Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition |
On February 1, 2005, we issued a press release announcing our results of operations for the three-month period and year ended December 31, 2004. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
On February 1, 2005, we are making available certain restated Net Earnings Per Share Diluted amounts for the quarterly and annual periods from 2001 to 2004. During September 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued Issue No. 04-8, The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share (EITF 04-8), which requires the effect of contingently convertible debt securities with a market price trigger to be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, using the if-converted method, regardless of whether the market price trigger has been met. EITF 04-8 also requires restatement of previously reported earnings. Our convertible debentures, issued in August 2001, have such a feature, and therefore we have restated Net Earnings Per Share Diluted for all periods since their issuance. A copy of these restated Net Earnings Per Share Diluted amounts is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Manpower Reports 4th Quarter and Full-Year 2004 Results
MILWAUKEE, WI, USA, February 1, 2005 Manpower Inc. (NYSE: MAN) today reported that net income for the three months ended December 31, 2004 increased 39 percent to $69.6 million, or 73 cents per diluted share, from $49.9 million, or 61 cents per diluted share, a year earlier. Revenues for the fourth quarter totaled $4.1 billion, an increase of 24 percent from the year-earlier period.
Results for the fourth quarter were positively affected by relatively stronger foreign currencies compared to the prior year period. On a constant currency basis, earnings per diluted share for the quarter were 69 cents on a 16 percent revenue increase.
The Manpower team executed well in the fourth quarter, reflecting the strength and momentum that we gained throughout 2004, with significant contributions from our European operations and Jefferson Wells, our financial professional services unit, said Jeffrey A. Joerres, Chairman and CEO of Manpower Inc.
The fourth quarter also provided continuing evidence that the combined offering of Manpower and Right Management Consultants our career transition and organizational consulting unit is redefining the services that are required to compete effectively in this industry.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2004 totaled $245.7 million or $2.59 per diluted share, up 78 percent from $137.7 million, or $1.69 per diluted share in 2003. Revenues for the year were $14.9 billion, an increase of 23 percent from the prior year. On a constant currency basis, earnings per diluted share for the year were $2.44 on a revenue increase of 14 percent.
On a full year basis, earnings per share reached a record high of $2.59 per share for 2004, said Joerres. Throughout the year, we made investments and took actions that position us well for the future. We are confident that our unique service mix, designed to meet customer needs throughout the employment and business cycle, will continue to move us forward in 2005.
As we look to the first quarter, we anticipate earnings per diluted share to range from 34 to 37 cents. This includes a one-cent benefit from currency.
In conjunction with its fourth quarter earnings release, Manpower will broadcast its conference call live over the Internet on February 1 at 8:00 a.m. CST (9:00 a.m. EST). Interested parties are invited to listen by logging on to http://investor.manpower.com.

During September 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued Issue No. 04-8, The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share (EITF 04-8), which requires the effect of contingently convertible debt securities with a market price trigger to be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, using the if-converted method, regardless of whether the market price trigger has been met. EITF 04-8 also requires restatement of previously reported earnings. Our convertible debentures, issued in August 2001, have such a feature, and therefore we have restated Net Earnings Per Share - Diluted for all periods since the issuance.
