Paycom.com.

Speaker 1

I will now turn the call over to Add Richardson, Paycom's President and Chief Executive Officer. Chad?

Speaker 2

Thanks, James, and thank you to everyone joining our call today. I will spend a few minutes on the highlights of our Q3 2021 results and our progress on key initiatives. Following that, Craig will review our financials and our guidance, $6,000,000 representing robust year over year revenue growth of 30.4%, which was above the top end of our guidance range. We continue to see strong demand for our products across our target market and we are having great success attracting new clients. We have reinvested and will continue to reinvest revenue upside into the business while still delivering attractive adjusted EBITDA margins.

Speaker 2

With these strong results, we are once again raising our full year guidance, which Craig will discuss in more detail. Our innovative solutions continue to gain and we are being recognized by industry organizations for their impact on the human capital management industry. In September, Paycom was once again awarded the 2021 Top HR Product Honor at the HR Technology Conference for our newest innovation, This marks the 3rd consecutive year for Paycom to receive such honors, which included the Direct Data Exchange in 2019, Manager on the Go in 2020 and now Betty in 2021. It is precisely the combination of these three industry first, coupled with our comprehensive single database that is transforming the human capital management industry and turning employee usage and easy to use solutions and the key buying criteria for clients. VetI is a self-service payroll technology that allows employees to do their own payroll And we are having great success in the market.

Speaker 2

As a reminder, with VETI, employees submit their own time work and make their own benefit selections, schedule deductions, Manage tax statuses, remit expenses, request time off and do all the things that an employee does to calculate a check. Betty does the rest and works with the employee to ensure a perfect payroll for them prior to the payroll. Employees doing their own payroll is the only way payroll should be done. I am very pleased with the market response to Betty and I continue to expect all clients to eventually deploy Betty. Our advertising and marketing efforts continue to deliver strong demo leads that are fueling our revenue growth, and we will intend continue to spend aggressively in the coming quarters to further expand our market share in the large and expanding HCM TAM.

Speaker 2

Our advertising strategy is working and we are deliberately reinvesting revenue upside into advertising, marketing and product innovation. You heard me say consistently that we are willing to trade a point of margin for a point of growth, but we are unwilling to trade a point of margin for a point of nothing. And that philosophy has served us well over the years and you can see it in our results. On the sales front, We are seeing success with both smaller and larger companies. I'm particularly pleased with the traction we are having in our recently expanded target market range of companies with up to 10,000 employees where our messaging around ease of use and the employee self-service is resonating.

Speaker 2

Finally, it's great to see all the Paycom faces back in the office even if behind masks. We have successfully transitioned nearly all employees back to our offices around the country and it is great to see we are getting our office culture back. While we accomplished Extraordinary things working remotely, I believe we're even better together. Many of our new hires are experiencing for the first time the daily buzz and enthusiasm that makes Paycom a unique place to work. While our sales teams are still selling virtually, we are already seeing the benefits of everyone being safely back in the office, sharing best practices and collaborating more closely.

Speaker 2

In summary, Q3 was a very strong quarter driven by record new client revenue. The investments we've made throughout 2020 and to date in 2021 have made Paycom more differentiated than ever and we are seeing the benefits across the sales, and product organizations. As a reminder, we have approximately 5% market share of a growing TAM and a long runway ahead I want to thank all of our hard working and dedicated employees for their grit and commitment to success. With that, I'll turn the call over to Craig for a review of our financials and guidance. Greg?

Speaker 2

Before I review our Q3 2021 results

Speaker 3

and our outlook for the Q4 and full year 2021, I would like to remind everyone that my comments related to certain financial measures will be on a non GAAP basis. We are very pleased with our 3rd quarter results with total revenues of $256,200,000 representing growth of 30.4% over the comparable prior year period, driven primarily by strong new client revenue growth. Within total revenues, recurring revenue was $251,300,000 for the Q3 of 2021, representing 98% of total revenues for the quarter And growing 30.4% from the comparable prior year period. Total adjusted gross profit for the Q3 was $214,800,000 representing an adjusted gross margin of 83.8%. 3rd quarter margins were impacted by both our return to office and our aggressive hiring of the individuals needed to service our current and future growth.

