Clients
Client groups will often comprise multiple client engagements with different entities or individuals, such as multiple subsidiaries of an entity, multiple principals within a single private equity fund or multiple individuals or trusts within a single wealthy family. We evaluate our portfolio of client groups and client engagements on a periodic basis using a variety of quality-based metrics and may, from time-to-time, modify, consolidate or discontinue client relationships or client engagements.
Our clients are distributed across a substantial number of individuals, wealthy families and trusts and business enterprises within a wide range of industries, including financial services, consumer products, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing, pharmaceutical and biotech, private equity, real estate, technology and venture capital. By serving a diverse range of clients across a diverse range of industries, we believe we can capitalize on growth opportunities in expanding sectors while offsetting potential slowdowns in others.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Margin
We define Adjusted Net Income as net income plus expenses related to transaction activities, including costs related to planned mergers, acquisitions, and business combinations, non-recurring equity restructuring costs and non-cash equity-based compensation expense. We define Adjusted Net Income Margin as Adjusted Net Income divided by revenue. We believe Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Margin enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial and operating performance because they exclude transaction-related costs allowing for greater transparency into what measures we use in operating our business and measuring our performance. In addition, these measures enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods.
In the second quarter of 2026, we revised our definition of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Margin to include all non-cash equity-based compensation, and in the last twelve months ended
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define EBITDA as net income plus income tax expense, interest expense, and depreciation and amortization less interest income. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA with adjustments to exclude results from expenses related to transaction activities, including costs related to planned mergers, acquisitions, and business combinations, non-cash equity-based compensation expense and non-recurring equity restructuring costs. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
In the second quarter of 2026, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to include all non-cash equity-based compensation, and in the last twelve months ended
