(1)Adjusted diluted earnings per share is not a United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) measure. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in all periods included an adjustment for net tax windfall benefits related to employee stock-based compensation payments. In the prior year periods, adjusted diluted earnings per share included an adjustment for one-time non-recurring cost saving initiatives. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section on page 3 of this press release for a discussion of non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation to the U.S. GAAP measure of diluted earnings per share. |

(2)Percentage changes are calculated based on unrounded numbers. |
Martin Mucci, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We posted strong financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, with growth of 13% in total revenue and 21% in diluted earnings per share. Results were driven by growth in employees within our client base and continued strong sales growth and client retention.
The environment is more complicated than ever for small- and medium-sized businesses. Trends that emerged during the pandemic continue unabated, particularly the demand for human resource (“HR”) advice and the need for benefits packages that address talent needs. We continue to support our clients in a proactive manner, as we have done throughout the pandemic. We have assisted businesses in securing $6.0 billion in employee retention and paid leave tax credits to date. Most recently, we introduced an automated tool that businesses can leverage to capture and store employee vaccination status and communicate with their employees on an ongoing basis.”
Mr. Mucci continued, “Our robust set of COVID-19-related tools is only a part of the integrated technology solutions we offer through our digital platform, Paychex Flex®. We are committed to leveraging our human capital management (“HCM”) technology to assist our clients in maximizing efficiency as we continue to introduce innovative, responsive HR products to help businesses address the evolving HR landscape and streamline the employee experience from recruitment to retirement.”
Second Quarter Business Highlights
Highlights as compared to the corresponding prior year period are as follows:
Management Solutions revenue was $832.0 million, an increase of 14%, led by the following:
- Higher checks per payroll for HCM services and net gain in worksite employees for HR Solutions.
- Higher revenue per client resulting from improved price realization.
- Growth in client bases across HCM and ancillary products resulting from strong sales performance and high levels of retention, with notably strong demand for our HR Solutions offering.
- Impact of improved market conditions on asset-based revenue for retirement services.
- Increase in funding for temporary staffing clients.
Professional Employer Organization (“PEO”) and Insurance Solutions revenue was $262.4 million, an increase of 11%, driven by the following:
- Increase in the number of average worksite employees and an increase in average wages per worksite employee.
- Increase in PEO health insurance revenue.
- Higher revenue related to state unemployment insurance.
Total expenses increased 6% to $668.2 million, impacted by the following:
- Increase in compensation costs due to an increase in wage rates and fringe benefits.
- Increase in PEO direct insurance costs as a result of growth in number of PEO worksite employees and health insurance revenue.
- Investment in product development and information technology.
Operating income increased 24% to $440.3 million as a result of double-digit revenue growth and a moderate expense increase. Operating margin (operating income as a percentage of total revenue) was 39.7% compared to 36.0% for the prior year period.
Our effective income tax rate was 24.1% compared to 22.1% for the prior year period. Both periods were impacted by the recognition of net discrete tax benefits related to employee stock-based compensation payments, with a higher benefit realized in the prior year period.
Fiscal Year-To-Date Business Highlights
Highlights for the six months ended November 30, 2021 (the “six months”) as compared to the corresponding prior year period are as follows:
- Total service revenue and total revenue increased 15% and 14%, respectively, to $2.2 billion.
- Operating income increased 38% to $883.2 million. Adjusted operating income(1) increased 32% to $883.2 million.
- Diluted earnings per share increased 37% to $1.83 per share. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) increased 32% to $1.80 per share.
|
(1)Adjusted operating income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are not U.S. GAAP measures. Please refer to the “NonGAAP Financial Measures” section on page 3 of this press release for a discussion of these nonGAAP measures and a reconciliation to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures of operating income and diluted earnings per share. |
Financial Position and Liquidity
Our financial position and cash flow generation remained strong. As of November 30, 2021, we had:
- Cash, restricted cash, and total corporate investments of $1.1 billion.
- Short-term and long-term borrowings, net of debt issuance costs, of $806.4 million.
- Cash flow from operations was $555.4 million for the six months.

