# Notes to Consolidated Financ ial Statements (Unaudited)

## For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
***(in millions, except share and per share data)***

***(1) <u>Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies</u>***

***Basis of Presentation***

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed.

***Allowance for Credit Losses***

We have an allowance for credit losses recorded as an estimate of the accounts receivable balance that may not be collected. This allowance is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis with consideration of historical write-off experience, age of receivables, market conditions, and a specific review for expected credit losses. Items that affect this balance mainly include provision for credit losses and the write-off of accounts receivable balances.

A rollforward of our allowance for credit losses is shown below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended <br>March 31, 2026** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Balance, December 31, 2025 | $74.1 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Provision for credit losses | 2.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Write-offs | (4.0) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Currency impact and other | (0.9) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Balance, March 31, 2026 | $71.7 |

---

***Leases***

We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. We recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with contract terms longer than 12 months. We classify the lease as a finance or operating lease which affects the recognition, measurement, and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows. Our Consolidated Balance Sheets present ROU assets, short-term lease liability and long-term lease liability as separate line items.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate. We determine our incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date using our unsecured borrowing rate, adjusted for collateralization, lease term, economic environment, currency and other factors. ROU assets are recognized at commencement date at the value of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms include options to renew or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

Lease expenses for operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

***Impairment of Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets***

In accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets, we perform an annual impairment test of goodwill at our reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets at our unit of account level during the third quarter, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting units below their carrying value. In the event the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value including goodwill, we record an impairment charge equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. Similarly, if the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value, we record an impairment charge for the difference.

We evaluate the recoverability of goodwill utilizing an income approach that estimates the fair value of the future discounted cash flows to which the goodwill relates. This approach reflects management's internal outlook of the reporting units, which is believed to be the best determination of value due to management's insight and experience with the reporting units. We evaluate the following assumptions which are used in our goodwill impairment tests: expected future revenue growth rates, operating unit profit (OUP) margins, working capital levels, discount rates, and terminal value revenue growth rate. We consider expected future revenue growth rates, OUP margins and discount rates to be the more significant assumptions. The expected future revenue growth rates and OUP margins are determined after taking into consideration historical performance, our assessment of future market potential, and expected future business performance conditions. We believe that the discounted cash flow model provides the most reasonable and meaningful estimate of fair value, consistent with how market participants would value our reporting units in an orderly transaction.

For indefinite-lived intangible assets, we use either an income approach or a relief-from-royalty method, depending on the nature of the asset. Significant assumptions include expected future revenue growth rates, profit margins, discount rates, and market participant assumptions.

Management closely monitors the financial and operating results relative to the assumptions used in our fair value estimates, as well as macroeconomic conditions and strategic initiatives that may impact the reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets. During the first quarter of 2026, in connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we assessed the changes in circumstances that occurred during the quarter to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit were below its carrying amount. The actual results of revenues and OUP margins for our key reporting units were consistent with the forecasted assumptions used for the near-term revenue growth and OUP margins utilized in the discounted cash flow models as of our valuation date. In evaluating triggering events, we considered external data points from analysts, market peers, our past history and experience, actual operating results, and near-term and long-term forecasts. Specifically, we observed largely stable activity levels across North America and Europe, with improving trends in certain reporting units, which management expects to continue through 2026. Based on the analysis performed, we concluded that the fair value of the reporting units continued to equal or exceed the carrying value and that no triggering events requiring an interim impairment test were identified.

We have recently had stable activity levels in certain markets, and in prior periods, we have experienced decreases in our operating results. There could be further decreases in our operating results, which may result in the recognition of goodwill impairments.

***Subsequent Event***

On April 30, 2026, the Company completed the sale of its Jefferson Wells U.S. business, a non-core finance and accounting business in the United States, which is part of our Americas segment, for a transaction value of $100 million. Net cash proceeds at closing approximated $88 million after working capital adjustments and other items. The transaction will result in a gain on sale, which will be finalized and recognized in the second quarter of 2026.

***(2) <u>Recent Accounting Standards</u>***

In November 2024, the FASB issued new guidance on disaggregation of income statement expenses. The guidance requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement, as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The guidance is effective for our 2027 annual financial statements and can be adopted prospectively or retrospectively. Adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued new guidance on internal-use software. The guidance removes the requirement to evaluate costs by development stage and allows capitalization to begin once management commits funding and completion is probable. The new standard is effective as of January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted. It may be adopted prospectively or retrospectively. Adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2025, the FASB issued new guidance on hedge accounting. The guidance provides additional requirements in five areas: similar risk assessment, treatment of Choose-Your-Rate debt, nonfinancial forecasted transactions, net written options, and dual-hedging foreign-currency-denominated debt. The guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2027. Adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

***(3) <u>Revenue Recognition</u>***

For client contracts where we recognize revenues over time, we recognize the amount that we have the right to invoice, which corresponds directly to the value provided to the client of our performance to date.

We do not disclose the amount of unsatisfied performance obligations for client contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and those client contracts for which we recognize revenues at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. We have other contracts with revenues expected to be recognized subsequent to March 31, 2026 related to remaining performance obligations, which are not material.

We record accounts receivable when our right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets primarily relate to our rights to consideration for services provided that they are conditional on satisfaction of future performance obligations. We record contract liabilities (deferred revenue) when payments are made or due prior to the related performance obligations being satisfied. The current portion of our contract liabilities is included in accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not have any material contract assets or long-term contract liabilities.

Our deferred revenue was $36.4 and $45.6 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by service types for each of our reportable segments. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for descriptions of revenue service types.

