Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market® under the symbol “ADP”.

We recognize the importance of human capital to our future success, and we are focused on hiring, developing and retaining highly qualified, motivated and diverse talent. Predicated on these priorities, our business strategy is based upon the following four strategic pillars, which are designed to position ADP as the global market leader in human capital management (HCM) services:

leverage our global presence to offer clients HCM, benefits, and payroll solutions where they do business; and

ADP provides employers with a wide range of payroll options ranging from manually calling in their payroll to our specialists, entering their payroll data online with an internet-based solution, or outsourcing their entire payroll process to ADP. ADP also enables its largest clients to interface their major enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications with ADP's outsourced payroll services. Employers can choose a variety of payroll payment options ranging from professionally printed checks to ADP's electronic Wage Payment and Pay Card Solutions. ADP also prepares and files federal, state and local payroll tax returns and quarterly and annual social security, Medicare, and federal, state and local income tax withholding reports on our clients' behalf. In addition, as part of our W-2 management services, ADP supplies year-end tax statements to our clients' employees.

ADP Retirement Services also offers trustee services through a third party.

Compliance and Payment Solutions

Employment Tax Services. As part of ADP's employment tax services, ADP prepares and files employment tax returns on our clients' behalf with federal, state, and local tax agencies. In connection with these services, ADP collects federal, state, and local employment taxes from clients and remits these taxes to the appropriate taxing agencies via an electronic interface with over 7,200 federal, state, and local tax agencies in the United States. ADP also responds to inquiries from tax agencies and files tax protests on the clients' behalf. In addition to our full service payroll tax solution, ADP offers a software solution for do-it-yourself employment tax management that can complement a client's in-house payroll system. In our fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 (“fiscal 2013”), ADP in the United States processed and delivered approximately 51 million employee year-end tax statements and over 41 million employer payroll tax returns and deposits, and moved approximately $1.4 trillion in client funds to taxing agencies and its clients' employees via electronic transfer, direct deposit, and ADPCheckTM.

Tax Credits Services. ADP Tax Credits Services helps clients take advantage of tax credit opportunities as they hire new employees, including federal, state, and local tax credits based on geography, demographics, and other criteria such as work opportunity tax credits, federal empowerment zone employment credits, economic development incentives, training grants, and many other incentives. Integrating the entire process with clients' existing hiring programs, ADP Tax Credits Services enables clients to screen employees and process eligibility forms, monitor and manage screening compliance and form compliance, submit forms to state agencies for tax credit certification, calculate credits, and produce a detailed audit trail.

Dealer Services

Dealer Management Systems (DMS) and Other Retail Solutions. Dealer Services' Dealer Management Systems offer comprehensive, integrated solutions that dealerships use to manage their core dealership business activities. DMS solutions are available as “on-site” applications installed at the dealership or as managed services solutions in which clients access ADP's DMS solutions through a cloud-based IT environment managed by ADP. The DMS accounting modules help clients manage all standard accounting procedures, including general ledger, receivables and balance sheet maintenance. The DMS service and parts modules enable automation of client operations such as service and repair order processing, purchase orders and parts ordering. The DMS sales and finance and insurance (F&I) modules facilitate clients' ability to manage customer inquiries, develop, analyze, present, and consummate transactions with customers, manage and print the forms needed to consummate such transactions, and track funds. Dealer Services also offers a full range of additional solutions that address every department and functional area of the dealership, including customer relationship management (CRM) applications, vehicle inventory and lot management solutions, and telephone systems. These additional solutions are typically fully integrated with the DMS.

Digital Marketing Solutions. Dealer Services provides digital marketing solutions under the Cobalt® brand, which ADP acquired in 2010. Cobalt digital marketing solutions and services include dealership websites, sales leads, email marketing, search and display advertising, and social media marketing and management services. These solutions are sold both as retail network marketing programs in conjunction with the manufacturers of ten leading automotive brands, as well as directly to auto dealerships and regional dealer associations.

Dealer Services' network solutions also include integrated IP telephony systems, wired and wireless network access solutions, and security management applications.

Training Services. Dealer Services offers comprehensive training and business process consulting services for many of its business solutions via multiple delivery methods. Task-specific internet-based courses are fully automated and available 24 hours a day. Dealer Services also provides interactive instructor-led training via internet-based sessions or live classroom courses that are customized to meet our clients' specific needs.
MARKETS AND MARKETING METHODS

Employer Services offers its products and services in the United States and abroad. Our GlobalView offering is available in 41 foreign countries and our Streamline offering is available in 91 foreign countries, 41 of which are countries in which we also offer our GlobalView services. In addition, Employer Services offers in-country payroll and human resources outsourcing solutions to both small and large clients in close to 30 countries. In Canada, we are a leading provider of payroll processing (including full departmental outsourcing) and human resource administration services. Within Europe, we have business operations supporting our in-country solutions in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. We also offer payroll outsourcing services as well as HCM solutions in South America (in Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and Peru), China, India, and Australia. We offer wage and tax collection and remittance services in Canada, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and France. PEO Services offers services exclusively in the United States. In fiscal 2013, 80% of Employer Services' revenues were from the United States, 13% were from Europe, 5% were from Canada, and 2% were from South America, Australia, and Asia.

Dealer Services primarily serves automobile dealers, which in turn may be dependent on a relatively small number of auto manufacturers, but also serves truck, powersports (i.e., motorcycle, marine, and RV) and heavy equipment dealers, auto repair shops, used car lots, state departments of motor vehicles, vehicle manufacturers, and vehicle distributors. Dealer Services has offerings in more than 100 countries across North America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and the Asia Pacific region.

We market our products and services primarily through our direct sales force. Employer Services also markets its solutions through indirect sales channels, such as marketing relationships with banks and accountants, among others. In addition, Dealer Services uses distributors to sell, implement and support its solutions in select emerging markets. None of ADP's major business groups has a single homogenous client base or market. While concentrations of clients exist in specific industries, no one client or industry group is material to ADP's overall revenues. ADP enjoys a leadership position in each of its major service offerings and does not believe any major service or major business unit of ADP is subject to unique market risk.

COMPETITION

The industries in which ADP operates are highly competitive. ADP knows of no reliable statistics by which it can determine the number of its competitors, but it believes that it is one of the largest providers of business outsourcing solutions in the world. Employer Services and PEO Services compete with other independent business outsourcing companies, companies providing enterprise resource planning services, software companies and financial institutions. Captive in-house functions, whereby a company installs and operates its own business processing systems, are another competitive factor in the industries in which Employer Services and PEO Services operate. Dealer Services' competitors include full service DMS providers, such as The Reynolds & Reynolds Company (Dealer Services' largest DMS competitor in the United States and Canada), DealerTrack, Inc., and companies providing applications and services that compete with Dealer Services' non-DMS applications and services, such as Auto Trader Group, Inc. and Dealer.com, Inc.

INDUSTRY REGULATION

Our business is subject to a wide range of complex laws and regulations. In addition, many of our products and services are designed to assist clients with their compliance with laws and regulations to which they are subject. We have developed and continue to enhance compliance programs and policies to monitor and address the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to our products, services, and operations, including dedicated compliance personnel and training programs.

As one of the world's largest providers of business outsourcing solutions, our systems contain a significant amount of both client data and data related to employees of our clients. We are, therefore, subject to compliance obligations under both federal and state privacy and data security-related laws, including, with respect to some of our businesses such as our COBRA, flexible spending account and insurance services businesses and ADP AdvancedMD®, the Health Insurance Portability and

8


Accountability Act of 1996. We are also subject to federal and state security breach notification laws with respect to client employee data.

As part of our payroll and payroll tax management services, we move client funds to taxing authorities and our clients' employees via electronic transfer, direct deposit, and ADPCheck. Certain elements of our U.S. money transmission activities, including our electronic payment and prepaid access (payroll pay card) offerings, are subject to certain licensing requirements. Elements of our money transmission activities outside of the United States are subject to similar laws and requirements in the countries in which we offer such services. In addition, our U.S. prepaid access (payroll card) offering is subject to the anti-money laundering and reporting provisions of the Bank Secrecy Act.  Our employee screening and selection services business offers background checking services that are subject to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Our PEO business (ADP TotalSource) is subject to various state licensing requirements. In addition, because ADP TotalSource is a co-employer with respect to its clients' worksite employees, we may assume certain obligations and responsibilities of an employer under federal and state tax, insurance and employment laws.

In addition, many of our businesses offer products and services that assist our clients in complying with laws and regulations to which they are subject; although the laws apply to our clients and not to ADP, changes in such laws may affect our operations, products and services. For example, our COBRA administration services and flexible spending account services are designed to comply with relevant federal guidelines relating to, respectively, employers' benefits continuation obligations and the requirements of Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code. Similarly, our tax credits services business, which helps clients take advantage of tax credit opportunities as they hire new employees, is based on federal, state, or local tax laws and regulations allowing for tax credits. We are also impacted by foreign data privacy laws, such as the European Union Privacy Directive, which regulate the processing of personal information.

The foregoing description does not include an exhaustive list of the laws and regulations governing and impacting our business. See the discussion contained in the "Risk Factors" section in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information regarding changes in laws and regulations that may decrease our revenues and earnings.

CLIENTS AND CLIENT CONTRACTS

ADP provides its services to approximately 620,000 clients. In fiscal 2013, no single client or group of affiliated clients accounted for revenues in excess of 2% of annual consolidated revenues.