Speaker 3

For 2021, we expect to deliver a very strong to gross margin of approximately 85%. Adjusted total administrative expenses were $142,500,000 for the Q3 as compared to $113,300,000 in the Q3 of 2020. Adjusted sales and marketing expense for the Q3 of 2021 were $66,300,000 or 25.9 percent of revenues. Our marketing strategy continues to generate strong demo leads And we plan to continue to invest in advertising given the strong return on our investment we are seeing. As Chad suggested, growth remains a top priority and advertising is a productive lever that we have continued to deploy to drive revenue growth.

Speaker 3

Adjusted R and D was $29,300,000 in the Q3 of 2021 or 11.4 percent of total revenues. Adjusted total R and D cost, including the capitalized portion, were $40,700,000 in the Q3 of 2021 compared to $29,800,000 in the prior year period. Even in this tight labor market, we are having good success attracting and retaining talent. Adjusted EBITDA was 89 point result 2020 or 34.3 percent of total revenues. Our GAAP net income for the Q3 was $30,400,000 or $0.52 per diluted share versus of $27,500,000 or $0.47 per diluted share in the prior year period based on approximately 58,000,000 shares in both periods.

Speaker 3

Non GAAP net income for the Q3 of 2021 was $53,600,000 or $0.92 per diluted share versus $40,600,000 or $0.70 per diluted share in the prior year period. We expect non cash stock based compensation for the Q4 of 2021 to be approximately $22,000,000 to $24,000,000 For the full year, we anticipate non stock based compensation will be approximately $98,000,000 to $100,000,000 For 2021, we anticipate our full year Effective income tax rate to be 23% to 25% on a GAAP basis. On a non GAAP basis, we anticipate our full year effective income tax rate to be 25% to 27%. Turning to the balance sheet. We ended the 3rd quarter of 2021 with cash and cash equivalents of $230,900,000 and total debt of 29,600,000 Cash from operations was $83,200,000 for the 3rd quarter, reflecting our strong revenue performance and the profitability of our business model.

Speaker 3

The average daily balance of funds held on behalf of clients was approximately $1,600,000,000 in the Q3 of 2021. During the Q3 of 2021, we repurchased approximately 61,000 shares for a total of roughly $29,000,000 Through September 30, 2021, Paycom has repurchased nearly 4,300,000 shares since 2016 for a total of approximately $484,000,000 and we currently have roughly $271,000,000 remaining in our buyback program. Shifting to guidance. We are pleased to provide strong 4th quarter guidance that reflects the robust performance year to date and we are raising our full year 2021 outlook as a result. Our Q4 and full year guidance are as follows.

Speaker 3

For the Q4 of 2021, we expect total revenues in the range of $274,500,000 to $276,500,000 representing a growth rate over the comparable prior year period of of approximately 25% at the midpoint of the range. We expect adjusted EBITDA for the 4th quarter in the range of $103,000,000 to $105,000,000 representing an adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 37.7 percent at the midpoint of the range. For fiscal 2021, we are raising our expected revenue range to $1,045,000,000 to $1,047,000,000 up from $1,036,000,000 to $1,038,000,000 or approximately 24% year over year growth at the midpoint of the range. We expect Full year adjusted EBITDA in the range of $413,000,000 to $415,000,000 representing an adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 39.6% at the midpoint of the range. To conclude, we are very pleased with the performance in the quarter and how the full year has been shaping up.

Speaker 3

Product differentiation, outstanding customer service and our use of effective advertising and sales levers are all contributing to our strong results and we have a long runway ahead of us to continue to deliver rapid growth for years to come. With that, we will open the line for questions. Operator?

Operator

Your first question comes from the line of Raimo Lenschow of Barclays. Your line is

Speaker 4

open. Hey, thank you and congrats again for another quarter as the fastest growing HR company that I cover. I have two quick questions. First, Chad, can you talk a little bit about you talked about the customer new customer momentum. Can you talk a little bit about the lending kind of size and the module uptick that you see from these new customers?

