Global professional services firm Huron (Nasdaq: HURN) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

“Revenues before reimbursable expenses (RBR) in the quarter grew 8% compared to the second quarter of 2024, including organic RBR growth across all three operating segments,” said Mark Hussey, chief executive officer and president of Huron.

“We remain confident in our prospects for continued growth in 2025 as reflected in our updated annual guidance. Our core end markets continue to face significant market disruption as health systems, universities and commercial businesses adapt to regulatory or macroeconomic pressures while evolving their business models for the future. Our clients continue to seek our deep industry and institutional expertise, breadth of capabilities, and proven track record of delivering results to help them achieve a more sustainable path forward,” added Hussey.

SECOND QUARTER 2025 RESULTS

Revenues before reimbursable expenses increased $30.9 million, or 8.3%, to $402.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $371.7 million for the second quarter of 2024. This growth, which includes $13.1 million of incremental revenues before reimbursable expenses from the company's acquisition of AXIA Consulting in December 2024, reflects continued strength in demand for the company's Digital capabilities within the Commercial and Education segments and the company's Consulting and Managed Services capabilities within the Healthcare and Education segments. These increases were partially offset by decreases in demand for the company's Consulting and Managed Services capability within the Commercial segment and the company's Digital capability within the Healthcare segment.

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 quarter last year. Results for Q2 2025 include an $8.2 million non-cash impairment charge, net of tax, related to the company's convertible debt investment in a third-party. Results for Q2 2024 include 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 was $1.09 for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $2.03 for the second quarter of 2024. The non-cash impairment charge related to the company's convertible debt investment in a third-party 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.

Second quarter 2025 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”)(6) was $44.3 million compared to $66.3 million in the same prior year period. Results for the second quarter of 2025 include a pre-tax $11.1 million non-cash impairment charge related to the company's convertible debt investment in a third-party. Results for the second quarter of 2024 include a pre-tax $15.0 million litigation settlement gain related to the completed legal matter in which Huron was the plaintiff.

In addition to using EBITDA to evaluate the company’s financial performance, management uses other non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the effect of the following items (in thousands).

SECOND QUARTER 2025 WEBCAST

The company will host a webcast to discuss its financial results today, July 31, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, 4:00 p.m. Central Time. The conference call is being webcast by Notified and can be accessed from Huron's website at http://ir.huronconsultinggroup.com. A replay will be available approximately two hours after the conclusion of the webcast and for 90 days thereafter.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES(6)

In evaluating the company’s financial performance and outlook, management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the company's comparative operating performance (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 the company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures when publicly providing their business outlook, for internal management purposes, and as a basis for evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions. Management believes 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, if they so choose, and in comparing in a consistent manner Huron’s current financial results with Huron’s past financial results. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Management has provided its outlook regarding adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues before reimbursable expenses and adjusted diluted earnings per share, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures and exclude certain charges. Management has not reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP financial measures because guidance for the various reconciling items is not provided. Management is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because they cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of the company's control and cannot be reasonably predicted since these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.

In evaluating the company’s financial performance and outlook, management uses 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, which are non-GAAP measures. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the company's comparative operating performance (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 the company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures when publicly providing the company's business outlook, for internal management purposes, and as a basis for evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions. Management believes 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, if they so choose, and in comparing in a consistent manner Huron’s current financial results with Huron’s past financial results. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

(7)

The non-GAAP financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 include an adjustment for the 2024 litigation settlement gain. In the second quarter of 2024, the company 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 the consolidated statement of operations. The company has excluded from the 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 Huron's 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. Third-party legal expenses are recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses on the statement of operations.

(8)

The non-GAAP financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 include an adjustment of $11.9 million and $16.1 million, respectively, of unrealized losses on long-term investments as these unrealized losses related to investments in third parties and are not indicative of the ongoing performance of Huron's business. These unrealized losses were recorded as a component of other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of operations. The $11.9 million of unrealized losses recorded in the second quarter of 2025 included an $11.1 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge related to the company's convertible debt investment in a third-party and a $0.8 million non-cash impairment charge on the company's equity investment in a hospital-at-home company. The $16.1 million of unrealized losses in the first six months of 2025 included the $11.1 million non-cash credit-related impairment charge related to the company's convertible debt investment in a third-party and $5.0 million of non-cash impairment charges on the company's equity investment in a hospital-at-home company.
