BRINGING BACK AMERICA’S SNACK.

Situation: Numerous challenges force the iconic Hostess Brands, maker of Twinkies and Wonder Bread, into bankruptcy

After emerging from bankruptcy in 2009, Hostess Brands continued to struggle with a wide range of challenges. Against the backdrop of industry overcapacity, adverse consumer trends in white bread and snack cakes, rising commodity prices, unsustainable debt loads and legacy labor and pension funding costs, Hostess burned through $250 million in cash in just three years. Eventually, the company re-entered bankruptcy in January 2012 and later sought federal bankruptcy court permission to cease operations in November 2012 after an extended nationwide strike.

FTI Consulting Role: Breathing new life into America’s most famous snack

FTI Consulting was engaged to provide interim management support and assist with the development and assessment of a turnaround plan to allow Hostess to overcome financial and operational challenges. The turnaround plan included cost-saving, revenue generation and restructuring measures to maximize profitability and resolve operational inefficiencies.

The FTI Consulting team worked closely with operations-level employees and Hostess’ management team to review the underlying operating and financial assumptions of the turnaround plan; discuss its associated execution risks and analyze its financial implications.

Union opposition to the turnaround plan and the ensuing employee strikes resulted in 36 production facilities being shuttered. Hostess could no longer fill customer orders or sell product at its retail stores; this cut off its access to the funding needed to operate the business. To capture the brand’s

significant value, Hostess, FTI Consulting and other advisors opted to auction the company in pieces.

OUT COME

GETTING SNACK CAKES TO SELL LIKE HOT CAKES AGAIN

FTI Consulting and Hostess’ other advisors focused their efforts on developing a sales process, which included auctioning separate collections of brands and assets. This created opportunities for many different buyers to enter the process.

The various auctions raised nearly $1 billion, a value that was more than twice the highest bid that Hostess had received before re-entering bankruptcy. Actual dollar recoveries to pre-bankruptcy lenders were in excess of two times original expectations. Certain plant locations re-opened within 30 days under new ownership, and the majority of the iconic cake and bread brands returned to the shelves within two months.

RECOGNITION

FTI Consulting was named the Distressed M&A Deal of the Year (Over$1 Billion) at the 8th Annual M&A Advisor Turnaround Awards in 2014

FTI Consulting’s work on Hostess was honored by the D CEO 2014 Mergers and Acquisition Awards for Large Deal of the Year

FTI Consulting was a finalist for the Association of Management Consulting Firms 2014 Spotlight Award for Operational Performance

The FTI Consulting team exhibited dedication, expertise and technical know-how throughout the restructuring process at Hostess Brands. Whether it was assuming and quickly adapting to interim management roles or rolling up their sleeves with the management team on the Turnaround Plan, FTI Consulting’s involvement with Hostess contributed to the efficient and timely wind-down and the successful asset sale process. Few project teams have the analytical depth, strategic insight and sound business judgment that the FTI Consulting team showcased on this engagement.

A WINNING

HAND.

Situation: What to do when Uncle Sam bets against your business

PokerStars was the largest online poker site in the world with more than 50 million registered users when the U.S. government came knocking on April 15, 2011, a day now known as Black Friday within the online poker community.

In one day, the federal government shut down three of the most popular online poker websites in the world: PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and Absolute Poker/ UltimateBet. This action was launched after civil and criminal cases were filed against the companies and some of their directors, accusing them of violating federal bank fraud and money laundering statutes. As a result, these multibillion-dollar enterprises suddenly faced the very real prospect of having to fold.

FTI Consulting’s Role: Help persuade U.S. government to unfreeze and restore PokerStars’ operations and reputation

Faced with the worldwide closure of its business, PokerStars quickly reached a “domain name use agreement” with the U.S. government to allow the site to re-open worldwide. In return, the company agreed not to allow play from the U.S. for “real money.” In addition, it accepted the appointment of FTI Consulting as an independent monitor to ensure compliance. To support PokerStars, a team of multi-regional FTI Consulting professionals, with expertise across numerous business segments and practices within the firm, employed a four-pronged approach focused on technology, finance,

accounting and investigative research. This strategy ensured strict compliance with PokerStars’ obligations and ultimately led to PokerStars adopting and implementing recommendations beyond the obligations set forth by the federal government.

