NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Kelly Services, Inc. (the
Company, Kelly, we or us) have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation
S-X and do not include all the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. All adjustments, including normal recurring
adjustments, have been made which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement
of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for such interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. The unaudited consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2011, included in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 17, 2011
(the 2010 consolidated financial statements).
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
2. Fair Value Measurements
Trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings
approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following tables present assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 3, 2011
and January 2, 2011 on the consolidated balance sheet by fair value hierarchy level, as described
below.

2. Fair Value Measurements (continued)
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (continued)
Level 1 measurements consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities. Level 2 measurements include quoted prices in markets that are not active or model
inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the
asset or liability. Level 3 measurements include significant unobservable inputs.
Money market funds as of April 3, 2011 represent investments in money market accounts, all of which
is restricted cash that is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the
consolidated balance sheet. Money market funds as of January 2, 2011 represent investments in
money market accounts, of which $2.9 million is included in cash and equivalents and $1.2 million
of restricted cash is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated
balance sheet. The valuations were based on quoted market prices of those accounts as of the
respective period end.
Available-for-sale investment represents the Companys investment in Temp Holdings Co., Ltd. (Temp
Holdings), a leading integrated human resources company in Japan, and is included in other assets
on the consolidated balance sheet. The valuation is based on the quoted market price of Temp
Holdings stock on the Tokyo Stock Exchange as of the period end. The unrealized loss of $0.6
million for the quarter ended April 3, 2011 and unrealized gain of $1.7 million for the quarter
ended April 4, 2010 was recorded in other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders
equity.
During the second quarter of 2010, the Company entered into two forward foreign currency exchange
contracts to offset the variability in exchange rates on its yen-denominated debt. One contract
matures on May 13, 2011 and the other contract matured November 2010. During the first quarter of
2011, the yen-denominated debt was paid in full. As a result, the Company entered into an
additional forward foreign currency exchange contract during the first quarter of 2011 to offset
the remaining open contract that was purchased during 2010.
These contracts, which are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the
consolidated balance sheet, are valued using market exchange rates and are not designated as
hedging instruments. Accordingly, gains and losses resulting from recording the foreign exchange
contracts at fair value are reported in other expense, net on the consolidated statement of
earnings, and amounted to a slight gain for the quarter ended April 3, 2011. At April 3, 2011, the
Company had the two aforementioned open forward foreign currency exchange contracts with expiration
dates of less than one year, one to buy Japanese yen with a U.S. dollar equivalent of $6.1 million,
and one to sell Japanese yen with a U.S. dollar equivalent of $6.8 million. The Company does not
use financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

3. Restructuring
Restructuring costs incurred in the first quarter of 2010 totaled $4.4 million, and primarily
related to severance and lease termination costs for branches in the EMEA Commercial and APAC
Commercial segments that were in the process of closure at the end of 2009, and severance costs
related to the corporate headquarters. Restructuring costs incurred in the first quarter of 2011
totaled $4.0 million and primarily relate to revisions of the estimated lease termination costs for
EMEA Commercial branches that closed in prior years. These costs were reported as a component of
SG&A expenses. Total costs incurred since July 2008 for our restructuring efforts amounted to
$47.6 million.
A summary of the balance sheet accrual related to the global restructuring costs follows (in
millions of dollars):
Balance at beginning of year |
$ | 4.7 | ||
Additions charged to operations |
4.0 | |||
Reductions for cash payments |
(1.1 | ) | ||
Balance at April 3, 2011 |
$ | 7.6 | ||
The remaining balance of $7.6 million as of April 3, 2011 represents primarily future lease
payments and is expected to be paid by 2018. On a quarterly basis, the Company reassesses the
accrual associated with restructuring costs and adjusts it as necessary.
4. Debt
On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with its lenders to amend and restate its
existing $90 million, three-year revolving credit facility (the Facility). The amendment
increased the capacity of the Facility to $150 million, and the term of the Facility was extended
to March 31, 2016 from September 28, 2012. The Facility allows for borrowings in various
currencies and is used to fund working capital, acquisitions, and general corporate needs.
The interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Facility at April 3, 2011 was 200 basis points
over the London InterBank Offering Rate (LIBOR) in addition to a facility fee of 25 basis points.
LIBOR rates vary by currency. The Company may also borrow using rates based on the Prime Rate;
these loans have shorter notice periods and interest periods. At April 3, 2011, the prime-rate
based loans were available to the Company at the Prime Rate plus 100 basis points and a facility
fee of 25 basis points.

