59.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 64.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease in the compensation ratio principally reflects leverage achieved on higher revenues, partially offset by a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, as well as increased headcount year over year.
Income from Equity Method Investments was $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was a result of an increase in earnings from ABS, Atalanta Sosnoff and Luminis during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $137.9 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 21.0%. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $51.0 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 24.5%. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflects an additional tax benefit of $17.4 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 an additional tax expense of $0.1 million due to the net impact associated with the appreciation or depreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price, the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class J LP Units and Class I-P and K-P Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest was $74.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $27.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest primarily reflects higher earnings for Evercore LP during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Investment Banking Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 versus September 30, 2020
Investment Banking Net Revenues were $806.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $385.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $421.5 million, or 109%. We earned 257 fees from Advisory clients for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 206 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, representing a 25% increase. We earned 130 fees in excess of $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 74 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, representing a 76% increase. The increase in revenues from the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by an increase of $437.7 million, or 162%, in Advisory Fees, reflecting an increase in the number of Advisory fees earned and an increase in revenue earned from large transactions during the three months ended September 30, 2021. Underwriting Fees decreased $12.1 million, or 18%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting a decrease in the number of transactions we participated in, as well as the relative fee size of those transactions. Commissions and Related Revenue increased $2.8 million, or 6%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting increased trading volume compared to the prior year period. Other Revenue, net, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 decreased versus the three months ended September 30, 2020, primarily driven by lower performance of our investment funds portfolio, which is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program.
Operating Expenses were $556.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $318.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $237.6 million, or 75%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $476.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $250.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $225.3 million, or 90%. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2021 principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, as well as increased headcount year over year. Non-Compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $80.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $67.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $12.3 million, or 18%. Non-Compensation operating expenses increased from the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily driven by increases in professional fees and travel and related expenses.
Other Expenses of $7.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 included (a) Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, of $7.4 million related to separation and transition benefits and related costs and the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements and certain other fixed assets in conjunction with the expansion of our

headquarters in New York and our business realignment initiatives, (b) intangible asset and other amortization of $0.2 million and (c) Acquisition and Transition Costs of $0.2 million.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 versus September 30, 2020
Investment Banking Net Revenues were $2.13 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1.29 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $830.5 million, or 64%. We earned 586 fees from Advisory clients for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 475 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, representing a 23% increase. We earned 349 fees in excess of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 224 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, representing a 56% increase. The increase in revenues from the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by an increase of $815.4 million, or 84%, in Advisory Fees, reflecting an increase in the number of Advisory fees earned and an increase in revenue earned from large transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Underwriting Fees increased $0.5 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting an increase in the number of transactions we participated in, partially offset by a decrease in the relative fee size of our participation in those transactions, as we participated in several of the largest deals in our history last year. Commissions and Related Revenue decreased $2.9 million, or 2%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting lower volatility compared to the prior year period. Other Revenue, net, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased versus the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily driven by higher performance of our investment funds portfolio, as well as a gain on the redemption of the G5 debt security in the second quarter of 2021.
Operating Expenses were $1.48 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1.06 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $423.0 million, or 40%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $1.26 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $837.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $423.6 million, or 51%. The increase in the amount of compensation recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is driven by a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards, as well as increased headcount year over year. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $219.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $220.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of $0.5 million. Non-compensation operating expenses decreased from the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily driven by decreased travel and related expenses, as well as a decrease in bad debt expense, partially offset by an increase in professional fees.
Other Expenses of $0.01 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflected Acquisition and Transition Costs. Other Expenses of $42.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included (a) Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, of $39.6 million related to separation and transition benefits and related costs and the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements and certain other fixed assets in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and our business realignment initiatives, (b) intangible asset and other amortization of $1.2 million, (c) compensation costs of $1.1 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI and (d) Acquisition and Transition Costs of $0.3 million.

