ITEM 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
On July 28, 2005, FTI Consulting, Inc. (FTI) announced our financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005, as well as other information, including operating results by business segment and other developments. The full text of the Press Release (and Financial Tables) is set forth in Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
The Press Release contains some discussion regarding FTIs earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and EBITDA by business segment, and EBITDA after potential litigation settlement (Adjusted EBITDA) and segment Adjusted EBITDA. Although EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, FTI believes that they are useful operating performance measures for evaluating our results of operations from period to period and as compared to our competitors. EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by investors, financial analysts and rating agencies to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry. FTI uses EBITDA to evaluate and compare the operating performances of its segments and it is one of the primary measures used to determine employee bonuses. FTI also uses EBITDA to value businesses it acquires or anticipates acquiring. A reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings is included in the accompanying Financial Tables to the Press Release furnished as Exhibit 99.1. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies unless the definition is the same. In addition, because the calculation of EBITDA in the maintenance covenants contained in FTIs credit facilities is based on accounting policies in use, consistently applied from the time the indebtedness was incurred, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures are also indicative of FTIs capacity to service debt and thereby provides additional useful information to investors regarding FTIs financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of the covenants set forth in our senior secured credit facility are not calculated in the same manner as calculated for purposes of the attached Financial Tables accompanying the Press Release.
The information included herein, including Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith, shall be deemed not to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities 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.

Note: Although EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with GAAP, FTI believes that it is a useful operating performance measure for evaluating its results of operations from period to period and as compared to its competitors. EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by investors, financial analysts and rating agencies to value and compare the financial performance of companies in its industry. FTI uses EBITDA to evaluate and compare the operating performance of its segments and it is one of the primary measures used to determine employee bonuses. FTI also uses EBITDA to value businesses it acquires or anticipates acquiring. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings and EBITDA is included in the accompanying tables to this press release. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies unless the definition is the same. In addition, because the calculation of EBITDA in the maintenance covenants contained in FTIs credit facilities is based on accounting policies in use, consistently applied from the time the indebtedness was incurred, Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA as supplemental financial measures are also indicative of the companys capacity to service debt and thereby provides additional useful information to investors regarding the companys financial condition and results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA for purposes of those covenants are not calculated in the same manner as they are calculated in the accompanying table.
This press release includes forward-looking statements that involve uncertainties and risks. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from the companys expectations. The company has experienced fluctuating revenues, operating income and cash flow in some prior periods and expects this may occur from time to time in the future. As a result of these possible fluctuations, the companys actual results may differ from our projections. Further, preliminary results are subject to normal year-end adjustments. Other factors that could cause such differences include pace and timing of additional acquisitions, the companys ability to realize cost savings and efficiencies, competitive and general economic conditions, retention of staff and clients and other risks described in the companys filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004
(1) | We define EBITDA (earnings before net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as operating income before depreciation and amortization which may not be similar to EBITDA measures of other companies. EBITDA is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statement of operations. We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our ongoing business operations, including our ability to fund capital expenditures and service debt. While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under generally accepted accounting principles, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. EBITDA is a common alternative performance measure used by investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to evaluate and compare the operating performance and value of companies with our industry. |
(2) | Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding certain gains, losses and other charges that do not relate to the ongoing operations of our business. Adjusted EBITDA as defined above may not be similar to Adjusted EBITDA measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our statements of income. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it allows investors to evaluate our operating results and related financial performance for different periods on a more comparable basis by excluding items that do not relate to the ongoing operations of our business. |
(3) | Effective January 1, 2005, we modified our calculation of average billable rate per hour to include revenue realization adjustments and success fees earned as part of employee revenues. Average billable rates per hour for prior periods have been adjusted to conform to our current presentation. |
