ADP REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2007 RESULTS;
RAISES FULL-YEAR REVENUE GROWTH FORECAST;
CONFIDENT IN ATTAINING HIGH END OF FULL-YEAR EPS FORECAST
 
Third Quarter Revenues Increase 14%; EPS from Continuing Operations Rises 20%

 
ROSELAND , New Jersey - May 1, 2007 - Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (NYSE:ADP) reported 14% revenue growth, to $2.2 billion, and $0.65 earnings per share from continuing operations for the third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007, Gary C. Butler, president and chief executive officer, announced today. Pretax and net earnings from continuing operations grew 15% and 16%, respectively, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 20%, from $0.54 a year ago on fewer shares outstanding. ADP has acquired 20.1 million shares for treasury for approximately $945 million during this fiscal year. Cash and marketable securities balances were $2.8 billion at March 31, 2007 including the cash dividend of $690 million received in connection with the Brokerage Services Group (BSG) business tax-free spin-off on March 30. The cash balance includes $73 million (U.S.) that was repatriated from BSG’s Canadian operations.
 
Discontinued Operations
 
On March 30, 2007, ADP completed the tax-free spin-off of its BSG business, which was comprised of the Brokerage Services and Securities Clearing and Outsourcing Services (SCOS) segments. The results of operations for the BSG business and related separation costs are reported within discontinued operations in the third quarter and in prior periods.
 
In the third quarter ended March 31, 2007, ADP reported a gain of $11.2 million, or $6.9 million after tax, from the January 23, 2007 sale of Sandy Corporation, a business unit within its Dealer Services segment. This amount is recorded in earnings from discontinued operations in the third quarter.
 
Current Quarter Discussion

Commenting on the results, Mr. Butler said, “We are extremely pleased with our strong results for the quarter. We have excellent momentum in our businesses and our key business metrics continue to be strong. In addition, in March we completed the acquisition of Intuit’s fully outsourced payroll business which we anticipate will contribute approximately $12 million in revenues in the current fiscal year. The Employer Services’ acquisitions completed in fiscal 2007 year-to-date contributed 1% of revenue growth in the third quarter.”

Employer Services

“Employer Services’ revenues increased 12% for the third quarter compared with last year, reflecting continued strength in the business. In the United States, revenues from our traditional payroll and payroll tax filing business grew 8%, and beyond payroll revenue growth was particularly strong at 23%. New business sales in the quarter, which reflect annualized recurring revenues anticipated from new orders, grew 13% in the United States and 12% worldwide. National Account Services, TotalSource®, Major Accounts Services and GlobalView®   continued to post strong sales results. Worldwide client retention, while just below last year’s record level, remained excellent. The number of employees on our clients' payrolls in the United States increased 3% with growth in all market segments, and Europe continued to show growth compared with a year ago. As anticipated, pretax margin declined approximately 50 basis points in the quarter as a result of a 60 basis point decline due to acquisition activity to date. The continuation in the quarter of the higher step-off level of expenses from last fiscal year were offset by margin improvement from leveraging the growth in the business. The higher step-off level of expenses relates to our investments in sales and implementation headcount and our HR BPO growth initiatives that increased toward the end of last year’s third quarter. As we anniversary that higher expense level in the fourth quarter, we continue to anticipate very strong fourth quarter pretax margin improvement, which is forecasted to drive pretax margin improvement for the full year.”
Dealer Services
“Dealer Services’ revenues increased 8% for the third quarter, and 6% internally, excluding the effect of acquisitions. Revenue growth was driven by strong sales in our North American market, as well as internationally. Dealer Services’ pretax margin improved 340 basis points due to cost synergies attained in the international business from the integration of Kerridge Computer Company Ltd (Kerridge) as well as restructuring charges in last year’s third quarter relating to the Kerridge acquisition.”

Client Funds

"Interest on client funds grew 19% over last year's third quarter, to $198 million, due to an 8.3% increase in average client funds balances and a higher average interest yield of 40 basis points.”

Fiscal 2007 Guidance

“We are highly confident that ADP will grow revenues over 13% for the year. The increase from our previous 12% to 13% revenue growth forecast is primarily due to our current estimate of the benefit from foreign exchange rates. We are equally confident that ADP will attain the high end of our earnings per share from continuing operations forecast of $1.79 to $1.83, or 20% to 23% growth, compared with $1.49 earnings per share from continuing operations in fiscal 2006.”

The fiscal 2007 estimates include:
·  
Approximately 1% increase in revenues, and a reduction to earnings per share of about $0.02, due to the impact of acquisition activity to date.

The fiscal 2007 estimates exclude:
·  
The increase in diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.04 from the net one-time items recorded in the first quarter which included the gain from the sale of a Dealer Services non-core minority investment offset by restructuring charges. The increase from the previously reported $0.03 per share for the net one-time items is due to BSG-related restructuring charges being reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations when the tax-free spin-off occurred.
 
 
·  
The separation costs related to the BSG tax-free spin-off which are reported within discontinued operations. These costs are estimated to be approximately $40 million, which is lower than our previous estimate of $45 - $55 million.

“For fiscal 2007 we continue to forecast Employer Services’ revenue growth of 12% and pretax margin improvement of 20 basis points driven by a particularly strong fourth quarter. While we anticipate a tough comparison for new business sales growth in the fourth quarter compared with last year’s particularly strong fourth quarter, we continue to anticipate double-digit new business sales growth for the year. We continue to anticipate approximately 14% revenue growth in Dealer Services with pretax margin improvement of over 100 basis points. We anticipate an increase of approximately 18% in client funds’ interest revenues based on expected growth of approximately 8% in average client funds balances and a 40 basis point improvement in the client portfolio average interest yield to about 4.5%. Our interest assumptions are based on recent futures contracts and forward yield curves.”
 
“We are very pleased with our results for the third quarter. Our opportunities for growth are unique, and we continue to be excited about ADP’s future growth prospects,” Mr. Butler concluded.
