ManpowerGroup Reports 1st Quarter 2012 Results
 
    MILWAUKEE, April 20, 2012 -- ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) today reported that net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $40.2 million, or 50 cents per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $35.7 million, or 43 cents per diluted share, a year earlier. Revenues for the first quarter were $5.1 billion, similar to the prior year, up 3% in constant currency.
 
Net earnings in the first quarter were negatively impacted by 2 cents per diluted share, as foreign currencies were relatively weaker compared to the prior year period.
 
Jeffrey A. Joerres, ManpowerGroup Chairman and CEO, said, “We were able to achieve very solid profitability despite the continued headwinds of slow economic growth. Our geographic foot print, wide range of offerings and very good expense management contributed to the strong quarter. Our workforce solutions business continued to grow by solid double digits while our permanent recruitment business continues to outpace last year.
 
“We anticipate second quarter earnings per share will range between 68 cents to 76 cents. This includes an unfavorable impact of 4 cents per share related to currency changes in the quarter.”
 
In conjunction with its first quarter earnings release, ManpowerGroup will broadcast its conference call live over the Internet on April 20, 2012 at 7:30 a.m. CDT (8:30 a.m. EDT). Interested parties are invited to listen to the webcast and view the presentation by logging on to http://www.manpowergroup.com/investors.
