FTI Consulting’s Q2 2026 revenue held steady but earnings missed estimates due to rising costs and antitrust consulting pressures.
FTI Consulting (FCN) shares fell after its Q1 2026 earnings disappointed, with EPS trailing analyst expectations despite stable revenue. Rising SG&A expenses and a loss of market share in U.S. antitrust consulting weighed on performance, with management warning recovery may take multiple quarters.
The company’s Economic Consulting segment faced headwinds, though the board approved an additional $307 million for share repurchases and reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance. FCN closed at $152.68 on August 12, 2026, down 9.98% over the past year.
Investors are reassessing the firm’s outlook as cost pressures persist and antitrust consulting demand weakens.
