Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking statements include certain information concerning future results of operations, business strategies, acquisitions, financing plans, competitive position, potential growth opportunities,
potential operating performance improvements, the effects of competition and the effects of future legislation or regulations. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical
facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words "believe," "expect," "opportunity," "plan," "intend," "anticipate,” “estimate,” “predict," "potential,"
"continue," "may," "might," "should," "could" or the negative of these terms or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company's current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the
future of its business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are
subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict, many of which are outside the Company's control. The Company's actual results and financial condition
may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance upon any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could
cause the Company's actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (a) changes in governmental
regulations and policies; (b) cyberattacks, security vulnerabilities, and internet disruptions, including breaches of data security and privacy leaks, data loss, and business interruptions; (c) failure of the
Company's computer systems or communication systems during a catastrophic event, including as a result of the increased use of remote work environments and virtual platforms; (d) the impact of
catastrophic events, such as COVID-19 or other pandemics, on the U.S. and the global economy, including business disruptions, reductions in employment and an increase in business failures; (e) the impact
of catastrophic events, such as COVID-19 or other pandemics, on the Company's employees and the Company's ability to provide services to its clients and respond to their needs; (f) the failure of third-party
service providers to perform their functions; and (g) volatility in the political and economic environment.
Any of these factors, as well as such other factors discussed in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company's periodic filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, could
cause the Company's results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. There may be other risks and uncertainties that the Company is unable to predict at this time or that are
not currently expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. Any such risks could cause the Company's results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts
so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") in the
statements of operations, financial condition or cash flows of the company. These measures should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes the following non-GAAP measures, when presented together with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors in understanding the Company's operating results: Adjusted
Pretax Income; Adjusted Net Income; Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted, in total and on a per-share basis (referred to as "Adjusted EPS"); Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense and Adjusted Non-
Compensation Expense. These non-GAAP measures, presented and discussed in this presentation, remove the significant accounting impact of: (a) transaction-related compensation expense, including
expense related to Partnership Units with both time-based vesting and market conditions as well as equity-based and cash awards granted in connection with the spin-off from Blackstone Inc. ("Blackstone")
and acquisition of CamberView Partners Holdings, LLC ("CamberView"); (b) intangible asset amortization associated with Blackstone's initial public offering ("IPO"), the acquisition of PJT Capital LP, and the
acquisition of CamberView; (c) impairment of CamberView's former leased space; and (d) the net change to the amount PJT Partners has agreed to pay Blackstone related to the net realized cash benefit
from certain compensation-related tax deductions. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures and further detail regarding the adjustments are provided
on pages 28 and 31 of this presentation. For additional information about our non-GAAP financial measures, see our filings with the SEC.
