Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based on the framework in the 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.

KPMG LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our financial statements, has issued an audit report on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting, which is included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

FTI Consulting, Inc.:

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FTI Consulting, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 20, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Changes in estimates of potential fee reductions

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, for certain arrangements, the Company records revenues based on the amount it estimates it will be entitled to in exchange for its services and only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not likely to occur when the uncertainty associated with the estimate is subsequently resolved. The Company records changes to revenue when there are changes in estimates of potential fee reductions imposed by bankruptcy courts or other regulatory agencies or negotiated with specific clients. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $3,698,652 thousand, which includes the previously mentioned changes.

We identified the evaluation of changes in estimates of potential fee reductions as a critical audit matter. There was a high degree of subjectivity and audit effort in evaluating the likely outcome of potential fee reductions imposed by bankruptcy courts or other regulatory agencies or negotiated by specific clients, which may vary depending on the nature of the engagement, client economics, historical experience and other appropriate factors.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s revenue process, including controls related to the monthly analysis of estimated potential fee reductions by arrangement, and review of the related changes to revenue. For a sample of changes in estimates of potential fee reductions, we inspected relevant evidence, including: (1) contractual documents, (2) regulatory correspondence if applicable, and (3) historical trends and analysis performed by the Company that supported the change, and also inquired of relevant Company personnel to assess the rationale for making the change. For a sample of arrangements, we assessed the existence and accuracy of the billed receivables by confirming amounts recorded directly with the Company’s clients. We compared actual collections and write-offs to previous billed and unbilled receivables to assess the Company’s ability to accurately record changes in estimates of potential fee reductions.

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited FTI Consulting, Inc. and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control– Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 20, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

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. Individually, each of our segments and practices is staffed with experts recognized for the depth of their knowledge and a track record of making an impact. Collectively, FTI Consulting offers a comprehensive suite of services designed to assist clients across the business cycle, from proactive risk management to rapid response to unexpected events and dynamic environments. We operate through five reportable segments: Corporate Finance & Restructuring (“Corporate Finance”), Forensic and Litigation Consulting (“FLC”), Economic Consulting, Technology and Strategic Communications.

Accounting Principles

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FTI Consulting and all of our subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Reclassifications of certain prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation.

Foreign Currency

Results of operations for our non-United States subsidiaries are translated from the designated functional currency to the reporting currency of the United States dollar (“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.”

Transaction gains and losses arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local functional currency are included in “Interest income and other” on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Such transaction gains and losses may be realized or unrealized depending upon whether the transaction settled during the period or remains outstanding at the balance sheet date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those assumptions, actual results could differ from those estimates. Our most significant estimates relate to revenues and the assessment of the recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets. Other estimates include, but are not limited to, the realization of deferred tax assets and the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration. Management bases its estimates on historical trends, projections, current experience and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable.

Concentrations of Risk

We do not have a single customer that represents 10% or more of our consolidated revenues. We derive the majority of our revenues from providing professional services to clients in the United States (“U.S.”). For the year ended December 31, 2024, we derived approximately 36% of our consolidated revenues from the work of professionals who are assigned to locations outside the U.S. We believe that the geographic and industry diversity of our customer base throughout the U.S. and internationally minimizes the risk of incurring material losses due to concentrations of credit risk.

Revenue Recognition

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 or until consideration is received.

We generate the majority of our revenues by providing consulting services to our clients. Most of our consulting service contracts are based on one of the following types of contract arrangements:

•Time and expense arrangements require the client to pay us based on the number of hours worked at contractually agreed-upon rates. We recognize revenues for these contract arrangements based on hours incurred and contracted rates utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because we have a right to consideration for services completed to date. When a time and expense arrangement has a not-to-exceed or “cap” amount and we expect to perform work in excess of the cap, we recognize revenues up to the cap amount specified by the client.

