TROY, MI (February 5, 2010) — Kelly Services, Inc., a world leader in workforce management services and human resources solutions, today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended January 3, 2010.
Carl T. Camden, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the fourth quarter of 2009 totaled $1.2 billion, a 7% decrease compared to the corresponding quarter in 2008. On a sequential basis, fourth quarter revenue increased 14%, compared to the third quarter in 2009. Revenue for the full year totaled $4.3 billion, a 22% decrease compared to the prior year. The fourth quarter included an extra week which adds approximately 4-5% to our quarterly comparisons and 1% to annual comparisons.
Losses from operations for the fourth quarter of 2009 totaled $13.0 million, compared to losses from operations of $83.7 million reported for the fourth quarter of 2008. Included in the results from operations for the fourth quarter of 2009 are restructuring charges of $13.4 million. The loss from operations in the fourth quarter of 2008 included impairment charges of $80.5 million and restructuring charges of $4.3 million. Excluding the impairment and restructuring charges, earnings from operations were $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $1.1 million in 2008.
Losses from operations for the full year of 2009 totaled $146.1 million compared to a loss of $70.3 million in 2008. The results for the full year 2009 include $53.1 million of impairment charges, $5.3 million of legal charges and $29.9 million of restructuring charges. The results for 2008 included $80.5 million of impairment charges, $22.5 million of legal charges and $6.5 million of restructuring charges.
Diluted losses per share from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2009 were $0.23 compared to fourth quarter 2008 losses of $2.55 per share. The restructuring charges totaled $0.29 per share in the fourth quarter of 2009. The impairment charges were $2.22 per share and the restructuring charges were $0.11 per share in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Diluted losses per share from continuing operations for the full year of 2009 were $3.01 compared to 2008 losses of $2.35 per share. The impairment charges totaled $1.43 per share, legal charges totaled $0.09 per share and restructuring charges totaled $0.69 per share in 2009. The impairment charges were $2.22 per share, legal charges were $0.40 per share and the restructuring charges were $0.15 per share in 2008.
Commenting on the fourth quarter results, Camden was optimistic. “We are very pleased that the improved revenue trends in our business, combined with our significant cost reduction initiatives allowed us to realize a small operating profit for the fourth quarter, excluding restructuring charges.”
Camden added that while 2009 has been a challenging year for the staffing industry, “Kelly has done an excellent job of re-shaping and strategically positioning the company to seize future growth opportunities and create value for our shareholders.
“We look forward to 2010, and will focus on maximizing profitability across all operations; accelerating growth of higher-margin Professional & Technical disciplines and outsourcing and consulting services; winning new business; and helping our customers manage their ever-changing workforce needs.”

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)
Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the impairment, restructuring and litigation charges is useful to understand the Company’s fiscal 2009 financial performance and increases comparability. Specifically, Management believes that excluding these items 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 represent global costs incurred in connection with the reduction in the number of permanent employees and the consolidation, sale or closure of branch locations. These costs include severance, lease terminations, asset write-offs and other miscellaneous costs.
(2) For 2009, asset impairment charges include adjustments to the value of goodwill for the Company’s Americas Commercial, EMEA PT and APAC Commercial reporting segments, and long-lived assets and intangible assets related to Japan and Europe. For 2008, asset impairment charges include adjustments to the value of goodwill for the Company’s EMEA Commercial segment, the Company’s investment in Tempstaff, and assets related to operations in the U.K.
