Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

(1) Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed.

COVID-19

The global spread of COVID-19, which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has created significant volatility, uncertainty and global macroeconomic disruption. The COVID-19 crisis began to negatively impact our business, operations and consolidated financial statements during the last two weeks of March 2020, with significant lockdown measures implemented by the end of March 2020 in our main markets in Europe and North America, as well as in certain other countries. We continued to experience the negative impacts of the COVID-19 crisis in the second quarter of 2021, particularly in Europe, which caused governments to impose more targeted and localized restrictions unlike the country-wide lockdowns and restrictions experienced in March 2020 and the second quarter of 2020. Although many markets strengthened throughout the first half of 2021, these restrictions had an adverse effect of curtailing economic activity in certain markets, affecting demand for our services. Continued uncertainty remains as to the future impact of the pandemic on global and local economies.

We are continuing to monitor and assess the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and we expect that our financial condition, liquidity and future results of operations will continue to be adversely affected. However, we cannot predict with certainty what the impact will be on future periods. For further information on the impacts of COVID-19 on our business, operations and financial results, see Part I, Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We have an allowance for doubtful accounts recorded as an estimate of the accounts receivable that may not be collected. This allowance is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis with consideration of historical write-off experience, age of receivables, market conditions, and a specific review for potential bad debts. Items that affect this balance mainly include bad debt expense and the write-off of accounts receivable balances.

A rollforward of our allowance for doubtful accounts is shown below:


	Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Balance, December 31, 2020	$	128.1
Provisions charged to earnings		9.2
Write-offs		(8.5	)
Translation adjustments		(3.3	)
Reclassifications and other		(0.1	)
Balance, June 30, 2021	$	125.4

Leases

We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and long-term lease liabilities are presented as separate line items on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Current operating lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate. We determine our incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date using our unsecured borrowing rate, adjusted for collateralization, lease term, economic environment, currency and other factors. ROU assets are recognized at commencement date at the value of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms include options to renew or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

Lease expenses for operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Goodwill Impairment

In accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill, we perform an annual impairment test of goodwill at our reporting unit level during the third quarter, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting units below their carrying value.

We evaluate the recoverability of goodwill utilizing an income approach that estimates the fair value of the future discounted cash flows to which the goodwill relates. This approach reflects management’s internal outlook of the reporting units, which is believed to be the best determination of value due to management’s insight and experience with the reporting units. Significant assumptions used in our goodwill impairment tests include: expected future revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, working capital levels, discount rates, and a terminal value multiple.

We performed our annual impairment test of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets during the third quarter of 2020 and determined that there was no impairment of our goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets.

The fair value of each reporting unit was at least 20% in excess of the respective reporting unit’s carrying value with the exception of the United Kingdom and Netherlands reporting units, both of which are part of the Northern Europe segment. The United Kingdom reporting unit had a fair value exceeding carrying value of approximately 12%. Key assumptions included in the United Kingdom discounted cash flow valuation performed during the third quarter of 2020 were a discount rate of 11.5%, a terminal value revenue growth rate of 1.0%, and a terminal value OUP margin of 3.1%. The Netherlands reporting unit had a fair value that exceeded its carrying value by approximately 3.3%. Key assumptions included in the Netherlands discounted cash flow valuation performed during the third quarter of 2020 included a discount rate of 10.9%, a terminal value revenue growth rate of 2.0%, and a terminal value OUP margin of 3.5%. Should the operations of the United Kingdom and Netherlands reporting units incur further decreases in the operating results, including declines in profitability and cash flow due to continued deterioration in macroeconomic, industry and market conditions, including uncertainty of the financial impacts from COVID-19, some or all of the recorded goodwill for the Netherlands or United Kingdom reporting units, which was $115.8 and $101.3, respectively, as of June 30, 2021, could be subject to impairment.

