Like many other boutiques, the firm's dealflow is wildly inconsistent. Some years, like 2020/2021, the firm has been killing it, while other years, especially 15/16/17, the firm really struggled compared to its competitors. PWP's shaky and polarizing reputation largely comes from the fact that the firm's performance has been more volatile and less stable compared to similar and often more established boutiques.
I was there from exactly 2015-2017 and our deal flow was tremendous haha, if you are really analyst 1 I'm not sure you have a lot of insight into years where you were finishing up high school. I'm at H/S/W now yay
Your general point with regards to EBs makes sense though.
can i pm you?
The volatility part is relatively true but the firm “doing bad” in 16/17 is nonsense. In 2016, they were on the $100+ BN time Warner deal And 67 BN dollar Linde deal.
The firm is similar to MOE/LAZ especially given recent exits and deals. They’ve gotten increased visibility since going public and have been doing a great job so far. There’s a lot of misinformation being spread by people at mid-BB + JPM, but a lot of it sources from a misunderstanding about the difference between EB and BB.
Who on earth thinks it’s below DB lmfao
