Commentary
“While subdued market demand continued in the first quarter as expected, I am proud of the resilience and dedication shown by the TrueBlue team, delivering revenue results near the high-end of our outlook range,” said Taryn Owen, President and CEO of TrueBlue. “Evolving governmental policies have hindered business confidence and consequently continue to suppress the staffing industry. Our depth of expertise enables us to understand the unique challenges our clients face in times like these, and we continue to support them with innovative and flexible workforce solutions as they navigate an increasingly complex and unpredictable business landscape.”
“As we leverage our inherent strengths and comprehensive service offerings to meet the needs of the market today, we are also paving the path forward with our strategic priorities to capture market share and enhance our long-term profitability,” continued Ms. Owen. “We are building on our momentum from the past year, expanding in secular growth markets and high-value roles, including the healthcare space with the recent addition of HSP to the TrueBlue portfolio. We also continue to find new ways to optimize our business model and advance our digital transformation as we remain focused on top line growth and margin expansion.”
Results
First quarter revenue was $370 million, a decrease of 8 percent compared to revenue of $403 million in the first quarter of 2024. Net loss per diluted share was $0.48 compared to net loss per diluted share of $0.05 in the prior year period. Adjusted net loss1 per diluted share was $0.40 compared to adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.03 in the prior year period.
