NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
NOTE 1:
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Financial statement preparation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) of TrueBlue, Inc. (the “company,” “TrueBlue,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures usually found in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The financial statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the financial statements for the interim periods presented. We follow the same accounting policies for preparing both quarterly and annual financial statements.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2022. The results of operations for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year nor for any other fiscal period.
Recently adopted accounting standards
There were no new accounting standards adopted during the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 that had a material impact on our financial statements.
Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted
There are no accounting standards which have not yet been adopted that are expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements and related disclosures.

Refer to Note 3:
Restricted Cash and Investments
for additional details on our held-to-maturity debt securities.
Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
In addition to assets that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, annual and interim impairment tests may subject our reporting units with goodwill and other intangible assets to nonrecurring fair value measurement. We performed our annual impairment tests for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023. Refer to Note 5:
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
for additional details on the impairment charges, valuation methodologies, and inputs used in the fair value measurements.
For our annual goodwill impairment test, the fair value of each reporting unit was estimated using a weighting of the income and market approaches, except for PeopleScout MSP, which relied only on the income approach. The various inputs to these fair value models are considered Level 3. As a result of the test, goodwill with a carrying value of $9.7 million associated with the PeopleScout MSP reporting unit was impaired, and an impairment charge of $8.9 million was recognized on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023.
For our annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test, the fair value of our trade names/trademarks were estimated utilizing the relief from royalty method. The various inputs to this fair value model are considered Level 3. As a result of the test, one of our trade names/trademarks with a carrying value of $3.9 million was written down to its fair value, and an impairment charge of $0.6 million was recognized on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023.

Held-to-maturity
Restricted cash and investments include collateral that has been provided or pledged to insurance carriers for workers’ compensation and state workers’ compensation programs. Our insurance carriers and certain state workers’ compensation programs require us to collateralize a portion of our workers’ compensation obligation. The collateral typically takes the form of cash and cash equivalents and highly rated investment grade securities, primarily in debt and asset-backed securities. The majority of our collateral obligations are held in a trust at the Bank of New York Mellon (“Trust”).

We performed our annual impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023, for our reporting segments with remaining goodwill: PeopleReady; PeopleManagement Centerline; PeopleScout RPO; and PeopleScout MSP. The fair value of each reporting unit was estimated using a weighting of the income and market valuation approaches. The income approach applied a fair value methodology to each reporting unit based on discounted cash flows. This analysis requires significant judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internally-developed forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital, which is risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting unit being tested. The weighted average cost of capital used in our most recent impairment test ranged from
13.0
% to
13.5
%. We also applied a market approach, which develops a value correlation based on the market capitalization of similar publicly traded companies, referred to as a multiple, to apply to the operating results of the reporting units. The primary market multiples to which we compare are revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. The income and market approaches were equally weighted in our most recent annual impairment test, except for PeopleScout MSP which relied only on the income approach.
The combined fair values for all reporting units were then reconciled to our aggregate market value of our shares of common stock on the date of valuation, while considering a reasonable control premium. We consider a reporting unit’s fair value to be substantially in excess of its carrying value at a 20% premium or greater. Based on our most recent impairment test, all of our reporting units’ fair values were substantially in excess of their respective carrying values, except for PeopleScout MSP.
As a result of our annual impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023, we concluded that the carrying amount of the PeopleScout MSP reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $
8.9
million, which was included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023. The PeopleScout MSP goodwill impairment was related to our revised internal revenue projections, which anticipate the recent declining trends will continue into future periods. These projections were updated based on our current macroeconomic outlook and a recent industry analysis, which indicates that our business will underperform due to a strategic lack of investment in technology within an increasingly competitive market. The remaining goodwill balance for the PeopleScout MSP reporting unit was $
0.8
million as of June 25, 2023.
Additionally, following performance of the annual impairment test we did not identify any events or conditions that make it more likely than not that an additional impairment may have occurred during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023. Accordingly, no further impairment loss was recognized during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023.
Intangible assets
Indefinite-lived intangible assets
We held indefinite-lived trade names/trademarks of $
5.4
million and $
6.0
million as of June 25, 2023 and December 25, 2022, respectively, related to businesses within our PeopleScout and PeopleManagement segments.
As a result of our annual impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023, we concluded that the carrying amount of a trade name/trademark related to the PeopleManagement segment exceeded its estimated fair value and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $
0.6
million, which was included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023. The charge was primarily the result of an increase in the discount rate, as well as lower projected revenues given our current macroeconomic outlook. The remaining balance for this trade name/trademark was $
3.3
million as of June 25, 2023. The fair value of the trade name/trademark related to the PeopleScout segment was substantially in excess of its carrying value of $
2.1
million as of June 25, 2023, and therefore did not result in an impairment.
Additionally, following performance of the annual impairment test we did not identify any additional events or conditions that make it more likely than not that an additional impairment may have occurred during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023. Accordingly, no further impairment loss was recognized during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023.
Finite-lived intangible assets
We did not identify any events or conditions that make it more likely than not that an impairment of our finite-lived intangible assets may have occurred during the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023.