4. Debt (continued)
At April 3, 2011, borrowings under the Facility were $16.4 million, with an interest rate of 4.25%,
and the Facility had a remaining capacity of $133.6 million. Certain of the Facilitys financial
covenants and restrictions were amended and are described below:
| The Company must not allow its ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain cash and non-cash charges that are non-recurring in nature (EBITDA) to interest expense (Interest Coverage Ratio) for the last twelve months to be below 4.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter ending prior to Q4 2012 and 5.0 to 1.0 thereafter. |
| The Company must keep its ratio of total indebtedness to the sum of net worth and total indebtedness below 0.4 to 1.0 at all times. |
| Dividends, stock buybacks and similar transactions are limited based on the Interest Coverage Ratio. When the Interest Coverage Ratio is below 5.0 to 1.0, the Company may pay up to $20 million in aggregate over the four most recent fiscal quarters including the current quarter; when the Interest Coverage Ratio is above 5.0 to 1.0, the Company may pay up to $30 million in aggregate over the four most recent fiscal quarters including the current quarter. |
| The Company must adhere to other operating restrictions relating to the conduct of business, such as certain limitations on asset sales and the type and scope of investments. |
At January 2, 2011, there were no borrowings under the Facility.
On March 31, 2011, the Company and Kelly Receivables Funding, LLC, a wholly owned bankruptcy remote
special purpose subsidiary of the Company (the Receivables Entity), amended the Receivables
Purchase Agreement related to the $100 million securitization facility (Securitization Facility).
The amendment (i) extended the term of the Securitization Facility from 364 days to three years,
(ii) reduced borrowing costs, and (iii) increased the capacity from $100 to $150 million. The
Receivables Purchase Agreement will terminate December 4, 2014, unless terminated earlier pursuant
to its terms.
Under the Securitization Facility, the Company will sell certain trade receivables and related
rights (Receivables), on a revolving basis, to the Receivables Entity. The Receivables Entity
may from time to time sell an undivided variable percentage ownership interest in the Receivables.
The Securitization Facility also allows for the issuance of standby letters of credit (SBLC).
The Securitization Facility contains a cross-default clause that could result in termination if
defaults occur under our other loan agreements. The Securitization Facility also contains certain
restrictions based on the performance of the Receivables.
As of April 3, 2011, the Securitization Facility carried $49.0 million of short-term borrowings at
a rate of 1.46% and $50.6 million of SBLCs related to workers compensation. The interest rate
applicable to borrowings under the Securitization Facility at April 3, 2011 was 55 basis points
over the cost of commercial paper, in addition to a facility fee of 60 basis points. The cost of
borrowings on this facility varies on a daily basis, along with the cost of commercial paper. The
remaining capacity on the Facility was $50.4 million at April 3, 2011. As of January 2, 2011, the
Securitization Facility carried $17.0 million of short-term borrowings at a rate of 1.57%, SBLCs
related to workers compensation of $45.7 million and remaining capacity of $37.3 million.

