Top pick, Zach’s Research Analyst gives Kforce Inc. (NYSE: KFRC) a Buy Rating

In January 2026, Zacks Equity Research spotlighted Kforce as its top “Bull of the Day” pick. 

Zacks highlighted that Kforce is cheap, with investors paying about $0.40 for each $1 of sales, while the company supports returns through a $100 million share buyback authorization (increased in October) and an annual dividend of $1.56, with a yield of roughly 5%. 

The report emphasized that the staffing industry has been in “tough times” and is currently positioned within the lowest 5% of Zacks-ranked industries but characterized Kforce as a potential turnaround candidate for investors seeking exposure to an eventual recovery.
