North American Professional Services Segment

The Company’s North American Professional Services segment provides specialized staffing and recruiting in the disciplines of accounting, law, engineering, and healthcare, and its business units operate respectively under the primary brands Accounting Principals, Special Counsel, Entegee, and Soliant Health. In the fourth quarter, this segment’s revenue increased 15% versus the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, revenue increased 11% versus the fourth quarter of 2006.

The North American Professional Services segment gross margin was 32.6%, a 120-basis-point increase versus the fourth quarter of 2006. The improvement in gross margin was due to an 80-basis-point increase in temporary staffing margins and a 29% increase in permanent placement fees versus last year’s fourth quarter.

All four business units within the North American Professional Services segment posted higher revenue compared with the fourth quarter of 2006. Specifically, year-over-year organic revenue growth in the fourth quarter was 13% for Entegee, 9% for Accounting Principals, 4% for Soliant Health, and 10% for Special Counsel. Including the impact of acquisitions, Special Counsel revenue increased 31%.

International Professional Services Segment

The Company’s International Professional Services segment is composed of Badenoch & Clark, a United Kingdom-based provider of finance and accounting, property, and other professional staffing services.

For the fourth quarter of 2007, Badenoch & Clark revenue increased 29% versus the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions, revenue grew 11% versus the fourth quarter of 2006.

Gross margin improved by 370 basis points to 31.5% due to higher temporary staffing margins, increased permanent placement sales, and the impact of an acquisition made in the third quarter of 2007. Operating income of this segment was up 40% versus the fourth quarter of 2006.

Information Technology Division Performance

The Company’s Information Technology division reported revenue of $243 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, representing 43% of total Company revenue. Below is further discussion of the fourth quarter performance of the IT division’s two reporting segments.

North American Information Technology Services Segment

The Company’s North American Information Technology Services segment is composed of Modis, the IT staffing unit; Idea Integration, the IT solutions unit; and Beeline, the workforce solutions unit. This segment reported revenue of $161 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, an increase of 11% versus the fourth quarter of 2006. Overall gross margin from the segment was 30.2% in the fourth quarter, up 110 basis points versus the fourth quarter of 2006.

Operating expenses were higher when compared sequentially with the third quarter, primarily due to the write-off of receivables from Ensemble Chimes Global, which filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy on January 9, 2008.

Beeline, the workforce solutions unit, grew revenue 17% on an organic basis versus the fourth quarter of 2006. Beeline continues to execute its strategy of completing strategic acquisitions designed to further expand its product and service lines. Including acquisitions, Beeline’s fourth quarter revenue increased 81%. As previously announced, Beeline expects to complete the purchase of the vendor management-related assets of Ensemble Chimes Global in the very near future, thus further establishing Beeline as the leading provider of vendor management solutions.

During the fourth quarter of 2007, Modis revenue increased 6% versus the fourth quarter of 2006, and revenue of Idea Integration increased 19% versus the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the impact of an acquisition, Idea Integration revenue grew 7%.

International Information Technology Services Segment

The Company’s International Information Technology Services segment is composed of Modis International, a leading provider of IT staffing services throughout the United Kingdom and continental Europe. During the quarter, Modis International’s revenue rose 15% versus the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, revenue grew 8% versus the year-earlier period. Due to increases in permanent-placement sales as well as an improvement in temporary-staffing gross margin, overall gross margin reached 18.1% in the fourth quarter, an improvement of 160 basis points versus the fourth quarter of 2006. In addition, Modis International managed expenses effectively during the quarter, which contributed to the 165% increase in operating income versus last year’s fourth quarter.

Capital Update

During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company generated operating cash flow of $52 million. MPS Group used $54 million during the quarter to repurchase its common stock. Recently, the Board of Directors approved an authorization to repurchase up to an additional $75 million of Company stock. Combined with the $16 million remaining from the prior authorization, the Company is now authorized to repurchase up to $91 million of Company stock. At the close of the fourth quarter, the Company had a cash balance of $105 million, short-term investments of $3 million, and no borrowings outstanding under its $250 million credit facility. MPS Group intends to use cash on hand primarily to buy back its common stock and to make strategic acquisitions.

Management Comments

“Across the board, we were pleased with our performance during the fourth quarter,” said Timothy Payne, MPS Chief Executive Officer. “As we look ahead to 2008, we are well positioned for another year of growth in revenue and earnings should market conditions remain favorable. Should a recession materialize, as predicted by many economists, our variable-cost business model will aid our ability to manage the Company through such conditions.”

“In 2007, the Company generated $132 million in cash flow from operations,” added Robert Crouch, MPS Chief Financial Officer. “Given our solid cash position and strong results achieved during the fourth quarter, the Company actively repurchased shares of Company stock. Our operating cash flow and strong balance sheet enable the Company to continue to buy back shares as well as make strategic acquisitions. We expect first quarter 2008 revenue and diluted net income per common share to be in the range of $550 million to $580 million and $0.18 to $0.22, respectively. This earnings guidance includes the seasonal impact of additional payroll taxes recognized in the first quarter of each year.”
