Richard B. Handler, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Brian P. Friedman, Chairman of the Executive Committee, commented: “We are pleased to report quarterly revenues above those of the first quarter and the same period last year. Investment banking net revenues were in excess of $400 million, an increase of 49% compared to this year’s first quarter and 22% versus the second quarter last year. Our momentum has continued in investment banking and our current backlog for the third quarter is comparable to the backlog of three months ago. Our equity net revenues were strong versus the first quarter and the same quarter last year. Excluding Bache, Fixed income net revenues increased by 56% versus the slow first quarter, but declined by 29% compared to the year ago quarter. Fixed income results improved each month during the quarter. We continue to unwind the Bache business and to date have transferred about 50% of client accounts to Societe Generale and other brokers. We expect to have substantially completed the unwind of Bache by the end of the summer.”
The attached financial tables should be read in connection with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended February 28, 2015 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2014. Adjusted financial measures referenced above are non-GAAP financial measures, which management believes provide meaningful information to enable investors to evaluate the Company's results in the context of exiting the Bache business. Refer to the Supplemental Schedules on pages 5-7 for a reconciliation of Adjusted measures to the respective direct U.S. GAAP financial measures.

(1) Revenues generated by the Bache business, including commissions, principal transaction revenues and net interest revenue, for the presented period have been classified as a reduction of revenue in the presentation of Adjusted financial measures.
(2) Compensation expense and benefits recognized during the presented period for employees whose sole responsibilities pertain to the activities of the Bache business, including front office personnel and dedicated support personnel, have been classified as a reduction of Compensation and benefits expense in the presentation of Adjusted financial measures.

These expenses include Floor brokerage and clearing fees, amortization of capitalized software used directly by the Bache business in conducting its business activities, technology and occupancy expenses directly related to conducting Bache business operations and business development and professional services expenses incurred by the Bache business as part of its client sales and trading activities, including estimates of certain support costs dedicated to the Bache business.

These costs consist primarily of severance, retention and benefit payments for employees, incremental amortization of outstanding restricted stock and cash awards, contract termination costs and incremental amortization expense of capitalized software expected to no longer be used subsequent to the wind-down of the business. We expect to incur additional costs of $48.6 million and $34.3 million on a pre-tax and post-tax basis, respectively, over the remainder of fiscal 2015.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS - FOOTNOTES
(1) Amounts pertaining to May 31, 2015 represent a preliminary estimate as of the date of this earnings release and may be revised in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended May 31, 2015.
(2) At May 31, 2015, other sources of liquidity include high quality sovereign government securities and reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. government securities and other high quality sovereign government securities of $1,135 million, in aggregate, and $527 million, being the total of the estimated amount of additional secured financing that could be reasonably expected to be obtained from our financial instruments that are currently not pledged at reasonable financing haircuts and additional funds available under the committed senior secured revolving credit facility available for working capital needs of Jefferies Bache. The corresponding amounts included in other sources of liquidity at February 28, 2015 were $911 million and $396 million, respectively, and at May 31, 2014, were $1,202 million and $664 million, respectively.
(3) Tangible member‘s equity (a non-GAAP financial measure) represents total member’s equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. We believe that tangible member‘s equity is meaningful for valuation purposes, as financial companies are often measured as a multiple of tangible member’s equity, making these ratios meaningful for investors.
(4) Bache assets (a non-GAAP financial measure) includes Cash and cash equivalents, Cash and securities segregated, Financial instruments owned, Securities purchased under agreements to resell and Receivables attributable to our Bache business.
(5) Level 3 financial instruments represent those financial instruments classified as such under Accounting Standards Codification 820, accounted for at fair value and included within Financial instruments owned.
(6) In May 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-07, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent).” The guidance removes the requirement to include investments in the fair value hierarchy for which the fair value is measured at net asset value using the practical expedient under “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820).” The guidance also removes the requirement to make certain disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the net asset value practical expedient. Rather, those disclosures are limited to investments for which we have elected to measure the fair value using that practical expedient. The guidance is effective retrospectively beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted and we have early adopted this guidance during the second quarter of fiscal 2015.
(7) At May 31, 2015, February 28, 2015 and May 31, 2014, total capital includes our long-term debt of $5,340 million, $5,726 million and $6,414 million, respectively, and total equity. Long-term debt included in total capital is reduced by amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility and the amount of debt maturing in less than one year, where applicable.
(8) Leverage ratio equals total assets divided by total equity.
(9) Adjusted leverage ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) equals adjusted assets divided by tangible total equity, being total equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Adjusted assets (a non-GAAP financial measure) equals total assets less securities borrowed, securities purchased under agreements to resell, cash and securities segregated, goodwill and identifiable intangibles plus financial instruments sold, not yet purchased (net of derivative liabilities). At May 31, 2015, February 28, 2015 and May 31, 2014, adjusted assets were $37,172 million, $35,977 million and $35,577 million, respectively. We believe that adjusted assets is a meaningful measure as it excludes certain assets that are considered of lower risk as they are generally self-financed by customer liabilities through our securities lending activities.
(10) Tangible gross leverage ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) equals total assets less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets divided by tangible member's equity. The tangible gross leverage ratio is used by rating agencies in assessing our leverage ratio.
(11) Leverage ratio - excluding impacts of the Leucadia transaction (a non-GAAP financial measure) is calculated as follows:

(12) VaR estimates the potential loss in value of our trading positions due to adverse market movements over a one-day time horizon with a 95% confidence level. For a further discussion of the calculation of VaR, see “Value at risk” in Part II, Item 7 “Management's Discussion and Analysis” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2014.
