Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of ManpowerGroup Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ManpowerGroup Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”)
as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss),
shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of presenting
comprehensive income in 2012 due to the adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Presentation of
Comprehensive Income. The change in presentation has been applied retrospectively to all periods presented.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on the criteria established
in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission and our report dated February 22, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting.