***(4) <u>Share-Based Compensation Plans</u>***

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized share-based compensation expense of $6.0 and $7.6, respectively. The expense relates to deferred stock units, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share units and a savings-related share option scheme in the United Kingdom. We recognize share-based compensation expense in selling and administrative expenses on a straight-line basis over the service period of each award. Consideration received from share-based awards was none for both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Our annual grant of share-based compensation generally takes place during the first quarter of each fiscal year. The number of equity-based shares granted to employees and members of our Board of Directors, as well as the weighted-average fair value per share, are as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Three Months Ended March 31,** | **For the Three Months Ended March 31,** | **For the Three Months Ended March 31,** | **For the Three Months Ended March 31,** |

***(5) <u>Acquisitions</u>***

From time to time, we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world, including franchises. Total cash consideration paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was none and $1.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

***(6) <u>Restructuring Costs</u>***

We recorded net restructuring costs of $15.9 and $15.8 during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively. Payments made from the restructuring reserve were $17.8 and $12.3 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We use our restructuring reserve for severance, office closures, office consolidations, and professional and other fees related to restructuring in multiple countries and territories. We expect a majority of the remaining $32.7 reserve will be paid by the end of 2026.

------

PART 1<br>

Changes in the restructuring reserve by reportable segment and Corporate are shown below:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Americas**<sup>(a)</sup> | **Southern<br>Europe**<sup>(b)</sup> | **Northern<br>Europe** | **APME** | **Corporate** | **Total** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Balance, December 31, 2025 | $2.7 | $8.0 | $24.2 | $0.2 | $— | $35.1 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Severance costs | 6.2 | 4.0 | 4.8 | 0.4 |  | 15.4 |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Costs paid | (3.4) | (5.3) | (9.1) |  |  | (17.8) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Balance, March 31, 2026 | $5.5 | $6.7 | $19.9 | $0.6 | $— | $32.7 |

---

(a)Balances related to the United States were $0.6 and $4.1 as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively.

(b)Balances related to France were $3.1 and $4.4 as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively. Balances related to Italy were $0.6 as of both December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026.

(c)Liabilities related to exited leased facilities are recorded within our short-term and long-term operating lease liabilities within our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

***(7) <u>Income Taxes</u>***

We recorded income tax expense at an effective rate of 83.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to an effective rate of 66.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The 2026 rate as compared to the 2025 rate was unfavorably impacted by the overall mix of earnings in the quarter. The 83.8% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the United States Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the overall mix of earnings, restructuring charges, tax losses in certain countries for which we did not recognize a corresponding tax benefit due to valuation allowances, the French exceptional corporate income tax surcharge, and the French business tax.

We had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $41.1 as of March 31, 2026. If recognized, the entire amount would favorably affect the effective tax rate except for $9.9. As of December 31, 2025, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $41.4.

We conduct business globally in various countries and territories. We are routinely audited by the tax authorities of the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. Generally, the tax years that could be subject to examination are 2019 through 2026 for our major operations in France, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States. As of March 31, 2026, we were subject to tax audits in Germany, India, Israel, Mexico, Spain and the United States.

***(8) <u>Net Earnings Per Share</u>***

The calculations of net earnings per share - basic and net earnings per share - diluted were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** |
|  | **March 31,** | **March 31,** |
|  | **2026** | **2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net earnings available to common shareholders | $2.5 | $5.6 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted-average common shares outstanding (in millions) |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic | 46.7 | 46.8 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effect of dilutive securities - share-based awards | 0.4 | 0.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted | 47.1 | 47.3 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net earnings per share - basic | $0.05 | $0.12 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net earnings per share - diluted | $0.05 | $0.12 |

---

There were 0.6 million and 0.7 million share-based awards excluded from the calculation of net earnings per share - diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, because their impact was anti-dilutive.

(a)Balances were net of accumulated impairment loss of $807.4 as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

(b)Balances were net of accumulated impairment loss of $139.5 as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

(c)Balances were net of accumulated impairment loss of $30.6 as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Total consolidated amortization expense related to intangible assets for the remainder of 2026 is expected to be $20.9 and in each of the next five years as follows: 2027 - $27.1, 2028 - $27.1, 2029 - $26.7, 2030 - $26.3 and 2031 - $26.2.

(a)Balances related to the United States were $1,007.2 as of both December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026.

(b)Balances related to France were $80.5 and $79.2 as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively. Balances related to Italy were $4.0 as of both December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026.

(c)The majority of the Corporate balance relates to goodwill attributable to our acquisitions of Right Management ($62.1) and Jefferson Wells ($55.5). Jefferson Wells is part of the United States reporting unit. Right Management is allocated to the reporting units of the countries in which Right Management operates. For purposes of monitoring our total assets by segment, we do not allocate the Corporate balances to the respective reportable segments as this is commensurate with how we operate our business. We do, however, include these balances within the appropriate reporting units for our goodwill impairment testing.

Noncontrolling interests, reported in total shareholders' equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, represent amounts related to majority-owned subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest. Net earnings attributable to these noncontrolling interests are recorded in interest and other expenses, net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recorded income of $0.2 and an expense of $0.3 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The Board of Directors declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.72 per share on May 8, 2026 and May 2, 2025. The 2026 dividends are payable on June 15, 2026 to shareholders of record as of June 1, 2026. The 2025 dividends were paid on June 16, 2025 to shareholders of record as of June 2, 2025.

In August 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 5.0 million shares of our common stock. We conduct share repurchases from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions or similar facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we did not repurchase any shares under the 2023 authorization. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we repurchased 0.4 million shares under the 2023 authorization at a cost of $25.0. As of March 31, 2026, there were 1.9 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2023 authorization.

