Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations. Robert Half International Inc. (the “Company”) provides specialized staffing and risk consulting services through such divisions as Accountemps^®, Robert Half^® Finance & Accounting, OfficeTeam^®, Robert Half^® Technology, Robert Half^® Management Resources, Robert Half^® Legal, The Creative Group^®, and Protiviti^®. The Company, through its Accountemps, Robert Half Finance & Accounting, and Robert Half Management Resources divisions, is a specialized provider of temporary, full-time, and project professionals in the fields of accounting and finance. OfficeTeam specializes in highly skilled temporary administrative support personnel. Robert Half Technology provides information technology professionals. Robert Half Legal provides temporary, project, and full-time staffing of attorneys and specialized support personnel within law firms and corporate legal departments. The Creative Group provides project staffing in the advertising, marketing, and web design fields. Protiviti provides business consulting and internal audit services, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Revenues are predominantly derived from specialized staffing services. The Company operates in North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. The Company is a Delaware corporation.

Basis of Presentation. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”) of the Company are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The comparative year-end condensed consolidated statement of financial position data presented was derived from audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in its annual report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of, nor comparable to, the results of operations for a full year.

Principles of Consolidation. The Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. As of March 31, 2012, such estimates included allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable, workers’ compensation losses, and income and other taxes. Management estimates are also utilized in the Company’s goodwill impairment assessment.

Advertising Costs. The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in the following table (in thousands):

Internal-use Software. The Company capitalizes direct costs incurred in the development of internal-use software. Amounts capitalized are reported as a component of computer software within property and equipment. Internal-use software development costs capitalized for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in the following table (in thousands):

Note B—New Accounting Pronouncements

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in GAAP and international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”). The amendments explain how to measure fair value and will improve the comparability of fair value measurement presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and IFRS. This authoritative guidance is to be applied prospectively and is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance during the three months ended March 31, 2012, did not have an impact on the Company’s Financial Statements.

Comprehensive Income. In June 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which allows an entity the option to present net income, and comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This authoritative guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholder’s equity. This authoritative guidance is to be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Except for presentation requirements, the adoption of this guidance during the three months ended March 31, 2012, did not have an impact on the Company’s Financial Statements. In December 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to defer only those changes related to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. The amendments are being made to allow the FASB time to reconsider whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented.

Testing Goodwill for Impairment. In August 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which is intended to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment by permitting an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This authoritative guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance during the three months ended March 31, 2012, did not have an impact on the Company’s Financial Statements.

Note B—New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

Balance Sheet Disclosures. In December 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance in regards to the presentation of netting assets and liabilities of financial and derivative instruments as a single amount in the statement of financial position to address the difference between GAAP and IFRS. This authoritative guidance is to be applied for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on its Financial Statements.

Note G—Commitments and Contingencies

On September 10, 2004, Plaintiff Mark Laffitte, on behalf of himself and a putative class of salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers, filed a complaint in California Superior Court naming the Company and three of its wholly owned subsidiaries as Defendants. The complaint alleges that salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers based in California have been misclassified under California law as exempt employees and seeks an unspecified amount for unpaid overtime pay alleged to be due to them had they been paid as non-exempt hourly employees. In addition, the Plaintiff seeks an unspecified amount for statutory penalties for alleged violations of the California Labor Code arising from the alleged misclassification of these employees as exempt employees. On September 18, 2006, the Court issued an order certifying a class with respect to claims for alleged unpaid overtime pay and related statutory penalties but denied certification with respect to claims relating to meal periods and rest time breaks. The stay of proceedings previously entered in this matter was lifted on March 1, 2012 and litigation has resumed. This case is set for voluntary mediation on June 18, 2012. There is no assurance that this case will settle at the mediation. A previous voluntary mediation of this case on August 10, 2010, did not result in a settlement. If settled at mediation, the amounts paid by the Company may be material. At this stage of the litigation, it is not feasible to predict the outcome of or a range of loss, should a loss occur, from this proceeding, and accordingly, no amounts have been provided in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations, and the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against the litigation.

