ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Paychex, Inc. (“Paychex,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) (NASDAQ:PAYX) today announced total service revenue of $760.0 million for the three months ended November 30, 2016 (the “second quarter”), an increase of 7% from $711.3 million for the same period last year. Net income increased 7% to $202.1 million and diluted earnings per share increased 8% to $0.56 per share.
Martin Mucci, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “During the second quarter, we continued to achieve growth across all of our major human capital management (“HCM”) product lines and reached a new milestone of one million client worksite employees served by our Paychex HR Services. This month also marks the one-year anniversary of our acquisition of Advance Partners. We are pleased with the contributions of this acquisition to our financial results and remain encouraged by the opportunities for growth in this business.”
Mucci added, “While the presidential election brought discussion about the future of healthcare reform, and a delay was initiated for the Department of Labor’s Overtime Rule, we continued to experience solid retention of our ACA product clients and increased growth of our time and attendance solutions. We have a long history and proven track record of educating and assisting our clients with navigating changes in the regulatory landscape, and we expect this expertise to be in demand more than ever during this time of policy changes.”
Payroll service revenue was $440.9 million for the second quarter, a 3% increase compared to the same period last year. Advance Partners contributed approximately 1% to this growth in payroll service revenue for the second quarter. The remaining increase was driven by growth in our client base and revenue per check. Revenue per check improved as a result of price increases, net of discounts.
Human Resource Services (“HRS”) revenue was $319.1 million for the second quarter, an increase of 12% compared to the same period last year. HRS revenue growth was primarily driven by increases in our client base across all major HCM services, including: comprehensive human resource outsourcing services; retirement services; time and attendance; and human resource administration. Our largest HRS revenue stream is Paychex HR Services, which includes our administrative services organization and our professional employer organization (“PEO”). Strong demand for these services resulted in double-digit growth in the number of client worksite employees served as of November 30, 2016 as compared to November 30, 2015. Retirement services revenue also benefited from an increase in asset fee revenue earned on the asset value of participants’ funds. Insurance services revenue benefited from continued growth of our full-service Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) product and health and benefit applicants, coupled with higher average premiums and an increase in clients in our workers' compensation insurance product. Advance Partners contributed approximately 2% to the growth in HRS revenue for the second quarter.
Interest on funds held for clients increased 2% to $11.4 million for the second quarter, compared to the respective period last year. The increase resulted primarily from slightly higher average interest rates earned. The funds held for clients average investment balances were down 1% for the second quarter as the impact of client base growth was offset by the impact of timing of certain remittances to taxing authorities.
Average investment balances and interest rates are summarized below:

Total expenses increased 8% to $460.3 million compared to the same period last year. Advance Partners contributed approximately one and one-half percent to this growth. The primary driver of expense growth was higher wages and related expenses resulting from increased headcount in operations. Selling expenses increased modestly. Growth in selling expenses was tempered by strong sales in the prior year quarter. Continued growth in our PEO also contributed to total expense growth.
Operating income increased 6% to $311.1 million compared to the same period last year. Operating income, as a percent of total revenue, was approximately 40% for the second quarter, comparable with the same period last year.
Our effective income tax rate was 35.2% for the second quarter compared to 36.0% for the same period last year. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was due to the recognition of insignificant discrete tax items during the second quarter.
Year-To-Date Fiscal 2017 Highlights
The highlights for the six months ended November 30, 2016 (the “six months”) are as follows:
- Total revenue increased 8% to $1.6 billion.
-
Total service revenue increased 8% to $1.5 billion.
- Payroll service revenue increased 4% to $891.8 million.
- HRS revenue increased 14% to $641.7 million.
- Advance Partners contributed approximately one and one-half percent to the growth in both total service revenue and total expenses.
- Operating income increased 7% to $634.1 million.
- The effective income tax rate was 34.1% for the six months, compared to 32.9% for the same period last year.
- Net income and diluted earnings per share each increased 5% to $419.5 million and $1.16 per share, respectively.
- Net income and diluted earnings per share were both impacted by changes in the effective income tax rate resulting from discrete tax items recognized during the respective periods.
- Adjusted net income (non-GAAP)(1) and adjusted diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP)(1) increased 7% and 8% to $405.4 million and $1.12 per share, respectively.
| (1) | Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are not United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measures. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section on the next page for a discussion of these non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share. | |
Financial Position and Liquidity
Our financial position as of November 30, 2016 remained strong with cash and total corporate investments of $725.1 million. Our primary source of cash is generated from our ongoing operations. Short-term borrowings totaled $103.1 million as of November 30, 2016. 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 November 30, 2016, along with projected operating cash flows and available short-term financing, will support our normal business operations, capital purchases, business acquisitions, share repurchases, and dividend payments for the foreseeable future.
Cash flows from operations were $413.4 million for the six months, a decrease of 2% from the same period last year. This decrease resulted mainly from fluctuations in working capital, partially offset by higher net income adjusted for non-cash items. Working capital fluctuations contributed $147.0 million of cash outflows for the six months, compared with $111.5 million of cash outflows for the same period last year.
During the six months, we repurchased 2.9 million shares of our common stock for a total of $166.2 million. In the respective prior year period, we repurchased 1.3 million shares for $62.9 million.
Outlook
Our outlook for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”) is based upon current market, economic, and interest rate conditions continuing with no significant changes. Our guidance for fiscal 2017 is summarized as follows:
- Payroll service revenue is anticipated to increase in the range of 3% to 4%;
- HRS revenue is anticipated to increase in the range of 12% to 14%;
- Total service revenue is expected to increase in the range of 7% to 8%;
- Interest on funds held for clients is expected to reflect upper-single-digit growth;
- Net income (GAAP basis) is anticipated to increase approximately 7% and adjusted net income (non-GAAP)(1) is anticipated to increase approximately 8%.
- The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2017 is expected to be approximately 35%.
| (1) | Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section that follows for a discussion of this non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure of net income for the second quarter and six months. We have not provided a reconciliation of adjusted net income to GAAP net income for the forward-looking guidance because information related to the items excluded for future periods is subject to uncertainty and is not readily available at this time without unreasonable effort. Uncertainty primarily relates to employee decisions regarding exercise of stock-based awards and the market price of the Company’s common stock at that time. | |

In addition to reporting net income and diluted earnings per share, U.S. GAAP measures, we present adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures. We believe 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 net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share both exclude the additional tax benefit or shortfall related to employee stock-based compensation recognized in income taxes. This arose from early-adoption in June 2016 of new accounting guidance, but will be a recurring item going forward. This item is subject to volatility and will vary based on employee decisions on exercising employee stock options and fluctuations in our stock price, neither of which is in the control of management. Also excluded is a net tax benefit that was recorded for income derived in prior tax years related to customer-facing software that we produced. This was an unusual event that is not expected to recur. We believe presenting net income and diluted earnings per share excluding these particular discrete tax items allows a better understanding of core business performance. 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 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.

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.

- 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, professional employer organizations, and employee benefits, including retirement plans, workers’ compensation, health insurance (including health care reform legislation), state unemployment, and section 125 plans;
- changes in health insurance and workers’ compensation 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 data, and could also result in reduced revenues, increased costs, liability claims, or harm to our competitive position;
- the possibility of the closing 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; and
- potentially unfavorable outcomes related to pending or future (possible) legal matters.
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.
