Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollar and share amounts in tables expressed in thousands, except per share data)

Unaudited

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of FTI Consulting, Inc. including its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “FTI Consulting”) presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Some of the information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. See Note 15 “Segment Reporting” for information on our segment reclassification. In management’s opinion, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All adjustments made were normal recurring accruals. Results of operations for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013, in which we reclassified historical segment information on a basis consistent with our current segment reporting structure.

2. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share adjust basic earnings per share for the effects of potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares include the dilutive effects of shares issuable under our equity compensation plans, including stock options and restricted stock, and, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, shares issuable upon the potential conversion of our 3³/₄% senior subordinated convertible notes due on July 15, 2012 (“Convertible Notes”), each using the treasury stock method. In addition, the conversion feature of our Convertible Notes had a dilutive effect on our earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, assuming the conversion premium was converted into common stock based on the average closing price per share of our stock during those periods, because the average closing price per share of our common stock for such periods was above the conversion price of the Convertible Notes of $31.25 per share.

3. New Accounting Standards Not yet Adopted

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (“ASU 2013-05”). ASU 2013-05 updates accounting guidance related to the application of consolidation guidance and foreign currency matters, and resolves the diversity in practice about what guidance applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income. ASU 2013-05 requires that the entire amount of a cumulative translation adjustment related to an entity’s investment in a foreign entity should be released when there has been a: (i) sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity, (ii) loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity, and (iii) step acquisition for a foreign entity. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. This ASU would impact the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition only in the instance of an event/transaction as described above.

4. Special Charges

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded special charges totaling $29.6 million, of which $5.0 million was non-cash. The charges reflect actions we took to realign our workforce to address current business demands and global macro-economic conditions impacting our Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Strategic Communications and Technology segments, to address certain targeted practices within our Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Economic Consulting segments, and to reduce excess real estate capacity. These actions included the termination of 116 employees, the consolidation of leased office space within nine office locations and certain other actions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recorded an adjustment to the special charge recorded in 2012 of approximately $0.4 million, primarily related to the consolidation of office spaces previously vacated. This adjustment reflects changes to sublease terms and associated costs for those locations for which actual subleases have been entered into during the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as well as the impact of updated forecasts of expected sublease income and employee termination costs.

The following table details the special charges by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. We did not record any special charges in the three months ended June 30, 2013.


	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2013			2012
Corporate Finance/Restructuring	$	10,561	$	68		$	10,561
Forensic and Litigation Consulting		7,808		173			7,808
Economic Consulting		818		(4	)		818
Technology		2,966		14			2,966
Strategic Communications		4,511		64			4,511

		26,664		315			26,664
Unallocated Corporate		118		112			118

Total	$	26,782	$	427		$	26,782

The total cash outflow associated with the special charges is expected to be $24.7 million, of which $13.1 million has been paid as of June 30, 2013. Approximately, $3.2 million is expected to be paid during the remainder of 2013, $2.7 million is expected to be paid in 2014, $1.2 million is expected to be paid in 2015, $0.8 million is expected to be paid in 2016, and the remaining balance of $3.7 million related to lease costs will be paid from 2017 to 2025. A liability for the current and noncurrent portions of the amounts to be paid is included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other” and “Other liabilities,” respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Activity related to the liability for these costs for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:


	Employee Termination Costs			Lease Costs			Total
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	6,696		$	8,517		$	15,213
Additions		(100	)		527			427
Payments		(1,924	)		(1,936	)		(3,860	)
Foreign currency translation adjustment and other		(162	)		—			(162	)

Balance at June 30, 2013	$	4,510		$	7,108		$	11,618

5. Provision for Doubtful Accounts

The provision for doubtful accounts is recorded after the related work has been billed to the client and we determine that full collectability is not reasonably assured. It is classified in “Selling, general and administrative expense” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The provision for doubtful accounts totaled $3.4 million and $7.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $2.5 million and $7.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

6. Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs related to software development totaled $3.5 million and $7.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $5.1 million and $11.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Research and development costs are included in “Selling, general and administrative expense” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

7. Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We consider the recorded value of certain financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, based on the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities. The fair value of our long-term debt at June 30, 2013 was $743.0 million compared to a carrying value of $723.0 million. At December 31, 2012, the fair value of our long-term debt was $762.0 million compared to a carrying value of $723.0 million. We determine the fair value of our long-term debt primarily based on quoted market prices for our 6³/₄% Senior Notes Due 2020 (“2020 Notes”) and 6.0% Senior Notes Due 2022 (“2022 Notes”). The fair value of our long-term debt is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, because it is traded in less active markets.

For business combinations consummated on or after January 1, 2009, we estimate the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration based on management’s probability-weighted present value of the consideration expected to be transferred during the remainder of the earnout period, based on the acquired operations’ forecasted earnings. This fair value measure is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Fair value measurements characterized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are measured based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect our own assumptions in measuring fair value.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of our acquisition-related contingent consideration include our measures of the future profitability and related cash flows of the acquired business or assets, impacted by appropriate discount rates. Significant increases (decreases) in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumptions used for the discount rates is accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the fair value measurement and a change in the assumptions used for the future cash flows is accompanied by a directionally

similar change in the fair value measurement. The fair value of the contingent consideration is reassessed on a quarterly basis by the Company based on a collaborative effort of the Company’s operations, finance and accounting groups using additional information as it becomes available. Any change in the fair value of an acquisition’s contingent consideration liability results in a remeasurement gain or loss that is recorded in the earnings of that period.

Remeasurement gains or losses are recorded as income or expense, respectively and are included within “Acquisition-related contingent consideration” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). During the three months ended June 30, 2013, management determined that the fair value of the contingent consideration liability for one of its acquisitions had declined and recorded a remeasurement gain of $8.2 million compared to a gain of $4.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

Accretion expense for acquisition-related contingent consideration totaled $0.8 million and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

The following table represents the changes in the acquisition-related contingent consideration liability during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012

⁽¹⁾	Includes adjustments during the purchase price allocation period.