On February 23, 2011, Plaintiff Isabel Apolinario, on behalf of herself and a putative class of salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers, filed a complaint in California Superior Court naming the Company and three of its wholly owned subsidiaries as Defendants. The complaint alleges that salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers based in California have been misclassified under California law as exempt employees and seeks an unspecified amount for unpaid overtime pay alleged to be due to them had they been paid as non-exempt hourly employees. In addition, the Plaintiff seeks an unspecified amount for statutory penalties for alleged violations of the California Labor Code arising from the alleged misclassification of these employees as exempt employees.

case will settle at the mediation. If settled at mediation, the amounts paid by the Company may be material. At this stage of the litigation, it is not feasible to predict the outcome of or a range of loss, should a loss occur, from this proceeding, and accordingly, no amounts have been provided in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations in this case, and the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against the litigation.

On September 24, 2007, Plaintiff Van Williamson, on behalf of himself and a putative class of salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers, filed a complaint in California Superior Court naming the Company and three of its wholly owned subsidiaries as Defendants. The complaint alleges that salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers based in California were not provided meal periods, paid rest periods, and accurate itemized wage statements. It seeks one hour of wages for each employee for each meal and rest period missed during the statutory liability period. It also seeks an unspecified amount for statutory penalties for alleged violations of the California Labor Code arising from the alleged failure to provide the meal and rest periods and accurate itemized wage statements. The stay of proceedings previously entered in this matter was lifted on April 12, 2012. This case is set for voluntary mediation on June 18, 2012. There is no assurance that this case will settle at the mediation. A previous voluntary mediation of this case on August 10, 2010, did not result in a settlement. If settled at mediation, the amounts paid by the Company may be material. At this stage of the litigation, it is not feasible to predict the outcome of or a range of loss, should a loss occur, from this proceeding, and accordingly, no amounts have been provided in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations, and the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against the litigation.

On April 23, 2010, Plaintiffs David Opalinski and James McCabe, on behalf of themselves and a putative class of similarly situated Staffing Managers, filed a Complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey naming the Company and one of its subsidiaries as Defendants. The Complaint alleges that salaried Staffing Managers located throughout the U.S. have been misclassified as exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act’s overtime pay requirements. Plaintiffs seek an unspecified amount for unpaid overtime on behalf of themselves and the class they purport to represent. Plaintiffs also seek an unspecified amount for statutory penalties, attorneys’ fees and other damages. On October 6, 2011, the Court granted the Company’s motion to compel arbitration of the Plaintiffs’ allegations. At this stage, it is not feasible to predict the outcome of or a range of loss, should a loss occur, from these allegations and, accordingly, no amounts have been provided in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations, and the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against the allegations.

The Company is involved in a number of other lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. While management does not expect any of these other matters to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows, litigation is subject to certain inherent uncertainties.

Legal costs associated with the resolution of claims, lawsuits and other contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Note H—Stockholders’ Equity

Stock Repurchase Program. As of March 31, 2012, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, up to 5.1 million additional shares of the Company’s common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions. The number and the cost of common stock shares repurchased during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in the following table (in thousands):

Additional stock repurchases were made in connection with employee stock plans, whereby Company shares were tendered by employees for the payment of exercise price and applicable statutory withholding taxes. Repurchases of shares are funded with cash generated from operations. The number and the cost of employee stock plan repurchases made during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in the following table (in thousands):

The repurchased shares are held in treasury and are presented as if constructively retired. Treasury stock is accounted for using the cost method. Treasury stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 (consisting of stock option exercises and the purchase of shares for the treasury) is presented in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.

Cash Dividends. The Company’s Board of Directors may at their discretion declare and pay dividends upon the shares of the Company’s stock either out of the Company’s retained earnings or capital surplus. The cash dividends declared during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in the following table:

Repurchases of shares and issuances of cash dividends are applied first to the extent of retained earnings and any remaining amounts are applied to capital surplus. As a result, the Company had no retained earnings as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Note I—Stock Plans

Under various stock plans, officers, employees and outside directors have received or may receive grants of restricted stock, stock units, stock appreciation rights or options to purchase common stock. Grants have been made at the discretion of the Committees of the Board of Directors. Grants generally vest over four years. Shares offered under the plan are authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares.

