## Exhibit 99.3

![](jobpressreleasefinal2026001.jpg)

Star Equity Issues Statement on GEE Group's Lack of Engagement CEO and Board Ignore Star Equity's Proposal to Engage in Merger Discussions Old Greenwich, CT – January 22, 2026 – Star Equity Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: STRR) ("Star Equity", "we", "our"), a 5.4% stockholder of GEE Group, Inc. (NYSE American: JOB) ("GEE Group" or "JOB") via its Investments Division, makes public today a leƩer sent to GEE Group suggesƟng the two companies begin discussions on a potenƟal merger (the "Proposal"), subject to execuƟng an NDA and further due diligence. Thus far, the Proposal has received no response from GEE Group despite our repeated outreach through mulƟple delivery methods. We have yet to obtain even an acknowledgement of receipt from anyone at GEE Group regarding our Proposal. Specifically, we have sent the Proposal as follows: - January 6, 2026: via email to GEE Group's CEO, Mr. Derek Dewan. - January 12, 2026: via overnight delivery to GEE Group's CEO, Mr. Derek Dewan with a signed delivery receipt received on January 13, 2026. - January 15, 2026: via email to two JOB board members, David Sandberg and Randy Waterfield. THE RATIONALE OF OUR PROPOSAL 1. JOB Should Become a Part of a Larger EnƟty Instead of ConƟnuing Its "Go It Alone" Strategy We believe strongly that becoming part of a larger enƟty is the best way to increase value for GEE Group's long-suffering stockholders. Remaining a very small public company would be a poor outcome for JOB stockholders due to GEE Group's high SG&A expenses, including public company costs, as a percentage of revenue. A combinaƟon with Star Equity would immediately eliminate the need for duplicaƟve public company costs and create potenƟal for future cost-saving synergies and other performance enhancing benefits. Furthermore, in light of the poor performance of previous acquisiƟons by GEE Group, we believe JOB should refrain from pursuing any addiƟonal acquisiƟons. In short, GEE Group wants to be a buyer, but it should be a seller. 2. JOB's Stock Price Level Signals Market Concern over Financial Performance, Capital AllocaƟon, and Cash Management JOB's revenue in FY 2025 was $96.5 million, represenƟng a 41.6% decline from the peak level reached in FY 2022 and a 9.8% decline compared to FY 2024. In addiƟon, JOB reported net losses totaling $58.8 million over the last two years combined, including $36.2 million from goodwill impairment charges, a sign of overpaying for previous acquisiƟons. Given the significant and conƟnuing decline in revenue and massive deterioraƟon in profitability, there is a tangible risk going forward that JOB will further erode its cash balance through the conƟnuaƟon of corporate overhead expenses, public company costs, and compensaƟon for its management and board, not to menƟon the significant risk of JOB doing diluƟve and misguided acquisiƟons.

![](jobpressreleasefinal2026002.jpg)

JOB's prolonged stock price underperformance displays a clear signal that the market has lost confidence in GEE Group's financial and operaƟng performance and its approach to capital allocaƟon and cash management. Since April 2025, JOB's common shares have traded close to its cash per share, and the stock price has declined almost 92% from the level reached 5 years ago. Despite JOB's massive decline in stock price, on its Q4 2025 earnings call on December 18, 2025, Mr. Dewan stated that GEE Group will not pursue share repurchases, ciƟng, instead, a preference for acquisiƟons. At the same Ɵme, Mr. Dewan acknowledged that private staffing company acquisiƟons typically transact at mulƟples of 6x-10x EBITDA – a valuaƟon range that would be meaningfully destrucƟve to JOB stockholder value. We believe JOB's low stock price reflects the market's senƟment on GEE Group's strategy of pursuing acquisiƟons at high mulƟples and demonstrates that stockholders are quesƟoning whether capital is being stewarded with appropriate discipline and whether the board and management are truly commiƩed to enhancing shareholder value. 3. Star Equity's Proposal Would Significantly Benefit JOB Stockholders We believe Star Equity would be an excellent merger partner for GEE Group because the combinaƟon of the two companies would create significant value for both JOB and STRR stockholders through:  reducƟon of duplicaƟve public company and corporate overhead costs,  sharpened operaƟonal focus and efficiency for the operaƟng management team,  Star Equity management's significant experience in overseeing and invesƟng in professional services businesses, and  ample opportuniƟes for collaboraƟon with Star Equity's experienced business leaders. We strongly urge GEE Group's board to consider our Proposal and instruct GEE Group's management to engage in construcƟve discussions with Star Equity. About Star Equity Holdings, Inc.

