UMB Financial Corp. (UMBFP) 鈥� Form 144 filing: Charitable trusts affiliated with the Kemper family have filed a notice to sell up to 2,550 common shares through Capital Institutional Services on or after 1 Aug 2025. Based on the reported 75.9 million shares outstanding, the proposed sale equals roughly 0.003 % of the float and carries an estimated market value of $282.5 k.
The same trusts and related entities disclosed 11 sales during the past three months totaling 18,540 shares for gross proceeds of about $1.8 million. All stock was originally acquired via a 2008 gift of 708,554 shares from R.C. Kemper Jr. The filing states that the sellers affirm no undisclosed material adverse information and are not relying on a pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan.
Implications: Form 144 only signals the intent to sell; execution is not guaranteed. The volume is immaterial relative to UMB鈥檚 market capitalization and average trading volume, suggesting limited share-price impact. However, continued selling by insider-controlled trusts can be interpreted as mildly negative sentiment.
UMB Financial Corp. (UMBFP) 鈥� Comunicazione Form 144: Trust di beneficenza collegati alla famiglia Kemper hanno presentato una notifica per vendere fino a 2.550 azioni ordinarie tramite Capital Institutional Services a partire dal 1 agosto 2025. Considerando le 75,9 milioni di azioni in circolazione, la vendita proposta rappresenta circa lo 0,003% del flottante con un valore di mercato stimato di 282,5 mila dollari.
Gli stessi trust e entit脿 correlate hanno dichiarato 11 vendite negli ultimi tre mesi per un totale di 18.540 azioni, con ricavi lordi di circa 1,8 milioni di dollari. Tutte le azioni erano state originariamente acquisite tramite una donazione nel 2008 di 708.554 azioni da R.C. Kemper Jr. La comunicazione afferma che i venditori confermano l'assenza di informazioni materiali sfavorevoli non divulgate e non si basano su un piano predefinito 10b5-1.
Implicazioni: Il Form 144 segnala solo l'intenzione di vendere; l'esecuzione non 猫 garantita. Il volume 猫 irrilevante rispetto alla capitalizzazione di mercato e al volume medio di scambi di UMB, suggerendo un impatto limitato sul prezzo delle azioni. Tuttavia, vendite continue da parte di trust controllati da insider possono essere interpretate come un segnale di sentiment leggermente negativo.

Das Volumen ist im Verh盲ltnis zur Marktkapitalisierung und zum durchschnittlichen Handelsvolumen von UMB unerheblich, was auf eine begrenzte Auswirkung auf den Aktienkurs hindeutet. Dennoch kann ein fortgesetzter Verkauf durch insiderkontrollierte Stiftungen als leicht negative Stimmung interpretiert werden.

Insights
TL;DR 鈥� Small insider sale; not likely market-moving.
Under Rule 144, Kemper-related charitable trusts plan to dispose of 2,550 UMB shares, adding to 18,540 shares sold in the prior quarter. This represents less than 0.03 % of quarterly volume and 0.02 % of insider holdings, so liquidity impact is negligible. Insider selling by trusts often reflects diversification or funding needs rather than operational outlook. I view the event as neutral; any negative signal is muted by de-minimis size.

Goodwill
The table below sets forth the changes in the carrying value of goodwill by reportable segment for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

(1) See Note 4 "Acquisitions" for additional information on business combinations completed in 2025. Of the $60.0 million of goodwill recorded in the first six months of 2025, $53.8 million related to the acquisition of Eclipse Insights within our Healthcare segment. Goodwill is recognized for the excess of purchase price over the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and largely reflects the expanded market opportunities expected from combining the service offerings of Huron and Eclipse Insights, as well as the assembled workforce of Eclipse Insights. All of the $53.8 million of goodwill is expected to be tax deductible.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 consisted of the following:
| As of June 30, 2025 | As of December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Customer contracts | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Non-competition agreements | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Total | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we acquired intangible assets of $30.2 million related to our business combinations completed in 2025. Of the $30.2 million of intangible assets acquired, $26.9 million relates to our acquisition of Eclipse Insights and includes $24.8 million for customer relationships and $2.1 million for technology and software. The acquired customer relationships and technology and software intangible assets have an initial estimated useful life of 10 years and 5 years, respectively.
Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using either an accelerated or straight-line basis to correspond to the cash flows expected to be derived from the assets. Intangible asset amortization expense was $2.3 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively; and $4.3 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Actual future amortization expense could differ from these estimated amounts as a result of future acquisitions, dispositions, and other factors.
6. Revenues
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized total revenues of $411.8 million and $381.0 million, respectively. Of the $411.8 million total revenues recognized in the second quarter of 2025, we recognized $12.8 million from obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied, in prior periods, of which $11.6 million was primarily due to changes in the estimates of our variable consideration under performance-based billing arrangements and $1.2 million was primarily due to the release of allowances on receivables from clients and unbilled services. Of the $381.0 million total revenues recognized in the second quarter of 2024, we recognized $18.2 million from obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied, in prior periods, of which $13.2 million was primarily due to changes in the estimates of our variable consideration under performance-based billing arrangements and $5.0 million was primarily due to the release of allowances on receivables from clients and unbilled services.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized total revenues of $815.9 million and $744.4 million, respectively. Of the $815.9 million total revenues recognized in the first six months of 2025, we recognized $20.5 million from obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied in prior periods, of which $18.7 million was primarily due to changes in the estimates of our variable consideration under performance-based billing arrangements and $1.8 million was primarily due to the release of allowances on receivables from clients and unbilled services. Of the $744.4 million recognized in the first six months of 2024, we recognized revenues of $20.5 million from obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied, in prior periods, of which $17.2 million was due to changes in the estimates of our variable consideration under performance-based billing arrangements and $3.3 million was due to the release of allowances on receivables from clients and unbilled services.
As of June 30, 2025, we had $277.1 million of remaining performance obligations under engagements with original expected durations greater than one year. These remaining performance obligations exclude variable consideration which has been excluded from the total transaction price due to the constraint and performance obligations under time-and-expense engagements which are recognized in the amount invoiced. Of the $277.1 million of performance obligations, we expect to recognize $60.4 million as revenue in 2025, $89.8 million in 2026, and the remaining $126.9 million thereafter. Actual revenue recognition could differ from these amounts as a result of changes in the estimated timing of work to be performed, adjustments to estimated variable consideration in performance-based arrangements, or other factors.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
The payment terms and conditions in our customer contracts vary. Differences between the timing of billings and the recognition of revenue are recognized as either unbilled services or deferred revenues in the consolidated balance sheets.
Unbilled services include revenues recognized for services performed but not yet billed to clients. Services performed that we are not yet entitled to bill because certain events, such as the completion of the measurement period or client approval in performance-based engagements, must occur are recorded as contract assets and included within unbilled services, net. The contract asset, net balance as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $74.5 million and $60.1 million, respectively. The $14.4 million increase primarily reflects timing differences between the completion of our performance obligations and the amounts billed or billable to clients in accordance with their contractual billing terms.
Client prepayments and retainers are classified as deferred revenues and recognized over future periods in accordance with the applicable engagement agreement and our revenue recognition accounting policy. Our deferred revenues balance as of June 30, 2025 and

7. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding unvested restricted common stock. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential reduction in earnings per share that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock under the treasury stock method. Such securities or other contracts include unvested restricted stock awards, unvested restricted stock units, and outstanding common stock options, to the extent dilutive. In periods for which we report a net loss, diluted weighted average common shares outstanding excludes all potential common stock equivalents as their impact on diluted net loss per share would be anti-dilutive.
Earnings per share under the basic and diluted computations are as follows:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Net income | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||
| Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Weighted average common stock equivalents | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Net income per basic share | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||
| Net income per diluted share | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||
Less than 0.1 0.1 million shares and less than 0.1 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the computation of the weighted average common stock equivalents presented above.
Share Repurchase Program
In November 2020, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program permitting us to repurchase up to $50 million of our common stock through December 31, 2021. The share repurchase program has been subsequently extended and increased, most recently in the first quarter of 2025. The current authorization extends the share repurchase program through December 31, 2026 with a repurchase amount of $700 million. The amount and timing of repurchases under the share repurchase program were and will continue to be determined by management and depend on a variety of factors, including the trading price of our common stock, capacity under our credit facility, general market and business conditions, and applicable legal requirements.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased and retired 429,669 and 938,280 shares for $61.0 million and $133.9 million, respectively, which includes a $0.6 million and $0.7 million accrual for excise taxes on the net share repurchases, respectively. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2025, we settled the repurchase of 5,103 shares for $0.6 million which were accrued as of December 31, 2024.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased and retired 376,493 and 1,001,191 shares for $34.4 million and $96.7 million, respectively, which includes a $0.3 million and $0.4 million accrual for excise taxes on the net share repurchases, respectively. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2024, we settled the repurchase of 10,000 shares for $1.0 million which were accrued as of December 31, 2023.
As of June 30, 2025, $131.3 million remained available for share repurchases under our share repurchase program.