PART 1<br>

***(13) <u>Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements</u>***

***Derivative Financial Instruments***

We are exposed to various market risks relating to our ongoing business operations. The primary market risks, which are managed using derivative instruments, are foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. In certain circumstances, we enter into cross-currency swaps and foreign currency forward exchange contracts ("forward contracts") to reduce the effects of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates on our cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our long-term debt obligations. We have historically managed interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and variable rate borrowings.

***Net Investment Hedges***

We use cross currency swaps, forward contracts and a portion of our foreign currency denominated debt, a non-derivative financial instrument, to protect the value of our net investments in certain of our foreign subsidiaries. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of our net investments in foreign operations, the changes in fair values of the derivative instruments are recognized in foreign currency translation, a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL"), to offset the changes in the values of the net investments being hedged. For non-derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of net investments in foreign operations, the change in the carrying value of the designated portion of the non-derivative financial instrument due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates is also recorded in foreign currency translation.

The €400.0 ($460.9) notes due June 2027 and the €500.0 ($573.4) notes due December 2030 were designated as a hedge of our net investment in our foreign subsidiaries with a Euro-functional currency as of March 31, 2026.

On September 10, 2025, we de-designated our previous cross-currency swap and entered into a new agreement under which we pay fixed-rate Swiss franc ("CHF") and receive fixed-rate United States dollar ("USD") payments. The new swap, designated as a net investment hedge of our foreign subsidiary with a CHF functional currency, includes modified terms such as a reset of the USD fixed rate and an extension of maturity. The notional amount of the swap is $413.8 and consists of three tranches, each representing one-third of the total notional amount, with staggered maturities on September 10, 2026, September 10, 2027 and September 11, 2028. The swap contains a significant financing component. Accordingly, future cash settlements related to the swap will be classified within financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The new swap was designated as a net investment hedge under the spot method. At the time of de-designation, the total mark-to-market loss on the original swap was $99.6, of which $82.2 was related to currency effects and was recorded in foreign currency translation within AOCL. The remaining $17.4 represents the excluded component, which is being amortized into interest expense over the life of the new swap.

The effect of our net investment hedges on AOCL for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income** | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income** |
|  | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** |
| **Instrument** | **2026** | **2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Euro Notes | $16.9 | $(41.8) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cross-currency swaps | 1.4 | (10.5) |

---

***Cash Flow Hedges***

We use forward currency exchange contracts to hedge the changes in cash flows of certain operational expenses denominated in foreign currency due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The changes in fair value of the forward currency exchange contracts derivatives are recorded in AOCL and reclassified into earnings when the underlying operating expense is recognized in earnings.

------

PART 1<br>

On June 9, 2022, we entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of €300.0 and a fixed rate of 1.936%, which was accounted for as a cash flow hedge, to hedge the interest rate exposure related to our anticipated issuance of €400.0 notes to repay our existing €400.0 notes maturing in September 2022. Upon the issuance of the notes on June 30, 2022, we settled this forward starting interest rate swap, resulting in a gain of $2.0, which was recorded in AOCL and is being amortized over the term of the notes as an offset to interest expense.

The following tables present the impact that changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges had on other comprehensive income ("OCI"), AOCL and earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI** | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI** |  | **Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCL into Income** | **Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCL into Income** |
|  | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Location of Gain (Loss) Reclassified** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** |
| **Instrument** | **2026** | **2025** | **from AOCL into Income** | **2026** | **2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Forward starting interest swap | $— | $— | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest and other expenses, net | $0.1 | $0.1 |

---

We expect the net amount of pre-tax derivative gains and losses included in AOCL at March 31, 2026 to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months will not be significant. The actual amount that will be reclassified to earnings over the next 12 months will vary due to future currency exchange rates.

***Fair Value Hedges***

We account for derivatives as fair value hedges when the hedged item is a recognized asset, liability, or firm commitment. We use cross currency swaps to hedge the changes in cash flows of certain of our foreign currency denominated intercompany notes due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We record the change in carrying value of the foreign currency denominated notes due to changes in exchange rates into earnings each period. The changes in fair value of the cross-currency swap derivatives are recorded in other comprehensive income/loss with an immediate reclassification into earnings for the change in fair value attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

In April 2024, we settled our previous cross-currency swaps at maturity for a net cash inflow of $14.9 and entered into a new cross-currency swap with a maturity date of April 2027. The swaps hedge an intercompany fixed-rate CHF denominated note, including annual interest payments and the payment of remaining principal at maturity, by converting it to a fixed-rate Euro denominated note. The economic effect of the swaps is to eliminate the uncertainty of cash flows in CHF associated with the note by fixing the principal at €236.9 with a fixed annual interest rate of 3.45%.

In September 2024, we settled our previous cross-currency swaps at maturity for a net cash inflow of $1.6 and entered into a new cross currency swap with a maturity date of September 2027. The swaps hedge an intercompany fixed-rate CHF denominated note, including the annual interest payments and the payment of remaining principal at maturity, by converting it to a fixed-rate Euro denominated note. The economic effect of the swaps is to eliminate the uncertainty of cash flows in CHF associated with the note by fixing the principal at €63.6 with a fixed annual interest rate of 3.27%.

The following tables present the impact that the fair value hedges had on our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI** | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI** |  | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income** | **Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income** |
|  | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Location of Gain (Loss)** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** |
| **Instrument** | **2026** | **2025** | **Recognized in Income** | **2026** | **2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Intercompany CHF notes | $— | $— | Interest and other expenses, net | $(2.1) | $5.8 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Cross-currency swaps | 1.4 | (0.8) | Interest and other expenses, net | 2.1 | (5.8) |

---

We assessed the hedging relationship at the inception of the hedges in order to determine whether the derivatives that are used in the transaction are highly effective in offsetting the cash flows of the hedged item, and will continue to assess the relationship on an ongoing basis. We use the hypothetical derivative method in conjunction with regression analysis using a third-party valuation to measure effectiveness of our cross-currency swap agreements and our forward currency exchange contracts.

