The Company adopted ASU No.

2016-13 on January 1, 2020, using a modified retrospective method of transition.

The Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings by $ 1,310 as of January 1, 2020.

Following the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company’s accounting policies are as follows:

Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets – Accounts Receivable consists primarily of investment banking fees and expense reimbursements charged to the Company's clients.

The Company records Accounts Receivable, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts, when relevant revenue recognition criteria has been achieved and payment is conditioned on the passage of time.

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide coverage for estimated losses from its client receivables.

The Company determines the adequacy of the allowance by estimating the probability of loss based on the Company's analysis of historical credit loss experience of its client receivables, and taking into consideration current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount.

The Company has determined that long-term forecasted information is not relevant to its fee receivables, which are primarily short-term.

The Company updates its average credit loss rates periodically and maintains a quarterly allowance review process to consider current factors that would require an adjustment to the credit loss allowance.

In addition, the Company periodically performs a qualitative assessment to monitor risks associated with current and forecasted conditions that may require an adjustment to the expected credit loss rates.

Expected credit losses for newly recognized financial assets and changes to expected credit losses during the period are recognized in earnings.

The Investment Banking and Investment Management receivables collection periods generally are within 90 days of invoice, with the exception of placement fees, which are generally collected within 180 days of invoice, and fees related to private funds capital raising, which are collected in a period exceeding one year.

The collection period for restructuring transaction receivables may exceed 90 days .

Receivables that are collected in a period exceeding one year are reflected in Other Assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

The Company records contract assets within Other Current Assets and Other Assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition when payment is due from a client conditioned on future performance or the occurrence of other events.

The Company also recognizes a contract asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if the benefit of those costs is expected to be longer than one year .

The Company applies a practical expedient to expense costs to obtain a contract as incurred when the amortization period is one year or less.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, certain balances on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the prior period were reclassified to conform to their current presentation.

Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2016-13 – In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-13.

ASU 2016-13 provides amendments to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses," which amend the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments and add an impairment model (the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses.

Entities will recognize an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses as of the end of each reporting period.

ASU 2016-13 also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment for available-for-sale debt securities and requires impairments on these securities to be recognized in earnings through an allowance when fair value is less than amortized cost and a credit loss exists or when the securities are expected to be sold before a recovery of amortized cost.

The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted after December 15, 2018.

EVERCORE INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings by $ 1,310 as of January 1, 2020.

As a result of adopting ASU 2016-13, the Company’s allowance for credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost will reflect management’s estimate of credit losses over the remaining expected life of such assets.

These expected credit losses are measured based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts.

Expected credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, and changes to expected credit losses during the period are recognized in earnings.

The impact of the new guidance primarily relates to the Company’s trade accounts receivable.

The Company previously used the specific identification method for establishing credit provisions and write-offs of its trade accounts receivable.

ASU 2018-13 – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No.

2018-13, "Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement" ("ASU 2018-13").

ASU 2018-13 provides amendments to ASC 820, " Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), which remove the requirements surrounding the disclosure and policy of transfers between fair value levels and the valuation processes for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements.

In addition, ASU 2018-13 adds disclosure requirements for changes in unrealized gains and losses for Level 3 measurements and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 fair value measurements.

The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.

The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses and unobservable inputs for Level 3 measurements should be applied prospectively, and all other amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively.

The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 on January 1, 2020.

The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-17 – In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No.

2018-17, "Consolidation (Topic 810) - Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities" ("ASU 2018-17").

ASU 2018-17 provides amendments to ASC 810, " Consolidation" which states that any indirect interest held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests.

The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.

The amendments are required to be retrospectively applied with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

The Company adopted ASU 2018-17 on January 1, 2020.

The adoption of ASU 2018-17 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

Actual results may differ materially if actual activity deviates from these assumptions.

In connection with its business realignment initiatives, in April 2020, the Company entered into an agreement for the leaders of its business in Mexico to purchase ECB, the Company's Mexico based broker-dealer focused principally on providing Investment Management services, for a purchase price of MXN 35,000 .

This sale will be completed following regulatory approval.

Note 8 – Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value, Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell and Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The Company, through ECB, enters into repurchase agreements with clients seeking overnight money market returns whereby ECB transfers to the clients Mexican government securities in exchange for cash and concurrently agrees to repurchase the securities at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus a stipulated premium or interest factor.

ECB deploys the cash received from, and acquires the securities deliverable to, clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market, which the Company reflects as Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition , or by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties.

The Company accounts for these repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements as collateralized financing transactions, which are carried at their contract amounts, which approximate fair value given that the contracts mature the following business day.

The Company records a liability on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in relation to repurchase transactions executed with clients as Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase.

The Company records as assets on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition , Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value (where the Company has acquired the securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market) and Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell (where the Company has acquired the securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase agreements by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties).

These Mexican government securities had an estimated average time to maturity of approximately 1.2 years , as of September 30, 2020 , and are pledged as collateral against repurchase agreements.

Generally, collateral is posted

(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)

equal to the contract value at inception and is subject to market changes.

These repurchase agreements are primarily with institutional customer accounts managed by ECB and permit the counterparty to pledge the securities.

ECB has procedures in place to monitor the daily risk limits for positions taken, as well as the credit risk based on the collateral pledged under these agreements against their contract value from inception to maturity date.

The daily risk measure is Value at Risk ("VaR"), which is a statistical measure, at a 98 % confidence level, of the potential daily losses from adverse market movements in an ordinary market environment based on a historical simulation using the prior year's historical data.

ECB's Risk Management Committee (the "Committee") has established a policy to maintain VaR at levels below 0.1 % of the value of the portfolio.

If at any point in time the threshold is exceeded, ECB personnel are alerted by an automated interface with ECB's trading systems and begin to make adjustments in the portfolio in order to mitigate the risk and bring the portfolio in compliance.

Concurrently, ECB personnel must notify the Committee of the variance and the actions taken to reduce the exposure to loss.

In addition to monitoring VaR, ECB periodically performs discrete stress tests ("Stress Tests") to assure that the level of potential losses that would arise from extreme market movements that may not be anticipated by VaR measures are within acceptable levels.
