Robert Half International Inc
Investor Relations

Robert Half International is a staffing and professional services company that helps businesses hire people for office and project work. It places temporary, contract, and permanent workers in areas like accounting, finance, administrative support, technology, and legal support. It also owns Protiviti, which advises companies on risk, finance, technology, and internal controls. The company mainly sells recruiting and consulting services to employers that need specialized talent or extra help on a short-term basis. Its customers include corporations, government-related organizations, and smaller businesses that do not want to build large in-house hiring teams for every role. Robert Half makes money by charging fees for successful placements and by billing clients for staffing and consulting work. Its business model sits between job seekers and employers. Robert Half screens candidates, matches them to openings, and earns a spread or fee when the worker is placed or the consulting project is delivered. That makes it different from a normal software company or manufacturer: its value comes from its recruiting network, industry knowledge, and ability to fill hard-to-hire office roles quickly.

AI Summary
Q1 2026

Revenue: Robert Half reported first-quarter global enterprise revenues of $1.3 billion, down 4% reported and down 6% on an adjusted basis, but management said talent solutions posted a second straight quarter of positive sequential growth on a same-day constant-currency basis.

Outlook: Second-quarter guidance calls for revenue of $1.275 billion to $1.375 billion and EPS of $0.20 to $0.30, with a $0.03 per-share severance charge tied to Protiviti restructuring.

Momentum: Management said talent solutions trends improved through March and early April, and the current run rate is stronger than the Q2 guidance implies, leaving some room for upside.

Protiviti: Protiviti faces a tougher U.S. financial services regulatory backdrop, prompting $30 million of annual cost cuts and a $5 million Q2 severance charge.

AI: Management said AI is improving candidate matching and recruiter productivity, but so far it is showing little evidence of broad job displacement in the roles Robert Half places.

Recovery: The company expects Q3 to return to year-over-year revenue growth in talent solutions, helped by pent-up demand, lean client staffing, and improving business confidence.
