Paychex (PAYX) Q4 Earnings: What To Expect

PAYX Cover Image

Payroll and human resources software provider, Paychex (NASDAQ:PAYX) will be reporting earnings tomorrow before market open. Here’s what to look for.

Paychex met analysts’ revenue expectations last quarter, reporting revenues of $1.32 billion, up 2.5% year on year. It was a satisfactory quarter for the company, with a decent beat of analysts’ EBITDA estimates.

This quarter, analysts are expecting Paychex’s revenue to grow 4.4% year on year to $1.31 billion, slowing from the 5.7% increase it recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $1.12 per share.

Paychex Total Revenue

Analysts covering the company have generally reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Paychex has missed Wall Street’s revenue estimates twice over the last two years.

With Paychex being the first among its peers to report earnings this season, we don’t have anywhere else to look to get a hint at how this quarter will unravel for finance and HR software stocks. However, there has been positive investor sentiment in the segment, with share prices up 7.6% on average over the last month. Paychex’s stock price was unchanged during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $136.07 (compared to the current share price of $139.65).

When a company has more cash than it knows what to do with, buying back its own shares can make a lot of sense–as long as the price is right. Luckily, we’ve found one, a low-priced stock that is gushing free cash flow AND buying back shares.