4. Debt (continued)
The Receivables Entitys sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital
contributions of trade accounts receivable and related rights from the Company. As described
above, the Receivables Entity may retransfer these receivables or grant a security interest in
those receivables under the terms and conditions of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The
Receivables Entity is a separate legal entity with its own creditors who would be entitled, if it
were ever liquidated, to be satisfied out of its assets prior to any assets or value in the
Receivables Entity becoming available to its equity holders. The assets of the Receivables Entity
are not available to pay creditors of the Company or any of its other subsidiaries. The assets and
liabilities of the Receivables Entity are included in the consolidated financial statements of the
Company.
The Company had a three-year syndicated term loan facility comprised of 9 million euros and 5
million U.K. pounds, and a five-year, 6 billion yen-denominated loan agreement, all of which had a
maturity date of October 3, 2011. On March 22, 2011, the Company fully paid the euro and U.K.
pound loans. On March 24, 2011, the Company also fully paid the yen loan using borrowings from the
revolving credit facility and Securitization Facility.
As of January 2, 2011, the U.S. dollar amount outstanding on the euro and U.K. pound facility,
which fluctuated based on foreign exchange rates, totaled approximately $19.7 million, all of which
was classified as current, and carried an interest rate which ranged from 4.24% to 4.44%. As of
January 2, 2011, the U.S. dollar amount outstanding on the yen-denominated loan balance, which also
fluctuated based on foreign exchange rates, totaled approximately $42.0 million, all of which was
classified as current, and carried an interest rate of 3.7%.
5. Earnings Per Share
The reconciliation of basic earnings per share on common stock for the quarter ended April 3, 2011
follows (in millions of dollars except per share data). A reconciliation for the quarter ended
April 4, 2010 is not applicable, since an allocation of the net loss in that period to
participating securities would have had an anti-dilutive effect on basic and diluted per share
amounts.

Angeles, and Sullivan v. Kelly Services, Inc., pending in the U.S. District Court Southern District
of California, both involve claims for monetary damages by current and former temporary employees
working in the State of California.
The Fuller matter involves claims relating to alleged misclassification of personal attendants as
exempt and not entitled to overtime compensation under state law and to alleged technical
violations of a state law governing the content of employee pay stubs. On April 30, 2007, the
Court in the Fuller case certified both plaintiff classes involved in the suit. In the third
quarter of 2008, Kelly was granted a hearing date for its motions related to summary judgment on
both certified claims. On March 13, 2009, the Court granted Kellys motion for decertification of
the classes. Plaintiffs filed a petition for review on April 3, 2009 requesting the
decertification ruling be overturned. Plaintiffs request was granted on May 17, 2010 and the suit
was recertified as a class action. The Sullivan matter relates to claims by temporary workers for
compensation while interviewing for assignments. On April 27, 2010, the Court in the Sullivan
matter certified the lawsuit as a class action. The parties have submitted a proposed settlement
to the Court for final approval.
The Company is also involved in a number of other lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of its
business, typically employment discrimination and wage and hour matters. While management does not
expect any of these other matters to have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of
operations, financial position or cash flows, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and
the Company is not at this time able to predict the outcome of these matters. It is reasonably
possible that some matters could be decided unfavorably to the Company and, if so, could have a
material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.