•Fixed-fee arrangements require the client to pay a fixed-fee in exchange for a predetermined set of professional services. We recognize revenues earned to date by applying the proportional performance method. Generally, these arrangements have one performance obligation because the promises to transfer goods or services within most of our agreements are not considered to be separately identifiable.

•Performance-based or contingent arrangements represent forms of variable consideration. In these arrangements, our fees are based on the attainment of contractually defined objectives with our client, such as completing a business transaction or assisting the client in achieving a specific business objective. We recognize revenues earned to date in an amount that is probable not to reverse using the expected value or most likely amount to determine the expected variable consideration and then apply the proportional performance method when the criteria for over time revenue recognition are met.

Certain fees in our time and materials arrangements may be subject to approval by a third-party, such as a bankruptcy court and other regulatory agency. In such cases, we record revenues based on the amount we estimate we will be entitled to in exchange for our services and only to the extent a significant reversal of revenue is not likely to occur when the uncertainty associated with the estimate is subsequently resolved. Potential fee reductions imposed by bankruptcy courts and other regulatory agencies or negotiated with specific clients are estimated on a specific identification basis. Our estimates may vary depending on the nature of the engagement, client economics, historical experience and other appropriate factors. When there are changes in our estimates of potential fee reductions, we record such changes to revenues with a corresponding offset to our billed and unbilled accounts receivable.

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.

Reimbursable expenses, including those relating to travel, out-of-pocket expenses, outside consultants and other outside service costs, are generally included in revenues, and an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses is included in costs of services in the period in which the expense is incurred.

Timing of revenue recognition often differs from the timing of billing to our customers. Generally, we transfer goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or payment is due. If we have an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment for goods or services already provided, we record billed and unbilled receivables on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our contract terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 days when no contingencies exist. Payment terms and conditions vary depending on the jurisdiction, market and type of service, and whether regulatory or other third-party approvals are required. At times, we may execute contracts in a form provided by customers that might include different payment terms and contracts may be negotiated at the client’s request.

Direct Cost of Revenues

Direct cost of revenues consists primarily of billable employee compensation and related payroll benefits, the cost of contractors assigned to revenue-generating activities and direct expenses billable to clients. Direct cost of revenues also includes expense for cloud-based computing and depreciation expense on licensed software used to host and process client information. Direct cost of revenues does not include an allocation of corporate overhead and non-billable segment costs.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period or performance period of the award. The amount of share-based compensation expense recognized at any date must at least equal the portion of grant date value of the award that is vested at that date.

The fair value of restricted share awards and restricted stock units is measured based on the closing price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The fair value of performance stock units that contain market-based vesting conditions is measured using a Monte Carlo pricing model. The compensation cost of performance stock units with market-based vesting conditions is based on the grant date fair value and is not subsequently reversed if it is later determined that the market condition is unlikely to be met or is expected to be lower than originally anticipated. For performance stock units that contain performance-based vesting conditions, the compensation cost is adjusted each reporting period based on the probability of the awards vesting.

For all of our share-based awards, we recognize forfeitures in compensation cost when they occur.

Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration

The fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration is estimated at the acquisition date utilizing either a Monte Carlo pricing model or the present value of our probability-weighted estimate of future cash flows. Subsequent to the acquisition date, on a quarterly basis, the contingent consideration liability is remeasured at current fair value with any changes recorded in earnings. Accretion expense is recorded to contingent consideration liabilities for changes in fair value due to the passage of time. Remeasurement gains or losses and accretion expense are included in “Selling, general and administrative” (“SG&A”) expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs consist of marketing, advertising through print and other media, professional event sponsorship and public relations. These costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $27.0 million, $23.0 million and $19.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in SG&A expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Income Taxes

Our income tax provision consists principally of U.S. federal, state and international income taxes. We generate income in a significant number of states located throughout the U.S. and in foreign countries in which we conduct business. Our effective income tax rate may fluctuate due to a change in the mix of earnings between higher and lower state or country tax jurisdictions and the impact of non-deductible expenses. Additionally, we record deferred tax assets and liabilities using the asset and liability method of accounting, which requires us to measure these assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recognized if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations.

