2 Notices and Disclaimers Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include certain information concerning future results of operations, business strategies, acquisitions, financing plans, competitive position, potential growth opportunities, potential operating performance improvements, the effects of competition and the effects of future legislation or regulations. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words believe, expect, plan, intend, anticipate, estimate, predict, potential, continue, may, might, should, could or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained herein. PJT Partners undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. The risk factors discussed in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ), as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC s website at could cause the results of PJT Partners to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. There may be other risks and uncertainties that PJT Partners is unable to predict at this time or that are not currently expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. Any such risks could cause the results of PJT Partners to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains certain non-gaap financial measures. A non-gaap financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of a company s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ( GAAP ) in the statements of operations, financial condition or cash flows of the company. These measures should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the following non-gaap measures, when presented together with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors in understanding the Company s operating results: Adjusted Pretax Income; Adjusted Net Income; Adjusted Net Income, If-Converted, in total and on a per-share basis; Adjusted Compensation and Benefits Expense and Adjusted Non-Compensation Expense. These non-gaap measures, presented and discussed in this presentation, remove the significant accounting impact of: (a) transaction-related equity-based compensation expense, including expense related to Partnership Units with both time-based vesting and market conditions as well as equity-based retention awards granted in connection with the spin-off; (b) intangible asset amortization associated with The Blackstone Group L.P. s ( Blackstone ) initial public offering ( IPO ) and the acquisition of PJT Capital LP; and (c) the amount PJT Partners has agreed to pay Blackstone related to the net realized cash benefit from certain compensationrelated tax deductions. Reconciliations of the non-gaap measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures and further detail regarding the adjustments are provided on pages 21 and 24 of this presentation. For additional information about our non-gaap financial measures, see our filings with the SEC. Disclaimers This document is as is and is based, in part, on information obtained from other sources.

25 Notes to Financials 1. This adjustment adds back to GAAP Pretax Income transaction-related equity-based compensation expense for Partnership Units with both time-based vesting and market conditions as well as equity-based retention awards granted in connection with the spinoff. 2. This adjustment adds back to GAAP Pretax Income amounts for the amortization of intangible assets that are associated with Blackstone s IPO and amounts for the amortization of intangible assets identified in connection with the acquisition of PJT Capital LP on October 1, This adjustment adds back to GAAP Pretax Income the amount the Company has agreed to pay Blackstone related to the net realized cash benefit from certain compensation-related tax deductions. Such expense is reflected in Other Expenses in the GAAP Statements of Operations. 4. Represents taxes on Adjusted Pretax Income, considering both current and deferred income tax effects for the current ownership structure. 5. Represents taxes on Adjusted Pretax Income, assuming all Partnership Units (excluding the unvested partnership units that have yet to satisfy market conditions) were exchanged for shares of the Company s Class A common stock, resulting in all of the Company s income becoming subject to corporate-level tax, considering both current and deferred income tax effects, permanent differences, as well as the impact of the deferred tax asset remeasurement related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and return to provision adjustments. 24