⁽²⁾	Includes adjustments to fair value related to accretion and remeasurement of contingent consideration which are recorded in “Acquisition-related contingent consideration” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

⁽³⁾

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we fixed an acquisition-related contingent consideration liability in the amount of $2.5 million. The non-contingent consideration liability is no longer required to be remeasured to fair value and, accordingly, is not classified as a Level 3 measurement.

8. Acquisitions

Certain acquisition-related restricted stock agreements entered into prior to January 1, 2009 contained stock price guarantees that would result in cash payments if our per share price fell below a specified per share market value on the date that the applicable stock restrictions lapsed (the “determination date”). For those acquisitions, the settlement of the stock price guarantees related to our common stock price was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as of the determination dates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we paid $3.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively, in cash in relation to the stock price guarantees on certain shares of common stock that became unrestricted, which was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2013, no further acquisition-related stock price guarantees are outstanding.

2013 Acquisitions

During the second quarter of 2013, we completed two business combinations. The total purchase price included initial consideration with a value of $26.8 million plus acquisition-related contingent consideration. The contingent consideration is payable through the next five years if the acquired businesses meet certain performance measures.

During the first quarter of 2013, we completed two business combinations. The total purchase price included initial consideration with a value of $9.1 million plus, for one of the business combinations, acquisition-related contingent consideration. The contingent consideration is payable annually through December 31, 2017 if the acquired business meets certain performance measures, and is subject to an $8.0 million aggregate cap.

For acquisitions completed during the six months ended June 30, 2013, as part of the preliminary purchase price allocations, we recorded $9.4 million in identifiable intangible assets and $27.2 million in goodwill. The estimated fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration of $8.2 million is recorded in “Other liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Pro forma results of operations were not presented because these acquisitions were not material in relation to our consolidated financial position or results of operations for the periods presented.

9. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by operating segment for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are as follows:


	Corporate Finance/ Restructuring			Forensic and Litigation Consulting			Economic Consulting			Technology			Strategic Communications			Total

⁽²⁾	Includes the reclassification of the Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment’s healthcare and life sciences practices into the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment. See Note 15 “Segment Reporting” for information on this segment reclassification.

Other intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. For intangible assets with finite lives, we recorded amortization expense of $6.0 million and $11.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively and $5.7 million and $11.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30,

2012, respectively. Based solely on the amortizable intangible assets recorded as of June 30, 2013, we estimate amortization expense to be $10.8 million during the remainder of 2013, $13.2 million in 2014, $12.2 million in 2015, $10.7 million in 2016, $9.9 million in 2017, $8.6 million in 2018, and $30.7 million in years after 2018. Actual amortization expense to be reported in future periods could differ from these estimates as a result of new intangible asset acquisitions, finalization of asset valuations for newly acquired assets, changes in useful lives, and changes in value due to foreign currency translation or other factors.

6.0% Senior Notes Due 2022

On November 27, 2012, we completed the private offering of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 2022 Notes. The 2022 Notes were issued at a price of 100% of their principal amount. The 2022 Notes and related guarantees were offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States (“U.S.”) to non-U.S. persons in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Regulation S under the Securities Act. On May 22, 2013, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC to register the exchange offer of the 2022 Notes for publicly registered senior notes with identical terms, which was declared effective on June 27, 2013. The Company completed the exchange offer of all outstanding 2022 Notes for publically registered notes on July 26, 2013.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

We are subject to legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In management’s opinion, we believe we have adequate legal defenses and/or insurance coverage with respect to the resolutions of such actions. We do not believe any potential settlement or judgment would materially affect our financial position or results of operations.

12. Share-Based Compensation

Share-based Awards and Share-based Compensation Expense

Our officers, employees, non-employee directors and certain individual service providers are eligible to participate in the Company’s equity compensation plans, subject to the discretion of the administrator of the plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we granted an aggregate of 857,328 share-based awards, consisting primarily of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and stock options.

Total share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is detailed in the following table:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
Comprehensive Income Statement Classification	2013		2012		2013		2012
Direct cost of revenues	$	3,742	$	3,025	$	10,699	$	9,408

Special charges		—		814		—		814

Total share-based compensation expense	$	7,266	$	7,078	$	17,199	$	17,381

13. Income Taxes

During the second quarter of 2013, we determined that certain deferred tax assets associated with U.S. future foreign tax credits no longer met the “more-likely-than-not” test regarding the realization of those assets primarily due to lower forecasted foreign earnings. Accordingly, the Company increased the valuation allowance against its U.S. future foreign tax credit assets, resulting in a discrete adjustment to the income tax provision in the amount of $6.9 million. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, valuation allowances of $9.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively, were recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. We have not established a valuation allowance for any of our other deferred tax assets as we expect that future taxable income as well as the reversal of temporary differences will enable us to fully utilize our deferred tax assets.

As of June 30, 2013, all of the Company’s undistributed non-U.S. subsidiary earnings are considered permanently invested. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2013, we have not provided for deferred taxes on $15.7 million of the undistributed non-U.S. subsidiary earnings. A deferred tax liability will be recognized if and when the Company is no longer able to demonstrate that it plans to permanently reinvest undistributed earnings. If these earnings were repatriated, the Company would be subject to U.S. income taxes. The amount of the unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax liability associated with the indefinitely reinvested undistributed earnings is estimated to be approximately $5.5 million as of June 30, 2013.

Our liability for uncertain tax positions was $2.3 million and $3.8 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company effectively settled certain prior year tax matters. As a result, the Company reversed approximately $2.2 million of its liability for uncertain tax positions.

The Company has estimated its annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year 2013 and applied that rate to its income before income taxes in determining its provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company also records discrete items in each respective period as appropriate. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded net discrete adjustments of $7.1 million to the income tax provision that resulted in an effective tax rate of 49.8%, as compared to an effective tax rate of 31.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Excluding the impact of this item, the Company’s effective tax rate would have been 34.6%. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded net discrete adjustments of $4.6 million to the income tax provision that resulted in an effective tax rate of 41.3%, as compared to an effective tax rate of 35.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Excluding the impact of these items, the Company’s effective tax rate would have been 35.6%.

