Letter to Our Stakeholders
FTI Consulting’s success as a company is not based on short-term, market-driven factors. To the contrary, we have found that sustainable value comesfrom developing and promoting great professionals, finding and supporting people with ambition to grow their businesses, and investing behind thosepeople on a multiyear basis.
Given that multiyear commitment, it has been natural for our company to embrace the ESG goals that we
see as essential to creating a sustainable growth platform. For us, it is clear that maintaining our strong
growth trajectory requires that we continue to attract and promote the people who represent the breadthof diverse talent in our society, that we minimize our impact on the environment and that we support thecommunities in which we live and do business.

With that in mind, FTI Consulting is pleased to share its third annual Corporate Sustainability Report.
This report reflects a continuation of the company’s long-standing commitment to being a responsible
corporate citizen. Though we recognize there is more work to be done, I would like to thank our more than
7,800 professionals across the globe for their efforts in helping FTI Consulting make a positive impact forour stakeholders.

Recent accomplishments include:

We look forward to continuing this journey and sharing our progress with you.

— Advancing Diversity within Our Leadership: We made progress on our efforts to reach 165 female
Senior Managing Directors and 120 historically underrepresented minority (“HURM”) Senior Managing
Directors by 2025, which is reflected in a 10% increase in female Senior Managing Directors and a 21%
increase in HURM Senior Managing Directors in 2022 compared with 2021.
— Being Good Environmental Stewards: From a sustainability perspective, we continued to work
toward our ambition of reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and set forwardlooking targets for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, as well as Scope 3 emissions from businesstravel. We submitted our letter of intent to the Science Based Targets initiative to validate ouremissions reduction targets.

CASE STUDYUPLIFTING UKRAINE: OUR CONTINUED GLOBAL EFFORTS TO SUPPORT UKRAINESITUATION
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, FTI Consulting professionals sought immediate and ongoing ways tosupport efforts on the ground and in neighboring countries through our Corporate Citizenship Program.

OUR ROLE
Since 2022, our colleagues around the globe have come together to show support for distinct and often underrepresented
communities in Ukraine, including initiatives like the following, among others:.
— Professionals from Johannesburg to New York used their eight hours of company-sponsored volunteer time to spearhead
initiatives such as clothing drives and the transportation of medical supplies for internally displaced and refugee groups.
— FTI Consulting formed a cross-segment internal task force dedicated to activating company-sponsored pro bono efforts for
Ukraine. The task force quickly launched pro bono engagements to provide short-, medium- and long-term support to address
the complex situations that organizations in Ukraine and the surrounding countries were facing.
— Our FTI Pride Network Employee Resource Group dedicated fundraising proceeds during Global Pride Month to benefit NGO
Insight, an organization supporting LGBTQ+ youth refugees, and raised more than $7,000.
— Sergii Drobysh, a Consultant and a Ukraine native, was devastated by the toll of the war on his home country, particularly the
impact on children, animals and the environment. Using his passion for photography, Sergii captured Ukraine’s nature andwildlife in prints. Colleagues purchased the prints by donating to the cause, raising more than $4,000 for charities supporting
Ukraine relief efforts: UAnimals and Voices of Children.

Our culture at FTI Consulting is captured throughthe articulation of our common values, whichspell out the words “I CARE.”
These values highlight two key points:

Our people strive to live the FTI Consulting values and help create a common
culture that is grounded by each of our core values.

INTEGRITY“I” is for Integrity, which is the value that scores the highest in terms of both ourcurrent self-assessment and our aspirations. We share a broad agreement that thepeople we work with are trustworthy, ethical and value long-term success overshort-term gain. Integrity is the foundation on which the other values stand and theone most firmly ingrained today.

CREATIVITY“C” is for Creativity, which is meant to capture the ideas of innovation andmeasured risk-taking for the firm, as well as anticipating future client needs anddoing the right thing for clients every day.

ACHIEVEMENT“A” is for Achievement. To FTI Consulting employees, values should include
not just who we are and how we act, but also what we achieve for our clientsand our teams. In reality, the firm rewards achievement, and so we felt for thevalues to be “real,” it was important to include achievement explicitly.

RESPECT“R” is for Respect, which includes the basics of professionalism, such as
disagreeing with ideas and not people, and also taking continual steps to makeour workplace more inclusive so that we are better able to serve our increasingly
diverse clients while becoming an employer of choice for top talent.

EMPATHY“E” is for Empathy, recognizing that all FTI Consulting employees are humanbeings with feelings and lives outside of work. Human connectivity motivates all of
us and makes FTI Consulting a special place to work. It’s not just that we achieve
great results, it’s that we have a remarkable team of people who work together tomake results happen.

— “I” implies that living the values is a personal exercise — one forwhich each of us has responsibility.
— “CARE” implies both concern for the well-being of theorganization and also ownership — that having this organization
thrive matters to each of us.

CASE STUDYESTABLISHING AN ESG LEADER IN SOUTH AFRICASITUATIONOUR ROLE

Remgro Limited (“Remgro”) is a South Africa-based investment holding
company listed on the JSE Limited (formerly the Johannesburg Securities
Exchange). Remgro primarily invests in the healthcare, consumer products,
financial services, infrastructure, industrial and media industries. As part of its
responsibility to run its business sustainably, Remgro believes it must continue
to align with the broader societal and environmental context to influence andenable solutions to some of the most pressing issues facing South Africa today.
Remgro engaged a team of professionals from FTI Consulting to develop an ESG
strategy, road map and execution plan to support the company’s commitment
to creating a more sustainable future and supporting South Africa’s national
endeavors to achieve the UN SDGs as part of the UN 2030 Agenda for
Sustainable Development.

Remgro’s plan sought to align with its ambition to be a leader in ESG. Beyond
developing the ESG strategy, FTI Consulting’s team, consisting of experts
from its Economic Consulting and Strategic Communications segments,
acted as an implementation partner, carrying out assessments, advising on
governance mechanisms and communications and assisting with reporting.
During the team’s engagement, FTI Consulting worked with Remgro tounderstand how its governance structure could be adapted to incorporate
ESG strategic and operational management, conduct a peer and ESG
stakeholder assessment, and develop key metrics to measure progress. The
team also conducted interviews with Remgro’s leadership team and investee
companies. FTI Consulting developed a revised ESG governance structure,a strategic ESG road map with clear performance targets and goals, and astakeholder engagement strategy.

OUR IMPACTFTI Consulting equipped Remgro with a purpose-led ESG report narrative and key performance indicators (“KPI”) for its portfolio of investee
companies, as well as its own operations. These KPIs were designed to build on Remgro’s legacy of social initiatives and inform overall business andinvestment strategy and process, including governance and disclosure practices. Remgro’s ESG and sustainability performance is now presented
in a standalone ESG report, as well as in its annual report, with targets ranging from climate emissions reduction and energy savings to equalityand diversity goals. As Remgro’s KPIs are further reviewed, strengthened and achieved as a result of FTI Consulting’s advisory work, Remgro
believes its relationships with its investee companies are also strengthened. The FTI Consulting team continues to provide ongoing strategic
communications support and advise on the implementation of process improvements, including TCFD matters.

CASE STUDYFUELING A CARBON-FREE FUTURE
SITUATIONOUR ROLE

With California’s commitment to achieve 100%
renewable and zero carbon electricity by 2045
and expected retirements of baseload natural
gas and nuclear power plants in the state, a longstanding energy client saw a market opportunity
for bioenergy with carbon capture and storage
technology (“the project”). To assess viability ofthe project, the client needed to evaluate suitablesites to locate the project, examine its potential
economic benefits to the state, analyze applicableclean energy tax credits and understand thepolitical landscape as well as the universe of
stakeholders that would be involved.