NOTE 6:
WORKERS' COMPENSATION INSURANCE AND RESERVES
We provide workers’ compensation insurance for our associates and permanent employees. The majority of our current workers’ compensation insurance policies cover claims for a particular event above our $
5.0
million deductible limit, on a “per occurrence” basis. This results in our business being substantially self-insured.
Our workers’ compensation reserve for claims below the deductible limit is discounted to its estimated net present value. The discount rates used to estimate net present value are based on average returns of “risk-free” U.S. Treasury instruments available during the year in which the liability was incurred and the weighted average duration of the payments against the self-insured claims. Payments made against self-insured claims are made over a weighted average period of approximately
6
years as of June 25, 2023. The weighted average discount rate was
2.2
% and
2.0
% at June 25, 2023 and December 25, 2022, respectively.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the undiscounted workers’ compensation reserve to the discounted workers’ compensation reserve for the periods presented:

Payments made against self-insured claims were $

million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 and June 26, 2022, respectively.
Our workers’ compensation reserve includes estimated expenses related to claims above our self-insured limits (“excess claims”), and we record a corresponding receivable for the insurance coverage on excess claims based on the contractual policy agreements we have with insurance carriers. We discount this reserve and corresponding receivable to its estimated net present value using the discount rates based on average returns of “risk-free” U.S. Treasury instruments available during the year in which the liability was incurred and the weighted average duration of the payments against the excess claims. The claim payments are made and the corresponding reimbursements from our insurance carriers are received over an estimated weighted average period of approximately
17
years. The rates used to discount excess claims incurred during the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 and fifty-two weeks ended December 25, 2022 were
3.7
% and
3.0
%, respectively. The discounted workers’ compensation reserve for excess claims was $
72.0
million and $
76.7
million, as of June 25, 2023 and December 25, 2022, respectively. The discounted receivables from insurance companies, net of valuation allowance, were $
70.7
million and $
75.2
million as of June 25, 2023 and December 25, 2022, respectively.
Workers’ compensation cost consists primarily of changes in self-insurance reserves net of changes in discount, monopolistic jurisdictions’ premiums, insurance premiums and other miscellaneous expenses. Workers’ compensation cost of $
5.9
million and $
9.8
million was recorded in cost of services on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023 and June 26, 2022, respectively
, and $
10.7
million and $
21.1
million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 and June 26, 2022, respectively.
NOTE 7:
LONG-TERM DEBT
We have a revolving credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., PNC Bank, N.A., KeyBank, N.A. and HSBC Bank USA, N.A., which provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $
300.0
million, and is currently set to mature on March 16, 2025 (“Revolving Credit Facility”). We have an option to increase the amount to $
450.0
million, subject to lender approval. Included in the Revolving Credit Facility is a $
30.0
million sub-limit for “Swingline” loans and a $
125.0
million sub-limit for letters of credit. At June 25, 2023, $
7.2
million was utilized by outstanding standby letters of credit, leaving $
292.8
million unused under the Revolving Credit Facility, which is constrained by our most restrictive covenant making $
202.1
million available for additional borrowing. At December 25, 2022, $
7.2
million was utilized by outstanding standby letters of credit.
Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, we pay a variable rate of interest on funds borrowed under the revolving line of credit in excess of the Swingline loans, based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, plus an adjustment of
0.10
%, plus an applicable spread between
1.25
% and
3.50
%. Alternatively, at our option, we may pay interest based on a base rate plus an applicable spread between
0.25
% and
1.50
%. The base rate is the greater of the prime rate (as announced by Bank of America),
Page - 11
Table of Contents
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
or the federal funds rate plus
0.50
%. The applicable spread is determined by the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility.
Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, we are required to pay a variable rate of interest on funds borrowed under the Swingline loan based on the base rate plus applicable spread between
0.25
% and
1.50
%, as described above.
A commitment fee between
0.25
% and
0.50
% is applied against the Revolving Credit Facility’s unused borrowing capacity, with the specific rate determined by the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility. Letters of credit are priced at a margin between
1.00
% and
3.25
%, plus a fronting fee of
0.50
%.
Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by TrueBlue and material U.S. domestic subsidiaries, and are secured by substantially all of the assets of TrueBlue and material U.S. domestic subsidiaries. The second amendment to our credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, financial covenants.
The following financial covenants, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, were in effect as of June 25, 2023:
•
Consolidated leverage ratio less than
3.00
, defined as our funded indebtedness divided by trailing twelve months consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the amended credit agreement. As of June 25, 2023, our consolidated leverage ratio was
0.10
.
•
Consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio greater than
1.25
, defined as the trailing twelve months bank-adjusted cash flow divided by cash interest expense. As of June 25, 2023, our consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio was
48.44
.
As of June 25, 2023, we were in compliance with all effective covenants related to the Revolving Credit Facility.