Speaker 4

Is there any change In terms of like what people are buying, how Betty, etcetera, are impacting, how big you're lending for them? And then I had one follow-up question.

Speaker 2

Yes, definitely. Well, Betty, for instance, Betty is included on all accounts since July that we've sold. And so that doesn't mean that we've Converted all of them that we've sold since July, but that is included in that, meaning that it's sold as part of the package that we sell with Included in that, there are products that are, to be honest with you, are somewhat our most popular products anyway. But I do believe Betty is making an impact on our ability to sell more products at the point at the initial point of sale.

Speaker 4

Yes. Okay, perfect. And then the if you think back to the pandemic, you kind of did really well in new customers, but your existing customers had lower employee count, which obviously then hurts. Since now in September, like a lot of The benefits kind of fell away. Like what are you seeing in terms of rehiring at the existing customer level?

Speaker 4

And Could that be another driver for you as we think about like next year as well in terms of the revenue trajectory? Thank you.

Speaker 2

Yes, I'm going to take this as you're talking about the clients that we had at the time of the pandemic and then the negative impact on them, which we've quantified in the past of that $1,800,000 to $2,000,000 We've talked about a couple of different quarters of seeing improvement in that. Specifically, this last quarter of result. 2nd quarter, we did talk about we did see a little bit of improvement to the extent we did. It was around $100,000 a week. That trend has continued into the Q3, where I would say it was very similar To what it was in the 2nd quarter as to that improvement of about $1,000,000 to $1,500,000 positive impact on the quarter from our pre pandemic client base becoming a little bit more healthy.

Speaker 4

Perfect. Well done. Congratulations again. Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Samad Samana of Jefferies. Your line is open.

Speaker 5

Hi, good evening. Thanks for taking my questions. Congrats on the strong sustained growth for me as well. Maybe first, Chad, it at least seemed like you guys laid down a clear flag that you're investing for growth and you want to invest aggressively. Just I'm curious as you think about the investments you've made today, is there any change in the mix between those as you think about maybe you mentioned the reopening, Will there be a mix shift in dollars going to either advertising versus back into sales headcount versus other modalities like user conferences?

Speaker 5

Just how should we think about that Investment framework mixing in terms of dollars as the world reopens?

Speaker 2

Sure. We're definitely focused on the marketing and advertising and I'm sure you As I've seen our assets out there working, we continue to drive that. We've also returned to the office, Each of our offices as well as here in Oklahoma City, I was actually a week and a half ago with all of our sales leaders in Aspen as we've done really our first big meeting with one another since the pandemic. Something else that we're doing, we're having a lot of success hiring. We have to hire service individuals and train them up ahead of The revenue that we are bringing in.

Speaker 2

And so we've had a lot of success hiring service individuals with the anticipation that our growth continues as it has and we will need them to service these accounts. And so those are the large areas. Obviously, marketing is more of a lever type area and we spin that deliberately throughout the quarter to make sure that we're not leaving powder in the keg that we could turn into So future sales.

Speaker 1

Yes.

Speaker 3

And Samad, I would also echo that. I mean, we're also having success on the R and D side. I mean, we're able To hire and bring those individuals in as well.

Speaker 5

Great. And then maybe just a question on bookings linearity in the quarter. Maybe if you could just help us understand the overall strength of bookings in the Q3 and then How it trended throughout the quarter just given we've heard kind of varying news in software more broadly around trends evolving over the course of

Speaker 2

Yes, I mean, our bookings in the quarter remained strong throughout Q3. In fact, the October we just finished was our largest booking month ever. I know I say that quite often, but we would expect to have strong quarters in subsequent quarters and Months for bookings, but bookings remain strong. Now deals are booked and then they turn into revenue over time, whether that's 13 weeks or 17 16 weeks is our focus for those. But yes, we had a lot of strong bookings come in, in Q3.

Speaker 2

And as I mentioned, October was our largest booking month we've ever had at our company.

