Read MoreHide Full Article
Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (ADP - Free Report) is scheduled to report first-quarter fiscal 2022 results on Oct 27, before market open.
Let’s check out how things have shaped up for this announcement.
Expectations This Time Around
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter revenues stands at $3.76 billion, indicating 8.3% growth from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
The consensus mark for Employer Services revenues is pegged at $2.54 billion, implying growth of 6.6% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. The uptick is likely to have been aided by growth in new business bookings. The consensus estimate for PEO Services revenues is pegged at $1.23 billion, indicating growth of 12.3% year over year. The upside is likely to have been aided by an increase in average worksite employees paid by PEO Services and zero-margin benefits pass-throughs.
The consensus mark for Interest on funds held for clients’ revenues is pegged at $95 million, implying a decline of 10.4% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. Decline in the company’s average interest yield on client funds might have been detrimental for segmental growth.
The consensus estimate for earnings stands at $1.49 per share, implying a year-over-year growth of 5.7%.