2.0
% of the bond amount, subject to a minimum charge. The terms of these bonds are subject to review and renewal every
one

four years
and most bonds can be canceled by the sureties with as little as
60
days’ notice.
Legal contingencies and developments
We are involved in various proceedings arising in the normal course of conducting business. We believe the liabilities included in our financial statements reflect the probable loss that can be reasonably estimated and are immaterial. We also believe that the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses for the Company's exposure in excess of the amount accrued is expected to be immaterial to the Company. It remains possible that despite our current belief, material differences in actual outcomes or changes in management's evaluation or predictions could arise that could have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Under applicable Washington State law, shares purchased are not displayed separately as treasury stock on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and are treated as authorized but unissued shares. It is our accounting policy to first record these purchases as a reduction to our common stock account. Once the common stock account has been reduced to a nominal balance, remaining purchases are recorded as a reduction to our retained earnings. Furthermore, activity in our common stock account related to stock-based compensation is also recorded to retained earnings until such time as the reduction to retained earnings due to stock repurchases has been recovered.
NOTE 10:
INCOME TAXES
Our income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for any discrete items that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate and, if our estimated tax rate changes, we make a cumulative adjustment. Our quarterly tax provision and quarterly estimate of our annual effective tax rate are subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in accurately predicting our full year pre-tax income and loss by jurisdiction, tax credits, government audit developments, changes in laws, regulations and administrative practices, and relative changes in expenses or losses for which tax benefits are not recognized. Additionally, our effective tax rate can be more or less volatile based on the amount of pre-tax income. For example, the impact of discrete items, tax credits, and non-deductible expenses on our effective tax rate is greater when our pre-tax income is lower.
Our effective income tax rate for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 was (
6.5
)%. The difference between the statutory federal income tax rate of
21.0
% and our effective tax rate was primarily due to a non-deductible goodwill impairment charge, and the federal Work Opportunity Tax Credit (“WOTC”). WOTC is designed to encourage employers to hire workers from certain targeted groups with higher than average unemployment rates. Other differences between the statutory federal income tax rate and our effective tax rate result from state and foreign income taxes, certain non-deductible and non-taxable items, and tax effects of stock-based compensation.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW
TrueBlue, Inc. (the “company,” “TrueBlue,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a leading provider of specialized workforce solutions that helps our clients improve productivity and grow their businesses. Client demand for contingent workforce solutions and outsourced recruiting services is cyclical and heavily influenced by the overall strength of the economy and labor market, as well as trends in workforce flexibility. During periods of rising economic uncertainty, clients reduce their contingent labor in response to lower volumes and reduced appetite for expanding production or inventory, which reduces the demand for our services. That environment also reduces demand for permanent placement recruiting, whether outsourced or in-house. However, as the economy emerges from periods of uncertainty, contingent labor providers are uniquely positioned to respond quickly to increasing demand for labor and rapidly fill new or temporary positions, replace absent employees, and convert fixed labor costs to variable costs. Similarly, companies turn to hybrid or fully outsourced recruiting models during periods of rapid re-hiring and high employee turnover. In order to competitively differentiate our services and grow market share in these highly fragmented industries, we are committed to executing our digital strategies to increase our ability to attract and retain clients, employees, and associates, and reduce the cost of delivering our services. We have implemented these core strategies for each of our business segments: PeopleReady, PeopleScout and PeopleManagement.
PeopleReady
PeopleReady provides clients with access to qualified associates through a wide range of staffing solutions for on-demand, contingent general and skilled labor. Our services range from providing one associate to hundreds, and are generally short-term in nature as they are filling the contingent staffing needs of our clients. PeopleReady connects people with work in a broad range of industries through our network of branches across all 50 states in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada and Puerto Rico, and increasingly through our industry-leading mobile app, JobStack
TM
. JobStack creates a digital exchange between our associates and clients, and allows our branch resources to expand their recruiting, sales and service delivery efforts. JobStack is competitively differentiating our services, expanding our reach into new demographics, and improving our service delivery and work order fill rates. Our primary focus at PeopleReady is the use of digitalization to supplement our nationwide footprint, improve our operating efficiency and effectiveness, and gain market share.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
PeopleScout
PeopleScout offers recruitment process outsourcing (“RPO”), managed service provider (“MSP”) solutions and talent advisory services to a wide variety of industries, primarily in the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia. Our RPO solutions are multi-year in duration, highly scalable and provide clients the support they need as their hiring volumes fluctuate. We tailor our services based on individual client needs, including sourcing, screening, hiring and onboarding, as well as employer branding and recruitment marketing, to improve the candidate experience and regulatory compliance, and ultimately lower our clients’ recruiting costs. Our proprietary technology platform (Affinix
TM
) uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to rapidly source a qualified talent pool within minutes rather than days, and further engages candidates through a seamless digital experience. Our MSP business manages our clients’ contingent labor programs, including vendor selection, performance management, compliance monitoring and risk management. Our primary focus at PeopleScout is leveraging our strong brand reputation, continuing to invest in our sales team, and using Affinix to continue to gain market share in high growth sectors.
PeopleManagement
PeopleManagement provides recruitment and on-site management of a facility’s contingent industrial workforce throughout the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico. Our client engagements are generally multi-location and multi-year, and include scalable recruiting, screening, hiring and management of the contingent workforce. Once operational, we deploy dedicated management and service teams that work side-by-side with a client’s full-time workforce. Our teams are an integral part of the production and logistics process, and specialize in labor-intensive manufacturing, warehousing and distribution. PeopleManagement also provides dedicated and contingent commercial drivers to the transportation and distribution industries through our Centerline Drivers (“Centerline”) brand. Centerline matches drivers to each client’s specific needs, allowing them to improve productivity, control costs, ensure compliance and deliver improved service. Our primary focus at PeopleManagement continues to be growing our client base by targeting local and underserved markets, as well as investing in customer and associate care programs to improve retention.
Fiscal second quarter of 2023 summary
Total company revenue declined 16.5% to $475.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decline was primarily driven by economic uncertainty impacting demand trends across all three segments as clients become increasingly selective in the positions they choose to fill. The decline in demand has impacted most industries and markets, especially transportation, retail and services.
Total company gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023 decreased by 40 basis points to 27.4%, compared to 27.8% for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily driven by unfavorable revenue shifts toward our lower margin staffing businesses, partially offset by lower workers’ compensation costs and higher bill rates within our PeopleReady segment, which have increased ahead of pay rates.
Total company selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense decreased 0.6% to $121.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in SG&A expense was the result of operational cost management actions we have taken in response to the decline in demand for our services, offset by inflation in certain employee costs, most notably medical benefits. The prior year included a benefit for the reversal of accrued compensation related to the resignation of our former Chief Executive Officer.
We recorded a goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $9.5 million ($9.3 million net of tax) during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, primarily within our PeopleScout MSP reporting unit.
The items above resulted in net loss of $7.3 million
for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to net income of $24.0 million for the same period in the prior year.
As of June 25, 2023, we were in a strong financial position with cash and cash equivalents of $49.7 million, no debt, and $202.1 million available under the most restrictive covenant of our revolving credit agreement (“Revolving Credit Facility”), for total liquidity of $251.8 million.

