Reconciliation of GAAP to
Adjusted (non-GAAP) Financials
Source: Company filings
Note:
1. Includes amortization of equity awards granted to employees and MDs in connection with the IPO
Our Adjusted results remove the impact of compensation expenses specifically related to the Firm’s IPO awards, and apply the corporate tax rate to all
earnings under the assumption that 100% of the Firm’s net income was taxed at our corporate effective tax rate. We believe the Adjusted results,
when presented together with comparable GAAP results, are useful to investors to compare our performance across periods and to better understand
our operating results.

Quarterly Revenue Summary
QUARTERLY REVENUE (Q1 2013 – Q4 2018)
Revenue
($mm)
Source: Company filings
Notes: Management primarily focuses on annual revenue measures as revenues in any quarter may not be indicative of full year results and the results of any period may vary
significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. For the purpose of understanding the Company’s historical experience for the 9-year period of 2010-2018, revenues on
average were distributed over the four calendar quarters as follows: Q1: 21%; Q2: 24%; Q3: 25%; Q4: 30%. The quarterly revenue data for Q1 2013 through Q4 2018 was
derived from our unaudited financial statements included in our Form 10-Qs and our audited financial statements included in our Form 10-Ks. The quarterly revenue data
for 2010, 2011 and 2012 was prepared on substantially the same basis as the unaudited financial statements in our Form 10-Qs and our audited financial statements in our
Form 10-Ks and includes all normal and recurring adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of revenue for these periods
