ACATIS Investment Dr. Hendrik Leber | “Automatic Data Processing: Automatic Data Processing is the leading provider for payroll and HR services, and it boasts impressive performance indicators. The company's strong market position is confirmed by annual sales of USD 19.5 billion, a million loyal customers and excellent retention rates of over 92%. The robust financial situation is reflected in revenue growth of 7.1% and an 11% increase in profits in the first quarter of 2025. Particularly attractive for investors: 25 years of steadily rising dividends, a balance sheet without net indebtedness and continuous investments in future-oriented technologies. BSD Analysis: ADP reported a stellar Q2 2026, surpassing both EPS and revenue expectations with an 11% rise in adjusted earnings to $2.62 per share. The company has successfully raised its consolidated revenue growth outlook to 6%, driven by record-high levels of client satisfaction and broad-based strength in its international and enterprise segments. While the stock experienced a minor 3% dip following the report due to "muted hiring" concerns, management remains optimistic, citing the accelerating adoption of its Workforce Now Next Gen and Lyric HCM platforms. ADP remains a quintessential "compounder" for any buyside portfolio, offering high-margin recurring revenue and a best-in-class moat in human capital management.” | BULL | Q4 2024 Jan 6, 2025 | View Pitch |
