Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollar and share amounts in tables 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 generally accepted accounting principles 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. 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. The fair values of all financial instruments are estimated to be equal to their carrying values as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. 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 thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC.
Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
2. New Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands annual disclosures in an entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and requires annual disclosures regarding cash taxes paid both in the United States (“U.S.”) (federal, state and local) and foreign jurisdictions. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional, disaggregated disclosure around certain income statement expense line items. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share adjusts basic earnings per common share for the effects of potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares include the dilutive effects of shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of outstanding awards under our equity compensation plans, including stock options and share-based awards (restricted share awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units), each using the treasury stock method.

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,

Numerator — basic and diluted |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding — basic | 33,261 |  |  | 35,221 |  |  | 34,152 |  |  | 35,099 |

Antidilutive stock options and share-based awards | 260 |  |  | 40 |  |  | 241 |  |  | 32 |

4. Revenues
We generate the majority of our revenues by providing consulting services to our clients. Revenues are recognized when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring services promised in a contract to a customer and in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those services. Performance obligations in our contracts represent distinct or separate services that we provide to our customers. If, at the outset of an arrangement, we determine that a contract with enforceable rights and obligations does not exist, revenues are deferred until all criteria for an enforceable contract are met.
Revenues recognized during the current period may include revenues from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. This primarily occurs when the estimated transaction price has changed based on our current probability assessment over whether the agreed-upon outcome for our performance-based and contingent arrangements will be achieved. The aggregate amount of revenues recognized related to a change in the transaction price in the current period, which related to performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in a prior period, was $13.5 million and $15.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $8.9 million and $11.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
Unfulfilled performance obligations primarily consist of fees not yet recognized on certain fixed-fee, performance-based and contingent arrangements. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate amount of the remaining contract transaction price allocated to unfulfilled performance obligations was $24.5 million and $25.5 million, respectively. We expect to recognize the majority of the related revenues over the next 24 months. We elected to utilize the optional exemption to exclude from this disclosure fixed-fee and performance-based and contingent arrangements with an original expected duration of one year or less and to exclude our time and expense arrangements for which revenues are recognized using the right-to-invoice practical expedient.
Contract assets are defined as assets for which we have recorded revenues but are not yet entitled to receive our fees because certain events, such as completion of the measurement period or client approval, must occur. The contract asset balance was immaterial as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Contract liabilities are defined as liabilities incurred when we have received consideration but have not yet performed the agreed-upon services. This may occur when clients pay fees before work begins. The contract liability balance was immaterial as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

5. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The following table summarizes the components of “Accounts receivable, net” as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

| June 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
Accounts receivable: |  |  |
Billed receivables | $ | 810,094 |  |  | $ | 742,504 |
Unbilled receivables | 406,818 |  |  | 368,216 |
Allowance for expected credit losses | (89,993) |  |  | (90,546) |
Accounts receivable, net | $ | 1,126,919 |  |  | $ | 1,020,174 |

The following table summarizes the total provision for expected credit losses and write-offs:

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2024
Provision for expected credit losses | $ | 4,695 |  |  | $ | 8,503 |  |  | $ | 11,909 |  |  | $ | 19,923 |
Write-offs | $ | 3,636 |  |  | $ | 9,511 |  |  | $ | 14,047 |  |  | $ | 19,881 |

Our provision for expected credit losses includes recoveries, direct write-offs and charges to other accounts. Billed accounts receivables are written off when the potential for recovery is considered remote.
6. Special Charges
There were no special charges recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded special charges of $25.3 million related to targeted headcount reductions in each segment and region where we realigned our workforce with current business demand for our consulting services. The special charges concluded as of March 31, 2025. A portion of the special charges was paid during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the remaining amounts will be paid in cash in the next nine months. These amounts are included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table details the special charges by segment:

|  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2025

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We recorded amortization expense of $1.1 million and $2.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
8. Debt
Long-term debt outstanding under our senior unsecured bank revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”) was $470.0 million and there was no current portion as of June 30, 2025. The Company classified the borrowings under the Credit Facility as long-term debt in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as we have the intent and unilateral ability to refinance any borrowings on a continuous basis through the maturity of the Credit Facility on November 21, 2027. There was no debt outstanding as of December 31, 2024.
Our second amended and restated credit agreement governing our Credit Facility has a revolving line of credit limit of $900.0 million and a maximum incremental facility of $300.0 million, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Facility was originally guaranteed by substantially all of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries and was originally secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of FTI Consulting and such domestic subsidiaries. In October 2024, the Company’s credit rating was upgraded to investment grade by S&P Global. The upgraded rating triggered a Ratings Collateral Release Date under, and as defined in, the Credit Facility. Upon the occurrence of the Ratings Collateral Release Date, the security interests and liens previously granted to the lenders were automatically terminated and released, and the Credit Facility is now unsecured, with only unsecured guarantees being provided by substantially all of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries.
11

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, in the case of: (i) U.S. dollars (“USD”), at our option, Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, (ii) euros, Euro Interbank Offered Rate, (iii) British pounds, Sterling Overnight Index Average Reference Rate, (iv) Australian dollars, Bank Bill Swap Reference Bid Rate, (v) Canadian dollars, Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, (vi) Swiss francs, Swiss Average Rate Overnight, and (vii) Japanese yen, Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin that will fluctuate between 1.25% per annum and 2.00% per annum based upon the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) at such time or, in the case of USD borrowings, an alternative base rate plus an applicable margin that will fluctuate between 0.25% per annum and 1.00% per annum based upon the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio at such time. The alternative base rate is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (1) the federal funds rate plus the sum of 50 basis points, (2) the rate of interest in effect for such day as the prime rate announced by Bank of America, and (3) the one-month Term SOFR plus 100 basis points.
Under the Credit Facility, we are required to pay a commitment fee rate that fluctuates between 0.20% and 0.35% per annum and a letter of credit fee rate that fluctuates between 1.25% and 2.00% per annum, in each case, based upon the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio.
9. Leases
We lease office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. The table below summarizes the carrying amount of our operating lease assets and liabilities:

10. Commitments and 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 eventuality of such actions. 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 our results of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded the impact of proceeds received from legal settlements. These amounts are included as a gain in “Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company was contingently liable under bank guarantees issued in favor of third parties that totaled $16.2 million and $10.9 million, respectively. These bank guarantees primarily support bid and performance obligations and operating leases for office space. The amounts are guaranteed under guarantee facilities totaling $47.4 million and $42.7 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company had $31.2 million and $31.8 million available under the guarantee facilities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These bank guarantees are issued separately from our Credit Facility and, as a result, do not affect available borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility.
11. Share-Based Compensation
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we granted equity awards of 77,084 restricted shares, 94,588 restricted stock units and 105,632 performance stock units under the FTI Consulting, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, our employee equity compensation plan. Our performance stock units are presented at the maximum potential payout percentage of 150% of target shares granted. These awards are recorded as equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, 13,312 shares of restricted stock and 3,903 restricted stock units were forfeited prior to the completion of the applicable vesting requirements. Additionally, 31,447 performance stock units were forfeited during the six months ended June 30, 2025, including award targets that were not achieved.
Total share-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, is detailed in the following table:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
Income Statement Classification |  | 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2024
Direct cost of revenues |  | $ | 6,725 |  |  | $ | 5,081 |  |  | $ | 11,442 |  |  | $ | 10,799 |
Selling, general and administrative expenses |  | 3,658 |  |  | 5,406 |  |  | 8,247 |  |  | 9,906 |
Total share-based compensation expense |  | $ | 10,383 |  |  | $ | 10,487 |  |  | $ | 19,689 |  |  | $ | 20,705 |

12. Stockholders’ Equity
2016 Stock Repurchase Program
On June 2, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), which was most recently increased by $400.0 million to an aggregate authorization of $1.7 billion on April 21, 2025. No time limit has been established for the completion of the Repurchase Program, and the Repurchase Program may be suspended, discontinued
13

or replaced by the Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. As of June 30, 2025, we had $309.3 million available under the Repurchase Program to repurchase additional shares of our common stock.
The following table details our stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2024
Shares of common stock repurchased and retired |  | 2,192 |  |  | — |  |  | 3,319 |  |  | — |
Average price paid per share (1) |  | $ | 161.88 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 162.99 |  |  | $ | — |
Total cost (1) |  | $ | 354,893 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 541,020 |  |  | $ | — |