8. Financing Arrangements
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and a $275 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), subject to the terms of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 15, 2022 (as amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement”). In July 2025, the Company entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement”) which amended and restated, in its entirety, the Existing Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement established a $700 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Amended Revolver") and a $400 million senior secured term loan facility (the "Amended Term Loan"), both of which mature on July 30, 2030 . See “2025 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement” below for additional information.
Under the Existing Credit Agreement in effect as of June 30, 2025, the Revolver and the Term Loan would have fully matured on November 15, 2027 . The Term Loan was subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments of $3.4 million which began June 30, 2024 and would have continued through the maturity date of November 15, 2027 , at which time the outstanding principal balance and all accrued interest would be due. As of June 30, 2025, we had total borrowings outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement of $657.8 million, consisting of $400.0 million outstanding under the Revolver and $257.8 million outstanding under the Term Loan. A summary of the scheduled maturities of those borrowings as of June 30, 2025 follows:
| Scheduled Maturities of Long-Term Debt | ||||||||
| 2025 | $ | |||||||
| 2026 | $ | |||||||
| 2027 | $ | |||||||
Borrowings under the Revolver could be used for working capital, capital expenditures, share repurchases, permitted acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes. The proceeds of the Term Loan were used to reduce borrowings under the Revolver.
The Existing Credit Agreement provided the option to increase the revolving credit facility or establish additional term loan facilities in an aggregate amount up to $250 million, subject to customary conditions and the approval of any lender whose commitment would be increased, resulting in a maximum available principal amount under the Existing Credit Agreement of $1.13 billion.
Fees and interest on borrowings under the Existing Credit Agreement varied based on our Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). At our option, these borrowings would bear interest at one, three or six month Term SOFR or, in the case of the Revolver, an alternate base rate, in each case plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Revolver would fluctuate between 1.125 % per annum and 1.875 % per annum, in the case of Term SOFR borrowings, or between 0.125 % per annum and 0.875% per annum, in the case of base rate loans, based upon our Consolidated Leverage Ratio at such time. The applicable margin for the outstanding principal under the Term Loan would range between 1.625 % per annum and 2.375 % per annum based upon our Consolidated Leverage Ratio at such time. The fees and interest were subject to further adjustment based upon the Company's performance against specified key performance indicators. Based upon the performance of the Company against those key performance indicators in each Reference Year (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), certain adjustments to the otherwise applicable rates for interest, commitment fees and letter of credit fees would be made. These annual adjustments would not exceed an increase or decrease of 0.01 % in the aggregate for all key performance indicators in the case of the commitment fee rate or an increase or decrease of 0.05 % in the aggregate for all key performance indicators in the case of the Term SOFR borrowings, base rate borrowings or letter of credit fee rate.
Amounts borrowed under the Existing Credit Agreement could be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. We were required to prepay the amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement in certain circumstances, including upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). In addition, we had the right to permanently reduce or terminate the unused portion of the commitments provided under the Existing Credit Agreement at any time.
The loans and obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement are secured pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement and a Third Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. as collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company and the subsidiary guarantors grant Bank of America, N.A., for the ratable benefit of the lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement, a first-priority lien, subject to permitted liens, on substantially all of the personal property assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors, and a pledge of 100 % of the stock or other equity interests in all domestic subsidiaries and 65 % of the stock or other equity interests in each “material first-tier foreign subsidiary” (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) entitled to vote and 100 % of the stock or other equity interests in each material first-tier foreign subsidiary not entitled to vote.

The Existing Credit Agreement contained usual and customary representations and warranties; affirmative and negative covenants, which included limitations on liens, investments, additional indebtedness, and restricted payments; and two quarterly financial covenants as follows: (i) a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio (defined as the ratio of debt to consolidated EBITDA) of 3.75 to 1.00; however the maximum permitted Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have increased to 4.25 to 1.00 upon the occurrence of a Qualified Acquisition (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), and (ii) a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (defined as the ratio of consolidated EBITDA to interest) of 3.00 to 1.00. Consolidated EBITDA for purposes of the financial covenants was calculated on a continuing operations basis and included adjustments to add back non-cash goodwill impairment charges, share-based compensation costs, certain non-cash restructuring charges, pro forma historical EBITDA for businesses acquired, and other specified items in accordance with the Existing Credit Agreement. For purposes of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, total debt is on a gross basis and is not netted against our cash balances. At June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with these financial covenants with a Consolidated Leverage Ratio of 2.48 to 1.00 and a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of 9.83 to 1.00.

(1)In connection with establishing the Term Loan, we incurred $1.4 million of debt issuance costs which were recognized as a discount to the Term Loan. These debt issuance costs were amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 7.34 % over the term of the Term Loan. Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Revolver are included as a component of other non-current assets and amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the term of the Revolver.
Borrowings outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 carried a weighted average interest rate of 5.6 % and 4.7 %, respectively, including the effect of the interest rate swaps described in Note 10 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity.”
The borrowing capacity under the Revolver is reduced by any outstanding borrowings under the Revolver and outstanding letters of credit. At June 30, 2025, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $0.4 199.6 million.

In July 2025, the Company entered into the Amended Credit Agreement, which amended and restated, in its entirety, the Existing Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement established the $700 million Amended Revolver and the $400 million Amended Term Loan, both of which mature on July 30, 2030 . The Amended Term Loan is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments of $5.0 million beginning September 30, 2025 and continue through the maturity date of July 30, 2030 , at which time the outstanding principal balance and all accrued interest will be due.
The initial borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement were used to reduce current borrowings outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement, and future borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement may be used for working capital, capital expenditures, share repurchases, permitted acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes.
The Amended Credit Agreement provides the option to increase the revolving credit facility or establish additional term loan facilities in an aggregate amount up to $500 million with further increases permitted to the extent the Pro Forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) remains at or below 3.00 to 1.00 following such incremental borrowings, subject to customary conditions and the approval of any lender whose commitment would be increased. These increases result in an available principal amount of $1.6 billion under the Amended Credit Agreement, with further increases permitted.

Fees and interest on borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement will vary based on our Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). At our option, these borrowings will bear interest at one, three or six month Term SOFR or an alternate base rate, in each case plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin will fluctuate between 1.250 % per annum and 1.875 % per annum, in the case of Term SOFR borrowings, or between 0.250 % per annum and 0.875 % per annum, in the case of base rate loans, based upon our Consolidated Leverage Ratio at such time.
The loans and obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured pursuant to a Fourth Amended and Restated Security Agreement and a Fourth Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement (the “Amended Pledge Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. as collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company and the subsidiary guarantors grant Bank of America, N.A., for the ratable benefit of the lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement, a first-priority lien, subject to permitted liens, on substantially all of the personal property assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors, and a pledge of 100 % of the stock or other equity interests in all domestic subsidiaries and 65 % of the stock or other equity interests in each “material first-tier foreign subsidiary” (as defined in the Amended Pledge Agreement) entitled to vote and 100 % of the stock or other equity interests in each material first-tier foreign subsidiary not entitled to vote.
The Amended Credit Agreement maintains the same prepayment provisions, usual and customary representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants as the Existing Credit Agreement discussed above.
9. Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were $0.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively. The $0.6 million of restructuring charges recognized in the second quarter of 2025 primarily consisted of rent and related expenses, net of sublease income, for our previously vacated office spaces. The $1.9 million of restructuring charges recognized in the first six months of 2025 primarily consisted of $1.0 million of rent and related expenses, net of sublease income, for our previously vacated office spaces and a $0.7 million non-cash lease impairment charge driven by updated sublease assumptions for a previously vacated office space.
Restructuring charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were $2.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively. In the second quarter of 2024, we exited the office space previously occupied by GG+A, which resulted in a $1.4 million non-cash impairment charge on the related right-of-use operating lease asset and fixed assets of that office space. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2024, we recognized $0.6 million of restructuring expense for rent and related expenses, net of sublease income, for our previously vacated office spaces. The $4.4 million of restructuring charges recognized in the first six months of 2024 included $1.4 million related to the non-cash lease impairment charges on the right-of-use operating lease asset and fixed assets of the exited office space previously occupied by GG+A; $1.1 million of rent and related expenses, net of sublease income, for previously vacated office spaces; $1.0 million of severance-related expenses; and $0.8 million related to non-cash lease impairment charges driven by updated sublease assumptions for our previously vacated office spaces.
The table below sets forth the changes in the carrying value of our restructuring charge liability by restructuring type for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

All of the restructuring charge liability as of June 30, 2025, which primarily relates to the early termination of a contract in a prior period, is expected to be paid in the next 12 months. The employee costs and other restructuring charge liabilities are included as components of accrued payroll and related benefits and accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet, respectively.

10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity
In the normal course of business, we use forward interest rate swaps to manage the interest rate risk associated with our variable-rate borrowings under our senior secured credit facility and we use foreign exchange forward contracts to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with our operations in India and Canada. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
Cash Flow Hedges
Interest Rate Swaps: We are party to forward interest rate swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $250.0 one month Term SOFR and we pay to the counterparty a stated, fixed rate. The forward interest rate swap agreements have staggered maturities through February 28, 2030 .
As of June 30, 2025, it was anticipated that $0.2 million of the gains, net of tax, related to interest rate swaps currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into interest expense, net of interest income in our consolidated statement of operations within the next 12 months.
Indian Rupee Forward Contracts: We are party to Indian Rupee forward contracts that are scheduled to mature monthly through April 30, 2026 . As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate notional amounts of these contracts were Indian Rupee (INR) 0.64 billion, or $7.5 million, and Indian Rupee (INR) 1.40 billion, or $16.3 million, respectively, based on the exchange rates in effect as of each period end.
As of June 30, 2025, it was anticipated that less than $0.1 million of losses, net of tax, related to these foreign currency forward contracts currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings in our consolidated statement of operations within the next 12 months.
Refer to Note 12 “Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)” for additional information on our cash flow hedges.

