Confidence: high Filing date: 2026-07-30 Report date: 2026-06-30 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with PJT Partners Inc.’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our Business PJT Partners is a premier, global, advisory-focused investment bank that was built from the ground up to be different. Our highly experienced, collaborative teams provide independent advice coupled with old-world, high-touch client service. This ethos has allowed us to attract some of the very best talent in the markets in which we operate. We deliver leading advice to many of the world’s most consequential companies, effect some of the most transformative transactions and restructurings and raise billions of dollars of capital around the globe to support startups and more established companies. For further information regarding our business, refer to “Part I. Item 1. Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Business Environment Economic and global financial conditions can materially affect our operational and financial performance. See “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a discussion of some of the factors that can affect our performance. Mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”) is a cyclical business that is impacted by macroeconomic conditions. In the first half of 2026, worldwide announced M&A volumes increased meaningfully compared with the first half of 2025, though the improvement was more modest when looking at annualized volumes relative to full-year 2025 activity levels. Several factors influence the intermediate-term outlook, including monetary policy, global trade policy, elevated economic and geopolitical tension, technological and artificial intelligence disruption, and global growth trends, and how these factors will shape the strength of strategic activity remains unclear. As we look ahead, the broader capital markets and M&A environment continues to be favorable for deal making; market sentiment, however, can change quickly. Global restructuring and special situations activity remained strong during the second quarter of 2026 due to continued liability management, balance sheet restructuring and bankruptcy activity. A number of factors are driving elevated levels of distress with corporates, financial sponsors and creditors grappling with macroeconomic issues, challenged business models, technological disruption, and stress in private credit markets. Liability management led by financial sponsors continued to drive activity, which remains dispersed across a breadth of geographies and industries. Fund placement activity remains challenging given the overall slowdown in realizations and the supply of alternative investment opportunities in the market seeking capital. Additionally, limited partners remain discerning in their deployment of capital for both existing and new fund manager relationships. Investors continue to focus on existing relationships and, as a result, the bar for fund managers to attract new investors remains high. As it relates to private capital solutions, the demand for alternative liquidity vehicles from both general partners and limited partners continues to be a driver for increased activity, and, barring no major changes in the macroeconomic outlook, we expect the market volumes to remain favorable in the intermediate term. 22 Key Financial Measures Revenues Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, we no longer separately present advisory fees and placement fees within Revenues on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The nature of our advisory services is substantially similar across engagements, and these services are delivered through a fully integrated platform with engagements routinely incorporating cross-disciplinary expertise. This presentation more accurately represents the nature of our business and has no impact on total Revenues, net income, or the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Substantially all of our revenues are derived from contracts with clients to provide advisory services. This revenue is primarily a function of the number of active engagements we have, the size and the complexity of each of those engagements and the fees we charge for our services. Our highly integrated advisory services encompass a range of strategic advisory, shareholder advisory, capital markets advisory, restructuring, liability management, fund placement services, and private capital solutions to corporations, financial sponsors, institutional investors, and governments around the world. Our senior professionals bring diversified expertise and deep relationships to each client situation, and given our holistic approach to client service and the complexity of the transactions on which we may earn revenues, we dedicate the necessary resources to each engagement regardless of the type of advice. For example, a restructuring engagement may require a sale of all or a portion of the client’s business or a capital raise, calling for cross-disciplinary expertise from our M&A and capital markets professionals. Accordingly, given our highly integrated advisory services, we do not present our revenues by type of advice we provide as it would not be a meaningful or reliable basis for presentation. Substantially all of our revenues are earned from providing advisory services and are typically based on the completion of a transaction. These revenues are generally recognized over time; however, the majority of our transaction-based fees are constrained until the successful completion of a transaction. Accordingly, the majority of revenues recognized in any given period may relate to advisory services that were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Retainer fees are generally recognized over the period in which advisory services are performed. We may receive nonrefundable upfront fees, which are recorded as revenues in the period over which services are to be provided. Certain fee arrangements result in long-term receivables paid in installments over multiple years and bear interest at an agreed-upon rate. Interest on long-term receivables is earned from the time revenue is recognized and is included in Accounts Receivable, Net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. A transaction can fail to be completed for many reasons, including global and/or regional economic conditions or failure of parties to agree upon final terms, secure necessary board or shareholder approvals, secure necessary financing or achieve necessary regulatory approvals. In the case of certain bankruptcy engagements, fees are subject to approval of the court. Revenues also include amounts not otherwise derived from contracts with customers, such as (i) interest that is typically earned on Cash and Cash Equivalents and investments in Treasury securities, (ii) foreign exchange gains and losses, (iii) gains and losses arising from fair value adjustments of certain assets and liabilities, (iv) sublease income, and (v) the amount of expense reimbursement invoiced to clients. Expenses Compensation and Benefits – Compensation and Benefits expense includes salaries, restricted and unrestricted cash awards, benefits, employer taxes, and equity-based compensation associated with the grants of equity-based awards. Changes in this expense are driven by fluctuations in the number of employees, the composition of our workforce, business performance, compensation adjustments in relation to market movements, changes in rates for employer taxes and other cost increases affecting benefit plans. The expense associated with our restricted and unrestricted cash awards and equity plans can also have a significant impact and may vary from year to year. Certain awards are expensed over the requisite service period for partners and employees who are or will become retirement eligible prior to the stated vesting date. Over time, a greater number of partners and employees may become retirement eligible and the related requisite service period over which the expense is recognized will be shorter than the stated vesting period. 