14. Stockholders’ Equity

On June 6, 2012, our Board of Directors authorized a two-year stock repurchase program of up to $250.0 million (the “2012 Repurchase Program”). During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we repurchased and retired 826,800 shares of our common stock for an average price per share of $34.78, with a value equivalent to approximately $28.8 million. No share repurchases were made during the three months ended June 30, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2012 we repurchased and retired 1,681,029 shares of our common stock for an average price per share of $29.76 with a value equivalent to approximately $50.0 million. As of June 30, 2013, a balance of approximately $171.2 million remained available under the 2012 Repurchase Program.

15. Segment Reporting

We manage our business in five reportable segments: Corporate Finance/Restructuring, Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Economic Consulting, Technology and Strategic Communications.

Our Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment focuses on strategic, operational, financial and capital needs of businesses around the world and provides consulting and advisory services on a wide range of areas, such as restructuring (including bankruptcy), interim management, financings, mergers and acquisitions, post-acquisition integration, valuations, tax issues and performance improvement.

Our Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government clients and other interested parties with dispute advisory, investigations, forensic accounting, business intelligence assessments, data analytics, risk mitigation services as well as interim management and performance improvement services for our health solutions practice clients.

Our Economic Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government entities and other interested parties with analysis of complex economic issues for use in legal, regulatory and international arbitration proceedings, strategic decision making and public policy debates in the U.S. and around the world.

Our Technology segment provides electronic discovery and information management consulting, software and services to its clients. It provides products, services and consulting to companies, law firms, courts and government agencies worldwide. Its comprehensive suite of software and services help clients locate, review and produce electronically stored information, including e-mail, computer files, voicemail, instant messaging, and financial and transactional data.

Our Strategic Communications segment provides advice and consulting services relating to financial and corporate communications and investor relations, reputation management and brand communications, public affairs, business consulting and digital design and marketing.

Effective in the first quarter of 2013, we modified our reportable segments to reflect changes in how we operate our business and the related internal management reporting. The Company’s healthcare and life sciences

practices from both our Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment and our Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment have been combined under a single organizational structure. This single integrated practice, our health solutions practice, is now aggregated in its entirety within the Forensic and Litigation Consulting reportable segment. Prior period Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on Adjusted Segment EBITDA. We define Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, special charges and goodwill impairment charges. We define Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA as the total of Adjusted Segment EBITDA for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. Although Adjusted Segment EBITDA is not a measure of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with GAAP, we use Adjusted Segment EBITDA to internally evaluate the financial performance of our segments because we believe it is a useful supplemental measure which reflects current core operating performance and provides an indicator of the segment’s ability to generate cash.

The table below presents revenues and Adjusted Segment EBITDA for our reportable segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and significant factors that could affect our prospective financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read together with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013, in which we reclassified historical segment information on a basis consistent with our current segment reporting structure. Historical results and any discussion of prospective results may not indicate our future performance. See “—Forward-Looking Statements.”

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a leading global business advisory firm dedicated to helping organizations protect and enhance their enterprise value. We work closely with our clients to help them anticipate, understand, manage and overcome complex business matters arising from such factors as the economy, financial and credit markets, governmental regulation, legislation and litigation. We assist clients in addressing a broad range of business challenges, such as restructuring (including bankruptcy), financing and credit issues and indebtedness, interim business management, forensic accounting and litigation matters, international arbitrations, mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”), antitrust and competition matters, electronic discovery (“e-discovery”), management and retrieval of electronically stored information (“ESI”), reputation management and strategic communications. We also provide services to help our clients take advantage of economic, regulatory, financial and other business opportunities. Our experienced teams of professionals include many individuals who are widely recognized as experts in their respective fields. We believe clients retain us because of our recognized expertise and capabilities in highly specialized areas as well as our reputation for satisfying client needs.

We report financial results for the following five reportable segments:

Our Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment focuses on strategic, operational, financial and capital needs of businesses around the world and provides consulting and advisory services on a wide range of areas, such as restructuring (including bankruptcy), interim management, financings, M&A, post-acquisition integration, valuations, tax issues and performance improvement.

Our Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government clients and other interested parties with dispute advisory, investigations, forensic accounting, business intelligence assessments, data analytics, risk mitigation services as well as interim management and performance improvement services for our health solutions practice clients.

Our Economic Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government entities and other interested parties with analysis of complex economic issues for use in legal, regulatory and international arbitration proceedings, strategic decision making and public policy debates in the United States (“U.S.”) and around the world.

Our Technology segment provides e-discovery and information management consulting, software and services to its clients. It provides products, services and consulting to companies, law firms, courts and government agencies worldwide. Its comprehensive suite of software and services help clients locate, review and produce ESI, including e-mail, computer files, voicemail, instant messaging and financial and transactional data.

Our Strategic Communications segment provides advice and consulting services relating to financial and corporate communications and investor relations, reputation management and brand communications, public affairs, business consulting and digital design and marketing.

As of January 1, 2013, the Company’s financial results reflect a combination of the healthcare and life sciences focused personnel that were formerly included in the Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Forensic and

Litigation Consulting segments, into a single integrated practice. The newly combined health solutions practice consists of over 200 professionals dedicated to serving this growth industry. In the first quarter of 2013, we modified our reportable segments to reflect the changes described above. The Company’s health solutions practice is now aggregated in its entirety in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting reportable segment. Prior period Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

We derive substantially all of our revenues from providing professional services to both U.S. and global clients. Most of our services are rendered under time and expense arrangements that obligate the client to pay us a fee for the hours that we incur at agreed upon rates. Under this arrangement, we typically bill our clients for reimbursable expenses, which may include the cost of producing our work product and other direct expenses that we incur on behalf of the client, such as travel costs. We also render services for which certain clients may be required to pay us a fixed-fee or recurring retainer. These arrangements are generally cancellable at any time. Some of our engagements contain performance-based arrangements in which we earn a success fee when and if certain predefined outcomes occur. This type of success fee may supplement a time-and-expense or fixed-fee arrangement. Success fee revenues may cause variations in our revenues and operating results due to the timing of achieving the performance-based criteria.

