Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

        On March 18, 1997, StaffMark, Inc. (the "Company") completed the
purchase of substantially all of the assets of Flexible Personnel, Inc.
("Flexible"), H.R. America, Inc. ("HR America"), and Great Lakes Search
Associates, Inc. ("Great Lakes"), each an Indiana corporation (collectively, the
"Acquired Businesses"). Flexible and Great Lakes were acquired through the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, StaffMark Acquisition Corporation Two, a
Delaware corporation. HR America was acquired through the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiary, StaffMark Acquisition Corporation Three, a Delaware corporation.
Flexible provides temporary and direct placements in the light industrial,
clerical, professional, and technical industries. Great Lakes provides
contingency and retainer search services. HR America is a Professional Employer
Organization. The Acquired Businesses are headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
        
        The assets purchased primarily consist of cash, accounts receivable,
general corporate assets, trade marks, trade names, customer contracts and
related information, and employee agreements. In addition, the Company assumed
certain liabilities of the Acquired Businesses related to the assets. The total
consideration paid for the assets was approximately $10 million, including 
$7.5 million in cash and 183,823 shares of restricted Common Stock of the
Company, plus  an additional amount based upon future earnings of the Acquired
Businesses.  The purchase price for the Acquired Businesses was determined as a
result of  direct negotiations with the Acquired Business, and the funds used
in the  acquisition were proceeds from the Company's initial public offering of
Common  Stock.

     REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



     To the Stockholders
     Flexible Personnel Group of Companies:

     We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of Flexible
     Personnel Group of Companies (the Company) as of December 31, 1996 and
     the related combined statements of income, changes in  stockholders'
     equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These combined financial
     statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
     responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial
     statements based on our audit.

     We conducted our audit  in accordance with generally accepted auditing
     standards. Those standards require that we plan and  perform the audit
     to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
     are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on
     a test  basis,  evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
     financial statements. An audit  also includes assessing the accounting
     principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
     evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
     our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above
     present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial
     position of  Flexible Personnel Group of Companies as of December 31,
     1996 and the combined results of  its operations  and its cash flows
     for the year then  ended, in conformity  with generally accepted
     accounting principles.

     As discussed in Note 1 to the combined financial statements, the
     Company changed the entities included in the combined financial
     statements during 1996.  Also, as discussed in Note 2 to the combined
     financial statements, the Company has recorded a prior period adjustment
     relating to liabilities previously not recorded.

FLEXIBLE PERSONNEL GROUP OF COMPANIES
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All dollar amounts in thousands)


      1.  COMPANY BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

          a.  COMBINATION: The combined financial statements of Flexible
              Personnel Group of Companies (the Company) contain the accounts
              of Flexible Personnel, Inc. (FPI) H.R. America, Inc. (HRA) and
              Great Lakes Search Associates, Inc. (GLSA), which are of common
              ownership. These Companies offer temporary, direct, and employee
              leasing services to customers mainly in the midwestern portion of
              the United States. The December 31, 1995 financial statement
              information was restated to reflect exclusion of National On-Site
              Personnel, Inc. (NOPS), which had previously been combined with
              the aforementioned entities. This entity has been excluded as the
              nature of its business focus differs from that of the Companies
              included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions
              have been eliminated in the combination.

          b.  DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION: Depreciation of equipment and
              amortization of leasehold improvements are determined principally
              on accelerated methods used for income tax reporting purposes.
              The amount of depreciation and amortization under these methods
              is not significantly different than that based on the estimated
              economic useful lives for financial reporting purposes. Costs and
              related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
              for assets retired or disposed of and a gain or loss on
              disposition is recorded when realized.

          c.  CASH FLOWS: Cash paid for interest approximated $130 for 1996.

          d.  ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in
              conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
              management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
              reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
              contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
              statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
              during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
              those estimates.


      2.  PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENT: 
          
          During 1996 the Company was notified of and recorded a $797
          liability for workers compensation claims related to a plan that
          the Company previously participated in. The Company withdrew from
          the plan in 1995, and the liability represents prior and future
          claims relating to injuries incurred prior to terminating the
          Company's participation in the plan.
          
