disclaimer & definitions

Certain statements in this document concern prognoses about the future financial condition, risks, investment plans, productivity and the results of operations of Randstad Holding and its operating companies as well as certain trends, plans and objectives. Obviously, such prognoses involve risks and a degree of uncertainty since they concern future events and depend on circumstances that will apply then. Many factors may contribute to the actual results and developments differing from the prognoses made in this document. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, a shortage on the job market, changes in the demand for (flexible) personnel, achievement of cost savings, changes in the business mix, changes in legislation (particularly in relation to employment, staffing and tax laws), the role of industry regulators, future currency and interest fluctuations, our ability to identify relevant risks and mitigate their impact, the availability of credit on financially acceptable terms, the successful completion of company acquisitions and their subsequent integration, successful disposals of companies and the rate of technological developments. These prognoses therefore apply only on the date on which this document was compiled.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EBITA: operating profit before amortization and impairment acquisition-related intangible assets and goodwill, badwill, integration costs and one-offs.

organic growth is measured excluding the impact of currency effects, acquisitions, disposals and reclassifications.

diluted EPS is measured before amortization and impairment acquisition-related intangible assets and goodwill, badwill, integration costs and one-offs.

market dynamics creating a complex landscape

November 17, 2015 Capital Markets Day 2015 8

Specialization: Clients are more willing to pay higher fees for specialist skilled staff in short supply.

Outsourcing: Clients are more open to outsource tasks into BPO/SOW/packages

Large and Complex: Clients require more

sophisticated solutions to manage workforce

recruitment better and more cost effectively.

Low-cost disruption: Clients and small agencies have access to technology platforms that offer an

alternative to recruit differently

e.g: Adecco Manpower Randstad

Traditional agency model