March 31, 2012

Note I—Stock Plans (Continued)

Options currently outstanding under the plans have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant and consist of non-statutory stock options under the Internal Revenue Code, and generally have a term of 10 years.

Recipients of restricted stock do not pay any cash consideration to the Company for the shares, have the right to vote all shares subject to such grant, and for grants made prior to July 28, 2009, receive all dividends with respect to such shares on the dividend payment dates, whether or not the shares have vested as long as any performance condition has been met. Restricted stock grants made on or after July 28, 2009, contain forfeitable rights to dividends. Dividends for these grants are accrued on the dividend payment dates but are not paid until the shares vest, and dividends accrued for shares that ultimately do not vest are forfeited. Recipients of stock units do not pay any cash consideration for the units, do not have the right to vote, and do not receive dividends with respect to such units. Compensation expense for restricted stock and stock units is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the stock’s fair market value on the grant date. For restricted stock grants issued with performance conditions, compensation expense is recognized over each vesting tranche.

Note J—Net Income Per Share

The calculation of net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is reflected in the following table (in thousands, except per share amounts):

March 31, 2012

Note J—Net Income Per Share (Continued)

Potential common shares include the dilutive effect of stock options, unvested performance-based restricted stock, restricted stock which contain forfeitable rights to dividends, and stock units. The weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, excludes the effect of the following (in thousands):

Employee stock options will have a dilutive effect under the treasury method only when the respective period’s average market value of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise proceeds. Under the treasury method, exercise proceeds include the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in capital surplus, if the options were exercised and the stock units and performance-based restricted stock had vested.

Note K—Business Segments

The Company, which aggregates its operating segments based on the nature of services, has three reportable segments: temporary and consultant staffing, permanent placement staffing, and risk consulting and internal audit services. The temporary and consultant segment provides specialized staffing in the accounting and finance, administrative and office, information technology, legal, advertising, marketing and web design fields. The permanent placement segment provides full-time personnel in the accounting, finance, administrative and office, and information technology fields. The risk consulting segment provides business and technology risk consulting and internal audit services.

The accounting policies of the segments are set forth in Note A—“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company evaluates performance based on income or loss from operations before net interest income, intangible amortization expense, and income taxes.

Note L—Subsequent Events

On May 2, 2012, the Company announced the following:

15

Certain information contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis and in other parts of this report may be deemed forward-looking statements regarding events and financial trends that may affect the Company’s future operating results or financial positions. These statements may be identified by words such as “estimate”, “forecast”, “project”, “plan”, “intend”, “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, or variations or negatives thereof or by similar or comparable words or phrases. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the global financial and economic situation; changes in levels of unemployment and other economic conditions in the United States or foreign countries where the Company does business, or in particular regions or industries; reduction in the supply of candidates for temporary employment or the Company’s ability to attract candidates; the entry of new competitors into the marketplace or expansion by existing competitors; the ability of the Company to maintain existing client relationships and attract new clients in the context of changing economic or competitive conditions; the impact of competitive pressures, including any change in the demand for the Company’s services, on the Company’s ability to maintain its margins; the possibility of the Company incurring liability for its activities, including the activities of its temporary employees, or for events impacting its temporary employees on clients’ premises; the possibility that adverse publicity could impact the Company’s ability to attract and retain clients and candidates; the success of the Company in attracting, training, and retaining qualified management personnel and other staff employees; the Company’s ability to comply with governmental regulations affecting personnel services businesses in particular or employer/employee relationships in general; whether there will be ongoing demand for Sarbanes-Oxley or other regulatory compliance services; the Company’s reliance on short-term contracts for a significant percentage of its business; litigation relating to prior or current transactions or activities, including litigation that may be disclosed from time to time in the Company’s SEC filings; the ability of the Company to manage its international operations and comply with foreign laws and regulations; the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; the possibility that the additional costs the Company will incur as a result of health care reform legislation may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s profit margins or the demand for the Company’s services; the possibility that the additional costs the Company will incur as a result of other government legislation or regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s profit margins or the demand for the Company’s services; the possibility that the Company’s computer and communications hardware and software systems could be damaged or their service interrupted; and the possibility that the Company may fail to maintain adequate financial and management controls and as a result suffer errors in its financial reporting. Additionally, with respect to Protiviti, other risks and uncertainties include the fact that future success will depend on its ability to retain employees and attract clients; there can be no assurance that there will be ongoing demand for Sarbanes-Oxley or other regulatory compliance services; failure to produce projected revenues could adversely affect financial results; and there is the possibility of involvement in litigation relating to prior or current transactions or activities. Because long-term contracts are not a significant part of the Company’s business, future results cannot be reliably predicted by considering past trends or extrapolating past results.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s most critical accounting policies and estimates are those that involve subjective decisions or assessments and are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There were no material changes to these critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note B—“New Accounting Pronouncements” to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under Part I—Item 1 of this report.

