ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On November 2, 2011, FTI Consulting, Inc. (FTI Consulting) held a conference call relating to the press release issued on November 2, 2011 announcing financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The full text of the transcript of the conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, accretion of contingent consideration and special charges. FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” as a segment’s share of consolidated operating income before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, accretion of contingent consideration and special charges. FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted Net Income” as net income excluding the impact of special charges and debt extinguishment costs that were incurred in that period. FTI Consulting defines “Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share” (“Adjusted EPS”) as earnings per diluted share (“EPS”) excluding the per share impact of the special charges and debt extinguishment costs that were incurred in that period. Although Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are not measures of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), FTI Consulting believes that these measures can be useful operating performance measures for evaluating FTI Consulting’s results of operations as compared from period-to-period and as compared to our competitors. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are common alternative measures of operating performance used by investors, financial analysts and rating agencies to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry. FTI Consulting uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our segments.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies unless the definition is the same. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in our statements of income. Reconciliations of operating income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, segment operating profit to Adjusted Segment EBITDA, net income to Adjusted Net Income and EPS to Adjusted EPS are included in the accompanying financial tables to the Press Release furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

The information included herein, including Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into any filing pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any incorporation by reference language in any such filing, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
