Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.17, surpassing the $0.10 consensus forecast. The company noted that 2025 marked the third highest revenue year in its 20-year history, demonstrating the strength of its platform despite a 14% year-over-year decline from a record 2024.

CEO Andrew Bednar highlighted strategic investments in talent and the acquisition of Devon Park Advisors, which established a secondaries advisory capability. The firm maintains a strong balance sheet with $256 million in cash and no debt, and reported that its pipeline entering 2026 stands at record levels, with momentum building across the business amid what management sees as broadly favorable conditions for M&A and financing solutions.