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) was enacted into law. The IRA, among other things, includes provisions that permit clean energy tax credits that are transferable to an unrelated third party in exchange for cash payment. When the control of the investment tax credits transfers, the acquired credits are recognized as deferred tax assets and are measured under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes. The difference between the purchase price and the tax basis of the purchased credits is recognized as deferred credits. The deferred credits are recognized in income tax expense in proportion to the reversal of the associated deferred tax asset. The amounts paid for the tax credits are presented in the “Cash paid for income taxes and tax credits, net of refunds” line in the supplemental cash flow disclosures.

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of money market funds, commercial paper and certificates of deposit with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase.

Short-term Investment

The short-term investment represented an investment in a certificate of deposit with an original maturity of less than one year and was included in the “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” financial statement line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023. We classified the short-term investment as held-to-maturity in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 320, Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. Short-term investments classified as held-to-maturity are financial instruments the Company has the intent and ability to hold until maturity and are reported net of amortized cost. Interest earned on the short-term investment was recorded in “Interest income and other” on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The short-term investment matured during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Allowance for Expected Credit Losses

We estimate the current-period provision for expected credit losses on a specific identification basis. Our judgments regarding a specific client’s credit risk considers factors such as the counterparty’s creditworthiness, knowledge of the specific client’s circumstances and historical collection experience for similar clients. Other factors include, but are not limited to, current economic conditions and forward-looking estimates. Our actual experience may vary from our estimates. If the financial condition of our clients were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability or unwillingness to pay our fees, we may need to record additional provisions for expected credit losses in future periods. The risk of credit losses may be mitigated to the extent that we received a retainer from some of our clients prior to performing services.

We maintain an allowance for expected credit losses, which represents the estimated aggregate amount of credit risk arising from the inability or unwillingness of specific clients to pay our fees or disputes that may affect our ability to fully collect our billed accounts receivable. We record our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses concurrently with the initial recognition of the underlying receivable. Accounts receivable, net of the allowance for expected credit losses, represents the amount we expect to collect. At each reporting date, we adjust the allowance for expected credit losses to reflect our current estimate. Adjustments to the allowance for expected credit losses are recorded to SG&A expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Our billed accounts receivables are written off when the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Property and Equipment

We record property and equipment, including improvements that extend useful life, at cost, while maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. We calculate depreciation using the straight-line method based on an estimated useful life ranging from less thanone year to 15 years for furniture, equipment and software. We amortize leasehold improvements over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. We capitalize costs incurred during the application development stage of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Capitalized software developed for internal use is classified within computer equipment and software and is amortized over the estimated useful life of the software, which ranges from less thanone year to 10 years. Purchased software licenses to be sold to customers are capitalized and amortized over the license term.

Notes Receivable from Employees

Notes receivable from employees principally include unsecured general recourse forgivable loans which are provided to attract and retain certain of our senior employees and other professionals. Generally, all of the principal amount and accrued interest income of the forgivable loans we make to employees and other professionals will be forgiven according to the stated terms of the loan agreement, provided that the professional is providing services to the Company on the forgiveness date and upon other specified events, such as death or disability. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we recorded accrued interest income as a reduction to operating expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Professionals who terminate their employment or services with us prior to the end of the forgiveness period are required to repay the outstanding, unforgiven loan balance and any accrued but unforgiven interest. The unforgiven interest is recorded to interest income and other on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income at the time of termination.

If the termination was by the Company without “cause” or by the employee with “good reason,” or, subject to certain conditions, if the employee terminates his or her employment due to retirement or non-renewal of his or her employment agreement, the loan may be forgiven or continue to be forgivable, in whole or in part. We amortize forgivable loans straight-line over the requisite service period, which ranges from a period ofone year to 10 years. The amount of expense recognized at any date must at least equal the portion of the principal forgiven on the forgiveness date.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the purchase price of acquired businesses in excess of the fair market value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets may include customer relationships, trademarks and acquired software.

