Material Agreement, Financial Obligation (Form 8-K)

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 17, 2026, FTI Consulting, Inc. ("FTI Consulting" or the "Company"), entered into an Incremental Amendment (the "Incremental Amendment") to its existing Credit Agreement (as defined below). The Incremental Amendment was by and among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company party thereto as guarantors, the lenders party thereto (the "2026 Incremental Term Lenders"), and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the 2026 Incremental Term Lenders (the "Administrative Agent"). Terms not defined in this Item 1.01 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

The Incremental Amendment modifies the Company's Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2022 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including by the Incremental Amendment, the "Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the lenders party thereto, the guarantors party thereto, and the Administrative Agent, to provide for a term loan in the aggregate amount of $300 million (the "Incremental Term Loan") on the date of the Incremental Amendment. The proceeds from the Incremental Term Loan may be used for general corporate purposes.

The Incremental Term Loan bears interest, at the Company's option, at either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%) or the "base rate," in each case, plus an applicable margin based on the Company's consolidated total net leverage ratio, as described in the Credit Agreement.

The Incremental Term Loan matures on March 17, 2029, and requires the Company to pay customary fees and expenses. All other terms of the Incremental Term Loan are as set forth in the Incremental Amendment or the Credit Agreement.

The Incremental Amendment contains customary representations and warranties. All other material terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement were unchanged.

The foregoing summary of the Incremental Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Incremental Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as applicable, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and as Exhibit 10.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 22, 2022, respectively, and are hereby incorporated by reference herein.
