the tables below.
“Our third quarter results reflect the continued uncertainty
that has been characteristic of the employment sector, with clients
remaining cautious about their hiring needs and the economy,” said
Brendan Flood, Chairman, CEO and President. “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.”
OutlookAlthough industry conditions remain
uncertain and are subject to change, the Company currently
estimates revenues in excess of $250 million for the 2023 fiscal
year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial
MeasuresStaffing 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.