The decline was primarily driven by economic uncertainty impacting demand trends across all three segments. Our contingent staffing clients are focused on employee retention as well as reducing costs, causing them to become increasingly selective in the positions they fill using outsourced labor providers. Our PeopleScout clients continue to face uncertain future workforce needs, and have reduced volumes in an attempt to reduce costs.
PeopleReady
PeopleReady revenue declined 13.4% to $275.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, and declined 15.3% to $527.9 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decline in revenue was primarily due to a decline in demand for our services, as economic uncertainty led our clients to reduce their dependence on variable labor to supplement their core workforce in order to manage their costs.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
PeopleScout
PeopleScout revenue declined 33.2% to $59.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, and declined 24.6% to $129.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same periods in the prior year. PeopleScout revenue declined as clients continued to respond to economic uncertainty and unknown future workforce needs through reducing hiring volumes, sourcing candidates with internal resources to control costs, and initiating hiring freezes. In the prior year comparable periods, PeopleScout benefited from increased customer volume, stimulated by historically high employee turnover rates.
PeopleManagement
PeopleManagement revenue declined 13.2% to $140.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, and declined 12.9% to $283.7 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same periods in the prior year. PeopleManagement revenue declined as clients in our on-site business continued to respond to economic uncertainty by reducing volumes.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue declined 40 basis points to 27.4% for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to 27.8% for the same period in the prior year. This decline was primarily due to a contraction of 130 basis points from an unfavorable revenue shift toward our lower margin staffing businesses. This contraction was partially offset by 60 basis points of expansion within our staffing businesses from lower workers’ compensation costs due to favorable development of prior year reserves. An additional 30 basis points of expansion was a result of higher bill rates in our staffing businesses, which have increased ahead of pay rates.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue grew 40 basis points to 27.0% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to 26.6% for the same period in the prior year. Within our staffing businesses, lower workers’ compensation costs from favorable development of prior year reserves contributed 80 basis points of expansion. An additional 30 basis points of expansion was a result of higher bill rates in our staffing businesses, which have increased ahead of pay rates. This was partially offset by a contraction of 70 basis points, due to unfavorable revenue shifts toward our lower margin staffing businesses.

