Illustrative Financial Scenarios — Q2 2020

All illustrative scenarios assume–

• High-single digit year-over-year revenue growth for ECS Segment (ECS accounted for 21.5 percent of total revenues in Q1 2020)

• Decline of over 50.0 percent year-over-year in permanent placement and conversion fees

• Reductions in costs of services, incentive compensation (commissions and bonuses), headcount, travel & entertainment, outside services costs,

costs for events and discretionary spending

• No one-time charges are anticipated in these scenarios

Revenue decline of 5.0 percent assumes the low point (trough) of weekly Assignment Revenue occurs in late May and improves slightly

week-to-week thereafter

Revenue decline of 10.0 percent assumes weekly Assignment Revenue declines occur through the end of the quarter

The table below is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to provide guidance as to the outcome of the Company’s

results for the second quarter. The table estimates what the Company’s financial outcomes could look like if such revenue scenarios were

to occur, and are solely for the purposes of illustrating financial effects of actions that would be taken to manage operating costs and

expenses.

Repurchases are an important component of the

capital allocation strategy.

Strong free cash flow underpins borrowing

capacity and ability to quickly de-lever. ASGN

has repaid all borrowings under its $250M

revolving credit facility and now has full

availability.

Track record of successfully integrating tuck-in and

transformative acquisitions. M&A remains a key

component of Company’s long-term growth

strategy; targeting investments in commercial and

government markets that add key services, clients

or contracts.

Disciplined Approach to Capital Allocation

15

ASGN’s free cash flow was $48.8 million at 3/31/20. The Company allocates its free cash flow among organic investments, M&A, debt

repayment and share repurchases based on what is in the best interests of employees, clients and stockholders, at any given time.

Leverage Ratio was 1.14x4 TTM EBITDA at 3/31/20, down from 3.7x TTM EBITDA at 4/2/18 (ECS acquisition date).

1 Last twelve months as of 3/31/20. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures.

2 Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) plus stock-based

compensation expense and, as applicable, acquisition, integration and strategic planning expenses, write-off of loan costs, write-off of intangible assets and

impairment charges. Excluding the cash portion effect of the CEO transition in Q2 2019, LTM Adjusted EBITDA would have been $1.8M higher and totaled $457.2M.

3 U.S. Staffing market size from Staffing Industry Analysts’ “US Staffing Industry Forecast, April 7, 2020” and independent 3rd party (Parthenon) analysis of freelance

market. Commercial IT Services from Gartner; Technavio; Comptia; SIA Parthenon-EY CIO Survey (Light Deliverable Services). Government IT Solutions from Wolf

Den Associates LLC and ASGN internal estimates.

4 The ratio of the aggregated principal amount of consolidated indebtedness secured by a Lien on asset of ASGN or any of its subsidiaries to Lender defined trailing

12-months of EBITDA (Maximum leverage allowable is 4.25 to 1.0 of borrowings outstanding under revolver).

5 Book-to-bill ratio is calculated as the sum of the change in total contract backlog during the period plus revenues for the period, divided by revenues for the period.

6 Excludes permanent placement revenues and related gross profit.

7 Adjusted SG&A Expense Margin (a non-GAAP measure) excludes non-cash expenses – depreciation & stock-based compensation – & acquisition and integration

expenses.

8 The revolving credit facility available balance is $246.1 million after adjusting for outstanding letters of credit.

9 Effective tax rate estimate does not include excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation.

10 Billable days are defined as business days (weekdays) less observable holidays (New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veteran’s Day,

12 Contract backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts and task orders as work is performed. Contract

backlog excludes awards which have been protested by competitors until the protest is resolved in our favor. Contract backlog is segregated into two categories,

funded contract backlog and negotiated unfunded contract backlog.

13 Funded contract backlog for contracts with U.S. government agencies primarily represents contracts for which funding has been formally awarded less revenues

previously recognized on these contracts, and does not include the unfunded portion of contracts where funding is incrementally awarded or authorized by the U.S.

government even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded contract backlog for contracts with non-government agencies

represents the estimated value of contracts, which may cover multiple future years, less revenues previously recognized on these contracts.

14 Negotiated unfunded contract backlog represents the estimated future revenues to be earned from negotiated contract awards for which funding has not been

awarded or authorized, and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded contract backlog does not include any estimate of future potential task orders

expected to be awarded under indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ), U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) schedules or other master agreement

contract vehicles.