------

PART 1<br>

***Non-designated instruments***

We also use certain derivatives, which are not designated as hedging instruments, as economic hedges of foreign currency and interest rate exposure. For our forward contracts that are not designated as hedges, any gain or loss resulting from the change in fair value is recognized in current period earnings. These gains or losses are offset by the exposure related to receivables and payables with our foreign subsidiaries and to interest due on our Euro-denominated notes, which is paid annually in June. The effect of our forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments on the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  |  | **Gain Recognized in Income** | **Gain Recognized in Income** |
|  | **Location of Gain** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Foreign currency forward contracts | Interest and other expenses, net | $0.7 | $1.3 |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Instruments not designated as hedges: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Foreign currency forward contracts | Accrued liabilities | 0.2 | 0.8 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Euro Notes due in 2030 | Long-term debt |  | 583.8 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total instruments |  | $1132.5 | $1742.7 |

---

***Fair Value Measurements***

The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value, except for the Euro-denominated notes, because the interest rates are variable and reflect current market rates. The fair value of the Euro-denominated notes, as observable at commonly quoted intervals (Level 2 inputs), was $1,024.2 and $1,645.3 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $1,034.3 and $1,639.0, respectively.

Our deferred compensation plan assets, included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, were $181.4 and $188.6 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. We determine the fair value of these assets, comprised of publicly traded securities, by using market quotes as of the last day of the period (Level 1 inputs).

We measure the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps at the value based on either directly or indirectly observable inputs from third parties (Level 2 inputs).

PART 1<br>

***(15) <u>Segment Data</u>***

Our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our Chief Executive Officer, who evaluates the performance of our operating segments using OUP. OUP serves as the measure of profitability for monitoring actual results against budgeted expectations as well as investment and resource allocation among our segments. In addition, the CODM utilizes OUP in conducting competitive analysis, benchmarking our performance against that of our competitors and determining compensation.

We are organized and managed primarily on a geographic basis. Each country and business unit generally has its own distinct operations and management team, providing services under our global brands and maintains its own financial reports. Each operation reports directly or indirectly through a regional manager to a member of executive management. Given this reporting structure, we operate using the following reporting segments: Americas, which includes United States and Other Americas; Southern Europe, which includes France, Italy and Other Southern Europe, Northern Europe, and APME.

The segments derive a majority of their revenues from our staffing and interim services. The remaining revenues within these segments are derived from our outcome-based solutions and consulting services, permanent recruitment services, outplacement services, talent management services and other services. Segment revenues represent sales to external clients. We provide services to a wide variety of clients, none of which individually comprise a significant portion of revenues for us as a whole. Due to the nature of our business, we generally do not have export sales.

***<u>Forward-Looking Statements</u>*** 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (each a "forward-looking statement"). Statements made in this quarterly report that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. In addition, from time to time, we and our representatives may make statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current assumptions and expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control and may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "may," "believe," "seek," "estimate," and other similar expressions. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the risk factors discussed in Item 1A – Risk Factors in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2025, which information is incorporated herein by reference. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, volatile, negative or uncertain economic conditions, particularly in Europe and the United States, including inflation, global trade policies, and geopolitical risk and uncertainty; changes in labor and tax legislation in places we do business; failure to implement strategic transformation initiatives and technology investments; and other factors that may be disclosed from time to time in our SEC filings or otherwise. We caution that any forward-looking statement reflects only our belief at the time the statement is made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

***<u>Business Overview</u>***

Our business is cyclical in nature and is sensitive to macroeconomic conditions generally. Client demand for workforce solutions and services is dependent on the overall strength of the labor market and secular trends toward greater workforce flexibility within each of the segments where we operate. Improving economic growth typically results in increasing demand for labor, resulting in greater demand for our staffing services while demand for our outplacement services typically declines. During periods of decreased demand, our operating profit is generally impacted unfavorably as we experience a deleveraging of selling and administrative expenses, which may not decline at the same pace as revenues. By contrast, during periods of increased demand, we are generally able to improve our profitability and operating leverage as our cost base can support some increase in business without a similar increase in selling and administrative expenses.

In the first quarter of 2026, we saw continued stabilization of revenue trends across our key markets and delivered solid performance in Asia Pacific and Latin America and certain European markets including France and Italy. Employers remain deliberate in their workforce hiring strategies. Engagement levels are steady and activity levels are becoming more consistent with improving business confidence in the United States and rising manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index in the United States and Europe. Although we are encouraged by signs of stabilization and ongoing strength in certain markets such as Asia Pacific, Latin America, and parts of Southern Europe, these trends reinforce our view that the shape of the recovery can be different by market with some inflecting earlier and others requiring longer periods of stabilization before inflecting.

During the first quarter of 2026, the United States dollar weakened on average, relative to the currencies in most of our markets, and overall had a favorable impact on our reported results compared to the first quarter of 2025. The changes in the foreign currency exchange rates had a 7.4% favorable impact on revenues from services. Substantially all of our subsidiaries derive revenues from services and incur expenses within the same local currency and generally do not have cross-currency transactions, and therefore, changes in foreign currency exchange rates primarily impact reported earnings and not our actual cash flow unless earnings are repatriated. To understand the performance of our underlying business, we utilize constant currency or organic constant currency variances for our consolidated and segment results.

