Evercore (EVR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Evercore's recent financial performance shows a notable increase in advisory revenues, reaching $698 million, which represents a 23% year-over-year increase and significantly surpasses consensus estimates by 19%. The firm's revenue outlook for 2025 and 2026 has been bolstered by anticipated growth in advisory revenue, underwriting fees, and investment management, while also benefiting from lower income taxes. Despite challenges posed by policy uncertainty and geopolitical risks, the M&A landscape is expected to improve, enhancing Evercore’s prospects as it leverages its strong reputation and conflict-free advisory model.
Bears say
Evercore's financial outlook appears negative due to a decline in its compensation ratio, which decreased by 30 basis points quarter-over-quarter to 65.4%, diverging from the consensus estimate of 65.7%. This trend raises concerns, as the expectation for increased merger and acquisition activity did not lead to improved performance, prompting a downward revision of compensation ratio estimates for 2025 and 2026 to 65.0% and 62.0%, respectively. With Evercore being the only firm in its coverage to reduce its compensation ratio, this indicates potential challenges in maintaining operational efficiency and profitability amidst fluctuating market conditions.
