First-pass take

Zero AI exposure (no AI mentions; staffing placement only). Labour-intensive model scales headcount, not tech or margins—Offshore Services shows leverage (profit +73% vs. headcount +57%), but overall profit grew 10% in line with revenue, not ahead. Cyclical: demand softened H2 2022, management cautious on 2023. No valuation data. Low debt (0.7x net debt/EBITDA) is positive, but staffing is not defensive.
