ManpowerGroup Reports 4th Quarter and Full Year 2018 Results

MILWAUKEE, January 31, 2019 -- ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) today reported net earnings of $2.54 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2018 compared to $3.22 per diluted share in the prior year period. The net earnings in the quarter were $158.3 million compared to $216.3 million a year earlier. Revenues for the fourth quarter totaled $5.4 billion, a decrease of 4% from the year earlier period.

Financial results in the quarter were impacted by the sale of our non-core language translation business in the Netherlands. The gain on sale of this business positively impacted earnings per share by 10 cents in the fourth quarter. Financial results in the prior year period were significantly impacted by discrete net tax benefits primarily related to U.S. tax reform through the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in the fourth quarter of 2017. Discrete net tax benefits positively impacted earnings per share by $1.10 in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Financial results in the quarter were also impacted by the stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies compared to the prior year period. On a constant currency basis, revenues decreased 1% and net earnings per diluted share decreased 18%. Excluding the gain on sale of the language translation business in the quarter and the discrete net tax benefits in the prior year period, on a constant currency basis, net earnings per diluted share increased 20%. Earnings per share in the quarter were negatively impacted 11 cents by changes in foreign currencies compared to the prior year.

Jonas Prising, ManpowerGroup Chairman & CEO, said, “The fourth quarter results reflect a more challenging environment, particularly in Europe. Our performance demonstrates our capability to respond rapidly as market dynamics in some parts of the world change.  We are confident in our ability to manage in a more uncertain environment and believe our market-leading global footprint and extensive portfolio of workforce solutions will continue to serve us well and provide us with opportunities for profitable growth.

“We are anticipating diluted earnings per share in the first quarter of 2019 to be in the range of $1.30 to $1.38, which includes an estimated unfavorable currency impact of 13 cents,” Prising stated.

Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $556.7 million, or $8.56 per diluted share compared to net earnings of $545.4 million, or $8.04 per diluted share in the prior year. The year to date period included restructuring costs which reduced earnings per share by 46 cents. The prior year to date period included restructuring costs which reduced earnings per share by 41 cents and discrete income tax benefits which increased earnings per share by $1.31. Revenues for the year were $22.0 billion, an increase of 5% from the prior year in reported U.S. dollars or 2% in constant currency. Earnings per share for the year were positively impacted 8 cents by changes in foreign currencies compared to the prior year, or 12 cents excluding the restructuring costs. Earnings per share for the year were also positively impacted 10 cents by the gain on sale of the language translation business.

In conjunction with its fourth quarter and full year earnings release, ManpowerGroup will broadcast its conference call live over the Internet on January 31, 2019 at 7:30 a.m. CST (8:30 a.m. EST). Interested parties are invited to listen to the webcast and view the presentation by logging on to http://investor.manpowergroup.com/in the section titled “Investor Relations.”