Results of Operations

Demand for the Company’s temporary and permanent placement staffing services and risk consulting and internal audit services is largely dependent upon general economic and labor market conditions both domestically and abroad. Correspondingly, results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012, were positively impacted by improving global economic conditions. Because of the inherent difficulty in predicting economic trends and the absence of material long-term contracts in any of our business units, future demand for the Company’s services cannot be forecasted with certainty. We expect total Company results to continue to be impacted by general macroeconomic conditions in 2012.

The Company’s temporary and permanent placement staffing services business has more than 350 offices in 42 states, the District of Columbia and 19 foreign countries, while Protiviti has 59 offices in 23 states and 12 foreign countries.

Because fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have an impact on the Company’s results, the Company provides selected growth percentages below on a constant-currency basis. Constant-currency percentages are calculated using as-reported amounts which have been retranslated using foreign currency exchange rates from the prior year’s comparable period.

Three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Revenues. The Company’s revenues were $1.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 15% compared to $881 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Revenues from foreign operations represented 28% of total revenues for three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to 31% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company analyzes its revenues for three reportable segments: temporary and consultant staffing, permanent placement staffing, and risk consulting and internal audit services. In the first quarter of 2012, revenues for all three of the Company’s reportable segments were up compared to the first quarter of 2011. Contributing factors for each reportable segment are discussed below in further detail.

Temporary and consultant staffing services revenues were $830 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 16% compared to revenues of $715 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On a constant-currency basis, temporary and consultant staffing services revenues increased 17% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. In the U.S., revenues in the first quarter of 2012 increased 20% compared to the first quarter of 2011. The Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services revenues from foreign operations increased 6% compared to the first quarter of 2011. On a constant-currency basis, the Company’s revenues from foreign operations increased 9% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Permanent placement staffing revenues were $83 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 23% compared to revenues of $68 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On a constant-currency basis, permanent placement revenues increased 24% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. In the U.S., revenues in the first quarter of 2012 increased 29% compared to the first quarter of 2011. Historically, demand for permanent placement services is even more sensitive to economic and labor market conditions than demand for temporary and consulting staffing services and this is expected to continue. The Company’s permanent placement staffing services revenues from foreign operations increased 15% compared to the first quarter of 2011. On a constant-currency basis, the Company’s revenues from foreign operations increased 18% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Risk consulting and internal audit services revenues were $103 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 4% compared to revenues of $98 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On a constant-currency basis, risk consulting and internal audit services revenues increased 5% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Contributing to the increase were the improved economic conditions in U.S. In the U.S., revenues in the first quarter of 2012 increased 9% compared to the first quarter of

17

2011. The Company’s risk consulting and internal audit services revenues from foreign operations decreased 7% compared to the first quarter of 2011. On a constant-currency basis, the Company’s revenues from foreign operations decreased 6% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Gross Margin. The Company’s gross margin dollars were $402 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 19% compared to $338 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. In the first quarter of 2012, gross margin dollars increased for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services and permanent placement staffing segments and decreased for risk consulting and internal audit services compared to the first quarter of 2011. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues increased for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services segment and decreased for the risk consulting and internal audit services division on a year-over-year basis. Contributing factors for each reportable segment are discussed below in further detail.