OUT COME

A WINNING HAND

Over the course of the 12-month monitorship, the steps and refinements recommended by FTI Consulting allowed PokerStars to demonstrate its comprehensive commitment to its compliance obligations, and helped pave the way for a settlement that included the dismissal of all civil charges in July 2012. Notably, of the three poker websites that were seized by the government on Black Friday, PokerStars is the only business still operating. This follows an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice that allowed PokerStars to acquire Full Tilt Poker, a former competitor that faced an investigation over shortfalls in its player accounts.

RECOGNITION

Finalist for the 2013 Association of Management Consulting Spotlight Awards for Change Management

Finalist for the 2013 Association of Management Consulting Spotlight Awards for Finance and Risk Management

As chief outside counsel to PokerStars, I worked closely with FTI Consulting’s independent monitoring team, and participated in all discussions and meetings with the team over the course of the 12-month monitorship. FTI Consulting’s expertise, judgment, discretion and advice were integral to the enhancement of PokerStars’ compliance protocols. PokerStars respected and implemented many of FTI Consulting’s recommendations, which were reached through deliberative and substantive discussion and consultation with both counsel and the professionals at PokerStars. FTI Consulting worked hard to gain the trust of PokerStars, and their consultancy and integrity helped to pave the way for the resolution of the outstanding civil case in July 2012.

WHAT TO DO WHEN THE HOSPITAL HAS THE HEADACHE?

Situation: Surviving in an ever-changing industry

The healthcare industry in the U.S. is undergoing a game-changing transition as the combination of cost pressures and health-care reform drive significant challenges. The North Shore-LIJ Health System, an award-winning health organization comprised of 16 hospitals, grew rapidly through acquisition over the past several years. This rapid growth resulted in disparate practices, guidelines and reporting metrics across their Perioperative Services, which manage care for surgical patients before, during and after their procedures. Because Perioperative Services represent as much as 50 percent of the health system’s total annual revenues, identifying opportunities for improved efficiencies, outcomes, growth and strategic decision-making was critical for North Shore-LIJ.

Transforming North Shore-LIJ’s operations would require enterprise-wide integration, an aligned strategic vision and a shared operational platform. North Shore-LIJ needed a partner they could rely on to deliver industry-specific insight, expertise and processes.

FTI Consulting’s Role: Delivering transformational leadership

To begin this transformation, FTI Consulting performed a comprehensive evaluation, which included interviewing key stakeholders, observing processes and identifying both strategic and operational enablers and issues. Following this assessment, FTI Consulting defined a two-phased,

24-month plan to improve safety, quality, satisfaction, profitability and efficiencies significantly across the health system.

Phase one of this process focused on laying the foundation for a centralized, enterprise-wide Perioperative Services model.

It created an integrated body to provide consistent direction, support, business intelligence tools and communications across the company.

Phase two called for the deployment of FTI Consulting experts into North Shore-LIJ Health System’s facilities to identify hospital-specific challenges and opportunities; provide hands-on implementation support and guidance and educate Perioperative leadership and managers to ensure the successful adoption of best practices.

OUT COME

MEASUREABLE RESULTS, COST SAVINGS AND IMPROVED PATIENT CARE AND SAFETY

The customized model yielded measurable performance improvement, enhanced efficiencies, better communication and collaboration, enterprise-wide reporting, and enriched patient care for North Shore-LIJ Health System. It also generated measurable quantitative results including:

A 15 percent reduction in annual supply costs in physician high-preference categories of spinal and total joint replacement surgeries, achieved through pricing negotiations and vendor consolidation;

Site-level implementation efforts resulting in a 14 percent improvement in on-time starts across the health system’s 16 hospitals just six months following execution; and

The implementation of more than 30 foundational policies, guidelines, forms and tools that have been accepted by medical boards throughout the health system.

