PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF
BUSINESS. (a) GeneralBUSINESS.History and Development of
Business. Registrant,BusinessKelly Services, Inc. (“Kelly” or the “Company”), a successor to the business established by William R. Kelly in 1946, was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on August 27, 1952.
Throughout its existence, registrant hasFounded as a temporary staffing company, we have been engaged in providing staffing services to customers in a variety of industries throughout our 56-year history.Kelly operates 2,400 company-owned offices, both stand-alone and customer on-site, in 26 countries throughout the world. Each office provides a specific mix of services from one or more of our divisions and subsidiaries, according to market demand. We serve a cross-section of customers from industry, commerce, government, and various professions. Our clients include some of the largest corporations in the world and successful niche businesses.
Kelly’s history has been marked by strategic growth and global expansion. This growth into new geographic areas, as well as business and service lines, has been achieved through both internally developed start-up operations and outside acquisitions of existing companies. When considering acquisitions, we seek out companies with strong leadership, a team-based culture and shared business values in locations that demonstrate demand for quality staffing services.
In 2001, Kelly formed BTI Consultants Hong Kong, Ltd., which expanded our staffing services in Asia and the Pacific Rim.
During 2000, we completed three acquisitions, further increasing our domestic and international reach. Extra ETT in Spain, a company that specializes in staffing for the automotive industry, gave Kelly a global automotive presence in three continents; Business Trends Group, including Business Trends Pte Ltd and BTI Consultants Pte Ltd, is headquartered in Singapore, and extended Kelly’s staffing services to six Southeast Asia countries; and ProStaff Group, a leading staffing company based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, strengthened our Midwest presence.
Over the years, Kelly has developed a number of specialized staffing services in response to our changing global markets, new economies, and advances in workplace technology. We have also designed many assessment, training, placement, and evaluation systems that ensure Kelly’s temporary
help service business. Duringstaff meet thelast fiscal year, registrant continued toneeds of our diverse client base.We are headquartered in Troy, Michigan, U.S.A.

Kelly’s quarterly operating results are affected by the seasonality of our customers’ businesses. Demand for our services historically has been lower during the first and fourth quarters as a
numberresult offoreign countries. The most significant marks are "Kelly"holidays, and"Kelly Girl", which have indeterminable duration. (v) Seasonal Business Implications.

Contracts.ContractsAlthough
registrantKelly conducts business under various government contracts, that portion ofregistrant'sour business is not significant.(x) Competition. RegistrantCompetition
The worldwide temporary staffing services industry is very competitive and highly fragmented, with limited barriers for entry into the market. Kelly is considered to be a pioneer in the staffing industry and is one of the largest global suppliers of
temporary helpstaffing services, competing in global, national, regional, and local markets.In the United
States. Several companies which operate nationally offer services competitive to those provided by registrant,States, approximately 100 national competitors operate; anda large number ofmore than 21,000 smaller organizationsoperating regionally or locallycompete in varying degrees at local levels. Several similar companies—global, national, and local—compete indifferent localities where registrant operates branch offices. The most significantforeign markets. In 2002, Kelly’s largest competitors were Adecco, S.A., Manpower, Inc., Randstad Holding N.V., Vedior N.V., Spherion Corporation, and CDI Corporation.Key factors that influence success in our industry include geographic coverage, breadth of service, quality of service, and price.
Geographic presence is of utmost importance, as temporary employees are generally unwilling to travel great distances for assignment, and customers prefer working with companies in their local market. Breadth of service has become more critical as customers seek “one-stop shopping” for all their staffing needs.
Quality of service, another factor, is highly dependent on the availability of qualified, competent temporary employees, and Kelly’s ability to recruit, screen, train, retain and manage a pool of employees who match the skills required by particular customers. Conversely, during an economic downturn, Kelly must balance competitive
factors are price and servicepricing pressures with the need tocustomersretain a qualified workforce.Price competition in the
formstaffing industry is intense—particularly for office clerical and light industrial personnel—and pricing pressure from customers and competitors continues to be significant.In summary, Kelly expects that the level of
timely, efficientcompetition will continue to remain high in the foreseeable future—a factor that could limit our ability to increase or maintain our market share andreliable temporary help.

