FTI Consulting, Inc. and Subsidiaries
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 accounting principles generally accepted 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. 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, 2016 filed with the SEC.
2. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share adjust 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 restricted shares, each using the treasury stock method.

3. New Accounting Standards
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04 : Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . This standard requires entities to measure goodwill impairment using the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the reporting unit, instead of performing a hypothetical purchase price allocation. This guidance is effective beginning January 1, 2020, although early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance would only impact the measurement of a future goodwill impairment to the extent applicable.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory , which removes the prohibition against immediate recognition of current and deferred income tax effects on intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. We elected to early adopt this standard as of January 1, 2017, and recorded a $3.2 million cumulative effect adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings in the first quarter of 2017 for the net impact of increasing deferred tax assets by $2.6 million and decreasing a deferred tax charge in other assets by $5.8 million related to a prior period intra-entity transfer of intellectual property.
7
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments , which clarifies how cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statement of cash flows. This standard is effective January 1, 2018, although early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This standard makes several modifications to Topic 718, including the accounting for forfeitures, employer tax withholding on share-based compensation, income tax consequences, and clarifies the statement of cash flows presentation for certain components of share-based awards, all of which are intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based compensation. The ASU requires that the difference between the actual tax expense or benefit realized upon option exercise or restricted share or restricted stock unit release and the tax expense or benefit recorded based on the fair value of the stock award at the time of grant (the “excess tax benefits or detriment”) is to be reflected as an increase or reduction to the current period provision for income taxes rather than as a component of changes to additional paid-in capital. We adopted this standard as of January 1, 2017, and recorded $0.3 million benefit related to the excess benefits realized from stock compensation transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The actual benefit or detriment realized in future periods cannot be precisely estimated and will vary based on the timing and relative value realized for future share-based transactions. Additionally, we elected to recognize forfeiture expense as forfeitures occur, rather than estimating forfeitures based on historical data. This election had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , that replaces existing lease guidance. Under this ASU, we will be required to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective beginning January 1, 2019. The new standard is required to be applied with a modified retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented. We have not yet determined the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . Under this ASU and subsequently issued amendments, revenues are recognized at the time when goods or services are transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU. We believe that the adoption of this standard will impact engagements that contain variable fee arrangements including those in which we earn a completion fee when and if certain predefined outcomes occur, and certain engagements with fixed-fees that have multiple performance obligations. We will adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method effective January 1, 2018.
4. Special Charges
There were no special charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded special charges totaling $5.1 million related to employee terminations in our Technology segment. The charges consisted of salary continuance and other contractual employee-related costs.
Activity related to the liability for the special charges for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is as follows:

5. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Unbilled Services
We record adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts and unbilled services as a reduction in revenues when there are changes in estimates of fee reductions that may be imposed by bankruptcy courts and other regulatory institutions for both billed and unbilled receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts and unbilled services is also adjusted after the related work has been billed to the client and we discover that collectability is not reasonably assured. These adjustments are recorded to “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and totaled $3.6 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
6. Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs related to software development totaled $4.2 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Research and development costs are included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
7. Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We consider the recorded value of certain financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, based on the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities. The fair value of our borrowings on our $107.0 million s enior secured bank revolving credit facility (“ Senior Bank Credit Facility”) approximates the carrying amount. The fair value of our long-term debt at March 31, 2017, which includes the Senior Bank Credit Facility, was $416.8 million compared with a carrying value of $407.0 million. At December 31, 2016, the fair value of our long-term debt was $382.8 million compared with a carrying value of $370.0 million. We determine the fair value of our long-term debt primarily based on quoted market prices for our 6% Senior Notes Due 2022 (“2022 Notes”) as of March 31, 2017. The fair value of our long-term debt is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, because it is traded in less active markets.

Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We recorded amortization expense of $2.5 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Based solely on the amortizable intangible assets recorded as of March 31, 2017, we estimate amortization expense to be $7.1 million during the remainder of 2017, $7.9 million in 2018, $7.3 million in 2019, $7.1 million in 2020, $6.6 million in 2021, $4.9 million in 2022 and an aggregate of $3.4 million in years after 2022. Actual amortization expense to be reported in future periods could differ from these estimates as a result of new intangible asset acquisitions, changes in useful lives, or other relevant factors or changes.