In our Technology segment, certain clients are billed based on the amount of data stored on our electronic systems, the volume of information processed and the number of users licensing our Ringtail^® software products for installation within their own environments. We license these products directly to end users as well as indirectly through our channel partner relationships. Unit-based revenue is defined as revenue billed on a per-item, per-page, or some other unit-based method and includes revenue from data processing and hosting, software usage and software licensing. Unit-based revenue includes revenue associated with our proprietary software that is made available to customers, either via a web browser (“on-demand”) or installed at our customer or partner locations (“on-premise”). On-demand revenue is charged on a unit or monthly basis and includes, but is not limited to, processing and review related functions. On-premise revenue is comprised of up-front license fees, with recurring support and maintenance.

Over the past several years the growth in our revenues has resulted from our ability to attract new and recurring engagements and from the acquisitions we have completed. Seasonal factors, such as the timing of our employees’ and clients’ vacations and holidays, impact the timing of our revenues.

Our financial results are primarily driven by:

•

the number, size and type of engagements we secure;

•

the rate per hour or fixed charges we charge our clients for services;

•

the utilization of the revenue-generating professionals we employ;

•

the number and experience mix of revenue-generating professionals;

•

fees from clients on a retained basis or other;

•

licensing of our software products and other technology services;

•

the types of assignments we are working on at different times;

•

the length of the billing and collection cycles; and

•

the geographic locations of our clients or locations in which services are rendered.

Non-GAAP Measures

In the accompanying analysis of financial information, we sometimes use information derived from consolidated and segment financial information that is not presented in our financial statements and prepared in

accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Certain of these measures are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under the SEC rules. Specifically, we have referred to:

•

Segment Operating Income

•

Total Segment Operating Income

•

Adjusted EBITDA

•

Adjusted Segment EBITDA

•

Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA

•

Adjusted Net Income

•

Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share

We define Segment Operating Income as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income. We define Total Segment Operating Income 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 EBITDA as consolidated net income before income tax provision, other non-operating income (expense), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, special charges and goodwill impairment charges. We define Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, special charges and goodwill impairment charges. We define Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA as the total of Adjusted Segment EBITDA for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Adjusted Segment EBITDA to internally evaluate the financial performance of our segments because we believe it is a useful supplemental measure which reflects current core operating performance and provides an indicator of the segment’s ability to generate cash. We also believe that these measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of our operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of special charges and goodwill impairment charges. 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 measures, considered along with corresponding GAAP measures, provide management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating results to the operating results of other companies.

We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share as net income and earnings per diluted share, respectively, excluding the impact of special charges, goodwill impairment charges and losses on early extinguishment of debt. We use Adjusted Net Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share. Management uses Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share to assess total company operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that this measure, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of 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 our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are included elsewhere in this filing.

We define acquisition growth as the results of operations of acquired companies in the first twelve months following the effective date of an acquisition. Our definition of organic growth is the change in the results of operations excluding the impact of all such acquisitions.

Second Quarter 2013 Executive Highlights

Revenues

Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 increased $18.4 million, or 4.6%, to $414.6 million, compared to $396.2 million in the same prior year period. Revenues grew largely due to $13 million of revenue generated by acquired businesses in our Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment. Revenues increased organically 0.9% due to strong demand for our Economic Consulting and Strategic Communications segments in the North America and Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) regions as well as increased volumes for merger and acquisition (“M&A”) related second request document review services in our Technology segment. These increases were partially offset by weak demand for our bankruptcy and restructuring practices in our Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment in the North America and Asia Pacific regions.

Special Charges

There were no special charges recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $26.8 million in special charges recorded in the same prior year period. The June 30, 2012 special charges were primarily related to staff reductions and leased real estate consolidations.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA increased $7.6 million, or 11.4%, to $74.2 million, or 17.9% of revenues, compared to $66.6 million, or 16.8% of revenues, in the same prior year period. The Company reduced its acquisition-related contingent consideration liability related to business operations in Asia that were acquired in 2010, based upon a revaluation of the consideration expected to be paid over the remaining earn out period. The $8.2 million non-cash valuation adjustment was recorded as a revaluation gain and is included within “Acquisition-related contingent consideration” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Approximately $6.3 million of the revaluation gain was recorded in the Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment, with $1.9 million recorded in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment. A similar revaluation gain of $4.1 million was recorded in the same prior year period, of which $3.8 million was recorded in the Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment and $0.3 million was recorded in the Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment.

Excluding the impact of the revaluation gain, Adjusted EBITDA increased primarily from a reduction in performance-based compensation expense, increased volumes in our Technology segment and higher utilization in our Economic Consulting segment, partially offset by under-utilization in our bankruptcy and restructuring practices in our Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment in the North America region.

Net Income

Net income increased $15.8 million to $23.5 million, compared to the $7.7 million in the same prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to the $26.8 million special charge made in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that was not present in the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 included a favorable $7.1 million after-tax impact related to a revaluation gain, compared to a favorable after-tax impact of approximately $3.2 million related to a revaluation gain in the same prior year period. Additionally, a $6.9 million non-cash valuation reserve was recorded to reduce a deferred tax asset previously established to reflect the benefit of future foreign tax credits which, based on a current assessment, may not be realizable in the future. This valuation reserve was recorded as an increase in income tax expense for the quarter.

Earnings per share and Adjusted EPS

Earnings per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $0.58, compared to $0.18 in the same prior year period, as the prior year period included a special charge of $26.8 million primarily related to staff reductions and leased real estate consolidations. Earnings per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 included an $8.2 million revaluation gain resulting in a $0.18 increase in EPS and Adjusted EPS and an unfavorable $6.9 million deferred tax valuation reserve resulting in a $0.17 decrease in EPS and Adjusted EPS for the quarter compared to a favorable revaluation gain of $4.1 million resulting in a $0.08 increase in EPS and Adjusted EPS in the same prior year period. Adjusted earnings per diluted share, which exclude the impact of the special charge, were $0.58, compared to $0.60 in the same prior year period due to the impact of the operating results described above.