Highly Competitive Markets
The worldwide staffing services market is highly competitive with limited barriers to entry. Kelly competes in global, national, regional and local markets with full-service and specialized temporary staffing companies. In addition to Kelly, several competitors, including Adecco, Manpower, Randstadt, Vedior, Spherion and CDI have very substantial marketing and financial resources. Price competition in the staffing industry is significant, particularly for the provision of office clerical and light industrial personnel, and pricing pressures from competitors and customers are increasing. Kelly expects that the level of competition will remain high in the future, which could limit Kelly’s ability to maintain or increase its market share or profitability.
Fluctuations in General Economic Conditions
Demand for staffing services is significantly affected by the general level of economic activity and unemployment in the United States. When economic activity increases, temporary employees are often added before full-time employees are hired. However, as economic activity slows, many companies reduce their use of temporary employees before laying off full-time employees. In addition, Kelly may experience more competitive pricing pressure during such periods of economic downturn. Therefore, any significant economic downturn could have a material adverse impact on Kelly’s profitability.
Ability to Attract and Retain Qualified Candidates
Kelly depends upon its ability to attract qualified temporary personnel who possess the skills and experience necessary to meet the staffing requirements of its clients. Kelly must continually evaluate its base of available qualified personnel to keep pace with changing client needs. Competition for individuals with proven professional skills is constant, and demand for such individuals is expected to remain very strong for the foreseeable future. There is always uncertainty whether qualified personnel will continue to be available to Kelly in sufficient numbers and on terms of employment acceptable to Kelly.
5
Liabilities for Client and Employee Actions
Temporary staffing services providers employ and assign people generally in the workplace of other businesses. Attendant risks of such activities include possible claims of discrimination and harassment, employment of illegal aliens, violations of wage and hour requirements, and errors and omissions of its temporary employees, particularly for the actions of professionals (e.g., attorneys, accountants, and scientists). Misuse of client proprietary information, misappropriation of funds, other criminal activity and other similar claims are also attendant risks.
Kelly has policies and guidelines in place to help reduce its exposure to these risks and has purchased insurance policies against certain risks in amounts that it believes to be adequate. Although Kelly historically has not had any material losses resulting from these risks, there can be no assurance that Kelly will not experience such losses in the future or that Kelly’s insurance will remain available on reasonable terms or be sufficient in amount or scope to cover any such liability.
Highly Dependent on Key Management
Kelly is highly dependent on its management. Kelly believes that its success has depended to a significant extent upon the efforts and abilities of its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Terence E. Adderley, and certain other key executives. The loss of the services of Mr. Adderley or any of the other key executives could have a material adverse effect upon the Company.
Government Regulations
Government regulations may result in prohibition or restriction of certain types of employment services or the imposition of new or additional benefit, licensing or tax requirements that may reduce Kelly’s future earnings. Such legislative or regulatory changes could include, among others, the prohibition or restriction of certain types of employment services or the imposition of new or additional benefit, licensing or tax requirements with respect to the provision of employment services. There can be no assurance that Kelly will be able to increase the fees charged to its clients in a timely manner and in a sufficient amount to cover increased costs as a result of any of the foregoing.
Foreign Currency Fluctuations
Kelly’s operations are conducted in 25 countries outside the U.S. and Kelly’s local operations are reported in the applicable foreign currencies and then translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable foreign currency exchange rates for inclusion in Kelly’s consolidated financial statements. Exchange rates for currencies of these countries may fluctuate in relation to the U.S. dollar and such fluctuations may have an adverse or favorable effect on Kelly’s operating results when translating foreign currency into U.S. dollars.
Stock Price Fluctuations
Our stock price can fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, including factors listed in these “Risk Factors,” many of which are beyond our control. These factors include actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results; announcements of new services by us or our competitors; announcements relating to strategic relationships or acquisitions; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; and changes in general economic conditions. Because of this, we may fail to meet the expectations of our shareholders or of securities analysts, and our stock price could fluctuate as a result.
Concentration of Ownership
Terence E. Adderley, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and certain trusts with respect to which he acts as trustee or co-trustee, control approximately 92.4% of our outstanding Class B common stock, our only class of stock entitled to voting rights. Mr. Adderley is therefore able to exercise voting control of the Company with respect to matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.

MANAGEMENT'SMANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OFOPERATIONS.OPERATIONS.Results of Operations
19952002 versus
19942001Sales
reached a record level of $2.69for 2002 totaled $4.323 billion,in 1995,an increase of14%1.6% compared to the $4.257 billion reported in the prior year. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in average hourly bill rates of 1.4%. Hours worked were essentially unchanged year over1994.year. Sales increases in the U.S. Commercial Staffing and Professional, Technical and Staffing Alternatives (PTSA) segments were partially offset by a slight sales decrease in the International segment.Gross profit of $692.7 million was 0.7% lower than the gross profit of $697.9 million in 2001. Gross profit as a percentage of sales
grew most rapidly, accounting for 19%was 16.0% in 2002, a decrease of 0.4 percentage point compared to the 16.4% rate recorded in the prior year. Gross profit rates of the PTSA and International segments declined while U.S. Commercial Staffing remained relatively unchanged. The decline in gross profit rates was due primarily to a continuing shift in the mix of customers to large corporate and national accounts and a decline in recruitment fee income.Many of the Company’s large corporate and national account customers have negotiated high volume global service agreements, which tend to result in lower gross profit rates than those earned with the Company’s small and medium size customers. The Company’s strategy is focused on serving and growing these large corporate and national accounts. As customer mix shifts to large corporate and national accounts, the Company’s average gross margins tend to decrease. Offsetting this impact, there are economies of scale and other expense savings associated with servicing these large accounts that tend to mitigate the overall effect on profitability. The Company expects this trend to continue in 2003.