Following an initial screening analysis, the company engaged FTI Consulting’s Economic Consulting
segment in 2022 to identify an optimal site for the project in California. FTI Consulting applied its
power market model to California and the Western grid to determine the optimal zone to build afacility, taking into account expected costs and forecasted revenues along with its proximity tobiomass supply and potential CO2 storage reservoirs. Together with our Strategic Communications
experts, the team evaluated the value of Renewable Energy Credits and quantified applicable clean
energy tax credits such as 45Q, Production Tax Credit and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard.
Our Strategic Communications segment was then engaged to conduct a stakeholder mapping exercise,examining the political and policy landscape around energy and environmental issues in the state.
FTI Consulting’s team identified educational and advocacy opportunities around the benefits of the
project, such as providing reliable power to the state, while removing carbon emissions and reducing
the risk of rampant wildfires.

OUR IMPACTFTI Consulting delivered a multi-phase economic study showing that the facility would lead to hundreds of new jobs during construction andadditional job creation once in operation. The FTI Consulting team’s analysis revealed that thousands of metric tons per year of CO2 could be removed
from the air through geologic sequestration. The company leveraged the findings of the team’s research to pitch to stakeholders in California on
the benefits of biomass to replace retiring fossil fuel assets.

CASE STUDY

TRANSFORMING BREAST CANCER TOGETHER:LAUNCHING AND MANAGING EUROPE’S LEADING BREAST CANCER COALITIONSITUATION
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in women across all countries within the European Union (“EU”).
However, substantial disparities in prevention, treatment and care exist between European countries, as well as
regions within those countries. The emotional, personal and professional challenges faced by women living withbreast cancer and their caregivers are not well-recognized by the general public and policymakers.
Against this backdrop, the global healthcare company Novartis spearheaded an idea to elevate and maintainbreast cancer at the top of the EU policy agenda. A team of professionals from FTI Consulting were engaged
to launch and manage a coalition of stakeholders. Named Transforming Breast Cancer Together (“TBCT”), thecoalition’s membership spans sectors and unites Europe’s leading patient organizations, members of the European
Parliament (“EP”), oncology companies and professional organizations.

OUR ROLEFTI Consulting’s engagement with the coalition began with its launch in 2017. Experts from our Strategic
Communications segment developed a joint vision for the coalition, conducted outreach to members of
the EP to provide guidance and participate in TBCT, and brought 11 organizations on board. Since then,
the team has supported the coalition’s engagement activities to develop and implement the first EU-wide
cancer plan and launched multiple calls to action, spotlighting the realities of living with breast cancer.

OUR IMPACT
As a result of FTI Consulting’s ongoing counsel and support, TBCT is now recognized as the leadingbreast cancer policy platform in Europe. The team has helped TBCT establish privileged and trusted
relationships with key decision makers in the EU, which have shaped the first EU-wide cancer plan.
FTI Consulting continues to partner with TBCT to monitor traction and visibility of the platform. Throughthe partnership, FTI Consulting has worked with the coalition and has:
— Organized several high-level and roundtable events focused on breast cancer and women’s
health.
— Released advocacy and communication materials, including peer-reviewed articles. The
materials have been widely used by patient advocates beyond the coalition members.
— Successfully contributed to the EP’s position on the EU Cancer Plan by highlighting challenges
faced by metastatic breast cancer patients and the need to ensure equal access to high-quality careacross Europe, an area that was neglected in the plan.

Environmental Management Overview
At FTI Consulting, we are committed to promoting environmental sustainability across our business practices and are consciously seeking to improve ourenvironmental performance. As climate change impacts our ecosystems and economies globally, we recognize it as a serious threat and we strive to play a rolein the collective response toward safeguarding our planet’s future. To achieve this, we have set a range of objectives and targets to strategically guide us in ourjourney to reach net-zero GHG emissions by 2030.
Our Environmental Responsibility & Climate Change Disclosure Policy closely aligns with ouractions to reduce our environmental footprint, in which we aim to achieve a range of objectives
and targets across high-impact areas for our business. Our Policy outlines expectations
across climate change disclosure, ESG oversight and policies, real estate standards, energy
consumption, waste and water management, travel and goal-setting. The expectations
outlined in this policy guide our environmental strategy, ensure we conduct business in amanner that fully complies with local environmental legislation, and align our actions toachieve a range of objectives and targets to reduce our environmental footprint.
Our sustainability management approach includes data-backed initiatives that are led byrigorous oversight. We track and disclose a variety of environmental metrics that provide
transparency to our stakeholders and allow our company to more accurately track ourenvironmental progress to reach our targets.
Given we are a professional services firm with no manufacturing or product distribution
activities, we operate with a relatively small environmental footprint, which is driven primarily
by employee travel and our corporate office spaces. Regardless, we continue to make efforts to
reduce our environmental impact and GHG emissions where feasible.
Our TCFD-aligned assessment of climate-related risks and opportunities has expanded ourunderstanding of the impact and dependencies our business has on the environment, further
informing our sustainable practices and initiatives.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY REPORT27

INTRODUCTION | ENVIRONMENT | SOCIAL | GOVERNANCE | APPENDIX

Through research and assessment of the contributors to the firm’s overall environmental footprint, real estate, business travel and non-hazardous waste are the areas we have identified as having the highest
impact for our business. Our strategies for managing our impact in each of these areas are:

Real Estate— Scope of Impact: Our real estate environmental impact
encompasses the use of commercial real estate and theconsumption of energy.
— Impact Mitigation: FTI Consulting is focused on occupyingbuildings that are LEED-certified (or local equivalent)
wherever possible, implementing energy and water-efficientdesigns for new office build-outs, using materials that meetstringent guidelines for reduced GHG emissions, minimizing
the creation of waste and implementing waste diversion
practices in office operations. FTI Consulting is committed
to reducing energy consumption per employee, particularly
from non-renewable sources, and is increasingly exploring
opportunities for renewable sources of energy. For new
offices, we expect to incorporate minimum energy efficiency
requirements, along with submetering to closely monitor
consumption and implement conservation measures
where identified.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

Business Travel

Non-Hazardous Waste— Scope of Impact: Business travel is a large component of
FTI Consulting’s operations, whether it involves traveling toclient sites or internal or external networking opportunities. The
modes of transportation our employees take contribute to ouremissions profile.

— Scope of Impact: Though relatively minor due to the nature of
our industry, the non-hazardous waste generated through ouroperations contributes to pollution and emissions, especially
if improperly managed. Of note, FTI Consulting does not
generate hazardous waste through any of its operations.

— Impact Mitigation: Recognizing that travel is a necessary partof conducting business, FTI Consulting seeks to monitor our
GHG emissions related to air, car, rail and hotel per employee
on average. We have also implemented travel policies designed
to promote travel options that result in lower emissions, suchas business class and black car restrictions, encouraging theuse of hybrid rental vehicles and investing in videoconferencing
capabilities. Efforts also include educating employees on theenvironmental benefits of taking the train over air travel on
central travel routes, such as travel between New York andWashington, D.C., in the United States.

— Impact Mitigation: FTI Consulting is focused on reducing
our environmental impact per employee by minimizing
the creation of non-hazardous waste, implementing nonhazardous waste diversion practices and participating inrecycling programs.

