Certain information contained in this press release and its
attachments may be deemed forward-looking statements regarding
events and financial trends that may affect the future operating
results or financial positions of Robert Half Inc. (the "Company").
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees or promises that
goals or targets will be met. These statements may be identified by
words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "forecast," "target,"
"project," "plan," "intend," "believe," "expect," "should,"
"could," "would," "may," "might," "will," or variations or
negatives thereof or by similar or comparable words or phrases. In
addition, historical, current, and forward-looking information
about the Company's environmental, social, and governance and
compliance programs, including targets or goals, may not be
considered material for the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") reporting purposes and may be based on standards for
measuring progress that are still developing, on internal controls,
diligence, or processes that are evolving, and on assumptions that
are subject to change in the future. Forward-looking statements are
estimates only, based on management's current expectations,
currently available information and current strategy, plans, or
forecasts, and involve certain known and unknown risks,
uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict and
often beyond our control and are inherently uncertain.
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: changes to or new interpretations of United States of America ("U.S.") or
international tax regulations; the global financial and economic
situation; changes in levels of unemployment and other economic
conditions in the U.S. or foreign countries where the Company does
business, or in particular regions or industries; reduction in the
supply of candidates for contract employment or the Company's
ability to attract candidates; the development, proliferation and
adoption of artificial intelligence by the Company and the third
parties it serves; 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 engagement professionals, or for events impacting its
engagement professionals 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
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 or other 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 or the Company could experience a cybersecurity breach;
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 broad-based
consulting, regulatory compliance, technology services, public
sector or other high-demand advisory 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.
A summary of additional risks and uncertainties can be found in
the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in the Company's other
filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
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. The Company
undertakes no obligation to update information contained in this
release, whether as a result of new information, future events, or
otherwise, and notwithstanding any historical practice of doing
so.

ROBERT HALF INC.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL
MEASURES
The financial results of Robert Half Inc. (the "Company") are
prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of
America ("GAAP") and the rules of the SEC. To help readers
understand the Company's financial performance, the Company
supplements its GAAP financial results with the following non-GAAP
measures: adjusted gross margin; adjusted selling, general and
administrative expenses; combined segment income; and as adjusted
revenue growth rates.
The following measures: adjusted gross margin and adjusted
selling, general and administrative expenses, include gains and
losses on investments held to fund the Company's obligations under
employee deferred compensation plans. The Company provides these
measures because they are used by management to review its
operational results.
Combined segment income is income before income taxes, adjusted
for interest income and amortization of intangible assets. The
Company provides combined segment income because it is how
management evaluates performance.
As adjusted revenue growth rates represent year-over-year
revenue growth rates after removing the impacts on reported
revenues from the changes in the number of billing days and foreign
currency exchange rates. The Company provides this data because it
focuses on the Company's revenue growth rates attributable to
operating activities and aids in evaluating revenue trends over
time. The impacts from the changes in billing days and foreign
currency exchange rates are calculated as follows:
- Billing days impact is calculated by dividing each comparative
period's reported revenues by the number of billing days for that
period to arrive at a per billing day amount. Same billing day
growth rates are then calculated based on the per billing day
amounts. Management calculates a global, weighted-average number of
billing days for each reporting period based upon inputs from all
countries and all functional specializations and segments.
- Foreign currency impact is calculated by retranslating current
period international revenues, using foreign currency exchange
rates from the prior year's comparable period.
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 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 non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures is provided on the
following pages.

Changes in the
Company's employee deferred compensation plan obligations related
to Protiviti operations are included in costs of services, while
the related investment income is presented separately. The non-GAAP
financial adjustments shown in the table above are to reclassify
investment income from investments held in employee deferred
compensation trusts to the same line item that includes the
corresponding change in obligation. These adjustments have no
impact on income before income taxes.

Changes in the
Company's employee deferred compensation plan obligations related
to talent solutions operations are included in selling, general and
administrative expenses, while the related investment income is
presented separately. The non-GAAP financial adjustments shown in
the table above are to reclassify investment income from
investments held in employee deferred compensation trusts to the
same line item that includes the corresponding change in
obligation. These adjustments have no impact on income before
income taxes.

Service revenues for
finance and accounting, administrative and customer support, and
technology include intersegment revenues, which represent revenues
from services provided to Protiviti in connection with the
Company's blended business solutions. Intersegment revenues for
each functional specialization are aggregated and then eliminated
as a single line item.
|
The non-GAAP financial measures included in the table above
adjust for the following items:
Billing Days. The "As Reported"
revenue growth rates are based upon reported revenues. Management
calculates the billing day impact by dividing each comparative
period's reported revenues by the number of billing days for that
period to arrive at a per billing day amount. Same billing day
growth rates are then calculated based on the per billing day
amounts. Management calculates a global, weighted-average number of
billing days for each reporting period based upon input from all
countries and all functional specializations and segments.
Foreign Currency Translation. The
"As Reported" revenue growth rates are based upon reported
revenues, which include the impact of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates. The foreign currency impact is calculated by
retranslating current period international revenues, using foreign
currency exchange rates from the prior year's comparable
period.
The term "As Adjusted" means that the impact of different
billing days and constant currency fluctuations are removed from
the revenue growth rate calculation. A reconciliation of the
non-GAAP year-over-year revenue growth rates to the "As Reported"
year-over-year revenue growth rates is included herein, on Pages
10-12.
