Staffing 360 Solutions Executes Agreement to Acquire The Revolution Group

Acquisition Establishes Staffing 360's Entrance Into the Cyber Security Market Under the Company's New Division: Cyber 360 Solutions


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Mar 27, 2013) - Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: STAF), an emerging growth public company engaged in the provision of international staffing services in IT, financial, accounting, healthcare and banking industries, announced today that it has executed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with The Revolution Group, Ltd. and its sole shareholders: Mark Aiello, Michael Consolazio and Heather Haughey. The Revolution Group, with revenues of approximately $5 million, is a burgeoning staffing services corporation specializing in the deployment of highly trained personnel for the Cyber Security industry with a focus on Cyber Terrorism. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Staffing 360 Solutions will acquire all the issued and outstanding stock of The Revolution Group as it becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

"This agreement represents a tremendous opportunity for revenue growth in the emerging Cyber Security market," stated Allan Hartley, CEO of Staffing 360 Solutions. "As part of our new Cyber 360 Solutions division, the acquisition of The Revolution Group is a crucial step as we implement a major push in an industry that is quickly becoming a critical focus for protecting the fragile digital framework of both international corporations and governments around the world."

In 2013 the United States government declared through President Barack Obama, that the cyber threat is "one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation" and that "America's economic prosperity in the 21st century will depend on Cyber Security." Global spending on Cyber Security by governments and corporations is expected to top $86 billion by 2016, according to Gartner, Inc., an information technology research and advisory firm. In addition, there are over 500,000 attacks on corporations globally every day.

Established in 1999 to provide highly qualified personnel trained to combat this growing threat, The Revolution Group is an emerging growth staffing and consulting company operating in 14 states with competency in information technology and Cyber Security. It is one of the few Cyber Security Consulting firms in the United States solely dedicated to identifying the top 10% of Cyber Security professionals available for consulting assignments and has won numerous accolades, including Fastest Growing IT firm in the United States, and a Diversity Supplier Award.

"We are pleased to be joining the team at Staffing 360 Solutions and putting a face behind Cyber 360 Solutions," stated Mark Aiello, President and CEO of The Revolution Group. "We believe developing proper protections against the cyber threat is a necessity for our major corporations and our national security. This multi-billion dollar industry represents a tremendous opportunity for Cyber 360 as we aim to be a global market leader based on our finely tuned systems, highly qualified personnel and Cyber Security expertise."

Staffing 360 Solutions believes that a consolidation strategy is ideally suited for the highly fragmented temporary staffing industry. The company's management team has been engaged in the development of a comprehensive program to create a robust pipeline of prospective acquisitions, with the company's newly formed Cyber 360 Solutions division having a particular focus on Cyber Security.