Operating cash flows

Cash provided from operating activities for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $21.7 million compared to $0.5 million for the same prior year period. The increase was the result of higher cash collections on accounts receivable, partially offset by bonuses paid and higher tax payments. Cash collections for the quarter were strong at $396 million.

Headcount

Headcount increased by 185, or 4.8%, to 4,040.

Billable headcount increased in the Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment as a result of acquisitions, in the Economic Consulting segment to support growing operations, and Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment related to growth in our health solutions practice, partially offset by a decrease in our Technology segment.

Other strategic activities

On April 4, 2013, the Company announced the acquisition of the operations of Taylor Woodings partnership, an Australian specialist corporate advisory firm with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane. On May 1, 2013, the Company announced the acquisition of the operations of Princeton Economics Group, an economic consulting firm based in Princeton, N.J. The Taylor Woodings acquisition expanded the geographic footprint and service offerings of FTI Consulting in Australia, adding nearly 80 professionals into the Company’s Corporate/Finance Restructuring segment, and the Princeton Economics Consulting Group acquisition added 10 professionals to the Company’s Economic Consulting segment, enhancing capacity within antitrust and competition economics services.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

Revenues and operating income

See “Segment Results” for an expanded discussion of segment revenues and operating income.

Unallocated corporate expenses

Unallocated corporate expenses decreased $3.2 million, or 18.3%, to $14.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $17.8 million for the same prior year period. The decrease was due to a reduction in performance-based compensation expense and lower spending on core marketing, partially offset by higher legal fees in the three months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the same prior year period.

Interest income and other

Interest income and other, which includes foreign currency transaction gains and losses was a loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, which was unchanged from a loss of $0.4 million for the same prior year period.

Interest expense

Interest expense was $13.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $15.2 million for the same prior year period. Interest expense in 2013 was favorably impacted by lower average borrowings, interest rates and deferred financing fees in 2013 as compared to 2012, primarily due to the repayment in July 2012 of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3³/₄% senior subordinated convertible notes (“Convertible Notes”) and the extinguishment of the $215.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7³/₄% senior notes due 2016 (“2016 Notes”) in the fourth quarter of 2012, which was partially offset by interest expense relating to the issuance of the $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.0% senior notes due 2022 (“2022 Notes”) in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Special charges

During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we recorded special charges totaling $26.8 million, of which $4.6 million was non-cash. The charges reflect actions we took to realign our workforce to address current business demands and global macro-economic conditions impacting our Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Strategic Communications and Technology segments, to address certain targeted practices within our Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Economic Consulting segments and to reduce excess real estate capacity. These actions included the termination of 116 employees, the consolidation of leased office space within six office locations and certain other actions.

The following table details the special charge adjustments by segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2012:


	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012
	Special Charges		Total Headcount
Corporate Finance/Restructuring	$	10,561		4
Forensic and Litigation Consulting		7,808		43
Economic Consulting		818		8
Technology		2,966		42
Strategic Communications		4,511		15

		26,664		112
Unallocated Corporate		118		4

Total	$	26,782		116

We did not record any special charges in the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Income tax provision

Our provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying our estimated annual effective tax rate against income before income tax expense for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items are recorded during the period in which they occur or become known. The effective tax rate was 49.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 31.3% for the same prior year period. During the second quarter of 2013, we recorded a deferred tax valuation reserve related to foreign tax credits, primarily due to lower forecasted foreign earnings, resulting in an increase to the income tax provision in the amount of $6.9 million. Excluding the impact of the discrete item, the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2013 would have been 34.6%, higher than the same prior year period due to the impact from a change in the mix of earnings by jurisdiction, both state and foreign, and certain non-deductible expenses relating to acquisitions completed in 2013.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Revenues and operating income

See “Segment Results” for an expanded discussion of segment revenues and operating income.

Unallocated corporate expenses

Unallocated corporate expenses decreased $8.3 million, or 20.6%, to $31.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $40.1 million for the same prior year period. The decrease was due to a reduction in performance-based compensation expense, lower spending on core marketing and lower costs related to strategic planning activities in the six months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the same prior year period.

Interest income and other

Interest income and other, which includes foreign currency transaction gains and losses, decreased by $2.3 million to $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $2.9 million for the same prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to net foreign currency transaction losses in the period ended June 30, 2013 as compared to net gains in the same prior year period. Transaction gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, relate to the remeasurement or settlement of monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency. These monetary assets and liabilities include current intercompany receivables and payables. The foreign exchange losses in the six months ended June 30, 2013 were primarily the result of the strengthening of the US dollar and Hong Kong dollar relative to the Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and British pound.

Interest expense

Interest expense was $25.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $30.4 million for the same prior year period. Interest expense in 2013 was favorably impacted by lower average borrowings, interest rates and deferred financing fees in 2013 as compared to 2012, primarily due to the repayment in July 2012 of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes and the extinguishment of the 2016 Notes in the fourth quarter of 2012, which was partially offset by interest expense relating to the issuance of the 2022 Notes in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Special charges

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded adjustments to the special charges recorded in 2012 of approximately $0.4 million, primarily related to the consolidation of office spaces previously vacated. These charges reflect the changes to sublease terms and associated costs for those locations for which actual subleases have been entered into during the six months ended June 30, 2013, as well as the impact of updated forecasts of expected sublease income and employee termination costs.

The following table details the special charges by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:


	Six Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013					2012
	Special Charges			Total Headcount		Special Charges		Total Headcount

Income tax provision

Our provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying our estimated annual effective tax rate against income before income tax expense for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items are recorded during the period in which they occur or become known. The effective tax rate was 41.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 35.0% for the same period in 2012 due to an increase in income tax expense related to a discrete adjustment recorded in the period. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded a deferred tax valuation reserve related to foreign tax credits, primarily due to lower forecasted foreign earnings, resulting in a discrete increase to the income tax provision in the amount of $6.9 million. We also recognized the impact of a discrete benefit related to the favorable resolution of an income tax contingency in the amount of $2.2 million. Excluding the impact of these discrete items, the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been 35.6%, comparable to the effective tax rate in the same prior year period.

