NET REVENUES
For the third quarter of 2026, net revenues of $443.0 million decreased 11% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and 8% compared to the third quarter of 2025.
Investment banking revenues of $331.7 million for the third quarter of 2026 decreased 8% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and were essentially flat compared to the third quarter of 2025.
•Advisory services revenues of $250.3 million for the third quarter of 2026 decreased 9% compared to the second quarter of 2026 driven by a lower average fee, but increased 18% compared to the third quarter of 2025 resulting from a higher average fee. Performance was led by our financial services group and our energy, power & infrastructure team, which generated a record quarter, and included a solid contribution from our healthcare franchise.
•Corporate financing revenues of $56.6 million for the third quarter of 2026 increased 50% compared to the second quarter of 2026 as higher revenue per deal more than offset a decline in completed financings. Corporate financing revenues decreased 29% compared to the strong third quarter of 2025 driven primarily by fewer completed transactions. Our performance during the quarter was centered around capital raising activity for our healthcare and financial services clients.
•Municipal financing revenues of $24.8 million for the third quarter of 2026 decreased 50% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and 36% compared to the third quarter of 2025 as higher interest rates negatively impacted issuance activity.

pipersandlerlogo4q19.gif

Institutional brokerage revenues of $114.3 million for the third quarter of 2026 increased 2% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and 3% compared to the third quarter of 2025.
•Equity brokerage revenues of $54.5 million for the third quarter of 2026 decreased 13% compared to the strong second quarter of 2026 resulting from lower client activity, but revenues were flat compared to the third quarter of 2025.
•Fixed income services revenues of $59.8 million for the third quarter of 2026 increased 23% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and 5% compared to the third quarter of 2025 as the elevated interest rate environment drove increased client activity.
Investment income/(loss) for the third quarter of 2026 was a loss of $13.5 million compared to income of $14.1 million for the second quarter of 2026 and income of $30.6 million for the third 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 third quarter of 2026, non-interest expenses of $376.4 million decreased 5% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and were essentially flat compared to the third quarter of 2025.
•Compensation ratio of 64.7% for the third quarter of 2026 was higher compared to 62.3% for the second quarter of 2026 and 60.3% for the third quarter of 2025 resulting from lower net revenues, which was exacerbated by the investment loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.
•Non-compensation expenses of $89.8 million for the third quarter of 2026 increased 4% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and 8% compared to the third quarter of 2025. Non-compensation expenses were higher during the current quarter primarily due to incremental occupancy and equipment costs in connection with our New York City office move and increased outside services expenses resulting from higher legal fees as well as increased professional fees associated with technology consulting services.
PRE-TAX INCOME
For the third quarter of 2026, we recorded pre-tax income of $66.6 million compared to $100.4 million for the second quarter of 2026 and $107.4 million for the third quarter of 2025.
•Pre-tax margin of 15.0% for the third quarter of 2026 declined compared to 20.3% for the second quarter of 2026 and 22.4% for the third quarter of 2025 driven primarily by losses on our investments, including amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in the alternative asset funds we manage. In addition, pre-tax margin for the current quarter was impacted by higher 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 third quarter of 2026, the effective tax rate of 39.7% was elevated due to the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 30.2%. For the third quarter of 2025, the effective tax rate of 23.2% was impacted by the higher net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.
NET INCOME & EARNINGS PER SHARE
For the third quarter of 2026, we generated net income of $55.4 million, or $0.78 per diluted common share.
Results for the current quarter decreased compared to net income of $67.8 million, or $0.95 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2026 and net income of $60.3 million, or $0.85 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2025 resulting from lower net revenues, a decreased pre-tax margin and a higher effective tax rate.

ADJUSTED NET REVENUES
For the third quarter of 2026, adjusted net revenues of $456.0 million decreased 7% compared to the second quarter of 2026 driven by lower municipal financing, advisory services and equity brokerage revenues which were offset in part by increased corporate financing and fixed income services revenues. Adjusted net revenues were modestly higher compared to the third quarter of 2025, as increased advisory services revenues were offset by lower corporate and municipal financing activity.
ADJUSTED OPERATING EXPENSES

ADJUSTED OPERATING INCOME
For the third quarter of 2026, adjusted operating income of $90.3 million decreased 16% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and 6% compared to the third quarter of 2025.
•Adjusted operating margin of 19.8% for the third quarter of 2026 decreased compared to 21.8% for the second quarter of 2026 resulting primarily from lower adjusted net revenues.

ADJUSTED EFFECTIVE TAX RATE
For the third quarter of 2026, our adjusted effective tax rate was 31.7%, compared to 30.5% for the second quarter of 2026 and 28.8% for the third quarter of 2025.
ADJUSTED NET INCOME & ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
For the third quarter of 2026, we generated adjusted net income of $61.7 million, or $0.87 of adjusted earnings per diluted common share.
Results for the current quarter decreased compared to adjusted net income of $74.5 million, or $1.04 of adjusted earnings per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2026 resulting primarily from lower adjusted net revenues, higher adjusted non-compensation expenses and a higher adjusted effective tax rate. Results for the current quarter decreased compared to adjusted net income of $68.6 million, or $0.96 of adjusted earnings per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2025 resulting primarily from higher adjusted non-compensation expenses and a higher adjusted effective tax rate.

•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;
•our ability to effect the repurchase program depends in part upon our results of operations and profitability and may be impacted by negative operating conditions, and an inability to access capital readily or on terms favorable to us could impair our ability to effect the repurchase program; 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).