Our 10 Environmental Intentions:
To further guide our environmental efforts and successfully implement our strategy, we strive to achieve 10 general intentions, which are
outlined in our Environmental Responsibility & Climate Change Disclosure Policy. These intentions are centered around reducing emissions,promoting sound environmental management policies, practices and oversight, minimizing waste generation and supporting interested
parties in achieving their environmental goals.

CASE STUDYADVISING WIEN ENERGIE ON DECARBONIZATION SCENARIOS FOR VIENNA’S ENERGY SYSTEMSITUATIONOUR ROLE

The government of Vienna, Austria, set an
ambitious target to reach carbon neutrality by
2040. Against this background, Wien Energie — theenergy utility owned by the municipality of Vienna
and the largest regional energy supplier in Austria— engaged FTI Consulting subsidiary Compass
Lexecon to provide economic and modelingsupport in developing scenarios for decarbonizing
the entire Viennese energy system. The scenarios
covered heating, cooling and mobility, as well asother energy end use.

— Compass Lexecon experts, led by Vice Presidents
Gerald Aue and Anton Burger, along with theParis-based energy modeling team, developed
and analyzed scenarios regarding energy,
particularly electricity demand, as well as thecoverage of electricity demand by production
within Vienna. Moreover, for each sector, they
estimated the investments needed to achieve
decarbonization targets.
— Particular focus was also put on the district
heating sector. The Compass Lexecon
team analyzed decarbonization using both
decarbonized fuels (green gases) in combined
heat and power plants, and investments indecarbonized technologies, including large heatpumps, geothermal installations andheat storages.

OUR IMPACT
Based on the analysis, the Compass Lexecon team developed a cost-optimal generation
capacity replacement and extension path to achieve full decarbonization by 2040. In
a published report, the scenarios were used to illustrate how the policy objectives could beachieved and what economic and energy system effects would result.

“Decarbonization is one of the great challenges of our time. The Austrianfederal government and the city of Vienna have set ambitious targets toachieve carbon neutrality. The goal ‘Vienna will be climate-neutral by
2040’ thereby exceeds the EU requirements and provides a great example
for other cities and countries to follow. I am proud to be able to contributeto this goal and to advise on the most efficient way in which the set policy
objectives can be achieved.”

footprint, but it also aligns with our broader business strategy. At our physical locations, oursustainability initiatives encompass energy efficiency, emissions reduction and sustainable waste
management. These efforts extend from LEED-certified (or equivalent) offices and energy-efficiency
measures for office build-outs to waste diversion and recycling. Going forward, we are working with athird party to conduct energy audits for several of our largest offices, with the goal of identifying energy
and water conservation opportunities.

Ongoing emissions assessments and data collection, as well as tracking improvements, have proved
to be successful ways of identifying Scope 1 emissions reduction methods. In 2022, we took significant
steps toward fully eliminating Scope 1 carbon emissions from direct fuel combustion. We identified abackup generator in one of our offices and sold the single company-owned vehicle to further reduce
our Scope 1 emissions.
Reductions to our Scope 2 emissions will continue to be driven by our real estate strategy, whichemphasizes energy efficiency and the optimization of real estate use through layout considerations,shared workspaces and remote working capabilities.
Scope 3 reduction efforts will center around ongoing improvements to our business travel policies
and employee education and awareness-building efforts on the emissions-related implications of
their travel.

Our Aldersgate office in London, the largest by headcount, has an environmental management system(“EMS”) certified to ISO 14001. As such, we are incorporating the best practices associated with thiscertification across other offices. We achieved ISO 14001 certifications for our Aldermanbury Square
office in London and our Paseo de Recoletos and Paseo de la Castellana offices in Madrid in 2022 and for
our Place de la Madeleine office in Paris in 2023. In total, 21% of global FTI Consulting regular employee
headcount1 is based out of an ISO 14001-certified office building as of December 31, 2022.

2022 also marked the first year our company purchased RECs. Looking ahead, we are evaluating
opportunities to expand our portfolio of both RECs and carbon offsets. We are also developing a roadmap centered around our target to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2030, using a combination ofboth offsets and reduction strategies.

CREATING SUSTAINABLE & COLLABORATIVE WORKPLACESIn 2022, FTI Consulting colleagues in Amsterdam moved into a new officelocated in a sustainable building. Our new space is certified as “Excellent”
by BREEAM, the world’s leading science-based suite of validation andcertification systems for a sustainable built environment. The office spaceis considered a mixed-use redevelopment that is fully equipped with the
integration of bGrid, smart mobility and green rooftops to create a sustainableoffice life for our employees. Our certification is driven by accomplishments inheating and ventilation efficiency, water conservation and the installment ofsolar panels. This office operates on 50.3% renewable energy per year and is ademonstration of our concentrated efforts to optimize our offices.

Our latest office in Brussels also opened to FTI Consulting in 2022. Originallyconstructed in 1968, our Brussels office underwent renovations in 2021,
resulting in a certification as “Good” by BREEAM. The building offers a rangeof services and facilities, including shared meeting spaces, secured bicycle
parking and a large garden to promote energy efficiency and encourage
FTI Consulting employees to use less carbon intensive modes oftransportation for commuting. The carpets furnishing our Brussels office
were made of reconstituted fishing nets.
During the relocation and renovation of both offices, FTI Consulting worked
with a third-party provider to minimize and divert waste. Furniture from bothoffices was redistributed or recycled, reducing our environmental impact.

“As part of FTI Consulting’s real estate
strategy for sustainability, we want tocreate eco-friendly workspace for our
professionals. When exploring new offices,like our spaces in Brussels and Amsterdam,
we strive to obtain a BREEAM or LEED
certification but also look at creative ways
to incorporate sustainability. This includes
the use of sustainable products, upcycling
items as part of our furniture andpartnering with vendors to ensure that old
furniture from our previous buildings canbe either re-purposed to schools, sold on
to other companies or recycled.”

Environmental Strategy for Our Offices
To continue driving progress toward integrating sustainable
environmental practices, the core components of our environmental
strategy for offices include:— Optimizing office portfolio to reduce per capita environmental impact;— Employing design and operational strategies that target occupant wellbeing and leverage eco-friendly materials;— Minimizing waste creation and adopting practices aimed at diverting
waste for office operations and the build-out of new offices;— Exploring renewable energy sources and integrating renewable energy
criteria into new site selection; and— Collaborating with landlords to submeter our individual spaces, where
feasible, to allow for energy consumption optimization.
We have also put stringent guidelines in place for materials purchased for
new office spaces, considering GHG emissions, air quality and pollutant
source controls. These materials undergo rigorous testing for compliancewith volatile organic compounds regulations, and we also consider the
manufacturing life cycle of materials in the context of the waste andcarbon emissions generated in delivering the final product.

In line with our efforts to reduce our environmental impact, we arefocused on responsible resource management and consumption.
This includes implementing water, waste and biodiversity
management strategies that minimize both FTI Consulting’s and our
suppliers’ impact on the environment.

Water Management
Due to the nature of our business, our water consumption primarily
comes from our offices, where we are continuously assessing
ways to improve water conservation efforts and reduce water
consumption.
Some of the ways in which we reduce water consumption arethrough the installation of low-flow fixtures and motion sensor sinks
in bathrooms, kitchens and break-out areas. In addition, many of
our offices are LEED-certified and have new technology that assists
in water conservation efforts.
FTI Consulting is compliant with water quality regulatory
requirements as governed by the jurisdiction of each office location.
FTI Consulting does not engage in wastewater treatment operationsof any kind.