(1) Excludes excise tax of $3.3 million and $4.8 million incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
As we repurchase our common shares, we reduce stated capital on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the $0.01 of par value of the shares repurchased, with the excess purchase price over par value recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. If additional paid-in capital is reduced to zero, we record the remainder of the excess purchase price over par value as a reduction of retained earnings.
Common Stock Outstanding
Common stock outstanding was approximately 32.7 million shares and 35.9 million shares as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Common stock outstanding includes unvested restricted stock awards, which are considered issued and outstanding under the terms of the restricted stock award agreements. The decrease in common stock outstanding was primarily due to stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
13. Segment Reporting
We manage our business in five reportable segments: Corporate Finance, FLC, Economic Consulting, Technology and Strategic Communications.
Our Corporate Finance segment focuses on the strategic, operational, financial, transactional and capital needs of our clients around the world.

We deliver a wide range of services centered around three core offerings: Transactions, Transformation & Strategy and Turnaround & Restructuring.
Our FLC segment provides law firms, companies, boards of directors, government entities, private equity firms and other interested parties with a multidisciplinary and independent range of services across investigations and disputes, supported by our data & analytics technology-enabled solutions, with a focus on highly regulated industries. Our services are centered around five core offerings: Construction, Projects & Assets and Environmental Solutions, Data & Analytics, Disputes, Healthcare Risk Management & Advisory and Risk and Investigations, which includes our cybersecurity and financial services-related offerings.

disruptive events, including transactions, investigations, disputes, crises, regulation and legislation. We deliver a wide range of services centered around three core offerings: Corporate Reputation, Financial Communications and Public Affairs.
We have considered information that is regularly provided to our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for our segment reporting disclosure. Our CODM assesses the performance and allocates resources to each segment based on revenues and multiple measures of segment profit, including gross profit, which is the measure closest to GAAP reporting principles. Gross profit is defined as revenues less direct costs of revenues. Our CODM is not provided asset information by reportable segment.

FTI Consulting, Inc., including its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “FTI Consulting”), is a global business advisory firm dedicated to helping organizations manage change, mitigate risk and resolve disputes: financial, legal, operational, political & regulatory, reputational and transactional.

We deliver a wide range of services centered around three core offerings: Antitrust & Competition Economics, Financial Economics and International Arbitration.
Our Technology segment provides companies, law firms, private equity firms and government entities with a comprehensive global portfolio of digital insights and risk management consulting and data services. Our professionals help organizations better address risk as the growing volume and variety of enterprise and emerging data intersects with legal, regulatory and compliance needs. We deliver a wide range of expert and analytics-powered solutions driven by investigations, litigation, antitrust and competition, mergers & acquisitions (“M&A”), restructuring and compliance and risk through three core offerings: Corporate Legal Department Consulting, E-discovery and Analytics Services and Expertise, and Information Governance, Privacy & Security Services.

We deliver a wide range of services centered around three core offerings: Corporate Reputation, Financial Communications and Public Affairs.
We derive substantially all of our revenues from providing professional services to both U.S. and international clients. Most of our services are rendered under time and expense contract arrangements, which require the client to pay us based on the number of hours worked at contractually agreed-upon rates. Under this arrangement, we typically bill our clients for reimbursable expenses, including those relating to travel, out-of-pocket expenses, outside consultants and other outside service costs. Certain contracts are rendered under fixed-fee arrangements, which require the client to pay a fixed fee in exchange for a
17

