FTI Consulting Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
  • Second Quarter 2022 Revenues of $755.0 Million, Up 6% Compared to $711.5 Million in Prior Year Quarter 
  • Second Quarter 2022 EPS of $1.43, Down 19% Compared to $1.77 in Prior Year Quarter; Second Quarter 2022 Adjusted EPS of $1.43, Down 18% Compared to $1.74 in Prior Year Quarter
  • Reaffirms 2022 Guidance

WASHINGTON, July 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today released financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second quarter 2022 revenues of $755.0 million increased $43.5 million, or 6.1%, compared to revenues of $711.5 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from foreign currency translation ("FX"), revenues increased $65.5 million, or 9.2%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $4.7 million during the quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand and realized rates in Corporate Finance & Restructuring and higher realized rates in Forensic and Litigation Consulting, which was partially offset by lower realization and demand in Economic Consulting. Net income of $51.4 million compared to $62.8 million in the prior year quarter. Net income declined compared to the prior year quarter, as the increase in revenues was more than offset by higher selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") and compensation expenses, which included the impact of a 9.4% increase in billable headcount. Adjusted EBITDA of $76.2 million, or 10.1% of revenues, compared to $92.3 million, or 13.0% of revenues, in the prior year quarter.

Second quarter 2022 earnings per diluted share ("EPS") of $1.43 compared to $1.77 in the prior year quarter. Second quarter 2021 EPS included a $3.1 million fair value remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, which increased EPS by $0.09 and $2.4 million of non-cash interest expense related to the Company's 2.0% convertible senior notes due 2023, which decreased EPS by $0.06. Second quarter 2022 Adjusted EPS of $1.43 compared to Adjusted EPS of $1.74 in the prior year quarter. Second quarter 2021 Adjusted EPS excluded the fair value remeasurement and non-cash interest expense.

Steven H. Gunby, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTI Consulting, commented, “Our solid results this quarter reflect the strength of our underlying business, together with our commitment to invest heavily to attract and support talented professionals to extend our global footprint and ensure we are able to continuously deliver on our clients' ever-evolving needs.”

Cash Position and Capital Allocation

Net cash provided by operating activities of $35.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to $125.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The year-over-year decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was largely due to an increase in compensation, primarily related to headcount growth, higher operating expenses and income tax payments, as well as a decrease in cash collections compared to the same period in the prior year.

Cash and cash equivalents of $255.7 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $256.9 million at June 30, 2021 and $271.1 million at March 31, 2022. Total debt, net of cash, of $60.5 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $159.4 million at June 30, 2021 and $60.1 million at March 31, 2022.

There were no share repurchases during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, approximately $164.0 million remained available for common stock repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase authorization.

Second Quarter 2022 Segment Results

Corporate Finance & Restructuring
Revenues in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment increased $46.1 million, or 20.0%, to $277.1 million in the quarter compared to $231.0 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $52.3 million, or 22.7%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $3.6 million in the quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand and realized rates for transactions, business transformation and restructuring services compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $55.0 million, or 19.8% of segment revenues, compared to $40.2 million, or 17.4% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was due to higher revenues, which was partially offset by an increase in compensation, which includes the impact of an 8.4% increase in billable headcount, and higher SG&A expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Forensic and Litigation Consulting
Revenues in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment increased $13.5 million, or 9.0%, to $164.2 million in the quarter compared to $150.7 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $16.3 million, or 10.8%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $1.1 million in the quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand for health solutions services and higher realized rates for investigations services compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $16.7 million, or 10.2% of segment revenues, compared to $18.0 million, or 11.9% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher compensation, which includes the impact of a 7.9% increase in billable headcount, and higher SG&A expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Economic Consulting

Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues decreased $12.2 million, or 6.6%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to lower demand for merger and acquisition ("M&A")-related antitrust services and lower realization for non-M&A-related antitrust services, primarily related to revenue deferrals, which was partially offset by higher demand for non-M&A-related antitrust services compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $21.6 million, or 13.2% of segment revenues, compared to $30.7 million, or 16.7% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was due to lower revenues and higher SG&A expenses, which was partially offset by lower variable compensation expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Technology
Revenues in the Technology segment decreased $0.9 million, or 1.1%, to $77.8 million in the quarter compared to $78.6 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $1.1 million, or 1.4%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to increased demand for information governance, privacy and security and investigations services, which was partially offset by lower demand for litigation and M&A-related "second request" services compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $8.4 million, or 10.8% of segment revenues, compared to $18.5 million, or 23.5% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher compensation, which includes the impact of an 18.2% increase in billable headcount and an increase in as-needed contractors, as well as higher SG&A expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Strategic Communications
Revenues in the Strategic Communications segment increased $4.0 million, or 6.0%, to $71.9 million in the quarter compared to $67.8 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $7.9 million, or 11.7%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand for corporate reputation services compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $11.5 million, or 16.0% of segment revenues, compared to $13.5 million, or 19.9% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher compensation, which includes the impact of a 13.7% increase in billable headcount, and higher SG&A expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In the accompanying analysis of financial information, we sometimes use information derived from consolidated and segment financial information that may not be presented in our financial statements or prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Certain of these financial measures are considered not in conformity with GAAP ("non-GAAP financial measures") under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules. Specifically, we have referred to the following non-GAAP financial measures:

  • Total Segment Operating Income
  • Adjusted EBITDA
  • Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA
  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin
  • Adjusted Net Income
  • Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share
  • Free Cash Flow

We have included the definitions of Segment Operating Income and Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which are GAAP financial measures, below in order to more fully define the components of certain non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. We define Segment Operating Income as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income. We define Total Segment Operating Income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Segment Operating Income for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Segment Operating Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Segment EBITDA. We define 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. We use Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a basis to internally evaluate the financial performance of our segments because we believe it reflects current core operating performance and provides an indicator of the segment’s ability to generate cash.

We define Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Adjusted Segment EBITDA for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as consolidated net income 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, gain or loss on sale of a business and losses on early extinguishment of debt. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of our operating results, including underlying trends. In addition, EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by many of our competitors. It is used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and others to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry. Therefore, we also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, considered along with corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating results with the operating results of other companies. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues.

We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share ("Adjusted EPS"), which are non-GAAP financial measures, as net income and EPS, respectively, excluding the impact of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges, losses on early extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense on convertible notes and the gain or loss on sale of a business. We use Adjusted Net Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted EPS. Management uses Adjusted EPS to assess total Company operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with an additional understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends.

We define Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash payments for purchases of property and equipment. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with an additional understanding of the Company’s ability to generate cash for ongoing business operations and other capital deployment.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable with 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 our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.

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.