Total company SG&A expense decreased by $0.8 million or 0.6% for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. We incurred $0.4 million in workforce reduction costs during the period to further scale down our operating cost structure, which are expected to generate cost savings for the remainder of fiscal 2023. These and other cost cutting measures have resulted in savings of approximately $4 million during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023. However, operating cost savings have been offset by inflation of certain employee costs, most notably for employee medical benefits which have been rising nation-wide. In addition, SG&A expense in the prior year included a benefit of $3.3 million for the reversal of accrued compensation related to the resignation of our former Chief Executive Officer.
Total company SG&A expense increased by $1.3 million or 0.5% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year.

Goodwill
We performed our annual impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023. As a result of this impairment test, we concluded that the carrying amount of our PeopleScout MSP reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $8.9 million, which was included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023. The PeopleScout MSP goodwill impairment was related to our revised internal revenue projections, which anticipate the recent declining trends will continue into future periods. These projections were updated based on our current macroeconomic outlook and a recent industry analysis, which indicates that our business will underperform due to a strategic lack of investment in technology within an increasingly competitive market. The remaining goodwill balances for PeopleScout MSP was $0.8 million as of June 25, 2023. See Note 5:
Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Indefinite-lived intangible assets
We performed our annual impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023. As a result of this impairment test, we concluded that a trade name/trademark related to our PeopleManagement segment exceeded its estimated fair value and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $0.6 million, which was included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023. The charge was primarily the result of an increase in the discount rate, as well as lower projected revenues given our current macroeconomic outlook. The remaining balance for this trade name/trademark was $3.3 million as of June 25, 2023.

Our tax provision and our effective tax rate are subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in accurately predicting our annual pre-tax and taxable income and loss by jurisdiction, tax credits, government audit developments, changes in laws, regulations and administrative practices, and relative changes of expenses or losses for which tax benefits are not recognized. Additionally, our effective tax rate can be more or less volatile based on the amount of pre-tax income and loss. For example, the impact of discrete items, tax credits and non-deductible expenses on our effective tax rate is greater when our pre-tax income or loss is lower.

Significant fluctuations in our effective tax rate are primarily due to the non-deductible goodwill impairment charge and the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (“WOTC”). Other differences between the statutory federal income tax rate and our effective tax rate result from state and foreign income taxes, certain other non-deductible and non-taxable items, and the tax impact of stock-based compensation.
Of the total goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $9.5 million recorded in the second quarter of 2023, $8.9 million (tax effect of $2.3 million) related to goodwill from a stock acquisition, and accordingly was not deductible for tax purposes.
WOTC, our primary hiring tax credit, is designed to encourage employers to hire workers from certain targeted groups with higher than average unemployment rates. WOTC is generally calculated as a percentage of wages over a twelve-month period up to worker maximums by targeted groups. Based on historical results and business trends, we estimate the amount of WOTC we expect to earn related to wages of the current year. However, the estimate is subject to variation because 1) a small percentage of our workers qualify for one or more of the many targeted groups; 2) the targeted groups are subject to different incentive credit rates and limitations; 3) credits fluctuate depending on economic conditions and qualified worker retention periods; and 4) state and federal offices can delay their credit certification processing and have inconsistent certification rates. We recognize an adjustment to prior year hiring tax credits if credits certified by government offices differ from original estimates. The U.S. Congress has approved the WOTC program through the end of 2025.
Segment performance
We evaluate performance based on segment revenue and segment profit. Segment profit includes revenue, related cost of services, and ongoing operating expenses directly attributable to the reportable segment. Segment profit excludes goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, depreciation and amortization expense, unallocated corporate general and administrative expense, interest expense, other income and expense, income taxes, and other costs and benefits not considered to be ongoing. See Note 12:
Segment Information
, to our consolidated financial statements found in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional details on our reportable segments, as well as a reconciliation of segment profit to income (loss) before tax expense.
Segment profit should not be considered a measure of financial performance in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

PeopleReady segment profit declined $12.2 million and $27.5 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, and also declined as a percentage of revenue, compared to the same periods in the prior year, respectively. These declines were primarily due to the decline in revenue and the associated impact from higher operating leverage, partially offset by lower workers’ compensation costs and higher bill rates, which have increased ahead of pay rates.

