ITEM 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On February 25, 2016, FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI Consulting”) held a conference call relating to the press release issued on February 25, 2016 announcing financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2015 and guidance for the year ending December 31, 2016. The text of the transcript of the conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and 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 losses on early extinguishment of debt, “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income (loss) 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 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 and Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin are not measures of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), FTI Consulting believes that they can be useful supplemental measures which reflect current core operating performance and/or 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 and Adjusted EBITDA are common alternative measures of operating performance used by many of FTI Consulting’s competitors. They are 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 (Loss). 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.