Fee based recruitment income, which represents approximately one percent of the Company’s total
companysales,up from 15% in 1994. Costhas a significant impact on gross profit rates. There are very low direct costs of servicesrepresenting payroll and related taxes and benefits for temporary employees, increased 13%. Increasesassociated with recruitment income. Therefore, decreases inpay rates, payroll taxes and other direct costs accounted for these changes. Overall, the percentage ofpermanent placement fees can have a disproportionate impact on gross profit rates. As compared tosales increasedlast year, many customers reduced or eliminated the recruiting of full-time employees and the conversions of temporary to20.1% in 1995 from 19.6% in 1994.permanent staff. The Company expects that recruitment fee income will begin to increase when economic growth and job creation resume.Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased 18% over 1994. As a percentageof $662.3 million were 1.1% lower than last year. The expense rate improved to 15.3% of salesexpenses increasedin 2002 as compared to16.2%, up from15.7% in1994.2001. Theincrease principally reflectsdecrease was due primarily to staff reductions and lower telecommunication and recruiting costs, which were theopeningresult ofnew offices,expense reduction initiatives the Company implemented during 2001, and the elimination of goodwill amortization (see discussion to follow in “Critical Accounting Policies”). The staff reductions in both field operations and headquarters units generated savings of approximately $6 million in 2002 as compared with the prior year. The Company did not incur significant termination costs as a result of these staff reductions. The majority of the staff reductions took place during the second and third quarters of 2001. These savings were partially offset by field and headquarters bonus payments, which increased due to the Company’s improved performance, the effect ofacquired companies for full yearscurrency rates on international expenses andnormal growth.increased depreciation expense as a result of the Company’s ongoing deployment of information technology programs.Earnings from operations in
19952002 totaledjust over $105$30.4 million,a new recordan 8.7% increase compared to the $28.0 million reported for 2001. The increase in earnings from operations was theCompany, and an increaseresult of15% over 1994. These earningsmany factors discussed above, including the elimination of goodwill amortization of $2.7 million. Earnings were3.9%0.7% of sales for both 2002 and 2001.Net interest income for 2002 was $362 thousand, a $743 thousand improvement compared to last year’s net interest expense of $381 thousand. The improvement is primarily attributable to higher cash balances and lower short-term debt levels, offset by the
same as in 1994.-7- Interest income increased to $8.2 million in 1995 which was 22% higher than the $6.7 million earned in 1994. The increase resulted from higher ratesimpact ofreturn on investments.lower interest rates.Earnings before
incometaxes werea record $113.3$30.8 million, an increase of15%11.5% from 2001. Earnings before taxes averaged 0.7% of sales in 2002 and 0.6% of sales in 2001. The effective income tax rate in 2002 was 39.6%, a 0.4 percentage point improvement compared with last year’s 40.0% rate. The decrease in the overall income tax rate was the result of several factors including the favorable settlement of prior years’ tax audits, offset by an increase in valuation reserves related to the Company’s ability to utilize foreign net operating loss carryforwards.Net earnings were $18.6 million in 2002, a 12.2% increase compared to the $16.5 million earned in 2001. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.52, an increase of 13.0% as compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.46 in 2001.
U.S. Commercial Staffing
Sales in the U.S. Commercial Staffing segment, which represented 49% of total Company sales in 2002 and 2001, totaled $2.105 billion in 2002, a 0.5% increase compared to the $2.095 billion reported for 2001. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in average hourly bill rates of 0.6%, offset by a 0.1% decrease in hours worked. Year-over-year sales comparisons were: down 12.3% in the first quarter, flat in the second quarter, up 6.7% in the third quarter and up 8.9% in the fourth quarter. Sales trends were relatively stable month by month over
1994. Pre-tax marginsthe course of the fourth quarter.U.S. Commercial Staffing earnings totaled $118.7 million, an increase of 3.5% in 2002, as a result of the 0.5% sales increase, relatively stable gross profit rates and a 1.8% decrease in expenses. The gross profit rate averaged 15.8% in both 2002 and 2001. Improvements in benefit costs were offset by the impact of an ongoing shift in mix of sales to larger corporate and national accounts. Year-over-year gross profit rate comparisons for U.S. Commercial Staffing were down in the first and second quarters and up in the third and fourth quarters. The increase in gross profit rate in the second half of 2002 reflected improvement in benefits costs relative to last year, including workers’ compensation expense, and increased fee-based income in the fourth quarter. Given relatively high and rising unemployment in the U.S., the Company expects an increase in state unemployment taxes in 2003 which, to the extent not recovered through pricing actions, may decrease the gross profit rate for U.S. Commercial Staffing.
10
U.S. Commercial Staffing expenses were tightly controlled and decreased 1.8% year-over-year primarily due to staff reductions and lower recruiting costs, partially offset by higher field bonus payouts and the impact of the Company’s ongoing deployment of new front office systems.
Professional, Technical and Staffing Alternatives
Professional, Technical and Staffing Alternatives (PTSA) includes the following business units: Kelly Scientific Resources, Kelly Healthcare Resources, Kelly Home Care Services, Kelly Automotive Services Group, Kelly Engineering Resources, Kelly IT Resources, Kelly Law Registry, Kelly Financial Resources, Kelly Management Services, Kelly Staff Leasing, Kelly HR Consulting, HRfirst and Kelly Vendor Management Solutions.
