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, 2013, 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 June 30, 2014, 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 and in the valuation of stock grants subject to market conditions.

Advertising Costs. The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, 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.

Note B—New Accounting Pronouncements

Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance in regards to the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. The amendments in the authoritative guidance are effective in the first quarter of 2015 for public organizations with calendar year-ends. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its Financial Statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The standard provides companies with a single model for use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific revenue guidance. ASU 2014-09 requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. It also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The guidance permits companies to either apply the requirements retrospectively to all prior periods presented, or apply the requirements in the year of adoption, through a cumulative adjustment. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on its Financial Statements.

Note G—Commitments and Contingencies

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.

On March 13, 2014, Plaintiff Leonor Rodriguez, on her own behalf and on behalf of a putative class of allegedly similarly situated individuals, filed a complaint against the Company in the Superior Court of California, San Diego County. The complaint alleges that a putative class of current and former employees of the Company working in California since March 13, 2011 were denied compensation for the time they spent interviewing with clients of the Company as well as performing activities related to the interview process. Rodriguez seeks recovery on her own behalf and on behalf of the putative class in an unspecified amount for this allegedly unpaid compensation. Rodriguez also seeks recovery of an unspecified amount for the alleged failure of the Company to provide her and the putative class with accurate wage statements. Rodriguez also seeks an unspecified amount of other damages, attorneys’ fees, and statutory penalties, including but not limited to statutory penalties on behalf of herself and other allegedly “aggrieved employees” as defined by California’s Labor Code Private Attorney General Act. 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 vigorously defend against the litigation.

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 June 30, 2014, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, up to 6.8 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 six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are reflected in the following table (in thousands):

Note K—Subsequent Events

On July 29, 2014, the Company announced the following:

13

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 Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 adversely affect 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, 2013. Other than updates to estimates used in the Company’s annual goodwill impairment assessment discussed below, there were no material changes to these critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Goodwill Impairment. The Company assesses the impairment of goodwill annually in the second quarter, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) authoritative guidance. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2014, and determined that no adjustment to the carrying value of goodwill was required.

The Company follows FASB authoritative guidance utilizing a two-step approach for determining goodwill impairment. In the first step the Company determines the fair value of each reporting unit utilizing a present

14

value technique derived from a discounted cash flow methodology. For purposes of this assessment the Company’s reporting units are its lines of business. The fair value of the reporting unit is then compared to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. The second step under the FASB guidance is contingent upon the results of the first step. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and the Company must perform a second, more detailed impairment assessment. The second step involves allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to its net assets in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the assessment date. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is then compared to the carrying amount of goodwill to quantify an impairment charge, if any, as of the assessment date.

The Company’s reporting units are Accountemps, Robert Half Finance & Accounting, OfficeTeam, Robert Half Technology, Robert Half Management Resources and Protiviti, which had goodwill balances at June 30, 2014, of $127.5 million, $26.6 million, $0 million, $7.2 million, $0 million and $39.6 million, respectively, totaling $200.9 million. There were no changes to the Company’s reporting units or to the allocations of goodwill by reporting unit for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

The goodwill impairment assessment is based upon a discounted cash flow analysis. The estimate of future cash flows is based upon, among other things, a discount rate and certain assumptions about expected future operating performance. The discount rate for all reporting units was determined by management based on estimates of risk free interest rates, beta and market risk premiums. The discount rate used was compared to the rate published in various third party research reports, which indicated that the rate was within a range of reasonableness. The primary assumptions related to future operating performance include revenue growth rates and profitability levels. In addition, the impairment assessment requires that management make certain judgments in allocating shared assets and liabilities to the balance sheets of the reporting units. Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations described above related to its annual goodwill impairment testing, the Company made the following assumptions. The Company assumed that year-to-date trends through the date of the most recent assessment would continue for all reporting units through 2015, using unique assumptions for each reporting unit. In addition, the Company applied profitability assumptions consistent with each reporting unit’s historical trends at various revenue levels and, for years 2016 and beyond, used a 5% growth factor. This rate is comparable to the Company’s most recent ten-year annual compound revenue growth rate. The model used to calculate fair value goes out a total of 10 years with a terminal value calculation at the end of the 10 year period. In its most recent calculation, the Company used a 10.2% discount rate, which is slightly lower than the 10.5% discount rate used for the Company’s test during the second quarter of 2013. This decrease in discount rate is attributable to decreases in the risk free rate, beta and the equity market risk premium.