Non-Hazardous Waste Management
FTI Consulting does not generate hazardous waste of any kind.
Therefore, our waste management practices focus solely on
reducing non-hazardous waste, implementing waste diversion

practices and participating in recycling programs. Our e-waste isrecycled through a contracted partner.
Since 2019, FTI Consulting has committed to a minimum of 90%
landfill diversion for office decommissioning projects in North
America. So far, we have decommissioned 10 offices, with eachmeeting that target. Filtered drinking water stations are available
to reduce the use of single-use, plastic bottles. Clearly marked
recycling bins are also conveniently placed throughout our offices topromote recycling.

Biodiversity and Land Use
FTI Consulting recognizes the importance of protecting biodiversity
and the responsible use of land. While the nature of our businessand our physical concentration in urban areas implies minimal
impact, we strive to reduce our impact in these areas. As with ourreal estate strategy, we consistently work toward minimizing ourland use and physical footprint.

Supplier Standards
FTI Consulting is a participant of the UN Global Compact, and, aspart of our Vendor Code of Conduct, our vendors are expected to
uphold the same, or similar, standards. Vendors are also expected
to be committed to mitigating environmental risks, conserving andprotecting natural resources, and managing energy use and otherresources responsibly.

Climate Strategy and Resilience
Climate Strategy
FTI Consulting understands that identifying climate-related risks and opportunities is a key aspect of
reducing our environmental footprint and increasing the resiliency of our business. In addition, we work
to identify and incorporate climate-related risks and opportunities into our enterprise risk management
system and business strategy.
Utilizing the recommendations from the TCFD as guidance, we continue to make progress in advancing
our environmental strategy, monitoring our progress in mitigating our environmental footprint, andfurther integrating climate considerations into our risk management and oversight processes. Throughthese initiatives, we seek to promote environmental sustainability, conserve natural resources andprevent environmental pollution.

Our Climate-Related Risks and Opportunities

FTI Consulting has processes in place to identify and assess climate-related risks and opportunities thatare both specific to our company and relevant to our stakeholders. Our approach to climate-related
risk identification is underpinned by our Environmental Responsibility & Climate Change Disclosure
Policy and the firm’s broader approach to risk management. Similarly, in determining climate-related
opportunities, FTI Consulting routinely assesses our own strategy and policies.
While the nature of climate-related risks and opportunities is complex, we generally categorize short-,

Climate-Related Risk Identification and Management
As a global company, FTI Consulting is subject to environmental and climate-related risks across multiple jurisdictions.
Each of the risks identified below is part of FTI Consulting’s ongoing monitoring and reporting processes. ESG and sustainability-related risk reporting is presented by the Chief Human Resources Officer and/or
the Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer to the Nominating, Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility Committee, as well as the full Board of Directors, annually with additional updates on notabledevelopments provided as appropriate. FTI Consulting audits ongoing operational risks based on the likelihood of occurrence and potential severity. The risks are indexed for leadership by significance andaddressed accordingly.
Based on guidance from the TCFD, we assessed our transitional and physical climate-related risks and further classified each risk as physical, regulatory, technology, market or reputational.1 A detailed descriptionof our climate-related risks and associated risk management strategies is provided below.

Climate change may increase the likelihood and severity of acute physical risks,such as natural disasters and extreme weather events, which may interrupt
our ability to effectively maintain client service, notably the continuity of our IT
systems. Natural disasters could impair the ability of our people to safely travel
to and work in FTI Consulting’s or our clients’ facilities and disrupt our ability towork in our offices and at other locations.

As a professional services firm, acute physical risk does not impact our business on a frequent basis.
Our IT systems and infrastructure have been architected to mitigate physical risks where applicable.
This includes failover provisions for continued technological functionality and access to data.
FTI Consulting also utilizes several remote working technologies, such as virtual desktop. In addition,
we work to identify and incorporate climate-related risks and opportunities into our enterprise risk
management system and business strategy, virtual private networks and cloud-based services.

Climate change may increase the impact of chronic physical risks, such as
rising temperatures, severe storms, energy disruptions and rising sea levels.
The impact of these events may impair our ability to conduct operations froman adversely impacted location or otherwise harm our people, property
or equipment.

FTI Consulting occupies offices located across 31 countries,2 all of which are leased from third
parties. Our Real Estate team is responsible for monitoring potential physical risks when making
decisions related to our facilities. With respect to IT business continuity, we are generally able
to exercise flexible working practices across the globe, and our systems and infrastructure havebeen designed with that in mind. This includes failover provisions that allow continued access tofunctionality and data. FTI Consulting utilizes a number of remote working technologies, such as

The rapidly changing regulatory environment can posecompliance challenges.

Mitigationy
FTI Consulting’s Code of Conduct and Business Ethics states that we seek to comply with all laws andregulations. As a professional services company, we do not operate businesses or facilities that containhigh emissions. Therefore, we are not subject to many laws and regulations that pertain to climate-related
risk. FTI Consulting has not had any climate-related litigation nor do we believe that we have liability forcausing climate change because of the nature of our business and operations.
We understand that climate-related regulation is an emerging space, and many countries are in different
stages. We endeavor to stay abreast of regulatory developments across the world to support compliance.
FTI Consulting’s management team monitors regulations in the jurisdictions where we do business. In
addition to directly tracking legal developments across the globe, we receive frequent updates from ouroutside law firm partners and insurance companies, among others.
Furthermore, the General Counsel provides an update on such potential regulatory requirements to theBoard of Directors as necessary.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

To serve as a trusted advisor for our clients, FTI Consulting relies heavily
on the use of technology. Technological disruptions due to climate change
may inhibit our professionals’ ability to serve as a trusted advisor.

Recognizing the importance of technology for our business, we have worked to make our systems reliable
and resilient. Examples of this resiliency are outlined in the physical risk mitigation strategies on theprevious page.

FTI Consulting may be indirectly affected by the costs for energy
offsets, the availability of renewable energy sources or the availability ofsustainable travel options.

To drive and protect shareholder value, it is critical for FTI Consulting to understand and consider evolving
market expectations. At a macro level, we do not operate in a high-emissions industry and, therefore, aretypically less affected by pertinent market shifts. However, we will continue to assess how these risks may
impact our business so we can be prepared to respond accordingly.

FTI Consulting competes primarily on the basis of our breadth of services,
our geographic reach, the quality of our work and the expertise of our
professionals. As the impacts of climate change occur, stakeholders’perception of our role in the transition to a low-carbon economy will
become increasingly important.

Mitigating reputational risk is critically important to our brand and commercial viability as it influences ourability to attract and retain leading people and clientele. Reputational risk is also considered as it relates
to our client selection process.
Moreover, we continue to gauge market reactions and expectations through biannual ESG shareholder
engagement conducted by our Investor Relations team. These engagement activities produce valuable
feedback that is shared with and considered by management and the Nominating, Corporate Governanceand Social Responsibility Committee of the Board of Directors to inform our decisions and strategy,

FTI Consulting’s Opportunity Capitalization Strategy
FTI Consulting’s primary environmental impact is business travel resulting in Scope 3 emissions. We have sought to systemically reduce
this impact through the introduction of videoconferencing, initiated in 2015 and enhanced in 2020 as part of the COVID-19 remote work
responses. FTI Consulting provides laptops and videoconferencing tools to all employees, which has helped facilitate the reduction of
employee travel.
In 2019, the company defaulted printers across all office locations worldwide to print double-sided to reduce paper usage.
In 2019, FTI Consulting completed its migration of the Annapolis, Md., Data Center to the cloud. This project equates to a CO2 reduction of
1,162 CO2e (tons) annually. In addition, FTI Consulting recycled or repurposed a significant portion of the materials from the office location,
most notably, generator equipment and power distribution system materials.