Investment Management Results of Operations
Our Investment Management segment includes the following activities:
•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, 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, Trilantic V and Trilantic VI. In the event the private equity funds perform below certain thresholds, we may be obligated to repay certain carried interest previously distributed. As of September 30, 2021, $0.8 million of previously distributed carried interest received from the funds was subject to repayment. During the third quarter of 2021, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down our investment relationship with Trilantic. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
•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.
Our historical Investment Management results include the ECB businesses, which were previously included in Institutional Asset Management above. On July 2, 2020, we sold the trust business of ECB and on December 16, 2020, we sold the remaining ECB business.
Assets Under Management
AUM for our Wealth Management business of $11.3 billion at September 30, 2021 increased compared to $10.2 billion at December 31, 2020. 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
47

Table of Contents
models based on either direct or indirect observable inputs in the use of models 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 74% and 72% of Level 1 investments, 22% and 24% of Level 2 investments and 4% of Level 3 investments as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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.
The following table summarizes AUM activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021:

Investment portfolios are tailored to meet the investment objectives of individual clients and reflect a blend of equity, fixed income and other products. Fees charged to clients reflect the composition of the assets managed and the services provided. Investment performance in the Wealth Management businesses is measured against appropriate indices based on the AUM, most frequently the S&P 500 and a composite fixed income index principally reflecting BarCap and MSCI indices.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, AUM for Wealth Management increased 11%, reflecting an 8% increase due to market appreciation and a 3% increase due to flows. Wealth Management lagged the S&P 500 on a 1-year basis by approximately 1% and outperformed the S&P 500 on a 3-year basis by approximately 4% during the period. Wealth Management outperformed the fixed income composite on a 1-year basis by approximately 70 basis points and lagged the fixed income composite on a 3-year basis by approximately 40 basis points during the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the S&P 500 was up approximately 16% and the fixed income composite was down approximately 1%.
AUM from our unconsolidated affiliates increased 8% compared to December 31, 2020, primarily related to positive performance in ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 versus September 30, 2020
Investment Management Net Revenues were $16.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $17.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, which represented a decrease of $0.4 million, or 2%. Asset Management and Administration Fees earned from the management of client portfolios increased 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily driven by an increase of $3.3 million in fees from Wealth Management clients, as associated AUM increased 19%. Fee-based revenues included $0.01 million of revenues from performance fees for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Other Revenue, net, decreased from the three months ended September 30, 2020, primarily as a result of the gain on the sale of the ECB Trust Business in the third quarter of 2020, as well as lower performance from our legacy private equity investments. Income from Equity Method Investments increased from the three months ended September 30, 2020, as a result of an increase in earnings from our investments in ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff.
Operating Expenses were $13.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $12.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $1.4 million, or 12%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $1.3 million, or 14%. Non-Compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $0.1 million, or 3%.
Other Expenses of $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 included Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, related to the write-down of certain assets associated with a legacy private equity investment relationship which, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down during the third quarter of 2021. Other Expenses of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 included Acquisition and Transition Costs.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 versus September 30, 2020
Investment Management Net Revenues were $48.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $42.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, which represented an increase of $6.6 million, or 16%. Asset Management and Administration Fees earned from the management of client portfolios increased 21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily driven by an increase of $9.5 million in fees from Wealth Management clients, as associated AUM increased 19%. Fee-based revenues included $0.08 million of revenues from performance fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Other Revenue, net, decreased 74% from the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily as a result of the gain on the sale of the ECB Trust Business in the third quarter of 2020, partially offset by higher performance from our legacy private equity investments. Income from Equity Method Investments increased from the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as a result of an increase in earnings from our investments in ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff.
Operating Expenses were $37.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $36.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $1.3 million, or 4%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $28.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $26.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $2.6 million, or 10%. Non-Compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $9.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $10.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 12%.
Other Expenses of $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, related to the write-down of certain assets associated with a legacy private equity investment relationship which, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down during the third quarter of 2021.

