TrueBlue Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2019 Results
TACOMA, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- TrueBlue (NYSE:TBI) today announced its fourth quarter and full-year results for 2019. Full-year revenue was $2.4 billion, a decrease of 5 percent compared to 2018. Net income per diluted share was $1.61, a decrease of 1 percent compared to 2018. Adjusted net income per diluted share1 was $2.05, a decrease of 10 percent compared to 2018.
Fourth quarter revenue was $591 million, a decrease of 9 percent compared to revenue of $650 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. Net income per diluted share was $0.23, a decrease of 38 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.39, a decrease of 36 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
“Clients were conservative in the use of our services during the fourth quarter in light of softness in their own business volumes and continued economic uncertainty, particularly in industries associated with physical goods,” said Patrick Beharelle, CEO of TrueBlue. “I’m pleased with our disciplined focus on cost management and the savings it delivered this quarter. Over the near term, we expect continued challenges in the industrial markets we serve, but we are encouraged by recent improvements in the demand trend for PeopleReady services.
“When I look at TrueBlue’s digital strategy and competitive position, I am pleased by what we have accomplished. We have more clients and workers using our technology than ever before,” Mr. Beharelle continued. “PeopleReady’s JobStack app has filled more than six million shifts since its inception and is currently filling a job every nine seconds. PeopleScout’s Affinix is helping clients improve time to fill, candidate flow and candidate satisfaction. As we move into a new year and decade, I believe our digital strategies provide further opportunity to differentiate our services, capture additional market share and deliver industry-leading growth.”
2020 Outlook
TrueBlue estimates revenue for the first quarter of 2020 will range from $503 million to $528 million. The company also estimates net loss per basic share will range from $0.07 to $0.00 and adjusted net income per diluted share will range from $0.04 to $0.11.
Management will discuss fourth quarter and full-year 2019 results on a webcast at 2 p.m. PDT (5 p.m. EDT), today, Wednesday, Feb. 5, 2020. The webcast can be accessed on TrueBlue’s website: www.trueblue.com.
