Paylocity Announces First Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results

  • Q1 2023 Recurring & Other Revenue of $245.4 million, up 36% year-over-year
  • Q1 2023 Total Revenue of $253.3 million, up 39% year-over-year

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Nov. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paylocity Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: PCTY), a leading provider of cloud-based HCM and payroll software solutions, today announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, which ended September 30, 2022.

"Our strong sales momentum continued into the first quarter of fiscal 2023, with recurring and other revenue growth of 36% and total revenue growth of 39%, as our differentiated value proposition of providing the most modern software in the industry continues to resonate in the marketplace. In September we held our annual Elevate Client Conference, where we hosted a record 4,000 clients, prospects, and partners to more than 100 virtual and in-person sessions over the course of two days. The prevailing topic throughout the Conference was the notion of leveraging software to enhance culture and connect employees more efficiently across an organization. At Elevate we also highlighted several new product enhancements across our suite, including a new centralized video hub to review, edit and share content, several additional communication features in Community, and our My Insights feature, which allows clients to customize their dashboards. Each of these product enhancements are specifically focused on driving a more modern Connected HR experience at both the employee and company level,” said Steve Beauchamp, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Paylocity.

  • Recurring & other revenue was $245.4 million, an increase of 36% from the first quarter of fiscal year 2022.

Operating Income:

Net Income:

  • GAAP net income was $30.4 million or $0.54 per share in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 based on 56.7 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

Adjusted EBITDA:

  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $66.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow:

  • Cash and cash equivalents totaled $65.5 million as of the first quarter of fiscal year 2023.
  • Cash flow from operations for the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $16.4 million.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in this press release, including the accompanying tables. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Business Outlook

Based on information available as of November 3, 2022, Paylocity is issuing guidance for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2023 as indicated below.

Second Quarter 2023:

  • Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $257.0 million to $261.0 million, which represents approximately 32% growth over fiscal 2022 second quarter total revenue.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is expected to be in the range of $63.5 million to $66.5 million.

Fiscal Year 2023:

  • Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $1.122 billion to $1.127 billion, which represents approximately 32% growth over fiscal year 2022 total revenue.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is expected to be in the range of $336.0 million to $340.0 million.

We are unable to reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to its directly comparable GAAP financial measure because the information which is needed to complete a reconciliation is unavailable at this time without unreasonable effort.

Paylocity will host a conference call to discuss its first quarter fiscal year 2023 results at 4:30 p.m. Central Time today (5:30 p.m. Eastern Time).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release, including Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP total research and development and non-GAAP general and administrative and free cash flow. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense, adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises and other items as described later in this release. Adjusted gross profit is adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises and amortization of capitalized internal-use software costs and certain acquired intangibles. Non-GAAP operating income is adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises, the amortization of acquired intangibles and other items as described later in this release. Non-GAAP sales and marketing expense is adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises and other items as described later in this release. Non-GAAP general and administrative expense is adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises, the amortization of certain acquired intangibles and other items as described later in this release. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share are adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises, the amortization of acquired intangibles and other items as described later in this release, including the income tax effect on these items. Non-GAAP total research and development is adjusted for capitalized internal-use software costs and to eliminate stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock releases and option exercises and other items as described later in this release. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capitalized internal-use software costs, purchase of property and equipment and lease allowances used for tenant improvements. Please note that other companies may define their non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do. Management presents certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including analysis of the company's performance against prior periods, the preparation of operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the company's financial and operational performance. Management also intends to provide these non-GAAP financial measures as part of the company’s future earnings discussions and, therefore, the inclusion of the non-GAAP financial measures should provide consistency in the company’s financial reporting. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures provided in this release.