PeopleScout segment profit declined $11.8 million and $13.8 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, and also declined as a percentage of revenue, compared to the same periods in the prior year, respectively. These declines were a result of the decline in revenue, combined with the relatively fixed cost structure of the recruiting business. We took actions in the form of workforce reductions during the fiscal first and second quarters of 2023 to reduce our costs for the remainder of the year.

PeopleManagement segment profit declined $2.0 million and $5.2 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, and also declined as a percentage of revenue, compared to the same periods in the prior year, respectively. These declines were primarily due to the decline in revenue and the associated impact from higher operating leverage. We took actions during the fiscal first and second quarters of 2023 to reduce costs for the remainder of the year.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
The following highlights represent our operating outlook. These expectations are subject to revision as our business changes with the overall economy.
Operating outlook
•
We expect revenue for the fiscal third quarter of 2023 to decline between 16% and 12% compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to our clients’ response to macroeconomic uncertainty.
•
We anticipate gross profit as a percentage of revenue to expand between 0 and 40 basis points for the fiscal third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. We anticipate gross profit as a percentage of revenue to expand between 0 and 60 basis points for fiscal 2023, compared to the prior year.
•
For the fiscal third quarter of 2023, we anticipate SG&A expense to be between $122 million and $126 million. For fiscal 2023, we anticipate SG&A expense to be between $492 million and $498 million.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
•
We expect diluted weighted average shares outstanding to be approximately 31 million for the fiscal third quarter of 2023.
•
We expect an income tax benefit for fiscal 2023 between $2 million and $3 million
. The estimated income tax benefit is the result of our job tax credits exceeding the income tax associated with our expected pre-tax net income before non-deductible goodwill impairment.
•
Fiscal 2023 will include a 53rd week, which we expect will add between $22 million and $27 million in revenue, but is not expected to contribute significant net income due to it falling during a slow demand period between the Christmas and New Year holidays.
Liquidity outlook
•
Capital expenditures and spending for software as a service assets for the fiscal third quarter of 2023 are expected to be approximately $11 million, and between $36 million and $40 million for fiscal 2023. Approximately $2 million and $5 million relates to spending for software as a service assets for the fiscal third quarter of 2023 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We believe we have a strong financial position and sufficient sources of funding to meet our short and long term obligations. As of June 25, 2023, we had $49.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and no debt. We had $202.1 million available under the most restrictive covenant of our $300.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, as $7.2 million was utilized by outstanding standby letters of credit. We have an option to increase the total line of credit amount under the Revolving Credit Facility from $300.0 million to $450.0 million, subject to lender approval.
Cash generated through our core operations is our primary source of liquidity. Our principal ongoing cash needs are to finance working capital, fund capital expenditures, repay any outstanding Revolving Credit Facility balances, and execute share repurchases. We manage working capital through timely collection of accounts receivable, which we achieve through focused collection efforts and tightly monitoring trends in days sales outstanding. While client payment terms are generally 90 days or less, we pay our associates weekly, so additional financing through the use of our Revolving Credit Facility is sometimes necessary to support revenue growth. We also manage working capital through efficient cost management and strategically timing payments of accounts payable.
We continue to make investments in online and mobile apps to increase the competitive differentiation of our services over the long term and improve the efficiency of our service delivery model. In addition, we continue to transition our back-office technology from on-premise software platforms to cloud-based software solutions, to increase automation and the efficiency of running our business.
Outside of ongoing cash needed to support core operations, our insurance carriers and certain state workers’ compensation programs require us to collateralize a portion of our workers’ compensation obligation, for which they become responsible should we become insolvent. On a regular basis, these entities assess the amount of collateral they will require from us relative to our workers’ compensation obligation. Such amounts can increase or decrease independent of our assessments and reserves. We continue to have risk that these collateral requirements may be increased by our insurers due to our loss history and market dynamics. We generally anticipate that our collateral commitments will continue to grow as we grow our business. We pay our premiums and deposit our collateral in installments. The collateral typically takes the form of cash and cash-backed instruments, highly rated investment grade securities, letters of credit, and surety bonds. Restricted cash and investments supporting our self-insured workers’ compensation obligation are held in a trust at the Bank of New York Mellon (“Trust”), and are used to pay workers’ compensation claims as they are filed. See Note 6:
Workers' Compensation Insurance and Reserves
, and Note 3:
Restricted Cash and Investments
, to our consolidated financial statements found in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for details on our workers’ compensation program as well as the restricted cash and investments held in Trust.
We have established investment policy directives for the Trust with the first priority to preserve capital, second to ensure sufficient liquidity to pay workers’ compensation claims, third to minimize risk by diversifying the investment portfolio, and fourth to maximize after-tax returns. Trust investments must meet minimum acceptable quality standards. The primary investments include U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency debentures, U.S. agency mortgages, corporate securities and municipal securities. For those investments rated by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, the minimum ratings at time of purchase are:
S&P
Moody’s
Fitch
Short-term rating
A-1/SP-1
P-1/MIG-1
F-1
Long-term rating