ADP is continuously in the process of performing implementation services for new clients. Depending on the service agreement and/or the size of the client, the installation or conversion period for new clients could vary from a short period of time for a small Employer Services client with fewer than 50 employees (as little as 24 hours) to a longer period for a large Employer Services client with 1,000 or more employees or a Dealer Services client with multiple deliverables (generally six to twelve months), and in some cases may exceed two years for a large GlobalView client or other large, complicated implementation. Although we monitor sales that have not yet been billed or installed, we do not view this metric as material in light of the recurring nature of our business. This is not a reported number, but it is used by management as a planning tool relating to resources needed to install services, and a means of assessing our performance against the installation timing expectations of our clients.

Our business is typically characterized by long-term client relationships that result in recurring revenue. Our services are provided under written price quotations or service agreements having varying terms and conditions. No one price quotation or service agreement is material to ADP. ADP's client retention is estimated at approximately 12 years in Employer Services, approximately 6 years in PEO Services, and approximately 12 years in Dealer Services, and has not varied significantly from period to period.

SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRAMMING

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, ADP invested approximately $757 million, $699 million, and $667 million, respectively, from continuing operations, in systems development and programming, migration to new computing technologies and the development of new products and maintenance of our existing technologies, including purchases of new software and software licenses.


9


PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

ADP continually upgrades, enhances, and expands its existing solutions and services. Generally, no new solution or service has a significant effect on ADP's revenues or negatively impacts its existing solutions and services, and ADP's solutions and services have significant remaining life cycles.

LICENSES

ADP is the licensee under a number of agreements for computer programs and databases. ADP's business is not dependent upon a single license or group of licenses. Third-party licenses, patents, trademarks, and franchises are not material to ADP's business as a whole.

NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES

ADP employed approximately 60,000 persons as of June 30, 2013.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our businesses routinely encounter and address risks, some of which may cause our future results to be different than we currently anticipate. Risk factors described below represent our current view of some of the most important risks facing our businesses and are important to understanding our business. The following information should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion includes a number of forward-looking statements. You should refer to the description of the qualifications and limitations on forward-looking statements in the first paragraph under Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The level of importance of each of the following risks may vary from time to time, and any of these risks may have a material effect on our business.
Changes in laws and regulations may decrease our revenues and earnings
Our business is subject to a wide range of complex laws and regulations. Changes in laws or governmental regulations, or changes in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations by a regulatory authority, may decrease our revenues and earnings and may require us to change the manner in which we conduct some aspects of our business. For example, a change in regulations either decreasing the amount of taxes to be withheld or allowing less time to remit taxes to government authorities would adversely impact interest income from investing client funds before such funds are remitted to the applicable taxing authorities or client employees. Changes in taxation requirements in the United States or in other countries could adversely affect our effective tax rate and our net income. Changes in laws that govern the co-employment arrangement between a professional employer organization and its worksite employees may require us to change the manner in which we conduct some aspects of our PEO business. Health care reform under the Affordable Care Act, as amended, related state laws, and the regulations adopted or to be adopted thereunder, have the potential to impact substantially the way that employers provide health insurance to employees and the health insurance market for the small and mid-sized businesses that comprise ADP TotalSource's clients and prospects. We are unable to determine the ultimate impact that health care reform will have on our PEO business and our ability to attract and retain PEO clients. Amendments to money transmitter statutes have required us to receive licenses in some jurisdictions, and the adoption of new money transmitter statutes in other jurisdictions, as well as changes in the interpretation of existing statutes, in the future could require additional registration or licensing, as well as possible changes to the manner in which we conduct some aspects of our money movement business or our client funds investment strategy.
Cybersecurity and privacy breaches may hurt our business, damage our reputation, increase our costs, and cause losses
Our systems and networks store personal information about our clients and employees of our clients. In addition, our retirement services systems maintain investor account information for retirement plans. We have security systems and information technology infrastructure in place designed to protect against unauthorized access to such information. However, there is still a risk that the security systems and infrastructure that we maintain may not be successful in protecting against all security breaches and cyber attacks. Third parties, including vendors that provide services for our operations, could also be a source of security risk to us in the event of a failure of their own security systems and infrastructure. Any significant violations of data privacy could result in the loss of business, litigation, regulatory investigations, and penalties that could damage our reputation and adversely affect the growth of our business.
Our systems may be subject to disruptions that could adversely affect our business and reputation
Many of our businesses are highly dependent on our ability to process, on a daily basis, a large number of complicated transactions. We rely heavily on our payroll, financial, accounting, and other data processing systems. If any of these systems fails to operate properly or becomes disabled even for a brief period of time, we could suffer financial loss, a disruption of our businesses, liability to clients, regulatory intervention, or damage to our reputation. We have disaster recovery, business continuity, and crisis management plans and procedures designed to protect our businesses against a multitude of events including natural disasters, military or terrorist actions, power or communication failures, or similar events. Despite our preparations, our plans may not be successful in preventing the loss of client data, service interruptions, disruptions to our operations, or damage to our important facilities.
If we fail to adapt our technology to meet client needs and preferences, the demand for our services may diminish
Our businesses operate in industries that are subject to rapid technological advances and changing client needs and preferences. In order to remain competitive and responsive to client demands, we continually upgrade, enhance, and expand our existing solutions and services. If we fail to respond successfully to technology challenges, the demand for our services may diminish.

Political and economic factors may adversely affect our business and financial results
Trade, monetary and fiscal policies, and political and economic conditions may substantially change, and credit markets may experience periods of constriction and volatility. When there is a slowdown in the economy, employment levels and interest rates may decrease with a corresponding impact on our businesses. Clients may react to worsening conditions by reducing their spending on payroll and other outsourcing services or renegotiating their contracts with us. In addition, a reduction in availability of financing during such conditions, even to borrowers with the highest credit ratings, may limit our access to short-term debt markets to meet liquidity needs required by our Employer Services business.
We invest our client funds in liquid, investment-grade marketable securities, money market securities, and other cash equivalents. Nevertheless, our client fund assets are subject to general market, interest rate, credit, and liquidity risks. These risks may be exacerbated, individually or in unison, during periods of unusual financial market volatility.
We are dependent upon various large banks to execute Automated Clearing House and wire transfers as part of our client payroll and tax services. While we have contingency plans in place for bank failures, a systemic shutdown of the banking industry would impede our ability to process funds on behalf of our payroll and tax services clients and could have an adverse impact on our financial results and liquidity.
We derive a significant portion of our revenues and operating income outside of the United States and, as a result, we are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Change in our credit ratings could adversely impact our operations and lower our profitability
The major credit rating agencies periodically evaluate our creditworthiness and have consistently given us their highest long-term debt and commercial paper ratings. Failure to maintain high credit ratings on long-term and short-term debt could increase our cost of borrowing, reduce our ability to obtain intra-day borrowing required by our Employer Services business, and ultimately reduce our client interest revenue.
We may be unable to attract and retain qualified personnel
Our ability to grow and provide our clients with competitive services is partially dependent on our ability to attract and retain highly motivated people with the skills to serve our clients. Competition for skilled employees in the outsourcing and other markets in which we operate is intense and, if we are unable to attract and retain highly skilled and motivated personnel, results of our operations may suffer.

Note 1. Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following table reconciles results within our Selected Financial Data to adjusted results that exclude a goodwill impairment charge related to our ADP AdvancedMD business for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 ("fiscal 2013"), a gain on the sale of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 ("fiscal 2012"), and certain favorable tax items for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. We use certain adjusted results, among other measures, to evaluate our operating performance in the absence of certain items and for planning and forecasting of future periods. We believe that the adjusted results provide relevant and useful information for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by us and improves our ability to understand our operating performance. Since adjusted earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, and adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) from continuing operations are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), they should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, net earnings from continuing operations, and diluted EPS from continuing operations, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report and other written or oral statements made from time to time by Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (“ADP”) may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical in nature, and which may be identified by the use of words like “expects,” “assumes,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “we believe,” “could” and other words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on management's expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include: ADP's success in obtaining, retaining and selling additional services to clients; the pricing of services and products; changes in laws regulating payroll taxes, professional employer organizations and employee benefits; overall market and economic conditions, including interest rate and foreign currency trends; competitive conditions; auto sales and related industry changes; employment and wage levels; changes in technology; availability of skilled technical associates; and the impact of new acquisitions and divestitures. ADP disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These risks and uncertainties, along with the risk factors discussed under "Item 1A.  Risk Factors," should be considered in evaluating any forward-looking statements contained herein.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

ADP's mission is to power organizations with insightful solutions that drive business success. We seek to embrace new technology and innovation to deliver market leading products and services that meet the needs of our clients across all of our markets. Our commitment to service excellence lies at the core of our relationship with each of our clients, whether a small, mid-sized or large business, or a multinational enterprise. Our business strategy is based on four strategic pillars, which are predicated on our ability to drive innovation and service excellence, and attract, build, and retain the right talent to position ADP as the global market leader in human capital management (HCM) services. Our strategic pillars are to:

