“I am particularly pleased with our first quarter financial results which exceeded guidance and occurred during what proved to be a tumultuous first quarter economic environment,” said Burton M. Goldfield, TriNet’s President and CEO. “With our singular focus on putting our customers at the center of everything we do, we grew new sales and kept more of our customers longer. We controlled our costs while we launched our new brand identity which highlights the unique value we offer SMBs. We remained disciplined in our financial management and delivered strong earnings for our shareholders.”

Mr. Goldfield continued, “We often speak of how we use scale in service of our customers. The regional bank crisis in the first quarter was an extreme example of just that. Ultimately, none of our impacted customers missed a payroll. In business, you can count on the unexpected happening, and for our customers, they can count on TriNet to support them through challenging times.”
