CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

As a matter of policy, the Company does not provide forecasts of future financial performance. The statements made in this Form 10-Q Quarterly Report which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements often contain or are prefaced by words such as “believe”, “will” and “expect.” These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. As a result of a number of factors, our actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Certain factors that might cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, general business conditions, the demand for the Company’s services, competitive market pressures, the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified personnel for regular full-time placement and contract assignments, the possibility of incurring liability for the Company’s business activities, including the activities of its contract employees and events affecting its contract employees on client premises, and the ability to attract and retain qualified corporate and branch management, as well as those risks discussed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013, and in other documents which we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) and does not intend to update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. Description of Business

General Employment Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) provides staffing services through a network of branch offices located in major metropolitan areas throughout the United States. The Company’s professional staffing services provide information technology, engineering and accounting professionals to clients on either a regular placement basis or a temporary contract basis. The Company’s agricultural staffing services provided agricultural workers for farms and groves, until July 7, 2013, when the Company ceased operations within its Agricultural Division, terminated all the division’s employees and began the process of liquidating all assets of this division. The Company’s industrial staffing business provides weekly temporary staffing for light industrial clients in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month period ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2014. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013.

Liquidity

In recent years, the Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. Management has implemented a strategy which included cost reduction efforts as well as identifying strategic acquisitions to be financed primarily through the issuance of common stock, and to improve the overall profitability and cash flows of the Company. In 2013, the Company entered into a three year revolving credit agreement with Keltic Financial Partners II, LLP (“Keltic”) to provide working capital financing.

The Company is currently in a continuing default under the terms of their line of credit agreement (See Note 6). Keltic has the ability to terminate the lending obligations under the agreement until this continuing default is cured. As of the date of this report, Keltic continues to lend the Company funds, in the normal course of business under the agreement, without an increase in the rate of interest or any other changes. Management will continue to work with Keltic to obtain the proper waivers and amendments to the agreement to ensure normal operations are not interrupted, however if management is not able to reasonably negotiate terms with Keltic, the Company could be required to obtain alternative financing. Management believes with improved future cash flow from operations and the availability under the Keltic Credit Facility, the Company will have sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Estimates and Assumptions

Management makes estimates and assumptions that can affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the amounts of reported revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Those estimates and assumptions typically involve expectations about events to occur subsequent to the balance sheet date, and it is possible that actual results could ultimately differ from the estimates. If differences were to occur in a subsequent period, the Company would recognize those differences when they became known. Significant matters requiring the use of estimates and assumptions include, but may not be limited to, deferred tax valuation allowances, accounts receivable allowances, and evaluation of impairment. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, based on information that is available at the time they are made.

Index

Revenue Recognition

Direct hire placement service revenues are recognized when applicants accept offers of employment, less a provision for estimated losses due to applicants not remaining employed for the Company’s guarantee period. Contract staffing service revenues are recognized when services are rendered.

Falloffs and refunds during the period are reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a reduction of placement service revenues. Based on management’s review of open guarantees and accounts receivables, an allowance is also recorded at the end of each period as an offset to placement service revenues. As of March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013, a provision of approximately $104,000 and $90,000 is considered necessary, respectively.

Cost of Contract Staffing Services

The cost of contract services includes the wages and the related payroll taxes and employee benefits of the Company’s employees while they work on contract assignments.

Income Taxes

We record a provision for income taxes for the anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations using the asset and liability method. Under this method, we recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as well as for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income for the years in which those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the net amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized.

Due to the private sale of shares of common stock to LEED HR during fiscal 2012 and the resulting change in control, the Company may be limited by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code as to the amount of net operating losses that may be used in future years.

We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if we believe that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Although we believe that we have adequately reserved for our uncertain tax positions, we can provide no assurance that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be materially different. We make adjustments to these reserves when facts and circumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit or the refinement of an estimate. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will affect the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made and could have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results.

Discontinued Operations

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that has either been disposed of, or that is classified as held for sale, which represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations and is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate line of business or geographical area of operations. In accordance with the rules regarding the presentation of discontinued operations, the assets, liabilities and activity of our agricultural business have been reclassified as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013, there were no cash equivalents. The Company maintains deposits in financial institutions in excess of amounts guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. We have never experienced any losses related to these balances.