Speaker 5

Great. Thanks again for taking my questions.

Speaker 4

Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Brad Reback of Stifel. Your line is open.

Speaker 2

Great. Thanks very much. Chad, as you sort of look back over the last 18 months and the efficiencies that you've been able to achieve Across the organization, where would be 1 or 2 places where you've generated the most and where do you think it's most sustainable going forward? I mean, that's a good question. I think that we've gained a lot of efficiencies through our own technology that we've developed to use internally.

Speaker 2

Some of that based off of internal communication, which had to strengthen in order to survive the work from home and the impacts of the virtual environment as we move to it. I believe we're still gaining efficiencies through the Sales model as predominantly most all of our sales are still done virtually, which does allow for better training on our side and allows our managers specifically to be able to set on more calls. I'm sure there's others, but I would call out that those 2 for sure. That's great. Thanks very much.

Speaker 2

Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Mark Marcon of Baird. Your line is open.

Speaker 6

Good afternoon, Chad and Craig. Really strong sequential growth in this quarter and obviously called out the bookings. I was wondering, could you help Put a little bit more color behind where you're seeing the booking strength. Is it newer markets for you relative to older markets, smaller clients versus larger clients. Obviously, the marketing Is having a positive impact, but wondering if you're seeing any patterns that are discernible?

Speaker 2

Not really. I would say it's more of the Same for us. There's just more of it. Now, I would remind everyone that we did increase our inside sales group In the past, I talked about that, how we've grown that over the years. We now have 10 teams there that we have.

Speaker 2

Of course, they're bringing in smaller deals with a little bit lower revenue associated with it. But I wouldn't be really be able to call out that the It's different than what we've had in the past. It's the same type mix. We continue to go more upmarket, but we always have. And so but the mix is very similar.

Speaker 6

Great. And can you give a little bit more color with regards to the impact of Betty? And then lastly, just a little bit more color with regards to the impact of bringing people Into the office in terms of the gross margin for this quarter and how we should think about gross margins going forward?

Speaker 2

Yes, I would say the gross margin, I mean, it definitely was impacted some by the return to work. You definitely have some of that. But I would also say that we've had a lot of success hiring Service individuals as we get ready to get trained up for the revenue that we're bringing in. And so There's been quite a bit of it there as well. From a VETI perspective, we started selling it to the group, to the masses in July.

Speaker 2

And since July, I think in July, I said that we had sold 1,000, somewhere in conversion, some had already started. As of today, we've sold nearly 4,000 again, some have already started and some are in conversion. So that product continues to be successful for us As it changes the way that employees do their payroll and really puts the control into their hands.

Speaker 6

That's great. Thank you.

Speaker 7

Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Ryan MacDonald of Needham. Your line is open.

Speaker 7

Hi, everyone. This is Michael Rackers on for Ryan. Thanks for taking my question and congrats on the quarter. At HR Tech and some other industry work we've done this year, we've heard about a lot of new customer interests and vendor functionality and things like daily pay and talent intelligence, which seems to be more targeted to the customer segment that you are starting to target more moving up market. How do you think about product expansion in the larger customer segment that may or may not have some different module requirements?

Speaker 2

I mean, we're in the large for us, the larger Clients are the 10,000 employee companies. I believe our largest clients around 20,000 ish employees. And so we believe we provide a very strong product for that. I've kind of said in the past that there may be such thing as an enterprise level business, but I do not believe there's such thing as an enterprise level employee. You're an employee.

Speaker 2

You can be working with A 300 company today and a company that might have 50,000 employees tomorrow, but you're the same person and you expect the same type of functionality. And that's really what we are providing is the appropriate tools for the employee base. I mean, you can hand me a shovel and ask me to dig a 4 mile Tranche and I may or may not be able to do it, but that's not the correct tool to do that. And so one thing we've been able to do is bring the correct tools To the employee base regardless of size. And a lot of the things you'll find is that the things that an employee has to do are pretty much the same whether that employee is working at a company that has 300 employees or 5,000 employees, all rules apply.

