Revenues

Three and Six Months Ended

The increases in Revenues were due to increases in strategic advisory, private capital solutions, and restructuring revenues.

Compensation and Benefits Expense

Three and Six Months Ended

GAAP Compensation and Benefits Expense was $326 million and $606 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $277 million and $498 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense was $323 million and $601 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $275 million and $494 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

2

The increases in Compensation and Benefits Expense were driven by higher revenues compared with prior year, partially offset by a lower accrual rate.

Non-Compensation Expense

Three and Six Months Ended

GAAP Non-Compensation Expense was $59 million and $116 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $54 million and $104 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense was $57 million and $114 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $52 million and $101 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

The increases in Non-Compensation Expense were principally driven by: (i) Expansion of our global office footprint and the associated build-out, which resulted in increased Occupancy and Related, and Depreciation and Amortization expense, respectively; (ii) Elevated business-related activity and higher travel costs, which resulted in increased Travel and Related expense; (iii) Higher senior advisor expenses, which resulted in increased Professional Fees; and (iv) Continued investments in technology infrastructure and higher market data expense, which resulted in increased Communications and Information Services expense.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company owned 64.7% of PJT Partners Holdings LP.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain material presented herein 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 (the “Exchange Act”). 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, 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 our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our 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 our control. Our 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 our 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) cyber attacks, security vulnerabilities and internet disruptions, including breaches of data security and privacy leaks, data loss and business interruptions; (c) failures of our remote and on-premises computer or communication systems, including as a result of a catastrophic event; (d) the impact of catastrophic events, including business disruptions, pandemics, reductions in employment and an increase in business failures on (1) the U.S. and the global economy and (2) our

employees and our ability to provide services to our clients and respond to their needs; (e) the failure of third-party service providers to perform their functions; (f) volatility in the political and economic environment, including but not limited to inflation, changes to global trade policies, elevated interest rates, potential government shutdowns, and geopolitical or military conflicts; and (g) significant technological disruption, including the rapid development and adoption of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence.

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, 2025, 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

The following represent additional performance measures that management uses in making resource allocation and/or compensation decisions. 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, 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 earnings release, remove the impact of: (a) acquisition-related compensation expense; (b) acquisition-related intangible asset amortization; and (c) the net change to the amount the Company has agreed to pay Blackstone Inc. (our “former Parent”) 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 in the Appendix.

To help investors understand the effect of the Company’s ownership structure, the Company has presented Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted. This measure illustrates the impact of taxes on Adjusted Pretax Income, assuming all Partnership Units have been exchanged for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, resulting in all of the Company’s income becoming subject to corporate-level tax, considering both current and deferred income tax effects. This tax rate excludes a number of adjustments, including, but not limited to, the tax benefits of acquisition-related compensation expense and amortization expense.