Index

Accounts Receivable

The Company extends credit to its various customers based on evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and ability to pay the Company in accordance with the payment terms. An allowance for placement fall-offs is recorded, as a reduction of revenues, for estimated losses due to applicants not remaining employed for the Company’s guarantee period. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded, as a charge to bad debt expense, where collection is considered to be doubtful due to credit issues. These allowances together reflect management’s estimate of the potential losses inherent in the accounts receivable balances, based on historical loss statistics and known factors impacting its customers. The nature of the contract service business, where companies are dependent on employees for the production cycle allows for a small accounts receivable allowance. Based on management’s review of accounts receivable, an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $295,000 and $272,000 is considered necessary as of March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively. The Company charges uncollectible accounts against the allowance once the invoices are deemed unlikely to be collectible. Based on management’s review of accounts receivables related to discontinued operations, an allowance of approximately $35,000 is considered necessary as of March 31, 2014.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is calculated on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of five years for computer equipment and two to ten years for office equipment, furniture and fixtures. The Company capitalizes computer software purchased or developed for internal use and amortizes it over an estimated useful life of five years. The carrying value of property and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset group is greater than its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is written down to the estimated fair value. There was no impairment of property and equipment for the six month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. For property and equipment included in current assets of discontinued operations in the accompanying balance sheet, the Company has ceased recording depreciation expense.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired in our acquisitions. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at least annually. The Company adopted, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which allows the Company to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the entity determines that this threshold is not met, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. An impairment loss would be recognized to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows the provisions of the accounting standard which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances fair value measurement disclosure. Under these provisions, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The standard establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use on unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

The fair value of the Company’s current assets and current liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short term nature. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term liabilities represents their fair value based on level 3 inputs. The Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using level 3 inputs.

Index

Intangible Assets

Customer lists and trade names were recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and are amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from two to ten years using both accelerated and straight-line methods.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of notes payable to common stock. In periods in which a net loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered anti-dilutive and thus are excluded from the calculation. There were no common share equivalents for the three and six months ended March 31, 2014.

Advertising Expenses

The majority of the Company’s advertising expense budget is used to support the Company’s business. Most of the advertisements are in print or internet media, with expenses recorded as they are incurred. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, included in selling, general and administrative expenses was advertising expense totaling approximately $210,000 and $372,000, and approximately $177,000 and $361,000, respectively.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company records an impairment of long-lived assets used in operations, other than goodwill, when events or circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired and the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets over their remaining lives are less than the carrying amount of those items. The net carrying value of assets not recoverable is reduced to fair value, which is typically calculated using the discounted cash flow method.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation expense is recorded for the fair value of stock options issued to directors and employees. The expense is measured as the estimated fair value of the stock options on the date of grant and is recorded over the vesting periods.

Segment Data

The Company has two operating business segments a) Contract staffing services, and b) Direct hire placement services. These operating segments were determined based primarily on how the chief operating decision maker views and evaluates our operations. Operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance. Other factors, including type of business, type of employee, length of employment and revenue recognition are considered in determining these operating segments.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 to conform to the current year presentation.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, as part of the lease settlement related to the Oak Brook facility, the Company wrote off the assets that were directly related to the facility. The assets related to this facility amounted to approximately $800,000 with accumulated depreciation associated with such assets in the amount of $756,000, for a loss of $44,000.

During the year ended September 30, 2013, the Company sold vehicles with a value of approximately $225,000 and leased them back under a 30 month agreement at an interest rate of approximately 23%. As of March 31, 2014, approximately $72,000 is current and included in other current liabilities and approximately $42,000 is included in other long term liabilities. The terms are 30 months and the payments remaining totaled approximately $114,000 at March 31, 2014.

Depreciation expense for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $37,000 and $75,000, and $41,000 and $83,000, respectively.

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired from various acquisitions. Goodwill is not amortized. The Company performs a goodwill impairment test annually, by reporting unit, in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, or whenever potential impairment triggers occur. Should the two-step process be necessary, the first step of the impairment test identifies potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value including goodwill. In applying a fair-value-based test, estimates are made of the expected future cash flows to be derived from the reporting unit. Similar to the review for impairment of other long-lived assets, the resulting fair value determination is significantly impacted by estimates of future margins, capital needs, economic trends and other factors. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. There was no impairment recorded during the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

As of September 30, 2013

	$	2,707	$	823	$	-	$	1,884

Amortization expense was approximately $82,000 and $163,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2014, respectively and was approximately $80,000 and $160,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2013, respectively.

The trade names are amortized on a straight – line basis over the estimated useful life of five years. Customer relationships are amortized based on the future undiscounted cash flows over estimated remaining useful lives of three to ten years. Over the next five years, annual amortization expense for these finite life intangible assets will be approximately $320,000 in 2014, $320,000 in 2015, $320,000 in 2016, $320,000 in 2017 and $320,000 in 2018 and $200,000 thereafter.