CASE STUDYPOLSKA GRUPA ENERGETYCZNA S.A.: IDENTIFYING POTENTIAL REFORMS
OF THE EUROPEAN CARBON MARKET TO ENHANCE PRICE SIGNALSSITUATION
Europe’s ambition to fast-track the decarbonizationof its economy requires a strong and predictablecarbon price signal. The recent surge in European
carbon price levels and volatility and the growing
activity of financial players — banks and investors —have sparked a debate about the role and potential
impact of speculative trading in the EU Emission
Trading Scheme (“ETS”) and, more fundamentally,
about a reform of the ETS to stabilize European Union
Allowance (“EUA”) prices.

OUR ROLE
Polska Grupa Energetyczna S.A., a state-owned public
power company and the largest power producer
in Poland, engaged a team from FTI Consulting
subsidiary Compass Lexecon consisting of Paris-based
Executive Vice President Fabien Roques, Senior Vice
President Guillaume Duquesne, as well as Senior
Economist Florian Bourcier, to:— Assess the role and potential impact of speculationand of financial players in the EU ETS market, bothon short-term EUA price volatility and long-term
price signals for decarbonization; and— Map the possible measures to enhance EU carbon
price signals and the functioning of the EU ETS.
The team concluded that the increase in EU carbon
price levels and volatility over the past five years
does not seem disconnected from the evolutionof market fundamentals. Some indicators suggestthat the increase in financial trading could also havecontributed to the increased volatility of EUA prices.
In addition, the team identified the structural featuresof the EU ETS market design, which explain the highvolatility and could favor speculation, particularly ata time of high uncertainty on the future scope anddesign of the EU ETS.

OUR IMPACT
The Compass Lexecon analysis revealed
that EUA prices’ lack of predictability could
have significant short- and long-term
consequences on the EU policy objective tofast-track decarbonization, including higher
compliance costs for obliged entities and higher
decarbonization costs. The report provided
rigorous economic analysis to inform theEuropean policy debate about a potential
reform of the EU ETS, and identified a toolkit
of measures that could prove helpful to improve
the ability of the EU ETS market to provide a
predictable and efficient price signal
for decarbonization.

CASE STUDYTAKING ACTION TO SUPPORT GLOBAL SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTSSITUATION
In 2022, extreme weather events and biodiversity loss further emphasized the ongoing effects of climatechange. Through initiatives spearheaded by our professionals, colleagues learned more about the impact of
their personal footprint while collectively contributing to global sustainability efforts.

OUR IMPACT
In 2022, these efforts contributed to more than 850 trees planted, over 100 pounds of trash collected,
and thousands of clothing items sorted and redistributed to those in need.

OUR ROLE
Through volunteer efforts in environmental sustainability, our professionals gave back to local communities,
preserved natural habitats and promoted sustainable practices:— In Boston, colleagues each filled a trash bag with debris and litter with the Esplanade Association, anonprofit dedicated to revitalizing and maintaining the Charles River Esplanade.
— In Hong Kong, our colleagues sorted more than two tons of unwanted clothes with Redress, anenvironmental organization working to reduce waste in the fashion industry.
— In London, we partnered with Global Generation, an education organization working to create healthy,
integrated and environmentally responsible communities, to build a sustainable education center. Using
reclaimed materials, colleagues constructed a community space in London that promotes outdoor
education and a low-carbon future.
— In Miami, our professionals joined the International Coastal Cleanup Day, collecting more than 70 pounds ofgarbage at a local beach while raising awareness about plastic pollution in oceans.
— In South Africa, colleagues planted 38 fruit trees and donated additional trees in honor of Mandela Day tosupport two children’s homes, the Johannesburg Children’s Home and the South Africa Children’s Home inCape Town.

“I was delighted to volunteer with colleagues from FTI Consulting’s Hong Kong office to sort
more than two tons of unwanted clothing for Redress. Even though we were told about thevolume of clothing, seeing it in person was staggering. I now think twice about my family’s
shopping habits, and I am glad we were able to give the clothes a new home rather thansending them to the landfill.”

For our employees welcoming little ones at home, we provide paid parental leave for parents
and transitional support following the baby’s arrival in certain locations. In 2022, we madeenhancements to FTI Consulting’s parental leave program in the United States and Australia, which
has been updated to inclusively reflect the varied ways we may choose to grow our families. In
the United States, FTI Consulting adjusted the amount of fully paid parental leave for fathers andadoptive parents from six weeks to 10 weeks. For birth mothers, the short-term disability period
was decoupled from the overall parental leave time period. This allowed for the same number ofparental leave weeks for all parents (birth mothers, fathers and adoptive parents). The amountof short-term disability time needed for recovery from delivery of the child is in addition to theparental leave. In Australia, we updated our parental leave to reflect a gender-neutral policy andprovide up to 18 weeks of full pay for birth, adoption and long-term foster care in addition toparental leave for post-22-week pregnancy loss.

CASE STUDYPROVIDING MEALS TO END GLOBAL FOOD INSECURITYSITUATION
It is estimated that between 691 million and 783
million people in the world faced hunger in 2022.
Considering the midrange, 122 million more
people faced hunger in 2022 than before the
COVID-19 pandemic.1 FTI Consulting professionals
mobilized and worked together to support
organizations from New York to China to help end
hunger and empower communities.

OUR ROLE
The FTI Consulting community addressed foodinsecurity and hunger globally by collecting food
donations, packing and preparing nutritious meals
and delivering them to local organizations.
— In Berlin, Frankfurt and Munich, professionals
volunteered to collect, sort, pack and distribute
food donations to people in need with Tafel, oneof the largest food banks in Germany.
— In Brisbane and Sydney, our colleagues
prepared more than 2,000 meals with FareShareand Our Big Kitchen, two community kitchensserving free meals, to support victims ofAustralia’s devastating floods.

1— In Houston, colleagues volunteered at the Beacon
Homeless Shelter, a central resource of services forcommunity members experiencing homelessness,to greet individuals, prepare and serve lunch anddistribute donated items.
— In New York, our professionals packed 7,000 meals
with Rise Against Hunger, which targets remote,last-mile communities within hunger pockets andprovides meals through local schools. The meals
packed by our colleagues will feed a classroom ofapproximately 30 students for an entire year.
— In Shanghai, following continued COVID-19
pandemic outbreaks and lockdowns, ourprofessionals launched a fundraiser to purchaseand assemble care package items, including instantfood, for a nonprofit providing shelter for the
disadvantaged living in Shanghai.

OUR IMPACT
Collectively, FTI Consulting professionals
donated more than 11,000 meals for thosein need in partnership with six organizations.

“Over 30 colleagues joined forces to support the Tafel food bank in Berlin,Frankfurt and Munich. We worked together with the volunteers on-site, asking
for food donations in front of supermarkets, sorting deliveries of food anddistributing food bags to people in need. For all of us, it was a very grounding
and humbling activity that elicited gratitude for what we have.”

Turnover, Recruitment and Onboarding
As the world continued to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic in 2022, we placed an emphasis on bringing in top talent at all experience levels and creating amore streamlined onboarding process as professionals integrated into FTI Consulting.
TurnoverRecruitment

Onboarding

According to U.S. government data,1 the economy-wide trend known as the “Great
Resignation” that began in 2021 continued into 2022. Consistent with this trend, our higher
than historical average voluntary turnover rate in 2021 continued into 2022, particularlyin the first half of the year, which resulted in a voluntary turnover rate of 15% for full year
2022. Notably, between 2020 and 2022, our voluntary turnover rate averaged 13%, whichis in line with our historical average from 2014 through 2022. However, it is important tonote that economic impacts from COVID-19 in 2020 drove lower than average turnoverrates economy-wide2 that year, which was offset by higher than average historicalturnover rates in 2021 and 2022, due in part to the Great Resignation.