While our other reporting units' fair values exceeded 20% or more of their respective carrying values, given the uncertainty of the financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, there could be significant further decreases in the operating results of our reporting units for a sustained period, which may result in a recognition of goodwill impairment that could be material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Standards

(2) Recent Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Effective as of January 1, 2021

In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance on income taxes. The guidance removes certain exceptions to the general income tax accounting principles, and clarifies and amends existing guidance to facilitate consistent application of the accounting principles. The new guidance was effective for us as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued new guidance on equity method investments. The guidance clarifies the interactions between the existing accounting standards on equity securities, equity method and joint ventures, and derivatives and hedging. The new guidance addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The new guidance was effective for us as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for contract modifications, including hedging relationships, due to the transition from LIBOR and other interbank offerings related to alternative reference interest rates. The guidance is effective upon issuance and can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements, and we do not expect it to have a material impact going forward.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for change in accounting principle. Includes, but is not limited to, nature, reason, and method of adopting amendment to accounting standards or other change in accounting principle.

Revenue Recognition

Jun. 30, 2021

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition

(3) Revenue Recognition

For certain client contracts where we recognize revenues over time, we recognize the amount that we have the right to invoice, which corresponds directly to the value provided to the client of our performance to date.

We do not disclose the amount of unsatisfied performance obligations for client contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and those client contracts for which we recognize revenues at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. We have other contracts with revenues expected to be recognized subsequent to June 30, 2021, related to remaining performance obligations, which are not material.

We record accounts receivable when our right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets primarily relate to our rights to consideration for services provided that they are conditional on satisfaction of future performance obligations. We record contract liabilities (deferred revenue) when payments are made or due prior to the related performance obligations being satisfied. The current portion of our contract liabilities is included in accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not have any material contract assets or long-term contract liabilities.

Our deferred revenue was $29.8 as of June 30, 2021 and $34.9 as of December 31, 2020.

In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by service types for each of our reportable segments. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K for descriptions of revenue service types.

We did not record any net restructuring costs during the six months ended June 30, 2021. We recorded net restructuring costs of $48.2 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 in selling and administrative expenses, primarily related to severances and office closures and consolidations in multiple countries and territories. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we made payments of $22.4 out of our restructuring reserve that was created in 2020 and 2019. We expect a majority of the remaining $23.7 reserve will be paid by the end of 2021.

Changes in the restructuring reserve by reportable segment and Corporate are shown below.

Income Taxes

(7) Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense at an effective rate of 33.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to a negative effective rate of 15.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The 2020 rate was negative due to a pre-tax loss that primarily resulted from the impact from the goodwill impairment charge, related to our Germany reporting unit, which was non-deductible. The 2021 rate was favorably impacted by the scheduled reduction in the French corporate tax rate to 27.5%, the enacted 50% reduction in the French business tax rate, and a higher level of pre-tax earnings. The 33.2% effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was higher than the United States Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the French business tax, tax losses in certain countries for which we did not recognize a corresponding tax benefit due to valuation allowances, and the overall mix of earnings.

We recorded income tax expense at an effective rate of 33.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to a negative effective rate of 62.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The 2020 rate was negative due to the noted pre-tax loss that primarily resulted from the German goodwill impairment charge. The 2021 rate was favorably impacted by the scheduled reduction in the French corporate tax rate to 27.5%, the enacted 50% reduction in the French business tax rate, and a higher level of pre-tax earnings. The 33.3% effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was higher than the United States Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the French business tax, tax losses in certain countries for which we did not recognize a corresponding tax benefit due to valuation allowances, and the overall mix of earnings.

As of June 30, 2021, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $66.0 that would favorably impact the effective tax rate if recognized. As of December 31, 2020, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $64.5. We do not expect our unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next 12 months.

We conduct business globally in various countries and territories. We are routinely audited by the tax authorities of the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. Generally, the tax years that could be subject to examination are 2014 through 2021 for our major operations in France, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States. As of June 30, 2021, we were subject to tax audits in Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Netherlands, and the United States. We believe that the resolution of these audits will not have a material impact on earnings.

The calculations of net earnings (loss) per share - basic and net earnings (loss) per share - diluted were as follows:


	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended

Net earnings (loss) per share - diluted	$	2.02	$	(1.11	)	$	3.13	$	(1.07	)

There were 0.1 million and 1.1 million share-based awards excluded from the calculation of net earnings (loss) per share - diluted for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, because their impact was anti-dilutive. There were 0.2 million and 0.9 million share-based awards excluded from the calculation of net earnings (loss) per share - diluted for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, because their impact was anti-dilutive. Due to the net loss for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, the assumed exercise of share-based awards had an anti-dilutive effect and therefore were not included in the calculations of net loss per share - diluted for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020.

