"We achieved a robust result for the third quarter," said Rob Zandbergen, CEO
of USG People. "Revenue per working day grew by 5% and the EBITA margin rose to
4.6%. The profit margin is evolving towards our strategic target. Revenue growth
weakened a little during the third quarter. Expenses were reduced further in the
third quarter and were ? 4 million lower than last year. Despite the more
unpredictable economic growth we expect the recovery in our markets to persist
and will continue to focus our attention on further improving profitability and
providing the right solutions to facilitate growth at our clients as effectively
as possible."