There were $107.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Company’s Senior Bank Credit Facility as of March 31, 2017. The Company has classified these borrowings as long-term debt in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as the Company has the intent and ability, as supported by availability under the credit agreement entered into as of June 26, 2015, which expires on June 26, 2020, to refinance these borrowings for more than one year from the applicable balance sheet date. Additionally, $0.7 million of the borrowing limit was utilized for letters of credit (and, therefore, unavailable) as of March 31, 2017.
For further information on our 2022 Notes and Senior Bank Credit Facility, see Note 12, “Long-Term Debt” in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2016.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
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 do not believe any settlement or judgment relating to any pending legal action would materially affect our financial position or results of operations.
11. Share-Based Compensation
Share-based Awards and Share-based Compensation Expense
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we granted 144,989 restricted stock awards, stock options exercisable for up to 130,650 shares, 38,487 restricted stock units, and 100,052 performance stock units. These awards are recorded as equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, stock options exercisable for up to 3,147 shares and 5,841 restricted stock awards were forfeited prior to the completion of the vesting requirements.
Total share-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 is detailed in the following table:

12. Stockholders’ Equity
On June 2, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $100.0 million (the “Stock Repurchase Program”). No time limit has been established for the completion of the program, and the program may be suspended, discontinued or replaced by the Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we repurchased and retired 879,585 shares of our common stock for an average price per share of $41.95, at a total cost of $36.9 million, which was paid in full. As of March 31, 2017, we have $44.5 million available under this program to repurchase additional shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we repurchased and retired 85,100 shares of our common stock for an average per share price of $34.12, at a total cost of $2.9 million under the previous stock repurchase program that expired on May 5, 2016.

We manage our business in five reportable segments: Corporate Finance & Restructuring, Forensic and Litigation Consulting, Economic Consulting, Technology and Strategic Communications.
Our Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment focuses on the strategic, operational, financial and capital needs of our clients around the world and delivers a wide range of distressed and non-distressed practice offerings. Our distressed practice offerings include corporate restructuring (and bankruptcy) and interim management services. Our non-distressed practice offerings include financings, mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”), M&A integration, valuations and tax advice, as well as financial, operational and performance improvement services.
Our Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government clients and other interested parties with multidisciplinary, independent dispute advisory, investigations, data analytics, forensic accounting, business intelligence and risk mitigation services, as well as interim management and performance improvement services for our health solutions practice clients.
Our Economic Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government entities and other interested parties with analysis of complex economic issues for use in legal, regulatory and international arbitration proceedings, strategic decision making and public policy debates in the U.S. and around the world.
Our Technology segment offers a comprehensive portfolio of information governance and e-discovery software, services and consulting support to companies, law firms, courts and government agencies worldwide. Our services allow our clients to control the risk and expense of e-discovery events, as well as manage their data in the context of compliance and risk.
Our Strategic Communications segment designs and executes communications strategies for management teams and boards of directors to help them seize opportunities, manage financial, regulatory and reputational challenges, navigate market disruptions, articulate their brand, stake a competitive position, and preserve and grow their operations.
We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on 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 define Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Adjusted Segment EBITDA for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Adjusted Segment EBITDA 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.

14. Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information
Substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of borrowings under our Senior Bank Credit Facility and 2022 Notes. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. All of our guarantors are wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries.
The following financial information presents condensed consolidating balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income and statements of cash flows for FTI Consulting, all the guarantor subsidiaries, all the non-guarantor subsidiaries and the eliminations necessary to arrive at the consolidated information for FTI Consulting and its subsidiaries. For purposes of this presentation, we have accounted for our investments in our subsidiaries using the equity method of accounting. The principal eliminating entries eliminate investment in subsidiary and intercompany balances and transactions.