Derivatives not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Canadian Dollar Forward Contracts: In the first quarter of 2025, we entered into an initial Canadian Dollar forward contract with a notional amount of $25.0 million that settled on March 31, 2025 . Subsequently, on March 31, 2025, we entered into a Canadian Dollar forward contract with a notional amount of $25.0 million that settled on June 30, 2025 ; and on June 30, 2025, we entered into another Canadian Dollar forward contract with a notional amount of $25.0 million that will settle on September 29, 2025 . We did not designate any of these derivatives as accounting hedging instruments. Therefore, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded to other income (expense), net in our consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of realized gains related to the settled forward contracts. We did not recognize any gain or loss related to the outstanding forward contract entered into on June 30, 2025. From time to time, we may enter into additional Canadian Dollar forward contracts to continue to establish economic hedges against our foreign exchange rate risk.
The table below sets forth additional information relating to our derivative instruments recognized on our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Certain of our assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value and requires companies to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels based on the objectivity of the inputs as follows:
Level 1 Inputs | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. | |||||||
| Level 2 Inputs | Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. | |||||||
| Level 3 Inputs | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. | |||||||

Interest rate swaps: The fair values of our interest rate swaps were derived using estimates to settle the interest rate swap agreements, which are based on the net present value of expected future cash flows on each leg of the swaps utilizing market-based inputs and a discount rate reflecting the risks involved. Refer to Note 10 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity” for additional information on our interest rate swaps.
Foreign exchange forward contracts: The fair values of our foreign exchange forward contracts were derived using estimates to settle the foreign exchange forward contracts agreements, which are based on the net present value of expected future cash flows on each contract utilizing market-based inputs, including both forward and spot prices, and a discount rate reflecting the risks involved. Refer to Note 10 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity” for additional information on our foreign exchange forward contracts.
Deferred compensation assets: We have a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) for the members of our board of directors and a select group of our employees. The deferred compensation liability is funded by the Plan assets, which consist of life insurance policies maintained within a trust. The cash surrender value of the life insurance policies approximates fair value and is based on third-party broker statements which provide the fair value of the life insurance policies' underlying investments, which are Level 2 inputs. The cash surrender value of the life insurance policies is invested primarily in mutual funds. The Plan assets are included in other non-current assets in our consolidated balance sheets. AG真人官方ized and unrealized gains (losses) from the deferred compensation assets are recorded to other income (expense), net in our consolidated statements of operations.
Convertible debt investment: Since 2014, we have invested $40.9 million in the form of 1.69 % convertible debt in Shorelight Holdings, LLC (“Shorelight”), the parent company of Shorelight, a U.S.-based company that partners with leading nonprofit universities to increase access to and retention of international students, boost institutional growth, and enhance an institution’s global footprint. The convertible notes will mature on January 17, 2027 , unless converted earlier.
To determine the appropriate accounting treatment for our investment, we performed a variable interest entity (“VIE”) analysis and concluded that Shorelight does not meet the definition of a VIE. We also reviewed the characteristics of our investment to confirm that the convertible notes are not in-substance common stock that would warrant equity method accounting. After we reviewed all of the terms of the investment,
15
Table of Contents
HURON CONSULTING GROUP INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
we concluded the appropriate accounting treatment to be that of an available-for-sale debt security. We continue to monitor the key factors of our VIE analysis and the terms of the convertible notes to ensure our accounting treatment is appropriate. We have not identified any changes to Shorelight or our investment that would change our classification of the investment as an available-for-sale debt security.
The hybrid analysis and calculation of the credit-related impairment charge utilize certain assumptions, all of which are Level 3 inputs. In the case of the hybrid analysis, these assumptions include the assumed holding period through the maturity date of January 17, 2027 ; the applicable waterfall distribution at the end of the expected holding period based on the rights and privileges of the various instruments; cash flow projections discounted at the risk-adjusted rate of 24.0 % and 23.5 % as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively; and the concluded equity volatility of 40.0 January 17, 2027 ; the applicable waterfall distribution at the end of the expected holding period based on the rights and privileges of the various instruments; the concluded equity volatility of 40.0 %; and cash flow projections discounted at the risk-adjusted rate in a range of 2.0 % to 12.1 %, with a weighted average of 8.6 % calculated using the relative present value of expected cash flows. The use of alternative estimates and assumptions could increase or decrease the estimated fair value of the investment or the calculated credit-related impairment charge, which would result in different impacts to our consolidated balance sheet and statements of operations and other comprehensive income. Actual results may differ from our estimates.
The table below sets forth the changes in the balance of the convertible debt investment for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Balance as of June 30, 2025(1) | $ | |||||||
(1) The total decrease in fair value of $29.6 million in the first six months of 2025 was driven by a decrease in the projected cash flows of Shorelight, which reflects the current federal regulatory environment in which Shorelight operates.
Since our initial investment in 2014, we recognized a total unrealized gain of $3.0 million within other comprehensive income (loss) and an $11.1 million allowance for credit losses within earnings. The $11.1 million credit-related impairment charge was recognized in the second quarter of 2025. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our cost basis was $40.9 million.
Contingent consideration for business acquisitions: In connection with certain business acquisitions, we may be required to pay post-closing consideration to the sellers if specific financial performance targets are met over a number of years as specified in the related purchase agreements. We estimate the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration using either a probability-weighted assessment of the specific financial performance targets being measured or a Monte Carlo simulation model, as appropriate. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 inputs. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of our contingent consideration are our measures of the estimated payouts based on internally generated financial projections on a probability-weighted basis and a discount rate which was in a range of 6.0 % to 6.1 % with a weighted average of 6.0 % as of June 30, 2025. The weighted average discount rate was calculated using the relative fair values of the contingent consideration liabilities as of June 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the discount rate used in the fair value measurement of our contingent consideration liability was 5.6 %. The fair value of the contingent consideration is reassessed quarterly based on assumptions used in our latest projections and input provided by practice leaders and management. Any change in the fair value estimate is recorded to other losses (gains), net in our consolidated statement of operations for that period. The carrying value is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities or deferred compensation and other liabilities, based on the expected timing of payment, in our consolidated balance sheets. The use of alternative estimates and assumptions could increase or decrease the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liability, which

would result in different impacts to our consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations. Actual results may differ from our estimates.
The table below sets forth the changes in the balance of the contingent consideration for business acquisitions for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

(1) In connection with our second quarter 2025 business combination, we recognized a $15.4 million contingent consideration liability which represents the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement, pursuant to which we may be required to pay additional consideration to the sellers if specific revenues before reimbursable expenses targets are met over a two-year term. The maximum amount of contingent consideration that may be paid is $22.0 million.
(2) All of the $15.4 million contingent consideration liability was recorded to deferred compensation and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025.
Financial assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Equity Investment
In the fourth quarter of 2019, we invested $5.0 million in a hospital-at-home company. The investment was made in the form of preferred stock. To determine the appropriate accounting treatment for our preferred stock investment, we performed a VIE analysis and concluded that the company does not meet the definition of a VIE. We also reviewed the characteristics of our investment to confirm that the preferred stock is not in-substance common stock that would warrant equity method accounting. After we reviewed all of the terms of the investment, we concluded the appropriate accounting treatment for our investment to be that of an equity security with no readily determinable fair value and we elected to apply the measurement alternative.
In the second quarter of 2025, the hospital-at-home company merged with a third-party who provides healthcare services and, as a result, our preferred stock investment was restructured as an investment in common stock and preferred stock of the consolidated entity. To determine the appropriate accounting treatment for our equity investment, we performed a VIE analysis and concluded that the company does not meet the definition of a VIE. We also reviewed the characteristics of our investment to confirm that the equity securities do not warrant equity method accounting. After we reviewed all of the terms of the equity securities, we concluded the appropriate accounting treatment for our investment to be that of equity securities with no readily determinable fair value. We elected to continue to apply the measurement alternative and will continue to do so until the investment does not qualify to be so measured.
Under the measurement alternative, the investment is carried at cost minus impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment in the same company. On a quarterly basis, we review the information available to determine whether an orderly and observable transaction for same or similar equity instruments occurred or if factors indicate that a significant decrease in value has occurred. We remeasure to the fair value of the equity securities using such identified information with changes in the fair value recorded to other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of operations. The carrying value of the equity investment is recorded in long-term investments in our consolidated balance sheets.
In the first quarter of 2025, we recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $4.2 million on our preferred stock investment based on the valuation anticipated from the hospital-at-home company's merger. Upon the completion of the merger in the second quarter of 2025, we recognized an additional $0.8 million non-cash impairment charge based on the final valuation utilized in the merger. The non-cash impairment charges were recorded to other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of operations. Since our initial investment in 2019, we have recognized cumulative unrealized losses of $31.3 million and cumulative unrealized gains of $28.6 million. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying value of our equity investment was $2.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively, with a cost basis of $5.0 million.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
The carrying value of our borrowings outstanding under our senior secured credit facility is stated at cost. Our carrying value approximates fair value, using Level 2 inputs, as the senior secured credit facility bears interest at variable rates based on current market rates as set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement. Refer to Note 8 “Financing Arrangements” for additional information on our senior secured credit facility.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Other Financial Instruments
Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair market value. The carrying values of all other financial instruments not described above reasonably approximate fair market value due to the nature of the financial instruments and the short-term maturity of these items.

13. Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, our effective tax rate was 29.9 % as we recognized income tax expense of $8.3 million on income of $27.7 million. The effective tax rate of 29.9 % was less favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.0 %, primarily due to the establishment of a valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset recorded as the result of the capital loss on our investment in a hospital-at-home company as well as certain nondeductible expense items, partially offset by a tax benefit related to non-taxable gains on our investments used to fund our deferred compensation liability.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate was 28.1 % as we recognized income tax expense of $14.6 million on income of $52.1 million. The effective tax rate of 28.1 % was less favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.1 %, primarily due to certain nondeductible expense items.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, our effective tax rate was 10.6 % as we recognized income tax expense of $5.2 million on income of $49.2 million. The effective tax rate of 10.6 % was more favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.0 %, primarily due to a discrete tax benefit for share-based compensation awards that vested during the first quarter of 2025,This favorable item was partially offset by the establishment of a valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset recorded as the result of the capital loss on our investment in a hospital-at-home company and certain nondeductible expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate was 20.3 % as we recognized income tax expense of $14.2 million on income of $69.7 million. The effective tax rate of 20.3 % was more favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.1 % primarily due to a discrete tax benefit for share-based compensation awards that vested during the first quarter of 2024 and a tax benefit related to non-taxable gains on our investments used to fund our deferred compensation liability. These favorable items were partially offset by certain nondeductible expense items.
14. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
Litigation
In the second quarter of 2024, we recognized a pre-tax $15.0 million litigation settlement gain related to a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff, which is included in other gains, net on our consolidated statement of operations.
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to any litigation or legal proceeding or subject to any claim that, in the current opinion of management, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, due to the risks and uncertainties inherent in legal proceedings, actual results could differ from current expected results.