$0.3 million and Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, of $0.03 million, related to separation and transition benefits and related costs.
Cash Flows
Our operating cash flows are primarily influenced by the timing and receipt of investment banking and investment management fees and the payment of operating expenses, including incentive compensation to our employees and interest expense on our repurchase agreements (prior to the sale of our ECB business), Notes Payable and lines of credit, and the payment of income taxes. Investment Banking advisory fees are generally collected within 90 days of billing. However, placement fees may be collected within 180 days of billing, with fees related to private funds capital raising being 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 (and previously our Institutional Asset Management business, prior to the sale of our ECB business) are generally billed and collected within 90 days. We traditionally pay a substantial portion of incentive compensation to personnel in the Investment Banking business and to executive officers during the first three months of each calendar year with respect to the prior year's results and prior year's 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, 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. We 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:

| For the Nine Months Ended September 30,

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash were $487.9 million at September 30, 2021, a decrease of $350.3 million versus Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash of $838.2 million at December 31, 2020. Operating activities resulted in a net inflow of $529.9 million, primarily related to earnings, partially offset by the payment of 2020 bonus awards and deferred cash compensation. Investing activities during the period used cash of $208.2 million, primarily related to net purchases of investment securities and certificates of deposit and purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements, primarily related to the expansion of our headquarters in New York, partially offset by the proceeds from the redemption of the G5 debt security. Financing activities during the period used cash of $669.7 million, primarily for purchases of treasury stock and noncontrolling interests, the payment of our Notes Payable and dividends and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders, partially offset by the issuance of the 2021 Private Placement Notes. For further information, see Note 11 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Cash is also impacted due to the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuation when translating non-U.S. currencies to U.S. Dollars.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash were $1.16 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $514.8 million versus Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash of $643.9 million at December 31, 2019. Operating activities resulted in a net inflow of $283.2 million, primarily related to earnings, partially offset by the payment of 2019 bonus awards and deferred cash compensation. Cash of $481.2 million was provided by investing activities primarily related to net proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities and the maturity of certificates of deposit, partially offset by purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements, primarily related to the expansion of our headquarters in New York. Financing activities during the period used cash of $248.4 million, primarily for purchases of treasury stock and the payment of 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 Investment Banking and Investment Management revenues. Our current liabilities principally include accrued expenses, accrued liabilities related to improvements in our leased facilities, 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 made prior to the end of each calendar quarter. 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 regulatory requirements. Our liquidity is highly dependent on our revenue stream from our operations, principally from our Investment Banking business, which is a function of closing 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 repurchase agreements (prior to the sale of our ECB business), 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, 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 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 assess 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.
Treasury and Noncontrolling Interest Repurchases
We periodically repurchase Class A Shares and/or LP Units into Treasury in order to offset the dilutive effect of equity awards granted as compensation (see Note 15 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information), or amounts in excess of that if management's review, discussed above, determined 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 October 23, 2017, 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 were able to repurchase an aggregate of the lesser of $750.0 million worth of Class A Shares and/or LP Units and 8.5 million Class A Shares and/or LP Units. Further, on April 27, 2021, 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 $750.0 million worth of Class A Shares and/or LP Units and 8.5 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 nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased 3,146,126 Class A Shares, at an average cost per share of $132.79, for $417.8 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 nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased 954,994 Class A Shares, at an average cost per share of $117.46, for $112.2 million, primarily related to minimum tax withholding requirements of share deliveries.
The aggregate 4,101,120 Class A Shares repurchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were acquired for aggregate purchase consideration of $530.0 million, at an average cost per share of $129.22.
Private Placements
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, $67.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.23% Series B Notes, $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.
In March 2021, we repaid the $38.0 million aggregate principal amount of our Series A Notes.
Interest on the 2016 Private Placement Notes is payable semi-annually and the 2016 Private Placement 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 2016 Private Placement Notes (without regard to Series), in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Private Placement Notes 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 2016 Private Placement Notes will have the right to require us to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the 2016 Private Placement Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The 2016 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum

interest coverage ratio, and customary events of default. As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.
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.
Interest on the 2019 Private Placement Notes is payable semi-annually and the 2019 Private Placement 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 2019 Private Placement Notes (without regard to Series), in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Private Placement Notes 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 2019 Private Placement Notes will have the right to require us to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the 2019 Private Placement Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The 2019 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum tangible net worth, and customary events of default. As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.
On March 29, 2021, we issued an aggregate of $38.0 million of senior notes, comprised of $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.
Interest on the 2021 Private Placement Notes is payable semi-annually and the 2021 Private Placement 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 2021 Private Placement Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Private Placement Notes 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 2021 Private Placement Notes will have the right to require us to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the 2021 Private Placement Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The 2021 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum tangible net worth, and customary events of default. As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.
Lines of Credit
On June 24, 2016, East entered into a loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility 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 September 30, 2021. East amended this facility on October 29, 2021 such that, among other things, the interest rate provisions were LIBOR (or an applicable benchmark replacement) plus 150 basis points and the maturity date was extended to October 28, 2023.
On July 26, 2019, East entered into an additional loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount, as amended on October 30, 2020, of up to $30.0 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 September 30, 2021. East amended this facility on October 29, 2021 such that, among other things, the revolving credit facility has increased to an aggregate principal amount of $55.0 million. Drawings under this facility will bear interest at LIBOR (or an applicable benchmark replacement) plus 180 basis points and the maturity date was extended to October 28, 2023. 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 have been no drawings under this facility as of September 30, 2021.

Table of Contents
On October 29, 2021, EGL entered into a subordinated revolving credit facility with PNC 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. Drawings under this facility will bear interest at LIBOR (or an applicable benchmark replacement) plus 180 basis points and the maturity date will be October 28, 2023, unless prepayment is otherwise approved earlier by FINRA.
In addition, EGL's clearing broker provides temporary funding for the settlement of securities transactions.
Other Commitments
We have a long-term liability, Amounts Due Pursuant to Tax Receivable Agreements, which requires payments to certain Senior Managing Directors.
We have made certain capital commitments with respect to our investment activities, which are included in the Contractual Obligations section below.
Pursuant to deferred compensation and deferred consideration arrangements, we are obligated to make cash payments in future periods. Further, we make investments to hedge the economic risk of the return on deferred compensation. For further information see Notes 7 and 15 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 17 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Contractual Obligations
For a further discussion of our contractual obligations, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
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 $8.5 million and $12.0 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We expect to fund these commitments with cash flows from operations. 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. During the third quarter of 2021, consistent with our current investment strategy, we decided to wind down our investment relationship with Trilantic. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
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.
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 September 30, 2021, the fair value of our investments with these products, based on closing prices, was $137.6 million.
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 $13.8 million, $27.5 million and $41.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Table of Contents
In February 2020, we entered into four-month futures contracts on a stock index fund with a notional amount of $38.9 million as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program. These contracts settled in June 2020. In accordance with ASC 815, these contracts were carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We had net realized losses of ($4.0) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
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.
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 $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Exchange Rate Risk
We have foreign operations, through our subsidiaries and affiliates, primarily in Europe, Asia and Mexico (currently in wind-down), 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 European, Asian and Latin American revenues and expenses have been, and will continue to be, derived from contracts denominated in foreign currencies (i.e. British Pounds sterling, Euros, Mexican pesos, Brazilian real, among others). Historically, the value of these foreign currencies has fluctuated relative to the U.S. dollar. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 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 ($4.3) million. 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.
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 from fees related to private funds capital raising. Receivables are reported net of any allowance for doubtful accounts. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts 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. The Investment Banking and Investment Management 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 fees related to private funds capital raising, which are collected in a period exceeding one year. The collection period for restructuring transaction receivables may exceed 90 days. We recorded bad debt expense of approximately $0.02 million and $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, total receivables recorded in Accounts Receivable amounted to $398.0 million and $368.3 million, respectively, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, and total receivables recorded in Other Assets amounted to $77.9 million and $71.0 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 September 30, 2021, total contract assets recorded in Other Current Assets and Other Assets amounted to $82.8 million and

$10.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, total contract assets recorded in Other Current Assets and Other Assets amounted to $29.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively.
With respect to our Investment Securities portfolio, which is comprised primarily of treasury bills, exchange-traded funds and securities investments, we manage our credit risk exposure by limiting concentration risk and maintaining investment grade credit quality. As of September 30, 2021, we had Investment Securities of $1.2 billion, of which 88% were treasury bills.
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, 2020.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
For a discussion of 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 Co-Chief Executive Officers 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 Co-Chief Executive Officers 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
On January 4, 2021, we expanded our enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system to replace certain applications, including our general ledger. As a result, we had enhanced certain existing, and added other, internal controls to align to the system.
We have not made any changes during the three months ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or reasonably affect, our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings

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.