16



grow our integrated suite of cloud-based HCM, benefits, and payroll solutions to serve the U.S. market;
invest to grow and scale our HR Business Process Outsourcing solutions by leveraging our platforms and processes;
leverage our global presence to offer clients HCM, benefits, and payroll solutions where they do business; and
grow and deepen our solutions offering to ensure our key adjacencies are market leaders.
Our results during fiscal 2013 continue to reflect the strength of our underlying business model, including the diversity of our client base and products, against the uneven global economic recovery. Our focus on product innovation and improvements in salesforce productivity led to growth in new business bookings. We are pleased with the performance of our business segments, which have continued to drive good revenue growth and strong pretax margin expansion. We continue to benefit from solid revenue retention across our business segments and we remain pleased with the strength of our pays per control metric, which represents the number of employees on our clients' payrolls as measured on a same-store-sales basis utilizing a representative subset of payrolls ranging from small to large businesses that are reflective of a broad range of U.S. geographic regions. Despite the negative impact to our margins from strategic acquisitions completed in fiscal 2012, we remain pleased with their positive contribution to our revenue growth. We continue to be impacted by the decline in high-margin client interest revenues as a result of lower interest rates, partially offset by an increase in our average client funds balance. Though we believe that the impact to fiscal 2013 client funds revenue will be the bottom in terms of the year-over-year decline, we expect the lower interest rate environment to continue to impact us negatively during the year ending June 30, 2014 (“fiscal 2014”).
Consolidated revenues in fiscal 2013 increased 7%, to $11,310.1 million, as compared to fiscal 2012. Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes decreased 1%, to $2,084.3 million, as compared to fiscal 2012 and net earnings from continuing operations decreased 1%, to $1,364.1 million, as compared to fiscal 2012. Our diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was flat in fiscal 2013 as compared to $2.80 per share in fiscal 2012 on fewer shares outstanding.
Our fiscal 2013 results include a $42.7 million non tax-deductible goodwill impairment charge related to our ADP AdvancedMD business. Our fiscal 2012 results include a gain on the sale of assets of $66.0 million, or $41.2 million after tax, related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform. Excluding these items from both years, our adjusted earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increased 4%, to $2,127.0 million, as compared to $2,041.9 million for fiscal 2012, and adjusted net earnings from continuing operations increased 5%, to $1,406.8 million, compared to $1,338.5 million for fiscal 2012. Our adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 6%, to $2.89 for fiscal 2013 from $2.72, as adjusted, for fiscal 2012, on increased adjusted net earnings from continuing operations and fewer shares outstanding.
Our business segment results were solid with Employer Services' revenues increasing 7% to $7,914.0 million and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increasing 9% to $2,134.2 million, PEO Services' revenues increasing 11% to $1,973.2 million and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increasing 17% to $199.2 million, and Dealer Services' revenues increasing 9% to $1,813.7 million and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increasing 21% to $335.7 million in fiscal 2013. Employer Services' and PEO Services' new business bookings, which represent annualized recurring revenues anticipated from sales orders to new and existing clients, grew 11% worldwide, to over $1.35 billion in fiscal 2013. Dealer Services' new business bookings showed strength as we continued to experience the effects of a stronger automotive industry and increased penetration of applications within our base. Our key business metrics continue to reflect the core strength of our business model, with our Employer Services' worldwide client revenue retention rate increasing to a record 91.3% and our pays per control metric increasing 2.8% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013.
Interest on funds held for clients decreased approximately 15%, or $72.4 million, to $420.9 million from $493.3 million in fiscal 2012. The decrease in the consolidated interest on funds held for clients resulted from the decrease in the average interest rate earned to 2.2% in fiscal 2013, as compared to 2.8% in fiscal 2012, partially offset by growth in average client funds balance of 7% resulting from the continued strength and growth of our Employer Services segment.

We invest our funds held for clients in accordance with ADP's prudent and conservative investment guidelines, where the safety of principal, liquidity, and diversification are the foremost objectives of our investment strategy. The portfolio is predominantly invested in AAA/AA rated fixed-income securities. Our client funds investment strategy is structured to allow us to average our way through an interest rate cycle by laddering the maturities of our investments out to five years (in the case of the extended portfolio) and out to ten years (in the case of the long portfolio).  This investment strategy is supported by our short-term financing arrangements necessary to satisfy short-term funding requirements relating to client funds obligations.
  
Our financial condition and balance sheet remain solid at June 30, 2013, with cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $2,041.1 million. The cash and marketable securities balance included $0.7 million of cash and $245.2 million of long-term marketable securities pledged as collateral to the outstanding reverse repurchase obligations as of June 30,

17



2013, which were repaid on July 2, 2013. This borrowing was a normal part of our client funds extended investment strategy. Our net cash flows provided by operating activities were $1,577.2 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to $1,910.2 million in fiscal 2012. This decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities from fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2013 was due to the fiscal 2013 payment of a reinsurance arrangement with ACE American Insurance Company, higher pension plan contributions, a variance in the timing of tax-related net cash payments, and unfavorable changes in timing differences on the remaining net components of working capital, partially offset by higher net earnings. The increase in cash used in investing activities of $4,822.0 million is due to the timing of receipts and disbursements of restricted cash and cash equivalents held to satisfy client funds obligations, partially offset by the amount of cash used for business acquisitions and proceeds from the sale of businesses included in discontinued operations. The increase in cash provided by financing activities of $5,104.9 million is primarily due to the timing of cash received and payments made related to client funds as compared to the prior year.

We have a strong business model with a high percentage of recurring revenues, excellent margins, the ability to generate consistent, healthy cash flows, strong client retention, and low capital expenditure requirements. We continue to enhance value to our shareholders, and in fiscal 2013 returned excess cash of $805.5 million through dividends and $647.3 million through our share buyback program. In the last five fiscal years, we have reduced the Company's common stock outstanding by approximately 5% through share buybacks, net of the effect of common stock issued under employee stock-based compensation programs. We have also raised the dividend payout per share for 38 consecutive years.

Fiscal 2013 Compared to Fiscal 2012

Total Revenues

Total revenues increased $694.1 million, or 7%, to $11,310.1 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012, due to an increase in revenues in Employer Services of 7%, or $525.5 million, to $7,914.0 million, an increase in revenues in PEO Services of 11%, or $201.8 million, to $1,973.2 million, and an increase in revenues in Dealer Services of 9%, or $152.4 million, to $1,813.7 million.  Total revenues would have increased approximately 6% without the impact of recently completed acquisitions and the impact to revenues pertaining to the sale in fiscal 2012 of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform.  In addition, revenues decreased $61.3 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Total revenues in fiscal 2013 include interest on funds held for clients of $420.9 million, as compared to $493.3 million in fiscal 2012.  The decrease in the consolidated interest earned on funds held for clients resulted from the decrease in

19



the average interest rate earned to 2.2% in fiscal 2013, as compared to 2.8% in fiscal 2012, partially offset by an increase in our average client funds balance of 7%, to $19.2 billion, in fiscal 2013.

Total Expenses

Our total expenses increased $643.1 million, or 7%, to $9,322.0 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  The increase in our total expenses was due to an increase in operating expenses of $377.2 million, an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $163.7 million, an increase in systems development and programming costs of $61.6 million, and the goodwill impairment charge of $42.7 million. Total expenses would have increased approximately 7% without the impact of the goodwill impairment charge and 6% without the impact of recently completed acquisitions.

Our total costs of revenues increased $435.3 million, or 7%, to $6,649.6 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012, due to an increase in operating expenses of $377.2 million and an increase in systems development and programming costs of $61.6 million.

Operating expenses increased $377.2 million, or 7% in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012, due to the increase in revenues described above, including the increases in PEO Services, which has pass-through costs that are re-billable and which includes costs for benefits coverage, workers’ compensation coverage and state unemployment taxes for worksite employees.  These pass-through costs were $1,513.5 million for fiscal 2013, which included costs for benefits coverage of $1,193.2 million and costs for workers’ compensation and payment of state unemployment taxes of $320.3 million.  These pass-through costs were $1,363.6 million for fiscal 2012, which included costs for benefits coverage of $1,060.3 million and costs for workers’ compensation and payment of state unemployment taxes of $303.3 million.  The increase in operating expenses is also due to expenses related to businesses acquired of $84.4 million and higher labor-related expenses in Employer Services of $69.4 million, partially offset by a decrease of $34.0 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Systems development and programming costs increased $61.6 million, or 10%, in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012, due to increased costs to develop, support, and maintain our products and increased costs related to businesses acquired of $6.6 million, partially offset by a decrease of $6.7 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $163.7 million, or 7%, in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  The increase in expenses was related to an increase in selling expenses of $72.9 million resulting from investments in our salesforce and an increase in expenses of businesses acquired of $16.3 million, partially offset by a decrease of $24.6 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Additionally, selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $24.1 million due to lower severance expenses in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.

Other income, net, decreased $74.6 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  The decrease was due to a $66.0 million gain on the sale of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform in fiscal 2012 and a decrease in interest income on corporate funds of $20.7 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  The decrease in interest income on corporate funds resulted from lower average interest rates from 2.1% in fiscal 2012 to 1.5% in fiscal 2013, partially offset by increasing average daily corporate funds, which increased from $4.0 billion in fiscal 2012 to $4.2 billion in fiscal 2013. Such decreases were partially offset by gains of $2.2 million pertaining to the sale of two

20



buildings in fiscal 2013, a $5.8 million impairment loss on available-for-sale securities in fiscal 2012, and an impairment loss of $2.2 million related to assets previously classified as assets held for sale in fiscal 2012.
 
Earnings from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes

Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes decreased $23.6 million, or 1%, to $2,084.3 million in fiscal 2013, which includes the effect of the $42.7 million goodwill impairment charge, compared to $2,107.9 million in fiscal 2012, which includes the effect of a $66.0 million gain on the sale of assets related to the rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform. Overall margin decreased approximately 140 basis points in fiscal 2013 with approximately 40 basis points of margin decrease attributable to the goodwill impairment charge, 20 basis points of margin decrease attributable to acquisitions completed in fiscal 2012, and 90 basis points related to the continued decline in interest on funds held for clients discussed above. In addition, overall margin decreased approximately 60 basis points due to the fiscal 2012 gain on the sale of assets related to the rights and obligations to resell a third-party management platform. These decreases were partially offset by margin improvements in our business segments.