The following is a discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 and significant factors that could affect our prospective financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In addition to historical information, the following discussion includes forward-looking statements based on current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, these expectations or any of the forward-looking statements could prove to be incorrect, and actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in the forward-looking statements.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
FTI Consulting is a global business advisory firm dedicated to helping organizations manage change, mitigate risk and resolve disputes: financial, legal, operational, political and regulatory, reputational and transactional. Individually, each of our 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 report financial results for the following five reportable segments:
Our Corporate Finance & Restructuring (“Corporate Finance”) segment focuses on the strategic, operational, financial and capital needs of our clients around the world and delivers a wide range of distressed and non-distressed practice offerings. Our distressed practice offerings include corporate restructuring (and bankruptcy) and interim management services. Our non-distressed practice offerings include financings, M&As, M&A integration, valuations and tax advice, as well as financial, operational and performance improvement services.
Our Forensic and Litigation Consulting (“FLC”) segment provides law firms, companies, government clients and other interested parties with multidisciplinary, independent dispute advisory, investigations, data analytics, forensic accounting, business intelligence and risk mitigation services, as well as interim management and performance improvement services for our health solutions practice clients.
Our Economic Consulting segment provides law firms, companies, government entities and other interested parties with analysis of complex economic issues for use in legal, regulatory and international arbitration proceedings, strategic decision making and public policy debates in the U.S. and around the world.
Our Technology segment offers a comprehensive portfolio of information governance and e-discovery software, services and consulting support to companies, law firms, courts and government agencies worldwide. Our services allow our clients to control the risk and expense of e-discovery events, as well as manage their data in the context of compliance and risk.
Our Strategic Communications segment designs and executes communications strategies for management teams and boards of directors to help them seize opportunities, manage financial, regulatory and reputational challenges, navigate market disruptions, articulate their brand, stake a competitive position, and preserve and grow their operations.
We derive substantially all of our revenues from providing professional services to both U.S. and global clients. Most of our services are rendered under time-and-expense arrangements that obligate the client to pay us a fee for the hours that we incur at agreed-upon rates. Under this arrangement, we typically bill our clients for reimbursable expenses, which may include the cost of producing our work product and other direct expenses that we incur on behalf of the client, such as travel costs. We also render services for which certain clients may be required to pay us a fixed fee or recurring retainer. These arrangements are generally cancelable at any time. Some of our engagements contain performance-based arrangements in which we earn a success fee when and if certain predefined outcomes occur. This type of success fee may supplement a time-and-expense or fixed-fee arrangement. Success fee revenues may cause variations in our revenues and operating results due to the timing of achieving the performance-based criteria. In our Technology segment, certain clients are also billed based on the amount of data stored on our electronic systems, the volume of information processed or the number of users licensing our Ringtail ® software products for use or installation within their own environments. We license certain products directly to end users, as well as indirectly through our channel partner relationships. Unit-based revenues are defined as revenues billed on a per-item, per-page or some other unit-based method and include revenues from data processing and hosting, software usage and software licensing. Unit-based revenues include revenues associated with our proprietary software that are made available to customers, either via a web browser (“on-demand”) or installed at our customer or partner locations (“on-premise”). On-demand revenues are charged on a unit or monthly basis and include, but are not limited to, processing and review related functions. On-premise revenues are comprised of upfront license fees, with recurring support and maintenance. Seasonal factors, such as the timing of our employees’ and clients’ vacations and holidays, impact the timing of our revenues.
16
Our financial results are primarily driven by:
|
|
• |
the number, size and type of engagements we secure; |
|
|
• |
the rate per hour or fixed charges we charge our clients for services; |
|
|
• |
the utilization rates of the revenue-generating professionals we employ; |
|
|
• |
the number of revenue-generating professionals; |
|
|
• |
licensing of our software products and other technology services; |
|
|
• |
the types of assignments we are working on at different times; |
|
|
• |
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. Our definition of organic growth is the change in revenues excluding the impact of all such acquisitions.
When significant, we identify the estimated impact of foreign currency translation (“FX”) driven by our businesses with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar (“USD”), on the period-to-period performance results. The estimated impact of FX is calculated as the difference between the prior period results multiplied by the average foreign currency exchange rates to USD in the current period and the prior period results multiplied by the average foreign currency 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 GAAP. Certain of these measures are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under the SEC rules. Specifically, we have referred to the following non-GAAP measures:
|
|
• |
Total Segment Operating Income (Loss) |
|
|
• |
Adjusted EBITDA |
|
|
• |
Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA |
|
|
• |
Adjusted EBITDA Margin |
|
|
• |
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) |
|
|
• |
Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share |
|
|
• |
Free Cash Flow |
We have included the definitions of Segment Operating Income (Loss) and Adjusted Segment EBITDA below in order to more fully define the components of certain non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying analysis of financial information. As described in
We define Segment Operating Income (Loss) as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income (loss). We define Total Segment Operating Income (Loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as the total of Segment Operating Income (Loss) for all segments, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses. We use Segment Operating Income (Loss) for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Segment EBITDA. We define Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income (loss) 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 Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin as Adjusted Segment EBITDA as a percentage of a segment’s revenues.
17
We define Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial meas ure, 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 inco me (expense), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges and losses on early extinguishment of debt. We believe that the non-GAAP financial me asures, which exclude the effects of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges and goodwill impairment charges, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP measures, provide management and investor s 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 ag encies and others to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry. Therefore, we also believe that these measures, considered along with corresponding GAAP measures, provide management and investors with additional information f or comparison of our operating results with the operating results of other companies.
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, respectively, excluding the impact of remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges 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 this non-GAAP financial measure, which excludes the effects of the remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration, special charges, goodwill impairment charges and losses on early extinguishment of debt, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with an additional understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends.
We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by 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. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included elsewhere in this report.

