Business Wire
TrueBlue Inc. (NYSE: TBI), a leading provider of specialized
workforce solutions, today announced the off-market acquisition of
high-growth Healthcare Staffing Professionals, Inc. (HSP), a
long-term temporary and permanent staffing solutions provider
primarily focused on healthcare positions including nursing, allied
health, behavioral health, and various research, IT and
administrative roles. With operations across the country, including
California, Texas, North Carolina, Michigan and Pennsylvania, HSP
specializes in serving state and local government entities with a
focus on public health departments and agencies, correctional
institutions, and education systems.
“Today marks a key milestone in advancing TrueBlue’s strategic
priority to expand in high-growth end markets,” said Taryn Owen,
President and CEO of TrueBlue. “With an aging population, the
secular growth market of healthcare offers attractive long-term
opportunities. HSP’s healthcare staffing expertise and fast-growing
roster of long-term clients combined with our expansive footprint,
technology and recruitment agility will allow us to realize
significant expansion and revenue opportunities in the market while
also diversifying our business. We are excited to welcome HSP to
the TrueBlue team and look forward to working together to
accelerate growth, enhance value and make an even greater impact in
the communities we serve as we advance our mission to connect
people and work.”
“We’re thrilled to join forces with TrueBlue to greatly expand
our opportunities and build on the rapid growth we’ve experienced,”
said Maxie Juzang, CEO and President of HSP. “Our entire team is
energized to bring our current and future clients in the
high-demand and under-penetrated healthcare staffing market into
TrueBlue’s impressive portfolio while scaling our own recruitment
efforts. The combination of TrueBlue’s expansive sales network and
recruitment sophistication along with a strong cultural fit with
HSP, will allow us to propel our growth while creating potential
revenue synergies.”
“This accretive and synergistic acquisition enhances TrueBlue’s
growth profile,” said Carl Schweihs, TrueBlue’s Chief Financial
Officer. “Leveraging our strong balance sheet, we were able to take
on a modest amount of debt with favorable terms to capitalize on
this strategic opportunity at an attractive multiple. We will
continue our balanced and disciplined approach to capital
allocation, and we look forward to sharing more details on our
fourth quarter call later this month.”
HSP will join TrueBlue Inc. and continue operating under its
current brand. Transaction terms were not disclosed.