(1)Onetime costs and corresponding tax benefit recognized during fiscal 2021 related to the acceleration of costsaving initiatives, including the longterm strategy to reduce our geographic footprint and headcount optimization. These events are not expected to recur. |
||||
|
(2)Net tax windfall benefits related to employee stockbased compensation payments recognized in income taxes. 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 within the control of management. |
||||
|
(3)The calculation of the impact of nonGAAP adjustments on diluted earnings per share is performed on each line independently. The table may not add down by +/$0.01 due to rounding. |
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 operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures. We believe these additional measures are indicators of our core business operations’ performance period over period. Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA, are not calculated through the application of U.S. GAAP and are not required forms of disclosure by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As such, they should not be considered a substitute for the U.S. GAAP measures of operating income, net income, and diluted earnings per share, and, therefore, they should not be used in isolation but in conjunction with the U.S. GAAP measures. The use of any non-GAAP measure may produce results that vary from the U.S. GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.
Business Outlook
Our outlook for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”) incorporates current assumptions and market conditions. Changes in the macroeconomic environment could alter our guidance. With consideration of these impacts, we have updated our guidance as follows:
- Management Solutions revenue is now anticipated to grow in the range of 10% to 11%;
- PEO and Insurance Solutions revenue is now anticipated to grow in the range of 10% to 12%;
- Total revenue is now anticipated to grow in the range of 10% to 11%;
- Adjusted operating margin(1) is anticipated to increase to a range of 39% to 40%;
- Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) is anticipated to increase to approximately 44%;
- Other expense, net is now anticipated to be in the range of $15 million to $18 million; and
- Adjusted diluted earnings per share(2) is now anticipated to grow in the range of 18% to 20%.
Other aspects of our guidance for fiscal 2022 remain unchanged from what we provided previously.
|
(1) Adjusted operating margin and adjusted EBITDA margin are not U.S. GAAP measures. Adjusted operating margin is calculated as operating margin, adjusted for onetime nonrecurring items, as a percentage of total revenue. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as net income, adjusted for interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and onetime nonrecurring items, as a percentage of total revenue. We believe that the exclusion of certain onetime nonrecurring items when calculating these measures provides a better indicator of our core business operations’ performance period over period. |
||||||
|
(2) Adjusted diluted earnings per share is not a U.S. GAAP measure. Please refer to the “NonGAAP Financial Measures” section on page 3 of this press release for a discussion of this nonGAAP measure and a reconciliation to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure of diluted earnings per share. |

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
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,” “intend,” “overview,” “outlook,” “guidance,” “we look forward to,” “would equate to,” “projects,” “projections,” “projected,” “projected to be,” “anticipates,” “anticipated,” “we believe,” “believes,” “could be,” “targeting,” 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 condition 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:
- our ability to keep pace with changes in technology and to provide timely enhancements to our products and services;
- software defects, undetected errors, or development delays for our products;
- the possibility of cyberattacks, security vulnerabilities and Internet disruptions, including breaches of data security and privacy leaks, data loss and business interruptions;
- the possibility of failure of our operating facilities, computer systems, or communication systems during a catastrophic event;
- the failure of third-party service providers to perform their functions;
- the possibility that we may be subject to additional risks related to our co-employment relationship with our PEO;
- changes in health insurance and workers’ compensation insurance rates and underlying claim trends;
- risks related to acquisitions and the integration of the businesses we acquire;
- our clients’ failure to reimburse us for payments made by us on their behalf;
- the effect of changes in government regulations mandating the amount of tax withheld or the timing of remittances;
- our failure to comply with covenants in our debt agreements;
- changes in governmental regulations and policies;
- our ability to comply with U.S. and foreign laws and regulations;
- our compliance with data privacy laws and regulations;
- our failure to protect our intellectual property rights;
- potential outcomes related to pending or future litigation matters;
- the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. and global economy, and in particular on our small- and medium-sized business clients;
- volatility in the political and economic environment;
- changes in the availability of qualified people; and
- the possible effects of negative publicity on our reputation and the value of our brand.
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 as of the date of this press release, and any forward-looking statements made by us in this document speak only as of the date on which they are 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.