While focusing on retention, FTI Consulting emphasized
bringing in new and diverse talent across the organization.
We continued to heavily invest in recruiting top talent, which
resulted in high acceptance rates for experienced hires(85%) and campus hires (74%). We also increased firmwide
female hires to 49% in 2022 compared with 48% in 2021.
Firmwide hires of historically underrepresented minority
professionals increased to 40% in 2022 compared with 33%
in 2021. Overall, FTI Consulting’s total global headcountincreased 13% from 6,780 in 2021 to 7,635 in 2022.

Recognizing the importance of integrating new hires into
our organization quickly and seamlessly — especially in a
hybrid environment — FTI Consulting continued to offer
and improve upon our global virtual onboarding processes,
which empower new hires to quickly get up to speed bycompleting training sessions and onboarding tasks thatprovide a holistic view of the company, regardless ofsegment or region. Key onboarding programs include aweekly orientation program in the Americas and EMEA
for all levels, as well as global Senior Managing Director

CASE STUDYEXPANDING FREE ACCESS TO COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION ACROSS EMEASITUATIONOUR ROLE

Code.org is an education innovation nonprofit
dedicated to providing all students with theopportunity to learn computer science for freeas part of their core K-12 education, helping
to close the computer science skills gap. While
Code.org has become a well-recognized resource
for computer science education in schools
across North America, its brand did not have theresources or organizational support globally tohave the same impact in other parts of the world.
Seeing an opportunity to scale its influence
globally, Code.org began a partnership with FTIConsulting’s Dubai-based professionals to help
bring its curriculum to countries across EMEA.

Working in a series of phases over the next five years,
FTI Consulting has been supporting Code.org on a pro
bono basis to help expand the organization’s global
influence. First, the team sought to understand andoutline the organization’s key objectives and operatingplan to develop content resources and countryspecific plans for implementing Code.org’s curriculum.
After the discovery phase, the team recommended
countries across EMEA that could largely benefit
from the curriculum, specifically focusing on the
Middle East and Africa. To ensure sustainable
implementation of Code.org into a given country, theteam also worked alongside Code.org, the Ministry of
Education, the Ministry of Communications and otherconcerned ministries to create comprehensive rollout
proposals for each country, which would incorporate
government agencies, development banks andlocal corporations.

OUR IMPACTFTI Consulting contributed more than 250 hours to the Code.org expansion project in 2022. In thefirst year, FTI Consulting garnered interest from over 20 countries and issued 15 Memorandumof Understandings to various government agencies and private companies. This includes the formal
launching of Code.org in the UAE. In the future, FTI Consulting will continue supporting the organization
with content creation and project management of the EMEA expansion, as well as program execution
support. This support includes hosting awareness events, trainings and development for educators, andprogram implementation within schools.

“The long-term collaboration with Code.org is a project of special relevance for ourfirm. Striving to give every child around the world an opportunity to learn coding
and computer science is a very ambitious goal, but the impact it will have in today’s
disadvantaged regions and communities will be colossal in terms of its ability todevelop critical skills at an early age and provide access to the increasingly highly
skilled world of work. At FTI Consulting, we are fully committed to this effort.”

CASE STUDYABERCROMBIE & FITCH: REFRESHING THE ESG
STRATEGY FOR A LEADING RETAILERSITUATION
Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (“A&F”) is a global,
omnichannel specialty retailer of appareland accessories for men, women and kids
through five brands: Abercrombie & Fitch,
abercrombie kids, Hollister, Gilly Hicks andSocial Tourist. Amid an increased focus onsocial and environmental practices andperformance in the retail industry, thecompany sought to refresh its broader ESG
strategy.

OUR ROLE
A&F engaged FTI Consulting to advise on
its broader sustainability strategy and ESG
program development.
As part of this mandate, FTI Consulting’s
ESG Advisory team supported A&F’s
sustainability efforts through completing a
multistakeholder materiality assessment,
updating ESG goals and targets, prioritizing
sustainability disclosures and frameworkalignment, and leveraging its proprietary ESG
ratings assessment tool.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

Following the company’s MSCI ESG rating improvement from “B” to“BBB” during the two previous rating cycles, FTI Consulting helped
A&F conduct its first materiality assessment to identify priority ESG
initiatives based on importance to key stakeholders and the assessed
impact to the company’s financial and sustainability performance.
Following completion of the materiality assessment, FTI Consulting
and A&F assessed available data and associated baselines, identified
actionable ways to quickly and effectively enact change, and ultimately
set credible and meaningful organization-wide ESG goals.

OUR IMPACTFTI Consulting’s engagement resulted in setting more than
25 goals with corresponding baselines, target metrics anddates, bolstering A&F’s focus on high-impact performance
improvement initiatives that can benefit both sustainabilityrelated performance and the company’s bottom line. Leading
up to the ESG goal-setting process, FTI Consulting engaged
with external and internal stakeholders of A&F during themateriality assessment and recorded approximately 1,000
direct stakeholder data points for consideration — a criticalprecursor to facilitating cross-organization strategy sessions
and finalizing the company’s updated ESG goals.

Consisting of four distinct and complementary pillars, FTI Consulting’s DI&B Strategy represents a multipronged
approach focused on attracting, developing and retaining diverse talent and providing an equal opportunity hiring
environment. Each pillar is designed to be amplified with a designated goal, multiple firm-based commitments andtactical applications to provide for accountability and implementation. This includes programs and strategies aimed athiring, retaining and developing top female talent and talent from historically underrepresented minority populations,
helping us to build a pipeline of diverse leaders across FTI Consulting.
Over the last several years, FTI Consulting has made significant investments to expand DI&B initiatives globally and tohelp create an environment where our employees feel heard, valued and supported.

THE PACT FOR FTI CONSULTING

In 2019, in support of equity in the workplace, FTI
Consulting agreed to a pact, holding ourselves accountable
to three key commitments:— Leadership & Culture: No member of FTI Consulting’s Executive Committee
will appear on a panel at a public event that does not have diverse
representation.
— Equity & Retention: We conduct an annual audit of pay, promotions andperformance ratings across gender and race.
— Hiring & Recruiting: We strive to increase the pool of qualified female anddiverse candidates by 5% by 2023 and extend an offer to at least the same or
higher percentage of female and diverse candidates.

INTRODUCTION | ENVIRONMENT | SOCIAL | GOVERNANCE | APPENDIXPay Equity and Pay Gap

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EQUAL PAY & PAY GAPAs an extension of the Pact for FTI Consulting, our values and our commitment to our goals to promote
equity across the firm, FTI Consulting conducts and releases global gender and ethnicity pay gap
analyses annually.
We remain focused on our efforts to provide our people equal pay for doing the same or similar work,
regardless of gender or ethnicity. In 2022, our annual review indicated that we continued to achieve pay
equality. Through our programs and policies, we support fairness in how we approach pay and rewards
for our people.

EQUAL PAYPAY GAP

Employees are paid the same amountfor the same or similar work, regardlessof gender or ethnicity

The difference in the average pay
between gender or ethnicity in an
organization over a period of time

We are focused on transparency and accountability through an annual examination of our global pay gap
data. Our 2022 global gender and ethnicity pay gap analyses demonstrate modest changes since 2021.
While we continue to focus on recruiting diverse talent, we must retain that talent as those individuals
continue to grow at FTI Consulting.