In connection with certain business acquisitions, we may be required to pay post-closing consideration to the sellers if specific financial performance targets are met over a number of years as specified in the related purchase agreements. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the total estimated fair value of our outstanding contingent consideration liabilities was $15.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Refer to Note 11 "Fair Value of Financial Instruments" for additional information on our contingent consideration liabilities.
To the extent permitted by law, our bylaws and articles of incorporation require that we indemnify our officers and directors against judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with civil or criminal action or proceedings, as it relates to their services to us if such person acted in good faith. Although there is no limit on the amount of indemnification, we may have recourse against our insurance carrier for certain payments made.
15. Segment Information
We provide our services and products and manage our business under three reportable segments: Healthcare, Education, and Commercial, which align our business by industry.
•Healthcare
Our Healthcare segment serves acute care providers, including national and regional health systems; academic health systems; community health systems; the federal health system; and public, children’s and critical access hospitals, and non-acute care providers, including physician practices and medical groups; payors; and long-term care or post-acute providers. Our healthcare-focused services and products include financial and operational performance improvement consulting, which spans revenue cycle, business operations and care delivery transformation; digital offerings, spanning technology and analytic-related services, including enterprise health record (“EHR”), enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) and enterprise performance management (“EPM”), customer relationship management (“CRM”), data management, artificial intelligence (“AI”) and automation, and technology managed services, and a portfolio of software products; human capital management; revenue cycle managed services and outsourcing; financial advisory consulting; and strategy and innovation consulting. In June 2025, we enhanced our consulting offerings through the acquisition of Eclipse Insights, a leading provider of revenue cycle solutions.
•Education
Our Education segment serves public and private colleges and universities, research institutes, not-for-profit organizations and other education-related organizations. Our education and research-focused services and products include our digital offerings, spanning technology and analytic-related services, including student information systems, ERP and EPM, CRM, data management, AI and automation, and technology managed services and our Huron Research Suite product suite (the leading software suite designed to facilitate and improve research administration service delivery and compliance); our research-focused consulting and managed services; our strategy and operations consulting services, which span finance, accounting, operations and athletics to organization and talent strategy and student and academic strategy; and our global philanthropy consulting services, which were bolstered by the acquisitions of Grenzebach Glier and Associates (“GG+A”) in March 2024 and Advancement Resources and Halpin in March 2025.
•Commercial
Our Commercial segment is focused on serving industries and organizations facing significant disruption and regulatory change by helping them adapt to rapidly changing environments and accelerate business transformation. Our Commercial professionals work primarily with six primary buyers: the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, the chief strategy officer, the chief human resources officer, the chief operating officer, and organizational advisors, including lenders and law firms. We have a deep focus on serving organizations in the financial services, energy and utilities, industrials and manufacturing industries and the public sector while opportunistically serving commercial industries more broadly, including professional and business services, life sciences, consumer products, and retail. Our Commercial professionals use their deep industry, functional and technical expertise to deliver our digital services and software products, financial advisory (special situation advisory and corporate finance advisory) consulting services, and strategy and innovation consulting services. In December 2024, we expanded our Commercial consulting and digital services offerings through the acquisition of AXIA Consulting, Inc. (“AXIA Consulting”), a leading provider of supply chain-focused consulting and technology solutions who has deep expertise in the industrials and manufacturing and retail sectors.
Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our chief executive officer, manages the business under these three reportable segments. Our CODM uses segment operating income in the annual budgeting and quarterly forecasting process as well as on a monthly

basis for evaluating the performance of each segment and making decisions about allocating capital and other resources to each segment. Our CODM does not evaluate segments using asset information.
The table below sets forth information about our operating segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, along with the items necessary to reconcile the segment information to the totals reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We do not present financial information by geographic area because the financial results of our international operations are not significant to our consolidated financial statements.

We manage our business on the basis of revenues before reimbursable expenses, which we believe is the most accurate reflection of our services because it eliminates the effect of reimbursable expenses that we bill to our clients at cost.

COMPONENTS OF OPERATING RESULTS
Total Revenues
Revenues before Reimbursable Expenses
Revenues before reimbursable expenses are primarily generated by our employees who provide consulting and other professional services to our clients and are billable to our clients based on the number of hours worked, services provided, or achieved outcomes. We refer to these employees as our revenue-generating professionals. Revenues before reimbursable expenses are primarily driven by the number of revenue-generating professionals we employ as well as the total value, scope, and terms of the consulting contracts under which they provide services. We also engage independent contractors to supplement our revenue-generating professionals on client engagements as needed.
We generate our revenues before reimbursable expenses from providing professional services and software products under the following four types of billing arrangements: fixed-fee (including software license revenue); time-and-expense; performance-based; and software support, maintenance and subscriptions.
•Fixed-fee (including software license revenue): In fixed-fee billing arrangements, we agree to a pre-established fee in exchange for a predetermined set of professional services. We set the fees based on our estimates of the costs and timing for completing the engagements. Fixed-fee arrangements also include software licenses for our research administration and compliance software.
•Time-and-expense: Under time-and-expense billing arrangements, we invoice our clients based on the number of hours worked by our revenue-generating professionals at agreed upon rates. Time-and-expense arrangements also include speaking engagements, conferences and publications purchased by our clients.
•Performance-based: In performance-based billing arrangements, fees are tied to the attainment of contractually defined objectives. We enter into performance-based engagements in essentially two forms. First, we generally earn fees that are directly related to the savings formally acknowledged by the client as a result of adopting our recommendations for improving operational and cost effectiveness in the areas we review. Second, we earn a success fee when and if certain predefined outcomes occur. Often, performance-based fees supplement our fixed-fee or time-and-expense engagements. The level of performance-based fees earned may vary based on our clients’ risk sharing preferences and the mix of services we provide.
•Software support, maintenance and subscriptions: Clients that have purchased one of our software licenses can pay an annual fee for software support and maintenance. We also generate subscription revenue from our cloud-based analytic tools and solutions including our cloud-based revenue cycle management software and research administration and compliance software. Software support, maintenance and subscription revenues are recognized ratably over the support or subscription period. These fees are generally billed in advance and included in deferred revenues until recognized.
27
Table of Contents
Time-and-expense engagements do not provide us with a high degree of predictability as to performance in future periods. Unexpected changes in the demand for our services can result in significant variations in utilization and revenues and present a challenge to optimal hiring and staffing. Moreover, our clients typically retain us on an engagement-by-engagement basis, rather than under long-term recurring contracts. The volume of work performed for any particular client can vary widely from period to period.
Our quarterly results are impacted principally by the total value, scope, and terms of our client contracts, the number of our revenue-generating professionals who are available to work, our revenue-generating professionals' utilization rate, and the bill rates we charge our clients. Our utilization rate can be negatively affected by increased hiring because there is generally a transition period for new professionals that results in a temporary drop in our utilization rate. Our utilization rate can also be affected by seasonal variations in the demand for our services from our clients. For example, during the third and fourth quarters of the year, vacations taken by our clients can result in the deferral of activity on existing and new engagements, which would negatively affect our utilization rate. The number of business work days is also affected by the number of vacation days taken by our consultants and holidays in each quarter. We typically have fewer business work days available in the fourth quarter of the year, which can impact revenues during that period.
Reimbursable Expenses
Reimbursable expenses that are billed to clients, primarily relating to travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with client engagements, are included in total revenues. We manage our business on the basis of revenues before reimbursable expenses, which we believe is the most accurate reflection of our services because it eliminates the effect of reimbursable expenses that we bill to our clients at cost.
Operating Expenses
Our most significant expenses are costs classified as direct costs. Direct costs primarily consist of compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals, which includes salaries, performance bonuses, share-based compensation, signing and retention bonuses, payroll taxes and benefits. Direct costs also include fees paid to independent contractors that we retain to supplement our revenue-generating professionals, typically on an as-needed basis for specific client engagements, and technology costs, product and event costs, and commissions. Direct costs exclude amortization of intangible assets and software development costs and reimbursable expenses, both of which are separately presented in our consolidated statements of operations.
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consists of compensation costs for our support personnel, which includes salaries, performance bonuses, share-based compensation, signing and retention bonuses, payroll taxes, benefits and deferred compensation expense attributable to the change in market value of our deferred compensation liability. Changes in the market value of our deferred compensation liability are offset with the changes in market value of investments that are used to fund our deferred compensation liability, which are recorded within other income (expense), net. Also included in selling, general and administrative expenses are third-party professional fees, software licenses and data hosting expenses, rent and other office-related expenses, sales- and marketing-related expenses, recruiting and training expenses, and practice administration and meeting expenses.
Other operating expenses include restructuring charges, other gains and losses, depreciation expense, and amortization expense related to internally developed software costs and intangible assets acquired in business combinations.
Segment Results
Segment operating income consists of the revenues generated by a segment, less operating expenses that are incurred directly by the segment. Unallocated corporate expenses not allocated at the segment level include costs related to administrative functions that are performed in a centralized manner, as well as restructuring charges, depreciation and amortization, and interest expense that are not attributable to a particular segment. The administrative function costs include corporate office support costs, office facility costs, costs related to accounting and finance, human resources, legal, marketing, information technology, and company-wide business development functions, and costs related to overall corporate management.
Non-GAAP Measures
We also assess our results of operations using the following non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP financial measures differ from GAAP because they exclude a number of items required by GAAP, each discussed below. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flows, or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently from time to time and may be defined differently than similar terms used by other companies, and accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how we define our non-GAAP financial measures.
Our management uses the non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance, for example when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in their financial and operating decision making because management believes they reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period
28
Table of Contents
comparisons. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures when publicly providing our business outlook, for internal management purposes, and as a basis for evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Huron’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does and in comparing in a consistent manner Huron’s current financial results with Huron’s past financial results.
These non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments for the following items:
Amortization of intangible assets: We exclude the effect of amortization of intangible assets from the calculation of adjusted net income, as it is inconsistent in its amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our acquisitions.
Restructuring charges: We have incurred charges due to restructuring various parts of our business. These restructuring charges have primarily consisted of costs associated with office space consolidations, including lease impairment charges and accelerated depreciation on lease-related property and equipment, and employee severance charges. We exclude the effect of the restructuring charges from our non-GAAP measures to permit comparability with periods that were not impacted by these items. We do not include normal, recurring, cash operating expenses in our restructuring charges.
2024 litigation settlement gain: In the second quarter of 2024, we settled a litigation matter in which Huron was the plaintiff for $15.0 million, on a pre-tax basis. This $15.0 million settlement gain was recorded as a component of other gains, net on our consolidated statement of operations. We have excluded from our non-GAAP measures $11.7 million, which is the value of the settlement gain that exceeds the third-party legal costs incurred during 2024 specific to this litigation matter, as this net gain is not indicative of the ongoing performance of our business. Of the $3.3 million third-party legal costs incurred for this matter in the first half of 2024, $2.7 million was incurred in the first quarter and $0.6 million was incurred in the second quarter. Our third-party legal expenses are recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses on our statement of operations.
Other losses (gains), net: We exclude the effects of other losses and gains, which primarily relate to changes in the estimated fair value of our liabilities for contingent consideration related to business acquisitions and litigation settlement losses and gains, to permit comparability with periods that are not impacted by these items. These items are recorded as a component of other losses (gains), net on our consolidated statement of operations.
Transaction-related expenses: To permit comparability with prior periods, we exclude the impact of third-party advisory, legal, and accounting fees and other corporate costs incurred directly related to the evaluation and/or consummation of business acquisitions.
Unrealized losses (gains) on long-term investments: We exclude the effect of unrealized losses and gains related to our long-term investments, which include non-cash credit-related impairment charges on our convertible debt investment in Shorelight Holdings, LLC and changes in the fair value of our equity investment in a hospital-at-home company arising from observable price changes or impairment charges. These unrealized losses and gains are included as a component of other income (expense), net on our consolidated statements of operations. We believe these unrealized losses and gains are not indicative of the ongoing performance of our business and their exclusion permits comparability with prior periods.
Foreign currency transaction losses (gains), net: We exclude the effect of foreign currency transaction losses and gains from the calculation of adjusted EBITDA because the amount of each loss or gain is significantly affected by changes in foreign exchange rates.
Tax effect of adjustments: The non-GAAP income tax adjustment reflects the incremental tax impact applicable to the non-GAAP adjustments.
Income tax expense, interest expense, net of interest income, depreciation and amortization: We exclude the effects of income tax expense, interest expense, net of interest income, and depreciation and amortization in the calculation of EBITDA, as these are customary exclusions as defined by the calculation of EBITDA to arrive at meaningful earnings from core operations excluding the effect of such items. We include, within the depreciation and amortization adjustment, the amortization of capitalized implementation costs of our ERP and other related software, which is included within selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.

Revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $30.9 million, or 8.3%, to $402.5 million for the second quarter of 2025 from $371.7 million for the second quarter of 2024. The increase in revenues before reimbursable expenses reflects continued strength in demand for our Digital capabilities within our Commercial and Education segments and our Consulting and Managed Services capabilities within our Healthcare and Education segments. The increase includes $13.1 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisition of AXIA Consulting in December 2024. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in demand for our Consulting and Managed Services capability within our Commercial segment and our Digital capability within our Healthcare segment.
Revenues before reimbursable expenses within our Consulting and Managed Services capability increased 4.9% in the second quarter of 2025 to $229.1 million, compared to $218.3 million in the second quarter of 2024; and reflected strengthened demand in our Healthcare and Education segments, partially offset by a decrease in demand in our Commercial segment.

Revenues before reimbursable expenses within our Digital capability increased 13.1% in the second quarter of 2025 to $173.4 million, compared to $153.3 million in the second quarter of 2024; and reflected strengthened demand in our Commercial and Education segments, partially offset by a decrease in demand in our Healthcare segment. The increase includes $13.1 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisition of AXIA Consulting in December 2024. The utilization rate within our Digital capability increased to 77.8% in the second quarter of 2025, compared to 75.0% in the second quarter of 2024.
Our total number of revenue-generating professionals, excluding Managed Services professionals, increased 7.8% to 4,963 as of June 30, 2025, compared to 4,604 as of June 30, 2024, as a result of the acquisitions completed since the second quarter of 2024 and hiring to support the overall increase in demand for our services. The number of Managed Services professionals increased 54.2% to 1,918 as of June 30, 2025 from 1,244 as of June 30, 2024, as a result of hiring to support the increase in demand for our services. We proactively plan and manage the size and composition of our workforce and take actions as needed to address changes in the anticipated demand for our services as employee compensation costs are the most significant portion of our operating expenses.
Net income was $19.4 million, or 4.7% of total revenues, for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $37.5 million, or 9.8% of total revenues, for the same period last year. Net income for the second quarter of 2025 includes an $8.2 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge, net of tax, related to our convertible debt investment in a third-party. Net income for the second quarter of 2024 includes an $11.1 million litigation settlement gain, net of tax, related to a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff. Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.09, compared to $2.03 for the second quarter of 2024. The non-cash credit-related impairment charge recognized in the second quarter of 2025 had an unfavorable $0.46 impact on diluted earnings per share for the period. The litigation settlement gain recognized in the second quarter of 2024 had a favorable $0.60 impact on diluted earnings per share in the prior year period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 12.5% to $1.89 for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.68 for the second quarter of 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $4.9 million, or 8.8%, to $60.6 million, or 15.1% of revenues before reimbursable expenses, for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $55.7 million, or 15.0% of revenues before reimbursable expenses, for the same period last year.
In the first six months of 2025, we deployed $133.9 million of capital to repurchase 938,280 shares of our common stock, representing 5.3% of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2024.

Revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $30.9 million, or 8.3%, to $402.5 million for the second quarter of 2025 from $371.7 million for the second quarter of 2024. The overall increase in revenues before reimbursable expenses reflects continued strength in demand for our Digital capabilities within our Commercial and Education segments and our Consulting and Managed Services capabilities within our Healthcare and Education segments. The increase includes $13.1 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisition of AXIA Consulting in December 2024. These increases were partially offset by decreases in demand for our Consulting and Managed Services capability within our Commercial segment and our Digital capability within our Healthcare segment. Additional information on our revenues before reimbursable expenses by segment follows.
•Healthcare revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $7.7 million, or 4.1%, driven by continued strength in demand for our performance improvement and financial advisory solutions within our Consulting and Managed Services capability. These increases in demand were partially offset by a decrease in demand for our technology and analytics services within our Digital capability and a decrease in revenues before reimbursable expenses due to the divestiture of our Studer Education practice in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Studer Education business generated $3.5 million of revenues before reimbursable expenses in the second quarter of 2024. Revenues before reimbursable expenses in the second quarter of 2025 included $0.6 million of incremental revenues from our acquisitions of AXIA Consulting and Eclipse Insights.
The number of revenue-generating professionals, excluding Managed Services professionals, within our Healthcare segment grew 8.7% to 1,329 as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1,223 as of June 30, 2024. Our acquisition of Eclipse Insights in June 2025 added approximately 40 revenue-generating professionals.
•Education revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $6.5 million, or 5.3%, driven by continued strength in demand for our strategy and operations solution within our Consulting and Managed Services capability, as well as strengthened demand for our software products within our Digital capability. Revenues before reimbursable expenses in the second quarter of 2025 included $2.2 million of incremental revenues from our acquisitions of AXIA Consulting, Advancement Resources and Halpin.
The number of revenue-generating professionals within our Education segment, excluding Managed Services professionals, grew 4.8% to 1,169 as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1,115 as of June 30, 2024. Our acquisitions of Advancement Resources and Halpin in March 2025 added approximately 30 revenue-generating professionals.
•Commercial revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $16.6 million, or 28.2%, which included $12.3 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisition of AXIA Consulting completed in December 2024 and strengthened demand for our technology and analytics services within our Digital capability. These increases were partially offset by decreases in demand for our financial advisory and strategy and innovation solutions within our Consulting and Managed Services capability.
The number of revenue-generating professionals within our Commercial segment, the majority of which provide services across all of our industries, grew 8.8% to 2,465 as of June 30, 2025, compared to 2,266 as of June 30, 2024, including our acquisition of AXIA Consulting in December 2024 which added approximately 130 revenue-generating professionals.

Direct Costs
Direct costs increased $20.4 million, or 8.2%, to $269.0 million for the second quarter of 2025 from $248.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. The $20.4 million increase primarily related to a $12.7 million increase in compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals and a $5.7 million increase in contractor expenses. The increase in compensation costs reflects our investment to grow our talented team to meet increased market demand and is primarily attributable to a $15.4 million increase in salaries and related expenses driven by increased headcount and annual salary increases that went into effect in the first quarter of 2025 and a $1.1 million increase in signing, retention and other bonus expense; partially offset by a $2.9 million decrease in performance bonus expense. As a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses, direct costs decreased to 66.8% during the second quarter of 2025, compared to 66.9% during the second quarter of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in performance bonus expense for our revenue-generating professionals; largely offset by an increase in contractor expenses, as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses.