8. Segment Disclosures
The Companys segments are based on the organizational structure for which financial results are
regularly evaluated by the Companys chief operating decision maker to determine resource
allocation and assess performance. The Companys seven reporting segments are: (1) Americas
Commercial, (2) Americas Professional and Technical (Americas PT), (3) Europe, Middle East and
Africa Commercial (EMEA Commercial), (4) Europe, Middle East and Africa Professional and
Technical (EMEA PT), (5) Asia Pacific Commercial (APAC Commercial), (6) Asia Pacific
Professional and Technical (APAC PT) and (7) Outsourcing and Consulting Group (OCG).
The Commercial business segments within the Americas, EMEA and APAC regions represent traditional
office services, contact-center staffing, marketing, electronic assembly, light industrial and
substitute teachers. The PT segments encompass a wide range of highly skilled temporary employees,
including scientists, financial professionals, attorneys, engineers, IT specialists and healthcare
workers. OCG includes recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), contingent workforce outsourcing
(CWO), business process outsourcing (BPO), payroll process outsourcing (PPO), executive
placement and career transition/outplacement services. Corporate expenses that directly support
the operating units have been allocated to the seven segments based on a work effort, volume or, in
the absence of a readily available measurement process, proportionately based on revenue from
services.
The following table presents information about the reported revenue from services and earnings from
operations of the Company for the 13 weeks ended April 3, 2011 and April 4, 2010. Asset
information by reportable segment is not presented, since the Company does not produce such
information internally, nor does it use such data to manage its business.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. |
Executive Overview
The U.S. and global economic recovery that began in 2010 followed a sustainable growth path during
the first quarter of 2011. Labor market trends improved, continuing to favor the staffing
industry. In March, the U.S. temporary employment penetration rate increased to 1.73%, the
highest level in over 2 1/2 years. In addition, more than 50,000 temporary jobs were added in the
first quarter of 2011.
For Kelly, the first quarter is traditionally the most challenging, due to seasonal employment
trends. In the first quarter:
| We experienced strong double-digit top line revenue growth year-over-year in all business segments. |
| Compared to the first quarter of 2010, the gross profit held steady at 16.0%. |
| Diluted earnings per share totaled $0.03, compared to a diluted loss per share of $0.06 last year. |
| Our performance, however, was dampened by greater-than-expected expense growth. |
During the last several years, we refined our strategic focus by adjusting our geographic
footprint, streamlining our operations and reducing expenses through restructuring actions. As
2011 progresses, we are committed to executing this business strategy. Recognizing that the pace
of economic growth and demand for labor will impact our efforts, we remain focused on growing
higher-margin PT staffing, expanding fee-based business and delivering customer-focused workforce
solutions.

The year-over-year change in revenue for the first quarter resulted primarily from a 16% increase
in hours worked. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the quarter increased in all business
segments.

Table of Contents
Compared to the first quarter of 2010, the gross profit rate improved slightly. Selling, general
and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased year over year due primarily to hiring of full-time
employees and increased incentive compensation. Included in SG&A expenses are pretax charges for
restructuring costs of $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2011 and $4.4 million in the first
quarter of 2010. Restructuring costs incurred in the first quarter of 2010 primarily related to
severance and lease termination costs for branches in the EMEA Commercial and APAC Commercial
segments that were in the process of closure at the end of 2009, and severance costs related to the
corporate headquarters. Restructuring costs incurred in the first quarter of 2011 primarily relate
to revisions of the estimated lease termination costs for EMEA Commercial branches that closed in
prior years.
Income tax expense for the first quarter of 2011 was $0.1 million, compared to a benefit of $0.7
million for the first quarter of 2010. Relatively low income levels, as well as tax credits,
contributed to the low tax rate for the first quarter of 2011. The 2011 expense includes the
favorable impact of the HIRE Act retention credit. The Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment
(HIRE) Act allows employers to receive an income tax credit for hiring and retaining previously
unemployed individuals. This income tax credit is available only in 2011, and is in addition to
the HIRE Act payroll tax benefits generated in 2010.
Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2011 were $0.03, as compared to a diluted loss
of $0.06 for the first quarter of 2010.

The change in Americas Commercial revenue from services reflected a 20% increase in hours,
partially offset by a 1% decrease in average billing rates on a constant currency basis. Americas
Commercial represented 49% of total Company revenue in the first quarter of both 2011 and 2010.
SG&A expenses increased due to hiring of employees and increased performance-based compensation.

combined with an increase in average billing rates of 2% on a constant currency basis. Americas PT
revenue represented 18% of total Company revenue in the first quarter of both 2011 and 2010.
The Americas PT gross profit rate decreased primarily due to mix, as we continue to experience
stronger growth in the lower-margin PT businesses. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due
to hiring of recruiters, higher salaries and performance-based compensation in support of our PT
expansion efforts.

