ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
On August 2, 2012, FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI Consulting”) held a conference call relating to the press release issued on August 1, 2012 announcing financial results for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2012. The full text of the transcript of the conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
The transcript includes information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA and adjusted earnings per diluted share (“Adjusted EPS”). FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income before income tax provision, other income (expense), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and special charges, “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and special charges, and “Adjusted EPS” as earnings per diluted share, excluding the net impact of any special charges and any loss on early extinguishment of debt that were incurred in that period. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Although Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are not measures of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), FTI Consulting believes that they can be useful operating performance measures for evaluating FTI Consulting’s results of operations as compared from period-to-period and as compared to its competitors. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in FTI Consulting’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Adjusted EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by investors, financial analysts and rating agencies to value and compare the financial performance of companies in FTI Consulting’s industry. FTI Consulting uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA to evaluate and compare the operating performance of its segments. Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables that accompanied FTI Consulting’s press release, which was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 1, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2012.
The information included herein, including Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into any filing pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any incorporation by reference language in any such filing, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
