What are Wall Street analysts saying about Paycom Software stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Paycom Software stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Paycom reported strong Q2 results wherein both earnings and revenues increased year over year and surpassed estimates as well. The company is gaining from solid growth in recurring revenues, backed by new business wins and an increased existing clientele. A strong spurt in sales can be attributed to its employee usage strategy, sales efforts and investments. The launch of differentiated product offering, Direct Data Exchange, for all Paycom Software clients in the first quarter is also boosting client additions. The release of Ask Here also makes us optimistic. However, stiff competition from companies like ADP is a lingering headwind, which could induce pricing pressure and shrink Paycom’s margins. Further, the company’s full-year guidance implies a deceleration in revenue growth, which makes us anxious about the stock's prospects." (8/21/2019)

KeyCorp analysts commented, "We are raising estimates based on incremental confidence in the Company’s ability to maintain its industry leading growth rate and improve margins addressing small- and medium-sized business needs.
