ADP Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2014 Results
Revenues Rise 8%, 7% Organically, to $2.8 Billion for the Quarter; EPS Rises 10%
ROSELAND, N.J., Oct. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ADP® (Nasdaq:ADP) today announced its first quarter fiscal 2014 financial results, highlights are below.
- ADP reported revenue growth of 8%, 7% organic, to $2.8 billion for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013.
- Pretax and net earnings from continuing operations increased 7% and 9%, respectively.
- Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.68 increased 10% from $0.62 a year ago.
- ADP acquired 4.2 million shares of its stock for treasury at a cost of $303 million in the quarter.
- ADP hosted its first ever "Innovation Day" showcasing the company's latest Human Capital Management (HCM) enhancements and announced plans to expand its Innovation Lab to New York's "Silicon Alley."
- ADP was named to Forbes' list of World's Most Innovative Companies for the third consecutive year and also was named a Leader in Multi-Process Human Resources Outsourcing by Everest Group.
"ADP's business model is strong, and as a leading global Human Capital Management solutions provider, we are focused on driving product innovation and enhancing our distribution and service capabilities," said Carlos Rodriguez, president and chief executive officer, ADP. "Our focus on innovation is apparent as we continue to bring to market exciting new enhancements to our portfolio of integrated Human Capital Management solutions for both mid-sized and large employers. Most recently we introduced data-driven analytics and document management in the cloud, and enhanced ADP's Mobile Solutions App. Additionally, we launched ADP Recruiting Management, a unified next-generation platform that addresses the talent management needs of our clients by engaging social and mobile users, an important part of the recruitment landscape."
"ADP's first quarter results were solid," said Jan Siegmund, chief financial officer, ADP. "I am particularly pleased with our revenue growth of 8%. Each of our business segments performed well, driving solid revenue growth and pretax margin expansion. We reaffirm our full year fiscal 2014 financial guidance."
As anticipated, high-margin client interest revenues declined from a year ago and negatively impacted first quarter revenue growth nearly 1% due to a lower yield on the client funds portfolio, partially offset by growth in average client funds balances. This decline was the primary driver of the lower contribution from the client funds extended investment strategy, which negatively impacted growth in pretax earnings from continuing operations 5% and pretax margin 110 basis points, offsetting the strong pretax margin expansion in the business segments. Additionally, the lower contribution from the client funds extended investment strategy reduced diluted earnings per share from continuing operations $0.03, or 5% for the quarter.
Employer Services
Employer Services' revenues grew 8% for the first quarter, nearly all organic, compared to last year's first quarter. The number of employees on our clients' payrolls in the United States increased 2.6% for the quarter as measured on a same-store-sales basis for a subset of our clients' payrolls ranging from small to large businesses. Worldwide client retention remained strong and was consistent with last year's first quarter. Employer Services' pretax margin increased 150 basis points for the quarter benefiting from increased operating efficiencies and slower growth in selling expenses as compared to revenue growth.
Combined worldwide new business bookings for Employer Services and PEO Services grew 1% year-over-year following a very strong finish in last year's fourth quarter. New business bookings represent annualized recurring revenues anticipated from new orders.
PEO Services
PEO Services' revenues increased 12% for the first quarter, all organic, compared to last year's first quarter. PEO Services' pretax margin increased slightly for the quarter. Average worksite employees paid by PEO Services increased 11% for the quarter to approximately 300,000.
Dealer Services
Dealer Services' revenues grew 7% for the first quarter, all organic, compared to last year's first quarter. Dealer Services' pretax margin improved 100 basis points for the quarter benefiting from increased operating efficiencies.
Interest on Funds Held for Clients
The safety, liquidity, and diversification of our clients' funds are the foremost objectives of our investment strategy. Client funds are invested in accordance with ADP's prudent and conservative investment guidelines and the credit quality of the investment portfolio is predominantly AAA/AA.