In order to evaluate the sensitivity of the fair value calculations on the goodwill impairment test, the Company applied hypothetical decreases to the fair values of each reporting unit. The Company determined that hypothetical decreases in fair value of at least 70% would be required before any reporting unit would have a carrying value in excess of its fair value.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on the Company’s business, there can be no assurance that the Company’s estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If the Company’s assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or profitability growth rates of certain reporting units are not achieved, the Company may be required to recognize goodwill impairment charges in future periods. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

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. 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 2014.

The Company’s temporary and permanent placement staffing services business has 342 offices in 42 states, the District of Columbia and 18 foreign countries, while Protiviti has 59 offices in 23 states and 11 foreign countries.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To help readers understand the Company’s financial performance, the Company supplements its financial results prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) with revenue growth rates derived from non-GAAP revenue amounts. Variations in the Company’s financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and billing days. The Company provides “same billing days and constant currency” revenue growth calculations to remove the impact of these items. These calculations show the year-over-year revenue growth rates for the Company’s reportable segments on both a reported basis and also on a same-day, constant-currency basis for global, U.S. and international operations. The Company has provided this data because management believes it better reflects the Company’s actual revenue growth rates and aids in evaluating revenue trends over time. The Company expresses year-over-year revenue changes as calculated percentages using the same number of billing days and constant currency exchange rates.

In order to calculate constant currency revenue growth rates, as-reported amounts are retranslated using foreign currency exchange rates from the prior year’s comparable period. Management calculates a global, weighted-average number of billing days for each reporting period based upon input from all countries and all lines of business. In order to remove the fluctuations caused by comparable periods having different billing days, the Company calculates same billing day revenue growth rates by dividing each comparative period’s reported revenues by the calculated number of billing days for that period, to arrive at a per billing day amount. Same billing day growth rates are then calculated based upon the per billing day amounts. The term “same billing days and constant currency” means that the impact of different billing days has been removed from the constant currency calculation.

The non-GAAP financial measures provided herein may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in the Company’s industry, as other companies may calculate such financial results differently. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to actual revenue growth derived from revenue amounts presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not consider these non-GAAP financial measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results. A reconciliation of the same-day, constant-currency revenue growth rates to the as-reported revenue growth rates is provided herein.

Three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

Revenues. The Company’s revenues were $1.16 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $1.06 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Revenues from foreign operations represented 23.2% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 24.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company analyzes its revenues for three reportable segments: temporary and consultant staffing, permanent placement staffing, and risk consulting and internal audit services. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, revenues for each of the Company’s reportable segments were up compared to the same period in 2013. The Company’s growth was broad-based and reflective of improving labor markets and higher global demand for its professional staffing services. Year-over-year revenue growth rates accelerated during the quarter both in the United States and in our international operations. Risk consulting and internal audit services also continued to post strong operating results. Contributing factors for each reportable segment are discussed below in further detail.

Temporary and consultant staffing services revenues were $911 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 8.2% compared to revenues of $842 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. On a same-day, constant-currency basis, temporary and consultant staffing services revenues increased 8.3% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013. In the U.S., revenues in the second quarter of 2014 increased 9.3%, or 9.8% on a same-day basis, compared to the second quarter of 2013. For the Company’s international operations, 2014 second quarter revenues increased 4.6%, and on a same-day, constant-currency basis increased 3.3%, compared to the second quarter of 2013.