⁽¹⁾

We calculate the utilization rate for our billable professionals by dividing the number of hours that all of our billable professionals worked on client assignments during a period by the total available working hours for all of our billable professionals during the same period. Available hours are determined by the standard hours worked by each employee, adjusted for part-time hours, local country standard work weeks and local country holidays. Available working hours include vacation and professional training days, but exclude holidays. Utilization rates are presented for our segments that primarily bill clients on an hourly basis. We have not presented a utilization rate for our Technology segment and Strategic Communications segment as most of the revenues of these segments are not generated on an hourly basis.

⁽²⁾

For engagements where revenues are based on number of hours worked by our billable professionals, average billable rate per hour is calculated by dividing revenues for a period by the number of hours worked on client assignments during the same period. We have not presented an average billable rate per hour for our Technology and Strategic Communications segments as most of the revenues of these segments are not based on billable hours.

⁽³⁾

2013 and 2012 utilization and average bill rate calculations for our Corporate Finance/Restructuring, Forensic and Litigation Consulting, and Economic Consulting segments were updated to reflect the realignment of certain practices as well as information related to non-U.S. operations that was not previously available.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

Revenues decreased $1.2 million, or 1.1%, to $105.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $106.3 million for the same prior year period. The decline was primarily attributable to the decrease in demand in our North America investigation and trial services practices, partially offset by higher average bill rates as a result of staff mix in our North America disputes and investigations practices and success fees in our health solutions practice.

Gross profit decreased $0.1 million, or 0.4%, to $38.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $38.4 million for the same prior year period. Gross profit margin increased 0.2 percentage points to 36.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from 36.2% for the same prior year period. The increase in gross profit margin was driven by improved utilization in our North America disputes and investigations practices and a reduction in performance-based compensation expense, partially offset by under-utilization in our trial services practice and investments in certain new EMEA practices.

SG&A expense increased $0.2 million, or 0.9%, to $20.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $20.2 million for the same prior year period. SG&A expense was 19.4% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013, up from 19.0% for the same prior year period.

Revenues decreased $4.0 million, or 1.9%, to $205.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $209.9 million for the same prior year period. Revenues declined organically $4.6 million, or 2.2%, primarily due to weak demand in our North America investigation and trial services practices, partially offset by higher average bill rates as a result of staff mix in our North America disputes and investigations practices and success fees in our health solutions practice as well as certain large engagements that benefitted our data analytics practice in the prior year period.

Gross profit decreased $2.7 million, or 3.6%, to $71.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $73.7 million for the same prior year period. Gross profit margin decreased 0.6 percentage points to 34.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from 35.1% for the same prior year period. The gross profit margin decline was primarily due to lower utilization in our data analytics and trial services practices as well as increased investment in certain new EMEA practices, partially offset by improved utilization in our North America disputes and investigations practices and a reduction in performance-based compensation expense.

SG&A expense decreased $0.6 million, or 1.3%, to $41.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $41.8 million for the same prior year period. SG&A expense was 20.0% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013, up from 19.9% for the same prior year period. The decrease in SG&A expense was primarily due to lower corporate allocations, bad debt expense and facilities costs, partially offset by higher personnel costs. Bad debt expense was 1.0% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 down from 1.3% for the same prior year period.

Amortization of other intangible assets increased by $0.1 million to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $1.0 million for the same prior year period.

Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased by $0.7 million, or 2.1%, to $33.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $34.2 million for the same prior year period. Excluding the revaluation gains in 2013 and 2012 of $1.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively, Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased $2.3 million to $31.6 million.

SG&A expense was 12.9% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 12.5% for the same prior year period. The increase in SG&A expense was due to higher bad debt expense compared to the prior year period which included several large recoveries. Bad debt expense was 1.7% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 0.5% of revenues for the same prior year period.

Amortization of other intangible assets was $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, unchanged for the same prior year period.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013

Revenues increased $4.0 million, or 8.4%, to $50.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $46.6 million for the same prior year period with a 1.2% decline from the estimated negative impact of foreign currency translation, which was primarily due to the weakening of the British pound relative to the U.S. dollar. Revenues increased due to acquisitions by $1.5 million, or 3.3%, from the same prior year period. Revenues increased organically 6.3% due to higher pass-through revenues in the North America region and higher project revenue in the North America and EMEA regions, partially offset by reduced capital market activity in the Asia Pacific region.

Gross profit increased $1.0 million, or 6.3%, to $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $16.2 million for the same prior year period. Gross profit margin decreased 0.7 percentage points to 34.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from 34.7% for the same prior year period. The decline in gross profit margin was primarily due to the higher proportion of low margin pass-through revenues.

SG&A expense increased $0.6 million, or 5.3%, to $12.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $11.9 million for the same prior year period. SG&A expense was 24.8% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013, down from 25.5% of revenues for the same prior year period. The increase in SG&A expense was primarily related to higher facilities expenses and overhead costs related to a 2013 acquired practice.

Amortization of other intangible assets of $1.1 million was unchanged for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same prior year period.

Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased $0.2 million, or 5.0%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $5.0 million for the same prior year period.

Six Month Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

Revenues increased $4.3 million, or 4.8%, to $96.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $91.7 million for the same prior year period with a 1.0% decline from the estimated negative impact of foreign currency translation, which was primarily due to the weakening of the British pound and South African rand relative to the U.S. dollar. Revenues increased due to acquisitions by $1.8 million or 2.0% from the same prior year period. Revenues increased organically 3.8% due to higher pass-through revenues in the North America region and higher project revenues in the North America and EMEA regions, partially offset by reduced capital market activity in the Asia Pacific region.

