| Metric | Latest | YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength. | QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes. |
|---|---|---|---|
| RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three). | $18.0B | +0.6% | +7.8% |
| Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day. | $-13.3M | -109.2% | +2040.0% |
| Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials. | +16.7% | -3.4% | +0.2% |
| Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on). | +1.3% | -22.4% | +267.3% |
| Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales. | -0.1% | -109.1% | +1886.0% |
| Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock. | $-161.4M | -162.5% | +86.3% |
| FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine. | -0.9% | -162.2% | +87.2% |
| Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe. | 116.2% | +100.5% | -9.5% |
| Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking. | 1.11x | -1.2% | -7.2% |
| Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground. | $9.2B | +11.7% | -0.2% |
| Metric | Annual (A vs E) | Annual Surprise | Quarter (A vs E) | Quarter Surprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Surprise | -0.29 vs 2.87 | -110.1% | 1.14 vs 1.01 | +13.2% |

Operator: Welcome to ManpowerGroup's second quarter earnings results conference call you'll be put into listen-only mode until the question and answer time begins. This call is being recorded if you care to drop off now, please do so. I would now like to turn the call over to ManpowerGroup's Chair and CEO, Mr. Jonas Prising. Sir, you may begin. Jonas Prising: Good morning, thank you for joining us for our second quarter 2026 conference call. Our Chief Financial Officer, Jack McGinnis, and our President and Chief Strategy Officer, Becky Frankiewicz, are both with me today. For your convenience, our prepared remarks are available in the investor relations section of our website at manpowergroup.com. I'll begin with a brief overview of the quarter, including how we're seeing conditions evolve across our markets, and then I'll share a few updates on our transformation as well as our longer-term objectives. Becky will then provide an update on client momentum and the opportunities we're capturing with AI, followed by Jack, who will walk through the detailed financial results and our guidance for the third quarter of 2026. I'll close with a few comments before we open the line for Q&A. Jack will now cover the Safe Harbor language. Jack McGinnis: Good morning, everyone.

These statements are based on management's current expectations or beliefs. Actual results might differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements. Slide two of our earnings release presentation further identifies forward-looking statements made in this call and factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially and information regarding reconciliation of non-GAAP measures. Jonas Prising: Thanks, Jack. During the second quarter, we delivered strong results with revenues ahead of expectations underscored by growing client demand and accelerated delivery of our strategy. Our reported revenues were $4.9 billion, representing constant currency growth of 6%. System-wide revenue, which includes our expanding franchise revenue base, was $5.3 billion. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.1% reflects improving demand trends and operating leverage. These results reflect good execution across our brands and markets, continued cost discipline, and improving demand. We continue to leverage our scale and global footprint and focus commercial efforts on verticals where demand is strongest and where we have a clear opportunity to win and capture market share. We are encouraged by our performance across our brands. Specifically, within Manpower, demand indicators have strengthened, and the brand delivered its fifth consecutive quarter of growth, with revenue up 8% in constant currency. We are seeing positive …
