What believers are saying

  • Q2 2026 revenue hit a record $409.4 million, up 12% year over year.
  • First-half 2026 revenue reached $729.2 million, driven by higher fees per completed transaction.

What critics are saying

  • Advisory revenue stays deal-cycle dependent; Q1 2026 missed EPS, alarming public investors.
  • Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley outgrew Moelis in Q2 2026, intensifying talent and mandate pressure.
  • Founder-control governance concentrates power around Ken Moelis, creating succession and minority-holder friction risks.

What makes Moelis & Company unique

  • Moelis remains a pure-play independent adviser, not a balance-sheet lender or broker-dealer.
  • Ken Moelis’s control agreement survived Delaware Supreme Court review on January 20, 2026.
  • The firm keeps adding sector specialists, including June 2026 energy MD James McEwan.

Moelis & Company posts record Q1 revenue of $320M, up 4% amid geopolitical headwinds

Moelis & Company reported record first-quarter revenue of $320 million, up 4% year-over-year, driven by higher M&A and private capital advisory activity. The firm cited a near all-time high deal pipeline and double-digit growth in sponsor M&A revenues. CEO Navid Mahmoodzadegan highlighted notable mandates including advising on Clear Channel Outdoor's $6.2 billion sale and Tri Pointe Homes' $4.5 billion sale. However, management flagged headwinds from Middle East conflict, private credit disruptions and AI-driven software repricing affecting parts of M&A and financing. The firm ended the quarter with $354 million cash and no debt, returning approximately $171 million to shareholders through a $0.65 dividend and share repurchases. The adjusted compensation ratio fell to 65.8%.
