ROSELAND, N.J. – April 29, 2020 – ADP (Nasdaq: ADP), a leading global technology company providing human capital management (HCM) solutions, today announced its third quarter fiscal 2020 financial results and updated its fiscal 2020 outlook.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2020 Consolidated Results
Compared to last year’s third quarter, revenues increased 6% to $4.0 billion, 6% organic constant currency. Net earnings increased 9% to $821 million, and adjusted net earnings increased 8% to $829 million. Adjusted EBIT increased 8% to $1,097 million, representing adjusted EBIT margin expansion of 60 basis points in the quarter to 27.1%. Adjusted EBIT margin performance was driven by continued execution of transformation initiatives and operating efficiencies, partially offset by the cost of a one-time global associate assistance payment related to COVID-19, as well as incremental amortization and PEO pass-through expenses. ADP’s effective tax rate and adjusted effective tax rate for the quarter was 23.8%. Diluted EPS increased 10% to $1.90, and adjusted diluted EPS increased 8% to $1.92 due to the factors discussed above as well as a net share count reduction.
“While we started the quarter with solid momentum, circumstances changed and we naturally shifted our attention to helping our associates and clients manage through the unprecedented operating environment brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Carlos Rodriguez, President and Chief Executive Officer, ADP. “We remain focused on protecting our associates while delivering continued exceptional service to our clients and their employees as they face this challenge, and we are doing everything possible to help them. This includes providing an Employer Preparedness Toolkit, hosting webinars, training thousands of ADP associates to answer critical questions, and redeploying hundreds of associates to where they are needed most. We developed headcount and payroll cost reporting capabilities to help clients obtain the data they need to apply for a forgivable Small Business Administration loan under the Paycheck Protection Program, and we have provided hundreds of thousands of these reports to clients at no cost."
He added, "ADP is deeply committed to its local communities, and has provided support through financial donations to COVID-19 relief efforts and an ADP associate relief fund, as well as contributions of medical supplies for hospital workers globally. We will also continue to leverage our expertise, technology, and resources to support the well-being of our clients and the broader economy.”
“We are unfortunately seeing substantial impact to employment metrics in our client base,” said Kathleen Winters, Chief Financial Officer, ADP. “But our business model is resilient, and as we prioritize the needs of our clients and their employees at this uncertain time, we remain committed to leading with innovation, simplifying the client experience, and driving operational excellence, while executing at a measured pace and with prudent spending.”
Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted net earnings, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted effective tax rate, and organic constant currency are all non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the accompanying financial tables at the end of this release for a discussion of why ADP believes these measures are important and for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures.

(A) We utilize a strategy by which we extend the maturities of our investment portfolio for funds held for clients and employ short-term financing arrangements to satisfy our short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations. As part of our client funds investment strategy, we use daily collection of funds from our clients to satisfy other unrelated client fund obligations, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities.
(B) While “Corporate extended interest income” and “Corporate interest expense-short-term financing,” related to our client funds investment strategy, are non-GAAP measures, management believes this information is beneficial to reviewing the financial statements of ADP. Management believes this information is beneficial as it allows the reader to understand the extended investment strategy for ADP's client funds assets, corporate investments, and short-term borrowings. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures is provided above.

| We believe that the exclusion of the identified items below helps us reflect the fundamentals of our underlying business model and analyze results against our expectations and against prior period, and to plan for future periods by focusing on our underlying operations. We believe 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 management and improves their ability to understand and assess our operating performance. The nature of these exclusions is for specific items that are not fundamental to our underlying business operations. Since these adjusted financial measures and other non-GAAP metrics are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to their corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures at other companies. | ||||||||||||||||||

| The following table reconciles our reported growth rates to the non-GAAP measure of organic revenue, which excludes the impact of acquisitions, the impact of dispositions, and the impact of foreign currency. The impact of acquisitions and dispositions is calculated by excluding the current year revenues of acquisitions until the one year anniversary of the transaction and by excluding the prior year revenues of divestitures for the one year period preceding the transaction. The impact of foreign currency is determined by calculating the current year result using foreign exchange rates consistent with the prior year. The PEO segment is not impacted by acquisitions, dispositions or foreign currency. | ||||||||||||||||||

| b) The charges within transformation initiatives are comprised of charges for our VERP, Service Alignment Initiative, Workforce Optimization and other transformation initiatives. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2019, charges include 48.2 million for non-cash pension settlement charge and special termination benefits, and 23.6 million of expenses related to the continuing health coverage related to our VERP. We also recorded severance charges totaling 33.6 million primarily relating to our Workforce Optimization initiative to reduce management layers and increase spans of controls and 56.8 million related to our other transformation initiatives. These charges were partially offset by net reversals of charges and gain on sale of assets related to our Service Alignment Initiative of (23.9 million) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019. Unlike other severance charges in prior periods which are not included as an adjustment to get to adjusted results, these specific charges relate to actions that are part of our broad-based, company-wide transformation initiative. |