Permanent placement staffing revenues were $103 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 13.8% compared to revenues of $90 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. On a same-day, constant-currency basis, permanent placement revenues increased 14.2% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013. In the U.S., revenues for the second quarter of 2014 increased 15.8%, or 16.3% on a same-day basis, compared to the second quarter of 2013. For the Company’s international operations, revenues for the second quarter of 2014 increased 10.6%, and on a same-day, constant-currency basis increased 10.7%, compared to the second quarter of 2013. 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.

Risk consulting and internal audit services revenues were $151 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 15.5% compared to revenues of $131 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. On a same-day, constant-currency basis, risk consulting and internal audit services revenues increased 14.4% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013. In the U.S., revenues in the second quarter of 2014 increased 19.0%, or 18.4% on a same-day basis, compared to the second quarter of 2013. Contributing to the U.S. increase was continued growth in IT consulting, risk and compliance and internal audit services. The Company’s risk consulting and internal audit services revenues from international operations increased 2.4%, and on a same-day, constant-currency basis decreased 0.2%, compared to the second quarter of 2013.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP year-over-year revenue growth rates to the as-reported year-over-year revenue growth rates for the three months ended June 30, 2014, is presented in the following table:

Gross Margin. The Company’s gross margin dollars were $478 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 10.7% compared to $432 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. In the second quarter of 2014, gross margin dollars increased for all three of the Company’s reportable segments compared to the second quarter of 2013. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues increased for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services but decreased for its risk consulting and internal audit services segments 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 $332 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $304 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. As a percentage of revenues, gross margin for temporary and consultant staffing services was 36.5% in the second quarter of 2014, up from 36.1% in the second quarter of 2013.

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 $103 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $90 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Because reimbursable expenses for permanent placement staffing services are de minimis, gross margin dollars are substantially explained by 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 $43 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 14.7% compared to $38 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for temporary and consultant staffing services were 26.8% in the second quarter of 2014, down from 27.1% in the second quarter of 2013. For the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013, the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to higher operating leverage obtained by higher revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company’s permanent placement staffing division were $80 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 7.3% compared to $75 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for permanent placement staffing services were 78.1% in the second quarter of 2014, down from 82.8% in the second quarter of 2013. For the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013, the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to higher operating leverage obtained by higher revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company’s risk consulting and internal audit services division were $31 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 6.3% compared to $29 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for risk consulting and internal audit services were 20.2% in the second quarter of 2014, down from 21.9% in the second quarter of 2013.

Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes was 39% and 37% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The higher tax rate is primarily due to fewer available foreign tax benefits.

Six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

Revenues. The Company’s revenues were $2.25 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 7.8% compared to $2.09 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Revenues from foreign operations represented 23% and 25% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. 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 half of 2014, revenues for all three of the Company’s reportable segments were up compared to the first half of 2013. Results were strongest domestically with demand also improving in several countries, most notably within Europe. Contributing factors for each reportable segment are discussed below in further detail.

Temporary and consultant staffing services revenues were $1.77 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 6.2% compared to revenues of $1.67 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013. On a same-day, constant-currency basis, temporary and consultant staffing services revenues increased 6.1% for the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013. In the U.S., revenues in the first half of 2014 increased 7.6%

19

on both a reported and a same-day basis, compared to the first half of 2013. For the Company’s international operations, revenues in the first half of 2014 increased 1.6%, or 1.1% on a same-day, constant-currency basis, compared to the first half of 2013.

Permanent placement revenues were $195 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 12.5% compared to revenues of $174 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. On a same-day, constant- currency basis, permanent placement revenues increased 12.9% for the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013. In the U.S., revenues in the first half of 2014 increased 14.2% on both a reported and a same-day basis, compared to the first half of 2013. 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. For the Company’s international operations, revenues in the first half of 2014 increased 9.6%, or 10.7% on a same-day, constant-currency basis, compared to the first half of 2013.

Risk consulting and internal audit services revenues were $285 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 15.1% compared to revenues of $247 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. On a same-day, constant-currency basis, risk consulting and internal audit services revenues increased 14.2% for the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013. Contributing to the increase was higher demand in the U.S. In the U.S., revenues in the first half of 2014 increased 19.0%, or 18.2% on a same-day basis, compared to the first half of 2013. For the Company’s international operations, revenues in the first half of 2014 increased 1.4%, or 0.3% on a same-day, constant-currency basis, compared to the first half of 2013.

