MANPOWER INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 AND 2002
(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


(1) Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements included in our 2002 Annual Report to Shareholders.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for
the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Stock Compensation Plans

We account for all of our fixed stock option plans and our 1990 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee
compensation expense related to stock options is reflected in Net earnings as
all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market
value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table
illustrates the effect on Net earnings and Net earnings per share if we had
applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 and 148 to
stock-based employee compensation.

On April 29, 2003, our shareholders approved the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan of
Manpower Inc. Under this plan, all of our employees and directors are eligible
to receive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and
deferred stock grants. There are 4.5 million shares of common stock available
for grant under this plan. Grants under this plan are determined on a basis
consistent with that of previously existing plans. We anticipate that grants to
directors will be modified to allow for deferred stock grants, rather than stock
options, in lieu of certain cash compensation. Deferred stock grants may be
settled in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof. We will
no longer make any grants under our 1994 Executive Stock Option and Restricted
Stock Plan.

During the second quarter of 2003, we recognized $.2 of expense, net of tax,
related to restricted stock grants.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

During April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133
on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which amends and clarifies
financial accounting and reporting for certain derivative instruments. We do not
anticipate the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements, as we are not currently a party to derivative
financial instruments addressed by this standard.

During May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," which
establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. We do
not anticipate the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements, as we are not currently a party to such
instruments addressed by this standard.

(2) Income Taxes

We provided for income taxes during the first six months of 2003 at a rate of
39.0%, based on our current estimate of the annual effective tax rate. This rate
is higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the
impact of higher foreign income tax rates, valuation reserves recorded against
foreign net operating losses and U.S. taxes on foreign earnings. For the year
ended December 31, 2002 we provided for income taxes at a rate of 39.8%. The
estimated effective tax rate for 2003 is lower than the 2002 rate due to
estimated changes in the mix of taxable income between countries.

(3) Earnings Per Share

The calculations of Net earnings per share and Net earnings per share -- diluted
are as follows:



3 MONTHS ENDED 6 MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, JUNE 30,
------------------------ ------------------------
2003 2002 2003 2002
----------- ----------- ----------- -----------

Net earnings per share:
Net earnings available to common shareholders $ 29.1 $ 25.7 $ 44.0 $ 32.6
Weighted average common shares outstanding 77.5 75.9 77.4 76.0
----------- ----------- ----------- -----------
$ .38 $ .34 $ .57 $ .43
=========== =========== =========== ===========


Net earnings per share -- diluted:
Net earnings available to common shareholders $ 29.1 $ 25.7 $ 44.0 $ 32.6

Weighted average common shares outstanding 77.5 75.9 77.4 76.0
Effect of dilutive stock options .8 1.6 .8 1.6
----------- ----------- ----------- -----------
78.3 77.5 78.2 77.6
----------- ----------- ----------- -----------
$ .37 $ .33 $ .56 $ .42
=========== =========== =========== ===========




The calculation of Net earnings per share -- diluted does not include certain
stock option grants because the exercise price for these options is greater than
the average market price of the common shares during the period. There were
683,000 and 12,000 of such shares excluded from the calculation for the three
months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 2,405,000 and 50,000 of
such shares excluded from the calculation for the six months ended June 30, 2003
and 2002, respectively.

In addition, there were 6.1 million shares of common stock that were
contingently issuable under our Debentures for both the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Such shares are excluded from the
calculation of Net earnings per share -- diluted based upon the terms of the
Debentures and our intent to settle any potential "put" of the Debentures in
cash. In the event of a significant change in the economic environment, we may
choose to settle a future "put" with common stock, which would have a dilutive
effect on existing shareholders.

The contingently issuable shares under the Debentures will be included in the
calculation of Net earnings per share -- diluted when the shares become issuable
under the conversion feature of the Debentures. This will occur when the average
share price is 110% of the accreted value of the Debentures at the beginning of
the conversion period, as defined by the agreement or in certain other
circumstances. Given the accreted value of the Debentures at the beginning of
the current conversion period, the average share price, during the period, will
have to be approximately $46 per share for the shares to be issuable.

(4) Accounts Receivable Securitization

During March 2003, our Japanese subsidiary had transferred their interests in
Yen3,006.0 ($25.5) of their accounts receivable under a securitization agreement
and during June 2003, they terminated this agreement and replaced it with an
overdraft facility. Upon termination, we were required to repay the entire
amount initially transferred, which is included in repayments of long-term debt
on our consolidated statements of cash flows for 2003.

