Paychex, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Results
Paychex,
Inc. ("Paychex," "we," "our," or "us") (NASDAQ:PAYX) today announced
total revenue of $866.5 million for the three months ended February 28,
2018 (the "third quarter"), an increase of 9% from $795.8 million for
the same period last year. The acquisition of HR Outsourcing Holdings,
Inc. ("HROI"), completed during August 2017, contributed approximately
3% to the total revenue growth for the third quarter. Net income and
diluted earnings per share each increased 29% to $260.4 million and
$0.72 per share, respectively, for the third quarter. Adjusted net
income increased 14% to $227.5 million and adjusted diluted earnings per
share increased 15% to $0.63 per share for the third quarter. Adjusted
net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share for the third quarter
exclude the impact of the termination of certain license agreements, the
impact of excess tax benefits related to employee stock-based
compensation payments recognized in income taxes, and certain one-time
net tax benefits recognized as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
(the "Tax Act"). See the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section starting
on page 5 of this press release for further discussion of these non-GAAP
measures.
Martin Mucci, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We
continued to experience solid growth in the third quarter across all
major human capital management ("HCM") product lines. In particular,
comprehensive human resource ("HR") outsourcing solutions, retirement
services, insurance services, and our time and attendance solutions have
performed well. Our service delivery also remained strong as we continue
to experience favorable client retention results. We benefited from the
Tax Act enacted in December 2017, the most comprehensive tax reform
legislation approved in more than two decades. The benefits of tax
reform and the products and solutions we provide to our clients continue
to strengthen and enhance our market-leading position.
At the end of the third quarter, we completed the acquisition of Lessor
Group ("Lessor"), a market-leading provider of payroll and HCM software
solutions headquartered in Denmark and serving clients in Northern
Europe. We believe the combination of Lessor's payroll and HCM software
products with our full-service business process outsourcing capabilities
will provide a complete technology-enabled services platform in the
markets they serve. We look forward to continued international market
expansion and welcome all of the Lessor employees to the Paychex family."
Payroll service revenue was $455.0 million for the third quarter, a 2%
increase compared to the same period last year. The increase was
primarily driven by growth in revenue per check, which improved as a
result of price increases, net of discounts.
Human Resource Services ("HRS") revenue was $393.4 million for the third
quarter, an increase of 17% compared to the same period last year. HRS
revenue growth was primarily driven by increases in client bases across
the following HCM services: comprehensive HR outsourcing services,
including HROI; retirement services; time and attendance; and insurance
services. Our largest HRS revenue stream is Paychex HR Services, which
includes our administrative services organization and our professional
employer organization ("PEO"). Demand for these services resulted in
strong growth in the number of client worksite employees served.
Retirement services revenue benefited from an increase in asset fee
revenue earned on the asset value of participants' funds as well as an
increase in the number of plans served. Insurance services revenue
benefited from an increase in the number of health and benefit
applicants, coupled with higher average premiums for workers'
compensation insurance services.
Interest on funds held for clients increased 37% to $18.1 million for
the third quarter, compared to the same period last year. The increase
resulted from higher average interest rates earned. The funds held for
clients average investment balances increased 1% for the third quarter
compared to the same period last year, primarily due to strong calendar
year-end bonus payments and wage inflation, partially offset by client
mix.
Average investment balances and interest rates are summarized below:

Total expenses increased 17% to $574.0 million for the third quarter
compared to the same period last year. HROI contributed approximately 5%
to total expense growth for the third quarter. Compensation-related
costs increased 7% as compared to the prior year period. Higher
compensation was driven by higher wages together with additional
investments made in employees. A one-time bonus was paid to
non-management employees during the third quarter, which contributed
approximately 2% to total expense growth for the third quarter. An
additional one-time expense was recognized following the termination of
certain license agreements, contributing approximately 7% to total
expense growth for the third quarter. Investments in technology and
continued growth of our combined PEO business also contributed to the
overall increase in total expenses.
Operating income decreased 5% to $292.5 million and adjusted operating
income increased 6% to $325.1 million, respectively, for the third
quarter compared to the same period last year. Adjusted operating income
excludes the one-time charge following the termination of certain
license agreements during the third quarter. Adjusted operating income,
as a percent of total revenue, was 37.5% for the third quarter, compared
with 38.5% for the same period last year. See the "Non-GAAP Financial
Measures" section starting on page 5 of this press release for further
discussion of this non-GAAP measure.
Our effective income tax rate was 11.7% for the third quarter compared
to 34.2% for the same period last year. The effective income tax rate
for the third quarter was significantly impacted by the Tax Act. As it
relates to the Tax Act, we recorded a one-time net tax benefit of $20.8
million for the revaluation of our net deferred tax liabilities and a
net tax benefit of $36.1 million for the change in our annual effective
income tax rate for the first six months of the current fiscal year
ending May 31, 2018 ("fiscal 2018"). These amounts impacted diluted
earnings per share by approximately $0.06 per share and $0.10 per share,
respectively, for the third quarter.
Year-To-Date Fiscal 2018 Highlights
The highlights for the nine months ended February 28, 2018 (the "nine
months") are as follows:
-
Total revenue increased 7% to $2.5 billion.
-
Payroll service revenue increased 1% to $1.4 billion.
-
HRS revenue increased 13% to $1.1 billion.
-
HROI contributed approximately 2% to total revenue growth.
-
Interest on funds held for clients increased 25% to $45.8 million.
-
Operating income increased 3% to $969.7 million and adjusted operating
income(1) increased 7% to $1.0 billion.
-
The effective income tax rate was 27.7% for the nine months, compared
to 34.1% for the same period last year. The effective income tax rate
was significantly impacted by the one-time net tax benefit recognized
for the revaluation of net deferred tax liabilities as a result of the
enactment of the Tax Act.
-
Net income increased 13% to $705.2 million and adjusted net income(1)
increased 16% to $700.8 million.
-
Diluted earnings per share increased 14% to $1.95 per share and
adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) increased 17% to
$1.94 per share.

Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted
diluted earnings per share are not U.S. GAAP measures. Please
refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section starting on the
next page of this press release for a discussion of these non-GAAP
measures and a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures
of operating income, net income, and diluted earnings per share.

Financial Position and Liquidity
Our financial position as of February 28, 2018 remained strong with cash
and total corporate investments of $826.6 million. Our primary source of
cash is generated from ongoing operations. Short-term borrowings totaled
$57.7 million as of February 28, 2018. Our positive cash flows have
historically allowed us to support our business and to pay substantial
dividends to our stockholders. It is anticipated that cash and total
corporate investments as of February 28, 2018, along with projected
operating cash flows and available short-term financing, will support
normal business operations, capital purchases, share repurchases,
dividend payments, and business acquisitions, if any, for the
foreseeable future.
Cash flows from operations were $988.9 million for the nine months, an
increase of 29% from the same period last year. Operating cash flows
were higher due to higher net income along with positive cash flow
impacts from timing related to income taxes and PEO payroll accruals and
unbilled receivables, which can fluctuate based on timing of period end
compared to payroll check dates.
Cash flows from investing activities of $24.4 million for the nine
months includes a net cash outflow for the acquisition of Lessor on
February 28, 2018.
During the nine months, we repurchased 1.6 million shares of our common
stock for a total of $94.1 million. In the respective prior year period,
we repurchased 2.9 million shares for a total of $166.2 million.

One-time tax benefits recognized in the third quarter as a

2018. The tax benefit related to the change in our annual
effective tax rate represents amounts recognized in the third
quarter to reflect the fiscal year-to-date effective tax rate.
These events are not expected to recur.
|
In addition to reporting operating income, net income, and diluted
earnings per share, which are U.S. GAAP measures, we present adjusted
operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per
share, which are non-GAAP measures. We believe adjusted operating
income, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are
appropriate additional measures, as they are indicators of our core
business operations performance period over period. Adjusted operating
income, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are
not calculated through the application of GAAP and are not a required
form of disclosure by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). As
such, they should not be considered as a substitute for the GAAP
measures of operating income, net income, and diluted earnings per
share, and therefore should not be used in isolation, but in conjunction
with the GAAP measures. The use of any non-GAAP measure may produce
results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a
similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.
Outlook
Our outlook for fiscal 2018 is based upon current market, economic, and
interest rate conditions continuing with no significant changes. Our
guidance for fiscal 2018 has been updated from what we disclosed last
quarter, now including the impact of the Tax Act and the acquisition of
Lessor, and is summarized as follows:
-
Payroll service revenue is anticipated to increase approximately 2%;
-
HRS revenue is anticipated to increase in the range of 13% to 14%;
-
Interest on funds held for clients is expected to increase in the
range of 20% to 25%;
-
Total revenue is expected to grow approximately 7%;
-
Operating income, as a percent of total revenue, is expected to be
approximately 38%;
-
Investment income, net is expected to be approximately $8.0 million;
-
The effective income tax rate is anticipated to be in the range of
28.5% to 29%;
-
Net income is expected to increase approximately 13% and adjusted net
income(1) is expected to increase approximately 15%; and
-
Diluted earnings per share is expected to increase in the range of 13%
to 14% and adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) is
expected to increase in the range of 15% to 16%.

