In other recent news, ManpowerGroup has announced a semi-annual dividend of $1.54 per share, reflecting the company's financial health and commitment to returning value to its investors. However, the company reported a 2% decline in third-quarter revenue, totaling $4.5 billion, and an 8% year-over-year decrease in adjusted earnings per share, falling to $1.29. Despite these figures, Manpower's Talent Solutions revenue saw a 7% rise, primarily driven by a 9% revenue increase in Japan.

Following these developments, BMO Capital Markets, Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS), Jefferies, and Truist Securities have all adjusted their outlooks on the company. BMO Capital Markets reduced the price target on Manpower shares to $71.00, while Goldman Sachs maintained a Sell rating with a steady price target of $64.00. Jefferies lowered the company's price target from $70.00 to $65.00, and Truist Securities revised its price target from $78 to $74.

These revisions were influenced by Manpower's fourth-quarter revenue and earnings per share guidance, which fell short of both firms' and consensus estimates, revealing noticeable weakness in Northern Europe. Truist Securities anticipates Manpower to experience approximately flat EBITDA growth in 2025, with a more robust growth of around 30% in EBITDA projected for 2026, despite potential financial challenges due to a higher tax rate in France.
