Excluding these items, earnings per share was $0.99 per diluted share in the quarter representing an increase of 27% in constant currency in the second quarter of 2026.1

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 increased 6% compared to the prior year period.

Jonas Prising, ManpowerGroup Chair & CEO, said, "In the second quarter

we delivered strong results with revenues ahead of expectations. Results reflect good execution across our brands and markets, continued cost discipline and improving demand. We are leveraging our scale and diversified platform and focusing commercial efforts on verticals that offer the greatest opportunities to win and capture share. We saw very strong growth in our Manpower brand and improving trends across Experis and Talent Solutions.

Throughout the quarter, we advanced our global strategic transformation program and expanded AI capabilities that improve productivity and unlock new higher-value solutions through critical strategic partnerships. Looking ahead, we maintain our view that 2026 represents an important inflection point for ManpowerGroup as we execute our transformation strategy and position the business for long-term durable profitable growth."
