HireQuest Q3 2026 net income falls to $1.7M
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
HireQuest, Inc. (HQI) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $8.8 million, up 4.0% year over year; on a pro forma basis for the MRINetwork Assets Divestiture, revenue increased 11.1%. Net income was $1.7 million, versus $2.3 million a year earlier, while adjusted EBITDA was $4.5 million, which the company described as consistent with the prior-year quarter. SG&A rose 20.7% to $6.1 million and included a $1.3 million write-down of notes receivable, primarily related to repossession of a franchised location; workers’ compensation was a $434,000 expense versus a $99,000 benefit a year earlier.
For the first nine months, reported revenue was $23.4 million versus $23.5 million, while pro forma revenue increased 7.8%; net income was $5.9 million versus $4.7 million and adjusted EBITDA was $11.8 million versus $10.6 million. Cash was $1.1 million as of September 30, 2026; line-of-credit availability was approximately $40.5 million, assuming continued covenant compliance. HireQuest paid a $0.06-per-share quarterly dividend and intends quarterly payments, subject to board discretion and business results and financial position.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

GOOSE CREEK, South Carolina – November 12, 2026 – HireQuest (Nasdaq: HQI), a national franchisor of on-demand staffing and direct-hire recruiting services, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Rick Hermanns, HireQuest’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our third quarter results reflect continued momentum across our core commercial staffing brands, as improving demand delivered another quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. Our franchise model continues to demonstrate its resilience, allowing us to grow alongside our franchisees as they benefit from a strengthened labor market.
“We believe the improving demand environment we have seen throughout 2026 positions our franchisees well as we close out the year and look ahead to 2027. We have a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity, and we remain focused on disciplined capital allocation as we work to deliver consistently profitable results and enhanced value for our shareholders,” Mr. Hermanns concluded.
Third Quarter 2026 Review

Service revenue was $604,000 compared to $387,000 in the prior-year period. The third quarter of 2025 included approximately $479,000 in franchise royalties and $61,000 in MRINetwork national advertising fund fees within service revenue related to the divestiture of certain assets and liabilities associated with the permanent placement franchisee base of HQ MRI Corporation on January 1, 2026 (the "MRINetwork Assets Divestiture"). Pro forma for the MRINetwork Assets Divestiture, franchise royalties increased 7.9% in the third quarter of 2026.
Total revenue in the third quarter of 2026 was $8.8 million compared to $8.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of 4.0%. Pro forma for the MRINetwork Assets Divestiture, total revenue increased 11.1% in the third quarter of 2026.
SG&A expenses in the third quarter of 2026 were $6.1 million compared to $5.1 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 20.7%.

Important Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release includes and our directors and officers may make certain estimates and other forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, including, among others, statements with respect to future revenue, franchise sales, system-wide sales, net income and Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP Financial Measure); operating results; dividends and shareholder returns; anticipated benefits and synergies of any proposed transaction and future opportunities, including statements regarding value, profitability or growth prospects, cost synergies of any merger or acquisitions including those we have completed in 2023 and 2024; intended office openings or closings; expectations of the effect on our financial condition of claims and litigation; strategies for customer retention and growth; strategies for risk management; and all other statements that are not purely historical and that may constitute statements of future expectations. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “seek,” “believe,” “project,” “estimate,” “expect,” “strategy,” “future,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” “will,” and similar references to future periods.
While we believe these statements are accurate, forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are inherently uncertain. They are based only on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. We cannot assure you that these expectations will materialize, and our actual results may be significantly different. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in any forward-looking statements made by us include the following: the level of demand in and financial performance of the temporary staffing and permanent placement industry; the financial performance of our franchisees; our franchisees' and our customers' ability to navigate successfully the challenges posed by instability in the financial and capital markets and the overall economic environment including the impact of increases in the price of oil and gas and any potential recession; changes in customer demand; the extent to which we are successful in gaining new long-term relationships with customers or retaining existing ones, and the level of service failures that could lead customers to use competitors’ services; workers' compensation expenses that fluctuate from period to period based on the mix of classifications, the level of payroll, recent claims resolution, and cumulative experience; significant investigative or legal proceedings including, without limitation, those brought about by the existing regulatory environment or changes in the regulations governing the temporary staffing and permanent placement industry and those arising from the action or inaction of our franchisees and temporary employees; strategic actions, including acquisitions and dispositions and our success in integrating acquired businesses including, without limitation, successful integration following the acquisitions of Ready Temporary Staffing, TEC Staffing Services, MRI Network, Snelling Staffing, LINK, Recruit Media, Dental Power, Temporary Alternatives, Inc., and subsequent or smaller acquisitions; the possibility that any strategic target will not agree to consummate a transaction or that any such transaction is consummated on different terms than currently anticipated; the possibility that conditions to the completion of a proposed transaction, including the receipt of any required shareholder approvals and any required regulatory approvals, will not be met; the possibility that we may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies within an expected time frame or at all and to successfully integrate any acquired operations with ours; the possibility that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected, or that operating costs, customer loss and business disruption (including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees, customers, or suppliers) may be greater than expected following a proposed transaction or the public announcement of a proposed transaction; disruptions to our technology network including computer systems and software whether resulting from a cyber-attack or otherwise; natural events such as pandemics, severe weather, fires, floods, and earthquakes, or man-made or other disruptions of our operating systems or the economy including by war or political turmoil; and the factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Any forward-looking statement made by us in this news release is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt of new information, or otherwise, except as required by law.
Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Management uses these non-U.S. GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for U.S. GAAP basis measures nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes the presentation of non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of specified items provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results. Non-U.S. GAAP measures are not formally defined under U.S. GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by us. As a complement to U.S. GAAP financial measures, our management believes these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures assist investors in comparing the financial condition and results of operations of financial institutions due to the industry prevalence of such non-U.S. GAAP measures. See the tables below for a reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.