A
Total collateral commitments decreased $9.8 million during the twenty-six week period ended June 25, 2023, primarily due to the use of collateral to satisfy workers’ compensation claims, partially offset by an increase in collateral contributions required by our insurance carriers. See Note 8:
Commitments and Contingencies
, to our consolidated financial statements found in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional details on our workers’ compensation commitments. We continue to actively manage workers’ compensation cost through the safety of our associates with our safety programs, and actively control costs with our network of service providers. These actions have had a positive impact creating favorable adjustments to workers’ compensation liabilities recorded in the prior periods. Continued favorable adjustments to our prior year workers’ compensation liabilities are dependent on our ability to continue to lower accident rates and costs of our claims. We expect diminishing favorable adjustments to our workers’ compensation liabilities as the opportunity for significant reduction to the frequency and severity of accident rates diminishes.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Restricted cash and investments also includes collateral to support our non-qualified deferred compensation plan in the form of company-owned life insurance policies. Our non-qualified deferred compensation plan is managed by a third-party service provider, and the investments backing the company-owned life insurance policies align with the amount and timing of payments based on employee elections.

Cash flows from operating activities
Cash provided by operating activities consists of net income (loss) adjusted for non-cash benefits and expenses, and changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Demand for our services is generally lower during the fiscal first quarter, due in part to limitations in outside work during the winter months and slowdowns in manufacturing and logistics after the fiscal fourth quarter holiday season. This results in a deleveraging of accounts receivable and accounts payable compared to the prior year-end. Accrued wages and benefits can fluctuate based on whether the period end requires the accrual of one or two weeks of payroll, the amount and timing of bonus payments, and timing of payroll tax payments.
In addition to the cyclical deleveraging, we experienced additional deleveraging due to the decline in revenue during the first half of fiscal 2023 as compared to the fiscal fourth quarter of 2022. Net cash provided by accounts receivable collections through deleveraging during the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 was partially offset by net cash used for payments on accounts payable and accrued expenses. Net cash used for payments on accrued wages and benefits was primarily due to the timing and amount of annual bonus payments to employees, which are paid in the fiscal first quarter. In addition, our workers’ compensation claims reserve for estimated claims decreases as contingent labor services decline, as was the case in the current period.
Cash flows from investing activities
Investing cash flows consist of capital expenditures and purchases, sales, and maturities of restricted investments, which are managed in line with our workers’ compensation collateral funding requirements and timing of claim payments.
Capital expenditures for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 were higher than the twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2022 due in part to the continued investments we are making to upgrade our PeopleReady technology platform. For the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023, cash used for purchases of restricted investments was more than offset by maturities. In the prior period, cash provided by maturities of restricted investments was not immediately reinvested by the Trust, and more than offset capital expenditures.
Cash flows from financing activities
Financing cash flows consist primarily of repurchases of common stock as part of our publicly announced share repurchase program, amounts to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock, the net change in our Revolving Credit Facility, and proceeds from the sale of common stock through our employee stock purchase plan.
Net cash used in financing activities during the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 was primarily due to the repurchase of $34.2 million of our common stock in the open market. As of June 25, 2023, $55.1 million remains available for repurchase under existing authorizations.
SUMMARY OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our critical accounting estimates are discussed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Summary of Critical Accounting Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2022. The following has been updated to reflect the results of our impairment analyses.
Page - 25
Table of Contents
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets
We evaluate goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter, and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, client engagement, or sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit. We monitor the existence of potential impairment indicators throughout the fiscal year.
Goodwill
We test for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level. We consider our operating segments to be our reporting units for goodwill impairment testing. Our operating segments with remaining goodwill are PeopleReady, PeopleManagement Centerline, PeopleScout RPO and PeopleScout MSP.
When evaluating goodwill for impairment, we may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Qualitative factors include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions and overall company financial performance. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we determine that it is more likely than not the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is unnecessary.
The quantitative impairment test, if necessary, involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. Fair value reflects the price a market participant would be willing to pay in a potential sale of the reporting unit. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, we conclude that no goodwill impairment has occurred. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we recognize an impairment charge in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying value of the goodwill. We consider a reporting unit’s fair value to be substantially in excess of its carrying value at a 20% premium or greater.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit when performing a quantitative impairment test involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions to evaluate the impact of operational and macroeconomic changes on each reporting unit. We estimate the fair value of each reporting unit using a weighting of the income and market valuation approaches. The income approach applies a fair value methodology to each reporting unit based on discounted cash flows. This analysis requires significant estimates and judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital, which is risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting unit being tested. We also apply a market approach, which develops a value correlation based on the market capitalization of similar publicly traded companies, referred to as a multiple, to apply to the operating results of the reporting units. The primary market multiples to which we compare are revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.
We base fair value estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. We confirm the reasonableness of the valuation conclusions by comparing the indicated values of all the reporting units to the overall company value indicated by the stock price and outstanding shares as of the valuation date, or market capitalization.
Annual impairment test
We performed our annual goodwill impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023. The weighted average cost of capital used in our most recent impairment test was risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting units and ranged from 13.0% to 13.5%. The combined fair values for all reporting units were then reconciled to our aggregate market value of our shares of common stock on the date of valuation, resulting in a control premium of 27.9%.
As a result of our annual impairment test, we concluded that the carrying amount of the PeopleScout MSP reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $8.9 million, which was included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023. The PeopleScout MSP goodwill impairment was related to our revised internal revenue projections, which anticipate the recent declining trends will continue into future periods. These projections were updated based on our current macroeconomic outlook and a recent industry analysis, which indicates that our business will underperform due to a strategic lack of investment in technology within an increasingly competitive market. The remaining goodwill balance for PeopleScout MSP was $0.8 million as of June 25, 2023. Any further declines in PeopleScout MSP revenue, in excess of our updated projections, could give rise to an additional impairment.