The change in revenue from services in EMEA Commercial resulted from a 6% increase in average
hourly bill rates on a constant currency basis, combined with a 4% increase in hours worked. EMEA
Commercial revenue represented 17% of total Company revenue in the first quarter of 2011 and 18% in the first
quarter of 2010.
The change in the gross profit rate is primarily due to higher fee-based income. Fee-based income
has a significant impact on gross profit rates. There are very low direct costs of services
associated with fee-based income. Therefore, increases or decreases in fee-based income can have a
disproportionate impact on gross profit rates. The increase in SG&A expenses was due to increased
hiring of full-time employees in specific countries with identified high-growth potential.

The change in revenue from services in EMEA PT resulted from a 14% increase in hours worked,
combined with a 2% increase in average hourly bill rates on a constant currency basis. EMEA PT
revenue represented 3% of total Company revenue in the first quarter of both 2011 and 2010.
The change in the EMEA PT gross profit rate was primarily due to decreases in temporary margins as
a result of unfavorable country and customer mix. SG&A expenses increased, due to hiring of
full-time employees and investments in additional branches in Russia and Germany.

The change in revenue from services in APAC Commercial resulted from an increase in temporary sales
growth in Australia, Singapore and Malaysia. APAC Commercial revenue represented 7% of total
Company revenue in the first quarter of both 2011 and 2010.
The decrease in the APAC Commercial gross profit rate was primarily due to a decline in temporary
gross profit rates due to changes in business mix related to growth in lower margin key accounts.
SG&A expenses increased, primarily due to higher salaries and related costs from the investment in
additional full-time employees across the region.