company management teams. We also have deep experience assisting our portfolio companies in evaluating acquisitions, financings, and other important strategic decisions. 1. Valuation: Subject to further due diligence, we could be willing to pay a meaningful premium to the Company's 12/31/25 closing stock price of $0.1953. 2. Financing/ Sources & Uses of Funds: We expect to fund the transaction through a combination of cash on hand, debt, and equity securities. 3. Approvals: At the appropriate time, Star will seek Board approval to consummate the transaction, subject to satisfactory completion of due diligence, negotiation, and execution of the definitive agreement and related documents, and the satisfaction of customary conditions, and representations set forth in the definitive agreement. Star is unaware of any third-party approvals required to close the transaction. 4. Due Diligence: Star anticipates conducting standard due diligence comprised of a review of financial, operating, and legal information, as well as discussions with members of the Company's management team, customers, and significant third-party vendors. In this regard, we expect you to provide us assistance as is reasonably requested and give access at reasonable times to all things related to the business and assets of the Company. We are enthusiastic about proceeding with discussions with you and suggest we put a mutual NDA in place as the next logical step in our dialogue. If you have any questions about anything contained herein or our company, please contact me at (203) 489-9501. We look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Star Equity Holdings, Inc. Jeffrey E.

**Item 1. Security and Issuer**

**(a) Title of Class of Securities:**
Common Stock, no par value

**(b) Name of Issuer:**
GEE GROUP INC.

**(c) Address of Issuer's Principal Executive Offices:**
7751 BELFORT PARKWAY, SUITE 150, JACKSONVILLE, FL, 32256

**Item 4. Purpose of Transaction**

On January 22, 2026, Star Equity  (together with the other Reporting Persons, the "Shareholder Group") issued a press release (the "January 22 Press Release") expressing its belief that a merger with Star Equity would significantly benefit the Issuer stockholders and described its repeated outreach through multiple delivery methods to discuss the initial proposal (the "Proposal"), which signaled Star Equity's willingness, subject to further due diligence, to potentially pay a  premium to the Issuer's closing stock price the week before the Proposal was sent.  The January 22 Press Release also emphasized the Issuer's unresponsiveness to Star Equity and urged the Issuer to engage in constructive discussions with Star Equity.

In the January 22 Press Release, Star Equity advised that the Proposal requested the opportunity to explore a potential merger with the Issuer, which it believes would reduce the operating costs of the Issuer through the elimination of public company costs, and reduction of SG&A expenses. Star Equity also believes through its significant experience in overseeing professional service businesses, a potential merger with it would allow the Issuer to sharpen its operational focus on revenue generating efforts.  Star Equity also  expressed its belief that the Issuer should halt its pursuit of acquisitions, and that such a strategy has produced significant expense but little value for the Issuer's shareholders.

As more fully explained in the January 22 Press Release, Star Equity also took note of the decline in the Issuer's revenue, and net losses from continuing operations.

The foregoing description of the January 22 Press Release and Proposal are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the January 22 Press Release and Proposal, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and Exhibit 99.4, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons have engaged, and may continue to engage, in general discussions with the Issuer's Board and management team in evaluating all options to maximize shareholder value.

Other than as set forth herein,  no Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in additional communications with management and the board of the Issuer, engaging in discussions with shareholders of the Issuer and others about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons' investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, board structure (including Board composition) or operations of the Issuer, or potential business combinations or strategic alternatives involving the Issuer or certain of the Issuer's businesses or assets, including transactions in which the Reporting Persons may seek to participate and potentially engage in (including with other third parties), purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4.