Reimbursable expenses are billed to clients at cost and primarily relate to travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with client engagements. These expenses are also included in total revenues. We manage our business on the basis of revenues before reimbursable expenses, which we believe is the most accurate reflection of our services because it eliminates the effect of reimbursable expenses that are also included as a component of operating expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $8.8 million, or 12.3%, to $80.2 million in the second quarter of 2025 from $71.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. The $8.8 million increase includes a $4.6 million increase in compensation costs for our support personnel; a $1.4 million increase in software and data hosting expenses; a $1.2 million increase in legal expenses, driven by professional fees for our programmatic acquisition activity; and a $1.0 million increase in promotion and marketing expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in bad debt expense. The $4.6 million increase in compensation costs for our support personnel was driven by a $3.0 million increase in deferred compensation expense attributable to the change in market value of our deferred compensation liability and a $2.3 million increase in salaries and related expenses. The increase in deferred compensation expense is offset by an increase in the gain recognized for the change in the market value of investments that are used to fund our deferred compensation liability and recognized in other income (expense), net. As a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 19.9% during the second quarter of 2025, compared to 19.2% during the second quarter of 2024, which was primarily driven by the increase in our deferred compensation expense attributable to the change in market value of our deferred compensation liability, as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses.
Other Gains, Net
Other gains, net totaled $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $15.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. The $0.1 million of other gains, net in the second quarter of 2025 consisted of a remeasurement gain to decrease the fair value of a contingent consideration liability related to business combinations. The $15.9 million of other gains, net in the second quarter of 2024 consisted of a pre-tax $15.0 million litigation settlement gain for a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff, as well as $0.9 million of remeasurement gains to decrease the fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities related to business combinations.

Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges for the second quarter of 2025 were $0.6 million, compared to $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2024. The $0.6 million of restructuring charges recognized in the second quarter of 2025 primarily consisted of rent and related expenses, net of sublease income, for our previously vacated office spaces.
The $2.1 million of restructuring charges recognized in the second quarter of 2024 included a $1.4 million non-cash impairment charge on the right-of-use operating lease asset and fixed assets for the office space previously occupied by GG+A, which we exited in the second quarter of 2024. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2024, we recognized $0.6 million of restructuring expense for rent and related expenses, net of sublease income, for our previously vacated office spaces.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.1 million, or 18.0%, to $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2024. The $1.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to increases in amortization of intangible assets acquired in business acquisitions and internally developed software.
Operating Income
Operating income decreased $13.7 million, or 23.1%, to $45.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 from $59.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. Operating margin, which is defined as operating income expressed as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses was 11.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 16.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

•Healthcare operating income increased $4.4 million, or 8.0%, primarily due to the increase in revenues before reimbursable expenses, as well as decreases in bad debt expense and salaries and related expenses for our support personnel; partially offset by increases in compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals and contractor expenses. The increase in compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals was primarily driven by an increase in headcount and annual salary increases that went into effect in the first quarter of 2025. Healthcare operating margin increased to 30.2% from 29.1% primarily due to the decreases in bad debt expense and salaries and related expenses for our support personnel; partially off by an increase in contractor expenses, as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses.
•Education operating income increased $1.5 million, or 5.0%, primarily due to the increase in revenues before reimbursable expenses and a decrease in performance bonus expense for our revenue-generating professionals; partially offset by increases in salaries and related expenses for our revenue-generating professionals and support personnel, project costs, contractor expenses, and amortization of internally developed software. The increases in salaries and related expenses for our revenue-generating professionals and support personnel were primarily driven by an increase in headcount and annual salary increases that went into effect in the first quarter of 2025. Education operating margin decreased to 25.0% from 25.1% primarily driven by the increases in project costs, salaries and related expenses for our support personnel, amortization of internally developed software, and contractor expenses, as percentages of revenues before reimbursable expenses; largely offset by revenue growth that outpaced the increase in salaries and related expenses for our revenue-generating professionals and the decrease in performance bonus expenses for our revenue-generating professionals.
•Commercial operating income increased $3.5 million, or 38.7%, primarily due to the increase in revenues before reimbursable expense; partially offset by increases in compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals and contractor expenses.

•Unallocated corporate expenses increased $8.7 million, or 19.0%, primarily due to increases in compensation costs for our support personnel, legal expenses, and third-party professional fees. The increase in compensation costs for our support personnel was primarily driven by an increase in deferred compensation expense attributable to the change in market value of our deferred compensation liability and an increase in headcount and annual salary increases that went into effect in the first quarter of 2025. The increases in legal expenses and third-party professional fees was primarily driven by professional fees for our programmatic acquisition activity.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest expense, net of interest income increased $1.3 million to $9.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 from $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2024, which was primarily attributable to higher levels of borrowing and higher interest rates under our Amended Credit Facility during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below and Note 8 “Financing Arrangements” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information about our Amended Credit Facility.
Other income (expense), net totaled expense of $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to income of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. In the second quarter of 2025, we recognized a pre-tax $11.1 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge related to our convertible debt investment in a third-party, a non-cash impairment charge of $0.8 million on our equity investment in a hospital-at-home company, and $0.2 million of foreign currency transaction losses. These losses were offset by a $3.5 million gain for the market value of our investments that are used to fund our deferred compensation liability. In the second quarter of 2024, we recognized a $0.5 million gain for the market value of our deferred compensation investments and $0.1 million of foreign currency transaction gains. The change in the market value of our investments that are used to fund our deferred compensation liability are offset with deferred compensation expense which is recognized as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 11 “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our convertible debt and equity investments. See Note 10 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our foreign exchange forward contracts.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, our effective tax rate was 29.9% as we recognized income tax expense of $8.3 million on income of $27.7 million. The effective tax rate of 29.9% was less favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.0%, primarily due to the establishment of a valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset recorded as the result of the capital loss on our investment in a hospital-at-home company as well as certain nondeductible expense items, partially offset by a tax benefit related to non-taxable gains on our investments used to fund our deferred compensation liability.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate was 28.1% as we recognized income tax expense of $14.6 million on income of $52.1 million. The effective tax rate of 28.1% was less favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.1%, primarily due to certain nondeductible expense items.
Net Income and Earnings per Share
Net income decreased $18.1 million, or 48.2%, to $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $37.5 million for the same period last year driven by the $11.1 million litigation settlement gain, net of tax, recognized in the second quarter 2024 related to a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff and the $8.2 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge, net of tax, recognized in the second quarter of 2025 related to our convertible debt investment in a third-party. Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 decreased to $1.09 from $2.03 for the second quarter of 2024; driven by the decrease in net income, partially offset by a reduction in diluted shares outstanding resulting from share repurchases made under our share repurchase plan. The non-cash credit-related impairment charge on our convertible debt investment had an unfavorable $0.46 impact on diluted EPS during the second quarter of 2025, while the litigation settlement gain related to a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff had a favorable $0.60 impact on diluted EPS for the prior year period.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA decreased $22.0 million, or 33.2%, to $44.3 million for the second quarter of 2025 from $66.3 million for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in EBITDA was primarily attributable to the pre-tax $15.0 million litigation settlement gain recognized in the second quarter of 2024 for a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff, the pre-tax $11.1 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge related to our convertible debt investment in a third-party, and the increase in unallocated corporate expenses, excluding the impact of the change in the market value of our deferred compensation liability; partially offset by the increases in segment operating income for all three operating segments, excluding segment depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $4.9 million, or 8.8%, to $60.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 from $55.7 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the increases in segment operating income for all three operating segments, excluding segment depreciation and amortization and segment restructuring charges; partially offset by the increase in unallocated corporate expenses, excluding the impact of the change in the market value of our deferred compensation liability and transaction-related expenses.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share
Adjusted net income increased $2.7 million, or 8.8%, to $33.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $30.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. As a result of the increase in adjusted net income as well as a reduction in diluted shares outstanding resulting from share repurchases made under our share repurchase plan, adjusted diluted earnings per share increased to $1.89 for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $1.68 for the second quarter of 2024.

Revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $70.6 million, or 9.7%, to $798.2 million for the first six months of 2025 from $727.6 million for the first six months of 2024. The overall increase in revenues before reimbursable expenses reflects continued strength in demand for our Digital capabilities within our Commercial and Education segments and our Consulting and Managed Services capabilities within our Healthcare and Education segments. The increase includes $24.9 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisition of AXIA Consulting in December 2024. These increases were partially offset by decreases in demand for our Consulting and Managed Services capability within our Commercial segment and our Digital capability within our Healthcare segment. Additional information on our revenues before reimbursable expenses by segment follows.
•Healthcare revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $25.5 million, or 6.9%, driven by continued strength in demand for our performance improvement and financial advisory solutions within our Consulting and Managed Services capability. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in revenues before reimbursable expenses due to the divestiture of our Studer Education practice in the fourth quarter of 2024 and a decrease in revenues before reimbursable expenses for our technology and analytics services within our Digital capability. The Studer Education business generated $6.9 million of revenues before reimbursable expenses in the first six months of 2024. Revenues before reimbursable expenses in the first six months of 2025 included $0.8 million of incremental revenues from our acquisitions of AXIA Consulting and Eclipse Insights.
The number of revenue-generating professionals, excluding Managed Services professionals, within our Healthcare segment grew 8.7% to 1,329 as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1,223 as of June 30, 2024. Our acquisition of Eclipse Insights in June 2025 added approximately 40 revenue-generating professionals.
•Education revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $17.7 million, or 7.6%, driven by continued strength in demand for our strategy and operations solution within our Consulting and Managed Services capability and our software products within our Digital capability, as well as $6.1 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisitions of GG+A, Advancement Resources, AXIA Consulting, and Halpin.
The number of revenue-generating professionals within our Education segment, excluding Managed Services professionals, grew 4.8% to 1,169 as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1,115 as of June 30, 2024. Our acquisitions of Advancement Resources and Halpin in March 2025 added approximately 30 revenue-generating professionals.
•Commercial revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $27.4 million, or 22.4%, which included $23.5 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from our acquisition of AXIA Consulting completed in December 2024 and strengthened demand for our technology and analytics services within our Digital capability.