Gross profit increased $0.5 million, or 1.6%, to $32.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $31.9 million for the same prior year period. Gross profit margin decreased 1.0 percentage points to 33.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from 34.8% for the same prior year period.

SG&A expense was 25.9% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013, unchanged from the same prior year period. The increase in SG&A expense was primarily due to higher legal expenses, increased facilities costs, increased corporate allocations, and overhead costs related to a 2013 acquired practice, partially offset by lower personnel costs due to lower headcount.

Amortization of other intangible assets of $2.3 million was unchanged for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same prior year period.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, goodwill, income taxes and contingencies on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:

•

Revenue Recognition

•

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Unbilled Services

•

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

•

Business Combinations

•

Share-Based Compensation

•

Income Taxes

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Part II, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Critical Accounting Policies,” as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

On a quarterly basis, we monitor the key drivers of fair value to detect events or other changes that would warrant an interim impairment test of our goodwill and intangible assets. Factors we consider important which could trigger an interim impairment review include, but are not limited to the following: significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; a significant change in the manner of our use of the acquired asset or strategy for our overall business; a significant negative industry or economic trend; and our market capitalization relative to net book value. Through our assessment, we determined that there were no events or circumstances that more likely than not would reduce the fair value of any of our reporting units below their carrying value. Accordingly, we did not perform an interim impairment test in either of the quarters in the six-months ended June 30, 2013.

During the fourth quarter of 2012, we performed our goodwill impairment test and determined the carrying values of the goodwill associated with the Strategic Communications reporting unit exceeded its implied fair value, resulting in a $110.4 million non-deductible goodwill impairment charge. The Strategic Communications reporting unit has a goodwill balance of $221.5 million at June 30, 2013. If our long term future growth rates and associated cash flows were to decline from current estimates, the Company could potentially experience future impairment charges.

There can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions used in our goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Our next evaluation of goodwill by reporting unit will be performed during the three months ended December 31, 2013. If our assumptions regarding forecasted cash flows are not achieved, we may be required to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. In addition, if the aforementioned factors have the effect of changing one of the critical assumptions or estimates we use to calculate the value of our goodwill or intangible assets, we may be required to record goodwill and/or intangible asset impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with our next annual impairment test or if a triggering event occurs outside of the quarter during which the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows


	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2013			2012
	(dollars in thousands)
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	19,369		$	(57,288	)
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(54,621	)	$	(35,185	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(28,129	)	$	(4,138	)

We have generally financed our day-to-day operations, capital expenditures and acquisition-related contingent payments through cash flows from operations. During the first quarter of our fiscal year, our cash needs generally exceed our cash flows from operations due to the payments of annual incentive compensation and acquisition-related contingent payment. Our operating cash flows generally exceed our cash needs subsequent to the first quarter of each year.

Our operating assets and liabilities consist primarily of billed and unbilled accounts receivable, notes receivable from employees, accounts payable, accrued expenses and accrued compensation expense. The timing of billings and collections of receivables as well as payments for compensation arrangements affect the changes in these balances.

Cash provided by operating activities was $19.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to cash used in operating activities of $57.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The $76.7 million increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a reduction in bonus payments ($25 million of which were accelerated and paid in the fourth quarter of 2012), lower employee loan payments, an increase in cash collections of accounts receivable and lower income tax payments.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $54.6 million compared to $35.2 million for the same prior year period. Payments for acquisitions completed during the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $30.4 million compared to $1.9 million for the same prior year period. Payments of acquisition-related contingent consideration and stock price guarantees were $6.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $16.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for the same prior year period. Capital expenditures were $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $13.7 million for the same prior year period.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $28.1 million as compared to $4.1 million for the same prior year period. Our financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 included the purchase and retirement of 826,800 shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of approximately $28.8 million.

Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2013, our capital resources included $92.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity of $348.6 million under our $350 million revolving line of credit under our senior secured bank credit facility (“bank credit facility”). As of June 30, 2013, we had no outstanding borrowings under our bank credit facility and $1.4 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduced the availability of borrowings under the bank credit facility. We use letters of credit primarily in lieu of security deposits for our leased office facilities.

Future Capital Needs

We anticipate that our future capital needs will principally consist of funds required for:

•

operating and general corporate expenses relating to the operation of our businesses;

•

capital expenditures, primarily for information technology equipment, office furniture and leasehold improvements;

•

debt service requirements, including interest payments on our long-term debt;

•

compensating designated executive management and senior managing directors under our various long-term incentive compensation programs;

•

discretionary funding of our 2012 Repurchase Program;

•

contingent obligations related to our acquisitions;

•

potential acquisitions of businesses that would allow us to diversify or expand our service offerings; and

•

other known future contractual obligations.

We currently anticipate aggregate capital expenditures will range between $42 million and $47 million to support our organization during 2013, including direct support for specific client engagements and funding for leasehold improvements related to a regional office consolidation. Our estimate takes into consideration the needs of our existing businesses but does not include the impact of any purchases that we make as a result of future acquisitions or specific client engagements that are not currently contemplated. Our capital expenditure requirements may change if our staffing levels or technology needs change significantly from what we currently anticipate, if we purchase additional equipment specifically to support a client engagement or if we pursue and complete additional acquisitions.

In certain business combinations consummated prior to January 1, 2009, a portion of our purchase price was in the form of contingent consideration, often referred to as earn-outs. The use of contingent consideration allows us to shift some of the valuation risk, inherent at the time of acquisitions, to the sellers based upon the outcome of future financial targets that the sellers contemplate in the valuations of the companies, assets or businesses they sell. Contingent consideration is payable annually as agreed upon performance targets are met and is generally subject to a maximum amount within a specified time period. Our obligations change from period-to-period primarily as a result of payments made during the current period, changes in the acquired entities’ performance and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, certain acquisition-related restricted stock agreements contain stock price guarantees that may result in cash payments in the future if our share price falls below a specified per share market value on the date the stock restrictions lapse. As of June 30, 2013, we had no accrued contingent consideration liabilities for business combinations consummated prior to January 1, 2009 and no remaining restricted stock agreements with stock price guarantees.

