MILWAUKEE, July 20, 2018 -- ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) today reported that net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were $143.4 million, or $2.17 per diluted share compared to net earnings of $117.0 million, or $1.72 per diluted share in the prior year period.

ManpowerGroup Chairman & CEO Jonas Prising said, “Our solid second quarter results contributed to a good first half of 2018. Demand for our innovative workforce solutions remains strong and with our market leading global footprint this environment should provide us with opportunities for profitable growth”.
“We anticipate the third quarter diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $2.37 to $2.45, which includes an estimated unfavorable currency impact of 5 cents,” Prising stated.