Speaker 2

As you get into the larger companies, you do sometimes have to deal more with international type tax situations and other. But For the most part, we feel really good about the value that our product is able to deliver to those large market employees as well.

Speaker 7

Great. Thank you so much.

Speaker 2

Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Siti Panigrahi of Mizuho. Your line is open.

Speaker 8

Hey, guys. This is actually Matt Diamond on behalf of Citi. Congrats again on the results here. One I'm trying to figure out is the potential for sales office reopening. Chad, it sounds like everybody's enthusiastic to be back in the office, but it's Undeniable the benefits that came from virtual selling over the last 18 months.

Speaker 8

How should we think about sales office openings in 2022?

Speaker 2

Sure. We actually did, I didn't call it out in prepared remarks, but we actually did open up an office In this past quarter, we opened up a second Manhattan office there in New York City. As far as from sales, I think it's important to state that we are back in the office, but we are selling virtually from our office. And so the change there is We were selling virtually from our homes. Now we are back in the office selling virtually from the office.

Speaker 2

And so We have the collaboration and it just makes more sense for us to be there.

Speaker 8

Helpful. And with Betty, it sounds like there's a lot of positive momentum happening in that module. Could you help us understand what percentage of the Paycom's client base today Is prepared to upgrade to Betty or be sold Betty? I know that there's some pre requirements that go into that module, but any color there would Helpful.

Speaker 2

Well, prepared from a product prepared mentally, I'm hoping all of them are, but prepared from a product standpoint, There would be some products that we would upsell to some of our clients that would enable them to get the full Value and actually be able to use Betty. I haven't disclosed exactly what that is because that's a moving target as we continue to have selling Betty both into the current client base as well as to all new clients that are brought on.

Speaker 8

Understood. Thanks so much.

Speaker 9

Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Brian Bergin of Cowen. Your line is open.

Speaker 9

Hey, guys. Good afternoon. Thank you. I have a follow-up on Betty here. So just curious how the efforts are progressing on selling it back into that existing So Chad, of those 4,000 or so sold clients, can you give us a sense on how many of those were in the existing base versus new?

Speaker 2

Well, we're not splitting that out separately, but I would you could expect there'd be a healthy mix of both with 4,000. So you'd have A healthy mix of both. For current clients, it's one of those things where they're having success with our current product in the current environment And we are going up to them asking them to change their internal processes again to start the process at the beginning versus at the end. We're having a lot of success with that. And as we get more and more proof sources of current clients that have shifted over to it and their employees are having great success, we We are receiving both more client referrals as well as more prospect referrals, which is driving more results for us.

Speaker 9

Okay, fair. And then just on the talent and the hiring front, any challenges at all in Acquiring needed talent across the organization, whether that's in sales or services?

Speaker 2

Well, there's no doubt it's a tighter market and it really does depend on at What level we're talking about bringing people in and then also what departments. Some levels we're actually receiving upgrades in talent due to the fact that I think our brand is much stronger than it's been in the past and we are destination location for employment. In some areas, just like everyone else, it's a tight labor market. We're all fighting for talent. So it's really somewhat department dependent as well as at what level of employee versus is it a new frontline type position or is this a management Position, but it's tied everywhere, but we are having a lot of success continuing to bring people in.

Speaker 9

Okay. Thank you. You bet.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Alex Zukin of Gould Research. Your line is open.

Speaker 10

Hey, there. This is Alan on for Alex.

Speaker 5

It seems like there is a bit of an inflection

Speaker 10

in the demand environment in the March April timeframe. How are you thinking about the conflating trends around both reopening along with the shortage of talent? Are Are these opposing forces or are they coming together to drive demand? Thanks.

Speaker 2

I'll tell you from where we're at right now and I've I kind of said this a little bit or consistently, I would say, is we needed stability in the market in order for us to enable our growth So that our growth could actually be reflected as we brought businesses in. We needed some stability. We've had that. As far as it being a tight Labor market, I do think there is some impact, obviously, and the larger we get, the larger the impact on our ability to have what I'm going to call same store or current client Growth and see that. We've never been a company that's been dependent upon that nor have we really looked at that as any type of driver for us.