We test our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of the first day of the fourth quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. 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. Important factors we consider that could trigger an interim impairment review include, but are not limited to, the following:

•significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;

•a significant change in the manner of our use of the acquired asset or the strategy for our overall business;

•a significant market decline related to negative industry or economic trends; and/or

•our market capitalization relative to net carrying value.

We assess our goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a business one level below that operating segment if discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker.

Our annual goodwill impairment test may be conducted using a qualitative assessment or a quantitative assessment. Under GAAP, we have an option to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative impairment test. We determine whether to perform a qualitative assessment first or to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed with the quantitative goodwill impairment test for each of our reporting units based on the excess of fair value over carrying value from the most recent quantitative tests and other events or changes in circumstances that could impact the fair value of the reporting units.

In the qualitative assessment, we consider various factors, events or circumstances, including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance and other relevant reporting unit specific events. If, based on the qualitative assessment, we determine that it is not “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we do not prepare a quantitative impairment test. If we determine otherwise, we will prepare a quantitative assessment for potential goodwill impairment.

In the quantitative assessment, we compare the estimated fair value of the reporting unit with the carrying amount of that reporting unit. We estimate fair value using a combination of an income approach (based on discounted cash flows) and market approaches, using appropriate weighting factors. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired. However, if the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful life and reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We amortize our acquired finite-lived intangible assets on a straight-line basis over periods ranging fromtwo to 15 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We review long-lived assets such as property and equipment, operating lease assets and finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. These events or changes in circumstances may include a significant deterioration of operating results, changes in business plans or changes in anticipated future cash flows. If an impairment indicator is present, we evaluate recoverability of assets to be held and used by a comparison of the carrying value of the assets with future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. We group assets at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows generated by other asset groups. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset group, we estimate the fair value of the asset group to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized.

Leases

We determine if a contract is a leasing arrangement at inception. Operating lease assets represent our right to control the use of an identified asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We use the incremental borrowing rate on the commencement date in determining the present value of our lease payments. We recognize operating lease expense for our operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We lease office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases, which may include renewal or termination options that are reasonably certain of exercise. Most leases includeone or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term up toseven years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments that are adjusted periodically for inflation. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis. Lease and non-lease components are accounted for together as a single lease component for operating leases associated with our office space.

Billings in Excess of Services Provided

Billings in excess of services provided represent amounts billed to clients, such as retainers, in advance of work being performed. Clients may make advance payments, which are held on deposit until completion of work or are applied at predetermined amounts or times. Excess payments are either applied to final billings or refunded to clients upon completion of work. Payments in excess of related accounts receivable and unbilled receivables are recorded as billings in excess of services provided within the liabilities section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

2. New Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. On January 1, 2024, we adopted ASU 2023-07 using the retrospective method for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. See Note 20, “Segment Reporting” for disclosures required under ASU 2023-07.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued 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 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 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.

There were no 2.0% convertible senior notes due 2023 (“2023 Convertible Notes”) outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2024. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we used the if-converted method for calculating the potential dilutive effect of the conversion feature of the principal amount of the 2023 Convertible Notes on earnings per common share. The conversion feature had a dilutive impact on earnings per common share for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, as the average market price per share of our common stock for the periods exceeded the conversion price of $101.38 per share.

(1)On August 17, 2023, we issued a total of 1,460,740 shares of our common stock to holders in connection with the conversion of their 2023 Convertible Notes at maturity.

4. Revenues

We generate the majority of our revenues by providing consulting services to our clients. See Note 1, “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information on our accounting policies for revenues.