Sales in the PTSA segment totaled $1.137 billion, an increase of 5.7% compared to the $1.075 billion reported in 2001. The growth is due to an increase in average hourly bill rates of 4.8%, partially offset by a decrease in hours worked of 0.1% in the professional and technical businesses. In addition, there was an increase in revenues of 7.4% in the staffing alternatives businesses, which include staff leasing and management services. PTSA sales represented 26% of total Company sales in 2002 and 25% in 2001.
During 2002, Kelly Healthcare Resources and Kelly Financial Resources continued to be the leading performers, exhibiting sales growth of over 25% as compared to 2001. Kelly Staff Leasing, Kelly Engineering Resources, Kelly IT Resources, Kelly Management Services and Kelly Law Registry also maintained positive sales growth in 2002. Kelly Automotive Services Group posted positive growth in the second half of the year, resulting in a slight overall increase year over year. However, Kelly Home Care Services experienced a significant revenue decline during 2002 as compared to 2001. This decrease, however, was consistent with industry trends in its staffing sector.
Although Kelly Staff Leasing experienced positive sales growth in 2002, we are changing their customer mix to better position this business for the long term. As a result, we expect our staff leasing sales to decline by 2% to 3% in the first quarter of 2003. However, with a stronger customer base, we expect there will be a small positive impact to earnings.
PTSA earnings from operations totaled $50.5 million in 2002, an increase of 6.2% from 2001. This was the result of the 5.7% increase in sales, partially offset by a 0.5 percentage point decrease in the gross profit rate and the effect of holding expenses to a 1.1% increase.
The decrease in the gross profit rate was due to changes in business unit mix and rate decreases in certain business units, such as Kelly Automotive Services Group and Kelly IT Resources. The most significant factor impacting the business unit mix was the decline in sales at the Kelly Home Care Services unit, which has a higher than average gross profit rate. These declines were partially offset by a 20.8% year-over-year increase in PTSA fee-based income. As discussed with respect to U.S. Commercial Staffing, the Company expects an increase in state unemployment taxes in 2003 which, to the extent not recovered through pricing actions, may decrease the gross profit rate for PTSA.
PTSA expenses increased 1.1% from the prior year, due to higher field bonus payouts, the impact of the Company’s ongoing deployment of new front office systems, higher liability insurance costs and increased facilities expense associated with the expansion of Kelly Financial Resources and Kelly Healthcare Resources. This was partially offset by the elimination of goodwill amortization and lower recruiting costs. Expenses as a percent of sales decreased to 9.6% in 2002 from 10.0% in 2001.
International
Translated U.S. dollar sales in International totaled $1.082 billion, a 0.5% decrease compared to the $1.087 billion reported in 2001. This decrease resulted primarily from a 19% decrease in recruitment fees and a 0.2% decrease in hours worked. U.S. dollar-average bill rates were essentially unchanged year over year. International sales represented 25% of total Company sales in 2002 and 26% of total Company sales in 2001.
The Americas and Asia-Pacific, the first regions within the International segment to reflect the negative impact of the global economic slowdown, are continuing to show improvement. Year-over-year sales comparisons in continental Europe and the United Kingdom remained negative throughout 2002.
11
During 2002, the U.S. dollar continued to fall in comparison to many foreign currencies, including the Euro and British pound. As a result, Kelly’s U.S. dollar translated sales and expenses were higher than would have otherwise been reported. On a constant currency basis, international revenue decreased 4%. This compared to 3% overall constant currency sales growth in 2001. Year-over-year constant currency sales declined 6% in the first quarter, 2% in the second quarter, 4% in the third quarter and 2% in the fourth quarter. If foreign currency exchange rates remain at their current levels, Kelly’s first and second quarter 2003 sales will be favorably impacted.
International earnings totaled $5.2 million, a decrease of 44.7% from 2001, resulting from the 0.5% decrease in sales and a 0.8 percentage point decline in the gross profit rate, partially offset by a 2.6% reduction in expenses.
The decline in the gross profit rate was primarily due to the 19% decrease in recruitment fee income, with the most significant decrease occurring in the United Kingdom. On a year-over-year basis, translated U.S. dollar expenses in the International segment decreased 2.6%, primarily due to lower wages and recruiting costs and the elimination of goodwill amortization. On a constant currency basis, expenses decreased 7%.
Results of Operations
2001 versus 2000
Sales of services for 2001 totaled $4.257 billion, a decrease of 5.1% compared to the $4.487 billion reported in the prior year. The decrease was a result of a decline in hours worked of 7.6% partially offset by an increase in average hourly bill rates of 1.9%. Sales decreases in the U.S. Commercial Staffing and International segments were partially offset by a sales increase in the PTSA segment.
The 2001 gross profit rate averaged 16.4%, a decrease of 1.3 percentage points compared to the 17.7% rate earned in 2000. This reflected decreases in the gross profit rates of all three of the Company’s business segments. The decline in gross profit rates was due primarily to a continuing shift in the mix of customers to large corporate and national accounts and a decline in recruitment fee income.
Selling, general and administrative expenses expressed as a percentage of sales were

