CHICAGO — February 21, 2011 — Huron Consulting Group Inc. (NASDAQ: HURN), a leading provider of business consulting services, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2010.

“Huron’s results for the quarter reflect solid performance in our Legal Consulting segment and in our Healthcare practice,” said James H. Roth, chief executive officer, Huron Consulting Group. “As our clients navigate the ongoing uncertainties in their businesses, they continue to rely on Huron expertise to help them achieve their market objectives. The strength of our client base and their continued reliance on Huron expertise is recognition of the competency of our personnel and our ability to provide value.”

“We have entered 2011 with optimism about the opportunities across all of our businesses. While the year is still young, we see encouraging signs in the marketplace. Within our Healthcare practice, our hospital clients continue to face challenges stemming from declining margins and uncertain implications associated with evolving healthcare reform. Within our Higher Education and Life Sciences practices, many institutions are facing similar financial pressures due to state and federal cutbacks. Following historical patterns, financial pressures and industry reform typically create opportunities for consulting firms. Our Legal Consulting practice, which had a very strong second half of 2010, is continuing to meet the demands of its global client base,” added Roth.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures^(6,10)

In evaluating the Company’s financial performance and outlook, management uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues, adjusted net income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP measures. Management believes that such measures, as supplements to operating income (loss), net income (loss) from continuing operations and diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations and other GAAP measures, are useful indicators for investors. These useful indicators can help readers gain a meaningful understanding of our core operating results and future prospects without the effect of non-cash or other one-time items and the Company’s ability to generate cash flows from operations that are available for taxes, capital expenditures, and to repay debt. 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.

Statements in this press release, including the information incorporated by reference herein, that are not historical in nature, including those concerning the Company’s current expectations about its future results, are “forward-looking” statements as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are identified by words such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “assumes,” “can,” “considers,” “could,” “intends,” “might,” “predicts,” “seeks,” “would,” “believes,” “estimates” or “continues”. Risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could impact the Company’s forward-looking statements relate, among other things, to (i) the restatement, (ii) the Securities and Exchange Commission investigation with respect to the restatement and the related purported private shareholder class action lawsuit and derivative lawsuits, (iii) the request by the

United States Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois for certain documents, (iv) final approval of the proposed settlement of the purported class action lawsuit related to the restatement, and (v) the share price of the shares of our common stock included as a portion of the settlement consideration at the time of issuance. In addition, these forward-looking statements reflect our current expectation about our future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements, including, without limitation, that our business continues to grow at the current expectations with respect to, among other factors, utilization rates, billing rates, and the number of revenue-generating professionals; that we are able to expand our service offerings; that we successfully integrate the businesses we acquire; that existing market conditions continue to trend upward; that we will receive final approval of the proposed settlement of the purported class action lawsuit related to the restatement; and the share price of the shares of our common stock included as a portion of the settlement consideration at the time of issuance. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, among others, those described under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our forthcoming 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the full year ended December 31, 2010 that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any anticipated results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
