Andrew Nicholas’s rating is based on the belief that despite current challenges, FTI Consulting has a strong foundation for long-term growth. The company has faced some setbacks, including a miss on its fourth-quarter earnings and lower-than-expected guidance for 2025, largely due to senior-level departures and low utilization in some sectors. However, Nicholas views these issues as temporary hurdles rather than permanent setbacks.
FTI Consulting’s business model is considered robust, with a consistent track record of adjusted EPS growth over the past decade. The company is poised to benefit from future growth opportunities, particularly from increased hiring activities. Furthermore, its stock is currently trading at an attractive valuation compared to historical averages. Despite near-term uncertainties, Nicholas believes the overall structural growth prospects for FTI remain strong, warranting a Buy rating.
According to TipRanks, Nicholas is ranked #5372 out of 9369 analysts.
In another report released yesterday, Truist Financial also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $225.00 price target.
