Automatic Data Processing: Perpetually Overvalued To Me
Automatic Data Processing, Inc.'s Q3 earnings showed modest growth with a 5.7% increase in sales and a slight raise in FY2025 guidance, but overall performance remains unimpressive. Despite a strong financial position and predictable cash flows, ADP's high valuation at a 30 PE ratio seems unjustified given its slow growth. ADP's defensive business model, high retention rate, and low volatility make it attractive, but not enough to justify its premium valuation.