Revenue from services in the OCG segment for the first quarter of 2011 increased in the
Americas, EMEA and APAC regions, due primarily to growth in our RPO and CWO practices. OCG revenue
represented 5% of total Company revenue in the first quarter of both 2011 and 2010.
The OCG gross profit rate increased primarily due to increased volume mix in the RPO and CWO
practice areas, as well as increases in absolute gross profit rates in the RPO practice area. The
increase in SG&A expenses is primarily the result of support costs associated with customer
programs in our RPO and CWO practice areas.
Financial Condition
Historically, we have financed our operations through cash generated by operating activities and
access to credit markets. Our working capital requirements are primarily generated from temporary
employee payroll and customer accounts receivable. Since receipts from customers generally lag
payroll to temporary employees, working capital requirements increase substantially in periods of
growth. As highlighted in the consolidated statements of cash flows, our liquidity and available
capital resources are impacted by four key components: cash and equivalents, operating activities,
investing activities and financing activities.
Cash and Equivalents
Cash and equivalents totaled $60 million at the end of the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of $21
million from the $81 million at year-end 2010. As further described below, we used $5 million of
cash in operating activities, $3 million of cash in investing activities and $16 million of cash in
financing activities.
Operating Activities
In the first quarter of 2011, we used $5 million of cash for operating activities, as compared to
using $19 million in the first quarter of 2010. The decreased use of cash was due to working
capital requirements increasing less in the first quarter of 2011 as compared to the first quarter
of 2010.
Trade accounts receivable totaled $876 million at the end of the first quarter of 2011. Global
days sales outstanding were 52 days at the end of the first quarter of 2011 and 51 days at the end
of the first quarter of 2010.
Our working capital position was $385 million at the end of the first quarter of 2011, an increase
of $17 million from year-end 2010. The current ratio was 1.6 at the end of the first quarter of
2011 and year-end 2010.
20
Table of Contents
Investing Activities
In the first quarter of 2011, we used $3 million of cash for investing activities, compared to $1
million in the first quarter of 2010. Capital expenditures in both years relate primarily to the
Companys information technology programs.
Financing Activities
In the first quarter of 2011, we used $16 million of cash for financing activities, compared to $11
million in the first quarter of 2010. Debt totaled $65 million at the end of the first quarter of
2011, compared to $79 million at year-end 2010. Debt-to-total capital (total debt reported on the
balance sheet divided by total debt plus stockholders equity) is a common ratio to measure the
relative capital structure and leverage of the Company. Our ratio of debt-to-total capital
was 9.4% at the end of the first quarter of 2011 and 11.2% at year-end 2010.
To take advantage of improved conditions in the credit markets and obtain more favorable pricing
and flexible terms and conditions, effective March 31, 2011, we refinanced our secured revolving
credit facility and securitization facility. Our new revolver has total capacity of $150 million
and carries a term of five years, maturing March 31, 2016. The new securitization facility carries
a three-year term and has a total capacity of $150 million. Additionally, during March, we repaid
term debt of $63 million.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
There are no material changes in our obligations and commitments to make future payments from those
included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 17, 2011. We have no material,
unrecorded commitments, losses, contingencies or guarantees associated with any related parties or
unconsolidated entities.
Liquidity
We expect to meet our ongoing short- and long-term cash requirements principally through cash
generated from operations, available cash and equivalents, securitization and committed unused
credit facilities. Additional funding sources could include public or private bonds, asset-based
lending, additional bank facilities or other sources.
We utilize intercompany loans, dividends, capital contributions and redemptions, and a
multi-national cash pool to effectively manage our cash on a global basis. At the present time, we
do not have plans to repatriate the majority of our international excess cash balances. As our
business recovers, we expect this international cash will be needed to fund working capital growth
in our local operations. The majority of our international cash was invested in our cash pool and
was available to fund general corporate needs domestically and internationally. There are no
significant restrictions on our ability to utilize the cash pool, and we did so throughout the year
as necessary. As our global cash position improved in the first quarter of 2011, funds from the
cash pool were used to help finance reductions of debt.
We manage our cash and debt very closely to optimize our capital structure. As our cash balances
build, we tend to pay down debt as appropriate. Conversely, when working capital needs grow, we
tend to use corporate cash and cash available in the cash pool first, and then access our borrowing
facilities.
As of April 3, 2011, we had $133.6 million of available capacity on our $150 million revolving
credit facility and $50.4 million of available capacity on our $150 million securitization
facility. The securitization facility carried $49.0 million of short-term borrowings and $50.6
million of standby letters of credit related to workers compensation. Together, the revolving
credit and securitization facilities provide the Company with committed funding capacity that may
be used for general corporate purposes. While we believe these facilities will cover our working
capital needs over the short term, if economic conditions or operating results change
significantly, we may need to seek additional sources of funds.
We monitor the credit ratings of our major banking partners on a regular basis. We also have
regular discussions with them. Based on our reviews and communications, we believe the risk of one
or more of our banks not being able to honor their commitments is insignificant. We also review
the ratings and holdings of our money market funds and other investment vehicles regularly to
ensure high credit quality and access to our invested cash.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include
statements which are predictive in nature, which depend upon or refer to future events or
conditions, or which include words such as expects, anticipates, intends, plans,
believes, estimates, or variations or negatives thereof or by similar or comparable words or
phrases. In addition, any statements concerning future financial performance (including future
revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible future
actions by us that may be provided by management are also forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events
and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions about our company and economic and market
factors in the countries in which we do business, among other things. These statements are not
guarantees of future performance, and we have no specific intention to update these statements.
Actual events and results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in
forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. The principal important risk factors that
could cause our actual performance and future events and actions to differ materially from such
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, competitive market pressures including
pricing, changing market and economic conditions, our ability to achieve our business strategy,
including our ability to successfully expand into new markets and service lines, material changes
in demand from or loss of large corporate customers, further impairment charges initiated by
adverse industry or market developments, unexpected termination of customer contracts, availability
of temporary workers with appropriate skills required by customers, liabilities for
employment-related claims and losses, including class action lawsuits, unexpected changes in claim trends on workers compensation and benefit plans, our ability to maintain
specified financial covenants in our bank facilities, our ability to access credit markets and
continued availability of financing for funding working capital, our ability to sustain critical
business applications through our key data centers, our ability to effectively implement and manage
our information technology programs, our ability to retain the services of our senior management,
local management and field personnel, the impact of changes in laws and regulations (including
federal, state and international tax laws), the net financial impact of recent U.S. healthcare
legislation on our business, and risks associated with conducting business in foreign countries,
including foreign currency fluctuations. Certain risk factors are discussed more fully under Risk
Factors in Part I, Item 1A of the Companys Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk primarily due to its net investment in foreign
subsidiaries, which conduct business in their local currencies. The Company may also utilize local
currency-denominated borrowings.
The Company has a forward foreign currency exchange contract that was initially used to offset the
variability in exchange rates on its yen-denominated debt. Following the payment of this debt in
the first quarter of 2011, the Company entered into an opposite foreign currency exchange contract
to eliminate the residual foreign currency risk. By using these derivative instruments to hedge
exposures to foreign exchange risk, the Company exposes itself to credit risk and market risk. To
mitigate the credit risk, which is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of
the contract, the Company places hedging instruments with different investment grade-rated
counterparties that the Company believes are minimal credit risk. To manage market risk, which is
the change in the value of the contract that results from a change in foreign exchange rate, the
Company has matched the two forward contracts. As a result, the Company is not exposed to market
risk on these remaining contracts. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial
instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

