Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Kelly Services, Inc. (the “Company”) today released financial information containing highlighted financial data for the three months and six months ended July 1, 2007. A copy of the press release is attached as exhibit 99.1 herein.

 

Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On July 23, 2007, the Chief Executive Officer of Kelly Services, Inc. authorized a restructuring plan for our Americas – Commercial branch operations. The plan is the result of management’s strategic review of operations in the U.S. which identified under-performing branch locations. The plan will result in the closure of approximately 40 branch locations. We expect that the plan will be completed no later than the fourth quarter of 2007.

We currently estimate that we will incur total pre-tax charges associated with these actions of approximately $2.0 million, including $1.2 million in facility exit costs, approximately $0.4 million of accelerated depreciation of leasehold and personal property in locations to be closed and $0.4 million in severance and other expenses. We expect that such charges will be recorded primarily in the third and fourth quarters of 2007 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The total estimated expense of $2.0 million includes anticipated future cash expenditures of $1.6 million.

KELLY SERVICES REPORTS 2nd QUARTER 2007 RESULTS

TROY, MI (July 24, 2007) — Kelly Services, Inc., a global provider of staffing services, today announced results for the second quarter ended July 1, 2007.

Carl T. Camden, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the second quarter of 2007 totaled $1.416 billion, a 1.6% increase compared to the $1.393 billion for the corresponding quarter in 2006. On a constant currency basis revenue decreased 0.5%.

Earnings from operations for the second quarter of 2007 totaled $22.3 million, an 11.5% increase compared to $20.0 million reported for the second quarter of 2006. Included in earnings from operations are $2.4 million of costs related to the restructuring of the UK operations.

During the second quarter, the French government changed the method of computing payroll tax credits retroactive to the beginning of 2006 and on a go forward basis. Also included in second quarter earnings from operations are approximately $3.8 million of French payroll tax credits, of which approximately $2.6 million relate to 2006, $600 thousand to first quarter 2007 and $600 thousand to second quarter 2007.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2007 were $0.41, an increase of 24% as compared to second quarter 2006 earnings of $0.33 per share. Included in second quarter diluted earnings is the $0.07 per share cost of the UK restructuring. Also included are approximately $0.07 per share of French payroll tax credits, of which $0.05 per share relate to 2006, $0.01 per share to first quarter 2007 and $0.01 per share to second quarter 2007.

Commenting on the results, Camden said, “Despite continued slowing in the Americas Commercial staffing market, we’re pleased that we delivered solid profitable results. We also accomplished a number of key strategic objectives during the quarter. We moved aggressively to diversify geographically and move into higher margin fee based businesses.

“We expanded our operations in China, Hong Kong and Singapore with the acquisition of P-Serv, a company specializing in temporary staffing, permanent placement, outsourcing and executive search. Through our strategic expansion in the Asia Pacific markets, we’re well positioned to participate in this region’s dynamic growth.

“Revenue in our Americas Commercial segment, which accounted for 49% of total sales, decreased 5.7% year over year in the second quarter. Operating earnings totaled $23.0 million, and decreased 12.9% compared to last year.

“Revenue in the Americas PTSA segment, which accounted for 19% of total sales, decreased 1.9% year over year in the second quarter. Operating earnings totaled $13.6 million and increased 1.3% on a year over year basis.

“Revenue in our International Commercial segment, which accounted for 28% of total sales, increased 16.0% year over year in the second quarter. On a constant currency basis revenue increased 8.8%. The segment operating earnings totaled $4.3 million, compared to a loss of $558 thousand the prior year. Included in the segment operating earnings are $2.4 million of UK restructuring costs and the $3.8 million of French payroll tax credits.

“Revenue in our International PTSA segment, which accounted for 4% of total sales, increased 42.9% year over year in the second quarter. On a constant currency basis revenue increased 33.8%. Operating earnings totaled $544 thousand, compared to a loss of $78 thousand the prior year.

“Corporate expenses totaled $19.2 million and were essentially unchanged from the prior year.

Mr. Camden added, “We expect third quarter 2007 earnings to be in the range of $0.41 to $0.46 per share, as compared to $0.45 per share from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2006. Not included in this guidance are planned restructuring costs in our UK and Americas operations.

“We expect the remaining restructuring costs in our UK operations to total approximately $1.3 million, or $0.04 per share, related primarily to the completion of the headquarters consolidation. In addition, we are announcing a restructuring of our Americas operations that will result in the closing of approximately 40 commercial branches. The estimated charge will total approximately $2.0 million pre tax, or about $0.03 per share, and is expected to occur over the third and fourth quarters of 2007.

Mr. Camden concluded, “For the full year of 2007, we are currently forecasting that earnings will range between $1.60 and $1.70 per share, compared to $1.56 per share from continuing operations in 2006. The range excludes the gain on the sale of the Home Care business and the UK and Americas restructuring costs. This guidance reflects our view that the U.S. economy will avoid a recession in 2007, and that our Americas staffing segments will resume positive revenue growth late in the 4th quarter of this year.”

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

(UNAUDITED)

(In thousands of dollars except per share data)

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the UK restructuring charge is useful to understand the Company’s fiscal 2007 financial performance and increases comparability

with prior year results. Specifically, Management believes that excluding this item 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) The UK restructuring charge is comprised of facility exit costs associated with the closure of 22 branch locations and the accelerated depreciation of the leasehold improvements and personal property at the impacted locations.