predetermined set of professional services. Fixed-fee arrangements may require certain clients to pay us a recurring retainer. Our contract arrangements may also contain success fees or performance-based arrangements in which our fees are based on the attainment of contractually defined objectives with our client. This type of success fee may supplement a time and expense or fixed-fee arrangement. Success fees and other contractual terms may cause variations in our revenues and operating results due to the timing of when achieving the performance-based criteria becomes probable. Seasonal factors, such as the timing of our employees’ and clients’ vacations and holidays, may impact the timing of our revenue recognition across our segments.
In our Technology segment, certain clients are billed based on the amount of data storage used or the volume of information processed. Unit-based revenues are defined as revenues billed on a per item, per page or another unit-based method and include revenues from data processing and hosting. Unit-based revenues include revenues associated with licensed software products made available to customers via a web browser (“on-demand”). On-demand revenues are charged on a unit or monthly basis and include, but are not limited to, processing and review related functions.
Our financial results are primarily driven by:
•the number, size and type of engagements we secure;
•the number of billable professionals;
•the utilization rates of the billable professionals we employ;
•the rate per hour or fixed charges we charge our clients for services;
•the timing of revenue recognition;
•the length of the billing and collection cycles; and
•the geographic locations of our clients or locations in which services are rendered.
We define acquisition growth as revenues of acquired companies in the first 12 months following the effective date of an acquisition. When significant, we identify the impact of acquisition-related revenue growth.
When significant, we identify the estimated impact of foreign currency (“FX”) driven by our businesses with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar (“USD”). The estimated impact of FX on the period-to-period performance results is calculated as the difference between the prior period results, multiplied by the average FX exchange rates to USD in the current period and the prior period results, multiplied by the average FX exchange rates to USD in the prior period.
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 U.S. (“GAAP”). Certain of these financial measures are considered not in conformity with GAAP (“non-GAAP financial measures”) under the SEC rules. Specifically, we have referred to the following non-GAAP financial measures:
•Total Segment Operating Income
•Adjusted Segment EBITDA
•Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA
•Adjusted EBITDA
•Adjusted EBITDA Margin
•Adjusted Net Income
•Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share
•Free Cash Flow
We have included the definition of Segment Operating Income, which is a GAAP financial measure, below in order to more fully define the components of certain non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying analysis of financial information.
18

We define Segment Operating Income as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income. We define Total Segment Operating Income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Segment Operating Income for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Segment Operating Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted Segment EBITDA as Segment 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 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 define Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues. 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 useful supplemental information.
We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share (“Adjusted EPS”), which are non-GAAP financial measures, as net income and earnings per diluted share (“EPS”), respectively, excluding the impact of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges, the gain or loss on sale of a business and losses on early extinguishment of debt. 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 useful supplemental information on 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 useful supplemental information on the Company’s ability to generate cash for ongoing business operations and 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 elsewhere in this report.

Second Quarter 2025 Executive Highlights
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $5.5 million, or 0.6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, which included a 1.3% estimated positive impact from FX. Excluding the estimated impact from FX, revenues decreased $17.6 million, or 1.8%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to lower revenues in our Economic Consulting and Technology segments, which was partially offset by higher revenues in our Corporate Finance, FLC and Strategic Communications segments.
Net income
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $12.2 million, or 14.6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net income was primarily due to lower revenues, an increase in direct costs, which includes higher forgivable loan amortization expenses, an FX remeasurement loss compared to a gain in the same quarter in the prior year and a higher effective tax rate, which was partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $4.3 million, or 3.7%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 11.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 12.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower revenues and an increase in direct costs, including higher forgivable loan amortization expenses, which was partially offset by a decrease in SG&A expenses.
EPS and Adjusted EPS
EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $0.21 to $2.13 compared to $2.34 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in EPS was primarily due to lower net income as described above, which was partially offset by a decrease in diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
Adjusted EPS was equal to EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Allocation
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $79.5 million, or 58.8%, to $55.7 million compared to $135.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to an increase in forgivable loan issuances, compensation and income tax payments, which was partially offset by higher cash collections. Days sales outstanding (“DSO”) of 100 days at June 30, 2025 compared to 105 days at June 30, 2024.
20

Free Cas h Flow was an inflow of $38.3 million and $125.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in Free Cash Flow was primarily due to lower net cash provided by operating activities, as described above, and higher net cash used for purchases of property and equipment.
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we made $354.0 million in payments for common stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program.
Recent Legislation
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The OBBBA is expected to have immaterial impacts on the future effective tax rate.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenues and operating income
See “Segment Results” for an expanded discussion of revenues, gross profit and SG&A expenses.
Unallocated corporate expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses decreased $3.1 million, or 7.2%, to $39.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower compensation expenses.
Interest income and other
Interest income and other, which includes FX gains and losses, decreased $4.0 million to a $2.1 million loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to a $1.9 million gain for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.1 million FX loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to a $0.5 million FX gain for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
FX 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 cash, as well as third-party and intercompany receivables and payables.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased $1.9 million, or 58.4%, to $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher borrowings on our senior unsecured bank revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”), which was partially offset by lower interest rates on our borrowings.
23

