FTI Consulting Reports Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Washington, D.C., July 29, 2021 — FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today released financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Second quarter 2021 revenues of $711.5 million increased $103.6 million, or 17.0%, compared to revenues of $607.9 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated positive impact from foreign currency translation (“FX”), revenues increased $78.9 million, or 13.0%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $19.1 million in the quarter. Excluding the estimated positive impact of FX and acquisition-related revenues, revenues increased $59.8 million, or 9.8%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher demand in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Technology and Economic Consulting segments. Net income of $62.8 million compared to $48.2 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in net income was primarily due to higher operating profits in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Technology and Economic Consulting segments, which was partially offset by lower operating profits in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment compared to the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA of $92.3 million, or 13.0% of revenues, compared to $75.8 million, or 12.5% of revenues, in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was due to higher revenues, which was partially offset by higher compensation, primarily related to a 10.1% increase in billable headcount and higher variable compensation, as well as an increase in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Second quarter 2021 diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $1.77 compared to $1.27 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 (“2023 Convertible Notes”), which decreased EPS by $0.06. Second quarter 2021 Adjusted EPS of $1.74, which excludes the fair value remeasurement and non-cash interest expense, compared to Adjusted EPS of $1.32 in the prior year quarter.

Steven H. Gunby, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTI Consulting, commented, “Our continued strong results reflect our multi-year commitment to attract, develop and support the best professionals and thereby invest behind our leading positions and emerging adjacencies. That powerful trajectory leaves me ever more convinced of our ability going forward to help our clients with an ever-increasing share of their most significant challenges and opportunities.”

Cash Position and Capital Allocation

Net cash provided by operating activities of $125.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to $153.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The year-over-year decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was largely due to an increase in salaries, primarily related to headcount growth, which was partially offset by an increase in cash collected compared to the prior year quarter.

Cash and cash equivalents of $256.9 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $304.2 million at June 30, 2020 and $233.4 million at March 31, 2021. Total debt, net of cash, of $159.4 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $47.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $252.8 million at March 31, 2021. The sequential decrease in total debt, net of cash, was primarily due to repayment of borrowings under the Company’s senior secured bank revolving credit facility.

There were no share repurchases during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, approximately $167.1 million remained available for common stock repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase authorization.

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:

We have included the definitions of Segment Operating Income (Loss) 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 (Loss) 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 (Loss) for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Segment Operating Income (Loss) 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.
