Manpower (NYSE:MAN) Better Positioned than Robert Half (NYSE:RHI) Says Barclays (NYSE:BCS)

Commenting on the staffing sector, Barclay (NYSE:BCS) said their top pick remains Manpower (NYSE:MAN), preferring them over Robert Half (NYSE:RHI) at this time.

Barclays said, "We expect continued fundamental improvement across the staffing space as 4Q'10 results are reported over the next few weeks, with strong momentum and a likely upside surprise at Manpower. Manpower (NYSE: MAN) remains our top pick in the Business & Professional Services space.

"We expect continued solid revenue trends across the temp staffing industry this quarter, with margins and earnings continuing their rebound off of trough levels. Over the next 2-3 years, we expect a dramatic rebound in industry earnings, which we believe would support solid share price appreciation. Manpower, which we rate Overweight, remains our top pick. We prefer MAN to Robert Half (NYSE: RHI) due to its earlier cycle mix and superior current fundamentals, broader geographic diversification, and more attractive valuation. We believe that MAN has significant upside potential over the next year, and also like it into the earnings report."

Manpower closed Monday at $66.20, gaining $1.46, or 2.26 percent. Robert Half closed at $31.98, up $0.25, or 0.79 percent.

Cintas (NASDAQ:CTAS) Margins to Remain Under Pressure

Reviewing the quarterly report of Cintas (NASDAQ:CTAS), the lower margins in the near term and little expectations of earnings growth makes them seem to be an overvalued company at this time.

Barclays (NYSE:BCS) said, "Last night, Cintas reported mixed 2Q results, with revenue nicely above estimates but weaker margins and in-line EPS. It also reiterated prior FY'11 guidance. While results are stabilizing, we expect minimal earnings growth and falling cash flows in FY'11 and find the shares overvalued at a big premium vs. the market multiple. As a result, we reiterate our rating. We prefer ManPower (NYSE:MAN) as better cyclical recovery play." (lowers FY11 EPS estimate from $1.55 to $1.53).

Barclays reiterates an "Underweight" rating on Cintas, which closed Wednesday at $28.30, down $0.90, or 3.08 percent. Barclays has a price target of $24 on them.
