Evercore (EVR) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Evercore (EVR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Evercore's positive outlook is supported by robust advisory revenue growth, with an impressive 23% year-over-year increase, reaching $698 million and exceeding consensus estimates by 19%. The firm's financial projections for 2025 and 2026 reflect rising advisory and underwriting revenues, in addition to growth in investment management revenue, bolstered by lower income taxes. Despite potential challenges from policy uncertainty and geopolitical factors, the anticipated improvement in the merger and acquisition landscape for the latter half of 2025 and into 2026 reinforces a favorable long-term outlook for Evercore.
Bears say
Evercore's compensation ratio decreased 30 basis points quarter-over-quarter to 65.4%, which was the only decline among peers, suggesting potential vulnerabilities in operational efficiency. Analyst expectations indicate a continuing downward trend in the compensation ratio, with revised estimates set at 65.0% and 62.0% for 2025 and 2026, respectively, reflecting diminishing profit margins. These factors, combined with an anticipated increase in M&A activity, raise concerns about Evercore's ability to maintain robust profitability in a competitive advisory landscape.
