ROSELAND, N.J. – July 28, 2021 – ADP (Nasdaq: ADP), a leading global technology company providing human capital management (HCM) solutions, today announced its fourth quarter and fiscal 2021 financial results and provided its fiscal 2022 outlook.
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2021 Consolidated Results
Compared to last year’s fourth quarter, revenues increased 11% to $3.7 billion and increased 9% on an organic constant currency basis. Net earnings increased 31% to $538 million, and adjusted net earnings increased 4% to $512 million. Adjusted EBIT increased 4% to $678 million, representing an adjusted EBIT margin decrease of 120 basis points in the quarter to 18.1%, as higher revenues were offset by increases in selling expenses and other incentive compensation costs, implementation costs, and continued reinvestment in the business. ADP’s effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.8% on a reported basis and 22.7% on an adjusted basis. Diluted EPS increased 31% to $1.26, and adjusted diluted EPS increased 5% to $1.20.
For the full year, revenues increased 3% to $15.0 billion, 2% organic constant currency. Net earnings increased 5% to $2.6 billion, and adjusted net earnings increased 1% to $2.6 billion. Adjusted EBIT increased 1% to $3.4 billion, and adjusted EBIT margin decreased 40 basis points to 22.6%. The adjusted EBIT margin decrease was driven by higher incentive costs and growth investments partially offset by gains from operating efficiencies and digital transformation and procurement initiatives. ADP's full year tax rate was 22.7% on both an effective basis and an adjusted basis. Diluted EPS increased 6% to $6.07, and adjusted diluted EPS increased 2% to $6.02 due to the factors discussed above and a net share count reduction.
“This past year brought unprecedented change for employers and workers around the world, but as always we remained focused on delivering exceptional value to our clients. We are proud of our results for fiscal year 2021. The dedication and resilience demonstrated by our associates resulted in sales, revenue, and earnings growth that was consistently ahead of our own expectations," said Carlos Rodriguez, President and Chief Executive Officer, ADP. "Our strong outlook for fiscal year 2022 reflects our conviction that ADP will continue to lead the market as demand for our world-class HCM solutions and expertise grows."
"Excellent execution across our business, together with our steady investments in sales, product, technology, and our digital transformation, have positioned us favorably for an improving global economy," said Kathleen Winters, Chief Financial Officer, ADP. "Our new guidance anticipates solid revenue and bookings growth and improved profitability supported by growth in pays-per-control, further gains in sales productivity, and a continued disciplined approach to expenses."
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.

In addition to our GAAP results, we use the adjusted results and other non-GAAP metrics set forth in the table below to evaluate our operating performance in the absence of certain items and for planning and forecasting of future periods: |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Adjusted Financial Measure | U.S. GAAP Measures |
Adjusted EBIT | Net earnings |
Adjusted provision for income taxes | Provision for income taxes |

Corporate interest expense-short-term financing (see prior page) | Interest expense |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
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. |

(a) We include the interest income earned on investments associated with our client funds extended investment strategy and interest expense on borrowings related to our client funds extended investment strategy as we believe these amounts to be fundamental to the underlying operations of our business model. The adjustments in the table above represent the interest income and interest expense that are not related to our client funds extended investment strategy and are labeled as “All other interest expense” and “All other interest income.” | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(b) In the three months ended June 30, 2021, transformation initiatives include gain on sale of assets and net reversals related to other transformation initiatives, including severance. This is partially offset by impairment charges of operating right-of-use assets and certain related fixed assets associated with the vacating of certain leased locations (“lease asset impairment”).
In fiscal 2021,transformation initiatives include impairment charges as a result of recognizing certain owned facilities at fair value given intent to sell and accordingly classified as held for sale and lease asset impairment charges, offset by gain on sale of assets and net reversals of charges related to other transformation initiatives, including severance.
Unlike other severance charges which are not included as an adjustment to get to adjusted results, these specific charges relate to actions taken as part of our broad-based, company-wide transformation initiative. | | | | | | | | |

(e) The income tax provision/(benefit) was calculated based on the marginal rate in effect for the year ended June 30, 2021. | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(f) The Adjusted effective tax rate is calculated as our Adjusted provision for income taxes divided by the sum of our Adjusted net earnings plus our Adjusted provision for income taxes. | | | | | | | | |

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. | | | | | | | | |

a) We include the interest income earned on investments associated with our client funds extended investment strategy and interest expense on borrowings related to our client funds extended investment strategy as we believe these amounts to be fundamental to the underlying operations of our business model. These adjustments in the table above represent the interest income and interest expense that is not related to our client funds extended investment strategy and are labeled as “All other interest expense” and “All other interest income.” |
|
(b) In fiscal 2021, transformation initiatives include impairment charges as a result of recognizing certain owned facilities at fair value given intent to sell and accordingly classified as held for sale and lease asset impairment charges, offset by gain on sale of assets and net reversals of charges related to other transformation initiatives, including severance.
Unlike other severance charges which are not included as an adjustment to get to adjusted results, these specific charges relate to actions taken as part of our broad-based, company-wide transformation initiative. |