First Quarter 2017 Executive Highlights
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $23.9 million, or 5.1%, which included a $7.8 million, or 1.7%, estimated negative impact of foreign currency translation (“FX”). Excluding the estimated impact of FX, revenues decreased $16.1 million, or 3.4%. The decrease in revenues was primarily driven by lower demand for restructuring services in our Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment in North America and lower demand for the health solutions practice in our Forensics and Litigation Consulting segment. This was partially offset by higher demand for antitrust services in our Economic Consulting segment in North America.
Special charges
There were no special charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Net income
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $16.2 million, or 53.6%. This decrease was due to lower operating results in the current period, partially offset by the lower provision for income taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $30.5 million, or 44.3%. Adjusted EBITDA was 8.6% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with 14.6% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower demand for restructuring services in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment in North America and lower demand and realized pricing in the health solutions practice within our Forensics and Litigation Consulting segment. The decline in Adjusted EBITDA was also impacted to a lesser extent by higher compensation and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
Earnings per diluted share and Adjusted EPS
Earnings per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $0.39 to $0.34 compared with $0.73 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, which included a special charge and a fair value increase to an acquisition-related contingent consideration liability, which reduced earnings per diluted share by $0.10.
Adjusted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $0.49 to $0.34 compared with $0.83 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Adjusted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2016 excluded a special charge and a fair value increase to an acquisition-related contingent consideration liability described above.
Liquidity and capital allocation
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $60.0 million, or 181.2%, to $93.1 million compared with $33.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily due to lower cash collections due to lower revenues and higher annual bonus payments. Days sales outstanding (“DSO”), which is one measure of the collections cycle, was 98 days at both March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016. Free cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was an outflow of $98.9 million compared with an outflow of $39.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2017 included $37.0 million of additional borrowings under the Company’s senior secured bank revolving credit facility (“Senior Bank Credit Facility”). Total debt outstanding, net of deferred debt issue costs, was $402.7 million as of March 31, 2017, down from $502.0 million as of March 31, 2016.
On June 2, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (the “Stock Repurchase Program”) under which FTI Consulting may repurchase up to $100.0 million of its outstanding common stock. No time limit has been established for the completion of the program, and the program may be suspended, discontinued or replaced by the Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. We repurchased and retired 879,585 shares of our common stock for an average price per share of $41.95, at a total cost of $36.9 million. As of March 31, 2017, we have $44.5 million available under this program to repurchase additional shares. Subject to market conditions and future events that may be beyond our control, we expect to use the remaining $44.5 million available under the Stock Repurchase Program during the remainder of 2017.
19
Our total headcount increased 0.5% from 4,718 as of December 31, 2016 to 4,742 as of March 31, 2017. The following table includes the net billable headcount additions for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
Revenues and operating income
See “Segment Results” for an expanded discussion of Revenues and Adjusted Segment EBITDA.
Unallocated corporate expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $0.3 million, or 1.6%, to $19.1 million compared with $18.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Interest income and other
Interest income and other, which includes foreign currency transaction gains and losses, decreased $2.0 million to income of $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with income of $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to net unrealized foreign currency transaction losses, which were $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with a $1.4 million gain for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Transaction 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 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased $0.4 million, or 6.5%, to $5.8 million compared with $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was favorably impacted by lower average debt balances reflecting the net repayments of borrowings under the Senior Bank Credit Facility in 2016.
Income tax provision
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 36.0% compared with 37.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 . The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was unfavorably impacted by the mix of earnings in our international jurisdictions. This was partially offset by a $0.3 million reduction of tax expense related to excess benefits realized from stock compensation transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2017, as required by the new accounting standard for share-based payments. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was unfavorably impacted by 1.5% for discrete tax adjustments.
Remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration
We recorded a $0.2 million and $1.0 million expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to the increase in the liability for future expected contingent consideration payments in our Strategic Communications segment.
22
Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA
We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on Adjusted Segment EBITDA. 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. The following table reconciles Net Income to Total Adjusted Segment EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

