The Staffing Group, Ltd. Letter to Shareholders

ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwired - Apr 25, 2016) -  The Staffing Group, Ltd. (OTC PINK: TSGL) (the "Company"), an emerging public company specializing in leveraged buyout transactions and restructurings with a focus on verticals within the 115 billion dollar U.S. staffing industry, today issued the follow letter to shareholders:

Dear Shareholders,

It is my pleasure to provide details regarding our recent acquisition and insight into expectations for future growth.

Platform Acquisition:

On April 1, 2016, we completed the asset purchase of four office locations from Labor Smart, Inc., our largest shareholder. These offices will continue to operate under the laborSMART™ brand pursuant to a licensing agreement we entered into with Labor Smart, Inc. in 2015.

On an annualized basis, we project 2016 topline revenue and EBITDA from these acquired office locations to exceed $7.5 million and $800k respectively.

This is in addition to the laborSMART™ branded office location we opened in Montgomery, AL through our 51% controlled subsidiary, Staff Fund I, LLC.

Acquisition Pipeline:

On February 11, 2016, we announced plans to acquire a North Dakota industrial staffing firm. Pending final due diligence, we anticipate a closing of this acquisition in the 3^rd quarter of 2016. This potential acquisition will carry a similar deal structure consistent with our capital allocation strategy: 1/3 stock, 1/3 cash, and 1/3 seller carried debt with a total acquisition multiple of 3.64 or less times EBITDA. In addition, we maintain that due to the upside opportunity of this Platform Acquisition, we will require the completion of our $5 million private placement for future working capital prior to closing this transaction.

We continue to build a pipeline of potential acquisitions that achieve our goal of achieving annual revenues of $75 million within the next 3 years. While we have completed our first Platform Acquisition, we seek to acquire additional premium brands within the light industrial staffing industry with scalable business models, in addition to bolt-on acquisitions.

Key's to Future Success:

• Source a high volume of acquisition targets; close quickly on the best
• Acquire profitable, cash generating businesses with diverse customer bases
• Retain the best sales, management, and operations talent from each acquisition
• Protect, leverage, and enhance our balance sheet and cash flow with each transaction

I am ecstatic about what is to come and what has already transpired this year. This solid plan will enable us to gain profitability quickly and build a solid foundation for rapid growth. I look forward to updating you on our continued success well into the future.

Sincerely,

Kimberly Thompson
Chief Executive Officer
The Staffing Group, Ltd.
