Kelly Reports Second-Quarter 2022 Earnings

KELYA, KELYB
  • Q2 revenue up 0.7% from a year ago; 2.7% in constant currency
  • Q2 operating earnings of $8.2 million and earnings per share of $0.06 down from a year ago primarily due to a non-cash impairment charge related to our operations in Russia
  • Adjusted operating earnings of $22.3 million; up 63% from a year ago
  • Completed the acquisition of Pediatric Therapeutic Services in May to extend our leading position in K-12 education

TROY, Mich., Aug. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Kelly (Nasdaq: KELYA, KELYB), a leading specialty talent solutions provider, today announced results for the second quarter of 2022.

(PRNewsfoto/Kelly Services, Inc.)

Peter Quigley, president and chief executive officer, announced revenue for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $1.3 billion, a 0.7% increase, or 2.7% in constant currency, compared to the corresponding quarter of 2021. Revenue improved year-over-year in the quarter reflecting increased customer demand compared to the COVID-19-impacted prior year period, as well as the impact of the recent acquisitions of RocketPower, a recruitment process outsourcing firm, and Pediatric Therapeutic Services, a specialty firm providing in-school therapy services.

Earnings from operations in the second quarter of 2022 totaled $8.2 million, compared to $13.7 million reported in the second quarter of 2021. Earnings in the second quarter of 2022 include an asset impairment charge related to our decision to transition our business in Russia and a gain on sale of assets related to the disposition of under-utilized real property located in the United States. Excluding those items, adjusted earnings from operations were $22.3 million compared to $13.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. Earnings improved as a result of revenue growth combined with structural improvement in gross profit rate and expense leverage.

Earnings per share in the second quarter of 2022 were $0.06 compared to earnings per share of $0.60 in the second quarter of 2021. Included in the earnings per share in the second quarter of 2022 is a $0.48 per share asset impairment charge, net of tax, related to our decision to transition our business in Russia and an $0.08 per share gain on sale of assets, net of tax, related to the disposition of under-utilized real property located in the United States. Included in the second quarter of 2021 is earnings per share of $0.11 gain, net of tax, related to non-cash gains, net of tax, on Persol Holding common shares. On an adjusted basis, earnings per share were $0.45 in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $0.49 in the corresponding quarter of 2021. Adjusted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2022 declined as a result of higher 2022 tax expense compared to the same period in 2021.

"We saw solid demand for Kelly's specialties in the second quarter and, importantly, we are successfully translating revenue into strong gross profit growth. We drove significant improvement in our gross profit rate year over year, due to our continued positive shift in business mix toward higher-margin products and specialties boosted by our specialty acquisitions," said Quigley. "We have significant capital available to enable growth, and we are putting that capital to work to drive shareholder value. While there is some economic uncertainty in the second half of the year, we are confident that our focused and well-capitalized specialization strategy will continue to deliver value in 2022 and beyond."

Kelly also reported that on August 10, its board of directors declared a dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend is payable on September 7, 2022 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 24, 2022.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the 2022 sale of the Persol Holdings investment, the 2022 and 2021 gains and losses on the fair value changes of the investment in Persol Holdings, the 2022 losses on foreign currency matters, the 2022 gains on sale of assets and the impairment of assets held for sale, are useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2022 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. 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.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA Margin (percent of total GAAP revenue) which Management believes is useful to compare operating performance compared to prior periods and uses it in conjunction with GAAP measures to assess performance. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be consistent with similarly titled measures of other companies and should be used in conjunction with GAAP measurements.

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) In 2022, the loss on the investment in Persol Holdings represents the change in fair value up until the date of the sale of the investment on February 15, 2022 as well as the loss on the sale of the investment during the period presented and the related tax benefit. In 2021, the gain on the investment in Persol Holdings represents the change in fair value of the investment during the period presented and the related tax expense.

(2) In 2022, the loss on foreign currency matters includes a $20.4 million loss on currency translation resulting from the substantially complete liquidation of the Company's Japan entity, partially offset by a $5.5 million foreign exchange gain on the Japan entity's USD-denominated cash balance. The foreign exchange gain is included in other (income) expense, net in the EBITDA calculation.

(3) Gain on sale of assets in 2022 is related to the sale of under-utilized real property in the second quarter of 2022 and other real property sold in the first quarter of 2022.

(4) Impairment of assets held for sale represents the write-down of the net assets of the Russian operations that are classified as held for sale as of the second quarter of 2022.
