TROY, Mich., Aug. 07, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kelly Services (Nasdaq: KELYA) (Nasdaq: KELYB), a global leader in providing workforce solutions, today announced results for the second quarter of 2019.

George S. Corona, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the second quarter of 2019 totaled $1.4 billion, a 1.4% decrease, or 0.2% in constant currency, compared to the corresponding quarter of 2018. Second quarter 2019 results include the impact of the January 2019 acquisitions of NextGen and Global Technology Associates, providers of specialty engineering talent to the U.S. telecommunications industry. Excluding the recent acquisitions, adjusted revenue declined 4.2% in the second quarter, or 3.1% in constant currency.

Earnings from operations for the second quarter of 2019 totaled $34.8 million, compared to the $20.4 million reported for the second quarter of 2018. Included in earnings from operations in the second quarter of 2019 is a $12.3 million gain on sale of assets, primarily relating to the sale of unused land, and a $0.6 million benefit from the reversal of a portion of the restructuring charge taken in Q1 related to revitalizing the Americas Staffing delivery model. Excluding the gain on sale of assets, restructuring charges and recent acquisitions, adjusted earnings from operations totaled $17.7 million, down 14% compared to the same period in 2018.

Diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2019 were $2.12 compared to a loss per share of $0.40 in the second quarter of 2018. Included in earnings per share in the second quarter of 2019 is the favorable impact of $1.07 due to the non-cash after-tax gain on our investment in Persol Holdings common stock compared to a loss of $0.94 in the second quarter of 2018. Second quarter 2019 earnings per share also include the benefit of the gain on the sale of assets, net of tax of $0.23. Adjusted for the net of tax impact of restructuring charges, recent acquisitions, gains and losses on Persol Holdings common stock and the gain on sale of assets, diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.72 compared to $0.54 in the corresponding quarter of 2018.

“We’re pleased with the growth in gross profit, earnings and the improved free cash flow we delivered during the second quarter,” said Kelly President and CEO George Corona. “We continued to effectively manage costs and successfully integrated our two recent acquisitions that are outperforming expectations and making a strong impact on our business,” he said. “Our focus for the remainder of the year is on advancing our specialty talent solutions strategy to further accelerate the growth of our business.”

Kelly also reported that on August 7, its board of directors declared a dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend is payable August 30, 2019 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 20, 2019.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the 2019 and 2018 gains and losses on the investment in Persol Holdings, the 2019 restructuring charges, the 2019 acquisitions, and the 2019 gain on sale of assets are useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2019 financial performance and increases comparability. Specifically, Management believes that removing the impact of these items allows for a meaningful comparison of current period operating performance with the operating results of prior periods. Additionally, the Company does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle and the terms of each acquisition are unique and may vary significantly. Management also believes that such measures are used by those analyzing performance of companies in the staffing industry to compare current performance to prior periods and to assess future performance.

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) The gains on the investment in Persol Holdings represent the change in fair value of the investment during the period presented and the related tax expense.

(2) Restructuring charges in 2019 represent severance costs primarily related to U.S. branch-based staffing operations.

(3) NextGen and GTA were acquired on January 2, 2019, and were included in the reported results of operations of Americas Staffing and GTS segments, respectively, from the date of acquisition.

(4) Gain on sale of assets primarily represents the excess of the proceeds over the cost of an unused parcel of land located near the Company headquarters sold during the second quarter of 2019.
