10 Corporate Finance Who we are The Corporate Finance practice of FTI Consulting provides complete support in turnaround and restructuring, transaction advisory services and corporate recovery. The practice has a reputation for taking on challenging and complex assignments that require exceptional strategic and technical capabilities. Our regional and international coverage, combined with the depth of our specialist team and results-focused approach, means we are uniquely placed to meet our clients needs. What we do TURNAROUND AND RESTRUCTURING We offer an integrated range of services to help clients analyse, negotiate, restructure and turnaround businesses that are experiencing liquidity constraints. TRANSACTION ADVISORY SERVICES We deliver financial, operational, transactional and advisory support to clients across the investment life cycle. This includes conducting due diligence, valuations, post-acquisition integration, health checks, performance improvement, interim management and board roles, and providing sell-side advisory services. CORPORATE RECOVERY Our focus is on saving businesses. We manage all types of formal insolvency administrations. We recognise that stakeholder needs are paramount when dealing with insolvent companies and aim to utilise our experience, skills and contacts to maximise financial outcomes. Examples of our work Founded in 1979 and based in San Antonio, Texas, the independent oil and gas enterprise TXCO Resources (TXCO) engaged in the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties. By the end of 2008, TXCO had estimated net proved reserves of 81.7 billion cubic feet of gas equivalent. Volatile energy prices and the tight credit markets due to the economic slowdown adversely affected the company s ability to raise debt and equity capital. Additionally, the company s development commitments and capital budget requirements caused a liquidity shortage, making it difficult for TXCO to honor its financial obligations. On May 17, 2009, the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, seeking debtor-in-possession financing of up to $32 million. TXCO retained FTI Consulting in 2009 as chief restructuring officer and financial advisor to provide assistance with strategic alternatives, interim financing, cash management, creditor negotiations, advisory services and execution of all reporting requirements. The outcome was a single asset sale of approximately 90 percent of TXCO s assets, resulting in a 100 percent recovery of debt owed to all secured and unsecured lenders. 8 FTI Consulting, Inc.

How do you value a laptop manufacturer? What is the effect of changing prices on revenues? How do you value the losses from Derivatives contracts? Examples of our work Calculating losses FROM BUSINESS DISRUPTION FTI Consulting was hired by an aluminium producer to assist in calculating the losses suffered as a result of damage to the transportation route used by the company. The company incurred losses as it was not able to produce as much aluminium as it would otherwise have done due to problems in the supply of raw materials. The company also incurred increased costs as it attempted to mitigate the effects of the disruption. We assessed the lost profit resulting from the loss of production and the incremental costs that the company incurred in its efforts to restore the supply of raw materials and minimise the negative impact on production. Calculating The Financial impact of unfair gas contracts FTI Consulting was engaged by a major gas company which had entered into arbitration with their supplier of gas, alleging that the contract price for gas was unfair as a result of the reduction in the open market spot price. We produced a report detailing their loss as a result of being held to that contract. a discounted cash flow model was produced to allow a comparison of the actual situation with the counterfactual to estimate losses. We also included an overview of gas markets in Europe involving the collection of data on gas markets in Europe and comparing the way gas is bought and sold. 10 FTI Consulting, Inc.

15 Our People Joanna ng senior consultant, forensic accounting and advisory services, hong kong When I finished university, I knew I wanted to be an accountant. But the accounting profession was so broad and diverse it was hard to figure out what I wanted to do. It wasn t until I joined FTI Consulting four years ago that I found my calling. I always found something fascinating about all the information that could be found by looking at numbers and it was by joining the Forensic and Litigation Consulting team that I was able to build on this fascination and use numbers to solve problems (and crime). I have worked on a huge variety of projects including valuation of a large US real-estate group in matrimonial proceedings, undertook a financial health check of a commercial property in Perth and assisted in the quantification of losses as a result of alleged breaches of financial warranties. I have worked with lawyers, counsel, directors of listed firms and cross-segment teams within FTI.
