Company Narrows 2022 Guidance Ranges for Revenues and EPS

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today released financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Third quarter 2022 revenues of $775.9 million increased $73.6 million, or 10.5%, compared to revenues of $702.2 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from foreign currency translation ("FX"), revenues increased $103.7 million, or 14.8%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $3.1 million during the quarter. The increase in revenues was due to higher realization, which includes the recognition of revenues previously deferred, and higher demand across all business segments. Net income of $77.3 million compared to $69.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in net income was primarily due to higher revenues, a lower effective tax rate, an increase in FX remeasurement gains and lower interest expense, which was partially offset by an increase in compensation, including the impact of a 12.4% increase in total headcount, and higher selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses compared to the prior year quarter. The lower effective tax rate was primarily related to a combined $8.3 million benefit from the use of foreign tax credits and a deferred tax benefit arising from an intracompany intellectual property license agreement. Adjusted EBITDA of $99.0 million, or 12.8% of revenues, compared to $100.3 million, or 14.3% of revenues, in the prior year quarter.

Third quarter 2022 earnings per diluted share ("EPS") of $2.15 compared to $1.96 in the prior year quarter. Third quarter 2021 EPS included $2.4 million of non-cash interest expense related to the Company's 2.0% convertible senior notes due 2023 ("2023 Convertible Notes"), which decreased EPS by $0.06. Third quarter 2022 Adjusted EPS of $2.15 compared to Adjusted EPS of $2.02 in the prior year quarter. Third quarter 2021 Adjusted EPS excluded the non-cash interest expense related to the 2023 Convertible Notes. The aforementioned $8.3 million tax benefit increased third quarter 2022 EPS and Adjusted EPS by $0.23.

Steven H. Gunby, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTI Consulting, commented, "Our record results this quarter reflect the combination of solid underlying business performance in aggregate, together with some one-time benefits. As always, our focus remains on driving the powerful multi-year trajectory our firm has been on by continuing to invest behind our strong positions and the ambitions of our people."

Cash Position and Capital Allocation

Net cash provided by operating activities of $128.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared to $196.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was largely due to an increase in compensation, primarily related to headcount growth, as well as a decrease in cash collections compared to the same period in the prior year.

Cash and cash equivalents of $327.0 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $342.5 million at September 30, 2021 and $255.7 million at June 30, 2022. FX translation unfavorably impacted cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2022 compared to September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2022. Total debt, net of cash, of ($10.8) million at September 30, 2022 compared to ($1.3) million at September 30, 2021 and $60.5 million at June 30, 2022. The sequential decrease in total debt, net of cash, was due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents.

During the quarter, the Company repurchased 127,791 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $159.87 for a total cost of $20.4 million. As of September 30, 2022, approximately $143.5 million remained available for common stock repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase authorization.

Corporate Finance & Restructuring
Revenues in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment increased $15.0 million, or 6.0%, to $265.4 million in the quarter compared to $250.3 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $24.1 million, or 9.6%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $3.1 million in the quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand for restructuring and business transformation services, which was partially offset by lower demand for transactions services and a decline in success fees compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $51.5 million, or 19.4% of segment revenues, compared to $55.6 million, or 22.2% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA declined compared to the prior year quarter, as the increase in revenues was more than offset by higher compensation, which includes the impact of an 11.5% increase in billable headcount, and higher SG&A expenses.

Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $18.4 million, or 12.7%, compared to the prior year quarter.

Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $32.9 million, or 17.0% of segment revenues, compared to $29.9 million, or 17.3% of segment revenues, in the prior year quarter.

Revenues in the Technology segment increased $20.3 million, or 31.3%, to $84.9 million in the quarter compared to $64.7 million in the prior year quarter.

Revenues in the Strategic Communications segment increased $3.0 million, or 4.3%, to $72.4 million in the quarter compared to $69.4 million in the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In the accompanying analysis of financial information, we sometimes use information derived from consolidated and segment financial information that may not be presented in our financial statements or prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Certain of these financial measures are considered not in conformity with GAAP ("non-GAAP financial measures")under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules. Specifically, we have referred to the following non-GAAP financial measures:

Total Segment Operating Income
Adjusted EBITDA
Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share
Free Cash Flow

We have included the definitions of Segment Operating Income and Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which are GAAP financial measures, below in order to more fully define the components of certain non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. We define Segment Operating Income as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income. We define Total Segment Operating Income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Segment Operating Income for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Segment Operating Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Segment EBITDA. We define Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges and goodwill impairment charges. We use Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a basis to internally evaluate the financial performance of our segments because we believe it reflects current core operating performance and provides an indicator of the segment’s ability to generate cash.

We define Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Adjusted Segment EBITDA for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as consolidated net income before income tax provision, other non-operating income (expense), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges, gain or loss on sale of a business and losses on early extinguishment of debt. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of our operating results, including underlying trends. In addition, EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by many of our competitors. It is used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and others to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry. Therefore, we also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, considered along with corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating results with the operating results of other companies. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues.

We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share ("Adjusted EPS"), which are non-GAAP financial measures, as net income and EPS, respectively, excluding the impact of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges, losses on early extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense on convertible notes and the gain or loss on sale of a business. We use Adjusted Net Income for the purpose of calculating Adjusted EPS. Management uses Adjusted EPS to assess total Company operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with an additional understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends.

We define Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash payments for purchases of property and equipment. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with an additional understanding of the Company’s ability to generate cash for ongoing business operations and other capital deployment.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable with other similarly titled measures of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
