TROY, MI -- (Marketwired) -- 08/06/14 -- Kelly Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: KELYA) (NASDAQ: KELYB), a leader in providing workforce solutions, today announced results for the second quarter of 2014.

Carl T. Camden, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $1.4 billion, a 3.2% increase compared to the corresponding quarter of 2013.

Earnings from operations for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $5.9 million, compared to $16.4 million reported for the second quarter of 2013. Included in the results of operations in the second quarter of 2014 are restructuring charges of $1.8 million. The results of operations in the second quarter of 2013 included impairment charges of $1.7 million and restructuring charges of $0.8 million. Excluding the impairment and restructuring charges, earnings from operations were $7.7 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to adjusted earnings of $18.9 million last year.

Diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2014 were $0.07 compared to $0.26 per share in the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted earnings per share were $0.10 in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $0.33 in the second quarter of 2013.

"Our second quarter results aligned with our expectations, and we're pleased with how we've executed our strategy in the first half of 2014," said Camden. "Our investments in OCG continue to yield double-digit revenue, GP, and earnings growth, confirming this segment is meeting the market's increased demand for higher-margin talent supply chain solutions. We're also making the aggressive investments needed to drive growth in specialty staffing across our local US markets, while continuing to invest in the success of our large account base."

Kelly also reported that on August 5, its board of directors declared a dividend of $0.05 per share. The dividend is payable September 8 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 18.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)
 

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the restructuring charges and asset impairment charges is useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2014 financial performance and increases comparability. Specifically, Management believes that excluding these items allows for a more meaningful comparison of current period operating performance with the operating results of prior periods. These non-GAAP measures may have limitations as analytical tools because they exclude items which can have a material impact on cash flow and earnings per share. As a result, Management considers these measures, along with reported results, when it reviews and evaluates the Company's financial performance. Management believes that these measures provide greater transparency to investors and provide insight into how Management is evaluating the Company's financial performance. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(1) Restructuring charges in 2014 relate to costs incurred for exiting the staffing business in Sweden and closing branches in Australia. Restructuring charges in 2013 relate to the Company's decision to exit the executive search business operating in Germany, and primarily relate to severance costs from exiting this business.

(2) Asset impairment charges represent the write-off of the carrying value of long-lived assets related to the decision to exit the executive search business operating in Germany.
