• Company Revises 2020 Guidance

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today released financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Third quarter 2020 revenues of $622.2 million increased $29.1 million, or 4.9%, compared to revenues of $593.1 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated positive impact from foreign currency translation ("FX"), revenues increased $23.3 million, or 3.9%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was driven by higher demand in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring and Economic Consulting business segments, which was partially offset by lower demand in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting and Strategic Communications business segments, as well as a decline in pass-through revenues compared to the prior year quarter. Net income of $50.2 million compared to $60.4 million in the prior year quarter. Net income included a special charge of $7.1 million and FX remeasurement losses, which were partially offset by a lower effective tax rate compared to the prior year quarter. The third quarter special charge of $7.1 million included $4.7 million of lease abandonment and other relocation costs related to the Company’s New York City office consolidation and $2.4 million of severance and employee-related costs in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the special charge, of $90.9 million, or 14.6% of revenues, compared to $92.3 million, or 15.6% of revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was due to higher compensation, primarily related to a 15.8% increase in billable headcount, which was partially offset by higher revenues and a decline in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Third quarter 2020 fully diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $1.35 compared to $1.59 in the prior year quarter. Third quarter 2020 EPS included the $7.1 million special charge, which reduced EPS by $0.14. Third quarter 2020 EPS also included $2.3 million of non-cash interest expense related to the Company's 2.0% convertible senior notes due 2023 ("2023 Convertible Notes"), which decreased EPS by $0.05. Third quarter 2019 EPS included $2.2 million of non-cash interest expense related to the Company's 2023 Convertible Notes, which decreased EPS by $0.04. Third quarter 2020 Adjusted EPS of $1.54, which excludes the special charge and non-cash interest expense, compared to Adjusted EPS of $1.63 in the prior year quarter.

Steven H. Gunby, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTI Consulting, commented, “Our growth in the face of COVID-19, in the face of all the challenges it has created for our clients and for our teams working to deliver for them, is a powerful testament to the strength of this company, its relevance to clients facing major issues, and the dedication and resilience of our more than 6,200 employees across the globe.”

Cash Position and Capital Allocation
Net cash provided by operating activities of $111.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 compared to $131.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. 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, and higher income taxes paid, which was partially offset by lower non-compensation-related operating expenses and slightly higher cash collections compared to the prior year quarter.

Cash and cash equivalents of $304.7 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $258.5 million at September 30, 2019 and $304.2 million at June 30, 2020. Total debt, net of cash, of $36.6 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $57.8 million at September 30, 2019 and $47.0 million at June 30, 2020. The sequential decrease in total debt, net of cash, was primarily due to net cash provided by operating activities which exceeded cash used for share repurchases and acquisitions.

During the quarter, the Company repurchased 749,315 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $110.57 for a total cost of $82.9 million. As of September 30, 2020, approximately $182.4 million remained available for stock repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase authorization.

Third Quarter 2020 Segment Results

Corporate Finance & Restructuring
Revenues in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment increased $44.9 million, or 23.4%, to $236.6 million in the quarter compared to $191.7 million in the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $8.5 million, or 4.4% of the increase, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand and higher realized bill rates for restructuring services compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $56.2 million, or 23.8% of segment revenues, compared to $48.1 million, or 25.1% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was due to higher revenues, which was partially offset by higher compensation, primarily related to a 36.6% increase in billable headcount and higher variable compensation compared to the prior year quarter.

Forensic and Litigation Consulting
Revenues in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment decreased $23.5 million, or 16.5%, to $119.1 million in the quarter compared to $142.7 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to lower demand for disputes and investigations services. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $13.6 million, or 11.4% of segment revenues, compared to $27.0 million, or 18.9% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was primarily due to lower revenues with lower utilization, which was partially offset by a decline in SG&A expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Economic Consulting
Revenues in the Economic Consulting segment increased $13.3 million, or 9.4%, to $155.0 million in the quarter compared to $141.7 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated positive impact from FX, revenues increased $11.4 million, or 8.1%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand and realized bill rates for merger and acquisition ("M&A")-related antitrust services, which was partially offset by lower realized bill rates for non-M&A-related antitrust services. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $25.7 million, or 16.6% of segment revenues, compared to $19.4 million, or 13.7% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was due to higher revenues, which was partially offset by higher compensation, primarily related to a 15.2% increase in billable headcount and higher variable compensation compared to the prior year quarter.

Technology
Revenues in the Technology segment increased $1.5 million, or 2.6%, to $58.6 million in the quarter compared to $57.1 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand for global cross-border investigation and litigation services. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $11.9 million, or 20.4% of segment revenues, compared to $12.3 million, or 21.5% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA declined compared to the prior year quarter as the increase in revenues was more than offset by higher compensation, primarily related to a 13.2% increase in billable headcount.

Strategic Communications
Revenues in the Strategic Communications segment decreased $7.0 million, or 11.7%, to $53.0 million in the quarter compared to $60.0 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated positive impact from FX, revenues decreased $8.2 million, or 13.7%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to lower demand for corporate reputation and financial communications services and a $2.3 million decline in pass-through revenues. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $8.4 million, or 15.9% of segment revenues, compared to $12.6 million, or 21.1% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was primarily due to lower revenues compared to the prior year quarter.

This compares to the previous revenue range of $2.45 billion to $2.55 billion. The Company now estimates that 2020 EPS will range between $4.93 and $5.43.

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 measures are considered "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 definition 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 Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues.

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 Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share ("Adjusted EPS"), which are non-GAAP financial measures, as net income and earnings per diluted share ("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 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 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.