U.S. Commercial Staffing earnings from operations totaled $114.7 million in 2001, a decrease of 36.8% compared to the $181.4 million reported in 2000. The 10.0% sales decrease, combined with a 1.5 percentage point decrease in the gross profit rate, produced the 36.8% earnings decline. The decline in gross profit rates reflects both an ongoing shift in mix of sales to larger corporate and national accounts and decreases in fee-based income. The year-over-year decrease in recruitment fee income for U.S. Commercial Staffing was 33.4%.

The growth is due to an increase in average hourly bill rates of 5.5% partially offset by a decrease in hours worked of 5.2% in the professional and technical businesses. In addition, there was an increase in revenues of 6.0% in the staffing alternatives businesses, which include staff leasing and management services. On a year-over-year basis, PTSA salesacquisitions completedgrew 3.6% in the first quarter and 3.9% in the second quarter, but decreased 0.3% in the third quarter and 0.9% in the fourth quarter.Results were mixed among the 13 business units that comprise PTSA. Kelly Healthcare Resources, Kelly Financial Resources and Kelly Vendor Management Solutions were the leading performers during the year, exhibiting positive sales growth as compared to 2000. Kelly Staff Leasing maintained positive sales growth throughout the year as well. However, several units within PTSA did experience sales decreases as the year progressed. In particular, Kelly Automotive Services Group and Kelly Law Registry experienced double-digit sales declines as compared to 2000. These decreases, however, were consistent with industry trends in their staffing sectors.
PTSA sales represented 25% of total Company sales in 2001 and 24% of total Company sales in 2000.
PTSA earnings for 2001 decreased 34.8% from 2000. During the

In addition, recruitment fee income decreased significantly inpay rates and payroll taxes accounted for this change. Gross profit, as a percent of sales, rose from 19.5% in 1993 to 19.6% in 1994.

Translated U.S. dollar sales in International totaled $1.087 billion in 2001, a 1.3% decrease compared to the $1.101 billion reported in 2000. This decrease resulted from a decline in the U.S. dollar average hourly bill rates of 4.4% partially offset by an increase in hours worked of 3.3%.
However, on a constant currency basis, international revenue increased 3%. This compared to 10% same currency sales growth in 2000. Year-over-year same currency sales grew 6% in the first quarter, 4% in the second quarter and 2% in the third quarter, but declined 3% in the fourth quarter. Global slowing in staffing demand worsened over the course of 2001. The slowdown was initially felt in Australia, Canada and Puerto Rico. In the fourth quarter, the decline was most apparent in Continental Europe.
International sales represented 26% of total Company sales in 2001 and 25% of total Company sales in 2000.
International earnings from operations were $9.4 million for 2001, a 56.3% decrease compared to the $21.5 million reported in 2000. The decrease in earnings from operations was the result of the 1.3% decrease in sales, a 0.5 percentage point decline in the gross profit rate and a 1.7% increase in expenses.
Decreases in fee-based income, particularly in the United Kingdom, negatively impacted gross profit rates. However, the Company continued to see significant progress in the U.K. throughout the year. Expense reduction initiatives allowed the U.K. to significantly improve profitability in 2001. Finally, during
1994. Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 17% during 1994. This increase principally reflected costs added by acquired companies,2001, the Company expanded geographic coverage to 26 countries with the opening ofnew officesan office in Hong Kong.13
Liquidity and
normal growth.Capital ResourcesHistorically, Kelly has financed its operations through cash generated by operating activities and revolving credit facilities. As
a percenthighlighted in the Statements ofsales, expenses declinedCash Flows, the Company’s liquidity and available capital resources are impacted by four key components: current cash and equivalents, operating activities, investing activities and financing activities.Cash and Equivalents
Cash and equivalents totaled $101 million at the end of 2002, an increase of $18 million from
16.2%the $83 million at year-end 2001.Operating Activities
In 2002, the Company generated $90 million in cash from operating activities, as compared to
