Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
(1)Basis of Presentation
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
although the Company believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. These consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements included in the Company's latest
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1996.
(2)Accounting Policies
In February of 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." This
Statement revises the computation and presentation of
earnings per share and will be adopted by the Company
in the fourth quarter of 1997. The Company does not
expect this Statement to have a significant impact on
reported earnings per share. Had the Company adopted
this Statement for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, both basic and diluted earnings per
share would have been equal to those currently reported
on the Statements of Operations.
(3)Operational Results
The information furnished reflects all adjustments
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for
a fair statement of the results of operations for the
periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.
(4)Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes has been computed using
the estimated annual effective tax rate, based on
currently available information.
(5)Subsequent Events
On April 28, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors
declared a cash dividend of $.08 per share payable June
16, 1997 to shareholders of record on May 28, 1997.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Operating Results - Three Months Ended March 31, 1997
and 1996
First quarter 1997 revenues increased 16.2% to $1,521.0
million. Revenues were unfavorably impacted 5.1% in the
first quarter by currency exchange rates. Volume, as
measured by billable hours of branch operations,
increased 22.1% in the quarter. All of the Company's
major markets experienced revenue increases, including
the United States (12.2%), France (25.5% in French
Francs) and the United Kingdom (9.2% in Pound
Sterling).
Cost of services, which consists of payroll and related
expenses of temporary workers, increased as a
percentage of revenues to 81.8% in the first quarter of
1997 from 81.3% in the first quarter of 1996. During
1996, government employment incentive programs in
certain of the Company's European markets reduced
payroll taxes, resulting in the lower cost of services.
Without the impact of these programs, cost of services
as a percentage of revenues in 1996 is comparable to
the 1997 amount.
Selling and administrative expenses increased 13.0%,
but decreased as a percentage of revenue to 15.5% in
1997 from 16.0% in 1996. This decrease reflects the
improved leveraging of overhead costs with volume
growth, primarily in France.
Net interest and other was $666,000 of expense in the
first quarter of 1997 compared to income of $211,000 in
the first quarter of 1996. This change is primarily due
to the changes in net interest and translation losses.
Net interest was income of $144,000 in the first
quarter of 1997 compared to income of $622,000 in the
first quarter of 1996. This change in net interest
income is primarily the result of an increase in
interest expense caused by higher worldwide borrowing
levels. The Company had a translation loss of $504,000
during the first quarter of 1997 due to the fluctuation
in foreign currency exchange rates, compared to a loss
of $161,000 in the first quarter of 1996.
The Company provided income taxes at an estimated rate
of 33.0% which is equal to the expected annual
effective rate for 1997. The Company's effective
income tax rate for 1996 was 33.0%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided by operating activities was $12.1 million
in the first quarter of 1997 compared to $47.0 million
in the first quarter of 1996. This change reflects the
increase in working capital requirements in the first
quarter of 1997 compared to a decrease in the first
quarter of 1996. Cash provided by operating activities
before the change in working capital requirements was
$39.0 million in the first quarter of 1997 compared to
$39.5 million in 1996.
Capital expenditures increased to $9.4 million in the
first quarter of 1997 from $9.2 million in the first
quarter of 1996. These expenditures primarily consist
of computer equipment and office furniture used in the
Company's worldwide branch office network.
Net cash from additional borrowings was $18.5 million
in the first quarter of 1997 compared to net cash used
to retire borrowings of $21.6 million in the first
quarter of 1996. The Company repurchased 665,600 shares
of stock during the first quarter of 1997, at a cost of
$21.2 million. These shares were purchased under the
1996 Board of Directors' authorization.
Accounts receivable decreased to $1,141.3 million at
March 31, 1997 from $1,167.5 million at
December 31, 1996. This change is due to the impact of
foreign exchange rates during the quarter, which
reduced receivables by $59.2 million, offset by the
increased sales level in all of the Company's major
markets.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had borrowings of
$61.4 million outstanding under its $275 million U.S.
revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $58.9
million outstanding under its U.S. commercial paper
program. The commercial paper borrowings have been
classified as long-term debt due to the availability to
refinance them on a long-term basis under the revolving
credit facility.
In addition, the Company and some of its foreign
subsidiaries maintain separate lines of credit with
foreign financial institutions to meet short-term
working capital needs. As of March 31, 1997, such
lines totaled
$154.7 million, of which $136.9 million was unused.
On April 28, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors
declared a cash dividend of $.08 per share which will
be paid on June 16, 1997 to shareholders of record on
May 28, 1997.