A reconciliation of the Non-GAAP year-over-year revenue growth rates to the as-reported year-over-year revenue growth rates for the six months ended June 30, 2014, is presented in the following table:

Gross Margin. The Company’s gross margin dollars were $917 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, up from $842 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013, gross margin dollars increased for all three of the Company’s reportable segments. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues increased for the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services division and 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.

20

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 $642 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 6.7% compared to $601 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. As a percentage of revenues, gross margin for temporary and consultant staffing services was 36.3% in the first half of 2014, up from 36.1% in the first half of 2013.

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 $195 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 12.5% compared to $174 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. 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 $80 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 18.1% compared to $67 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. As a percentage of revenues, gross margin for risk consulting and internal audit services was 27.9% in for the first half of 2014, up from 27.2% in the first half of 2013. The year-over-year margin increase expressed as a percentage of revenues is primarily due to an increase in staff utilization levels. Utilization is the relationship of the time spent on client engagements to the total time available for the Company’s risk consulting and internal audit services staff.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses were $691 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 6.0% compared to $652 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. As a percentage of revenues, the Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses were 30.7% for the first half of 2014, down from 31.2% for the first half of 2013. 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 $476 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, up 5.3% from $451 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for permanent placement staffing services were 79.6% in the first half of 2014, down from 83.8% in the first half of 2013.

As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses for risk consulting and internal audit services were 21.0% in the first half of 2014, down from 22.2% in the first half of 2013. For the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013, 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 $226 million, or 10.0% of revenues, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increasing by 18.6% from $190 million, or 9.1% of revenues, for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the Company’s temporary and consultant staffing services division, operating income was $166 million, or 9.4% of applicable revenues, up from $150 million, or 9.0% of applicable revenues, in the

21

first half of 2013.

Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes was 39% and 37% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The higher tax rate is primarily due to fewer available foreign tax benefits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The change in the Company’s liquidity during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 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 $308 million and $247 million at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Operating activities provided $164 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014, which was partially offset by $33 million and $102 million of net cash used in investing activities and financing activities, respectively. Operating activities provided $130 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013, which was more than offset by $52 million and $111 million of net cash used in investing activities and financing activities, respectively.

Operating activities—Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was composed of net income of $137 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $44 million, and offset by changes in working capital of $17 million. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, was comprised of net income of $119 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $31 million, and offset by changes in working capital of $20 million.

Investing activities—Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $33 million. This was composed of capital expenditures of $23 million and deposits to trusts for employee benefits and retirement plans of $10 million. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, was $52 million. This was comprised of capital expenditures of $19 million and deposits to trusts for employee benefits and retirement plans of $33 million.

Financing activities—Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $102 million. This included repurchases of $65 million in common stock and $49 million in cash dividends to stockholders, offset by proceeds of $11 million from exercises of stock options and $1 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, was $111 million. This included repurchases of $86 million in common stock, $44 million in cash dividends to stockholders and $4 million in notes payable and other indebtedness, offset by proceeds of $22 million from exercises of stock options and $1 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, up to 6.8 million additional shares of the Company’s common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company repurchased 1.3 million shares and 2.0 million shares of common stock on the open market for a total cost of $55 million and $69 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 six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, such repurchases totaled 0.3 million shares, at a cost of $10 million, and 0.5 million shares, at a cost of $17 million, respectively. Repurchases of shares have been funded with cash generated from operations.

The Company’s working capital at June 30, 2014, included $308 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-term and long-term basis.

On July 29, 2014, the Company announced a quarterly dividend of $.18 per share to be paid to all shareholders of record as of August 25, 2014. The dividend will be paid on September 15, 2014.

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 six months ended June 30, 2014, approximately 23% 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, Euro, and Australian dollar 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.

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 materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
