Roseland NJ payroll and HCM leader (NASDAQ: ADP) $19.2B FY2024 revenue (+7%); 1.1M clients, $55B+ float income, TotalSource PEO, ADP NER economic data competing with Paychex and Workday.
Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (ADP) is a Roseland, New Jersey-based payroll processing and human capital management company — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: ADP) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — providing payroll processing, tax administration, benefits administration, HR management, time and attendance, talent management, and retirement plan services to 1.1 million clients ranging from small businesses (1-49 employees) to large enterprises (1,000+ employees) through approximately 58,000 employees globally. In fiscal year 2024 (ending June 2024), ADP reported revenues of $19.2 billion (+7% year-over-year) and adjusted EPS of $9.14 (+12%), continuing the company's consistent mid-to-high single digit revenue growth and double-digit EPS growth from operating leverage and capital return. CEO Maria Black (appointed 2023, ADP's first female CEO, previously leading ADP's employer services division) leads ADP's strategy of deepening client platform engagement: ADP's "employer of record" (EOR) and professional employer organization (PEO — ADP TotalSource) services handle all payroll, HR compliance, and benefits administration for small and mid-size businesses — creating outsourcing relationships where ADP becomes the operational HR department for companies that lack internal HR expertise. ADP's client fund float (ADP holds $55+ billion in client payroll funds between the time employers fund payroll and ADP distributes payments to employees and tax authorities — a multi-day float period generating interest income on $55B at current interest rates) generated $1.6B+ in interest income in FY2024 as rates remained elevated, creating an earnings tailwind that amplifies ADP revenue growth during high-interest rate environments.
Richmond VA tobacco and nicotine (NYSE: MO) ~$9.7B net revenue FY2024; Marlboro 40%+ US cigarette share, on! oral pouch competing with Zyn, 50%+ operating margins, ABI stake, competing with Reynolds/BAT.
Altria Group, Inc. is a Richmond, Virginia-based tobacco and nicotine company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MO) as an S&P 500 Consumer Staples component — manufacturing and selling cigarettes (Marlboro — the best-selling cigarette brand in the United States), smokeless tobacco (Copenhagen, Skoal, Red Seal, Husky chewing tobacco/moist snuff brands), oral nicotine pouches (on! brand), and maintaining a 10.7% ownership stake in Anheuser-Busch InBev (SABMiller acquisition consideration shares) and a 35% stake in JUUL Labs (vaping — original $12.8B investment written down to minimal value following JUUL's regulatory and litigation difficulties) through approximately 5,500 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Altria reported revenues of approximately $20.6 billion (net revenues after excise taxes approximately $9.7 billion), with the cigarette segment (Marlboro generating 40%+ US cigarette market share) contributing the majority of operating income at 50%+ adjusted operating margins — the highest margins in the consumer staples sector reflecting cigarettes' inelastic demand and regulated market structure. CEO Billy Gifford has pivoted Altria's strategy from cigarettes toward smoke-free nicotine products: the on! oral nicotine pouch (acquired full ownership of Helix Innovations in 2023, rebranding as on! to compete with Swedish Match Zyn, the dominant US oral nicotine pouch brand) represents Altria's primary nicotine product diversification vehicle as cigarette volume declines 7-8% annually through consumer quit rates and secular health awareness trends.