In addition, the Company is exposed to interest rate risks through its use of the multi-currency
line of credit and other borrowings. A hypothetical fluctuation of 10% of market interest rates
would not have a material impact on 2011 first quarter earnings.
Marketable equity investments, representing our investment in Temp Holdings, are stated at fair
value and marked to market through stockholders equity, net of tax. Impairments in value below
historical cost, if any, deemed to be other than temporary, would be expensed in the consolidated
statement of earnings. See the Fair Value Measurements footnote in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion.
The Company is exposed to market risk as a result of its obligation to pay benefits under its
nonqualified deferred compensation plan and its related investments in company-owned variable
universal life insurance policies. The obligation to employees increases and decreases based on
movements in the equity and debt markets. The investments in mutual funds, as part of the
company-owned variable universal life insurance policies, are designed to mitigate, but not
eliminate, this risk with offsetting gains and losses.
Overall, the Companys holdings and positions in market risk-sensitive instruments do not subject
the Company to material risk.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the Companys
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) are effective.
There were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the Companys most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. |
The Company is the subject of two pending class action lawsuits. The two lawsuits, Fuller v. Kelly
Services, Inc. and Kelly Home Care Services, Inc., pending in the Superior Court of California, Los
Angeles, and Sullivan v. Kelly Services, Inc., pending in the U.S. District Court Southern District
of California, both involve claims for monetary damages by current and former temporary employees
working in the State of California.
The Fuller matter involves claims relating to alleged misclassification of personal attendants as
exempt and not entitled to overtime compensation under state law and to alleged technical
violations of a state law governing the content of employee pay stubs. On April 30, 2007, the
Court in the Fuller case certified both plaintiff classes involved in the suit. In the third
quarter of 2008, Kelly was granted a hearing date for its motions related to summary judgment on
both certified claims. On March 13, 2009, the Court granted Kellys motion for decertification of
the classes. Plaintiffs filed a petition for review on April 3, 2009 requesting the
decertification ruling be overturned. Plaintiffs request was granted on May 17, 2010 and the suit
was recertified as a class action. The Sullivan matter relates to claims by temporary workers for
compensation while interviewing for assignments. On April 27, 2010, the Court in the Sullivan
matter certified the lawsuit as a class action. The parties have submitted a proposed settlement
to the Court for final approval.
The Company is also involved in a number of other lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of its
business, typically employment discrimination and wage and hour matters. While management does not
expect any of these other matters to have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of
operations, financial position or cash flows, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and
the Company is not at this time able to predict the outcome of these matters. It is reasonably
possible that some matters could be decided unfavorably to the Company and, if so, could have a
material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.