|
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share
are not U.S. GAAP measures. Please refer to the "Non-GAAP
Financial Measures" section beginning on the previous page of this
press release for a discussion of these non-GAAP measures. The
difference between our guidance for the GAAP measures of net
income and diluted earnings per share and the related non-GAAP
measures of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per
share is the exclusion of the impact of excess tax benefits
related to employee stock-based compensation payments recognized
in income taxes, the impact of termination of certain license
agreements recognized during the third quarter, and certain
one-time net tax benefits recognized during the third quarter as a
result of the Tax Act. We have not incorporated any assumptions
regarding the discrete tax item related to stock-based
compensation payments in our fiscal 2018 projections for the
remainder of the fiscal year, as factors impacting the amount are
subject to uncertainty. The uncertainty primarily relates to
employee decisions regarding exercise of stock-based awards and
the market price of our common stock at the time.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Pursuant to the
U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Certain written and oral statements made by us may constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor
provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements can be identified by such words and phrases
as "we expect," "expected to," "estimates," "estimated," "overview,"
"current outlook," "we look forward to," "would equate to," "projects,"
"projections," "projected," "projected to be," "anticipates,"
"anticipated," "we believe," "believes," "could be," and other similar
words or phrases. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among
others, statements we make regarding operating performance, events, or
developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future,
including statements relating to our outlook, revenue growth, earnings,
earnings-per-share growth, or similar projections.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances
of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current
beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of our
business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events
and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. Because
forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to
inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are
difficult to predict, many of which are outside our control. Our actual
results and financial conditions may differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not
place undue reliance upon any of these forward-looking statements.
Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial
condition to differ materially from those indicated in the
forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:
-
general market and economic conditions including, among others,
changes in U.S. employment and wage levels, changes to new hiring
trends, legislative changes to stimulate the economy, changes in
short- and long-term interest rates, changes in the fair value and the
credit rating of securities held by us, and accessibility of financing;
-
changes in demand for our services and products, ability to develop
and market new services and products effectively, pricing changes, and
the impact of competition;
-
changes in the availability of skilled workers, in particular those
supporting our technology and product development;
-
changes in the laws regulating collection and payment of payroll
taxes, PEOs, and employee benefits, including retirement plans,
workers' compensation insurance, health insurance (including health
care reform legislation), state unemployment, and section 125 plans;
-
changes in health insurance and workers' compensation insurance rates
and underlying claims trends;
-
changes in technology that adversely affect our products and services
and impact our ability to provide timely enhancements to services and
products;
-
the possibility of cyber-attacks, security breaches, or other security
vulnerabilities that could disrupt operations or expose confidential
client data, and could also result in reduced revenues, increased
costs, liability claims, or harm to our competitive position;
-
the possibility of failure of our operating facilities, or the failure
of our computer systems, and communication systems during a
catastrophic event;
-
the possibility of third-party service providers failing to perform
their functions;
-
the possibility of a failure of internal controls or our inability to
implement business processing improvements;
-
the possibility that we may be subject to liability for violations of
employment or discrimination laws by our clients and acts or omissions
of client employees who may be deemed to be our agents, even if we do
not participate in any such acts or violations, including possible
liability related to our co-employment relationship with our PEO;
-
potential outcomes related to pending or future legal and legislative
matters;
-
the expected impacts of the Tax Act; and
-
risks related to the integration of the businesses we acquire.
Any of these factors, as well as such other factors as discussed in our
SEC filings, could cause our actual results to differ materially from
our anticipated results. The information provided in this document is
based upon the facts and circumstances known at this time, and any
forward-looking statement made by us in this document speaks only as of
the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, we undertake no
obligation to update these forward-looking statements after the date of
issuance of this press release to reflect events or circumstances after
such date, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