Adjusted earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increased $85.1 million, or 4%, to $2,127.0 million, in fiscal 2013, compared to $2,041.9 million for fiscal 2012, due to increased revenue and margin improvement in our business segments, partially offset by the continued decline in interest on funds held for clients.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate in fiscal 2013 and 2012 was 34.6% and 34.5%, respectively.  Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2013 includes the effect of a non tax-deductible goodwill impairment charge of $42.7 million that increased our effective tax rate by 0.7 percentage points in the period.  The 0.7 percentage point increase was offset by a reduction in foreign taxes and the availability of higher foreign tax credits in fiscal 2013, as compared to 2012.

Net Earnings from Continuing Operations and Diluted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations

Net earnings from continuing operations decreased $15.6 million, or 1%, to $1,364.1 million in fiscal 2013, which includes the effect of the $42.7 million goodwill impairment charge, compared to $1,379.7 million in fiscal 2012, which included the effect of an after tax gain on the sale of assets of $41.2 million. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was flat in fiscal 2013, as compared to $2.80 in fiscal 2012.
 
In fiscal 2013, our diluted earnings per share from continuing operations reflects the decrease in net earnings from continuing operations and the impact of fewer shares outstanding as a result of the repurchase of approximately 10.4 million shares in fiscal 2013.

Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations increased $68.3 million, or 5%, to $1,406.8 million, in fiscal 2013, as compared to $1,338.5 million for fiscal 2012, and the adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 6%, to $2.89 for fiscal 2013, compared to $2.72, as adjusted, for fiscal 2012. The increase in adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for fiscal 2013 reflects the increase in adjusted net earnings from continuing operations and the impact of fewer shares outstanding due to the repurchase of approximately 10.4 million shares in fiscal 2013.

Fiscal 2012 Compared to Fiscal 2011
 
 
 
 
 
 
Total Revenues

Our total revenues increased $783.0 million, or 8%, to $10,616.0 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011, due to an increase in revenues in Employer Services of 7%, or $510.2 million, to $7,388.5 million, PEO Services of 15%, or $227.5 million, to $1,771.4 million, and Dealer Services of 10%, or $147.8 million, to $1,661.3 million. Total revenues would have increased approximately 6% without the impact of recently completed acquisitions and the impact to revenues pertaining to the sale of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform. There was no impact to total revenue growth rates as a result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Total revenues for fiscal 2012 include interest on funds held for clients of $493.3 million, as compared to $540.1 million in fiscal 2011. The decrease in the consolidated interest earned on funds held for clients resulted from the decrease in

21



the average interest rate earned to 2.8% during fiscal 2012, as compared to 3.2% for fiscal 2011, partially offset by an increase in our average client funds balance of 6%, to $17.9 billion in fiscal 2012.  

Total Expenses

Our total expenses increased $647.3 million, or 8%, to $8,678.9 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011. The increase in our total expenses was due to an increase in operating expenses of $476.6 million, an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $142.3 million, and an increase in systems development and programming costs of $22.7 million. Total expenses would have increased approximately 6% without the impact of recently completed acquisitions.

Our total costs of revenues increased 9%, to $6,214.3 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011 due to an increase in operating expenses of $476.6 million and an increase in systems development and programming costs of $22.7 million.

Operating expenses increased $476.6 million, or 10%, in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011 due to the increase in revenues described above, including the increases in PEO Services, which has pass-through costs that are re-billable and which includes costs for benefits coverage, workers' compensation coverage and state unemployment taxes for worksite employees. These pass-through costs were $1,363.6 million in fiscal 2012, which included costs for benefits coverage of $1,060.3 million and costs for workers' compensation and payment of state unemployment taxes of $303.3 million. These pass-through costs were $1,182.2 million in fiscal 2011, which included costs for benefits coverage of $937.8 million and costs for workers' compensation and payment of state unemployment taxes of $244.4 million. The increase in operating expenses is also due to operating expenses related to businesses acquired of $132.1 million, and higher labor-related expenses in Employer Services of $38.5 million. Additionally, operating expenses decreased $5.4 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Systems development and programming costs increased $22.7 million, or 4%, in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011, due to businesses acquired of $16.1 million, partially offset by a higher proportion of capitalizable efforts directed at feature and functionality product enhancements in the period. Additionally, systems, development, and programming costs decreased $1.3 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $142.3 million, or 6%, in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011. The increase in expenses was related to severance expenses of $51.2 million resulting from cost reduction initiatives focused on the realization of synergies in certain international businesses as we adjust our cost structure in light of the softer European economic environment, an increase in selling expenses of $55.5 million resulting from increases in salesforce headcount coupled with an increase in expenses of businesses acquired of $36.7 million. Additionally, selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $9.0 million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Other income, net, increased $54.2 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011. This increase was due to a gain of $66.0 million pertaining to the sale of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform during fiscal 2012. This increase was partially offset by the net activity related to our available-for-sale securities, including realized gains, realized losses and impairment losses, which together resulted in a decrease in other income, net of

22



$15.8 million, and a decrease in interest income on corporate funds of $3.6 million during fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011. The decrease in interest income on corporate funds resulted from lower average interest rates from 2.6% for fiscal 2011 to 2.1% for fiscal 2012, partially offset by increasing average daily corporate funds, which increased from $3.5 billion for fiscal 2011 to $4.0 billion for fiscal 2012. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2012, we completed the sale of two buildings previously classified as assets held for sale for their combined carrying value of $6.9 million, net of selling costs. We had previously recorded impairment charges related to these two buildings of $2.2 million and $11.7 million during fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Earnings from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes

Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increased $189.9 million, or 10%, to $2,107.9 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011, due to the increase in revenues and the gain on sale of assets, partially offset by the increase in expenses discussed above. Overall margin increased approximately 30 basis points in fiscal 2012 with approximately 60 basis points of the margin contribution related to the gain on the sale of assets and approximately 40 basis points of margin decline attributable to acquisitions.

Adjusted earnings from continuing operations increased $123.9, or 6%, to $2,041.9 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to $1,918.0 million, as reported, for fiscal 2011 due to increased revenue and margin improvement in our business segments, partially offset by decline in interest on funds held for clients.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rates in fiscal 2012 and 2011 were 34.5% and 35.1%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the fiscal year is the result of the final resolution of certain tax matters, the expiration of certain statutes of limitation, and the availability of foreign tax credits, partially offset by an unfavorable mix of earnings between jurisdictions.

Net Earnings from Continuing Operations and Diluted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations

Net earnings from continuing operations increased $134.7 million, or 11%, to $1,379.7 million in fiscal 2012 and includes an after-tax gain on sale of assets of $41.2 million, as compared to fiscal 2011. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 12%, to $2.80 compared to $2.50 in fiscal 2011. The increase in diluted earnings per share reflects the increase in net earnings and the impact of fewer shares outstanding as a result of the repurchase of approximately 14.6 million shares during fiscal 2012.

Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations increased $93.5 million, or 8% to $1,338.5 million, for fiscal 2012, from $1,245.0 million, as reported, for fiscal 2011, and the related diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, as adjusted, increased 9%, to $2.72 for fiscal 2012. The increase in diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, for fiscal 2012 reflects the increase in adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, as adjusted, and the impact of fewer shares outstanding due to the repurchase of approximately 14.6 million shares during fiscal 2012.

The prior years' reportable segment revenues and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes have been adjusted to reflect updated fiscal 2013 budgeted foreign exchange rates.  This adjustment is made for management purposes so that the reportable segments' revenues are presented on a consistent basis without the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  This adjustment is a reconciling item to revenues from continuing operations and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and is eliminated in consolidation.

Certain revenues and expenses are charged to the reportable segments at a standard rate for management reasons. Other costs are charged to the reportable segments based on management’s responsibility for the applicable costs.  The primary components of the “Other” segment are the results of operations of ADP Indemnity (a wholly-owned captive insurance company that provides workers’ compensation and employer’s liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees), non-recurring gains and losses, miscellaneous processing services, such as customer financing transactions, and certain charges and expenses that have not been allocated to the reportable segments, such as stock-based compensation expense and the goodwill impairment charge.


24



In addition, the reconciling items include an adjustment for the difference between actual interest income earned on invested funds held for clients and interest credited to Employer Services and PEO Services at a standard rate of 4.5%.  This allocation is made for management reasons so that the reportable segments’ results are presented on a consistent basis without the impact of fluctuations in interest rates.  This allocation is a reconciling item to our reportable segments’ revenues from continuing operations and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and is eliminated in consolidation.

Finally, the reportable segments’ results also include a cost of capital charge related to the funding of acquisitions and other investments.  This charge is a reconciling item to earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and is eliminated in consolidation.

Revenues

Employer Services' revenues increased $525.5 million, or 7%, to $7,914.0 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  Revenues for our Employer Services business would have increased approximately 6% without the impact of acquisitions and revenues pertaining to the sale in fiscal 2012 of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform.  Revenues increased due to new business started during the year from new business bookings growth, an increase in the number of employees on our clients’ payrolls, and the impact of price increases.  Our worldwide client revenue retention rate in fiscal 2013 increased 40 basis points to 91.3% as compared to our rate in fiscal 2012 and our pays per control increased 2.8% in fiscal 2013

Earnings from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes

Employer Services’ earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increased $185.0 million, or 9%, to $2,134.2 million in fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  The increase was due to the increase in revenues of $525.5 million discussed above, which was partially offset by an increase in expenses of $340.5 million.  In addition to an increase in expenses related to increased revenues, expenses increased in fiscal 2013 due to investments in our salesforce and labor-related costs over the same period prior year levels coupled with the effects of acquisitions.  Overall margin increased approximately 60 basis points from 26.4% to 27.0% for fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012, and included the benefit of increased operating scale, offset by approximately 50 basis points of margin decline attributable to acquisitions.

