Beth A. Garvey, President and
CEO, stated, "We continue to see favorable market dynamics and our
outlook for the remainder of 2019 is positive. Our revenue and
gross profit numbers were up this quarter despite challenging
weather conditions. Our teams continue to increase gross profit %
across all our business lines."
Garvey added, "Net income was impacted due to accelerated office
openings in Real Estate, share-based compensation and increased
technology spend. We believe that technology will facilitate
enhanced productivity and an improved field talent and client
partner experience."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial results of BG Staffing, Inc. are prepared in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America
("GAAP") and the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. To help the readers understand the Company's financial
performance, the Company supplements its GAAP financial results
with Adjusted EBITDA.
A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a
company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts
so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement
of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows of a
company. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial
performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an
alternative to net income, operating income, or any other
performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an
alternative to cash flow from operating activities or measure of
our liquidity. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful
performance measure and is used by us to facilitate a comparison of
our operating performance on a consistent basis from
period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding
of factors and trends affecting our business than measures under
GAAP can provide alone. In addition, the financial covenants in our
credit agreement are based on adjusted EBITDA as defined in the
credit agreement.
We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as earnings before interest expense,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash
items, and certain items that management does not consider in
assessing our on-going operating performance.