15.7%$145 million in1994. Excluding2001 and $89 million in 2000. The most significant reason for theeffects of the employee leasing business (with its inherently lower cost structure), the expense to sales relationship was 16.1%decline in1994. Earningscash generated from operations in19942002 versus 2001, as well as the increase in cash generated from operations in 2001 versus 2000, was a change in accounts receivable. The Company experienced declining revenues in 2001 which caused a decrease in accounts receivable and generated $86 million in cash. During 2002, revenues increased slightly and were improving as the year progressed. As a result, the Company used $9 million of cash to fund accounts receivable.Accounts receivable totaled
approximately $92$568 million at year-end 2002. Global days sales outstanding for the fourth quarter were 46 days, which is a one-day improvement versus the 47 days in the prior year. If the economy recovers in 2003, the Company may experience improving revenue, which may require the Company to fund a resulting increase in accounts receivable.The Company’s working capital position was $352 million at the end of 2002, an increase of
44% over 1993. Interest income$30 million from 2001 and $16 million from 2000. The current ratio was 2.0 at the end of 2002 as compared with 1.9 in 2001 and 2000.Investing Activities
In 2002, the Company used $37 million on investing activities compared to $49 million in 2001 and $69 million in 2000. The most significant reasons for
1994 was $6.7the continued reductions in cash used for investing activities are decreasing levels of capital expenditures and the one-time purchase of a building in 2001. In addition, the Company spent $21 million on three acquisitions in 2000. No acquisitions were made in 2002 or 2001.Capital expenditures for 2002 totaled $33 million, down
3.6%23% from the1993 level$43 million spent in 2001, reflecting the planned delay of$7.0several projects. Of the total $33 million spent in 2002, approximately 75% related to information technology. The Company’s capital expenditures peaked in 1999 at $77 million, decreased in 2000 to $54 million and decreased again in 2001 to $43 million. ThereductionCompany plans to return to a more normal capital spending level in 2003, when capital expenditures are expected to total between $40 and $45 million.During the first quarter of 2001, the Company acquired a fully leased commercial office building that will be used for future expansion. This transaction was the second leg of a tax-free exchange for undeveloped land the Company initiated in the
interest rates accountedfourth quarter of 2000. The land was effectively swapped for theslight declinebuilding, but ininterest incomeaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles, it is shown as a cash acquisition for $11.8 million during 2001. The related $10.3 million cash proceeds from theyear. Earningssale of property is reflected in the 2000 cash from investing activities.Financing Activities
In 2002, the Company used $38 million in financing activities compared to $55 million in 2001 and $30 million in 2000. The decrease in 2002 as compared to 2001 was primarily related to lower short-term debt repayments and reduced dividends offset by the purchase of treasury stock. The increase in 2001 as compared to 2000 was primarily related to the net repayment of short-term debt in 2001 as compared to additional borrowing in 2000, as well as reduced dividends.
14
Short-term debt totaled $25 million at year end 2002 compared to $33 million at year end 2001 and $58 at year end 2000. All short-term borrowings are foreign currency denominated and reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations. At year end, debt represented less than 4% of total capital.
As of year-end 2002, the Company had $76 million of committed unused credit facilities. The Company’s $100 million five-year, unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility expires in October of 2003. It is the Company’s intention to complete a new unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility prior to expiration of the current facility. The Company anticipates no significant change in financial covenants and believes it will have a new credit facility in place before
taxesOctober. At year-end, the Company had additional uncommitted one-year credit facilities totaling $51 million, under which the Company had borrowed less than one million dollars.Dividends paid per common share were
$98.5 million, an increase$.40 in 2002, a decrease of39%. Pretax margins were 4.2%52.9% from 2001 dividends of $.85 per share. The dividend was reduced in1994, improved from 3.6% in 1993. Income taxes increased 42% over 1993, with an effective taxthe fourth quarter of 2001 to a new rate of38.0%, compared$.10 per share per quarter, or $.40 per share annually. Annual cash savings from this reduction are over $21 million per year. Dividends in 2000 were $.99 per share.On July 1, 2002, the Company repurchased 500,000 shares of Class A common stock from the William R. Kelly Estate. The total value of the share repurchase was $13.1 million, or $26.28 per share, representing a 2.7% discount to the closing market price of Kelly Class A common stock on June 28, 2002.