Long-lived assets, such as purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company regularly evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment and relies on a number of factors, including operating results, business plans, economic projections, and anticipated future cash flows. The Company uses an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable.

During the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not record any impairment of intangible assets.

6. Short-term Debt

On September 27, 2013, the Company entered into agreements with Keltic Financial Partners II LP ("Keltic") that provide the Company with long term financing through a six million dollar ($6,000,000) secured revolving note (the "Note"). The Note has a term of three years and has no amortization prior to maturity. The interest rate for the Note is a fluctuating rate that, when annualized, is equal to the greatest of (A) the Prime Rate plus three and one quarter percent (6.5%), (B) the LIBOR Rate plus six and one quarter percent (6.25%), and (C) six and one half percent (6.50%), with the interest paid on a monthly basis. Loan advances pursuant to the Note are based on the accounts receivable balance and other assets. Upon execution of the Note, approximately three million fifty thousand dollars ($3,050,000) was advanced for the full repayment of the AR Credit Facility and fees from Wells Fargo related to the early termination thereof. At the time of close, there was approximately nine hundred thousand ($900,000) of availability under the new Note in excess of amounts paid to extinguish the debt and fees with Wells Fargo. The Company incurred certain cash expense and commitment fees related to obtaining the agreement of approximately $170,000, which has been paid. The Note is secured by all of the Company's property and assets, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, and whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or in which it now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interests. The Keltic facility includes certain covenants which require compliance until termination of the agreement. As of the date of this report, the Company was not in compliance with all such covenants.

The Company has several administrative covenants and the following financial covenant:

Index

The Company must maintain the following EBITDA:

(a) The Fiscal Quarter ending on December 31, 2013, to be no less than Three Hundred Seventy Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($370,000.00);

(e) For any period commencing on or after October 1, 2014, no less than such amounts as are established by Lender for such period based on the annual financial projections including such period delivered by Borrower pursuant the agreement.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the above EBITDA covenant levels, and Lender's adjustment in accordance with the preceding sentence, have been established by Lender based on Borrower's operations as conducted on the Effective Date, and that any material change to such operations, whether by Strategic Acquisition or otherwise, will necessitate an adjustment by Lender of the above EBITDA covenant levels, and that Lender will make such adjustments in Lender's permitted discretion.

The agreement includes certain covenants which require compliance until termination of the agreement. As of the date of this report, the Company was not in compliance with all such covenants, as a result, Keltic has the following remedies for the continued default:

(a) Termination of Lending Obligations . Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default Lender may, in Lender's sole discretion (i) terminate any or all Loans and correspondingly terminate its obligations to otherwise lend to or extend credit to Borrower under this Agreement, under any Note and/or any other Loan Document, without prior notice to Borrower, and/or (ii) increase the amount of interest payable on any Loan to the applicable Default Rate, and/or (iii) increase all fees payable to Borrower under this Agreement that may be increased upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and/or (iv) demand payment in full of all or any portion of the Obligations or any Note (whether or not payable on demand prior to such Event of Default), and/or (v) take all other and further actions and avail itself of any and all rights and remedies available to Lender under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, under law or in equity.

(b) Obligations Immediately Due . Notwithstanding the provisions immediately above, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, without notice, demand or other action by Lender (i) all of Borrower's Obligations to Lender shall immediately become due and payable whether or not payable on demand prior to such Event of Default, and (ii) all interest payable on the Obligations shall increase to the applicable Default Rate, and (iii) all fees payable to Borrower under this Agreement that may be increased upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall increase to their applicable amount after an Event of Default, and (iv) Lender may take all other and further actions and avail itself of any and all rights and remedies available to Lender under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, under law or in equity.

The Company continues to negotiate with Keltic for a waiver of certain covenants and the amendment of certain covenants. As of the date of this report, Keltic continues to lend the Company funds in the normal course of business under the agreement, and without an increase in the rate of interest or any other changes. Management will continue to work with Keltic to obtain the proper waivers and amendments to the agreement to ensure normal operations are not interrupted, however if management is not able to reasonably negotiate terms with Keltic, the Company could be required to obtain alternative financing.

Index

As of March 31, 2014, the outstanding borrowings, which are classified as short-term debt, were approximately $3,601,000. As of March 31, 2014, the availability under the Keltic facility was approximately $792,000.