Gross margin dollars from the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services represent revenues less direct costs of services, which consist of payroll, payroll taxes and insurance costs for temporary employees, and reimbursable expenses. Gross margin dollars for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services division were $295 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 20% compared to $246 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On a constant-currency basis, temporary and consultant staffing services gross margin dollars increased 21% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. As a percentage of revenues, gross margin for temporary and consultant staffing services was 35.6% in the first quarter of 2012, up from 34.4% in the first quarter of 2011. The higher temporary and consultant gross margin percentage is primarily the result of higher bill rates and higher conversion revenues. Conversion revenues are earned when a temporary position converts to a permanent position. As there are no direct costs related to conversion revenues, the gross margin percentage is favorably impacted as the mix of conversion revenues increase.

Gross margin dollars from permanent placement staffing services represent revenues less reimbursable expenses. Gross margin dollars for the Company’s permanent placement staffing division were $83 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 23% compared to $67 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On a constant-currency basis, permanent placement gross margin dollars increased 24% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Because reimbursable expenses for permanent placement staffing services are de minimis, the increase in gross margin dollars is substantially explained by the increase in revenues previously discussed.

Gross margin dollars for risk consulting and internal audit services represent revenues less direct costs of services, which consist primarily of professional staff payroll, payroll taxes, insurance costs and reimbursable expenses. Gross margin dollars for the Company’s risk consulting and internal audit division were $24 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, decreasing by 4% compared to $25 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On a constant-currency basis, risk consulting and internal audit gross margin dollars decreased 4% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. As a percentage of revenues, gross margin for risk consulting and internal audit services was 23.1% in the first quarter of 2012, down from 25.2% in the first quarter of 2011. The year-over-year margin decrease is primarily due to lower staff utilization levels outside of the United States.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses were $322 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 10% compared to $294 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, the Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses were 31.7% for the first quarter of 2012, down from 33.3% for the first quarter of 2011. For the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services and permanent placement staffing segments and remained flat for risk consulting and internal audit services. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased for all three of the Company’s reportable segments in the first

18

quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Contributing factors for each reportable segment are discussed below in further detail.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services division were $226 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, up 9% from $208 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for temporary and consultant staffing services were 27.3% in the first quarter of 2012, down from 29.0% in the first quarter of 2011. For the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011, the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to the higher operating leverage obtained by higher revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company’s permanent placement staffing division were $70 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 16% compared to $60 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for permanent placement staffing services were 83.9% in the first quarter of 2012, down from 88.3% in the first quarter of 2011. For the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011, improved leverage in general and administrative expenses, as a result of higher revenue, drove the overall decrease as a percentage of revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company’s risk consulting and internal audit services division were $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, which remained flat compared to $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for risk consulting and internal audit services were 25.4% in the first quarter of 2012, down from 26.7% compared to the first quarter of 2011. For the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011, the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to higher operating leverage obtained by higher revenues.

Operating Income. The Company’s total operating income was $80 million, or 7.9% of revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increasing by 80% from $44 million, or 5.0% of revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services division, operating income was $69 million, or 8.3% of applicable revenues, up from $38 million, or 5.3% of applicable revenues, in the first quarter of 2011. For the Company’s permanent placement staffing division, operating income was $13 million, or 16.0% of applicable revenues, up from an operating income of $8 million, or 11.6% of applicable revenues, in the first quarter of 2011. For the Company’s risk consulting and internal audit services division, operating loss was $2 million, or negative 2.3% of applicable revenues, which remained flat from an operating loss of $2 million, or negative 1.6% of applicable revenues, in the first quarter of 2011.

Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes was 40% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The change in the Company’s liquidity during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is primarily the net effect of funds generated by operations and the funds used for capital expenditures, repurchases of common stock and payment of dividends.

Cash and cash equivalents were $244 million and $282 million at March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Operating activities provided $23 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012, which was more than offset by $12 million and $49 million of net cash used in investing activities and financing activities, respectively. Operating activities provided $19 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011, which was more than offset by $16 million and $41 million of net cash used in investing activities and financing activities, respectively.

19

Operating activities—Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was comprised of net income of $48 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $20 million, and offset by changes in working capital of $45 million. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was composed of net income of $27 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $18 million, and net cash provided by changes in working capital of $26 million.

Investing activities—Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $12 million. This was comprised of capital expenditures of $10 million and deposits to trusts for employee benefits and retirement plans of $2 million. Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $16 million. This was composed of capital expenditures of $15 million and deposits to trusts for employee benefits and retirement plans of $1 million.

Financing activities—Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $49 million. This included repurchases of $56 million in common stock and $21 million in cash dividends to stockholders, offset by proceeds of $26 million from exercises of stock options and $2 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $41 million. This included repurchases of $31 million in common stock and $20 million in cash dividends to stockholders, offset by proceeds of $10 million from exercise of stock options.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, up to 5.1 million additional shares of the Company’s common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares of common stock on the open market for a total cost of $29 million and $30 million, respectively. Additional stock repurchases were made in connection with employee stock plans, whereby Company shares were tendered by employees for the payment of exercise price and applicable statutory withholding taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, such repurchases totaled 909 thousand shares, at a cost of $27 million, and 45 thousand shares, at a cost of $1 million. Repurchases of shares have been funded with cash generated from operations.

The Company’s working capital at March 31, 2012, included $244 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company expects that internally generated cash will be sufficient to support the working capital needs of the Company, the Company’s fixed payments, dividends, and other obligations on both a short- and long-term basis.

On May 2, 2012, the Company announced a quarterly dividend of $.15 per share to be paid to all shareholders of record as of May 25, 2012. The dividend will be paid on June 15, 2012.

The Company is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. The Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Exchange rates impact the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s reported earnings, investments in its foreign subsidiaries, and the intercompany transactions with its foreign subsidiaries.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, approximately 28% of the Company’s revenues were generated outside of the U.S. These operations transact business in their functional currency. As a result, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, particularly the Canadian dollar, British pound, and Euro, have an impact on the Company’s reported results. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the monthly average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Consequently, as the value of the U.S. dollar changes relative to the currencies of the Company’s non-U.S. markets, the Company’s reported results vary.

20

Fluctuations in currency exchange rates impact the U.S. dollar amount of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at period end. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Management, including the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files and submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

On September 10, 2004, Plaintiff Mark Laffitte, on behalf of himself and a putative class of salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers, filed a complaint in California Superior Court naming the Company and three of its wholly owned subsidiaries as Defendants. The complaint alleges that salaried Account Executives and Staffing Managers based in California have been misclassified under California law as exempt employees and seeks an unspecified amount for unpaid overtime pay alleged to be due to them had they been paid as non-exempt hourly employees. In addition, the Plaintiff seeks an unspecified amount for statutory penalties for alleged violations of the California Labor Code arising from the alleged misclassification of these employees as exempt employees. On September 18, 2006, the Court issued an order certifying a class with respect to claims for alleged unpaid overtime pay and related statutory penalties but denied certification with respect to claims relating to meal periods and rest time breaks. The stay of proceedings previously entered in this matter was lifted on March 1, 2012 and litigation has resumed. This case is set for voluntary mediation on June 18, 2012. There is no assurance that this case will settle at the mediation. A previous voluntary mediation of this case on August 10, 2010, did not result in a settlement. If settled at mediation, the amounts paid by the Company may be material. At this stage of the litigation, it is not feasible to predict the outcome of or a range of loss, should a loss occur, from this proceeding, and accordingly, no amounts have been provided in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations, and the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against the litigation.