During 2021, we expect to make total contributions of approximately $17.0 to our pension plans and to fund our retiree health care payments as incurred.

Pension Settlement

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we fully settled our United States Qualified Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) liability. We purchased annuities of $19.2 and settled lump sum payments of $3.2 from the Plan in January and February 2020, respectively. The completion of lump sum payments in February and transfer of remaining participants to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation (PBGC) in March triggered final settlement of the plan. Upon settlement of the pension liability, we reclassified the related pension losses of $6.6, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The total amount of the required payout to plan participants was determined based on employee elections and market conditions at the time of settlement. The standard PBGC audit was completed in March 2021, and the remaining plan assets of $16.6 which were in excess of the pension liability upon settlement are being utilized to fund qualified 401(k) plan contributions in current and future years.

Noncontrolling interests, reported in total shareholders' equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, represent amounts related to majority-owned subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest. Net earnings attributable to these noncontrolling interests are recorded in interest and other expenses, net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recorded a benefit of $0.2 and $0.4 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1.1 and $1.0 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Dividends

The Board of Directors declared a semi-annual dividend of $1.26 and $1.09 per share, respectively, on May 7, 2021 and May 8, 2020. The 2021 dividends were paid on June 15, 2021 to shareholders of record as of June 1, 2021. The 2020 dividends were paid on June 15, 2020 to shareholders of record as of June 1, 2020.

Share Repurchases

In August 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 4.0 million shares of our common stock, with terms consistent with the previous authorizations. This authorization was in addition to the August 2019 and 2018 Board authorizations to purchase 6.0 million shares of our common stock each. Share repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions or similar facilities. During the first six months of 2021, we repurchased a total of 1.5 million shares under the 2019 authorization at a cost of $150.1. During the first six months of 2020, we repurchased a total of 0.9 million shares comprised of 0.8 million shares under the 2018 authorization and 0.1 million shares under the 2019 authorization, at a total cost of $63.8. The repurchases in the first half of 2020 all occurred within the first quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, there were 1.9 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2019 authorization and no shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2018 authorization.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

(13) Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Financial Instruments

We are exposed to various market risks relating to our ongoing business operations. The primary market risks, which are managed using derivative instruments, are foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. In certain circumstances, we enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) and cross-currency swaps to reduce the effects of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates on our cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our long-term debt obligations. We have historically managed interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and variable rate borrowings.

Net Investment Hedges

We use cross-currency swaps, forward contracts and a portion of our foreign currency denominated debt, a non-derivative financial instrument, to protect the value of our net investments in certain of our foreign subsidiaries. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of our net investments in foreign operations, the changes in fair values of the derivative instruments are recognized in foreign currency translation, a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), to offset the changes in the values of the net investments being hedged. For non-derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of net investments in foreign operations, the change in the carrying value of the designated portion of the non-derivative financial instrument due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates is recorded in foreign currency translation adjustments.

The €400.0 ($473.7) notes due September 2022 and the €500.0 ($589.1) notes due June 2026 were designated as a hedge of our net investment in our foreign subsidiaries with a Euro-functional currency as of June 30, 2021.

In September 2019, we entered into a cross-currency swap agreement that net converts fixed-rate Swiss franc (“CHF”) payments to fixed-rate United States dollar payments. This swap was designated as a net investment hedge of our foreign subsidiary with CHF functional currency.

The effect of our net investment hedges on AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was as follows:


	Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income
	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
Instrument	2021			2020			2021		2020
Euro Notes	$	(11.3	)	$	(18.3	)	$	32.4	$	(1.9	)
Cross-currency swaps		(7.2	)		9.9			13.3		2.4

Cash Flow Hedges

We use cross-currency swaps to hedge the changes in cash flows of certain of our foreign currency denominated debt due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For our cross-currency swaps, we record the change in carrying value of the foreign currency denominated debt due to changes in exchange rates into earnings each period. The changes in fair value of the cross-currency swap derivatives are recorded in AOCI with an immediate reclassification into earnings for the change in fair value attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

