ITEM 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On April 30, 2015, FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI Consulting”) announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015. A copy of the press release (including accompanying financial tables) is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and hereby is incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

FTI Consulting defines “Segment Operating Income (Loss)” as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income (loss). FTI Consulting defines “Total Segment Operating Income (Loss)” as the total of Segment Operating Income (Loss) for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. FTI Consulting uses Segment Operating Income (Loss) for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Segment EBITDA. FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as consolidated net income (loss) before income tax provision, other non-operating income (expense), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges and loss on early extinguishment of debt, “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges and goodwill impairment charges, and “Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA” as the total of Adjusted Segment EBITDA for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues, and “Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin” as Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a percentage of a segment’s share of revenue. Although Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin are not measures of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), FTI Consulting believes that they can be useful supplemental operating performance measures. FTI Consulting uses Adjusted Segment EBITDA to internally evaluate the financial performance of each of its segments because it believes it is a useful supplemental measure which reflects current core operating performance and provides an indicator of the segment’s ability to generate cash. FTI Consulting also believes that these non-GAAP measures, when considered together with GAAP financial results, provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of FTI Consulting’s operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges and goodwill impairment charges. In addition, EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by many of FTI Consulting’s competitors. It is used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and others to value and compare the financial performance of companies in FTI Consulting’s industry. Therefore, FTI Consulting also believes that these measures, considered along with corresponding GAAP measures, provide management and investors with additional information for comparison of its operating results to the operating results of other companies.

FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share” (“Adjusted EPS”) as net income (loss) and earnings per diluted share, respectively, excluding the impact of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges and losses on early extinguishment of debt. FTI Consulting uses

Adjusted Net Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted EPS and uses Adjusted EPS to assess total FTI Consulting operating performance on a consistent basis. FTI Consulting believes that this non-GAAP measure, when considered together with its GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of its business operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges and losses on early extinguishment of debt.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in FTI Consulting’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are included in the accompanying tables to the press release.

The information included herein, including Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into any filing pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any incorporation by reference language in any such filing, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

FTI Consulting Reports First Quarter 2015 Results

• First Quarter Revenues of $432.3 Million

• First Quarter Adjusted EPS of $0.57; Fully Diluted EPS of $0.57

Washington, D.C., April 30, 2015 — FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) (the “Company”), the global business advisory firm dedicated to helping organizations protect and enhance their enterprise value, today released its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

For the quarter, revenues increased 1.6 percent to $432.3 million compared to $425.6 million in the prior year quarter. Fully diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) were $0.57 compared to $0.45 in the prior year quarter. EPS in the prior year quarter included remeasurement gains related to the reduction in the fair value of estimated future contingent consideration payments for prior acquisitions, which increased EPS by $0.04. Adjusted EPS were $0.57 and Adjusted EBITDA was $58.7 million, or 13.6 percent of revenues, compared to Adjusted EPS of $0.41 and Adjusted EBITDA of $51.2 million, or 12.0 percent of revenues in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures defined elsewhere in this press release and are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the accompanying financial tables.

Commenting on these results, Steven H. Gunby, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTI Consulting, said, “We are pleased with our earnings per share of $0.57 even though the earnings reflect, in part, some one-time benefits and a slow start to investments. What is most gratifying and important is the ongoing progress in our key change initiatives — most visibly this quarter in our Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Strategic Communications businesses — but in fact, across all of our business segments, as these initiatives are building a solid foundation for sustainable growth.”

Cash Position

Net cash used by operating activities for the quarter was $51.3 million compared to net cash used by operating activities of $110.8 million in the prior year quarter. Cash and cash equivalents were $225.3 million at March 31, 2015 compared to $77.0 million with $20.0 million of short-term borrowings at March 31, 2014.