The number of revenue-generating 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 378 as-needed employees during the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared with 353 as-needed employees during the three months ended March 31, 2016. |

|

For engagements where revenues are based on number of hours worked by our billable professionals, 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. |

Revenues decreased $21.3 million, or 16.7%, to $105.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily driven by lower demand for restructuring services in North America.
Gross profit decreased $20.5 million, or 39.6%, to $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Gross profit margin decreased 11.2 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to lower utilization as a result of a decline in demand for restructuring services in North America.
24
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increas ed $0.9 million, or 4.2%, to $21.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. SG&A expenses were 20.5% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with 16.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Revenues decreased $7.6 million, or 6.4%, to $111.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily driven by lower demand in the health solutions and global investigations practices, which was partially offset by higher demand in the construction solutions practice.
Gross profit decreased $4.4 million, or 11.3%, to $34.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Gross profit margin decreased 1.7 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to lower demand and lower realized pricing in the health solutions practice. This decline was partially offset by lower compensation in the health solutions practice resulting from headcount reductions in 2016 and higher utilization in the construction solutions practice.
SG&A expenses increased $2.0 million, or 9.8%, to $22.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. SG&A expenses were 19.9% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with 17.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily a result of higher bad debt expense.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
Revenues increased $8.5 million, or 6.5%, to $139.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which included a 2.5% estimated negative impact from FX. Excluding the estimated impact of FX, revenues increased $11.8 million, or 9.0%, primarily due to higher demand for antitrust services in North America.
Gross profit decreased $0.9 million, or 2.4%, to $35.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Gross profit margin decreased 2.4 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to lower utilization related to international arbitration and other litigation services in EMEA.
SG&A expenses increased $0.9 million, or 5.2%, to $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. SG&A expenses were 12.4% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with 12.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to higher bad debt and depreciation expense, partially offset by lower legal fees.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
Revenues decreased $2.2 million, or 4.5%, to $46.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which included a 1.1% estimated negative impact from FX. Excluding the estimated impact of FX, revenues decreased $1.7 million, or 3.4%, due to reduced demand for cross-border investigations and M&A related second request activity, partially offset by increases in litigation and class action related engagements.
Gross profit increased $0.4 million, or 2.1%, to $20.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Gross profit margin increased 2.9 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in gross profit margin was due to lower compensation as a result of headcount reductions taken in 2016 and lower data center operation expense. The decrease in expenses was partially offset by lower revenues.
SG&A expenses decreased $0.1 million, or 0.8%, to $15.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. SG&A expenses were 34.5% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with 33.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease in SG&A expenses was due to lower costs related to headcount reductions taken in 2016. Research and development expense related to software was $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
Revenues decreased $1.4 million, or 3.1%, to $43.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which included a 4.3% estimated negative impact from FX. Excluding the estimated impact of FX, revenues increased $0.6 million, or 1.2%, primarily due to higher project based revenues and retainer-based revenues in EMEA, particularly in public affairs related engagements. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in project-based financial communication revenues in North America.
Gross profit decreased $2.0 million, or 12.0%, to $15.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Gross profit margin decreased 3.5 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to higher compensation related to an increase in billable professionals and fewer high margin project engagements in North America.
SG&A expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 1.8%, to $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. SG&A expenses were 25.6% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with 25.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

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 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to allowance for doubtful accounts and unbilled services, goodwill, income taxes and contingencies on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on current facts and circumstances, historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable. These results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying 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 policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:
|
|
• |
Revenue recognition |
|
|
• |
Allowance for doubtful accounts and unbilled services |
|
|
• |
Goodwill and other intangible assets |
|
|
• |
Income taxes |
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
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 of our goodwill and intangible assets. Factors we consider important that could trigger an interim impairment review include, but are not limited to, the following: significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; a significant change in the manner of our use of the acquired asset or strategy for our overall business; a significant negative industry or economic trend; and our market capitalization relative to net book value. When we evaluate these factors and determine that a triggering event has occurred, we perform an interim impairment analysis.
As of October 1, 2016, the date of our last annual goodwill impairment test, the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units significantly exceeded their respective carrying values and no further testing was required. Through our quarterly assessment, we determined that there were no events or circumstances that more likely than not would reduce the fair value of any of our reporting units below their carrying value.
There can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions used in our goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted cash flows are not achieved, we may be required to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment analysis prior to our next annual impairment test. In addition, if the aforementioned factors have the effect of changing one of the critical assumptions or estimates we use to calculate the value of our goodwill or intangible assets, we may be required to record goodwill and/or intangible asset impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with our next annual impairment test or if a triggering event occurs outside of the quarter during which the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