Speaker 2

And probably still today wouldn't even have thought of it as a question and except for we did go through the pandemic and lost a significant amount through our client base. But from a macro standpoint of what we see amongst our client base, we See stability and our growth is coming from our ability to add new clients onto our platform.

Operator

Next question comes from the line of Robert Simmons of B. A. Davidson. Your line is open.

Speaker 11

Great. Thank you. So I was wondering what are you seeing out there in the market The competition, is there anything unusual going on in terms of pricing, marketing or anything like that you could call out?

Speaker 2

Okay. So it's hard for me to hear you. I heard the what is going on. Is anything going on new with the competition? I can't say.

Speaker 2

I would say we've always been in an extremely competitive market. I think that's good for clients. The more competitive an industry is, the more innovation you see This is the harder we're all trying. I can't say that I've seen anything new in the market from our clients, be it from different types Technologies and or techniques that are used. We've always clients have always sold against us with different pricing Accounting and different people accentuate their positives.

Speaker 2

The positive we accentuate is the fact that we drive Significant return on investment for those and a low cost total ownership for those businesses that choose Paycom and that's all experienced through employee usage in an easy to use product.

Speaker 11

Okay, Great. And then are you seeing any kind of change in demand environment in terms of like which modules are particularly being taken up By clients in terms of like, is there a change of what people really want to focus on or is that really not a factor that's increasing more?

Speaker 2

Yes, sure. I will tell you one thing that we are And I've said this in the past, we've always been really good at selling product, sometimes not as good at getting clients Use the products that we sold. What I would say is happening now and it's really been happening, we came out with the DDX, we came out with Manager on the Go, We kept the data moving. We gave people visibility. Then we came out with Betty and gave them another reason to go ahead and fully automate.

Speaker 2

We've continued to do that and we've continued to see great success around usage, which is really driving everything for us right now. Great. Thank you. Thank you.

Operator

And your last question comes from the line of Bhavin Shah of Deutsche Bank. Your line is open.

Speaker 12

Great. Thanks for taking my question and congrats on the quarter. Chad, I was wondering if you could just dive into the upmarket motion a bit. How the pipeline here evolved since you formally opened up this opportunity? And any sense of how the initial sales cycles that are win rates have compared to the rest of your business?

Speaker 12

I know it's kind of early days still.

Speaker 2

Yes, I would say really no big changes on that. We expanded the market because we're already having success And already had a very strong pipeline as we continue to move up market. I would just say it's more of the same on that and really wouldn't be able Call out many differences than what we've had in the past. We've just formalized our target market up to 10,000 employees now as we had been having success in that $5,000 to $10,000 range throughout this year.

Speaker 12

Got it. And then on Betty, I know you're not breaking up the split between the 4,000 of new and existing. But maybe of those existing, any sense of how many of them come back to the table to adapt additional modules to kind of fully utilize the benefits of employee self payroll?

Speaker 2

Yes. I would say every client that's deployed Betty would have to have the full solution set that Betty requires to be able to even implement Betty. So that would have happened upfront. Again, I do want to state that Most all of the products required or necessary to work Betty are our most popular products. And we're always pretty we've always been pretty good at selling the value to both the client and the employee for them taking that product and using it.

Speaker 2

So Betty itself, it's incremental to our overall revenue and It will prove very positive. But really where it's making the impact, it's driving an incredible amount of value for the client. I mean, it's a very Nominal spend for them to add it, but the value multiple that they're receiving just by adding bedding Really makes all the other products that we've already provided to them much more valuable with a stronger return and it's very measurable for both them and the employee. One thing we are starting to receive a lot more of right now are employee referrals who have used Betty even At one company, they go to another company and we're continuing to have strong referrals from rank and file employees that have used our technology and now are at a different location or business.

I'd like to reiterate that I believe getting vaccinated saves lives. So I hope that everyone who hasn't been vaccinated is able to get it so we can end this pandemic.
