Kelly Services (KELYA) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Kelly Services Inc. has demonstrated significant revenue growth, particularly in its Education segment, which expanded from $450 million in 2019 to an annual run-rate exceeding $1 billion in 2025, driven by the demand for K-12 substitute teacher staffing solutions. The company has also successfully increased its revenue through higher-margin outcome-based solutions, enhancing overall profitability compared to traditional temporary staffing services. Furthermore, the growth in payroll process outsourcing within its Talent Solutions segment indicates robust demand for flexible staffing options, positioning the company favorably as economic conditions improve.
Bears say
Kelly Services Inc. is experiencing significant financial challenges, highlighted by a 14% year-over-year decline in adjusted EPS for Q3/25, falling below both the company's and consensus estimates. Revenue for the Enterprise Talent Management segment, which accounts for 52% of total revenue, dropped by 13.1% year-over-year, exacerbated by disappointing overall revenue growth that failed to meet the company's own expectations of a 1% to 3% increase. Furthermore, adjusted EBITDA decreased by 37% year-over-year to $16.5 million, with a forecasted decline in adjusted EBITDA margin of 70 basis points for Q4/25, indicating ongoing operational difficulties and a negative outlook for profitability.
