Frequently asked questions
What is Paylocity Holding Corporation's revenue?
Paylocity Holding Corporation's trailing twelve-month revenue is $1.77B. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is PCTY?
In its most recent fiscal year, PCTY ran a gross margin of 69.19%, an operating margin of 21.79%, and a net margin of 15.23%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does PCTY generate?
PCTY produced $497.10M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is PCTY's balance sheet healthy?
PCTY holds $271.92M in cash and equivalents against $81.25M in long-term debt, on $1.22B of shareholder equity. Cash on hand exceeds long-term debt, so the balance sheet adds little financial risk to the thesis.