Table of Contents
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Based on our assessment, we concluded the fair value of all other reporting units were substantially in excess of their carrying value, and the goodwill associated with those reporting units was not impaired. Additionally, following performance of the annual impairment test we did not identify any events or conditions that make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023. See Note 5:
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
, to our consolidated financial statements found in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional details on the 2023 goodwill impairment.
There was no goodwill impairment charge recorded during fiscal 2022 nor 2021.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets
We have indefinite-lived intangible assets for trade names/trademarks related to business within our PeopleManagement and PeopleScout segments. We evaluate our indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter, or whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred. These events or circumstances could include significant change in general economic conditions, deterioration in industry environment, changes in cost factors, declining operating performance indicators, legal factors, competition, client engagement, or sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business. We monitor the existence of potential impairment indicators throughout the fiscal year.
When evaluating indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment, we may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible is less than its carrying amount. Qualitative factors include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions and overall company financial performance. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we determine that it is more likely than not the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible is greater than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is unnecessary.
The quantitative impairment test, if necessary, utilizes the relief from royalty method to determine the fair value of each of our trade names. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, we recognize an impairment charge in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying value. Management uses considerable judgment to determine key assumptions, including projected revenue, royalty rates and appropriate discount rates.
Annual impairment test
We performed our annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023. As a result of this impairment test, we concluded that a trade name/trademark related to the PeopleManagement segment exceeded its estimated fair value and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $0.6 million, which was included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023. The charge was primarily the result of an increase in the discount rate, as well as lower projected revenues given our current macroeconomic outlook. The remaining balance for this trade name/trademark was $3.3 million as of June 25, 2023.
The fair value of the trade name/trademark related to the PeopleScout segment was substantially in excess of its carrying value of $2.1 million as of June 25, 2023, and therefore did not result in an impairment. Additionally, following performance of the annual impairment test we did not identify any events or conditions that make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred during the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023.
No impairment charge was recorded during fiscal 2022 nor 2021.

Table of Contents
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Finite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets
We review intangible assets that have finite useful lives and other long-lived assets whenever an event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Important factors that could result in an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to historical or planned operating results, or significant changes in business strategies. We estimate the recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows that we expect the asset to generate. An impairment charge is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. When an impairment charge is recognized, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value based on discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation techniques.
We did not identify any events or conditions that make it more likely than not that an impairment of our finite-lived intangible assets or other long-lived assets may have occurred during the thirteen or twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023.
No impairment charge was recorded during fiscal 2022 or 2021.
