Kelly Services Reports 2nd Quarter 2009 Results


TROY, MI--(Marketwire - August 5, 2009) - Kelly Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: KELYA) (NASDAQ: KELYB), a world leader in workforce management services and human resources solutions, today announced results for the second quarter of 2009.

Carl T. Camden, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced revenue for the second quarter of 2009 totaled $1.0 billion, a 29% decrease compared to the corresponding quarter in 2008. On a constant currency basis, revenue decreased by 24%.

Losses from operations for the second quarter of 2009 totaled $74.5 million, compared to earnings from operations of $15.0 million reported for the second quarter of 2008. Included in the results from operations for the second quarter 2009 are impairment charges totaling $52.6 million and $2.4 million of restructuring costs relating to the Company's UK operations. Excluding the impairment and restructuring charges, the loss from operations was $19.5 million for the second quarter of 2009.

Diluted losses per share from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2009 were $1.89, compared to second quarter 2008 earnings of $0.30 per share. The impairment charges totaled $1.41 per share and the UK restructuring charge totaled $0.07 per share in the second quarter of 2009.

The second quarter impairment charges include adjustments to the value of goodwill for the Company's Americas Commercial, EMEA PT and APAC Commercial segments and the long-lived assets related to operations in Japan. The UK restructuring charge is part of a plan to further consolidate and close branches in the UK during 2009.

Commenting on the second quarter results, Camden said the Company's loss reflects the continued weakened state of labor markets throughout the world.

"In this challenging environment, we remain focused on expense control, where our efforts have had a significant impact on our overall performance. Going forward, we will seek out additional opportunities to simplify our business structure and operate more efficiently.

"While having the potential to yield immediate results, these actions will also serve to strengthen Kelly, provide impetus when the economy improves, and position us for long-term success," said Camden.

                   RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
                               (UNAUDITED)


Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles) information excluding the U.K. restructuring and asset
impairment charges are useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2009
financial performance and increases comparability. 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 U.K. restructuring charge is comprised of facility and other exit
costs associated with the disposal or closure of 41 branch locations
related to the restructuring program.

(2) The impairment charges include adjustments to the value of goodwill for
the Company's Americas Commercial, APAC Commercial and EMEA PT segments, as
well as long-lived assets and intangibles related to operations in Japan.