The $45.2 million increase primarily related to a $38.1 million increase in compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals, a $5.3 million increase in contractor expenses, and a $1.4 million increase in technology costs. The increase in compensation costs reflects our investment to grow our talented team to meet increased market demand and is primarily attributable to a $31.9 million increase in salaries and related expenses driven by increased headcount and annual salary increases that went into effect in the first quarter of 2025, a $4.7 million increase in performance bonus expense and a $1.4 million increase in signing, retention and other bonus expense. As a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses, direct costs decreased to 68.5% during the first six months of 2025, compared to 69.0% during the first six months of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to revenue growth that outpaced the increase in compensation costs for our revenue-generating professionals; partially offset by an increase in contractor expenses, as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses.

The $7.4 million increase in compensation costs for our support personnel was driven by a $6.4 million increase in salaries and related expenses and a $1.9 million increase in performance bonus expense. As a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 19.7% during the first six months of 2025, compared to 19.8% during the first six months of 2024, which was primarily driven by the decreases in legal expenses and bad debt expense; largely offset by the increase in software and data hosting expenses, as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses.
Other Gains, Net
Other gains, net totaled $0.1 million in the first six months of 2025 and $14.3 million in the first six months of 2024. The $0.1 million of other gains, net in the first six months of 2025 consisted of a remeasurement gain to decrease the fair value of a contingent consideration liability related to business combinations.

Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest expense, net of interest income increased $1.8 million to $14.9 million in the first six months of 2025 from $13.1 million in the first six months of 2024, which was primarily attributable to higher levels of borrowing and higher interest rates under our Amended Credit Facility during the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024.

In the first six months of 2024, we recognized a $2.8 million gain for the market value of our deferred compensation investments and $0.6 million of foreign currency transaction gains. The change in the market value of our investments that are used to fund our deferred compensation liability are offset with deferred compensation expense which is recognized as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 10 “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our convertible debt and equity investments. See Note 9 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our foreign exchange forward contracts.
Income Tax Expense
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, our effective tax rate was 10.6% as we recognized income tax expense of $5.2 million on income of $49.2 million. The effective tax rate of 10.6% was more favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.0%, primarily due to a discrete tax benefit for share-based compensation awards that vested during the first quarter of 2025. This favorable item was partially offset by the establishment of a valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset recorded as the result of the capital loss on our investment in a hospital-at-home company and certain nondeductible expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate was 20.3% as we recognized income tax expense of $14.2 million on income of $69.7 million. The effective tax rate of 20.3% was more favorable than the statutory rate, inclusive of state income taxes, of 26.1%, primarily due to a discrete tax benefit for share-based compensation awards that vested during the first quarter of 2024 and a tax benefit related to non-taxable gains on our investments used to fund our deferred compensation liability. These favorable items were partially offset by certain nondeductible expense items.

Net Income and Earnings per Share
Net income decreased $11.5 million, or 20.8%, to $44.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $55.5 million for the same period last year, driven by the $11.1 million litigation settlement gain, net of tax, recognized in the second quarter 2024 related to a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff and the $8.2 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge, net of tax, recognized in the second quarter of 2025 related to our convertible debt investment in a third-party. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $2.42 compared to $2.96 for the six months ended June 30, 2024; driven by the decrease in net income, partially offset by a reduction in diluted shares outstanding resulting from share repurchases made under our share repurchase plan. The non-cash credit-related impairment charge on our convertible debt investment had an unfavorable $0.45 impact on diluted EPS during the first six months of 2025, while the litigation settlement gain related to a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff had a favorable $0.59 impact on diluted EPS for the prior year period.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA decreased $16.6 million, or 17.5%, to $78.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $95.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in EBITDA was primarily attributable to the pre-tax $15.0 million litigation settlement gain recognized in the second quarter of 2024 for a completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff; the pre-tax $11.1 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge, recognized in the second quarter of 2025 related to our convertible debt investment in a third-party; the increase in unallocated corporate expenses, excluding the impact of the change in the market value of our deferred compensation liability; and the $5.0 million of non-cash impairment charges recognized on our equity investment in a hospital-at-home company in the first six months of 2025. These decreases were partially offset by the increases in segment operating income for all three operating segments, excluding segment depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $12.6 million, or 14.0%, to $102.1 million in the first six months of 2025 from $89.5 million in the first six months of 2024. The increase in adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the increases in segment operating income for all three operating segments, excluding segment depreciation and amortization and segment restructuring charges; partially offset by the increase in unallocated corporate expenses, excluding the impacts of the change in the market value of our deferred compensation liability and transaction-related expenses.
Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings per Share
Adjusted net income increased $10.6 million, or 19.5%, to $64.8 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $54.2 million in the first six months of 2024. As a result of the increase in adjusted net income as well as a reduction in diluted shares outstanding resulting from share repurchases made under our share repurchase plan, adjusted diluted earnings per share increased to $3.57 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.89 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents were $61.0 million and $21.9 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flows from our U.S. operations, and borrowing capacity available under our credit facility.

Operating Activities
Our operating assets and liabilities consist primarily of receivables from billed and unbilled services, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued payroll and related benefits, operating lease obligations and deferred revenues. The volume of services rendered and the related billings and timing of collections on those billings, as well as payments of our accounts payable and salaries, bonuses, and related benefits to employees affect these account balances. Our purchase obligations primarily consist of payments for software and other information technology products to support our business and corporate infrastructure.
Net cash used in operating activities increased by $3.3 million to $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $23.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily related to an increase in payments for salaries and related expenses for our revenue-generating professionals, an increase in the amount paid for annual performance bonuses in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, and an increase in payments for selling, general and administrative expenses; partially offset by an increase in cash collections in the first six months of 2025.

Investing Activities
Our investing activities primarily consist of purchases of complementary businesses; purchases of property and equipment, primarily related to computers and related equipment for our employees and leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures for office spaces; payments related to internally developed cloud-based software sold to our clients; and investments. Our investments include a convertible note investment in Shorelight Holdings, LLC, an equity investment in a hospital-at-home company, and investments in life insurance policies that are used to fund our deferred compensation liability.
Net cash used in investing activities was $70.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which primarily consisted of $53.1 million for purchases of businesses; $10.9 million for payments related to internally developed software to advance our Education and Healthcare software products; $3.9 million for purchases of property and equipment, primarily related to purchases of computers and related equipment and leasehold improvements for certain office spaces; and $2.3 million for contributions to our life insurance policies.
Net cash used in investing activities was $39.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which primarily consisted of $20.8 million for purchases of businesses; $14.1 million for payments related to internally developed software to advance our Healthcare and Education software products; $3.7 million for purchases of property and equipment, primarily related to purchases of computers and related equipment and leasehold improvements for certain office spaces; and $1.4 million for contributions to our life insurance policies.
We estimate that cash utilized for purchases of property and equipment and software development in 2025 will total approximately $35 million to $40 million; primarily consisting of software development costs, information technology-related equipment to support our corporate infrastructure, and leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures for certain office locations.
Financing Activities
Our financing activities primarily consist of borrowings and repayments under our senior secured credit facility, share repurchases, shares redeemed for employee tax withholdings upon vesting of share-based compensation, and payments for contingent consideration liabilities related to business acquisitions. See “Financing Arrangements” below for additional information on our senior secured credit facility.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $135.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we borrowed $552.0 million and made repayments on our borrowings of $251.9 million. The net borrowings of $300.1 million were primarily used to fund our operations, including our annual performance bonus payments in the first quarter of 2025, and our programmatic business acquisitions. Additionally, during the first six months of 2025, we paid $134.4 million for the settlement of share repurchases and we reacquired $32.5 million of common stock as a result of tax withholdings upon vesting of share-based compensation. These uses of cash for financing activities were partially offset by $2.6 million of cash received from stock option exercises in the first six months of 2025.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $68.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we borrowed $618.5 million and made repayments on our borrowings of $430.9 million. The borrowings and repayments during the first six months of 2024 include the $275.0 million Term Loan proceeds which were used to repay borrowings under the Revolver in the first quarter of 2024. The net borrowings of $187.6 million were primarily used to fund our operations including our annual performance bonus payments in the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, during the first six months of 2024, we paid $97.3 million for the settlement of share repurchases and we reacquired $21.1 million of common stock as a result of tax withholdings upon vesting of share-based compensation. We also made payments of $1.4 million for debt issuance costs related to the Term Loan. These uses of cash for financing activities were partially offset by $1.2 million cash received from stock option exercises in the first six months of 2024.
Share Repurchase Program
In November 2020, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program permitting us to repurchase up to $50 million of our common stock through December 31, 2021. The share repurchase program has been subsequently extended and increased, most recently in the first quarter of 2025. The current authorization extends the share repurchase program through December 31, 2026 with a repurchase amount of $700 million, of which $131.3 million remains available as of June 30, 2025. The amount and timing of repurchases under the share repurchase program were and will continue to be determined by management and depend on a variety of factors, including the trading price of our common stock, capacity under our credit facility, general market and business conditions, and applicable legal requirements.
Financing Arrangements
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and a $275 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), subject to the terms of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 15, 2022 (as amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), both of which fully mature on November 15, 2027. In July 2025, the Company entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated, in its entirety, the Existing Credit Agreement.

