Kelly Services(R) Reports Second Quarter 2016 Earnings and Announces Quarterly Dividend

TROY, MI --(Marketwired - August 10, 2016) -

Second Quarter Highlights

  • Total Revenue declines 0.7% (up 0.6% in constant currency)
  • Gross Profit up 3.7% (up 4.8% in constant currency); Gross Profit Rate up 70 basis points
  • Earnings per share of $0.23 (Adjusted EPS of $0.29) versus $0.18, a 28% increase
  • TS Kelly Asia Pacific Joint Venture completed, forming one of the region's largest workforce solutions providers

Kelly Services ( NASDAQ : KELYA ) ( NASDAQ : KELYB ), a global leader in providing workforce solutions, today announced results for the second quarter of 2016.

Carl T. Camden, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the second quarter of 2016 totaled $1.4 billion, a 0.7% decrease (a 0.6% increase on a constant currency basis) compared to the corresponding quarter of 2015.

Earnings from operations for the second quarter of 2016 totaled $9.9 million, compared to $11.5 million reported for the second quarter of 2015. Included in the results of operations in the second quarter of 2016 are restructuring charges of $3.4 million. Excluding the restructuring charges, earnings from operations were $13.3 million in the second quarter of 2016.

Diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2016 were $0.23 compared to $0.18 per share in the second quarter of 2015. Excluding restructuring charges, earnings per share were $0.29 in the second quarter of 2016.

Commenting on the second quarter, Camden stated, "We are pleased with Kelly's ability to deliver strategic growth, improve Gross Profit, and increase shareholder value in the second quarter. The finalization of our Joint Venture in APAC positions us for growth in staffing-related services while enabling us to accelerate investments in OCG, which remains a Kelly-owned entity." Referring to the apparent slow-down in U.S. staffing demand facing the workforce solutions industry in the second quarter, Camden commented, "Kelly responded quickly to flat top-line growth in the Americas by managing Gross Profit, adjusting our operating costs, and delivering solid leverage. We remain committed to increasing shareholder value by efficiently delivering the best workforce solutions for our customers around the world."

Kelly also reported that on August 9, its board of directors declared a dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend is payable September 2, 2016 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 23, 2016.

KELLY SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the restructuring charges is useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2016 financial performance and increases comparability. Specifically, Management believes that removing the impact of restructuring charges allows for a more meaningful comparison of current period operating performance with the operating results of prior periods. These non-GAAP measures may have limitations as analytical tools because they exclude items which can have a material impact on cash flow and earnings per share. As a result, Management considers these measures, along with reported results, when it reviews and evaluates the Company's financial performance. Management believes that these measures provide greater transparency to investors and provide insight into how Management is evaluating the Company's financial performance. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(1) Restructuring charges in 2016 include costs related to actions during the second quarter in the Americas and EMEA designed to increase operational efficiency and align our staffing operations with opportunities for growth within their markets.