Revenues

Employer Services' revenues increased $510.2 million, or 7%, to $7,388.5 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011.  Revenues for our Employer Services business would have increased approximately 6% without the impact of acquisitions and revenues pertaining to the sale of assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform.  Revenues increased due to new business started during the year from new business bookings growth, an increase in the number of employees on our clients' payrolls, and the impact of price increases.

Employer Services' earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increased $117.3 million, or 6%, to $1,949.2 million in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011. The increase was due to the increase in revenues of $510.2 million discussed above, which was partially offset by an increase in expenses of $392.9 million. In addition to an increase in expenses related to increased revenues, expenses increased for fiscal 2012 due to investments in salesforce associate headcount and labor-related costs over the same period prior year levels coupled with the effects of acquisitions.

Revenues

Dealer Services' revenues increased $152.4 million, or 9%, to $1,813.7 million for fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.  Revenues for our Dealer Services business would have increased approximately 8% without the impact of acquisitions due to new clients, improved client retention, and growth in our key products during fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012. Revenues increased due to new business started during the year from growth in new business bookings and increased users of our digital marketing solutions. We continue to see increased utilization of our credit report and vehicle registration transactions, consistent with the steady improvement of the North American new car market.

Earnings from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes

Dealer Services' earnings from continuing operations before income taxes increased $58.1 million, or 21%, to $335.7 million for fiscal 2013, as compared to fiscal 2012.

Overall margin increased approximately 140 basis points from 15.3% to 16.7% for fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011, which includes approximately 20 basis points of margin decrease related to acquisitions. In addition, overall margin increased approximately 50 basis points due to acquisition-related costs incurred during fiscal 2011 related to our acquisition of Cobalt in the prior year.

Other

The primary components of the “Other” segment are the results of operations of ADP Indemnity, non-recurring gains and losses, miscellaneous processing services, such as customer financing transactions, and certain charges and expenses that have not been allocated to the reportable segments, such as stock-based compensation expense and the goodwill impairment charge.

Stock-based compensation expense was $96.4 million, $94.1 million, and $90.3 million in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

ADP Indemnity provides workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees up to a $1 million per occurrence. PEO Services has secured specific per occurrence and aggregate stop loss insurance from a wholly-owned and regulated insurance carrier of AIG that covers all losses in excess of the $1 million per occurrence and also any aggregate losses within the $1 million retention that collectively exceed a certain level in each policy year. We utilize historical loss experience and actuarial judgment to determine the estimated claim liability for the PEO Services business. Premiums are charged to PEO Services to cover the claims expected to be incurred by the PEO Services' worksite employees. Changes in estimated ultimate incurred losses are recognized by ADP Indemnity. During fiscal 2013 ADP Indemnity paid a premium of $141.4 million to enter into a reinsurance arrangement with ACE American Insurance Company to cover substantially all losses incurred by ADP Indemnity for the fiscal 2013 policy year up to the $1 million per occurrence related to the workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees. ADP Indemnity paid a premium of $142.4 million in July 2013 to enter into a reinsurance agreement with ACE American Insurance Company to cover substantially all losses for the fiscal 2014 policy year on terms substantially similar to the fiscal 2013 reinsurance policy to cover losses up to the $1 million per occurrence related to the workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees.
 
Our net realized (gains) on the sale of available-for-sale securities, including impairment losses, were $(28.6) million, $(18.6) million, and $(34.4) million in each of fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

In fiscal 2013 we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $42.7 million related to our ADP AdvancedMD business which is part of the Employer Services segment. There were no goodwill impairment charges in fiscal 2012 and 2011.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2013, cash and marketable securities were $2,041.1 million, stockholders' equity was $6,189.9 million, and the ratio of long-term debt-to-equity was 0.2%.  Working capital before funds held for clients and client funds obligations at June 30, 2013 was $1,195.7 million, as compared to $1,337.0 million at June 30, 2012.  The decrease in working capital resulted from an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and outstanding obligations under reverse repurchase agreements, partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable, net.

Our principal sources of liquidity for operations are derived from cash generated through operations and through corporate cash and marketable securities on hand. We continued to generate positive cash flows from operations during fiscal 2013, and we held approximately $2.0 billion of cash and marketable securities at June 30, 2013.  We have the ability to borrow through our financing arrangements under our U.S. short-term commercial paper program and our U.S. and Canadian short-term reverse repurchase agreements to meet short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations. Of the cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities held at June 30, 2013, approximately $245.2 million and $0.7 million are classified as long-term marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents, respectively, and were pledged as collateral by our Canadian subsidiary to engage in reverse repurchase obligations, which were subsequently repaid on July 2, 2013. An additional $0.6 billion was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Amounts held by foreign subsidiaries, if repatriated to the U.S., would generally be subject to foreign withholding and U.S. income taxes, adjusted for foreign tax credits. Our intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund our U.S. operations.

Our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities, as reflected in the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows for the years ended 2013, 2012, and 2011, are summarized as follows:

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $1,577.2 million for fiscal 2013, as compared to $1,910.2 million provided by operating activities for fiscal 2012.  The decrease in net cash flows provided by operating activities was due to the payment of a premium of $141.4 million related to our fiscal 2013 reinsurance arrangement with ACE American Insurance Company, higher pension plan contributions of $43.7 million, a variance in the timing of tax-related net cash payments of $44.0 million, and an unfavorable change in the net components of working capital.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $1,578.4 million for fiscal 2013, as compared to net cash flows provided by investing activities of $3,243.6 million for fiscal 2012. The net change in cash used in investing activities is due to the timing of receipts and disbursements of restricted cash and cash equivalents held to satisfy client funds obligations of $5,016.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in the purchases of corporate and client funds marketable securities of $210.9 million, a decrease in cash used for business acquisitions of $223.7 million, and an increase in cash received from the sale of businesses included in discontinued operations of $161.4 million.

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $151.0 million for fiscal 2013 as compared to net cash flows used in financing activities of $4,953.9 million for fiscal 2012.  The net change in cash provided by financing activities is due to the net change in client funds obligations of $4,865.1 million as a result of the timing of cash received and payments made related to client funds, partially offset by an increase in dividends paid to our shareholders of $65.8 million.
    
We purchased approximately 10.4 million shares of our common stock at an average price per share of $61.89 during fiscal 2013 compared to purchases of 14.6 million shares at an average price per share of $51.26 during fiscal 2012.  From time to time, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock under its authorized share repurchase programs.  The Company considers several factors in determining when to execute share repurchases, including, among other things, actual

28



and potential acquisition activity, cash balances and cash flows, issuances due to employee benefit plan activity, and market conditions. 

Our U.S. short-term funding requirements related to client funds are sometimes obtained through a short-term commercial paper program, which provides for the issuance of up to $6.75 billion in aggregate maturity value of commercial paper, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities.  In August 2013, the Company increased the U.S. short-term commercial paper program to provide for the issuance of up to $7.25 billion in aggregate maturity value. Our commercial paper program is rated A-1+ by Standard and Poor’s and Prime-1 by Moody’s.  These ratings denote the highest quality commercial paper securities.  Maturities of commercial paper can range from overnight to up to 364 days.  For fiscal 2013 and 2012, our average borrowings were $2.4 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, at weighted average interest rate of 0.2% and 0.1%, respectively. The weighted average maturity of the Company’s commercial paper during fiscal 2013 approximated two days.  We have successfully borrowed through the use of our commercial paper program on an as needed basis to meet short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations. At June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, we had no outstanding obligations under our short-term commercial paper program.

Our U.S. and Canadian short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations are sometimes obtained on a secured basis through the use of reverse repurchase agreements, which are collateralized principally by government and government agency securities, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities. These agreements generally have terms ranging from overnight to up to five business days. We have $3.0 billion available to us on a committed basis under these reverse repurchase agreements. We believe that we currently meet all conditions set forth in the committed reverse repurchase agreements to borrow thereunder, and we are not aware of any conditions that would prevent us from borrowing part or all of the $3.0 billion available to us under the committed reverse repurchase agreements.  We have successfully borrowed through the use of reverse repurchase agreements on an as needed basis to meet short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations. At June 30, 2013, we had $245.9 million of obligations outstanding related to reverse repurchase agreements, which were subsequently repaid on July 2, 2013. At June 30, 2012, we had no outstanding obligations under reverse repurchase agreements. For fiscal 2013 and 2012, we had average outstanding balances under reverse repurchase agreements of $362.0 million and $297.7 million, respectively, at weighted average interest rates of 0.7% and 0.6%, respectively.

We have a $2.0 billion, 364-day credit agreement with a group of lenders that matures in June 2014. In addition, we have a four-year $3.25 billion credit facility maturing in June 2015 that contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased by $500.0 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments. We also have an existing $2.0 billion five-year credit facility that matures in June 2018 that also contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased by $500.0 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments. The interest rate applicable to committed borrowings is tied to LIBOR, the federal funds effective rate, or the prime rate depending on the notification provided by the Company to the syndicated financial institutions prior to borrowing.  The Company is also required to pay facility fees on the credit agreements. The primary uses of the credit facilities are to provide liquidity to the commercial paper program and funding for general corporate purposes, if necessary.  We had no borrowings through June 30, 2013 under the credit agreements. We believe that we currently meet all conditions set forth in the revolving credit agreements to borrow thereunder, and we are not aware of any conditions that would prevent us from borrowing part or all of the $7.25 billion available to us under the revolving credit agreements.