The Company entered into a two-year, $4,500,000 account purchase agreement (“AR Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) which, provided for borrowings, on a revolving basis, of up to 85% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable less than 90 days old and bears interest at a rate equal to the three month LIBOR (minimum of 0.5%) plus 5.25% (effective rate). Under the terms and subject to the conditions in the agreement, Wells Fargo could determine which receivables are eligible receivables, could determine the amount advanced on any such receivables, and could require the Company to repay advances made on receivables and thereby repay amounts outstanding under the AR Credit Facility on demand. Wells Fargo also had the right to require the Company to repurchase receivables that remained outstanding 90 days past their invoice date. The Company continued to be responsible for the servicing and administration of the receivables purchased and carried the receivables and any outstanding borrowings on its books until the entire outstanding balance was paid off as of September 27, 2013.

Total interest expense related to the lines of credit for the three and six months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013 approximated $68,000 and $141,000, and $47,000 and $93,000, respectively.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

General Employment Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Illinois in 1962 and is the successor to employment offices doing business since 1893. The Company provides the following distinctive services: (a) professional placement services specializing in the placement of information technology, engineering, and accounting professionals for direct hire and contract staffing and (b) temporary staffing services in light industrial staffing.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013

Results of Operations

Net Revenues

Consolidated net revenues are comprised of the following:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(In thousands)	2014		2013		$ change			% change
Placement Services	$	1,776	$	2,058	$	(282	)		(14	)%
Professional Contract Services		1,664		2,307		(643	)		(28	)
Industrial Contract Services		6,194		7,056		(862	)		(13	)
Consolidated Net Revenues	$	9,634	$	11,421	$	(1,787	)		(16	)%

Consolidated net revenues decreased approximately $1,787,000 or 16% compared with the same period last year. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to the elimination of certain customers in Light Industrial, a lower number of professional service consultants and the rebuilding of the middle management of the Company, which was required after prior management had caused significant disruptions to normal operations. Management has changed certain compensation plans and begun a new campaign to increase the number of consultants by over 40% in the next three months. Management does not expect immediate increases, however does expect to have these new consultants producing within 90 days and has implemented a new National strategy for larger clients, which the Company has never had in the past. In addition, management is aggressively looking at opportunities for Light Industrial to expand outside of Ohio. Our month over month revenue continues to increase slowly as we implement our new growth strategies.

Cost of Contract Services

Cost of services includes wages and the related payroll taxes and employee benefits of the Company’s employees while they work on contract assignments. Cost of contract services for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 decreased by approximately 15% to approximately $6,713,000 compared with the prior period of approximately $7,884,000. Cost of contract services, as a percentage of contract revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 increased approximately 1% to 70% compared with the prior period of approximately 69%. The change in the gross margin is related to the decrease in Placement Services revenue and the significant increase to our Ohio workers compensation expense. The Company is in the process of increasing our billing rates in 2014 to account for the increases in workers compensation and the Affordable Care Act costs, however management believes that the overall gross margin will decrease as the Company will not be able to increase the rates and maintain the same profit margins as it has in the past.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses include the following categories:

Compensation in the operating divisions, which includes commissions earned by the Company’s employment consultants and branch managers on permanent and temporary placements. It also includes salaries, wages, unrecovered advances against commissions, payroll taxes and employee benefits associated with the management and operation of the Company’s staffing offices.

Administrative compensation, which includes salaries, wages, payroll taxes and employee benefits associated with general management and the operation of the finance, legal, human resources and information technology functions.

Recruitment advertising, which includes the cost of identifying job applicants.

Occupancy costs, which includes office rent, depreciation and amortization, and other office operating expenses.

Other selling, general and administrative expenses, which includes travel, bad debt expense, fees for outside professional services and other corporate-level expenses such as business insurance and taxes.

The Company’s largest selling, general and administrative expense is for compensation in the operating divisions. Most of the Company’s employment consultants are paid on a commission basis and receive advances against future commissions. When commissions are earned, prior advances are applied against them and the consultant is paid the net amount. At that time, the Company recognizes the full amount as commission expense, and advance expense is reduced by the amount recovered. Thus, the Company’s advance expense represents the net amount of advances paid, less amounts applied against commissions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 decreased by approximately $716,000 or 17% compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily related to the decrease in sales and management’s efforts to reduce costs and eliminate unnecessary expenses. Overall expenses are expected to stabilize during the fiscal year 2014 and slightly decrease as the Company is able to capitalize on the consolidation of the prior acquisitions.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014, increased $42,000, or 91% compared with the same period last year, primarily as a result of higher borrowings, $17,000 related to the debt default and interest expense related to the extended payments of our earn out liability.