In April 2019, we entered into a cross-currency swap agreement to convert our intercompany fixed-rate, CHF denominated note, including the annual interest payment and the payment of remaining principal at maturity, to a fixed-rate Euro denominated note. The economic effect of the swap agreement is to eliminate the uncertainty of cash flows in CHF associated with the note by fixing the principal at €202.3 with a fixed annual interest rate of 1.256%. This hedging arrangement has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The swap matures in April 2022, which matches the term of the intercompany note. Gains and losses from the hedge offset the changes in the value of principal and interest payments as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. In September 2019, we entered into a cross-currency swap agreement to convert an additional intercompany fixed-rate CHF note, including the annual interest payment and the payment of remaining principal at maturity, to a fixed-rate Euro denominated note. The economic effect of the swap is identical to the original April 2019 swap, and fixes the principal of €55.4 with a fixed interest rate of 1.143%. The swap matures in September 2022, which matches the term of the intercompany note.

We assessed the hedging relationship at the inception of the hedge in order to determine whether the derivatives that are used in the hedging transaction are highly effective in offsetting the cash flows of the hedged item and will continue to assess the relationship on an ongoing basis. We use the hypothetical derivative method in conjunction with regression analysis using a third-party valuation to measure effectiveness of our cross-currency swap agreement.

The following tables present the impact that changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges had on other comprehensive income (“OCI”), AOCI and earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:


								(Loss) Gain Reclassified
	Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI							from AOCI into Income
	Three Months Ended June 30,						Location of (Loss) Gain Reclassified	Three Months Ended June 30,
Instrument	2021			2020			from AOCI into Income	2021			2020
Cross-currency swaps	$	2.2		$	(0.9	)	Interest and other expenses, net	$	(2.0	)	$	(1.0	)


								Gain (Loss) Reclassified
	(Loss) Gain Recognized in OCI							from AOCI into Income
	Six Months Ended June 30,						Location of Gain (Loss) Reclassified	Six Months Ended June 30,
Instrument	2021			2020			from AOCI into Income	2021			2020
Cross-currency swaps	$	(3.1	)	$	4.8		Interest and other expenses, net	$	3.2		$	4.7

We expect the net amount of pre-tax derivative gains included in AOCI at June 30, 2021 to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months will not be significant. The actual amount that will be reclassified to earnings over the next 12 months will vary due to future currency exchange rates.

Non-designated instruments

We also use certain derivatives, which are not designated as hedging instruments, as economic hedges of foreign currency and interest rate exposure. For our forward contracts that are not designated as hedges, any gain or loss resulting from the change in fair value is recognized in current period earnings. These gains or losses are offset by the exposure related to receivables and payables with our foreign subsidiaries and to interest due on our Euro-denominated notes, which is paid annually in June and September. The effect of

our forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments on the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was as follows:


	Location of Gain (Loss)	Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income
Instrument	Recognized in Income	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
		2021		2020		2021			2020
Foreign currency forward contracts	Interest and other expenses, net	$	1.4	$	0.5	$	(5.5	)	$	0.3

Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value, except for the Euro-denominated notes, because the interest rates are variable and reflect current market rates. The fair value of the Euro-denominated notes, as observable at commonly quoted intervals (Level 2 inputs), was $1,119.9 and $1,159.1 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $1,062.8 and $1,094.5, respectively.

Our deferred compensation plan assets were $135.0 and $119.4 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We determine the fair value of these assets, comprised of publicly traded securities, by using market quotes as of the last day of the period (Level 1 inputs).

We measure the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps at the value based on either directly or indirectly observable inputs from third parties (Level 2 inputs).

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Data

(15) Segment Data

We are organized and managed primarily on a geographic basis. Each country and business unit generally has its own distinct operations and management team, providing services under our global brands, and maintains its own financial reports. We have an executive sponsor for each global brand who is responsible for ensuring the integrity and consistency of delivery locally. Each operation reports directly or indirectly through a regional manager, to a member of executive management. Given this reporting structure, we operate using the following reporting segments: Americas, which includes United States and Other Americas; Southern Europe, which includes France, Italy and Other Southern Europe; Northern Europe; and APME.

The segments derive a significant majority of their revenues from our staffing and interim services. The remaining revenues within these segments are derived from our outcome-based solutions and consulting services, permanent recruitment services, and other services. Segment revenues represent sales to external clients. We provide services to a wide variety of clients, none of which individually comprise a significant portion of revenues for us as a whole. Due to the nature of our business, we generally do not have export sales.