Our investment portfolio does not contain any asset-backed securities with underlying collateral of subprime mortgages, alternative-A mortgages, sub-prime auto loans or sub-prime home equity loans, collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, credit default swaps, asset-backed commercial paper, derivatives, auction rate securities, structured investment vehicles or non-investment grade fixed-income securities. We own AAA rated senior tranches of fixed rate credit card, auto loan, rate reduction, and other asset-backed securities, secured predominately by prime collateral.  All collateral on asset-backed securities is performing as expected.  In addition, we own senior debt directly issued by Federal Home Loan Banks and Federal Farm Credit Banks.  We do own mortgage-backed securities, which represent an undivided beneficial ownership interest in a group or pool of one or more residential mortgages.  These securities are collateralized by the cash flows of 15-year and 30-year residential mortgages and are guaranteed by Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation as to the timely payment of principal and interest.  Our client funds investment strategy is structured to allow us to average our way through an interest rate cycle by laddering the maturities of our investments out to five years (in the case of the extended portfolio) and out to ten years (in the case of the long portfolio).  This investment strategy is supported by our short-term financing arrangements necessary to satisfy short-term funding requirements relating to client funds obligations.

Capital expenditures for continuing operations in fiscal 2013 were $174.8 million, as compared to $146.2 million in fiscal 2012 and $184.8 million in fiscal 2011. The capital expenditures in fiscal 2013 related to our data center and other facility improvements made to support our operations. We expect capital expenditures in fiscal 2014 to be between $190 million and $210 million.

(1)
These amounts represent the principal repayments of our debt and are included on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The estimated interest payments due by the corresponding period above are $0.6 million, $0.9 million, $0.3 million, and $0.0 million, respectively, which have been excluded.

(2)
Included in these amounts are various facilities and equipment leases and software license agreements. We enter into operating leases in the normal course of business relating to facilities and equipment, as well as the licensing of software. The majority of our lease agreements have fixed payment terms based on the passage of time. Certain facility and equipment leases require payment of maintenance and real estate taxes and contain escalation provisions based on future adjustments in price indices. Our future operating lease obligations could change if we exit certain contracts or if we enter into additional operating lease agreements.

(3)
Purchase obligations are comprised of a $142.4 million reinsurance premium with ACE American Insurance Company for the fiscal 2014 policy year, as well as obligations related to purchase and maintenance agreements on our software, equipment, and other assets.

(4)
We made the determination that net cash payments expected to be paid within the next 12 months, related to unrecognized tax benefits of $70.7 million at June 30, 2013, are expected to be up to $3 million. We are unable to make reasonably reliable estimates as to the period beyond the next 12 months in which cash payments related to unrecognized tax benefits are expected to be paid.

(5)
Compensation and benefits primarily relates to amounts associated with our employee benefit plans and other compensation arrangements.  These amounts exclude the estimated contributions to our defined benefit plans, which are expected to be $83.7 million in fiscal 2014. 

(6)
Acquisition-related obligations relate to deferred purchase consideration payments at future dates. A liability is established at the time of the acquisition for these fixed payments.

In addition to the obligations quantified in the table above, we had obligations for the remittance of funds relating to our payroll and payroll tax filing services. As of June 30, 2013, the obligations relating to these matters, which are expected to be paid in fiscal 2014, total $21,956.3 million and were recorded in client funds obligations on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We had $22,228.8 million of cash and marketable securities that have been impounded from our clients to satisfy such obligations recorded in funds held for clients on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2013.

ADP Indemnity provides workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees up to a $1 million per occurrence. PEO Services has secured specific per occurrence and aggregate stop loss insurance from a wholly-owned and regulated insurance carrier of AIG that covers all losses in excess of the $1 million per occurrence and also any aggregate losses within the $1 million retention that collectively exceed a certain level in each policy year. Should AIG and its wholly-owned insurance company be unable to satisfy their contractual obligations, ADP would become responsible for satisfying these worksite employee workers' compensation obligations. We utilize historical loss experience and actuarial judgment to determine the estimated claim liability for the PEO Services

business. Premiums are charged to PEO Services to cover the claims expected to be incurred by the PEO Services' worksite employees. Changes in estimated ultimate incurred losses are recognized by ADP Indemnity. ADP Indemnity paid a premium of $142.4 million in July 2013 to enter into a reinsurance agreement with ACE American Insurance Company to cover substantially all losses for the fiscal 2014 policy year on terms substantially similar to the fiscal 2013 reinsurance policy to cover losses up to the $1 million per occurrence related to the workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees. At June 30, 2013, ADP Indemnity's total assets were $329.4 million to satisfy the actuarially estimated unpaid losses of $268.9 million for the policy years since July 1, 2003. ADP Indemnity paid claims of $59.5 million, net of insurance recoveries, in fiscal 2013, and in fiscal 2012, paid claims of $64.1 million.

In the normal course of business, we also enter into contracts in which we make representations and warranties that relate to the performance of our services and products. We do not expect any material losses related to such representations and warranties.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our overall investment portfolio is comprised of corporate investments (cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, and long-term marketable securities) and client funds assets (funds that have been collected from clients but not yet remitted to the applicable tax authorities or client employees).

Our corporate investments are invested in cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid, investment-grade marketable securities.  These assets are available for repurchases of common stock for treasury and/or acquisitions, as well as other corporate operating purposes.  All of our short-term and long-term fixed-income securities are classified as available-for-sale securities.

Our client funds assets are invested with safety of principal, liquidity, and diversification as the primary goals. Consistent with those goals, we also seek to maximize interest income and to minimize the volatility of interest income.  Client funds assets are invested in highly liquid, investment-grade marketable securities, with a maximum maturity of 10 years at the time of purchase and money market securities and other cash equivalents.  At June 30, 2013, approximately 91% of the available-for-sale securities categorized as U.S. Treasury and direct obligations of U.S. government agencies were invested in senior, unsecured, non-callable debt directly issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks and Federal Farm Credit Banks.
    
We utilize a strategy by which we extend the maturities of our investment portfolio for funds held for clients and employ short-term financing arrangements to satisfy our short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations.  Our client funds investment strategy is structured to allow us to average our way through an interest rate cycle by laddering the maturities of our investments out to five years (in the case of the extended portfolio) and out to ten years (in the case of the long portfolio).  As part of our client funds investment strategy, we use the daily collection of funds from our clients to satisfy other unrelated client funds obligations, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities.  We minimize the risk of not having funds collected from a client available at the time such client’s obligation becomes due by impounding, in virtually all instances, the client’s funds in advance of the timing of payment of such client’s obligation.  As a result of this practice, we have consistently maintained the required level of client funds assets to satisfy all of our obligations.

There are inherent risks and uncertainties involving our investment strategy relating to our client funds assets.  Such risks include liquidity risk, including the risk associated with our ability to liquidate, if necessary, our available-for-sale securities in a timely manner in order to satisfy our client funds obligations.  However, our investments are made with the safety of principal, liquidity, and diversification as the primary goals to minimize the risk of not having sufficient funds to satisfy all of our client funds obligations.  We also believe we have significantly reduced the risk of not having sufficient funds to satisfy our client funds obligations by consistently maintaining access to other sources of liquidity, including our corporate cash balances, available borrowings under our $6.75 billion commercial paper program (rated A-1+ by Standard and Poor’s and Prime-1 (P1) by Moody’s, the highest possible credit ratings), our ability to execute reverse repurchase transactions ($3.0 billion of which is available on a committed basis), and available borrowings under our $7.25 billion committed revolving credit facilities. In August 2013, the Company increased the U.S. short-term commercial paper program to provide for the issuance of up to $7.25 billion in aggregate maturity value. The reduced availability of financing during periods of economic turmoil, even to borrowers with the highest credit ratings, may limit our ability to access short-term debt markets to meet the liquidity needs of our business.  In addition to liquidity risk, our investments are subject to interest rate risk and credit risk, as discussed below.


31



We have established credit quality, maturity, and exposure limits for our investments.  The minimum allowed credit rating at time of purchase for corporate and Canadian provincial bonds is BBB, for asset-backed securities is AAA, and for municipal bonds is A.  The maximum maturity at time of purchase for BBB rated securities is 5 years, for single A rated securities is 7 years, and for AA rated and AAA rated securities is 10 years. Time deposits and commercial paper must be rated A-1 and/or P-1. Money market funds must be rated AAA/Aaa-mf.

We are exposed to interest rate risk in relation to securities that mature, as the proceeds from maturing securities are reinvested.  Factors that influence the earnings impact of the interest rate changes include, among others, the amount of invested funds and the overall portfolio mix between short-term and long-term investments.  This mix varies during the fiscal year and is impacted by daily interest rate changes.  The annualized interest rates earned on our entire portfolio decreased approximately 60 basis points, from 2.6% for fiscal 2012 to 2.1% for fiscal 2013.  A hypothetical change in both short-term interest rates (e.g., overnight interest rates or the federal funds rate) and intermediate-term interest rates of 25 basis points applied to the estimated average investment balances and any related short-term borrowings would result in approximately a $6 million impact to earnings from continuing operations before income taxes over the ensuing twelve-month period ending June 30, 2014.  A hypothetical change in only short-term interest rates of 25 basis points applied to the estimated average short-term investment balances and any related short-term borrowings would result in approximately a $3 million impact to earnings from continuing operations before income taxes over the ensuing twelve-month period ending June 30, 2014.

We are exposed to credit risk in connection with our available-for-sale securities through the possible inability of the borrowers to meet the terms of the securities.  We limit credit risk by investing in investment-grade securities, primarily AAA and AA rated securities, as rated by Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s, and for Canadian securities, Dominion Bond Rating Service. Approximately 83% of our available-for-sale securities held a AAA or AA rating at June 30, 2013.  In addition, we limit amounts that can be invested in any security other than U.S. and Canadian government or government agency securities.

