ManpowerGroup Reports 3rd Quarter 2025 Results
- Revenues of $4.6 billion (2% as reported, -2% constant currency (CC), 1% organic CC)
- Ongoing stabilization across North America and Europe while Latin America and Asia Pacific continued to experience good demand during the quarter
- Compared to the previous quarter, year over year revenue growth in Manpower increased and the rate of revenue decline in Experis also improved. Talent Solutions experienced a revenue decline during the quarter on lower RPO activity from select client programs and lower outplacement activity
- The gross profit margin of 16.6% reflects lower permanent recruitment activity, lower outplacement, and a business mix shift driven by enterprise clients
- SG&A declined year over year with additional restructuring actions taken in the quarter
MILWAUKEE, October 16, 2025 – ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) today reported net earnings of $0.38 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to net earnings of $0.47 per diluted share in the prior year period. Net earnings in the quarter were $18.0 million compared to net earnings of $22.8 million a year earlier. Revenues for the third quarter were $4.6 billion, a 2% increase from the prior year period.
The current year quarter included restructuring costs and Argentina hyperinflationary related non-cash currency translation losses which reduced earnings per share by $0.45 in the third quarter. Excluding these charges, earnings per share was $0.83 per diluted share in the quarter representing a decrease of 39% in constant currency.1
Financial results in the quarter were also impacted by the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies compared to the prior year period. On a constant currency basis, revenues decreased 2% compared to the prior year period and on an organic constant currency basis, revenues increased 1% compared to the prior year period.
[1] The prior year period included various adjustments which reduced earnings per share by $0.82 which are also excluded when determining the year over year adjusted trend.
Jonas Prising, ManpowerGroup Chair & CEO, said “After 11 consecutive quarters of organic constant currency revenue declines, we crossed back over to growth during the third quarter. The stabilization of demand in recent quarters in North America and Europe, despite ongoing tariff uncertainty, has been a key factor in the revenue trend improvement. Currently our entire organization has a relentless focus on two main outcomes - Winning In The Market to increase our market share and the acceleration of initiatives to remove structural costs from the organization to drive a more efficient ManpowerGroup for the future. We are pleased with our progress in both and confident in our ability to deliver long-term value to all of our stakeholders.
“We anticipate diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter will be between $0.78 and $0.88, which includes an estimated favorable currency impact of 8 cents and a 46.5% effective tax rate.”
Net losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $43.5 million, or net losses of $0.93 per basic share compared to net earnings of $122.6 million, or net earnings of $2.53 per diluted share in the prior year, respectively. The current year-to-date period included restructuring costs, net losses from the sale of businesses, which will operate as franchises going forward, a non-cash goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge, and Argentina hyperinflationary related non-cash currency translation losses which reduced earnings per share by $2.98. Excluding the net impact of these charges, earnings per share for the nine-month period was $2.05 per diluted share representing a decrease of 44%2 in constant currency. Revenues for the nine-month period were $13.2 billion, representing a decrease of 2% compared to the prior year or a decrease of 3% in constant currency.
In conjunction with its third quarter earnings release, ManpowerGroup will broadcast its conference call live over the Internet on October 16, 2025 at 7:30 a.m. central time (8:30 a.m. eastern time). Prepared remarks for the conference call, webcast details, presentation and recordings are included within the Investor Relations section of manpowergroup.com.

[2] The prior year period included restructuring costs, losses related to the Proservia Germany business, and Argentina hyperinflationary related non-cash currency translation losses which reduced earnings per share by $1.00 which are also excluded when determining the year over year trend.

After 11 consecutive quarters of organic constant currency revenue declines, ManpowerGroup crossed back over to growth during the third quarter. The stabilization of demand in recent quarters in North America and Europe, despite ongoing tariff uncertainty, has been a key factor in the revenue trend improvement. Everest Group recognized various ManpowerGroup businesses as leaders or star performers including U.S Manpower, Experis, RPO and TAPFIN MSP. Our largest brand, Manpower, has accomplished improved sequential quarter revenue growth with strength in North America, Latin America, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Poland and APME.

As defined in the agreement, we had a net Debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.18 to 1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.76 to 1 as of September 30, 2025. During the second quarter of 2025, the definition of net debt in the agreement was amended to define net debt as total debt less cash in excess of $200M through December 31, 2025 and less cash in excess of $300M thereafter. As of September 30, 2025, there were $0.4M of standby letters of credit issued under the agreement. Under the $600M agreement, we have an option to increase the total availability under the facility by an additional $300M. Represents uncommitted lines of credit & overdraft facilities. The total amount of the facilities as of September 30, 2025 was $521.4M and subsidiary facilities accounted for $371.4M of the total. Total subsidiary borrowings are limited to $300M due to restrictions in our Revolving Credit Facility, with the exception of Q3 when subsidiary borrowings are limited to $600M. This rate is the effective interest rate for this note, net of a favorable impact of a forward rate lock.
