Q3 operating earnings of $18.2 million, down 3%
Q3 earnings per share of $0.58 compared to $2.06, or $0.44 on an adjusted basis, a 32% increase year-over-year on an adjusted basis.
    
TROY, MI (November 8, 2017) -- Kelly Services (Nasdaq: KELYA) (Nasdaq: KELYB), a global leader in providing workforce solutions, today announced results for the third quarter of 2017.

George S. Corona, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the third quarter of 2017 totaled $1.3 billion, a 6.5% increase, or 5.3% in constant currency, compared to the corresponding quarter of 2016.
    
Earnings from operations for the third quarter of 2017 totaled $18.2 million, compared to $18.8 million reported for the third quarter of 2016.     

Diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of 2017 were $0.58 compared to $2.06 per share in the third quarter of 2016. During the third quarter of 2016, Kelly transferred its APAC staffing operations to the TS Kelly Asia Pacific joint venture and recorded a pre-tax gain of $87.2 million. Kelly retains a 49% ownership interest in the joint venture. Diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of 2016 include the $1.62 after-tax gain on the APAC JV transaction. Excluding the after-tax gain from 2016 third quarter results, adjusted earnings per share were $0.44 in the third quarter of 2016.
 
Reflecting on the results, Corona stated, “Our third quarter performance confirmed that we are continuing to drive top-line growth and shareholder value, even as we invest in talent, technology, and solutions to accelerate our progress. Our acquisition of Teachers On Call and our decision to implement a digital talent platform confirm that we are not content to stop at short-term growth, and we are strategically positioning Kelly for long-term success as the world of work evolves.”
    
Kelly also reported that on November 7, its board of directors declared a dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend is payable December 7, 2017 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 22, 2017.

In conjunction with its third quarter earnings release, Kelly Services has published a financial presentation on the Investor Relations page of our public website and will host a conference call at 9:00 a.m. (ET) on November 8 to review the results and answer questions.

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

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the 2016 disposal of APAC businesses, 2017 and 2016 restructuring charges and the 2016 gain on investment of equity affiliate is useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2017 financial performance and increases comparability. Specifically, Management believes that removing the impact of 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) Disposal of APAC businesses represents the 2016 operational results of business contributed to TS Kelly Asia Pacific in the third quarter of 2016.

(2) Restructuring charges in 2017 represent costs related primarily to optimizing our GTS service delivery models to deliver expected cost savings. Restructuring charges in 2016 include costs related to actions taken in the Americas and International regions designed to increase operational efficiency and align our staffing operations with opportunities for growth within their markets.

(3) Gain on investment in equity affiliate represents the difference between the fair value and book value of amounts contributed by the Company to the investment in TS Kelly Asia Pacific in the third quarter of 2016.