          
      3.  INCOME TAXES:
          
          No provision is made for federal or state income taxes in as much
          as the Company's stockholders have consented to have the
          Companies' income taxed directly to them as provided by Section
          1362(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

         4.   NOTES PAYABLE:

              During 1996, the Company maintained a line of credit with a
              commercial bank which aggregated $4,600. The agreement, which
              expires May 31, 1997, requires quarterly interest payments
              charged at 2.25% above the 30, 60, or 90 day LIBOR for comparable
              30, 60, or 90 day periods (effective rate of 7.75%). The total
              amount borrowed against the agreement was $1,245. The Company was
              contingently liable for $444 at December 31, 1996, which was
              borrowed by NOPS. The additional amount available at December 31,
              1996 was $2,750. The agreement also provides for an additional
              $605 letter of credit. 

              The agreement is collateralized by substantially all the trade
              accounts receivable of FPI and NOPS, which approximated $4,514 at
              December 31, 1996. The agreement also contains certain
              restrictive covenants common to such agreements related to the    
              Company's operations, including the maintenance of working
              capital, net worth, limitations on capital expenditures,
              limitations on stockholder distributions and incurrence of
              additional indebtedness. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the
              Company received a waiver for loan covenant violations that
              occurred during the year ended December 31, 1996.

              During 1996, a key employee and minority shareholder's employment
              was terminated with the Company. Under the terms of the
              termination agreement, the Company agreed to buy back the
              employee's shares of stock and forgive approximately $63 of
              shareholder advances that the minority shareholder owed to the
              Company. The former shareholder also signed a non-compete
              agreement in the amount of $157 that will be paid out over the
              term of the agreement (four years). In total, based on the terms
              of the termination agreement, including the items discussed
              above, the Company is required to pay approximately $293 in
              monthly installments of approximately $7 for a period of four
              years.

              Notes payable at December 31 consisted of the following:

                          STAFFMARK, INC. - FORM 8-K/A
             1996 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION

       StaffMark, Inc. (the "Company" or "StaffMark") was founded in March 1996
to create a leading provider of diversified staffing services to businesses,
healthcare providers, professional and service organizations and governmental
agencies, primarily in growth markets in the southeastern and southwestern
United States. On October 2, 1996, StaffMark and six staffing service
businesses, Brewer Personnel Services, Inc. ("Brewer"), Prostaff Personnel,
Inc. and its related entities ("Prostaff"), Maxwell Staffing, Inc. and its
related entities ("Maxwell"), HRA, Inc.  ("HRA"), First Choice Staffing, Inc.
("First Choice") and Blethen Temporaries, Inc. and its related entities
("Blethen"), (each a "Founding Company" and collectively, the "Founding
Companies"), merged through a series of separate transactions (the "Merger")
simultaneously with the closing of the Company's initial public offering (the
"Offering").

       Between March 1996 and the consummation of the Offering, the Company did
not conduct any operations and all activities prior to the Offering related to
the Merger and the Offering. Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and
Exchange Commission's ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 97 ("SAB 97"),
which was issued and became effective July 31, 1996, Brewer was designated as
the acquirer, for financial reporting purposes, of Prostaff, Maxwell, HRA,
First Choice, and Blethen (collectively, the "Other Founding Companies").
Based upon the applicable provisions of SAB 97, these acquisitions were
accounted for as combinations at historical cost.

       Effective March 1, 1997, StaffMark acquired Flexible Personnel, Inc.,
Great Lakes Search Associates, Inc., and HR America, Inc. (collectively,
"Flexible").  Located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Flexible operates a total of 40
offices throughout Indiana, Michigan and Ohio and provides clerical, light
industrial, professional/information technology, accounting services, and staff
leasing.  Flexible had 1996 revenues of approximately $49.3 million and
operates in the Commercial and Professional/Information Technology divisions.
The total consideration paid for Flexible's assets was approximately $10.0
million, including $7.5 million in cash and 183,823 restricted shares of
StaffMark Common Stock.