During July 2003, we amended our Receivables Facility in the United States to
expire in July 2004. All other terms remain unchanged and as of June 30, 2003
there were no amounts advanced under this agreement.

(5) Derivative Financial Instruments




9






During March 2003, we repaid Yen4,000.0 (approximately $34.0) that was
outstanding under our Five-year Facility as of December 31, 2002. In connection
with this repayment, we also terminated our interest rate swap agreement with a
notional value of Yen4,000.0, which was scheduled to expire in June 2003, for a
nominal amount.

(6) Shareholders' Equity

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of the following:

Item 2 -- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Operating Results - Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

Revenues from services increased 15.8% to $3,013.4 million for the second
quarter of 2003 from the same period in 2002. Revenues were favorably impacted
by changes in foreign currency exchange rates during the period due to the
weakening of the U.S. Dollar relative to the currencies in most of our non-U.S.
markets. In constant currency, revenues increased 1.0%. Revenue growth in the
second quarter of 2003 attributable to acquisitions was approximately $5 million
or .2% of revenue. Systemwide sales were $3,301.6 million and $2,892.1 million
for the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively. (See Financial Measures
on pages 21 and 22 for further information on constant currency and Systemwide
sales.)

Gross profit increased 11.6% to $521.5 million for the second quarter of 2003.
Gross profit margin was 17.3%, a decrease of 70 basis points (.7%) from the
second quarter of 2002. This decrease was attributable to changes in the
geographical mix of business, payroll tax and social cost increases, a change in
the service mix of business and pricing pressures experienced throughout the
world. Gross profit growth from acquisitions was minimal and had no impact on
gross profit margin.

Selling and administrative expenses increased 11.7% from the second quarter of
2002, to $464.5 million in the second quarter of 2003. This increase is
primarily due to the changes in exchange rates, as these expenses decreased 1.6%
on a constant currency basis. As a percent of revenues, Selling and
administrative expenses were 15.4% in the second quarter of 2003 compared to
16.0% in the second quarter of 2002. The improvement in this ratio is a result
of careful expense management in conjunction with growing revenues.

Operating profit increased 10.1% for the second quarter of 2003 compared to 2002
resulting in an operating profit margin of 1.9% in 2003 compared to 2.0% in
2002. On a constant currency basis, Operating profit decreased 8.5%.
Acquisitions did not have an impact on Operating profit.

Interest and other expense decreased $.4 million from the second quarter of 2002
to $9.2 million in the second quarter of 2003. Net interest expense decreased
$.1 million in the quarter to $8.3 million. Translation gains were $.3 million
in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $.9 million in the second quarter of
2002. Miscellaneous expenses, net decreased $.9 million and consist of bank fees
and other non-operating expenses and income.

We provided for income taxes during the second quarter of 2003 at a rate of
39.0%, based on our current estimate of the annual effective tax rate. This rate
is higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the
impact of higher foreign income tax rates, valuation reserves recorded against
foreign net operating losses and U.S. taxes on foreign earnings. For the year
ended December 31, 2002 we provided for income taxes at a rate of 39.8%. The
estimated effective tax rate for 2003 is lower than the 2002 rate due to
estimated changes in the mix of taxable income between countries.

Net earnings per share, on a diluted basis, increased 12.1% to $.37 in the
second quarter of 2003 compared to $.33 in the second quarter of 2002. In
constant currency, Net earnings per share, on a diluted basis, decreased 9.1%.
The change in foreign currency exchange rates positively impacted Net earnings
per share, on a diluted basis, by approximately $.07 in the second quarter of
2003.

Segment Operating Results

United States

The United States experienced an increase in revenues of 1.9% for the second
quarter of 2003 compared to 2002, reflecting a decline in revenue growth from
the first quarter growth rate of 8.1%. Growth in the light industrial sector
slowed during the quarter (an increase of 1% in the second quarter compared to
growth of 13% in the first quarter), while we saw improvement in the office
sector and continued growth in the professional sector of 7% for the quarter.
Franchise acquisitions added 1.1% to revenue growth in the United States for the
quarter. Revenues for the first half of 2003 increased 4.8% from the same period
in the prior year (3.5% excluding franchise acquisitions). Systemwide sales were
$727.4 million and $724.3 million for the first quarter of 2003 and 2002,
respectively, and $1,415.3 million and $1,378.3 million for the first half of
2003 and 2002, respectively. (See page 22 for further information on Systemwide
sales in the United States.)