23 We maintain compensation programs, including salaries, annual incentive compensation (which may include components of unrestricted cash, restricted cash and/or equity-based awards), and benefits programs. We manage compensation to estimates of competitive levels based on market conditions and performance. Our compensation expense reflects our objective to attract and retain key personnel by maintaining competitive compensation levels. It also reflects the impact of newly-hired senior professionals, including any related grants of equity or restricted cash awards. Increasing the number of high-caliber, experienced senior level employees is critical to our growth efforts and our continued investment in senior talent may also increase compensation and benefits expense. These hires generally do not generate significant revenue in the year they are hired. Non-Compensation Expense – Non-Compensation expenses are the other costs typical to operating our business, which generally consist of Occupancy and Related, Travel and Related, Professional Fees, Communications and Information Services, Depreciation and Amortization, and Other Expenses. Further information regarding these expenses can be found in “Part II. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Income Taxes – PJT Partners Inc. is a corporation subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes in jurisdictions where it does business. Our businesses generally operate as partnerships for U.S. federal and state purposes and as corporate entities in non-U.S. jurisdictions. In the U.S. federal and state jurisdictions, taxes related to income earned by these entities generally represent obligations of the individual members and partners. The operating entities are generally subject to New York City Unincorporated Business Tax and to entity-level income taxes imposed by state and local as well as non-U.S. jurisdictions, as applicable. These taxes have been reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. PJT Partners Inc. is subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income tax on its allocable share of results of operations from the holding partnership (PJT Partners Holdings LP). Non-Controlling Interests PJT Partners Inc. is a holding company and its only material asset is its controlling equity interest in PJT Partners Holdings LP, a holding partnership that holds the Company's operating subsidiaries, and certain cash and cash equivalents it may hold from time to time. As the sole general partner of PJT Partners Holdings LP, PJT Partners Inc. operates and controls all of the business and affairs and consolidates the financial results of PJT Partners Holdings LP and its operating subsidiaries. The portion of net income attributable to the non-controlling interests is presented separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. 24 Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations The following table sets forth our condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025: [Excerpt truncated for page length; source filing is linked above.] ## Latest 10-K MD&A (excerpt) Latest 10-K Item 7 source: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1626115/000119312526076969/pjt-20251231.htm Complete FY 2025 MD&A: /company/PJT/mda/fy2025/ Extracted structurally from real Item 7 body heading to real Item 7A/8 boundary.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with PJT Partners Inc.’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in this Annual Report on Form 10‑K. Our Business PJT Partners is a premier, global, advisory-focused investment bank that was built from the ground up to be different. Our highly experienced, collaborative teams provide independent advice coupled with old-world, high-touch client service. This ethos has allowed us to attract some of the very best talent in the markets in which we operate.

Further information regarding our business is provided in “Part I. Item 1. Business” of this filing. Business Environment Economic and global financial conditions can materially affect our operational and financial performance. See “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this filing for a discussion of some of the factors that can affect our performance. M&A is a cyclical business that is impacted by macroeconomic conditions. There are several factors influencing global M&A activity in the intermediate term, including monetary policy, global trade policies, greater economic and geopolitical uncertainty, and global growth. How these macroeconomic factors impact the strength of strategic activity in the intermediate term is still uncertain. In 2025, worldwide M&A announced volumes increased 49% compared with 2024, however, the number of transactions declined to a five-year low1. As we look ahead, the broader capital markets and M&A environment continues to be favorable for deal making. The momentum in global M&A observed in the second half of 2025 is likely to carry over through 2026, however, market sentiment can change quickly. Global restructuring and special situations activity remained elevated during 2025 due to liability management, balance sheet restructuring and increasing bankruptcy activity. A number of factors are driving elevated levels of distress with corporates, financial sponsors and creditors grappling with challenged business models and macroeconomic uncertainties. Activity remained dispersed with corporates, creditors and financial sponsors operating in certain industries across a breadth of geographies, demonstrating a continued multi-year restructuring cycle. Fund placement activity remains challenging given the overall slowdown in realizations and the supply of alternative investment opportunities in the market seeking capital. Additionally, limited partners have become more discerning in their deployment of capital for both existing and new fund manager relationships. Investors continue to focus on existing relationships and, as a result, the bar for fund managers to attract new investors remains high as a flight to quality persists. As it relates to private capital solutions, the demand for alternative liquidity vehicles from general partners and limited partners continues to be a driver for increased activity, and, barring no major changes in the macroeconomic outlook, we expect the market to remain favorable in the intermediate term. 1 Source: LSEG Global Mergers & Acquisitions Review for Full Year of 2025 as of December 31, 