We operate and transact business in various foreign jurisdictions and are therefore exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.  We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments.  We use derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for trading purposes.

During fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, Dealer Services earned 12.1%, 10.7%, and 8.8%, respectively, of its segment revenues from continuing operations from one client. We did not have any customers that individually accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue from continuing operations.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2012, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net earnings, and other comprehensive income. The Company has elected to present net earnings and other comprehensive income on two separate, but consecutive statements. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

In July 2012, the Company adopted ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value based upon the qualitative assessment, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU 2011-08 does not change how goodwill is calculated or assigned to reporting units, nor does it revise the requirement to test goodwill annually for impairment. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, other comprehensive income, or cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  ASU 2013-02 requires entities to disclose the amount of income (loss) reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income to each respective line item on the income statement. The guidance allows companies to elect whether to disclose the reclassification either on the face of the income statement or in the notes to the financial statements, including cross-referencing other disclosures which provide additional details about these amounts.  ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012.  The adoption of ASU 2013-02 will not have an impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition. Our revenues are primarily attributable to fees for providing services (e.g., Employer Services' payroll processing fees) as well as investment income on payroll funds, payroll tax filing funds and other Employer Services' client-related funds. We enter into agreements for a fixed fee per transaction (e.g., number of payees or number of payrolls processed). Fees associated with services are recognized in the period services are rendered and earned under service arrangements with clients where service fees are fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Our service fees are determined based on written price quotations or service agreements having stipulated terms and conditions that do not require management to make any significant judgments or assumptions regarding any potential uncertainties. Interest income on collected but not yet remitted funds held for clients is recognized in revenues as earned, as the collection, holding, and remittance of these funds are critical components of providing these services.
 

33



We also recognize revenues associated with the sale of software systems and associated software licenses (e.g., Dealer Services' dealer management systems). For a majority of our software sales arrangements, which provide hardware, software licenses, installation, and post-contract customer support, revenues are recognized ratably over the software license term, as vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of the individual elements in the sales arrangement does not exist. Changes to the elements in an arrangement and the ability to establish vendor-specific objective evidence for those elements could affect the timing of the revenue recognition.

We assess collectability of our revenues based primarily on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer's payment history. We do not believe that a change in our assumptions utilized in the collectability determination would result in a material change to revenues as no single customer accounts for a significant portion of our revenues.

Goodwill. We account for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350-10, which states that goodwill should not be amortized, but instead tested for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We perform this impairment test by first comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying value for a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we then compare the implied fair value of our goodwill to the carrying amount in order to determine the amount of the impairment, if any. We determine the fair value of our reporting units using an equal weighted blended approach, which combines the income approach, which is the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at a risk-adjusted weighted-average cost of capital; and the market approach, which is based on using market multiples of companies in similar lines of business. Significant assumptions used in determining the fair value of our reporting units include projected revenue growth rates, profitability projections, working capital assumptions, the weighted average cost of capital, the determination of appropriate market comparison companies, and terminal growth rates. We had $3,052.6 million of goodwill as of June 30, 2013. Based on the fair value analysis completed in the fourth quarter of 2013, management concluded that fair value exceeded carrying value for all reporting units, with the exception of the ADP AdvancedMD reporting unit, for which an impairment charge of $42.7 million was recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. In completing the annual impairment test for fiscal 2013, we evaluated the reasonableness of differences noted between the fair value and carrying value of each reporting unit. Given the significance of our goodwill, an adverse change to the fair value of goodwill and intangible assets could result in an impairment charge which could be material to our consolidated earnings if we are unable to generate the anticipated revenue growth, synergies and/or cost savings associated with our acquisitions.

Income Taxes. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements or tax returns (e.g., realization of deferred tax assets, changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof). In addition, we are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the IRS and other tax authorities. A change in the assessment of the outcomes of such matters could materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

There is a financial statement recognition threshold and measurement attribute for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Specifically, the likelihood of an entity's tax benefits being sustained must be “more likely than not” assuming that those positions will be examined by taxing authorities with full knowledge of all relevant information prior to recording the related tax benefit in the financial statements. If a tax position drops below the “more likely than not” standard, the benefit can no longer be recognized. Assumptions, judgment and the use of estimates are required in determining if the “more likely than not” standard has been met when developing the provision for income taxes. A change in the assessment of the “more likely than not” standard could materially impact our consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company's liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, which include interest and penalties, were $70.7 million and $84.7 million, respectively.

If certain pending tax matters settle within the next twelve months, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease for all open tax years and jurisdictions. Based on current estimates, settlements related to various jurisdictions and tax periods could increase earnings up to $15 million in the next twelve months. Audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty. We continually assess the likelihood and amount of potential adjustments and adjust the income tax provision, the current tax liability and deferred taxes in the period in which the facts that give rise to a revision become known.

Stock-Based Compensation. We measure stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. We determine the fair value of stock options issued by using a binomial option-pricing model. The binomial option-pricing model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate and employee

34



exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial option-pricing model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of our stock price and other factors. Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The binomial option-pricing model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected life of the stock option grants is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Determining these assumptions is subjective and complex, and therefore, a change in the assumptions utilized could impact the calculation of the fair value of our stock options.

Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Automatic Data Processing, Inc.
Roseland, New Jersey
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of consolidated earnings, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013. Our audits also included the consolidated financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) 2. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the consolidated financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated August 19, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Automatic Data Processing, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Basis of Preparation. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“ADP” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses, and accumulated other comprehensive income that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

B. Description of Business. The Company is a provider of technology-based outsourcing solutions to employers and vehicle retailers and manufacturers. The Company classifies its operations into the following reportable segments: Employer Services, Professional Employer Organization (“PEO”) Services, and Dealer Services. The primary components of the “Other” segment are the results of operations of ADP Indemnity (a wholly-owned captive insurance company that provides workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees), non-recurring gains and losses, miscellaneous processing services, such as customer financing transactions, and certain charges and expenses that have not been allocated to the reportable segments, such as stock-based compensation expense and the goodwill impairment charge.

C. Revenue Recognition. Revenues are primarily attributable to fees for providing services (e.g., Employer Services' payroll processing fees) as well as investment income on payroll funds, payroll tax filing funds and other Employer Services' client-related funds. The Company enters into agreements for a fixed fee per transaction (e.g., number of payees or number of payrolls processed). Fees associated with services are recognized in the period services are rendered and earned under service arrangements with clients where service fees are fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Service fees are determined based on written price quotations or service agreements having stipulated terms and conditions that do not require management to make any significant judgments or assumptions regarding any potential uncertainties.

Interest income on collected but not yet remitted funds held for clients is recognized in revenues as earned, as the collection, holding and remittance of these funds are critical components of providing these services.

The Company also recognizes revenues associated with the sale of software systems and associated software licenses (e.g., Dealer Services' dealer management systems). For a majority of our software sales arrangements, which provide hardware, software licenses, installation, and post-contract customer support, revenues are recognized ratably over the software license term, as vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of the individual elements in the sales arrangement does not exist.

The Company assesses the collectability of revenues based primarily on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer's payment history.

PEO revenues are reported on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings and are reported net of direct pass-through costs, which are costs billed and incurred for PEO Services worksite employees, primarily consisting of payroll wages and payroll taxes. Benefits, workers' compensation, and state unemployment tax fees for worksite employees are included in PEO revenues and the associated costs are included in operating expenses.

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Investment securities with a maturity of ninety days or less at the time of purchase are considered cash equivalents. The fair value of our cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value.

E. Corporate Investments and Funds Held for Clients. All of the Company's marketable securities are considered to be “available-for-sale” and, accordingly, are carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific-identification basis and are included in other income, net on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.


41


If the fair value of an available-for-sale debt security is below its amortized cost, the Company assesses whether it intends to sell the security or if it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery. If either of those two conditions were met, the Company would recognize a charge in earnings equal to the entire difference between the security's amortized cost basis and its fair value. If the Company does not intend to sell a security or it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery, the unrealized loss is separated into an amount representing the credit loss, which is recognized in earnings, and the amount related to all other factors, which is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related available-for-sale security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.
F. Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is based upon the Company’s principal or most advantageous market for a specific asset or liability.

U.S. GAAP provides for a three-level hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, defined as follows:

Level 1 Fair value is determined based upon quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities that are traded in active markets.

Level 2 Fair value is determined based upon inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, including:
· quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
· quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;
· inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or
· inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Fair value is determined based upon inputs that are unobservable and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based upon the best information available in the circumstances (e.g., internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows).

Available-for-sale securities included in Level 1 are valued using closing prices for identical instruments that are traded on active exchanges. Over 99% of the Company's available-for-sale securities included in Level 2 are valued utilizing inputs obtained from an independent pricing service. To determine the fair value of the Company's Level 2 investments, a variety of inputs are utilized, including benchmark yields, reported trades, non-binding broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, reference data, new issue data, and monthly payment information. The Company reviews the values generated by the independent pricing service for reasonableness by comparing the valuations received from the independent pricing service to valuations from at least one other observable source. The Company has not adjusted the prices obtained from the independent pricing service. The Company has no available-for-sale securities included in Level 3.

The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the classification of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. In certain instances, the inputs used to measure fair value may meet the definition of more than one level of the fair value hierarchy. The significant input with the lowest level priority is used to determine the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy.