Operating unit profit ("OUP") margin in the United States was 2.1% and 1.7% for
the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 1.4% and .4% for the
first half of 2003 and 2002, respectively. The year-over-year improvement in OUP
margin during 2003 was due to the leveraging impact of the increased revenue
levels and the continued cost control efforts. The impact of the cost control
efforts was partially offset by a decrease in gross profit margin, which
resulted from higher state unemployment taxes and a shift in business mix.

France

In France, revenues increased 24.3% (.6% in Euro) during the second quarter of
2003 compared to 2002. This quarterly growth rate, in Euro, reflects a slowing
demand for services experienced throughout the quarter. It represents a decrease
from the growth rate of 1.6% experienced during the fist quarter of 2003 and
4.3% during the fourth quarter of 2002.

During the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, OUP margin in France was 3.6% and
3.5%, respectively. The OUP margin was 3.2% for the first half of 2003 and 2002.
Our continued cost control efforts offset a slight decline in the year-over-year
gross profit margin.

EMEA

In EMEA, which represents operations throughout Europe, the Middle East and
Africa (excluding France), revenues increased 14.6%, but declined 2.7% in
constant currency for the second quarter of 2003 compared to 2002. For the first
half of 2003, revenues for EMEA were 15.3% above prior year levels (down 2.1% in
constant currency). Positive year-over-year revenue variances were experienced
in Germany, Italy, Spain and our Brook Street operations, while negative
variances were experienced in The Netherlands, the Nordics and our Manpower UK
operations due to continued weakening in those markets.

OUP margin for EMEA was .8% and 2.0% for the second quarter of 2003 and 2002,
respectively, and .9% and 1.7% for the first half of 2003 and 2002,
respectively. The decline in OUP margin was primarily the result of decreased
gross profit margins due to changes in both the geographical and service mix of
business, higher social costs, and pricing pressures in The Netherlands.


13









Other Operations

Revenues of Other Operations increased 14.6% (9.5% in constant currency) during
the second quarter of 2003 compared to 2002. For the first six months of 2003,
revenue increased 15.0% from 2002 (11.1% in constant currency). The majority of
markets in this segment experienced revenue increases, in constant currency,
during the second quarter and the first half of 2003.

The OUP margin for Other Operations in the second quarter of 2003 and 2002 was
1.6% and .4%, respectively, and 1.1% and 0% in the first half of 2003 and 2002,
respectively. This improvement is the result of higher gross profit margins and
good cost control, particularly in Japan.

Operating Results - Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

Revenues from services increased 16.5% to $5,692.1 million for the first half of
2003 from the same period in 2002. Revenues were favorably impacted by changes
in foreign currency exchange rates during the period due to the weakening of the
U.S. Dollar relative to the currencies in most of our non-U.S. markets. In
constant currency, revenues increased 2.1%. Revenue growth in the first half of
2003 attributable to acquisitions was approximately $13 million or .3% of
revenues. Systemwide sales were $6,241.0 million and $5,432.1 million for the
first half of 2003 and 2002, respectively. (See Financial Measures on pages 21
and 22 for further information on constant currency and Systemwide sales.)

Gross profit increased 11.9% to $987.5 million for the first half of 2003. Gross
profit margin was 17.3%, a decrease of 70 basis points (.7%) from the first half
of 2002. This decrease was attributable to changes in the geographical mix of
business, payroll tax and social cost increases, a change in the service mix of
business and pricing pressures experienced throughout the world. Gross profit
growth from acquisitions was approximately $1.5 million, which had no impact on
gross profit margin.

Selling and administrative expenses increased 10.5% from the first half of 2002,
to $897.5 million in the first half of 2003. This increase is primarily due to
the changes in exchange rates, as these expenses decreased 2.4% on a constant
currency basis. As a percent of revenues, Selling and administrative expenses
were 15.8% in the first half of 2003 compared to 16.6% in the first half of
2002. The improvement is a result of careful expense management in conjunction
with growing revenues.

Operating profit increased 27.7% for the first half of 2003 compared to 2002
resulting in an operating profit margin of 1.6% in 2003 compared to 1.4% in
2002. The increased Operating profit level primarily reflects the improved
leveraging of the business experienced during the first quarter of 2003. On a
constant currency basis, Operating profit increased 4.1%. Acquisitions did not
have an impact on Operating profit.