GENDER

Unlike equal pay, a pay gap is the difference in average pay between gender or ethnicity in an organization
over a period of time. FTI Consulting calculates our global pay gap using employee total compensation(base plus bonus) from the most recent performance year. We then compare the average male and female
employee pay, as well as the average represented and historically underrepresented minority employee
pay.
An analysis of our pay and bonus gaps tells us that the gender and ethnicity imbalances are due to:— Having fewer women and historically underrepresented minorities in senior-level, higher paying roles.
— Having more women and historically underrepresented minorities in junior-level, lower paying roles.

CASE STUDYPREPARING THE NEXT GENERATION OF EXPERTS THROUGH SKILLS-BASED VOLUNTEERINGSITUATION
For young people across the globe, mentoring provides meaningful connections thathave a profound impact on their education, career trajectory and their life at home.
According to research from the National Mentoring Partnership, one in three young
people will grow up without a mentor.1

OUR ROLE
Throughout FTI Consulting’s global network, we are proud of the ways our professionals
supported skills-based volunteering opportunities to help develop the next generation ofexperts:— Our London office transformed our virtual Work Experience Program into an in-person
program. Over two weeks, 28 secondary school and university students from fourcharities shadowed FTI Consulting professionals while they shared insights about theirown career path, included students in team meetings and guided them in segmentspecific projects.
— In North America, we developed partnerships to support low-income and firstgeneration college students. With Braven, a nonprofit working to increase strong firstjob attainment, colleagues facilitated mock interviews with the organization’s Fellows
to empower tomorrow’s professional workforce.
— In our Sydney office, together with the Australian Business and Community Network(“ABCN”), a nonprofit empowering students to reach their potential, regardless ofsocioeconomic background, we hosted more than a dozen high school students
for a mentoring session on ways to impress in an interview. Eight FTI Consulting
professionals acted as mentors and helped the students build confidence in their skills
through sessions on body language, communication styles and mock interviews.
1— To develop skills outside the classroom, our professionals createda financial literacy program with eight modules on budgets, credit
cards, credit scores, careers in finance and more. In 2022, we delivered
this curriculum to low-income and first-generation students at
Northeastern University.
— Our partnership with 100 Black Men in America, the nation’s top
African American-led mentoring organization committed to enhancing
educational and economic opportunities for all African Americans,continued in 2022 with colleagues maintaining their mentoring
relationships.
— Professionals found new opportunities to volunteer for organizations
like DECA Inc., a U.S.-based nonprofit preparing emerging leaders andentrepreneurs to be college and career ready, by judging competitive
events on project management, entrepreneurship and consulting at
career development conferences.

OUR IMPACT“The ABCN mentoring program focusedon ways to impress during interviews
and provided a ‘helping hand’ forstudents to unlock their potential. It
allowed me to share my experiences,both good and bad, and advice. Basedon feedback, the students found theprogram to be invaluable as they gained
confidence about the interview process
and self-belief in what they could offer
to potential employers. They were better
positioned to bring their ‘best self’ to

CASE STUDY

BULIDING GREATER AWARENESS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE CASES IN HONG KONG
THROUGH CENTRALIZED DATASITUATION
While several Hong Kong government agencies and NGOs collect data relevant to childsexual abuse, the information is inconsistent across the organizations, and no centralized
location consolidates the information for analysis.1 TALK Hong Kong (“TALK”), a peer-led
organization tackling child sexual abuse in Hong Kong, wanted to better understand theprevalence of child sexual abuse. Through a personal connection with Taura Edgar, theDirector and Founder of TALK, a team of experts from FTI Consulting worked alongside
the organization in a pro bono capacity to help establish TALK as a centralized resource
for information about child sexual abuse in Hong Kong.

OUR ROLE
Working closely with TALK, FTI Consulting professionals sourced and analyzed datafrom various government departments and bureaus, NGOs and academic resources
to understand the availability, nature and consistency of data available across theorganizations. The team created an interactive, visual dashboard housed on TALK’s websitethat highlights the data, trends and results of the analyses, as well as gaps in tracked data
maintained by groups such as the local police and Hong Kong Department of Justice.

1

OUR IMPACT
The FTI Consulting professionals dedicated nearly
200 hours of pro bono time to support TALK’s
mission. The future quality of reporting was improvedby highlighting inconsistencies in the data. The data
gathered were also leveraged in an inaugural reporton the scale and nature of child sexual abuse in HongKong. Following these efforts, TALK is using the reportto spark conversations and raise awareness on theissue with the general public.

“One of TALK Hong Kong’s missions isprevention of child sexual abuse, a
topic that is deeply personal to me.
Professionally, I have spent years
advising clients on fraud prevention,
work which sometimes uses similarcapabilities that FTI Consulting
leveraged in our work for TALK HongKong. It has been a truly rewarding
experience for me to be supported

CASE STUDYGETTING ACTIVE FOR A CAUSESITUATION
In 2022, FTI Consulting professionals across the globe combined their enthusiasm forgood health and well-being with giving back to the communities in which we do business.
From running 5k races around the globe to participating in local office fitness events, ourprofessionals stayed active throughout the year to support the causes that mean the mostto them.

OUR ROLE AND OUR IMPACT:— In Australia, colleagues completed the Chain Reaction Sydney Challenge, a sevenday, 1,000km course through Tasmania. The team raised more than AUD250,000
for children’s charities So They Can and BaptistCare Hopestreet since the first year ofparticipation in 2022.
— In London, colleagues took part in the Thames Path Challenge, a 50km walk along theRiver Thames, raising more than GBP3,600 for London’s social mobility charity, The
Talent Tap. Since our partnership with The Talent Tap began in 2021, our professionals
have raised approximately GBP80,000 for the cause.

— For the sixth year in a row, our professionals participated in
STEPtember to support the Cerebral Palsy Alliance Research
Foundation and its global partners by committing to 10,000 steps
a day in the month of September while fundraising for the cause. In
2022, a record 700+ professionals participated across the globe, taking
more than 120 million steps and raising over $55,000 in total. Through
STEPtember, FTI Consulting has raised more than $255,000 for
cerebral palsy research since 2017.

“The Thames Path Challenge wasa personal test of my physical andmental strength, but the support of
my FTI Consulting colleagues enabled
me to complete the challenge.
Supporting The Talent Tap and social
mobility across the UK motivated me
throughout the challenge as helping
young people is more crucial to me
than ever right now.”SELVAKUMAR SIVANAND

Volunteering
FTI Consulting empowers and encourages our employees to make a positive impact incommunities by getting involved with the causes that are important to them. We provide
our professionals with eight hours of company-sponsored volunteer time, whereby
employees can take the day to contribute their time and efforts to a local charity or
cause.
In 2022, as restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic eased, professionals returned to theoffice, and the number and scale of in-person volunteer events around the firm increased.
Many of our global offices have Corporate Citizenship Champions, who are responsible
for enhancing leadership efforts and driving engagement in our Corporate Citizenshipinitiatives at a local level. The efforts and energy of our Champions are key contributors
to the growth of in-person events. In 2022, our team of global Corporate CitizenshipChampions grew to over 160 employees, and our professionals volunteered morethan 6,700 hours, which is a 24% increase compared with 2021.