For business combinations consummated on or after January 1, 2009, contingent consideration obligations are recorded as liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet and remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting date with an offset to current period earnings. The fair value of future expected contingent purchase price obligations for these business combinations are $13.3 million at June 30, 2013 with payment dates extending through 2018.

For the last several years, our cash flows from operations have exceeded our cash needs for capital expenditures and debt service requirements. We believe that our cash flows from operations, supplemented by short-term borrowings under our bank credit facility, as necessary, will provide adequate cash to fund our long-term cash needs from normal operations for at least the next twelve months.

Our conclusion that we will be able to fund our cash requirements by using existing capital resources and cash generated from operations does not take into account the impact of any future acquisition transactions or any unexpected significant changes in the number of employees. The anticipated cash needs of our businesses could change significantly if we pursue and complete additional business acquisitions, if our business plans change, if economic conditions change from those currently prevailing or from those now anticipated, or if other unexpected circumstances arise that have a material effect on the cash flow or profitability of our business. Any of these events or circumstances, including any new business opportunities, could involve significant additional funding needs in excess of the identified currently available sources and could require us to raise additional debt or equity funding to meet those needs. Our ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, is subject to a variety of factors that we cannot predict with certainty, including:

•

our future profitability;

•

the quality of our accounts receivable;

•

our relative levels of debt and equity;

•

the volatility and overall condition of the capital markets; and

•

the market prices of our securities.

Any new debt funding, if available, may be on terms less favorable to us than our bank credit facility or the indentures that govern our senior notes. See “—Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on

Form 10-Q and “Risk Factors” included in Part I – Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013.

Future Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant changes in our future contractual obligations since December 31, 2012.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that involve uncertainties and risks. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues, future results and performance, future capital expenditures, expectations, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions and other matters, business trends and other information that is not historical. Forward-looking statements often contain words such as estimates, expects, anticipates, projects, plans, intends, believes, forecasts and variations of such words or similar expressions. All forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, are based upon our historical performance and our current plans, estimates and expectations at the time we make them and various assumptions. There can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved. Our actual financial results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. The inclusion of any forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved. Given these risks, uncertainties and other factors, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in, or implied by, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” included in Part I– Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include the following:

•

changes in demand for our services;

•

our ability to attract and retain qualified professionals and senior management;

•

conflicts resulting in our inability to represent certain clients;

•

our former employees joining or forming competing businesses;

•

our ability to manage our professionals’ utilization and billing rates and maintain or increase the pricing of our services and products;

•

our ability to make acquisitions and integrate the operations of acquisitions as well as the costs of integration;

•

our ability to adapt to and manage the risks associated with operating in non-U.S. markets;

•

our ability to replace key personnel, including senior managers and practice and regional leaders who have highly specialized skills and experience;

•

our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, negotiate favorable terms and take advantage of opportunistic acquisition situations;

•

our ability to protect the confidentiality of internal and client data and proprietary and confidential information;

•

legislation or judicial rulings, including rulings regarding data privacy and the discovery process;

•

periodic fluctuations in revenues, operating income and cash flows;

•

damage to our reputation as a result of claims involving the quality of our services;

•

fee discounting or renegotiation, lower pricing, less advantageous contract terms and unexpected terminations of client engagements;

•

competition;

•

general economic factors, industry trends, restructuring and bankruptcy rates, legal or regulatory requirements, capital market conditions, merger and acquisition activity, major litigation activity and other events outside of our control;

•

our ability to manage growth;

•

risk of non-payment of receivables;

•

the amount and terms of our outstanding indebtedness;

•

changes in accounting principles;

•

risks relating to the obsolescence of, changes to, or the protection of, our proprietary software products and intellectual property rights; and

•

fluctuations in the mix of our services and the geographic locations in which our clients are located or our services are rendered.

There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included herein. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances and do not intend to do so.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks see “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013. There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposure during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our

disclosure controls and procedures (a) were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported and (b) included, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time in the ordinary course of business, we are subject to claims, asserted or unasserted, or named as a party to lawsuits or investigations. Litigation, in general, and intellectual property and securities litigation in particular, can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with any certainty and in the case of more complex legal proceedings such as intellectual property and securities litigation, the results are difficult to predict at all. We are not aware of any asserted or unasserted legal proceedings or claims that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of our operations.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in any risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2013 and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013. We may disclose changes to risk factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations.

Item 2.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Unregistered sales of equity securities.

Effective April 3, 2013 (U.S. Time), FTI Consulting, Inc. issued an aggregate of 80,892 shares of common stock in payment of $2,887,500 (Australian Dollars), representing a portion of the purchase price for the closing on April 4, 2013 (Australia Time) of the acquisition of substantially all of the assets used in the business of Taylor Woodings Partnership from the individual partners thereof, Taylor Woodings Corporate Services PTY LTD as trustee for the Taylor Woodings Corporate Services Trust, and Taylor Woodings Nominees TPY LTD as trustee for the Taylor Woodings Services Trust. Based on the formula in the Purchase Agreement dated as of April 4, 2013, the $2,887,500 (Australian Dollars) was converted to $3,011,604.70 U.S. Dollars by applying an exchange rate of approximately $1.04298 (Australian Dollars) for $1.00 (U.S. Dollar) (the average exchange rates for the five consecutive trading days ended March 27, 2013). The number of shares issued was determined by dividing (a) $3,011,604.70 (U.S. Dollars) by (b) $37.23 per share (the average closing price per share of common stock of FTI Consulting, Inc. as reported on the New York Stock Exchange for the five consecutive trading days ended March 27, 2013). The 80,892 shares of common stock were offered, sold and issued without registration in a private placement in reliance on the exemption from registration under Regulation S promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act, in offshore transactions. FTI Consulting, Inc. did not engage in general solicitation, advertising and directed selling efforts in connection with the offering of these shares of common stock.

Repurchases of our common stock. The following table provides information with respect to purchases we made of our common stock during the second quarter ended June 30, 2013 (in thousands, except per share amounts).
