Evercore (EVR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Evercore Inc's financial outlook is bolstered by a significant increase in advisory revenues, which reached $698 million for the quarter, reflecting a 23% year-over-year improvement and exceeding consensus estimates by 19%. Projections for 2025 and 2026 have been adjusted upward due to anticipated growth in advisory revenue, underwriting fees, and investment management revenue, along with the benefit of lower income tax rates. Despite facing challenges such as rising compensation expenses and an expanded share count, the overall financial trajectory suggests a positive market environment for mergers and acquisitions moving into 2026.
Bears say
Evercore's declining compensation ratio, which fell by 30 basis points quarter-over-quarter to 65.4%, raises concerns about its operational efficiency and profitability, particularly as it contrasts with consensus estimates of 65.7%. The company's dependence on financial advisory services leaves it vulnerable to fluctuations in M&A activity, with expectations for a continued decrease in the compensation ratio to 65.0% in 2025 and 62.0% in 2026. Given that approximately 75% of Evercore's revenue is derived from the U.S., potential economic downturns could exert additional pressure on its financial performance.
