Key Terms

form 3, form 4, 8-k, 10-q, +4 more

8 terms

form 3 regulatory

"filed an initial statement of beneficial ownership. The Form 3 reports that Rabl"

Form 3 is the initial public filing that officers, directors and large shareholders must submit to report their ownership of a company’s securities when they become insiders. It acts like an opening inventory sheet that gives investors a starting point to see who holds significant stakes and to spot later trades or potential conflicts of interest, helping assess insider confidence and transparency.

form 4 regulatory

"reported an equity award to its General Counsel, Curtis Pey-lin Lu. On 12/19/2025, he received 11,328"

Form 4 is a official document that company insiders, such as executives or major shareholders, file with regulators whenever they buy or sell company shares. It provides transparency about how those with inside knowledge are trading, helping investors see if insiders are confident in the company's prospects or may be selling for personal reasons. This information can influence investor decisions by revealing insiders' perspectives on the company's value.

8-k regulatory

"title": "[8-K] FTI CONSULTING, INC Reports Material Event""

An 8-K is a public report companies must file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to disclose major events or changes that shareholders should know about, such as leadership changes, mergers, financial surprises, or legal developments. It matters to investors because it acts like a breaking-news alert for a company’s health and prospects—providing timely facts that can affect stock value and investment decisions.

View in glossary

10-q regulatory

"title": "[10-Q] FTI CONSULTING, INC Quarterly Earnings Report""

A 10-Q is a company’s required quarterly filing with U.S. regulators that provides updated financial statements, management discussion of results, and disclosures about risks, legal matters and operational changes. Think of it as a quarterly report card and progress update that lets investors track recent performance, spot trends or warning signs between annual reports, and make informed buy/sell decisions based on the latest verified financial and business information.

restricted stock financial

"received 11,328 shares of common stock as a restricted stock award at a stated price"

Shares granted to an individual that carry limits on transfer or sale until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them as a locked gift that gradually opens; for investors they matter because they affect how many shares may enter the market later, signal management incentives and potential dilution, and reveal confidence in future company performance.

adjusted ebitda financial

"Adjusted EBITDA was $130.6 million with a 13.7% margin."

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

adjusted eps financial

"include definitions and reconciliations for non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, and Free Cash Flow."

Adjusted earnings per share (adjusted eps) is a measure of a company's profit per share that has been modified to exclude certain one-time or unusual items, such as costs from restructuring or asset sales. It provides a clearer picture of the company’s core performance by removing events that may distort the usual earnings. Investors use adjusted eps to better understand a company's ongoing profitability and compare it more accurately over time.

free cash flow financial

"Operating cash flow for the quarter was $201.9 million, yielding Free Cash Flow of $187.0 million."

Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