RECOGNITION

Winner of the 2014 Association of Management Consulting Firms Operational Performance Spotlight Award

The FTI Consulting team has been the best I have seen in my professional career. They create custom solutions, hold your hands to make improvements, and do not walk away after giving you advice and a manual.

ECONOMETRICS PROVE

THE PRICE IS RIGHT.

Situation: Securing antitrust clearance for a contested merger

OfficeMax and Office Depot announced a proposed merger in February 2013, attracting a great deal of public attention. Sixteen years earlier, when Staples and Office Depot attempted to merge, the transaction was challenged by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), and blocked by the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. The potential combination of the second and third largest office supply superstore chains in the U.S. again raised the specter of antitrust-based rejection. Would history repeat itself?

FTI Consulting’s Role: Dispelling the concerns of the past through rigorous econometrics

Compass Lexecon, a subsidiary of FTI Consulting, was retained by OfficeMax to advise its board of directors on the transaction and provide in-depth economic analysis of the proposed merger.

The 1997 FTC v. Staples antitrust case helped to pioneer the application of large-scale, complicated econometrics in antitrust cases. In 2013, advanced econometrics were Officeagain in the spotlight. However, a great deal had changed in the market since then, with consumers increasingly purchasing office supplies

from big box stores and online retailers. Econometric modeling would need to account for these new realities. Compass Lexecon professionals, working closely with both OfficeMax’s and Office Depot’s counsel, performed sophisticated and detailed econometric analyses of the deal. They substantially expanded the econometric modeling used in the earlier attempted merger, taking into account competitive retail price effects of the transaction and the merging parties’ pricing.

OUT COME

TRAILBLAZERS IN AN INCREASINGLY COMPLEX ECONOMY

On November 1, 2013, the FTC provided regulatory clearance by deciding unanimously to close its seven-month investigation of the proposed merger between OfficeMax and OfficeDepot. The Compass Lexecon analysis, which found no systematic evidence that the merger would result in higher retail prices, was presented to the FTC and ultimately cited as one of the main reasons to allow the merger to close.

OfficeMax and OfficeDepot finalized their merger on November 5, 2013, creating a company serving consumers and businesses in 59 countries, employing approximately

66,000 associates and generating 2013 pro forma revenues of $17 billion.

RECOGNITION

Global Competition Review’s Merger Control Matter of the Year – Americas

The econometric analysis reflects the new competitive dynamics in the industry and shows that the proposed merger is unlikely to result in anticompetitive price effects. All of the econometrics, none of which assumed or depended on any particular definition of a relevant product or geographic market, indicate that the merger is unlikely to lead to anticompetitive price increases.

AWARD-WINNING E-DISCOVERY CLEARS MERGER FOR TAKEOFF.

Situation: Fulfill Department of Justice “Second Request” inquiry in a fast, defensible and cost efficient manner

The U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) required Goodrich Corporation to collect and review millions of documents in a condensed timeframe as part of a “Second Request” related to its proposed multibillion-dollar acquisition by United Technologies Corporation. Under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, the DOJ can impose these Second Requests if it suspects that a merger or acquisition may result in less competition. To comply, Goodrich had to collect and manage millions of documents from around the globe in a fast, defensible and cost-efficient manner. Global e-discovery capabilities were essential to meet the complex analytical, multi-lingual, regulatory and industry specific requirements of the request and complete the proposed multi-billion dollar transaction.

FTI Consulting’s Role: Boots on the ground, sophisticated workflow and industry-leading technology solutions

FTI Consulting’s ability to integrate a variety of services in a secure environment across borders and in remote locations was critical to successful collaboration with Goodrich and Jones Day. Our expert team was retained to ensure that global data privacy requirements were met and that data was collected in a defensible and reliable manner.

