Investment banking revenues of $361.5 million for the second quarter of 2026 increased 4% compared to the first quarter of 2026 and 29% compared to the second quarter of 2025.
Advisory services revenues of $274.2 million for the second quarter of 2026 increased 9% compared to the first quarter of 2026 driven by a higher average fee which more than offset the impact of fewer completed transactions. Advisory services revenues increased 34% compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven by more completed M&A transactions and a higher average fee. Sector performance was led by our financial services group with solid contributions from our healthcare and services & industrials teams.
Corporate financing revenues of $37.8 million for the second quarter of 2026 decreased 48% compared to the strong first quarter of 2026 resulting from fewer completed financings. Corporate financing revenues increased 10% compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven by more completed equity underwriting transactions. Performance during the quarter was led by capital raising activity for our healthcare clients.
Municipal financing revenues of $49.5 million for the second quarter of 2026 increased 107% compared to the first quarter of 2026 resulting from robust activity from both our specialty sector and governmental businesses. Municipal financing revenues increased 18% compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven by the strong performance from our specialty sectors which more than offset a decline in issuances among our governmental clients.

pipersandlerlogo4q19.gif

Institutional brokerage revenues of $111.5 million for the second quarter of 2026 were essentially flat compared to the first quarter of 2026 and decreased 3% compared to the second quarter of 2025.
Equity brokerage revenues of $62.9 million for the second quarter of 2026 increased 4% compared to the first quarter of 2026 and 8% compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven by increased client activity.
Fixed income services revenues of $48.6 million for the second quarter of 2026 decreased 3% compared to the first quarter of 2026 as interest rate volatility continued to impact our regular-way client activity. Fixed income services revenues decreased 14% compared to the second quarter of 2025, which benefited from the execution of several balance sheet restructuring trades.
Investment income/(loss) for the second quarter of 2026 was income of $14.1 million compared to income of $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2026 and a loss of $4.8 million for the second quarter of 2025. For the current and prior periods, investment income/(loss) includes amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily related to the alternative asset funds we manage.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSES
For the second quarter of 2026, non-interest expenses of $395.1 million increased 2% compared to the first quarter of 2026 and 14% compared to the second quarter of 2025.
Compensation ratio of 62.3% for the second quarter of 2026 improved compared to 62.4% for the first quarter of 2026 and 65.1% for the second quarter of 2025 driven by higher net revenues.
Non-compensation expenses of $86.4 million for the second quarter of 2026 decreased 4% compared to both the first quarter of 2026 and the second quarter of 2025. Non-compensation expenses were higher during the first quarter of 2026 due to other operating expenses which included $8.5 million of litigation-related expenses. Non-compensation expenses were higher during the second quarter of 2025 due to $5.0 million of restructuring and integration costs related to headcount reductions, as well as vacated office space associated with our acquisition of Aviditi Advisors.
PRE-TAX INCOME
For the second quarter of 2026, we recorded pre-tax income of $100.4 million compared to $87.9 million for the first quarter of 2026 and $48.9 million for the second quarter of 2025.
Pre-tax margin of 20.3% for the second quarter of 2026 improved compared to 18.5% for the first quarter of 2026 and 12.3% for the second quarter of 2025 driven primarily by higher net revenues and lower non-compensation expenses.
EFFECTIVE TAX RATE
For the current and prior periods, the effective tax rate is impacted by the level of noncontrolling interests, the amount of non-deductible expenses, and the vesting of restricted stock awards. For the second quarter of 2026, the effective tax rate was 30.2%. The effective tax rate of 22.3% for the first quarter of 2026 included $7.0 million of tax benefits related to the vesting of restricted stock awards. For the second quarter of 2025, the effective tax rate of 35.1% was elevated due to the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.
NET INCOME & EARNINGS PER SHARE
For the second quarter of 2026, we generated net income of $67.8 million, or $0.95 per diluted common share.
Results for the current quarter increased compared to net income of $65.2 million, or $0.92 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026 resulting primarily from higher net revenues and lower non-compensation expenses. This was offset in part by a higher effective tax rate as net income for the first quarter of 2026 included $7.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted common share, of income tax benefits related to the vesting of restricted stock awards. Results for the current quarter increased compared to net income of $42.2 million, or $0.59 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2025 driven by higher net revenues, an increased pre-tax margin and a lower effective tax rate.

Throughout this press release, including the table above, we present financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Management believes that presenting results and measures on an adjusted basis alongside U.S. GAAP measures provides the most meaningful basis for comparison of its operating results across periods and enhances the overall understanding of our current financial performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and the conference call to discuss the contents of this press release contain forward-looking statements. Statements that are not historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These forward-looking statements cover, among other things, statements made about the outlook for future periods, e.g., the outlook for corporate advisory (e.g., M&A, debt capital markets advisory, private capital advisory), corporate financing, public finance, equity brokerage, and fixed income brokerage; current deal pipelines (or backlogs); growth plans for our businesses, including corporate investment banking and fixed income; the financial performance of recently completed transactions; our recruiting pipeline; anticipated financial results for future periods (including expectations regarding revenue levels, non-compensation expenses, non-compensation ratio, effective tax rate, compensation ratio, compensation and benefits expense, operating margins, and earnings per share); our strategic priorities; the payment of our quarterly and special cash dividends; our share repurchase program; and economic, geopolitical, and market conditions generally.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, and important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or discussed in the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and important factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
the volume of anticipated transactions – including corporate advisory (i.e., M&A), equity financing, and debt financing – and the corresponding revenues from the transactions may vary from quarter to quarter significantly, particularly if there is a decline in macroeconomic conditions or the financial markets;
revenues from corporate advisory (i.e., M&A) engagements and equity and debt financings may vary materially depending on the number, size, and timing of completed transactions, and completed transactions do not generally provide for subsequent engagements;
market, geopolitical and economic conditions or developments may be unfavorable, including in specific sectors in which we operate, and these conditions or developments, such as market fluctuations or volatility, may adversely affect our business, revenue levels and profitability;
the impact of trade policy, including tariffs, on market, geopolitical and economic conditions is difficult to predict, and may result in a decline in macroeconomic conditions or the financial markets that negatively impacts our business;
continued business and investor uncertainty around future trade policy or geopolitical conditions may adversely affect our business, revenue levels, and profitability;
interest rate volatility, especially if the changes are rapid or severe, could negatively impact our fixed income institutional business and the negative impact could be exaggerated by reduced liquidity in the fixed income markets; and
our stock price may fluctuate as a result of several factors, including but not limited to, changes in our revenues and operating results.
A further listing and description of these and other risks, uncertainties and important factors can be found in the sections titled "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and updated in our subsequent reports filed with the SEC (available at our Website at www.pipersandler.com and at the SEC Website at www.sec.gov).
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on them. We undertake no obligation to update them in light of new information or future events.
