Revenue for the full year totaled $5.0 billion, a 15% increase compared to the prior year.

Earnings from operations for the full year of 2010 totaled $38.1 million compared to a loss of $146.1 million in 2009. The results for the full year 2010 include $7.2 million of restructuring charges. The results for 2009 include $29.9 million of restructuring charges and $53.1 million of goodwill and related impairment charges.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2010 were $0.39 compared to fourth quarter 2009 losses of $0.23 per share. The restructuring charges were $0.29 per share in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the full year of 2010 were $0.71 compared to 2009 losses of $3.01 per share. In 2010, the restructuring charges totaled $0.15 per share.

Commenting on the fourth quarter results, Camden stated, "We're pleased to report another successful quarter fueled by sustained demand for temporary staffing, a healthier global economy, and Kelly's focus on business execution and operational excellence."

Camden added that 2010 was much improved over a very difficult 2009, and Kelly made significant progress during the year in response to a changing labor market.

"As we begin 2011 and look to the future, we will continue to focus on building shareholder value by delivering a competitive profit in our industry, from the right solutions for our customers, delivered by the best talent in the business," said Camden.

                               (UNAUDITED)

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) information excluding the restructuring and impairment charges is useful to understand the Company's fiscal 2010 financial performance and increases comparability. Specifically, Management believes that excluding these items 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) In 2010, restructuring costs relate primarily to severance and lease termination costs for branches in the EMEA and APAC Commercial segments that were in the process of closure at the end of 2009, as well as severance costs related to the corporate headquarters. In 2009, restructuring costs relate primarily to global severance, lease terminations, asset write-offs and other miscellaneous costs incurred in connection with the reduction in the number of permanent employees and the consolidation, sale or closure of branch locations.

(2) In 2009, the goodwill and related impairment charges included 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 and Europe.
