“The second quarter was one of heightened uncertainty in the employment sector, with clients remaining extremely cautious about their headcount needs and expenditures. As a result, we are facing many of the same challenges as other staffing firms, especially in the area of light industrial. At the same time, workers compensation costs and a weaker permanent placement/direct hire market have contributed to softer margins,” said Brendan Flood, Chairman, CEO and President.

“We are continuing to carefully monitor the markets in which we operate so that we are well prepared as the economy recovers,” concluded Flood.

Outlook
Although industry conditions remain uncertain and are subject to change, the Company currently estimates revenues for the 2023 fiscal year in the range of $250 million to $265 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Staffing 360 Solutions provides Adjusted EBITDA, a non-generally accepted accounting principal (“GAAP”) financial measure, because it believes it offers to investors additional information for monitoring its profit and cash flow generation. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as net income (loss) attributable to common stock before interest expense, benefit from income taxes, depreciation and amortization, acquisition, capital raising and other non-recurring expenses, other non-cash charges, impairment of goodwill, re-measurement gain on intercompany note, restructuring charges, other income, and charges the Company considers to be non-recurring in nature such as legal expenses associated with litigation, professional fees associated potential and completed acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to replace EBITDA other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.
