Financials Breakdown Chart

Key Financial Trends

HireQuest’s Q2 2026 results show a meaningful recovery in profitability. Revenue increased to $8.1 million from $7.6 million in Q2 2025 and $6.5 million in Q1 2026. Operating income rose to $3.3 million, compared with $1.0 million a year earlier, while consolidated net income climbed to $2.7 million from $1.1 million. Diluted earnings per share improved to $0.19 from $0.08 in Q2 2025 and $0.11 in Q1 2026.

The improvement was driven primarily by lower expenses. Selling, general and administrative expense fell to $4.0 million from $5.9 million in Q2 2025, allowing the operating margin to expand to approximately 41% from 14%. HireQuest also continued returning capital to shareholders through $834,000 of dividends and a $570,000 share repurchase during the quarter.

The balance sheet strengthened sequentially, with cash increasing to $1.6 million from $1.0 million at the end of Q1 2026. Total liabilities were $24.5 million, compared with $42.2 million in Q2 2024, and shareholders’ equity reached $68.9 million. However, operating cash flow remains uneven, and the company’s asset base continues to include a substantial amount of intangible assets.

  • Profitability rebounded sharply: Q2 2026 net income increased approximately 154% year over year, while operating income more than doubled.
  • Revenue returned to growth: Revenue rose 6% year over year and 24% sequentially, reversing the decline reported in Q1 2026.
  • Expense control improved margins: SG&A declined approximately 32% year over year, helping drive the operating margin to about 41%.
  • Shareholder returns continued: HireQuest paid $834,000 in dividends and repurchased $570,000 of common stock during Q2.
  • Leverage appears more manageable: Total liabilities declined to $24.5 million from $42.2 million in Q2 2024, while total equity increased to $68.9 million.
  • Liquidity improved sequentially: Cash rose to $1.6 million from $1.0 million at the end of Q1, and current assets exceeded current liabilities by roughly 2.7 times.
  • Long-term earnings trend is mixed: Q2 2026 revenue was above Q2 2025 but remained below the $8.7 million reported in Q2 2024 and the $9.3 million reported in Q3 2023.
  • Operating cash flow weakened: Cash from operating activities fell to $1.6 million from $2.6 million in Q2 2025, despite higher reported earnings.
  • Working capital consumed cash: Changes in operating assets and liabilities reduced cash flow by $2.3 million in Q2, while accounts receivable increased to $48.9 million.
  • Asset quality remains a consideration: Intangible assets totaled $22.8 million, or roughly 24% of total assets, leaving the company exposed to potential future impairment charges.
