What the filing says
Paylocity reported FY2026 recurring & other revenue of $1.651B (12.2% YoY growth) and total revenue of $1.771B (11.0% growth). Net income grew 18.8% to $269.7M ($4.92 diluted EPS). The company repurchased $398.1M or 2.8M shares in FY2026 and $697.8M or 4.6M shares since May 2024. FY2027 guidance projects 8% recurring revenue growth to $1.777–$1.792B. A prospective change to 8-year deferred contract cost amortization (from 7 years) is expected to boost FY2027 Adjusted EBITDA margins by 120–140 bps. The Grayscale Labs acquisition (April 2026) expanded AI-powered recruiting capabilities.
Why this rating
Solid YoY growth (12% recurring revenue) and strong FCF ($427.8M, 24.2% margin) support operational health. However, 8% FY2027 guidance deceleration and $398M annual buyback (~4.4% of $9B market cap) reflect maturing SaaS growth. Routine quarterly earnings, not transformational.
