Regional Highlights
Americas
In the second quarter of 2017, Hudson Americas' gross margin increased 18 percent compared with the second quarter of 2016. RPO gross margin increased in the second quarter on continued strong demand across the client base. EBITDA was $0.3 million in the second quarter, compared with an EBITDA loss of $0.2 million a year ago. The region delivered adjusted EBITDA of $0.4 million for the second quarter, compared with an adjusted EBITDA loss of $45 thousand a year ago, driven by gross margin growth.
Asia Pacific
Hudson Asia Pacific's gross margin increased 5 percent in constant currency in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the same period in 2016. Gross margin growth was led by Asia, up 12 percent, with a solid recovery in China, up 7 percent, while Hong Kong and Singapore also grew, up 30 percent and 11 percent, respectively, from a year ago. Australia/New Zealand continued to grow, up 2 percent in the quarter. EBITDA was $1.3 million in the second quarter, compared with EBITDA of $0.6 million a year ago. Asia Pacific delivered adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 million, improving from adjusted EBITDA of $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2016.
Europe
Hudson Europe's gross margin increased 6 percent in constant currency in the second quarter of 2017 from the second quarter of 2016. Growth was driven by Continental Europe, up 11 percent, with growth in Belgium, France, Spain, and Poland, on strong demand in permanent recruitment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The company ended the second quarter of 2017 with $37.6 million in liquidity, composed of $14.9 million in cash and $22.7 million in availability under its credit facilities. This compares with $14.8 million in cash and $15.0 million in availability under its credit facilities at the end of the first quarter of 2017. The company generated $4.5 million in cash flow from operations during the second quarter, due to positive net income and working capital management. This compares with $4.3 million usage of cash in the second quarter of 2016. The company had $6.8 million in outstanding borrowings at the end of the second quarter of 2017, primarily in Australia.
Share Repurchase Program
During the second quarter, the company continued its share repurchase program which has an authorization of up to $10 million of the company’s common stock. The company purchased 140,839 shares for $0.2 million as part of the repurchase program during the second quarter. Since the inception of this program in the third quarter of 2015 through the end of the second quarter of 2017, the company has purchased 3,406,991 shares for $7.0 million.
Business Outlook
With respect to forward-looking non-GAAP measures, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the variability, complexity and low visibility of the non-cash and other items described below that we exclude from the non-GAAP outlook measures. The variability of these items is likely to have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.
Given current economic conditions, the company expects third quarter 2017 revenue of between $110 million and $120 million and adjusted EBITDA of between breakeven and $2.0 million at prevailing exchange rates. In the third quarter of 2016, revenue was $108.1 million and adjusted EBITDA was $0.4 million. This outlook assumes an average exchange rate of 1.30 US Dollars to the British Pound, 1.16 US Dollars to the Euro and 0.78 US Dollars to the Australian Dollar.
Conference Call/Webcast
Hudson will conduct a conference call today at 10:00 a.m. ET to discuss this announcement. Individuals wishing to listen can access the webcast on the investor information section of the company's web site at Hudson.com.

HUDSON GLOBAL, INC.
RECONCILIATION FOR CONSTANT CURRENCY
(in thousands) (unaudited)
The company operates on a global basis, with the majority of its gross margin generated outside of the United States. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect its results of operations. Constant currency information compares financial results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. The company currently defines the term “constant currency” to mean that financial data for a previously reported period are translated into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate financial data for the current period. Changes in revenue, gross margin, selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), business reorganization expenses and other non-operating income (expense), operating income (loss) and EBITDA (loss) include the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Variance analysis usually describes period-to-period variances that are calculated using constant currency as a percentage. The company’s management reviews and analyzes business results in constant currency and believes these results better represent the company’s underlying business trends. The company believes that these calculations are a useful measure, indicating the actual change in operations. There are no significant gains or losses on foreign currency transactions between subsidiaries. Therefore, changes in foreign currency exchange rates generally impact only reported earnings.
