INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On January 28, 2015, CTPartners Executive Search Inc. (the “Company”) announced a revision to its fourth quarter and full year 2014 preliminary earnings results previously announced on January 21, 2015. The revision is a result of a $1.7 million increase in the Company’s estimate of operating expenses for the fourth quarter primarily due to compensation expense associated with consultant performance bonuses. Estimated net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2014 remains at approximately $42 million and approximately $172 million for the full year.
For the fourth quarter, GAAP net loss attributable to the Company is now expected to be in the range of $1.3 million to $1.6 million, or $0.19 to $0.23 per share. Adjusted net loss for the fourth quarter of 2014 is expected to be in the range of $0.4 million to $0.6 million, or $0.07 to $0.09 per share.
For the full year 2014, GAAP net income is now expected to be in the range of $3.0 million to $3.3 million, or $0.38 to $0.43 per share. The Company expects adjusted net income, excluding after-tax non-operating items of $1.9 to $2.3 million, for the full year to be in the range of $5.2 million to $5.4 million, or $0.67 to $0.71 per share.
This unaudited preliminary financial information for the quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 is based upon our estimates and subject to completion of our financial closing procedures. Moreover, these data have been prepared solely on the basis of currently available information by, and are the responsibility of, management. This preliminary financial information is not a comprehensive statement of our financial results for this period, and our actual results may differ materially from these estimates due to the completion of our financial closing procedures, final adjustments, completion of the audit of our financial statements and other developments that may arise between now and the time the audit of our financial statements is completed. There can be no assurance that these estimates will be realized, and estimates are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are not within our control.
The information under this Item 2.02 is specifically incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-197876).