Discontinued Operations

As a result of terminating our Agricultural Division in July of 2013, we have reclassified the operations of that division to loss from discontinued operations, in the accompanying statement of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 the Company recognized a loss of $36,000 for this division. There continues to be approximately $229,000 of accounts receivable related to this division that management believes will be collected in 2014, however, if we are unable to collect this receivable, it would result in an additional $229,000 of expense.

Taxes

There were no benefits for income taxes as a result of the pretax losses incurred during the periods because there was not sufficient assurance that future tax benefits would be realized.

Consolidated net revenues decreased approximately $3,997,000 or 17% compared with the same period last year. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to the increase in the prior year for work performed related to Hurricane Sandy. There was a significant amount of unskilled work performed in the New York and New Jersey area for cleanup of the devastated areas. A significant number of IT and engineering professionals were also needed on both a contract and permanent basis due to the devastation of the storm. In addition there were several customers eliminated in Light Industrial, a lower number of professional service consultants and the rebuilding of the middle management of the Company, which was required after prior management had caused significant disruptions to normal operations. Management has changed certain compensation plans and begun a new campaign to increase the number of consultants by over 40% in the next three months. Management does not expect immediate increases, however does expect to have these new consultants producing within 90 days and has implemented a new National strategy for larger clients, which the Company has never had in the past.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table sets forth certain consolidated statements of cash flows data (in thousands):

	For the Six Months Ended			For the Six Months Ended

Cash flows used in operating activities	$	(152	)	$	(335	)
Cash flows used in investing activities	$	(157	)	$	(180	)
Cash flows provided by financing activities	$	442		$	188

Index

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $494,000, which was an increase of approximately $133,000 from approximately $361,000 at September 30, 2013. Negative net working capital at March 31, 2014 was approximately $1,088,000, as compared to negative net working capital of approximately $781,000 for September 30, 2013. Shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2014 was approximately $2,142,000 which represented approximately 20% of total assets.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was ($152,000) and ($335,000), respectively. The fluctuation is due to timing of our accounts receivable collections and payments of accounts payable and payroll accruals.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was ($157,000) and ($180,000) respectively. The decrease was due to a higher amount of property and equipment acquired in the prior year offset by increased earn-out payment in fiscal 2014.

Net cash flow provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2014 was $442,000 compared to $188,000 in the six months ended March 31, 2013. Fluctuations in financing activities are attributable to the level of borrowings, and a sale of common stock of $431,000 in 2014.

All of the Company’s office facilities are leased. As of March 31, 2014, future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable lease commitments having initial terms in excess of one year, including closed offices, totaled approximately $1,118,000.

The Company agreed to pay Sellers additional cash consideration of between $550,000 and $650,000 depending on the length of payments and 1,100,000 shares of common stock, in full satisfaction of all amounts owed to Seller, related to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Company issued 1,100,000 shares of common stock on July 2, 2013, which was valued at approximately $330,000. The Company elected to pay the cash amount due over two years. To date, the Company paid $294,000 of the cash consideration noted above. The Company has approximately $263,000 recorded in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2014. There was approximately $46,000 of interest recorded for the six month period ended March 31, 2014.

On September 27, 2013, the Company entered into agreements with Keltic Financial Partners II LP ("Keltic") that provide the Company with long term financing through a six million dollar ($6,000,000) secured revolving note (the "Note"). The Note has a term of three years and has no amortization prior to maturity. The interest rate for the Note is a fluctuating rate that, when annualized, is equal to the greatest of (A) the Prime Rate plus three and one quarter percent (6.55%), (B) the LIBOR Rate plus six and one quarter percent (6.25%), and (C) six and one half percent (6.50%), with the interest paid on a monthly basis. Loan advances pursuant to the Note are based on the accounts receivable balance and other assets. Upon execution of the Note, approximately three million fifty thousand dollars ($3,050,000) was advanced for the full repayment of the AR Credit Facility and fees from Wells Fargo related to the early termination thereof. At the time of close, there was approximately nine hundred thousand ($900,000) of availability under the new Note in excess of amounts paid to extinguish the debt and fees with Wells Fargo. The Company incurred certain cash expense and commitment fees related to obtaining the agreement of approximately $170,000, which has been paid. The Note is secured by all of the Company's property and assets, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, and whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or in which it now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interests. The Keltic facility includes certain covenants which require compliance until termination of the agreement. As of the date of this report, the Company was not in compliance with all such covenants.