Income tax provision
Our income tax provision increased $1.5 million, or 8.0%, to $20.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Our effective tax rate of 22.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 18.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in the income tax provision was due to an increase in the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was impacted by a less favorable tax benefit related to share-based compensation, as a smaller number of non-qualified stock options were exercised compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenues and operating income
See “Segment Results” for an expanded discussion of revenues, gross profit and SG&A expenses.
Unallocated corporate expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses decreased $22.9 million, or 27.8%, to $59.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a legal settlement gain recorded during the first quarter of 2025 and lower compensation expenses.
Interest income and other
Interest income and other, which includes FX gains and losses, decreased $2.7 million, or 77.8%, to $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a $4.4 million increase in FX losses, which was partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in interest income.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased $1.2 million, or 23.6%, to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher borrowings on our Credit Facility, which was partially offset by lower interest rates on our borrowings.
Income tax provision
Our income tax provision increased $0.7 million, or 1.9%, to $39.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $38.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Our effective tax rate of 22.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 18.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in the income tax provision was due to an increase in the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was impacted by a less favorable tax benefit related to share-based compensation, as a smaller number of non-qualified stock options were exercised compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.

SEGMENT RESULTS
Adjusted Segment EBITDA
We evaluate the performance of each of our operating segments based on multiple measures of segment profit, including Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.

(1)The number of billable professionals for the Technology segment excludes as-needed professionals, who we employ based on demand for the segment’s services. We employed an average of 357 and 899 as-needed employees during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(2)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, U.S. standard work weeks and local country holidays. Available working hours include vacation and professional training days, but exclude local country holidays. Utilization rates are presented for our segments that primarily bill clients on an hourly basis. We have not presented utilization rates for our Technology and Strategic Communications segments as most of the revenues of these segments are not generated on an hourly basis.
(3)For engagements where revenues are based on number of hours worked by our billable professionals and fixed-fee arrangements, average billable rate per hour is calculated by dividing revenues (excluding revenues from success fees, pass-through revenues and outside consultants) for a period by the number of hours worked on client assignments during the same period. We have not presented average billable rates per hour for our Technology and Strategic Communications segments as most of the revenues of these segments are not based on billable hours.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenues decreased $39.2 million, or 17.0%, to $191.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which included a 2.0% estimated positive impact from FX. Excluding the estimated impact from FX, revenues decreased $43.8 million or 19.0%. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to lower demand for our M&A-related antitrust and non-M&A-related antitrust services, which was partially offset by higher realized bill rates for our M&A-related antitrust services and higher demand for our financial economics services.

