       This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures.  TeamStaff’s
management does not suggest that investors consider such non-GAAP financial
measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures, such as
net income, cash flow data or other financial information presented in the
consolidated financial statements.  EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is
defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.  
EBITDA includes late fee income from past due accounts receivable.  EBIT is defined
as earnings before interest and taxes.  Items excluded from EBITDA and EBIT are
significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance.  The
Company believes it is useful for management and investors to review both GAAP
information and non-GAAP financial measures to have a better understanding of the
overall performance of the Company’s business trends relating to its financial
condition and results of operations. Management believes that this information
provides greater insight into our Company’s underlying operating performance that
facilitates a more meaningful comparison of its financial results in different reporting
periods.  The Company has chosen to show the six months comparison of fiscal 2007
results to highlight the progress the Company has made in its turnaround efforts.

Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measurements