Index

The Company has several administrative covenants and the following financial covenant:

The Company must maintain the following EBITDA:

(a) The Fiscal Quarter ending on December 31, 2013, to be less than Three Hundred Seventy Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($370,000.00);

(b) The six (6) consecutive calendar month period ending on March 31, 2014, to be less than Seven Hundred Fifteen Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($715,000.00);

(c) The nine (9) consecutive calendar month period ending on June 30, 2014, to be less than One Million One Hundred Thirty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($1,130,000.00);

(d) The Fiscal Year ending on September 30, 2014, to be less than One Million Three Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($1,300,000.00); and

(a) Termination of Lending Obligations . Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Lender may, in Lender's sole discretion (i) terminate any or all Loans and correspondingly terminate its obligations to otherwise lend to or extend credit to Borrower under this Agreement, under any Note and/or any other Loan Document, without prior notice to Borrower, and/or (ii) increase the amount of interest payable on any Loan to the applicable Default Rate, and/or (iii) increase all fees payable to Borrower under this Agreement that may be increased upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and/or (iv) demand payment in full of all or any portion of the Obligations or any Note (whether or not payable on demand prior to such Event of Default), and/or (v) take all other and further actions and avail itself of any and all rights and remedies available to Lender under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, under law or in equity.

Index

The Company continues to negotiate with Keltic for a waiver of certain covenants and the amendment of certain covenants. As of the date of this report, Keltic continues to lend the Company funds in the normal course of business under the agreement without an increase in the rate of interest or any other changes. Management will continue to work with Keltic to obtain the proper waivers and amendments to the agreement to ensure normal operations are not interrupted, however if management is not able to reasonably negotiate terms with Keltic, the Company could be required to obtain alternative financing, if available.

As of March 31, 2014, the outstanding borrowings, which are classified as short-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet, were approximately $3,601,000. Total interest expense related to the lines of credit for the six months ended March 31, 2014, and March 31, 2013 approximated $141,000 and $93,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2014, the availability under the Keltic facility was approximately $792,000.

Concurrently with entering into the SPA, the Company and Aracle conducted an initial closing thereunder, in which Aracle purchased 9.5 Units for $475,000. The Company incurred certain expenses related to the SPA and the initial closing thereunder of approximately $44,000, which were paid from the proceeds of the initial closing.

The Company is currently negotiating additional funding opportunity with third party investors. It is anticipated that the funding would be an additional equity investment or convertible instrument. Such funding is anticipated to occur during the Company’s third quarter. No assurances can be made that this funding will be completed.

The Company believes that the borrowing availability under the Keltic facility will be adequate to fund our working capital needs. In recent years, the Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. Management has implemented a strategy which included cost reduction efforts as well as identifying strategic acquisitions, to be financed primarily through the issuance of common stock to improve the overall profitability and cash flows of the Company. Management believes with future cash flow from operations and the availability under the Keltic facility, the Company will have sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months.

Due to LEED HR purchasing a majority ownership during fiscal 2012 and the resulting change in control, the Company may be limited by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code as to the amount of net operating losses that may be used in future years.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2014, there were no transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements to which an unconsolidated entity was a party, under which the Company (a) had any direct or contingent obligation under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest in the unconsolidated entity, or (b) had a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On March 31, 2014, General Employment Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) and Aracle SPF I, LLC, a New York based fund (“Aracle”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) pursuant to which Aracle has the right to acquire up to 12 units (the “Units”), for $50,000 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of 250,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) of the Company and 125,000 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). The Warrants are exercisable 6 months after issuance, have a term of 4 years, and have an exercise price of $0.25 per warrant share. The SPA contains standard representations, warranties, and covenants. In addition, the SPA contains a price adjustment mechanism that requires the Company, with certain exceptions, to issue additional shares of common stock to Aracle in the event the Company, within twelve months of the initial closing under the SPA, issues certain equity securities at a price per share less than $0.20, provided, however, as long as the Company is listed on the NYSE MKT the total number of shares issuable under the foregoing adjustment provision may not exceed 19.9% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on March 30, 2014. Further, in the event the Company is delisted from NYSE MKT while Aracle owns at least 51% of the Shares issued to it under the SPA, the Company shall issue an additional 3,000,000 Shares to Aracle, and the 12 month price adjustment period shall be extended to 36 months. The Company agreed to appoint two new members to the Company’s Board of Directors within 60 days of the initial closing, which new members are subject to the prior approval of Aracle. The Company granted Aracle piggyback registration rights with respect to the Shares and the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants.