Gross profit decreased $30.0 million, or 41.8%, to $41.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Gross profit margin decreased 9.3 percentage points for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to a 6 percentage point decline in utilization and higher forgivable loan amortization expenses, which was partially offset by higher realized bill rates and lower compensation expenses, primarily driven by a 7.9% decline in billable headcount.
SG&A expenses increased $0.1 million, or 0.4%, to $29.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which included a 2.5% estimated negative impact from FX. SG&A expenses were 15.1% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 12.5% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenues decreased $63.9 million, or 14.7%, to $371.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower demand for our M&A-related antitrust and non-M&A-related antitrust services, which was partially offset by higher realized bill rates.
Gross profit decreased $33.7 million, or 28.8%, to $83.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Gross profit margin decreased 4.5 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to a 6 percentage point decrease in utilization and higher forgivable loan amortization expenses, which was partially offset by higher realized bill rates and lower variable compensation and salary expenses.
SG&A expenses decreased $3.8 million, or 6.2%, to $57.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. SG&A expenses of 15.4% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 14.0% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily driven by lower bad debt expenses, which was partially offset by higher outside services expenses.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
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 GAAP. 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 included in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenues, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies, on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on current facts and circumstances, historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable, which form the basis for making judgments about the 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 estimates that reflect our more significant judgments, and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, include the following:
•Revenue Recognition
•Goodwill and Intangible Assets
There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates from the information provided in “Critical Accounting Estimates” in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in Part II, Item 7, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, or from the information provided in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
SIGNIFICANT NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 2, “New Accounting Standards” in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Our annual cash flows from operations generally exceed our cash needs for capital expenditures and debt service requirements. We typically finance our day-to-day operations, capital expenditures, acquisitions and share repurchases through cash flows from operations. We believe that our cash flows from operations, supplemented by borrowings under our Credit Facility, as necessary, will provide adequate cash to fund our cash needs for at least the next 12 months.
Our operating assets and liabilities consist primarily of billed and unbilled accounts receivable, notes receivable from employees, accounts payable, accrued expenses and accrued compensation expenses. The timing of billings and collections of receivables, as well as compensation and vendor payments, affects the changes in these balances.
Results of operations for our non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated from the designated functional currency to our reporting currency of USD. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for each month, while assets and liabilities are translated at balance sheet date exchange rates. Resulting net translation adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.”
Uncertainties and Trends Affecting Liquidity
Our conclusion that we will be able to fund our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months by using existing capital resources and cash generated from operations does not take into account events beyond our control that could result in a material adverse impact on our business, the impact of any future acquisitions or unexpected significant changes in the number of employees or other unanticipated uses of cash. The anticipated cash needs of our business could change significantly if we pursue and complete additional business acquisitions, if our business plans change, if events such as economic, political and workforce disruptions arise, including any impact of future public health crises, or economic, political or business conditions change from those currently prevailing or from those now anticipated, or if unexpected circumstances or other events beyond
34

our control arise that may have a material adverse effect on the cash flow or profitability of our business, including material negative changes in the health and welfare of our employees or those of our clients, and the operating performance or financial results of our business. Any of these events or circumstances, including any new business opportunities, could involve significant additional funding and could require us to borrow under our Credit Facility or raise additional debt or equity funding to meet those needs. Our ability to borrow or 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 Credit Facility. See “Forward-Looking Statements” in Part I, Item 2, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the information contained under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

DSO (1) | 100 |  |  | 105 |

(1)DSO is a performance measure used to assess how quickly revenues are collected by the Company. We calculate DSO at the end of each reporting period by dividing net accounts receivable reduced by billings in excess of services provided, by revenues for the quarter, adjusted for changes in FX rates. We multiply the result by the number of days in the quarter.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
Net cash used in operating activities increased $269.9 million, or 193.4%, to $409.5 million compared to $139.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in forgivable loan issuances, compensation and income tax payments and a decrease in cash collections. DSO was 100 and 105 days as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
N et ca sh used in investing activities of $35.2 million d uring the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the prior year maturity of a short-term investment of $25.2 million, which created an inflow in the comparative prior year period. In addition, there was a $20.5 million increase in capital expenditures primarily driven by higher spend on leasehold improvements and cloud computing costs as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Net cash used in financing activities of $84.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $58.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to $536.7 million in payments for common stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program, which was partially offset by an increase in net borrowings of $410.0 million under our Credit Facility compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents had a favorable impact of $21.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to an unfavorable impact of $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
35

