| Metric | Latest | YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength. | QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes. |
|---|---|---|---|
| RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three). | $3.9B | +29.5% | -28.7% |
| Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day. | $591.9M | +56.5% | -68.4% |
| Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials. | +99.4% | -0.1% | -0.8% |
| Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on). | +20.5% | +15.0% | -27.6% |
| Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales. | +15.3% | +20.8% | -55.6% |
| Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock. | $1.2B | +23.4% | +324.8% |
| FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine. | +30.5% | -4.7% | +415.3% |
| Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe. | 56.9% | +5.2% | -4.6% |
| Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking. | 5.80x | -25.2% | -68.6% |
| Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground. | $5.4B | +28.4% | +9.0% |
| Metric | Annual (A vs E) | Annual Surprise | Quarter (A vs E) | Quarter Surprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Surprise | 14.05 vs 13.43 | +4.6% | 2.32 vs 4.93 | -53.0% |
| Revenue Surprise | $3.9B vs $3.7B | +5.3% | $998.5M vs $1.3B | -23.5% |

Operator: Good morning, and welcome to Evercore's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. Today's call is scheduled to last about 1 hour, including remarks by Evercore management and the question-and-answer session. I will now turn the call over to Katy Haber, Head of Investor Relations at Evercore. Please go ahead. Katy Haber: Thank you, operator. Good morning, and thank you for joining us today for Evercore's Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Conference Call. I'm Katy Haber, Evercore's Head of Investor Relations. Joining me on the call today is John Weinberg, our Chairman and CEO; and Tim LaLonde, our CFO. After our prepared remarks, we will open up the call for questions. Earlier today, we issued a press release announcing Evercore's second quarter 2026 financial results. Our discussion of our results today is complementary to the press release, which is available on our website at evercore.com. This conference call is being webcast live in the For Investors section of our website, and an archive of it will be available for 30 days beginning approximately 1 hour after the conclusion of this call. During the course of this conference call, we may make a number of forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements that we make are subject to various risks and uncertainties, and there are important factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Evercore's filings with the SEC, including our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. I want to remind you that the company assumes no duty to update any forward-looking statements. In our presentation today, unless otherwise indicated, we will be discussing adjusted financial measures, which are non-GAAP measures that we believe are meaningful when evaluating the company's performance. For detailed disclosures on these measures and the GAAP reconciliations, you should refer to the financial data contained within our press release, which is posted on our website. We continue to believe that it is important to evaluate Evercore's performance on an annual basis. As we've noted previously, our results for any particular quarter are influenced by the timing of transaction closing. I will now turn the call over to John. John Weinberg: Thank you, Katy, and good morning, everyone. Our record second quarter revenues capped off a record first half for the firm, underscoring the strength of our platform and strategy. For the quarter, we generated $1 billion of adjusted net revenues and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.91, up 19% and 20%, respectively, from the second quarter of last year. And for the first half, our revenues were $2.4 billion, up 56% year-over-year. Performance in the quarter continued to be broad-based across nearly all of our businesses with record second quarter revenues in our North American …

Evercore (EVR) reported earnings 30 days ago. What's next for the stock?

Mark Mahaney, Evercore ISI head of internet research, joins 'Power Lunch' to discuss Meta's recent settlement, what it means for the company going forward and much more.

Julian Emanuel, Evercore ISI's chief equity derivatives and quantitative strategist, said on CNBC this week that megacap tech results this quarter were “breathtaking” and then said, “the other side of breathtaking is it is likely to be as good as it gets.

Wall Street finds itself sharply divided over the market's trajectory as billionaire investor Ray Dalio flags classic signs of an artificial intelligence (AI) bubble, even as Evercore ISI projects the S&P 500 could surge to 9,000 over the next 12 months. The stark divergence highlights a growing clash between macro structural risk models and momentum-driven technical forecasts.

The 2026 stock market rally continues to defy gravity, steamrolling through macro challenges and driving Wall Street indices into record territory. Still, Evercore ISI strategists led by Julian Emanuel believe the S&P 500 surge is not out of juice just yet; in fact, he believes the current multi-year bull run has “ample” runway remaining.