FTI Consulting deployed technology solutions that were vital to ensuring timely compliance with the Second Request. Using Ringtail® software with predictive coding and advanced analytics, and Acuity® managed review services for multi-lingual U.S. attorneys, the FTI Consulting team collected, processed and prioritized 5.4 million documents.

OUT COME

ON TIME, ON BUDGET AND

$1 MILLION IN SAVINGS

Of the 5.4 million documents collected,

700,000 documents were ultimately reviewed and 480,000 documents were produced for the DOJ on time. The 4.7 million documents eliminated by processing and predictive coding significantly reduced the cost of review compared to traditional linear review methodologies. Ultimately, the innovative Acuity® workflows saved Goodrich an estimated $1 million in e-discovery costs, by FTI Consulting’s calculations.

Today, Goodrich is a subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, one of the world’s largest suppliers of technologically advanced aerospace and defense products servicing customers in the commercial aerospace, defense and building industries.

RECOGNITION

Jones Day’s Antitrust & Competition Law Practice received the top commendation of “Standout” for their work on Goodrich’s merger with United Technologies Corporation, which “created new standards in the use of computer-assisted review from the Financial Times in antitrust investigations”.

CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS IN THE

MOST TURBULENT OF WATERS.

Situation: A tragic explosion and oil spill create the ultimate crisis communications challenge

The Deepwater Horizon oil rig, located in the Gulf of Mexico, exploded on April 20, 2010. Tragically, 11 crewmen were killed. The rig eventually sank, unleashing not only the largest oil spill in history, but also — in an era of proliferating media channels — one of the most sustained global media events to date. The Deepwater Horizon rig was owned by Transocean and under contract to BP p.l.c. at the time.

In the days following the explosion, Transocean faced an unprecedented challenge. Coworkers and families were dealing with missing and fallen employees; countless lawsuits and government investigations were launched; the company faced a tsunami of outraged investors; and many began to question whether Transocean would survive.

FTI Consulting’s Role: Manage a crisis aggressively or it will manage you

Within 48 hours of the explosion, Transocean engaged FTI Consulting. Our crisis communications team — with deep energy sector, corporate and financial communications, and public and government affairs experience — worked closely with Transocean’s management team and its internal and external counsel. Together we developed and executed an aggressive, fact-based communications strategy designed to inform, effectively and accurately, the multiple stakeholders impacted by this catastrophe.

The strategy included direct, 24/7 media relations engagement; government relations; preparing testimony for Congressional Oversight and other hearings; internal communications to support morale and employee retention; investor relations to support critical shareholder engagement; and litigation communications to support and enhance Transocean’s position.

OUT COME

DIRECT, RAPID, ALL-ENCOMPASSING ENGAGEMENT RESULTS IN BALANCED, ACCURATE COVERAGE

The crisis communications strategies employed by FTI Consulting on behalf of Transocean were successful in helping to manage the fallout from the incident across all of the company’s stakeholders. For example, thousands of media inquiries were addressed and the communications strategy of direct engagement set the record straight with leading media outlets, including “60 Minutes”, “Anderson Cooper 360”, The

New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg BusinessWeek. The resulting media treatment of Transocean was more favorable and accurate than the coverage received by other parties involved, which were vilified in the press worldwide.

Epilogue: Activism nearly derails the recovery

Two weeks after Transocean settled with the Department of Justice in early 2013 on matters related to the Deepwater Horizon incident, Carl Icahn became Transocean’s largest shareholder, seeking a $4.00 per share dividend. FTI Consulting worked closely with Transocean to ensure Mr. Icahn’s short-term strategy would not negatively impact the company’s long-term asset strategy or derail its operational and financial progress. At its annual meeting of shareholders, Transocean successfully defeated Mr. Icahn’s proposals, receiving 75 percent shareholder support for its dividend policy.

FTI Consulting’s work was without parallel. Our victories were your victories… I am glad to have served with you.
