FTI CONSULTING, INC. (NYSE:FCN) Files An 8-K Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

During the second quarter ended June30, 2017, FTI Consulting, Inc. (the “Company” or “FTI Consulting”) continued to evaluate components of its workforce and related expenses, to ensure investment is better aligned with external market demands and reduce overhead costs by streamlining certain infrastructure functions. This process resulted in the Company terminating approximately 4% of the Company’s more than 4,700 employees and closing or vacating leased space in several small international offices during the quarter. All affected employees were notified by June30, 2017, and will be released subject to defined notice periods.

The Company estimates that the termination costs associated with these personnel reductions will be approximately $16.0 million, and other costs will be approximately $2.0 million, which include costs related to closing or vacating leased space in several small international offices. The combined pre-tax income charge of approximately $18.0 million will be recorded in the second quarter of 2017, all of which is estimated to be cash.