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. We estimate that approximately 77% of our revenues recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 were generated from time and expense contract arrangements. 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 previous 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 $20.0 million, $11.7 million and $24.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Unfulfilled performance obligations primarily consist of fees not yet recognized on certain fixed-fee arrangements and performance-based and contingent arrangements. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the aggregate amount of the remaining contract transaction price allocated to unfulfilled performance obligations was $25.5 million and $34.6 million, respectively. We expect to recognize the majority of the related revenues over the next 36 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 December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

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 December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

5. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses

The following table summarizes the components of “Accounts receivable, net” as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

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

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. See Note 1, “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information on our accounting policies for the allowance for expected credit losses.

6. Special Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded special charges of $8.2 million. The charges related to targeted headcount reductions in areas of each segment and region where we realigned our workforce with current business demand for our consulting services. A portion of the special charges was paid during the year ended December 31, 2024 and the remaining amounts will be paid in cash in the next 12 months.

The following table details the special charges by segment.

There wereno special charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2023.

7. Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans

Under the FTI Consulting, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, effective as of June 7, 2017, and as amended as of June 3, 2020, there were 644,842 shares of common stock available for grant as of December 31, 2024.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

The table below reflects the total share-based compensation expense recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022:

Restricted Share Awards

The following table summarizes our restricted share awards activity during the year ended December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, there was $58.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted share awards. That cost is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted average period of 3.4 years. The total fair value of restricted share awards that vested during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $28.1 million, $29.0 million and $42.1 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

The following table summarizes our restricted stock units activity during the year ended December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, there was $37.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock units. That cost is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted average period of 4.4 years. The total fair value of restricted stock units released for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $8.7 million, $6.6 million and $7.2 million, respectively.

Performance Stock Units

Performance stock units represent common stock potentially issuable in the future, subject to achievement of either market or performance conditions. Our current outstanding performance stock units that are subject to market conditions vest based on the adjusted total shareholder return of the Company as compared with the adjusted total shareholder return of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index over the applicable performance period. Our current outstanding performance stock units that are subject to performance conditions vest based on Adjusted EBITDA metrics over the applicable performance period. The vesting and payout range for all of our performance stock units is typically between 0% and up to 150% of the target number of shares granted at the end of atwo- orthree-year performance period.

The following table summarizes our performance stock units activity during the year ended December 31, 2024.

(1)Performance stock units granted are presented at the maximum potential payout percentage of 150% of target shares granted.

(2)Performance stock units are forfeited when the market or performance conditions for maximum payout are not achieved, including performance stock units that do not achieve any payout, or the employee is terminated prior to vesting.

As of December 31, 2024, there was $7.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested performance stock units. That cost is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted average period of 0.5 years. The total fair value of performance stock units released during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $15.2 million, $11.7 million and $14.2 million, respectively.

The weighted average grant date fair value per share of restricted share awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units awarded during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $211.79, $187.85 and $157.65, respectively. The fair value of our restricted share awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units that are subject to performance conditions is determined based on the closing market price per share of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value of our performance stock units subject to market conditions is calculated using a Monte Carlo pricing model as of the grant date.

Stock Options

We didnot grant any stock options during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. Historically, we used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of our stock option grants.

The following table summarizes our stock option activity during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Cash received from option exercises for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $10.9 million, $1.3 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The tax benefit realized from stock options exercised was immaterial for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

The intrinsic value of stock options exercised is the amount by which the market value of our common stock on the exercise date exceeds the exercise price. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $52.0 million, $6.0 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2024, there wasno unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets were as follows:

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful life. We recorded amortization expense of $4.2 million, $6.2 million and $9.6 million during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. No impairment charges for intangible assets were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

We estimate our future amortization expense for our intangible assets with finite lives to be as follows:

(1)Actual amortization expense to be reported in future periods could differ from these estimates as a result of new intangible asset acquisitions, impairments, changes in useful lives, or other relevant factors or changes.

12. Notes Receivable from Employees

The table below summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of our notes receivable from employees:

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were 499 and 413 notes outstanding, respectively. Total amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $51.6 million, $27.8 million and $30.8 million, respectively.

