WASHINGTON, Feb. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today released financial results for the full year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022.

For the full year 2022, revenues of $3.029 billion increased $252.7 million, or 9.1%, compared to revenues of $2.776 billion in the prior year. Excluding the estimated negative impact from foreign currency translation ("FX"), revenues increased $339.8 million, or 12.2%, compared to the prior year. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring, Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Technology and Strategic Communications business segments. Net income of $235.5 million compared to $235.0 million in the prior year. The increase in net income was primarily due to higher revenues, which was largely offset by higher compensation, including the impact of a 12.3% increase in billable headcount, and a 19.2% increase in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses compared to the prior year. In full year 2022, there was an $8.3 million special charge recorded in the fourth quarter related to severance and other employee-related costs. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the special charge, of $357.6 million, or 11.8% of revenues, compared to $354.0 million, or 12.8% of revenues, in the prior year period.

Full year 2022 earnings per diluted share ("EPS") of $6.58 compared to $6.65 in the prior year. Full year 2022 EPS included the $8.3 million special charge, which reduced EPS by $0.19. Full year 2021 EPS included $9.6 million of non-cash interest expense related to the Company's 2.0% convertible senior notes due 2023 ("2023 Convertible Notes"), which reduced EPS by $0.20, and $3.1 million in fair value remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, which increased EPS by $0.09. Full year 2022 Adjusted EPS of $6.77 compared to Adjusted EPS of $6.76 in the prior year.

Steven H. Gunby, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTI Consulting, commented, "We are pleased that in 2022, we once again reported record revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS. That strength and durability, to me, are consequences of our teams’ commitment to invest behind our people and positions, independent of market conditions, a commitment which has allowed us to increasingly serve our clients as they face their most significant opportunities and challenges."

Cash Position and Capital Allocation

Net cash provided by operating activities of $188.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $355.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The year-over-year decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was largely due to higher compensation, operating expenses and income taxes paid, which was partially offset by an increase in cash collected.

Cash and cash equivalents of $491.7 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $494.5 million at December 31, 2021 and $327.0 million at September 30, 2022. Total debt, net of cash, of ($175.5) million at December 31, 2022 compared to ($178.2) million at December 31, 2021 and ($10.8) million at September 30, 2022. The sequential decrease in total debt, net of cash, was primarily due to an increase in cash provided by operating activities, which was partially offset by share repurchases.

On December 1, 2022, FTI Consulting’s Board of Directors authorized the additional amount of $400.0 million to repurchase its outstanding shares of common stock under its stock repurchase program. During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 425,016 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $153.09 for a total cost of $65.1 million. In full year 2022, the Company repurchased 574,418 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $154.23 for a total cost of $88.6 million. As of December 31, 2022, approximately $478.5 million remained available for common stock repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase program.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Results

Fourth quarter 2022 revenues of $774.4 million increased $98.2 million, or 14.5%, compared to revenues of $676.2 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the estimated negative impact from FX, revenues increased $124.3 million, or 18.4%, compared to the prior year quarter. Acquisition-related revenues contributed $3.5 million during the quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand across the Corporate Finance & Restructuring, Forensic and Litigation Consulting and Technology segments. Net income of $47.5 million compared to $38.2 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in net income was primarily due to higher revenues, which was partially offset by an increase in compensation, including the impact of a 12.3% increase in billable headcount, higher SG&A expenses, the aforementioned $8.3 million special charge, an increase in FX remeasurement losses and a higher effective tax rate compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the special charge, of $92.0 million, or 11.9% of revenues, compared to $62.0 million, or 9.2% of revenues, 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.