During the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, we experienced a 5.6% revenue increase in the Americas, primarily driven by an increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and the favorable impact of currency exchange rates, partially offset by a decrease in demand for our Experis interim services. During the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, we experienced a 14.6% revenue increase in Southern Europe, primarily due to the favorable impact of currency exchange rates and the increased demand for Manpower staffing services, partially offset by decreased demand in outcome-based solutions. During the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, we experienced an 8.1% revenue increase in Northern Europe, primarily due to the favorable impact of currency exchange rates and an increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services, partially offset by a decrease in demand for our Experis interim services. We experienced a 7.1% revenue increase in APME in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to an increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and an increase in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates.

From a brand perspective, we experienced a revenue increase in Manpower and Talent Solutions while Experis experienced a revenue decrease in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. In our Manpower brand, the revenue increase was primarily due to increased demand for staffing services and Manpower consulting services. The revenue increase in our Talent Solutions brand, which includes RPO, MSP and our Right Management offerings, was primarily due to currency, an increase in demand for our Right Management outplacement services, partially offset by decreased demand for our permanent recruitment services. The revenue decrease in our Experis brand was primarily due to decreased demand in our interim services, permanent recruitment services, and outcome-based solutions services.

In the first quarter of 2026, our gross profit margin decreased 110 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily attributable to decreases in our staffing and interim margins due to business mix changes driven by enterprise clients, lower bench utilization, and lower permanent recruitment and other services activity.

Our operating profit increased 0.5% in the first quarter of 2026 and our operating profit margin decreased 10 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2025. Operating profit margin decreased in the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to the increase in selling and administrative expenses driven by the strategic transformation program costs related to our global transformation initiative.

PART 1<br>

The year-over-year increase in revenues from services was 10.3% (2.9% in constant currency) primarily attributed to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a revenue increase in the Americas of 5.6% (3.5% in constant currency) primarily driven by a $77.9 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and a $21.7 favorable impact of currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $51.9 decrease in demand for our Experis interim services. The United States, our largest market in the Americas, experienced a revenue decrease of -4.9% primarily driven by a $52.4 decrease in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by a $12.7 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services. The revenue decrease in the United States was offset by our Other America countries, which experienced a revenue increase of $71.2 primarily due to a $65.3 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a revenue increase in Southern Europe of 14.6% (3.0% in constant currency) primarily driven by a $212.0 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $57.5 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services, partially offset by a $5.5 decrease in demand for outcome-based solutions. France, the largest market in Southern Europe, experienced a revenue increase of 10.7% (-0.3% decrease in constant currency) primarily driven by a $106.1 favorable impact of currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $4.5 decrease in demand for outcome-based solutions. Italy, our second-largest market in Southern Europe, experienced a revenue increase of 19.3% (7.5% in constant currency) primarily driven by the $47.0 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $27.3 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services. Other Southern Europe countries experienced a revenue increase of 18.6% (6.1% in constant currency) primarily driven by the $58.9 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $26.8 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a revenue increase in Northern Europe of 8.1% (-1.8% decrease in constant currency) primarily driven by the $72.4 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $19.0 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services, partially offset by a $20.6 decrease in demand for our Experis interim services. Within our Northern Europe segment, we experienced revenue increases in the Nordics of $19.8, the United Kingdom of $11.9, Belgium of $6.0, and the Netherlands of $4.5 which represented revenue increases of 14.2%, 4.7%, 8.7%, and 5.3%, respectively (the Nordics were flat, and decreases of -2.0%, -2.2%, and -5.2%, respectively, in constant currency). This was partially offset by a decrease in Germany of $4.6 which represented a revenue decrease of -5.0% (-14.4% in constant currency); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a revenue increase in APME of 7.1% (8.1% in constant currency) primarily driven by a $31.3 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and a $5.7 increase in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by a $4.6 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates. Within our APME segment, we experienced revenue increases in Japan of 3.1% and India of 4.5% (6.2% and 10.4% in constant currency, respectively). Japan's revenue increase is primarily due to a $15.0 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and $1.1 increase in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by a $9.0 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates. India's revenue increase is primarily due to a $3.0 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and a $2.9 increase in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by a $3.9 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates.

The year-over-year 110 basis point decrease in gross profit margin was primarily attributed to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a 70 basis point unfavorable impact from the decrease in staffing and interim margins due to business mix shifts driven by enterprise clients and lower bench utilization and higher training costs in Europe;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a 20 basis point unfavorable impact from decreases in permanent recruitment margins due to lower levels of activity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a 20 basis point unfavorable impact from decreases in our TAPFIN-MSP margins due to lower levels of activity.

------

PART 1<br>

The 3.7% increase in selling and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 (-2.2% in constant currency) was primarily attributed to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a $39.0 increase due to the impact of changes in currency exchange rates; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a $10.4 increase (25.3% reported, 25.2% in constant currency) in corporate expense primarily due to strategic transformation program costs related to our global transformation initiative; partially offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a $14.3 decrease (3.0% increase in reported and -3.3% decrease in constant currency) in personnel costs primarily due to a $9.3 decrease in salaries as we saw the effects of restructuring actions previously taken; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a $9.9 decrease (1.1% increase in reported and -5.1% decrease in constant currency) in non-personnel costs primarily due to a $4.2 reduction in office lease and occupancy costs and broader cost-cutting measures.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues decreased 100 basis points in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a 70 basis point favorable impact as a result of lower personnel costs primarily due to a decrease in salaries and other personnel costs due to the effects of restructuring actions previously taken;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a 20 basis point favorable impact due to lower office lease and occupancy costs; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a 10 basis point favorable impact due to lower travel and entertainment expenses.

