Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests

Redeemable non-controlling interests are presented at their redemption value as of the reporting date and represent the ownership interests in PWP OpCo held by holders other than Perella Weinberg Partners. As of September 30, 2026, the current and former working partners collectively own 18,021,285 PWP OpCo Units, which represents an 18.5% non-controlling ownership interest in PWP OpCo.