Interest and other expense increased $.2 million from the first half of 2002 to
$17.8 million in the first half of 2003. Net interest expense increased $.2
million in 2003 to $15.9 million. Translation gains were $1.5 million in the
first half of 2003 compared to $.7 million in the first half of 2002.
Miscellaneous expenses, net increased $.8 million in the first half of 2003
compared to 2002 and consist of bank fees and other non-operating expenses and
income.

We provided for income taxes during the first six months of 2003 at a rate of
39.0%, based on our current estimate of the annual effective tax rate. This rate
is higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the
impact of higher foreign income tax rates, valuation reserves recorded against
foreign net operating losses and U.S. taxes on foreign earnings. For the year
ended December 31, 2002 we provided for income taxes at a rate of 39.8%. The
estimated effective tax rate for 2003 is lower than the 2002 rate due to
estimated changes in the mix of taxable income between countries.




14








Net earnings per share, on a diluted basis, increased 33.3% to $.56 in the first
six months of 2003 compared to $.42 in 2002. In constant currency, Net earnings
per share, on a diluted basis, increased 2.4%. The change in foreign currency
exchange rates positively impacted Net earnings per share, on a diluted basis,
by approximately $.13 in 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities was $17.7 million in the first half of
2003 compared to $38.1 million for the same period in 2002. This decrease mainly
reflects the changes in operating assets and liabilities due primarily to the
timing of vendor and payroll-related payments offset by a one-day improvement in
our year-over-year consolidated days sales outstanding ("DSO").

Capital expenditures were $23.8 million in the first half of 2003 compared to
$31.0 million during the first half of 2002. These expenditures are primarily
comprised of purchases of computer equipment, office furniture and other costs
related to office openings and refurbishments, as well as capitalized software
costs.

Net cash used to repay borrowings was $44.5 million in the first half of 2003
compared to $17.3 million of net cash provided by borrowings during the first
half of 2002.

We have aggregate commitments related to debt repayments, operating leases and
other commitments of $1,245.9 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $1,235.5
million as of December 31, 2002. This increase primarily reflects the impact of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates since December 31, 2002.

We also have entered into guarantee contracts and stand-by letters of credit
that total approximately $116.5 million and $111.1 million as of June 30, 2003
and December 31, 2002, respectively ($44.3 million and $39.4 million for
guarantees, respectively, and $72.2 million and $71.7 million for stand-by
letters of credit, respectively). The guarantees primarily relate to government
requirements for operating a temporary service company in certain countries,
operating leases, bank accounts and indebtedness. The stand-by letters of credit
relate to workers' compensation, operating leases and indebtedness. If certain
conditions were met under these arrangements, we would be required to satisfy
our obligation in cash. Due to the nature of these arrangements and our
historical experience, we do not expect to make any significant payments under
these arrangements. Therefore, they have been excluded from our aggregate
commitments discussed above.

Accounts receivable increased to $2,437.8 million as of June 30, 2003 from
$2,214.2 million as of December 31, 2002. This increase is due to changes in
foreign currency exchange rates and higher seasonal business volume. At December
31, 2002 exchange rates, the June 30, 2003 balance would have been approximately
$155.0 million less than reported.

During March 2003, our Japanese subsidiary had transferred their interests in
Yen3,006.0 million ($25.5 million) of their accounts receivable under a
securitization agreement and during June 2003, they terminated this agreement
and replaced it with an overdraft facility. Upon termination, we were required
to repay the entire amount initially transferred, which is included in
repayments of long-term debt on our consolidated statements of cash flows for
2003.

During July 2003, we amended our Receivables Facility in the United States to
expire in July 2004. All other terms remain unchanged and as of June 30, 2003
there were no amounts advanced under this agreement. Currently, there is $200.0
million eligible to be advanced to us under this agreement.



15








During March 2003, we repaid Yen4,000.0 million (approximately $34.0 million)
that was outstanding under our Five-year Facility as of December 31, 2002. In
connection with this repayment, we also terminated our interest rate swap
agreement with a notional value of Yen4,000.0 million, which was scheduled to
expire in June 2003, for a nominal amount.

As of June 30, 2003, we had borrowings of $149.8 million and letters of credit
of $72.2 million outstanding under our Five-year Facility, and there were no
borrowings outstanding under our U.S. commercial paper program. Additional
borrowings of $510.3 million were available to us under our Five-year Facility
and 364-day Facility as of June 30, 2003.

