NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. B asis of Presentation and General Information Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Hackett Group , Inc. ("Hackett" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and include the Company's accounts and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries which the Company is required to consolidate. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of the dates and for the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 29, 2023, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on March 1, 2024. The consolidated results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2024 , are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the full fiscal year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Business Combination On September 16, 2024, the Company executed an agreement to a

Basis of Presentation and General Information (continued) Amount Useful Life Category (in thousands) (in years) Customer Relationships $ 2,500 5 Technology 200 2 Non-Compete 100 2 Total $ 2,800 The Company recognized $ 53 thousand of transactions costs related to the acquisition and no amortization was recorded in the three months ended September 27, 2024. The amounts recorded for certain assets and liabilities and related disclosures are preliminary in nature and are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained about their acquisition date fair values. Since the acquisition was only recently completed, the allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and will likely change in future periods as fair value estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are finalized, including those primarily related to working capital, property and equipment, intangible assets, and taxes. The final determination of the fair values will be completed within the one-year measurement period. Also, in connection with the acquisition, the Company and LeewayHertz 's founder are creating a joint venture whereby The Hackett Group will contribute its AI XPLR platform and LeewayHertz will contribute its ZBrain platform. The integration of AI XPLR and the ZBrain Gen A.I. orchestration solution will enable the joint venture to provide advanced and tailored Gen AI solutions to its clients. The joint venture is expected to be formed by the end of the Company's fiscal year 2024.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation and General Information (continued) Revenue Recognition The Company primarily generates its revenue from providing professional services to its clients. The Company also generates revenue from software sales, software maintenance and support and subscriptions to its executive and best practices advisory programs. A single contract could include one or multiple performance obligations. For those contracts that have multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company determines the standalone selling price based on the respective selling price of the individual elements when sold separately. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods and services provided are transferred to the Company's customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services using the following steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify the performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognize revenue as or when the Company satisfies the performance obligations. The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations for professional services over time as the related services are provided. The performance obligations related to software maintenance and support and subscriptions to its executive and best practice advisory programs are typically satisfied evenly over the course of the service period. Other performance obligations, such as software sales, are satisfied at a point in time. The Company generates revenue under four types of billing arrangements: fixed-fee; time-and-materials; executive and best practice advisory services; and software sales and software maintenance and support. In fixed-fee