Interest and other expenses, net is comprised of interest, foreign exchange gains and losses and other miscellaneous non-operating income and expenses, including those associated with noncontrolling interests. Interest expense, net was $19.6 in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $15.6 in the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to interest costs on the €500.0 notes due December 2030 relative to the €500 notes redeemed in January 2026. Foreign exchange loss, net was $0.6 in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $0.9 in the first quarter of 2025. Miscellaneous income, net was $7.3 in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $5.0 in the first quarter of 2025.

We recorded income tax expense at an effective rate of 83.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to an effective rate of 66.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The 2026 rate as compared to the 2025 rate was unfavorably impacted by the overall mix of earnings in the quarter. The 83.8% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the United States Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the overall mix of earnings, restructuring charges, tax losses in certain countries for which we did not recognize a corresponding tax benefit due to valuation allowances, the French exceptional corporate income tax surcharge, and the French business tax.

Net earnings per share - diluted was $0.05 in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $0.12 in the first quarter of 2025. Restructuring costs and strategic transformation program costs unfavorably impacted net earnings per share - diluted by approximately $0.46, net of tax, in the first quarter of 2026.

Weighted average shares - diluted decreased to 47.1 million in the first quarter of 2026 from 47.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was due to the impact of share repurchases completed in the second quarter of 2025, partially offset by grants of share-based awards.

***<u>Segment Operating Results</u>***

*Americas*

In the Americas, revenues from services increased 5.6% (3.5% increase in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by a $77.9 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and a $21.7 favorable impact of currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $51.9 decrease in demand for our Experis interim services. In the United States (which represented 59% of the Americas' revenues), revenues from services decreased -4.9% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by a $52.4 decrease in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by a $12.7 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services. In Other Americas, revenues from services increased 25.2% (19.4% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by a $65.3 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and the $21.7 favorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates. Within our Other Americas segment, we experienced increases in Colombia of $21.7, Chile of $17.6, Mexico of $10.2, and Canada of $5.9, which represented increases of 48.6%, 42.7%, 18.9%, and 8.9%, respectively (31.1%, 31.3%, 2.3%, and 4.1%, respectively, in constant currency).

------

PART 1<br>

Gross profit margin decreased 160 basis points in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily due to decreased activity in our Experis interim services, which contributed 130 basis points to the decrease, and decreased activity in our permanent placement services, which contributed 50 basis points to the decrease, partially offset by a 20 basis point favorable impact due to increased outcome-based solutions margins.

Selling and administrative expenses increased 0.5% (-0.9% decrease in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by a $6.2 increase in restructuring costs and the $2.7 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $6.9 decrease in personnel costs.

OUP decreased -24.9% (-28.5% increase in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2025, which represented a 1.7% OUP margin, a decrease from the 2.4% in the first quarter of 2025. This OUP decrease was primarily due to decreased profitability in our U.S. business of $9.3. In the United States, OUP margin decreased to 0.3% in the first quarter of 2026 from 1.6% in the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to decreased margins in our Experis interim business and our permanent placement business as well as increased restructuring costs. Other Americas OUP margin decreased to 3.7% in the first quarter of 2026 from 3.9% in the first quarter of 2025.

*Southern Europe*

In Southern Europe, revenues from services increased 14.6% (3.0% increase in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to a $212.0 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $57.5 increase in demand for Manpower staffing services, partially offset by a $5.5 decrease in demand for outcome-based solutions. In France (which represented 51% of Southern Europe's revenues), revenues from services increased 10.7% (-0.3% decrease in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the $106.1 favorable impact of currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $4.5 decrease in demand for outcome-based solutions. In Italy (which represented 23% of Southern Europe's revenues), revenues from services increased 19.3% (7.5% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the $47.0 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $27.3 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services. In Other Southern Europe, revenues from services increased 18.6% (6.1% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to the $58.9 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $26.8 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services. Within our Other Southern Europe segment, we experienced revenue increases in Spain of $31.4 and Israel of $24.5 or 25.5% and 25.4%, respectively (13.0% and 8.4% in constant currency, respectively).

Gross profit margin decreased 50 basis points in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily due to lower margins in our Manpower staffing services, which contributed 40 basis points to the decrease, and lower activity in our permanent recruitment services, which contributed 10 basis points to the decrease.

Selling and administrative expenses increased 11.3% (-0.2% decrease in constant currency) during the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to the $25.0 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates and an increase of $1.1 in personnel costs, partially offset by $3.4 decrease in non-personnel costs in the first quarter of 2026.

OUP increased 8.0% (-2.0% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2025, which represented a 2.6% OUP margin, a decrease from 2.7% in the first quarter of 2025. This OUP increase was primarily due to the favorable impact of currency exchange rates. In France, the OUP margin decreased to 1.6% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 2.2% for the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by lower activity in our higher-margin permanent recruitment and outcome-based services. In Italy, the OUP margin decreased to 6.0% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 6.2% for the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to a decrease in gross profit margin as we saw decreased activity in our higher-margin permanent recruitment services. In Other Southern Europe, the OUP margin increased to 1.5% for the first quarter of 2026 from 1.0% for the first quarter of 2025.

*Northern Europe*

In Northern Europe, the largest country operations include the United Kingdom, the Nordics, the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium (comprising 34%, 20%, 11%, 11% and 9%, respectively, of Northern Europe's revenues). In the Northern Europe region, revenues from services increased 8.1% (-1.8% decrease in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the $72.4 favorable impact of currency exchange rates and a $19.0 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services, partially offset by a $20.6 decrease in demand for our Experis interim services. Within our Northern Europe segment, we experienced revenue increases in the Nordics of $19.8, the United Kingdom of $11.9, Belgium of $6.0, and the Netherlands of $4.5, which represented revenue increases of 14.2%, 4.7%, 8.7%, and 5.3%, respectively (the Nordics were flat and decreases of -2.0%, -2.2%, and -5.2%, respectively, in constant currency). These increases were partially offset by a decrease in Germany of $4.6, which represented a revenue decrease of -5.0% (-14.4% in constant currency).

