Perella Weinberg Partners' stock tumbled 7.65% in pre-market trading following the release of disappointing first-quarter financial results that missed analyst expectations.

The financial advisory firm reported Q1 revenue of $149 million, a significant 30% decline from the same period last year and well below the consensus estimate of $175.67 million. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.05, missing the $0.16 estimate by 68.75%.

According to the company's earnings release, the revenue decline was driven by fewer fee-paying clients and a decrease in deal closings across both M&A and financing and capital solutions. The company noted that while client dialogue remains strong and its backlog is at a two-year quarterly high, the quarterly performance fell short of market expectations.