We have generally financed our day-to-day operations, capital expenditures and acquisitions through cash flows from operations. During the first quarter of our fiscal year, our cash needs generally exceed our cash flows from operations due to the payment of annual incentive compensation. Our operating cash flows are generally positive subsequent to the first quarter of each year.
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, affect the changes in these balances.
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 foreign exchange rates. We multiply the result by the number of days in the quarter.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $93.1 million compared with $33.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in the use of cash was primarily due to lower cash collections as a result of lower revenues and increased annual bonus payments. DSO was 98 days at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $5.7 million compared with net cash used in investing activities of $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Capital expenditures were $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $2.3 million compared with $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2017 included $37.0 million of net borrowings under our Senior Bank Credit Facility and payments of $36.9 million to settle repurchases of our common stock, and $3.1 million of refundable deposits related to one of our foreign entities. Our financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 included net borrowings under our Senior Bank Credit Facility of $7.0 million, payments of $2.9 million to settle repurchases of our common stock and $1.4 million related to cash paid from the issuance of common stock under our equity compensation plan.
Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2017, our capital resources included $121.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity of $442.3 million under our five-year $550.0 million Senior Bank Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2017, we had $107.0 million of borrowing outstanding under our Senior Bank Credit Facility and $0.7 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduced the availability of borrowings. We primarily use letters of credit in lieu of security deposits for our leased office facilities.
Future Capital Needs
We anticipate that our future capital needs will principally consist of funds required for:
|
|
• |
operating and general corporate expenses relating to the operation of our businesses; |
|
|
• |
capital expenditures, primarily for information technology equipment, office furniture and leasehold improvements; |
|
|
• |
debt service requirements, including interest payments on our long-term debt; |
30
|
|
• |
compensating designated executive management and senior manag ing directors under our various long-term incentive compensation programs; |
|
|
• |
discretionary funding of the Stock Repurchase Program; |
|
|
• |
contingent obligations related to our acquisitions; |
|
|
• |
potential acquisitions of businesses that would allow us to diversify or expand our service offerings; and |
|
|
• |
other known future contractual obligations. |
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we spent $5.8 million in capital expenditures to support our organization, including direct support for specific client engagements. We expect to make additional expenditures in an aggregate amount between $35 million and $45 million for the remainder of 2017. 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 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.
Our cash flows from operations have historically exceed our cash needs for capital expenditures and debt service requirements. We believe that our cash flows from operations, supplemented by borrowings under our Senior Bank Credit Facility, as necessary, will provide adequate cash to fund our long-term cash needs from normal operations for the next 12 months or longer.
Our conclusion that we will be able to fund our cash requirements by using existing capital resources and cash generated from operations does not take into account the impact of any future acquisitions, unexpected significant changes in numbers 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 economic conditions change from those currently prevailing or from those now anticipated, or if other unexpected circumstances arise that may have a material effect on the cash flow or profitability of our business, including material negative changes in 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 needs in excess of the identified currently available sources and could require us to raise additional debt or equity funding to meet those needs. Our ability to 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 Senior Bank Credit Facility or the Indenture that governs our 2022 Notes. See “Forward-Looking Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, other than operating leases, and we have not entered into any transactions involving unconsolidated subsidiaries or special purpose entities.
Future Contractual Obligations
There have been no significant changes in our future contractual obligations information as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC.

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, objectives, goals, 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 and other information that is not historical. Forward-looking statements often contain words such as “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts” 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 and expectations at the time we make them and various assumptions. There can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved. Our actual financial results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. 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 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, 2016 filed with the SEC. 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, but are not limited to, the following:
|
|

There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included herein. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances and do not intend to do so.
For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC. There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposure during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (a) were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported and (b) included, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
33
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 results of our operations.
There has been no material change in any risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2017. 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.