------

PART 1<br>

Gross profit margin decreased by 140 basis points in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our Experis interim margins, which had a 70 basis point impact, decreased activity in our higher-margin permanent recruitment business, which had a 60 basis point impact, and a decrease in our consulting business, which had a 10 basis point impact.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased -7.6% (-16.7% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a $10.4 decrease in personnel costs as we experienced the impacts of restructuring actions previously taken, a $7.2 decrease in restructuring costs taken in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, and a $5.8 decrease in non-personnel costs, partially offset by the $13.1 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates.

OUP in Northern Europe increased 55.5% (62.8% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026, which represented a -1.0% OUP margin, an increase from -2.5% in the first quarter of 2025. This OUP margin increase was primarily driven by OUP increases in the Nordics of $2.5 and the United Kingdom of $2.0.

*APME*

Revenues from services increased 7.1% (8.1% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by an increase in demand for our Manpower staffing solutions of $31.3 and an increase in demand for our Experis interim services of $5.7, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates of $4.6. In Japan (which represented 57% of APME's revenues), revenues from services increased by $8.8, or 3.1% (6.2% in constant currency), primarily driven by a $15.0 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and a $1.1 increase in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by the $9.0 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates. In India (which represented 13% of APME's revenues), revenues from services increased by $3.0, or 4.5% (10.4% in constant currency), primarily driven by a $3.0 increase in demand for our Manpower staffing services and a $2.9 increase in demand for our Experis interim services, partially offset by the $3.9 unfavorable impact of currency exchange rates.

Gross profit margin decreased by 40 basis points in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to decreased margins for our Manpower brand, which contributed 40 basis points to the decrease.

Selling and administrative expenses increased 2.7% (3.2% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. The increase is primarily due to the $1.9 increase in personnel costs.

OUP in APME increased 7.7% (11.4% in constant currency) in the first quarter of 2026, which represented a 4.3% OUP margin, an increase from 4.2% in the first quarter of 2025. This OUP margin increase was primarily driven by a decrease in selling and administrative expenses as percent of revenue.

***<u>Financ</u><u>ial Measures</u>***

*Constant Currency and Organic Constant Currency Reconciliation*

Changes in our financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, acquisitions, and dispositions. We provide "constant currency" and "organic constant currency" calculations in this report to remove the impact of these items. We express year-over-year variances that are calculated in constant currency and organic constant currency as a percentage.

When we use the term "constant currency," it means that we have translated financial data for a period into United States dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that we used to translate financial data for the previous period. We believe that this calculation is a useful measure, indicating the actual growth or decline of our operations. We use constant currency results in our analysis of subsidiary or segment performance, including Argentina which operates in a hyperinflationary economy. We also use constant currency when analyzing our performance against that of our competitors. Substantially all of our subsidiaries derive revenues and incur expenses within a single country and, consequently, do not generally incur currency risks in connection with the conduct of their normal business operations. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates primarily impact reported earnings and not our actual cash flow unless earnings are repatriated.

When we use the term "organic constant currency," it means that we have further removed the impact of acquisitions in the current period and dispositions from the prior period from our constant currency calculation. We believe that this calculation is useful because it allows us to show the actual growth or decline of our ongoing business.

PART 1<br>

The constant currency and organic constant currency financial measures are used to supplement those measures that are in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). These Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies may calculate such financial results differently. These Non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Constant currency and organic constant currency percent variances, along with a reconciliation of these amounts to certain of our reported results, are provided below:

***<u>Liquidity and Capital Resources</u>***

Cash used to fund our operations is primarily generated through operating activities and provided by our existing credit facilities. We believe our available cash and existing credit facilities are sufficient to cover our cash needs for the foreseeable future. We assess and monitor our liquidity and capital resources globally. We use cash pooling arrangements, intercompany borrowing, and some local credit lines to meet funding needs and allocate our capital resources among our various entities. As of March 31, 2026, we had $150.8 of cash held by foreign subsidiaries. We have historically made and anticipate future cash repatriations to the United States from certain foreign subsidiaries to fund domestic operations.

The nature of our operations is such that our most significant current asset is accounts receivable and our most significant current liabilities are payroll-related costs, which are generally paid either weekly or monthly. As the demand for our services increases, we generally experience an increase in our working capital needs, as we continue to pay our associates on a weekly or monthly basis while the related accounts receivable are outstanding for much longer, which may result in a decline in operating cash flows.

Conversely, as the demand for our services declines, we generally experience a decrease in our working capital needs. This occurs as the existing accounts receivable are collected and not replaced at the same level, and thus our accounts receivable balance declines. There is less of an effect on current liabilities due to the shorter cycle time of the payroll-related items. While this may result in an increase in our operating cash flows, longer payment terms and timing of payroll, tax and supplier-related payments significantly impact our cash position and cash flows each period. Any increase in operating cash flows from an economic slowdown would not be sustained in the event that a downturn continues for an extended period, as we are seeing in the current economic cycle.

------

PART 1<br>

Cash used in operating activities was $126.3 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $153.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Changes in operating assets and liabilities utilized $163.6 and $196.4 of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These changes were primarily attributable to the timing of collections and payments. Accounts receivable decreased to $4,628.2 as of March 31, 2026 from $4,770.3 as of December 31, 2025 primarily due to lower revenues relative to the prior quarter and the impact of changes in currency exchange rates. Days Sales Outstanding ("DSO") increased by four days from December 31, 2025 to 59 days as of March 31, 2026, driven primarily by business mix shifts to enterprise and quarter-end timing of certain receivables involving our TAPFIN-MSP business.