For the first quarter, interest on funds held for clients declined $17.6 million, or 16%, from $106.8 million a year ago to $89.2 million, due to a decline of about 60 basis points in the average interest yield to 2.0%, partially offset by an increase of 8% in average client funds balances from $16.1 billion to $17.4 billion.
Fiscal 2014 Forecast
There are no changes to our prior forecasts as detailed below.
Reportable Segments Fiscal 2014 Forecast
-
Employer Services – revenue growth of about 7%; pretax margin expansion of 50 to 100 basis points
- Pays per control – up 2.0% to 3.0% - PEO Services – 10% to 12% revenue growth; slight pretax margin expansion
- Combined Employer Services and PEO Services new business bookings – 8% to 10% growth
- Dealer Services – revenue growth of about 8%; pretax margin expansion of about 100 basis points
Interest on Funds Held for Clients, Interest Income on Corporate Funds Fiscal 2014 Forecast
The interest assumptions in our forecasts are based on Fed Funds futures contracts and forward yield curves as of October 28, 2013. The Fed Funds futures contracts used in the client short and corporate cash interest income forecasts do not anticipate any changes during fiscal 2014 in the Fed Funds target rate. The three-and-a-half and five-year U.S. government agency rates based on the forward yield curves as of October 28, 2013 were used to forecast new purchase rates for the client and corporate extended, and client long portfolios, respectively.
- Interest on funds held for clients is expected to decline $40 to $50 million, or 10% to 12%, based on a decline of about 30 to 40 basis points in the expected average interest yield to 1.8% to 1.9%, partially offset by approximately 5% anticipated growth in average client funds balances.
- Interest income on corporate funds is expected to decline approximately $10 million primarily due to a decline in interest income related to the extended investment strategy, which is included in interest income on corporate funds.
- In combination, the total contribution from the client funds extended investment strategy is expected to be $50 to $60 million lower than a year ago.
Total ADP Fiscal 2014 Forecast
Revenues – approximately 7% growth
- Includes approximately 0.5 percentage point of anticipated drag for the year related to the decline in interest on client funds from a continued low interest rate environment, partially offset by the forecasted growth in average client funds balances as discussed above.
Pretax Margins – slight improvement in pretax margin from the adjusted 18.8% in fiscal 2013
- Includes an anticipated drag of 70 to 80 basis points for the year from the lower contribution from the client funds extended investment strategy as discussed above.
Effective Tax Rate – about flat with the adjusted 33.9% in fiscal 2013
Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations – 8% to 10% growth compared to the adjusted $2.89 in fiscal 2013
- The lower contribution from the client funds extended investment strategy is expected to reduce earnings per share growth $0.07 to $0.08, or 2% to 3%.
Web Site Schedules
The schedules of quarterly and full year revenue and pretax earnings by reportable segment for fiscal years 2012 and 2013, and the first quarter of fiscal 2014 are posted to the Investor Relations home page (http://www.investquest.com/iq/a/adp/index.htm) of our Web site www.ADP.com under Reportable Segments Financial Data. To align financial reporting with the manner in which the company's chief operating decision maker assesses performance and makes decisions about resources to be allocated to the reportable segments, effective July 1, 2013, the company no longer allocates a cost of capital charge to its reportable segments and no longer adjusts the operating results of its reportable segments to a constant exchange rate basis. As a result of these changes, all prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation.
An analyst conference call will be held today, Wednesday, October 30, 2013 at 8:30 a.m. EDT. A live webcast of the call will be available to the public on a listen-only basis.

| The following table reconciles the Company's results for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013 to adjusted results that exclude a non tax-deductible goodwill impairment. The Company uses certain adjusted results, among other measures, to evaluate the Company's operating performance in the absence of certain items and for planning and forecasting of future periods. The Company believes that the adjusted results provide relevant and useful information for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company's management and improves their ability to understand the Company's operating performance. Since adjusted earnings, adjusted provision for income taxes, adjusted EPS, and adjusted pre-tax margin are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, earnings, provision for income taxes, EPS, and pre-tax margin, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. | ||||||||
