Summary of FTI CONSULTING INC

ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On November 4, 2009, FTI Consulting, Inc. ("FTI") held a conference call relating to our financial results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009, operating results by business segment and other information. The full text of the transcript of the conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

The transcript includes information regarding operating income before depreciation and amortization of intangible assets plus non-operating litigation settlements ("EBITDA") for FTI and segment EBITDA for FTI's five business segments ("Segment EBITDA"). We use EBITDA and Segment EBITDA in evaluating financial performance. Although EBITDA is not a measure of financial condition or performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") we believe that it can be a useful operating performance measure for evaluating our results of operation as compared from period to period and as compared to our competitors. EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by investors, financial analysts and rating agencies to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry. FTI uses Segment EBITDA to evaluate and compare the operating performance of its segments and it is one of the primary measures used to determine employee bonuses. FTI also uses EBITDA to value the businesses it acquires or anticipates acquiring. EBITDA is 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. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in our statements of income.

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 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.
