Crawford & Company FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 2 Forward-looking statements –This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including statements about the future financial condition, results of operations and earnings outlook of Crawford & Company. Statements, both qualitative and quantitative, that are not statements of historical fact may be “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical experience or Crawford & Company’s present expectations. Accordingly, no one should place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. Crawford & Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise or not arise after the date the forward-looking statements are made. Results for any interim period presented herein are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any other future period. For further information regarding Crawford & Company, and the risks and uncertainties involved in forward-looking statements, please read Crawford & Company’s reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and available at www.sec.gov or in the Investor Relations section of Crawford & Company’s website at www.crawfordandcompany.com. –Crawford’s business is dependent, to a significant extent, on case volumes. The Company cannot predict the future trend of case volumes for a number of reasons, including the fact that the frequency and severity of weather-related claims and the occurrence of natural and man-made disasters, which are a significant source of claims and revenue for the Company, are generally not subject to accurate forecasting. Revenues Before Reimbursements (“Revenues”) –Revenues Before Reimbursements are referred to as “Revenues” in both consolidated and segment charts, bullets and tables throughout this presentation. Segment and Consolidated Operating Earnings –Under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” the Company has defined segment operating earnings as the primary measure used by the Company to evaluate the results of each of its four operating segments. Segment operating earnings exclude income taxes, interest expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, stock option expense, earnings or loss attributable to non-controlling interests, certain unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, and special charges and credits. Consolidated operating earnings is the total of segment operating earnings and certain unallocated and shared costs and credits. Earnings Per Share –In certain periods, the Company has paid a higher dividend on CRDA than on CRDB. This may result in a different earnings per share ("EPS") for each class of stock due to the two-class method of computing EPS as required by the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260 - "Earnings Per Share". The two-class method is an earnings allocation method under which EPS is calculated for each class of common stock considering both dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings as if all such earnings had been distributed during the period. Further references to EPS in this presentation will generally be only for CRDB, as that is the more dilutive measure. Non-GAAP Financial Information –For additional information about certain non-GAAP financial information presented herein, see the Appendix following this presentation. |

Crawford & Company 14 Consulting: Medical Management Medical costs are currently 60% of workers compensation cost and are estimated to be over 70% by 2016, increasing the importance of effective medical cost containment. Case managers proactively manage medical treatment in the rehabilitation process, enabling our clients’ employees to recover as quickly as possible in the most cost-effective manner. Healthcare reform is expected to increase activity in the healthcare market overall, which could negatively impact access to providers and slow return to work, which would increase medical and workers compensation cost and potentially increase claims frequency. Broadspire’s in-house integrated model provides services to mitigate increasing medical costs, ultimately decreasing our clients’ overall loss costs. This is a key element of Broadspire’s value proposition to clients. |

Crawford & Company Appendix |
Crawford & Company Non-GAAP Financial Information 28 Measurements of financial performance not calculated in accordance with GAAP should be considered as supplements to, and not substitutes for, performance measurements calculated or derived in accordance with GAAP. Any such measures are not necessarily comparable to other similarly-titled measurements employed by other companies. Reimbursements for Out-of-Pocket Expenses In the normal course of our business, our operating segments incur certain out-of-pocket expenses that are thereafter reimbursed by our clients. Under GAAP, these out-of-pocket expenses and associated reimbursements are required to be included when reporting expenses and revenues, respectively, in our consolidated results of operations. In this presentation, we do not believe it is informative to include the GAAP-required gross up of our revenues and expenses for these pass-through reimbursed expenses. The amounts of reimbursed expenses and related revenues offset each other in our consolidated results of operations with no impact to our net income or operating earnings (loss). Unless noted in this presentation, revenue and expense amounts exclude reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses. Segment and Consolidated Operating Earnings Operating earnings is the primary financial performance measure used by our senior management and chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to evaluate the financial performance of our Company and operating segments, and make resource allocation and certain compensation decisions. Management believes operating earnings is useful to others in that it allows them to evaluate segment and consolidated operating performance using the same criteria our management and chief operation decision maker use. Consolidated operating earnings (loss) represent segment earnings (loss) including certain unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, but before net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, special charges and credits, income taxes, and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Net Debt Net debt is computed as the sum of long-term debt, capital leases and short-term borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that net debt is useful because it provides investors with an estimate of what the Company’s debt would be if all available cash was used to pay down the debt of the Company. The measure is not meant to imply that management plans to use all available cash to pay down debt. |
