Feb 13 (Reuters) - Dutch recruiter Randstad's RAND.AS
fourth-quarter core earnings met market expectations on Tuesday,
as solid margin and cash generation offset a drop in revenue.
The world's biggest staffing company's quarterly underlying
earnings before interest, taxes and amortisation (EBITA) fell
24% year-on-year to 265 million euros ($285.27 million),
matching analysts' average forecast in a company-provided poll.
($1 = 0.9289 euros)