Table of Contents
Borrowings outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 totaled $657.8 million and $357.7 million, respectively. Of the $657.8 million outstanding as of June 30, 2025, $400.0 million was outstanding under the Revolver and $257.8 million was outstanding under the Term Loan. Of the $357.7 million outstanding as of December 31, 2024, $93.0 million was outstanding under the Revolver and $264.7 million was outstanding under the Term Loan. These borrowings carried a weighted average interest rate of 5.6% at June 30, 2025 and 4.7% at December 31, 2024, including the impact of the interest rate swaps described in Note 10 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity” within the notes to the consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2025, the unused borrowing capacity under the Revolver was $199.6 million. Refer to Note 8 “Financing Arrangements” within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Existing Credit Agreement.
Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
The Amended Credit Agreement established a $700 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Amended Revolver") and a $400 million senior secured term loan facility (the "Amended Term Loan"), both of which mature on July 30, 2030. The Amended Term Loan is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments of $5.0 million beginning September 30, 2025 and continue through the maturity date of July 30, 2030, at which time the outstanding principal balance and all accrued interest will be due.
Fees and interest on borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement vary based on our Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). At our option, these borrowings will bear interest at one, three or six month Term SOFR or an alternate base rate, in each case plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin will fluctuate between 1.250% per annum and 1.875% per annum, in the case of Term SOFR borrowings, or between 0.250% per annum and 0.875% per annum, in the case of base rate loans, based upon our Consolidated Leverage Ratio at such time.
Amounts borrowed under the Amended Credit Agreement may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. We are required to prepay the amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement in certain circumstances, including upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). In addition, we have the right to permanently reduce or terminate the unused portion of the commitments provided under the Amended Credit Agreement at any time.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains usual and customary representations and warranties; affirmative and negative covenants, which include limitations on liens, investments, additional indebtedness, and restricted payments; and two quarterly financial covenants as follows: (i) a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio (defined as the ratio of debt to consolidated EBITDA) of 3.75 to 1.00; however the maximum permitted Consolidated Leverage Ratio will increase to 4.25 to 1.00 upon the occurrence of a Qualified Acquisition (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), and (ii) a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (defined as the ratio of consolidated EBITDA to interest) of 3.00 to 1.00. Consolidated EBITDA for purposes of the financial covenants is calculated on a continuing operations basis and includes adjustments to add back non-cash goodwill impairment charges, share-based compensation costs, certain non-cash restructuring charges, pro forma historical EBITDA for businesses acquired, and other specified items in accordance with the Amended Credit Agreement. For purposes of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, total debt is on a gross basis and is not netted against our cash balances.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains restricted payment provisions, including a potential limit on the amount of dividends we may pay. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, if our Consolidated Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50, the amount of dividends and other Restricted Payments (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) we may pay is limited to an amount up to $50 million.
Refer to Note 8 “Financing Arrangements” within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Amended Credit Agreement.
Future Financing Needs
Our primary financing need is to fund our long-term growth. Our growth strategy is to expand our service offerings, which may require investments in new hires, acquisitions of complementary businesses, possible expansion into other geographic areas, and related capital expenditures.
We believe our internally generated liquidity, together with our available cash, and the borrowing capacity available under our senior secured credit facility will be adequate to support our current financing needs and long-term growth strategy. Our ability to secure additional financing in the future, if needed, will depend on several factors, including our future profitability, the quality of our accounts receivable and unbilled services, our relative levels of debt and equity, and the overall condition of the credit markets.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We are not a party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We regularly review our
45
Table of Contents
financial reporting and disclosure practices and accounting policies to ensure that our financial reporting and disclosures provide accurate information relative to the current economic and business environment. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make assessments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies and estimates are those policies and estimates that we believe present the most complex or subjective measurements and have the most potential to impact our financial position and operating results. While all decisions regarding accounting policies and estimates are important, we believe that there are five accounting policies and estimates that could be considered critical: revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts and unbilled services, business combinations, carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets, and accounting for income taxes. For a detailed discussion of these critical accounting policies, see Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 3 “New Accounting Pronouncements” within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for information on new accounting pronouncements.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In July 2025, we acquired TVG-Treliant Holdings, LLC., an advisory and managed services firm that provides expertise to the financial services industry in navigating regulatory requirements. Refer to Note 4 “Acquisitions” within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
In July 2025, we entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which governs our senior secured credit facility. Refer to Note 8 “Financing Arrangements” within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. | ||||
We are exposed to market risks primarily from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates and changes in the market value of our investments. We use certain derivative instruments to hedge a portion of the interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risks.
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to changes in interest rates associated with borrowings under our senior secured credit facility. At our option, these borrowings bear interest at one, three or six month Term SOFR or, in the case of the Revolver, an alternate base rate. At June 30, 2025, we had borrowings outstanding under the credit facility totaling $657.8 million that carried a weighted average interest rate of 5.6%, including the impact of the interest rate swaps described below. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in the interest rate would have a $4.1 million effect on our pretax income on an annualized basis, including the effect of the interest rate swaps. At December 31, 2024, we had borrowings outstanding under the credit facility totaling $357.7 million that carried a weighted average interest rate of 4.7% including the impact of the interest rate swaps described below. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in the interest rate would have had a $1.1 million effect on our pretax income on an annualized basis, including the effect of the interest rate swaps.
We enter into forward interest rate swap agreements to hedge against the interest rate risks of our variable-rate borrowings. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, we receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on one month Term SOFR and we pay to the counterparty a stated, fixed rate. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate notional amount of our forward interest rate swap agreements was $250.0 million. The outstanding interest rate swap agreements as of June 30, 2025 are scheduled to mature on a staggered basis through February 28, 2030.
Foreign Currency Risk
We have exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with our operations in India and Canada. We hedge a portion of our cash flow exposure related to our INR-denominated intercompany expenses and our translation risk related to our USD-denominated intercompany receivables in Canada by entering into foreign exchange forward contracts.
Indian Rupee Forward Contracts: As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate notional amounts of these contracts were Indian Rupee (INR) 0.64 billion, or $7.5 million, and Indian Rupee (INR) 1.40 billion, or $16.3 million, respectively, based on the exchange rates in effect as of each period end. The outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts as of June 30, 2025 are scheduled to mature monthly through April 30, 2026.
Canadian Dollar Forward Contracts: As of June 30, 2025, the notional amount of our outstanding Canadian Dollar forward contract was $25.0 million which is scheduled to settle on September 29, 2025. We had no outstanding Canadian Dollar forward contracts as of December 31, 2024.
We use a sensitivity analysis to determine the effects that market foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations may have on the fair value of our foreign exchange forward contract portfolio. The sensitivity of the portfolio is computed based on the market value of future cash flows as affected by changes in exchange rates. This sensitivity analysis represents the hypothetical changes in value of the derivatives and does not reflect the offsetting gain or loss on the underlying exposure. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in the USD to INR and USD to CAD exchange rates would have an immaterial impact on the fair value of our derivative instruments as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Market Risk
We have a 1.69% convertible debt investment in Shorelight Holdings, LLC, a privately-held company, which we account for as an available-for-sale debt security. As such, the investment is carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. To the extent any decrease in fair value is the result of a credit impairment - calculated as the difference between the present value of expected cash flows to be generated from the investment and the cost basis, limited to the difference between the fair value and cost basis - such credit impairment charge is recorded to other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the investment was $32.8 million with a total cost basis of $40.9 million. The fair value of $32.8 million as of June 30, 2025 includes a non-cash credit-related impairment charge of $11.1 million. At December 31, 2024, the fair value of the investment was $62.3 million, with a total cost basis of $40.9 million.The decrease in fair value in the first six months of 2025 was driven by a decrease in the projected cash flows of Shorelight, which reflects the current federal regulatory environment in which Shorelight operates.
We have an equity investment in a privately-held hospital-at-home company, which we account for as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value using the measurement alternative. As such, the investment is carried at cost minus impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying value of the investment was $2.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively, with a total cost basis of $5.0 million. In the first quarter of 2025, we recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $4.2 million on our investment based on the valuation anticipated from the hospital-at-home company's merger with a third-party. Upon the completion of the merger in the second quarter of 2025, we recognized an additional $0.8 million non-cash impairment charge based on the final valuation utilized in the merger. The non-cash impairment charges were recorded to other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of operations.

Refer to Note 11 “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional on these investments.
We do not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. From time to time, we invest excess cash in short-term marketable securities. These investments principally consist of overnight sweep accounts. Due to the short maturity of these investments, we have concluded that we do not have material market risk exposure. Refer to Note 10 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity” within the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our derivative instruments.
| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. | ||||
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, and such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
| ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. | ||||
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to any litigation or legal proceeding or subject to any claim that, in the current opinion of management, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, due to the risks and uncertainties inherent in legal proceedings, actual results could differ from current expected results.
| ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS. | ||||
See Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the "2024 Form 10-K"), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2025, for a complete description of the material risks we face. There have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors since the 2024 Form 10-K.
| ITEM 2. | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. | ||||
On June 24, 2025, as partial consideration for our acquisition of Eclipse, we issued 147,221 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, with an aggregate value of $19.8 million. The issuance was exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.
Our Stock Ownership Participation Program and 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan permit the netting of common stock upon vesting of restricted stock awards to satisfy individual tax withholding requirements. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, we reacquired 2,377 shares of common stock with a weighted average fair market value of $136.97 as a result of such tax withholdings.
In November 2020, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program permitting us to repurchase up to $50 million of our common stock through December 31, 2021. The share repurchase program has been subsequently extended and increased, most recently in the first quarter of 2025. The current authorization extends the share repurchase program through December 31, 2026 with a repurchase amount of $700 million, of which $131.3 million remains available as of June 30, 2025. The amount and timing of repurchases under the share repurchase program were and will continue to be determined by management and depend on a variety of factors, including the trading price of our common stock, capacity under our credit facility, general market and business conditions, and applicable legal requirements.
