Is The Market Pricing ADP Inc. Fairly?

Automatic Data Processing (NYSE: ADP), is a leading global provider of Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions.  During the recent annual earnings ADP’s net sales rose to $13.3 billion up 8% from the prior-year, with adjusted earnings per share at $4.35. This growth has been driven by the strength of their business model, increase in worldwide new business bookings, and an increase in their employer Services client revenue retention. The company has been client-centric focused and their drive to meet the evolving needs of the global HCM market through leading-edge product and unparalleled service is delivering clear and positive results, that are also contributing to an improvement in retention and a sustained acceleration in their new business bookings.  ADP’s recent acquisition of Celergo (a leading provider of global payroll management services), too, has strengthened ADP’s international payroll offerings with a strong proprietary cloud-based technology platform and will facilitate greater integration and alignment with their businesses in FY 2019 and beyond.