       In addition to the purchase price disclosed above, Flexible's
acquisition agreement includes provisions for the payment of additional
consideration contingent upon the achievement of certain performance measures
during the twelve months immediately following the acquisition.  Although the
contingent consideration could be significant to the accompanying unaudited pro
forma combined financial statements, the amounts are not currently determinable
and, accordingly, have not been reflected in the accompanying financial
statements.  The obligations for this contingent consideration, which will be
payable in a combination of cash and Common Stock, will be recorded in the
Company's financial statements when they become fixed and determinable.

         The following unaudited pro forma combined financial statements
present Brewer and StaffMark and give effect to the following pro forma
adjustments: (i) the acquisition of the Other Founding Companies at historical
cost in accordance with the applicable provisions of SAB 97; (ii) the effect of
Brewer's February 1996 acquisition of On Call Employment Services, Inc. ("On
Call"); (iii) the effect of StaffMark's March 1997 acquisition of Flexible;
(iv) the adjustment to compensation expense for the difference between the
historical compensation paid to certain previous owners of the Founding
Companies and Flexible and the employment contract compensation ("Compensation
Differential"); and (v) the incremental provision for income taxes attributable
to the income of subchapter S Corporations, net of the income tax benefits
related to the Compensation Differential.

         The pro forma financial data do not purport to represent what the
Company's financial position or results of operations would actually have been
if such transactions in fact had occurred at the beginning of 1996 or to
project the Company's financial position or results of operations for any
future period.

                                STAFFMARK, INC.

           NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME

                 FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER  31, 1996


(a)      Records the audited financial results of On Call, which was purchased
         by Brewer on February 2, 1996, for the period from January 1, 1996
         through the date of acquisition.

(b)      Records the audited financial results of Flexible, which was purchased
         by StaffMark effective March 1, 1997.

(c)      Adjustment to reflect the amortization expense relating to the
         intangible assets recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of On
         Call for the period from January 1, 1996 through the date of
         acquisition.  Intangible assets recorded in conjunction with this
         acquisition include goodwill of approximately $3.1 million which is
         being amortized over thirty years, a noncompete agreement of
         approximately $360,000 which is being amortized over five years and
         deferred financing fees of approximately $56,000 which are being
         amortized over five years.

(d)      Adjustment to reflect the amortization expense relating to the
         intangible assets recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of
         Flexible for fiscal year 1996.  Intangible assets recorded in
         conjunction with this acquisition include goodwill of approximately
         $6.1 million which is being amortized over thirty years.

(e)      Adjustment to reflect the increase in interest expense relating to
         debt incurred in conjunction with the acquisition of On Call for the
         period from January 1, 1996 through the date of acquisition.  This pro
         forma expense calculation is based on the $3.0 million borrowed by
         Brewer under a term note in conjunction with this acquisition.  Pro
         forma interest expense is computed based upon the applicable variable
         rate in effect on the term note which, based upon the terms of the
         agreement, would have approximated 9.9% during the pro forma period.

(f)      Adjusts compensation to the level the owners have agreed to receive
         from the Founding Companies and Flexible subsequent to the Merger and
         respective acquisition.

(g)      Records the incremental provision to reflect federal and state income
         taxes as if the Founding Companies, On Call and Flexible had been
         subchapter C Corporations.  This adjustment records income tax expense
         at an effective combined tax rate of 39%, adjusted for nondeductible
         goodwill amortization.

(h)      Includes: (i) 1,355,000 shares issued by StaffMark prior to the
         Offering; (ii) 5,618,249 shares issued to the stockholders of the
         Founding Companies in connection with the Merger; (iii) 1,326,459
         shares issued in connection with the Offering to pay the cash portion
         of the consideration for the Founding Companies for the period from
         January 1, 1996 through the date of the Offering; (iv) 6,325,000
         shares issued in connection with the Offering; (v) 118,763 shares
         issued in conjunction with the November 1996 acquisition of The
         Technology Source L.L.C.; and (vi) 183,823 shares issued in
         conjunction with the March 1997 acquisition of Flexible.