2025. Key Financial Measures Revenues Substantially all of our revenues are derived from contracts with clients to provide advisory services. This revenue is primarily a function of the number of active engagements we have, the size and the complexity of each of those engagements and the fees we charge for our services. Given the complex nature of our engagements, our senior professionals bring diversified expertise and deep relationships to each client situation, working across product lines to ensure clients receive the full breadth of the firm's capabilities. We provide a range of strategic advisory, shareholder advisory, capital markets advisory, and restructuring and special situations services to corporations, financial sponsors, institutional investors and governments around the 32 world. In conjunction with providing restructuring advice, we may also assist with raising various forms of financing, including debt and equity. Our private capital solutions services include providing general partner solutions and investing solutions to clients seeking portfolio liquidity, unfunded commitment relief and investments in secondary markets. Our fund placement services primarily serve a diverse range of investment strategies, including private equity, alternative credit/hedge funds, real estate and directs. We advise on all aspects of the fundraising process including competitive positioning and market assessment, marketing materials and related documentation including partnership terms and conditions most prevalent in the current environment. We also provide public and private placement fundraising services to our corporate clients. The amount and timing of the fees earned vary by the type of engagement and are typically based on retainers, the completion of a transaction or a capital raise. Fees earned for services provided to alternative asset managers are typically recognized upon acceptance by a fund of capital or capital commitments (referred to as a “closing”), in accordance with terms set forth in individual agreements. For commitment-based fees, revenue is recognized over time as commitments are accepted. Fees for closed-end fund arrangements are generally long-term receivables, paid in installments over three or four years and interest is charged to the outstanding balance at an agreed upon rate, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or an alternate reference rate, plus a market-based margin. For funds with multiple closings, the constraint on variable consideration is lifted upon each closing. For open-end fund structures, associated fees are typically calculated as a percentage of a placed investor’s month-end net asset value. Typically, we earn fees for such open-end fund structures over a four year period. For these arrangements, revenue is recognized over time as it becomes reasonably certain that the amounts earned will not be reversed. Fees earned for public and private placement fundraising services are recognized based on successful completion of the transaction. We may receive non-refundable up-front fees in our contracts with customers, which are recorded as revenues in the period over which services are estimated to be provided. A transaction can fail to be completed for many reasons, including global and/or regional economic conditions or failure of parties to agree upon final terms, secure necessary board or shareholder approvals, secure necessary financing or achieve necessary regulatory approvals. In the case of bankruptcy engagements, fees are subject to approval of the court. Also, included in revenues is (i) interest that is typically earned on Cash and Cash Equivalents, investments in Treasury securities and outstanding long-term receivables, (ii) foreign exchange gains and losses, (iii) gains and losses arising from fair value adjustments of certain assets and liabilities, (iv) sublease income, and (v) the amount of expense reimbursement invoiced to clients. Interest on long-term receivables is earned from the time revenue is recognized and is included in Accounts Receivable, Net in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Expenses Compensation and Benefits – Compensation and Benefits expense includes salaries, restricted and unrestricted cash awards, benefits, employer taxes and equity-based compensation associated with the grants of equity-based awards. Changes in this expense are driven by fluctuations in the number of employees, the composition of our workforce, business performance, compensation adjustments in relation to market movements, changes in rates for employer taxes and other cost increases affecting benefit plans. The expense associated with our restricted and unrestricted cash awards and equity plans can also have a significant impact and may vary from year to year. Certain awards are expensed over the requisite service period for partners and employees who are or will become retirement eligible prior to the stated vesting date. Over time, a greater number of partners and employees may become retirement eligible and the related requisite service period over which the expense is recognized will be shorter than the stated vesting period. We maintain compensation programs, including salaries, annual incentive compensation (that may include components of unrestricted cash, restricted cash and/or equity-based awards) and benefits programs. We manage compensation to estimates of competitive levels based on market conditions and performance. Our compensation expense reflects our objective to attract and retain key personnel by maintaining competitive compensation levels. It also reflects the impact of newly-hired senior professionals, including any related grants of equity or restricted cash awards. Increasing the number of high-caliber, experienced senior level employees is critical to our growth efforts and our continued investment in senior talent may also increase compensation and benefits expense. These hires generally do not generate significant revenue in the year they are hired. 33 Our remaining expenses are the other costs typical to operating our business, which generally consist of: • Occupancy and Related – consisting primarily of costs related to leased property, including rent, maintenance, real estate taxes, utilities and other related costs. Our company headquarters are located in New York, New York, and we maintain additional offices in the U.S. and throughout the world; • Travel and Related – consisting primarily of costs for our partners and employees to render services where our clients are located; • Professional Fees – consisting primarily of consulting, audit and tax, compensation related to senior advisors, recruiting, legal and other professional services; • Communications and Information Services – consisting primarily of costs for our technology infrastructure, cybersecurity, business applications, and fees paid for access to external market data; • Depreciation and Amortization – consisting of depreciation and amortization on our furniture, equipment, leasehold improvements, fractional aircraft ownership interest, and intangible assets; and • Other Expenses – consisting primarily of provision for credit losses, regulatory fees, insurance, advertising, charitable contributions, and other general operating expenses.
