ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) is a global leader in workforce solutions, providing staffing and recruitment services across various industries. The company operates in North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific, catering to the diverse needs of its clients. Despite its strong market presence, MAN faces competition from other staffing firms like Adecco and Randstad.
On October 16, 2025, MAN reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.38, which fell short of the estimated $0.82. This discrepancy is partly due to restructuring costs and non-cash currency translation losses in Argentina, which reduced EPS by $0.45. Excluding these charges, the adjusted EPS was $0.83, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.82, as highlighted by Zacks.
The company generated revenue of approximately $4.63 billion, slightly surpassing the estimated $4.62 billion. This revenue figure marks a 2.3% increase from the previous year, exceeding the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.64%. Despite the positive revenue surprise, MAN’s net earnings for the quarter were $18 million, down from $22.8 million a year ago.
The price-to-sales ratio of 0.09 and enterprise value to sales ratio of 0.17 suggest the stock might be undervalued relative to its sales. The debt-to-equity ratio of 0.81 shows moderate debt levels.
The company’s gross profit margin was 16.6%, influenced by lower permanent recruitment activity and a shift towards enterprise clients. Despite these challenges, MAN’s current ratio of 0.99 indicates it has nearly enough current assets to cover its liabilities. The enterprise value to operating cash flow ratio is 9.78, reflecting the company’s ability to cover its enterprise value with operating cash flow.