The Company continues to carry no long-term debt and expects to meet its cash requirements, including possible increases in accounts receivable as discussed above, principally through cash generated from operations, available cash and equivalents and committed unused credit facilities.
Market Risk-Sensitive Instruments and Positions
Kelly does not hold or invest in derivative contracts. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk primarily due to its net investment in foreign subsidiaries. This risk is mitigated by the use of the Company’s multi-currency line of credit. This credit facility is used to borrow in local currencies which mitigates the exchange rate risk resulting from foreign currency-denominated net investments fluctuating in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Thecurrent year tax rate rose primarilyobligation to employees increases and decreases based on movements in the equity and debt markets. The investments in publicly traded mutual funds, as part of the company-owned variable universal life insurance policies, are designed to mitigate this risk with offsetting gains and losses.15
Overall, the Company’s holdings and positions in market risk-sensitive instruments do not subject the Company to material risk.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In this process, it is necessary for management to make certain assumptions and related estimates affecting the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the attached notes. Actual results can differ from assumed and estimated amounts.
Critical accounting policies are those that management believes require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the
reductionneed to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies may result intax exempt interestmaterially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. The Company considers the following policies to be most critical in understanding the judgments involved in preparing its consolidated financial statements.Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Receivable
We make ongoing estimates relating to the collectibility of our accounts receivable and maintain an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. In determining the amount of the allowance, we consider our historical level of credit losses and apply percentages to certain aged receivable categories. We also make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations, and we monitor current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. Historically, losses from uncollectible accounts have not exceeded our allowance. Since we cannot predict with certainty future changes in the financial stability of our customers, actual future losses from uncollectible accounts may differ from our estimates. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required. In the event we determined that a smaller or larger allowance was appropriate, we would record a credit or a charge to selling, general and administrative expense in the period in which we made such a determination. As of year-end 2002, 2001 and 2000, the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable was $12.5 million, $12.1 million and $13.6 million, respectively.
Workers’ Compensation
The Company has a combination of insurance and self-insurance contracts under which the Company effectively bears the first $500,000 of risk per single accident. The Company establishes accruals for workers’ compensation utilizing actuarial methods to estimate the undiscounted future cash payments that will be made to satisfy the claims, including an allowance for incurred-but-not-reported claims. This process includes establishing loss development factors, based on the historical claims experience of the Company and the industry, and applying those factors to current claims information to derive an estimate of the Company’s ultimate claims liability. In preparing the estimates, we also consider the nature and severity of the claims, analyses provided by third party claims administrators, as well as current legal, economic and regulatory factors.
Management evaluates the accrual, and the underlying assumptions, regularly throughout the year and makes adjustments as needed. The ultimate cost of these claims may be greater than or less than the established accrual. While management believes that the recorded amounts are adequate, there can be no assurances that changes to management’s estimates will not occur due to limitations inherent in the estimation process. In the event we determine that a smaller or larger accrual is appropriate, we would record a credit or a charge to cost of services in the period in which we made such a determination. The accrual for workers’ compensation was $73.5 million, $63.3 million and $55.3 million at year-end 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
16
Goodwill
Effective December 31, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”), which established a new method of testing goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment using a fair-value based approach. Under the new standard, goodwill is no longer amortized as was previously required. Upon adoption, amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets ceased. Amortization of goodwill would have been $2.7 million for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002.
SFAS 142 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment annually or if an event occurs or circumstances change that may reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its book value. Should circumstances change or events occur to indicate that the fair market value of the reporting unit has fallen below its book value, management must then compare the estimated fair value of goodwill to book value. If the book value exceeds the estimated fair value, an impairment loss would be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Such an impairment loss would be recognized as a non-cash charge to operating income.
We completed our impairment test as of the date of adoption, December 31, 2001 and during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 29, 2002 as required under SFAS 142 and determined that goodwill is not impaired. This test required comparison of our estimated fair value to our book value of goodwill. The estimated fair value was based on a discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions and estimates about future cash flows and discount rates are complex and often subjective. They can be affected by a variety of factors, including external factors such as industry and economic trends, and internal factors such as changes in our business strategy and our internal forecasts.
Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact our reported financial results. Different assumptions of the anticipated future benefits from these businesses could result in an impairment charge, which would decrease operating income and result in lower asset values on our balance sheet. At year-end 2002, 2001 and 2000, total goodwill amounted to $80.3 million, $73.6 million and $77.4 million, respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2002, the
absenceFinancial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” which supersedes EITF No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in1994a Restructuring).” SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred, rather than at the date of acreditcommitment to an exit or disposal plan as was required by EITF No. 94-3. This statement is effective for disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.In November 2002, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others: an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34.” FIN 45 establishes new disclosure and liability-recognition requirements for direct and indirect debt guarantees with specified characteristics. The initial measurement and recognition requirements of FIN 45 are effective prospectively for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. However, the disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual financial-statement periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions and management does not expect the full adoption of FIN 45 to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this document are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”). Forward-looking statements include statements which are predictive in nature; which depend upon or refer to future events or conditions; or which include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” or variations or negatives thereof or by similar or comparable words or phrases. In addition, any statements concerning future financial performance (including future revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible future Company actions that may be provided by management are also forward-looking statements as defined by the Act. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions about the Company; and economic and market factors in the countries in which the Company does business, among other things. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and the Company has no specific intention to update these statements.
Actual events and results may differ materially from
revaluing deferred taxesthose expressed or forecasted in forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. The principal important risk factors that could cause the1% increaseCompany’s actual performance and future events and actions to differ materially from such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, competitive market pressures including pricing, changing market and economic conditions, material changes in demand from large corporate customers, availability of temporary workers with appropriate skills required by customers, increases in wages paid to temporary workers, liabilities for client and employee actions, foreign currency fluctuations, changes in laws and regulations (including federal, state and international tax laws), theU.S. statutory corporate tax rate in 1993. Net earnings were $61.1 million in 1994, 37% aboveCompany’s ability to effectively implement and manage its information technology programs, and the1993 results of $44.6 million. The rate of return on sales was 2.6%, up from the 1993 return of 2.3%. Earnings per share were $1.61 in 1994 and $1.18 in 1993.-8- Liquidity and Capital Resources During 1995, capital expenditures were made primarily for new office equipment, expansionability of thebranch office networkCompany to successfully expand into new markets and service lines. Certain risk factors are discussed more fully under “Risk Factors” inthe U.S. and Europe, business acquisitions and new customer services, including the new "PinPoint" software training product. The foregoing capital expenditures, along with cash dividends, were financed internally with $29 million from operating activities and a reduction in short-term investments. In 1994 and 1993, net cash flows from operating activitiesPart I, Item 1 of$69 million and $46 million, respectively, were directed primarily toward purchases of equipment, dividend payments and the acquisition of businesses. The Company's working capital remained unchanged from 1994 at $316 million. The current ratio averaged 2.3 in 1995, 2.5 in 1994 and 2.9 in 1993. The current ratios have declined overthisperiod due principally to the use of current assets to finance continued business expansion including the acquistion of businesses and investment in additional computing capability in branch offices. Stockholders' equity grew 10% in 1995, following a 12% growth in 1994 and a 5% increase in 1993. The return on average stockholders' equity was 15.3% in 1995, 14.9% in 1994 and 11.8% in 1993. Stockholders' equity per share was $12.52, an increase of 10% over 1994. Dividends paid per share were $.78 in 1995, an increase of 11% over 1994. The Company's financial position continues to be strong. The Company believes that this strength, including the absence of any long-term debt, will allow it to aggressively pursue growth opportunities. Capital requirements are expected to be financed internally.filing.ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY

Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, workers’ compensation and goodwill impairment. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.Cash and Equivalents Cash and equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market. The Company considers securities with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and equivalents.
Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, principally by the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from 15 to 45 years for land improvements, buildings and building improvements, 5 years for equipment and furniture and 3 to 12 years for computer hardware and software. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the life of the lease or 5 years. The Company capitalizes external costs and internal payroll costs incurred in the development of software for internal use in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position No. 98-1. Capitalized software is included with equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements on the balance sheet. Depreciation expense was $45,300 for 2002, $41,500 for 2001 and $37,200 for 2000.

(In thousands of dollars except share and per share items)
Goodwill and Other Intangible AssetsGoodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets. Upon adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” in the first quarter of 2002, the company discontinued the amortization of goodwill. See Note 4 for the effects of adopting SFAS No. 142. During 2001 and 2000 the Company amortized goodwill on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 20 to 40 years.
Purchased intangible assets, with definite lives, other than goodwill, are valued at acquisition cost and are amortized over their respective useful lives (up to 10 years) on a straight-line basis.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangible AssetsThe Company evaluates long-lived assets and intangible assets with definite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When it is probable that undiscounted future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover an asset’s carrying amount, the asset is written down to its fair value. Assets to be disposed of by sale, if any, are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or if an event occurs or circumstances change that may reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its book value. If the fair market value of the reporting unit tested has fallen below its book value, we then compare the estimated fair value of goodwill to its book value. If the book value exceeds the estimated fair value, an impairment loss would be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The Company uses a discounted cash flow methodology to determine fair value.
Accounts Payable and Payroll and Related TaxesIncluded in accounts payable and payroll and related taxes are outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit. Such amounts totaled $11,156, $14,446 and $15,197 in accounts payable at year-end 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and $21,950, $19,895 and $22,636 in payroll and related taxes at year-end 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—an amendment of SFAS No. 123.” This statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Company continues to account for stock-based compensation using Accounting Principles Board Statement No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and has not adopted the recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148. However, the Company has adopted the disclosure provisions for the current fiscal year and has included this information in Note 11 to the Company’s financial statements.
Workers’ CompensationThe Company establishes accruals for workers’ compensation claims utilizing actuarial methods to estimate the undiscounted future cash payments that will be made to satisfy the claims. The estimates are based both on historical experience as well as current legal, economic and regulatory factors. The ultimate cost of these claims may be greater than or less than the established accrual. However, the Company believes that any such adjustments will not materially affect its consolidated financial position.
Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation.
-21-2. Short-term Investments
Short-term investments are classified as available for sale. Federal, state and local government obligations included in short-term investments represented 40% of the balance as of year-end 2000. The Company did not hold federal, state or local government obligations as of year-end 2002 and 2001. The carrying amounts of short-term investments approximate market value.

Under the new standard, goodwill is no longer amortized as was previously required. Upon adoption, amortization of goodwill and1993 wereother intangible assets ceased. Amortization of goodwill would have been $2.7 million for fiscal year 2002.SFAS 142 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment annually or if an event occurs or circumstances change that may reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its book value. Should circumstances change or events occur to indicate that the fair market value of the reporting unit has fallen below its book value, management must then compare the estimated fair value of goodwill to book value. If the book value exceeds the estimated fair value, an impairment loss would be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Such an impairment loss would be recognized as

The Company
is defending its position through the IRS appeal processhas established a valuation allowance for loss carryforwards related to certain foreign operations, which management believes may not be utilized.Provision has not been made for U.S. or additional foreign income taxes on an estimated $21,146 of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries, which are permanently reinvested. If such earnings were to be remitted, management believes that U.S. foreign tax credits would largely eliminate any such U.S. and

Under the Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Company may grant stock options (both incentive and nonqualified), stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted awards and performance awards to key employees utilizing the Company’s Class A stock. Stock options may not be granted at prices less than the fair market value on the date of grant, nor for a term exceeding 10 years. The Plan provides that the maximum number of shares available for grants is 10 percent of the outstanding Class A stock, adjusted for Plan activity over the preceding five years. Shares available for future grants at year-end 2002, 2001 and 2000 were 1,133,000, 1,269,000 and 1,283,000, respectively.

The Company applies APB No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for the Plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for incentive and nonqualified stock options. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

Since stock options generally become exercisable over several years and additional grants are likely to be made in future years, the pro forma amounts for compensation cost may not be indicative of the effects on net income and earnings per share for future years.
The fair value of each option included is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

13. Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and liabilities which arise in the ordinary course of its business. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, the outcome of individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance and it is reasonably possible that some of the foregoing matters could be decided unfavorably to the Company. Although the amount of the liability at year-end 2002 with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained, the Company believes that any resulting liability will not be material to the financial statements of the Company at year-end 2002.
The Company has no material unrecorded commitments, losses, contingencies or guarantees associated with any related parties or unconsolidated entities.
14. Segment Disclosures
The Company’s reportable segments are: (1) U.S. Commercial Staffing, (2) Professional, Technical and Staffing Alternatives (PTSA) and (3) International. U.S. Commercial Staffing includes traditional office services, along with education, call center and light industrial staffing. PTSA includes various specialty staffing services ranging from finance and engineering to information and health care, along with the businesses of staff leasing, outsourcing, consulting, recruitment and general contractor services. International includes staffing services in the countries outside the U.S. listed below. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”
During 2002, international operations were conducted in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand and the United Kingdom.
The following table presents information about the reported operating income of the Company for the fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000. Segment data presented is net of intersegment revenues.

Long-lived assets include property and equipment and intangible assets. No single foreign country’s long-lived assets were material to the consolidated long-lived assets of the Company.
Foreign revenue is based on the country in which the legal subsidiary is domiciled. No single foreign country’s revenue was material to the consolidated revenues of the Company.
15. New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” which supercedes EITF No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).” SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred, rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan as was required by EITF No. 94-3. This statement is effective for disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In November 2002, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others: an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34.” FIN 45 establishes new disclosure and liability-recognition requirements for direct and indirect debt guarantees with specified characteristics. The initial measurement and recognition requirements of FIN 45 are effective prospectively for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. However, the disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual financial-statement periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions and management does not expect the full adoption of FIN 45 to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
