Investor Relations

Background & overview

 

Staffline Recruitment Ltd was formed in 1986 with a base in Nottingham and supplied temporary local industry. In 2002 Staffline Recruitment Group Ltd, comprising Staffline Recruitment and Techsearch a sub-division offering skilled trades people, saw a new senior management team lead by Andrew Hogarth and Marshall Evans. The new team changed the direction form a branch lead business to an OnSite business opening the first OnSite office towards the end of 2002.

 

Within a year the OnSite business was joined by a further 17 OnSite locations and, when Staffline was admitted to the AIM in 2004 the number of OnSite businesses had almost doubled to 35.

 

On-site Partnership was acquired by the Group in 2007 to further strengthen the company’s OnSite presence and bring skills and knowledge of the call centre market.

 

At the close of 2008 Staffline had increased the OnSite business to a total of 114 locations while remaining visible on the High Street with the branch based business.

 

Strategy

 

The Group’s strategy remains largely unchanged despite, and indeed because of, the effects of the current recession. The need for our services from our target client group has never been greater as consumers demand ever greater value for money; our services enable our clients to operate more efficiently and maintain their competitiveness. We, therefore, intend to continue to grow the number of OnSites whilst also developing complementary services.

 

Trading in the first eight weeks of 2009 has been in line with management’s expectations and we are continuing to see strong demand for new OnSites, particularly in the food processing sector. The current financial year will gain the full benefit of the new OnSites opened during the second half of 2008, offset by the loss of a significant client with 4 OnSites at the end of the first quarter of 2009, and will benefit from an overall expected net increase of 2 OnSites in the first quarter. Overall, we continue to be encouraged by the levels of interest in our products and services from new clients and, whilst we expect the recession

to provide a tough economic backdrop in the markets where we operate, we remain confident that our model will allow us to operate profitably and to grow our market share.
