Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended, including statements regarding the business of the Company and its industry generally, business strategy, anticipated future financial performance and prospects. All statements in this presentation other than those setting forth strictly historical information are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on the Company’s estimates, projections, beliefs and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance. The Company makes no assurances that estimates or projections of revenues, gross profit, gross margin, SG&A, EBITDA, adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA, adjusted non-GAAP operating income or loss, adjusted non-GAAP net earnings or loss, operating income or loss, net income or loss, operating cash flow, and other financial metrics will be achieved. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include actual demand for our services, our ability to attract and retain qualified recruiters, account managers and staffing consultants, our ability to remain competitive in obtaining and retaining staffing clients, the availability of qualified temporary and permanent placement personnel, our ability to manage growth including making and integrating strategic acquisitions, our ability to access capital to fund operations, working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions, satisfactory performance of our enterprise-wide information systems and such other risk factors detailed in our periodic filings with the SEC including Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and all other filings. The Company disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company discloses non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA because management uses these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate performance period over period, to analyze the underlying trends in its business, to establish operational goals, to provide additional measures of operating performance, including using the information for internal planning relating to the Company’s ability to meet debt service, make capital expenditures and provide working capital needs. In addition, the Company believes investors already use these non-GAAP measures to monitor the Company’s performance. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as net earnings or loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) adjusted for the non-cash changes in value of derivative liability related to the conversion option on its convertible debt, plus non-cash stock-based compensation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not terms defined by GAAP and, as a result, the Company’s measure of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures discussed above, however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to net income or net loss as reported for GAAP on the Consolidated Statements of Income, cash and cash flows as reported for GAAP on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and as reflected on the Form 10-Q filed for the respective periods. Reconciliation of non-GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is set forth in a supplemental schedule to this presentation.

US Staffing Industry Overview Large Fragmented Market: $132 billion domestic industry for combined temporary staffing and place and search for 2015, 6% growth over 2014 with over 32,000 US-based staffing companies providing services per Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) Forecast Estimated that 46% of U.S. businesses will use temp staffing in 2015, up from 43% in 2014 according to Career Builder Survey Temp penetration rate >2% (highest ever) of total nonfarm employment (BLS) Growing Market: US staffing industry will likely add the most jobs of any other industry over the next decade (SIA) In the 5 years post recession, US staffing firms created more new jobs than any other industry; approximately 10% of the net increase in nonfarm employment in 2014 consisted of temporary help/contract workers (SIA) Following the 1990-1991 and 2001 recessions, the net increase was < 5% (SIA) Higher share of job growth made up of temporary staffing since the 2007-2009 recession provides evidence of a secular shift toward the use of contingent labor