Employee Matching Gift Program
FTI Consulting’s Matching Gift Program amplifies the impact of our employees’ personal
charitable contributions. Each year, the company matches employee donations of up to$500, or local currency equivalent, to eligible nonprofit organizations, which are assessedand selected in part by their alignment with our values and corporate sustainability
strategy. Through our global Corporate Citizenship Portal, employees can discovercauses, submit their donation information, request a corporate match, nominate new
charities for match eligibility and participate in peer-to-peer fundraising. This flexible
approach allows employees to participate in the program while enabling them to support
the causes that mean the most to them. In 2022, FTI Consulting colleagues raised money
to support causes and institutions focused on education, mental health awareness, rare
cancer research and more.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

“It was fantastic to see how many FTI Consulting
colleagues mobilized to use their company-sponsoredvolunteer time or charitable gift matching to support
refugees from Ukraine. From caring for refugees at
a social welfare office in Berlin to raising more than

shelter and medical aid for displaced families, thank you
to everyone who contributed.”

CASE STUDYPROVIDING REVENUE PROJECTIONS FOR VOLTALIS’ INVESTMENT IN SMART ELECTRICITY DEVICESSITUATION
Voltalis is a European provider of intelligent electricity services – in particular, demand
response, which is the postponement or reduction of electricity consumption at times ofhigh prices and power system stress. During the last few years, Voltalis entered into several
partnerships with French authorities to equip homes with devices for smart electricity
consumption management. This allows households to better monitor and control theirconsumption, thereby enabling them to make important energy savings while at the sametime contributing to the green transition.

OUR ROLE
Voltalis’ devices provide a solution to link flexible consumption with the power system. The
underlying demand response technology allows companies to react in an optimal manner tofluctuations in energy demand rather than matching the increasing energy demand throughan equivalent increase in production capacity.
A Compass Lexecon team, including Executive Vice President Fabien Roques, Vice President
Yves Le Thieis and Economist Pierre-Emmanuel Peslier, advised Voltalis on the market
value of its investment. They provided French power market analysis and modeling of thepotential revenues of Voltalis to the different transaction stakeholders, including investors.
More specifically, using an in-house, Pan-European hourly power dispatch model, theteam made demand response revenue projections under a range of scenarios. The model
calculated the reduction in French electricity prices when demand response is activated,
as well as other benefits, including reduced spikes in wholesale prices and avoidance ofelectricity generation with carbon-intensive technologies.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

OUR IMPACT
Compass Lexecon’s analysis and modeling provided
key insights both to investors and to policymakers
about the potential benefits of demand response. By
analyzing the potential revenues and risks in different
scenarios, the analysis informed investors. Furthermore,by modeling the wider economic and environmental
effects of demand response, the study contributed
to informing the policy debate on the benefits ofdemand response.

“Our energy team has a vast amount ofexperience in using our Pan-European
hourly power market model to assess
the potential revenues of different typesof assets and the costs and benefits
for the energy system. In particular, ourmodeling has been used in many studies
such as the one for Voltalis to inform
policymakers and investors about thewider socioeconomic and environmental
impact of different investment decisions.”

CASE STUDYINVESTIGATING AN UNINTENTIONAL DATA DISCLOSURE FOR A LARGE U.S. MUNICIPALITYSITUATION
A large U.S. municipality launched a data visualization dashboard that publishedcriminal justice data, which was intended to improve transparency. Due toimproper security configurations, the public was able to download the full
data set for a day, which included the confidential personal data of more than
190,000 individuals. FTI Consulting was engaged by outside counsel to conduct
an independent review of the disclosure and communicate the situation to
impacted stakeholders.

OUR ROLEFTI Consulting’s Cybersecurity, Data & Analytics and Technology teams assisted in
conducting a forensic investigation into the disclosure. Our experts virtually recreatedthe dashboard servers to determine what data the public could obtain, analyzed
logs to quantify how many downloads had occurred, conducted cross-correlation
analysis of the available data sets and interviewed staff to understand the incident.
The team provided the municipality and the public with an overview of what led to theunintentional data breach.

FTI Consulting, Inc.

OUR IMPACTFTI Consulting determined that insufficientinternal reviews and a lack of cybersecurity andtechnical training had led to failures. The teamoutlined recommendations for strengthening
the municipality’s cybersecurity and incident
response, which included enhancing training anddeveloping a detailed data incident plan with clear
protocols and responsibilities. The municipalitycommitted to implementing all recommendations
from FTI Consulting.

CASE STUDYFTI CONSULTING COLLEAGUES COLLECT AND
DISTRIBUTE SCHOOL SUPPLIES FOR CHILDREN IN NEEDSITUATION
In advance of the 2022-2023 academic year, Angela Galloway, a
Director based in Miami, identified an opportunity to support anorganization where she regularly volunteers called The Caring
Place, a nonprofit that has been serving people of South Florida
experiencing homelessness for more than 100 years.

OUR IMPACT
With the help of our professionals, more than 45 volunteers distributed
backpacks filled with school supplies, sneakers, socks, T-shirts, hygiene
items and food boxes to over 1,000 children and their families.

OUR ROLE
With the generous support of our colleagues, FTI Consulting’s
Miami office collected school supplies and monetary donations
for children in the community. As the first year that schools wereopen to all students since the COVID-19 pandemic began, there
was a greater need for school supplies:— Our Miami professionals launched a fundraiser and donation
drive with their colleagues and networks, raising more than
$2,000 and collecting 100 school supply items such as backpacks,
binders and paper.
— FTI Consulting also donated lightly used items, including
200 monitors, 100 flash drives, 200 computer mice and 200
keyboards.

“It was our goal to put a boost of confidence in the steps ofhundreds of children to help set them up for success in thefirst in-person academic year since the COVID-19 pandemic
began. I am grateful for the acts of kindness, compassion
and generosity demonstrated by my FTI Consulting
colleagues to make an impact in our community.”
ANGELA GALLOWAY
Director, Miami— Our professionals joined hundreds of others at a local
community center to distribute the supplies.

Scope 1 emissions are the result of GHGs emitted at FTI Consulting office locations, either from directly burning fossil fuels or on-site vehicles.
Scope 2 emissions are the result of the energy that FTI Consulting purchases but is generated elsewhere, such as electricity.
Scope 3 emissions are indirect emissions from sources that are not owned or operated by FTI Consulting but are related to business activities, such as employee business travel. This category includes emissions associated with business travel only (air, car, rail, hotel) as per travel agency data. 						

3HFCs, or refrigerant gas losses associated with office operations, are not included in FTI Consulting’s publicly reported 2022 emissions Scope 1 inventory. We are currently evaluating if HFCs are relevant to our business operations and our operational boundary. If so, we will revisit our Scope 1 emissions inventory and targets.

The market-based method calculates Scope 2 emissions on the basis of electricity purchased, which allows FTI Consulting to report on green energy purchases as well.					

5This category includes emissions associated with business travel only (air, car, rail, hotel) as per travel agency data. Scope 3 emissions for category 6 are calculated using the VDR standard methodology, developed by the German Business Travel Association and consistent with the GHG Protocol.

2019-2022 Reconciliations of Employees, Excluding Independent Contractors to
Employees, Including Independent Contractors
Given FTI Consulting’s contractors both work from our officelocations and travel for business purposes, FTI Consulting’s
Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions from business travel reduction
targets are based on an intensity metric of per employee,
including contractors, as of December 31 of each calendar year.
We believe this methodology provides a more accurate accountof the emissions from individuals providing services to clientson behalf of the firm.
As historical emissions per employee was based on
total employees as of December 31 of each year per FTI
Consulting’s Form 10-K, the following reconciliation tableprovides both employees, excluding independent contractors
to employees, including independent contractor for 2019,2020, 2021 and 2022.
