Gleacher & Company Reports Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

The Company has included in this press release “non-GAAP financial results.” A non-GAAP financial result is a numerical measure of financial position or results of operations that includes amounts that are excluded, or excludes amounts that are included, in the most directly comparable result calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

• the reversal of certain severance expense in the third quarter of 2012, previously accrued during the first quarter,
• legal, consulting and advisory costs incurred in connection with our strategic alternatives process during the second quarter and third quarter of 2012,
• impairment of goodwill and intangibles recorded during the second quarter of 2012 and the third quarter of 2011, as well as other non-compensation expenses incurred in connection with the Investment Banking realignment,
• valuation allowance on deferred tax assets recorded during the second quarter of 2012,
• severance expense recorded during the first quarter of 2012 and third quarter of 2011,
• compensation expense related to the resignation of the former interim CEO in the second quarter of 2011, and
