Milan, 14 May 2019 – The Board of Directors of Openjobmetis S.p.A. (Borsa Italiana: OJM), one of the leading Employment Agencies, listed on the STAR segment of the Stock Market – operated by Borsa Italiana, approved the Additional Financial information as at 31 March 2019.

The Managing Director Rosario Rasizza commented: "The first quarter of the year disclosed a drop in revenues, in any event in line with our forecasts, exclusively in temporary work volumes. This was in any event countered by positive elements such as the rise in the first margin which exceeded 13%, and further growth in revenues from recruitment and selection by more than 35% with respect to the first quarter of 2018, growth particularly significant having taking into account that back in the first quarter of 2018 they had grown by 60% compared with the previous year. These elements, positive, which are consolidating themselves quarter by quarter, together with a general economic outlook which is expected to improve in the second part of the year, encourage us to confirm the results expected for the year underway."