Cash used in investing activities was $8.7 and $14.6 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Capital expenditures were $9.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $13.7 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. These expenditures were primarily comprised of purchases of computer equipment, office furniture and other costs related to office openings and refurbishments, as well as capitalized software costs. Our investing activities also include acquisitions and investments in companies throughout the world, including franchises. Total cash consideration paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was none and $1.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Cash used in financing activities was $511.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $45.7 provided in the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net debt repayments were $508.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to borrowings of $76.6 in the three months ended March 31, 2025. The larger repayments in 2026 were due to the redemption in January 2026 of our €500.0 notes originally issued in 2018.

Our €400.0 notes and €500.0 notes are due June 2027 and December 2030, respectively. We plan to refinance the notes at maturity, or prior to maturity, with new borrowings. The credit terms, including interest rate and facility fees, of any replacement borrowings will be dependent upon the condition of the credit markets at that time. We currently do not anticipate any problems accessing the credit markets for replacement of those notes.

Our $600.0 revolving credit agreement, maturing December 15, 2030, requires that we comply with a leverage ratio (Net Debt-to-Net Earnings before interest and other expenses, provision for income taxes, intangible asset amortization expense, depreciation and amortization expense ("EBITDA")) of not greater than 3.5 to 1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.5 to 1. The exclusion of certain restructuring expenses is also allowed in the determination of EBITDA in the agreement. During the second quarter of 2025, the definition of net debt in the agreement was amended to define net debt as total debt less cash in excess of $200.0 through December 31, 2025 and less cash in excess of $300.0 thereafter. As defined in the agreement, we had a Net Debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 2.86 to 1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.89 to 1 as of March 31, 2026. Based on our current forecast, we expect to be in compliance with our financial covenants for the next 12 months.

As of March 31, 2026, we had letters of credit of $0.4 and $50.0 drawn under our $600.0 revolving credit facility. We also had $33.0 drawn under our $150.0 working capital facility. Additional borrowings of $549.6 and $117.0 were available to us under our $600.0 revolving credit facility and $150.0 working capital facility, respectively, as of March 31, 2026.

In addition to the previously mentioned facilities, we maintain separate bank credit lines with financial institutions to meet the working capital needs of our subsidiary operations. As of March 31, 2026, such uncommitted credit lines totaled $364.0, of which $334.6 was unused. Under the revolving credit agreement, total subsidiary borrowings cannot exceed $300.0 in the first, second and fourth quarters, and $600.0 in the third quarter of each year. Additional borrowings of $270.6 could have been made under these lines as of March 31, 2026.

We have assessed our liquidity position as of March 31, 2026 and for the near future. As of March 31, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents balance was $224.9. We also have access to the previously mentioned revolving credit facility that could have immediately provided us with up to $600.0 of additional cash, less any outstanding borrowings and letters of credit, and we have an option to request an increase to the total availability under the revolving credit facility by an additional $300.0 and each lender may participate in the requested increase at their discretion. In addition, we have access to the previously mentioned credit lines to meet the working capital needs of our subsidiaries, of which $270.6 was available to use as of March 31, 2026. Our €400.0 ($460.9) notes mature in June 2027 and our €500.0 ($573.4) notes mature in December 2030. Based on the above, we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to satisfy future requirements and meet our obligations currently and in the near future.

(a)Available capacity under the revolving credit facility represents $600.0 of total borrowing capacity less outstanding borrowings and letters of credit.

(b)Available capacity under the working capital facility represents $150.0 of total borrowing capacity less outstanding borrowings and letters of credit.

The Board of Directors declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.72 per share on May 8, 2026 and May 2, 2025. The 2026 dividends are payable on June 15, 2026 to shareholders of record as of June 1, 2026. The 2025 dividends were paid on June 16, 2025 to shareholders of record as of June 2, 2025.

In August 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 5.0 million shares of our common stock. We conduct share repurchases from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions or similar facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we did not repurchase any shares under the 2023 authorization. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we repurchased 0.4 million shares under the 2023 authorization at a cost of $25.0. As of March 31, 2026, there were 1.9 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2023 authorization.

We had aggregate commitments of $2,579.6 as of March 31, 2026 related to debt, operating leases, severance and office closure costs, and certain other commitments compared to $3,146.5 as of December 31, 2025.

We also have entered into guarantee contracts and stand-by letters of credit totaling $626.6 and $626.1 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively ($582.8 and $582.3 for guarantees as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and $43.8 for stand-by letters of credit, on both dates). The guarantees primarily relate to staffing license requirements, operating leases and indebtedness. The stand-by letters of credit mainly relate to workers' compensation in the United States. If certain conditions were met under these arrangements, we would be required to satisfy our obligations in cash. Due to the nature of these arrangements and our historical experience, we do not expect any significant payments under these arrangements. Therefore, they have been excluded from our aggregate commitments. The cost of these guarantees and letters of credit were $0.5 and $0.4 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recorded $15.9 and $15.8 in restructuring costs, respectively. Payments made from the restructuring reserve were $17.8 and $12.3 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We use our restructuring reserve for severance, office closures, office consolidations, and professional and other fees related to restructuring in multiple countries and territories. We expect a majority of the remaining $32.7 reserve will be paid by the end of 2026.

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed by us under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management of the company, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding timely disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at a reasonable assurance level pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we completed the implementation of a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system Oracle Cloud ERP in our France and Italy businesses, which are part of our Southern Europe segment and which replaced several legacy systems used for procurement, invoice to cash processes and general ledger functions. As a result, we have made changes to our internal control over financial reporting to reflect the changes in the system environment and related processes.

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation discussed above that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