We also maintain separate lines of credit with foreign financial institutions to
meet working capital needs of our foreign operations. As of June 30, 2003, such
lines totaled $229.8 million, of which $220.2 million was unused.

Certain of our debt agreements require, among other things, that we comply with
a Debt-to-EBITDA ratio of less than 3.25 to 1 and a fixed charge ratio of
greater than 2.00 to 1. As defined in the agreements, we had a Debt-to-EBITDA
ratio of 2.72 to 1 and a fixed charge ratio of 2.38 to 1 as of June 30, 2003.
Based upon current forecasts, we expect to be in compliance with these covenants
throughout 2003.

Goodwill Impairment

In connection with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," we are
required to perform goodwill impairment reviews, at least annually, using a
fair-value-based approach. The majority of our goodwill results from our
acquisitions of Elan and Jefferson Wells, as well as the development of our
Empower operations.

We primarily use a discounted cash flow analysis in our impairment reviews to
estimate fair value. Significant assumptions used in this analysis include:
expected future revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, and working
capital levels; a discount rate; and a terminal value multiple. The revenue
growth rates and operating unit profit margins are based on our expectation of
future results.

Our operating results, including those of our more specialized operations,
continue to be negatively impacted by the worldwide economic conditions, and
during the first six months of 2003, the results of certain of our specialized
operations were below the level forecasted during our most recent impairment
review. During the third quarter, we will perform our annual impairment review
for 2003.

Lower earnings levels, or changes to other assumptions, could significantly
impact our estimate of the fair value of our reporting units. Such a change
could result in a goodwill impairment charge, which could have a significant
impact on the reportable segments that include the related acquisitions and our
consolidated financial statements.

Legal Regulations

During 2002, the French government passed legislation related to various social
programs, including the 35-hour workweek, minimum working wage and social
contribution subsidies. At the time of filing our 2002 Annual Report to
Shareholders it was difficult to estimate the impact of these changes on our
future financial results. We estimated at the time that the maximum possible
impact of the legislation would be a reduction of euro 10 million in gross
profit in each of the second half of 2003 and the first half of 2004.

The rules surrounding these social programs have now been finalized and we do
not anticipate that there will be a material impact on our financial results in
either 2003 or 2004.

In 2002, the European Commission released proposed legislation, the Agency
Workers Directive ("AWD"), aimed at improving the quality of temporary staffing
work through a principle of

16



non-discrimination between temporary staff and permanent employees. The AWD is
no longer being discussed in the European Parliament, and it is not expected to
be passed in its current form, if at all. Given the uncertainty surrounding the
AWD, we cannot currently estimate the impact, if any, on the future results of
our European operations or our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

During April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133
on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which amends and clarifies
financial accounting and reporting for certain derivative instruments. We do not
anticipate the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements, as we are not currently a party to derivative
financial instruments addressed by this standard.

During May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," which
establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. We do
not anticipate the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements, as we are not currently a party to such
instruments addressed by this standard.

Item 3 -- Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain disclosures about market
risks affecting us. There have been no material changes to the information
provided which would require additional disclosures as of the date of this
filing, except for the termination of our interest rate swap agreement with a
notional value of Yen4,000.0 million that was previously identified.




17









Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed by
us under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the SEC's rules and forms. We carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on
that evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
identified in connection with the evaluation discussed above that occurred
during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

FINANCIAL MEASURES

Constant Currency

Changes in our revenues and operating profits include the impact of changes in
foreign currency exchange rates. We provide "constant currency" calculations in
this Quarterly Report to remove this impact. We typically express year-over-year
variances that are calculated in constant currency as a percentage.

When we use the term "constant currency," it means that we have translated
financial data for a period into U.S. Dollars using the same foreign currency
exchange rates that we used to translate financial data for the previous period.
We believe that this calculation is a useful measure, indicating the actual
growth of our operations. Earnings from our subsidiaries are rarely repatriated
to the United States, and we typically do not incur significant gains or losses
on foreign currency transactions with our subsidiaries, therefore changes in
foreign currency exchange rates generally impact only reported earnings and not
our actual cash flow or economic condition.

Systemwide Sales

Systemwide sales represents revenues from our branch offices plus the sales
activity of locations operating under a franchise agreement with us. We consider
Systemwide sales to be important because it is a measure of the total market
share of all entities operating under our various brands. In the United States,
Systemwide sales relates to entities operating under the Manpower brand.
Calculations of Systemwide sales on a consolidated basis and for the United
States are provided below.