First Quarter Segment Results

Corporate Finance/Restructuring

Revenues in the Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment increased 13.0 percent to $106.2 million in the quarter compared to $94.0 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was driven


by higher demand for the segment’s bankruptcy restructuring and non-distressed service offerings in North America and transaction advisory services in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) region, which was partially offset by a continued slowdown in the segment’s Australia restructuring practice. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $22.5 million, or 21.2 percent of segment revenues, compared to $11.0 million, or 11.7 percent of segment revenues in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin was due to an increase in higher margin bankruptcy and restructuring activity in North America and growth in transaction advisory services in EMEA, which were partially offset by lower restructuring activity in Australia.

Forensic and Litigation Consulting

Revenues in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment increased 1.5 percent to $123.3 million in the quarter compared to $121.4 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was driven by higher demand in the segment’s health solutions, global construction solutions and investigations practices, which was partially offset by declines in the financial and enterprise data analytics practice. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $22.1 million, or 17.9 percent of segment revenues, compared to $26.5 million, or 21.8 percent of segment revenues in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin was due to lower utilization as we continue to increase staffing in order to expand our capabilities, coupled with higher recruiting, travel and marketing expenses, which more than offset the improvement in margin in the segment’s health solutions practice.

Economic Consulting

Revenues in the Economic Consulting segment declined 0.7 percent to $106.1 million in the quarter compared to $106.9 million in the prior year quarter, including a 2.5 percent negative impact from foreign currency translation (“FX”), which was largely offset by a 1.9 percent positive impact from acquisitions. Lower demand in non-mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”) related finance and antitrust services was largely offset by higher M&A-related antitrust services and higher demand for our international arbitration, regulatory and valuation practices in EMEA. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $11.6 million, or 10.9 percent of segment revenues, compared to $13.0 million, or 12.2 percent of segment revenues in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin was due to lower utilization in the finance practice, higher variable compensation in the EMEA antitrust practice and lower margins on revenue from acquisitions, which was partially offset by increased utilization in international arbitration, regulatory and valuation services and lower bad debt and occupancy expenses.

Technology

Revenues in the Technology segment decreased 9.0 percent to $54.7 million in the quarter compared to $60.1 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to a decline in large complex global investigation work and lower consulting and services revenues. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $10.1 million, or 18.4 percent of segment revenues, compared to $17.3 million, or 28.9 percent of segment revenues in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin was due to lower average price realization on consulting and services revenues, higher research and development expenses and increased investments in global services delivery, marketing and business development.

Strategic Communications

Revenues in the Strategic Communications segment decreased 2.5 percent to $42.1 million in the quarter compared to $43.2 million in the prior year quarter, which included a 7.0 percent unfavorable impact from FX. Excluding the FX impact, revenues increased 4.4 percent primarily due to growth in project-based revenues in EMEA and Asia Pacific. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $5.8 million, or 13.7 percent of segment revenues, compared to $2.7 million, or 6.3 percent of segment revenues in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin was driven by an improved mix of higher margin engagements and reduced headcount-related costs resulting from cost savings activities initiated in 2014.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which involve uncertainties and risks. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues, future results and performance, expectations, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions and other matters, business trends and other information that is not historical, including statements regarding estimates of our future financial results. When used in this press release, words such as “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, estimates of our future financial results, are based upon our expectations at the time we make them and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and estimates will be achieved, and the Company’s actual results may differ materially from our expectations, beliefs and estimates. Further, preliminary results are subject to normal year-end adjustments. The Company has experienced fluctuating revenues, operating income and cash flow in prior periods and expects that this will occur from time to time in the future. Other factors that could cause such differences include declines in demand for, or changes in, the mix of services and products that we offer, the mix of the geographic locations where our clients are located or where services are performed, adverse financial, real estate or other market and general economic conditions, which could impact each of our segments differently, the pace and timing of the consummation and integration of past and future acquisitions, the Company’s ability to realize cost savings and efficiencies, competitive and general economic conditions, retention of staff and clients and other risks described under the heading “Item 1A Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K filed with the SEC and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC, including the risks set forth under “Risks Related to Our Reportable Segments” and “Risks Related to Our Operations”. We are under no duty to update any of the forward looking statements to conform such statements to actual results or events and do not intend to do so.