13. Financial Instruments

The fair values of all financial instruments are estimated to be equal to their carrying values as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. We estimate the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration using either a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model or a Monte Carlo pricing model. These fair value estimates represent Level 3 measurements as they are based on significant inputs not observed in the market and reflect our own assumptions. Significant increases (or decreases) in these unobservable inputs in isolation would result in significantly lower (or higher) fair values. We reassess the fair value of our acquisition-related contingent consideration at each reporting period based on additional information as it becomes available. The fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration was $5.4 million and $12.8 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There were no other assets or liabilities subject to Level 3 fair value measurements as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

14. Debt

There wasno debt outstanding as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

In November 2022, we entered into the second amended and restated credit agreement governing our senior secured bank revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”) to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity to November 21, 2027, (ii) increase the revolving line of credit limit from $550.0 million to $900.0 million, and (iii) increase the incremental facility from $150.0 million to a maximum of $300.0 million, subject to certain conditions, and incurred an additional $4.0 million of debt issuance costs. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries and is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of FTI Consulting and such domestic subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, in the case of: (i) 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.

There were $2.5 million and $3.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These amounts are included in “Other assets” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The table below includes cash paid for our operating lease liabilities, other non-cash information, our weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate:

16. 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 results of our operations.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company was contingently liable under bank guarantees issued by our banks in favor of third parties that totaled $10.9 million and $7.8 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 $42.7 million and $36.2 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company had $31.8 million and $28.4 million available under the facilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These bank guarantees are issued separate from our Credit Facility and, as a result, do not affect available borrowings under our Credit Facility.

17. Income Taxes

The table below summarizes significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities:

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded certain deferred tax assets related to foreign net operating loss and foreign capital loss carryforwards, which can be carried forward for periods ranging from 5 years to indefinite. Based on forward-looking financial information, the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the attributes will be utilized. Therefore, valuation allowances of $9.6 million and $6.8 million are recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The table below summarizes the components of income before income tax provision from continuing operations:

The table below summarizes the components of income tax provision from continuing operations:

Our income tax provision from continuing operations resulted in effective tax rates that varied from the federal statutory income tax rate as summarized below:

The income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $70.7 million and $83.5 million, respectively. The decrease in the income tax provision was primarily due to a more favorable tax benefit related to share-based compensation, as a larger number of non-qualified stock options were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year.

We file numerous consolidated and separate income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in many city, state and foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2021. We are also no longer subject to state and local or foreign tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2016.

Our liability for uncertain tax positions was $0.7 million and $1.6 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, our accrual for the payment of tax-related interest and penalties was not significant.

18. Stockholders’ Equity

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 $1.3 billion on December 1, 2022. No time limit has been established for the completion of the Repurchase Program, and the Repurchase Program may be suspended, discontinued or replaced by the Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. As of December 31, 2024, we had $450.4 million available under the Repurchase Program to repurchase additional shares.

The following table details our stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program:

As we repurchase our common shares, we reduce stated capital on our 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 35.9 million shares and 35.5 million shares as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Common stock outstanding includes unvested restricted stock awards, which are considered issued and outstanding under the terms of the restricted stock award agreements.

19. Employee Benefit Plans

We maintain a qualified defined contribution 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all of our U.S. employees. Under the plan, participants are entitled to make pre-tax, Roth post-tax and/or traditional post-tax contributions not to exceed annual maximums established by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). We match a certain percentage of a participant’s combined pre-tax and Roth post-tax contributions pursuant to the terms of the plan, which is limited to a percentage of the participant’s eligible compensation as established by the IRS. We made contributions related to the plan of $39.5 million, $36.6 million and $32.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

We also maintain several defined contribution pension plans for our employees in the UK and other foreign countries. We contributed to these plans $17.7 million, $15.3 million and $12.6 million during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

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.

The tables below summarize revenues, significant expenses and gross profit by reportable segment:

(1)The significant expense category and amounts align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM.