Cash paid for income taxes and tax credits, net of tax refunds included $28.9 million and $23.5 million of payments for the purchase of tax credits during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Principal Sources of Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2025, our capital resources included $152.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity of $430.0 million under the revolving line of credit under our Credit Facility. The $900.0 million revolving line of credit under our Credit Facility includes a $125.0 million sublimit for borrowings in currencies other than USD, including the euro, British pound, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, Swiss franc and Japanese yen.
The availability of borrowings, as well as issuances and extensions of letters of credit under our Credit Facility, are subject to specified conditions. Subject to certain conditions, at any time prior to maturity, we will be able to invite existing and new lenders to increase the size of the facility up to a maximum of $1.2 billion. See Note 8, “Debt” in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion of variable interest rates and guarantees under the Credit Facility.
The second amended and restated credit agreement entered into on November 21, 2022 (the “Credit Agreement”) governing the Credit Facility and our other indebtedness outstanding from time to time contains covenants that, among other things, may limit our ability to: incur additional indebtedness; create liens; pay dividends on our capital stock, make distributions or repurchases of our capital stock or make specified other restricted payments; consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets; guarantee obligations of other entities or our foreign subsidiaries; enter into hedging agreements; enter into transactions with affiliates or related persons; or engage in any business other than consulting-related businesses. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes a financial covenant that requires us not to exceed a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio (the ratio of funded debt (less unrestricted cash up to $300.0 million) to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. See Note 8, “Debt” in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion of the Credit Agreement.
Principal Uses of Capital Resources
Future Capital Requirements
We anticipate that our future capital requirements will principally consist of funds required for:
•operating and general corporate expenses;
•capital expenditures, primarily for information technology equipment and systems, office furniture and leasehold improvements;
•debt service requirements, including interest payments;
•compensation to designated executive management and senior managing directors under our various long-term incentive compensation programs, including forgivable loans;
•discretionary funding of the Repurchase Program;
•contingent obligations related to our acquisitions;
•potential acquisitions of businesses; and
•other known future contractual obligations.
Capital Expenditures
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we spent $35.2 million in capital expenditures to support our organization. For the remainder of 2025, we currently expect additional capital expenditures to support our organization in an aggregate amount of between $29 million and $36 million. Our estimate takes into consideration the needs of our existing businesses but does not include the impact of any purchases that we may be required to make as a result of future acquisitions or specific client engagements that are not completed or 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 are required to purchase additional equipment specifically to support new client engagements, or if we pursue and complete additional acquisitions.
36

Share Repurchase Program
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we made $536.7 million in payments for common stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program. We had $309.3 million remaining available under the Repurchase Program to repurchase additional shares of our common stock as of June 30, 2025.
Future Contractual Obligations
Our future contractual obligations as of June 30, 2025 include long-term obligations of $470.0 million related to outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. For more information on our Credit Facility, refer to Note 8, “Debt” in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Under our operating leases as described in Note 9, “Leases” in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have current obligations of $36.0 million and non-current obligations of $216.7 million.
These amounts reflect future unconditional payments and are based on the terms of the relevant agreements, appropriate classification of items under GAAP currently in effect and certain assumptions such as interest rates. Future events could cause actual payments to differ from these amounts.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company was contingently liable under bank guarantees issued in favor of third parties that totaled $16.2 million and $10.9 million, respectively. These bank guarantees primarily support bid and performance obligations and operating leases for office space. The amounts are guaranteed under guarantee facilities totaling $47.4 million and $42.7 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company had $31.2 million and $31.8 million available under the guarantee facilities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These bank guarantees are issued separately from our Credit Facility and, as a result, do not affect available borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility.
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 (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that involve uncertainties and risks. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, initiatives, projections, prospects, policies, processes and practices, objectives, goals, commitments, strategies, future events, future revenues, future results and performance, future capital allocations and expenditures, expectations, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions, share repurchases and other matters, business trends, new, or changes to, laws and regulations, including U.S. and foreign tax laws, environmental, social and governance (“ESG”)-related issues, climate change-related matters, scientific or technological developments, including relating to new and emerging technologies, such as AI and machine learning and other information that is not historical. Forward-looking statements often contain words such as “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “commits,” “aspires,” “forecasts,” “future,” “goal,” “seeks” and variations of such words or similar expressions. All forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, management’s financial guidance and examination of operating trends, are based upon our historical performance and our current plans, estimates, intentions and expectations at the time we make them, and various assumptions. Our actual financial results, performance or achievements and outcomes could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. Any references to standards of measurement and performance made regarding our climate change-, ESG- or other sustainability-related plans, goals, commitments, intentions, aspirations, forecasts or projections, or expectations are developing and based on assumptions. There can be no assurance that management’s plans, performance, expectations, intentions, aspirations, beliefs, goals, estimates, forecasts and projections, including any that are ESG- or other sustainability-related, will result or be achieved, and 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, forecasts, intentions, aspirations, beliefs 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 include those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as well as in other information that we file with the SEC from time to time.

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 our results of operations.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in any risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC. 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.