G. Long-term Receivables. Long-term receivables relate to notes receivable from the sale of computer systems, primarily to auto, truck, motorcycle, marine, recreational vehicle, and heavy equipment retailers and manufacturers. Unearned income from finance receivables represents the excess of gross receivables over the sales price of the computer systems financed. Unearned income is amortized using the effective-interest method to maintain a constant rate of return over the term of each contract.
Notes receivable aged over 30 days past due are considered delinquent and notes receivable aged over 60 days past due with known collection issues are placed on non-accrual status. Interest revenue is not recognized on notes receivable while on non-accrual status.  Cash payments received on non-accrual receivables are applied towards the principal.  When notes receivable on non-accrual status are again less than 60 days past due, recognition of interest revenue for notes receivable is resumed.
The allowance for doubtful accounts on long-term receivables is the Company's best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses related to the Company's existing note receivables.

42


H. Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The estimated useful lives of assets are primarily as follows:
Data processing equipment
2 to 5 years
Buildings
20 to 40 years
Furniture and fixtures
3 to 7 years

I. Goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead tested for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company performs this impairment test by first comparing the fair value of each reporting units to its carrying amount. If the carrying value for a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company would then compare the implied fair value of goodwill to the carrying amount in order to determine the amount of the impairment, if any. The Company determines the estimated fair value of its reporting units using an equal weighted blended approach, which combines the income approach, which is the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at a risk-adjusted weighted-average cost of capital; and the market approach, which is based on using market multiples of companies in similar lines of business. Significant assumptions used in determining the fair value of our reporting units include projected revenue growth rates, profitability projections, working capital assumptions, the weighted average cost of capital, the determination of appropriate market comparison companies, and terminal growth rates. The Company had $3,052.6 million of goodwill as of June 30, 2013. Based on the fair value analysis completed in the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company concluded that goodwill was not impaired for any reporting units with the exception of the ADP AdvancedMD reporting unit, for which an impairment charge of $42.7 million was recorded.
    
J. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
K. Foreign Currency Translation. The net assets of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates in effect for each period, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in the periods. Gains or losses from balance sheet translation are included in accumulated other comprehensive income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Currency transaction gains or losses, which are included in the results of operations, are immaterial for all periods presented.

L. Foreign Currency Risk Management Programs and Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company transacts business in various foreign jurisdictions and is therefore exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could impact its consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.  The Company manages its exposure to these market risks through its regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments.  The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.  

Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value and are recognized as assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in the fair value of the derivatives recognized in either net earnings from continuing operations or accumulated other comprehensive income, depending on the timing and designated purpose of the derivative.

There were no derivative financial instruments outstanding at June 30, 2013 or June 30, 2012.

Options to purchase 1.2 million, 0.9 million, and 0.9 million shares of common stock for the year ended June 30, 2013 ("fiscal 2013"), the year ended June 30, 2012 ("fiscal 2012"), and the year ended June 30, 2011 ("fiscal 2011"), respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their exercise prices exceeded the average market price of outstanding common shares for the respective periods.

N. Stock-Based Compensation. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in net earnings based on the fair value of the award on the date of the grant. The Company determines the fair value of stock options issued using a binomial option-pricing model. The binomial option-pricing model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate, and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial option-pricing model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of the Company's stock price, and other factors. Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The binomial option-pricing model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected life of a stock option grant is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.

O. Internal Use Software. Expenditures for major software purchases and software developed or obtained for internal use are capitalized and amortized over a three- to five-year period on a straight-line basis. The Company's policy provides for the capitalization of external direct costs of materials and services associated with developing or obtaining internal use computer software. In addition, the Company also capitalizes certain payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with internal use computer software projects. The amount of capitalizable payroll costs with respect to these employees is limited to the time directly spent on such projects. Costs associated with preliminary project stage activities, training, maintenance, and all other post-implementation stage activities are expensed as incurred. The Company also expenses internal costs related to minor upgrades and enhancements, as it is impractical to separate these costs from normal maintenance activities.

P. Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. The Company capitalizes certain costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed. The Company's policy provides for the capitalization of all software production costs upon reaching technological feasibility for a specific product. Technological feasibility is attained when software products have a completed working model whose consistency with the overall product design has been confirmed by testing. Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. The establishment of technological feasibility requires judgment by management and in many instances is only attained a short time prior to the

44


general release of the software. Upon the general release of the software product to customers, capitalization ceases and such costs are amortized over a three-year period on a straight-line basis. Maintenance-related costs are expensed as incurred.

Q. Income Taxes. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns. The Company is subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities.

There is a financial statement recognition threshold and measurement attribute for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Specifically, the likelihood of an entity's tax benefits being sustained must be “more likely than not,” assuming that these positions will be examined by taxing authorities with full knowledge of all relevant information prior to recording the related tax benefit in the financial statements. If a tax position drops below the “more likely than not” standard, the benefit can no longer be recognized. Assumptions, judgment, and the use of estimates are required in determining if the “more likely than not” standard has been met when developing the provision for income taxes. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company's liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, which include interest and penalties, were $70.7 million, and $84.7 million, respectively.

If certain pending tax matters settle within the next twelve months, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease for all open tax years and jurisdictions. Based on current estimates, settlements related to various jurisdictions and tax periods could increase earnings up to $15 million. Audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty. We continually assess the likelihood and amount of potential adjustments and adjust the income tax provision, the current tax liability, and deferred taxes in the period in which the facts that give rise to a revision become known.

R. Workers' Compensation Costs. The Company employs a third party actuary to assist in determining the estimated claim liability related to workers' compensation and employer's liability coverage for PEO Services worksite employees. In estimating ultimate loss rates, we utilize historical loss experience, exposure data, and actuarial judgment, together with a range of inputs which are primarily based upon the worksite employee's job responsibilities, their location, the historical frequency and severity of workers' compensation claims, and an estimate of future cost trends. For each reporting period, changes in the actuarial assumptions resulting from changes in actual claims experience and other trends are incorporated into our workers' compensation claims cost estimates. The Company has secured specific per occurrence insurance that caps the exposure for each claim at $1 million per occurrence, and has also secured aggregate stop loss insurance that caps aggregate losses at a certain level in each policy year. Additionally, for fiscal 2013, the Company entered into a reinsurance arrangement to cover substantially all losses incurred by the Company for the fiscal 2013 policy year up to the $1 million per occurrence related to workers' compensation and employer's liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO services worksite employees.

S. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In July 2012, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net earnings and other comprehensive income. The Company has elected to present net earnings and other comprehensive income on two separate, but consecutive statements. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

In July 2012, the Company adopted ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value based upon the qualitative assessment, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU 2011-08 does not change how goodwill is calculated or assigned to reporting units, nor does it revise the requirement to test goodwill annually for impairment. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, other comprehensive income, or cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  ASU 2013-02 requires entities to disclose the amount of income (loss) reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income to each respective line item on the income statement. The guidance allows companies to elect whether to disclose the reclassification either on the face of the income statement or in the notes to the financial statements, including cross-referencing other disclosures which provide additional details about these amounts.  ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15,

45


2012.  The adoption of ASU 2013-02 will not have an impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

During fiscal 2013, the Company completed the sale of two buildings that were previously classified as assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and, as a result, recorded gains of $2.2 million in other income, net, on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.

During fiscal 2012, the Company sold assets related to rights and obligations to resell a third-party expense management platform, and, as a result, recorded a gain of $66.0 million in other income, net, on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.

During fiscal 2012, the Company completed the sale of two buildings for their combined carrying value of $6.9 million, net of selling costs. The Company had previously classified these assets as assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and recognized impairment losses within other income, net on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings of $2.2 million and $11.7 million in fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively. During fiscal year 2011, the Company sold buildings that were previously classified as assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and, as a result, recorded net gains of $1.8 million, in other income, net on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.
 
During fiscal 2012, the Company concluded that it had the intent to sell certain available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses of $5.8 million. As such, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $5.8 million in other income, net, on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings. As of June 30, 2012, all such securities had been sold.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations were recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition dates based upon their estimated fair values at such dates.  The results of operations of businesses acquired by the Company have been included in the Statements of Consolidated Earnings since their respective dates of acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill.  In certain circumstances, the allocations of the excess purchase price are based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions and subject to revision when the Company receives final information, including appraisals and other analysis.  Accordingly, the measurement period for such purchase price allocations will end when the information, or the facts and circumstances, becomes available, but will not exceed twelve months.

The Company acquired two businesses during fiscal 2013 for approximately $40.4 million, net of cash acquired. These acquisitions resulted in approximately $29.5 million of goodwill. Intangible assets acquired, which total approximately $13.5 million for these two acquisitions, included customer contracts and lists and software that are being amortized over a weighted average life of approximately 8 years. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had not yet finalized the purchase price allocation for these two acquisitions.


46



The Company acquired seven businesses in fiscal 2012 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $292.3 million, net of cash acquired. These acquisitions resulted in approximately $182.6 million of goodwill. Intangible assets acquired, which total approximately $90.0 million for these seven acquisitions, included customer contracts and lists, software, and trademarks that are being amortized over a weighted average life of approximately 11 years. The Company finalized the purchase price allocation for these seven acquisitions during fiscal 2013 and adjusted the preliminary values allocated to certain assets and liabilities in order to reflect final information received.

The Company acquired nine businesses in fiscal 2011 for approximately $776.1 million, net of cash acquired.  These acquisitions resulted in approximately $543.6 million of goodwill. Intangible assets acquired, which totaled approximately $246.4 million for these nine acquisitions, included customer contracts and lists, software and trademarks that are being amortized over a weighted average life of approximately 12 years.  The Company finalized the purchase price allocation for these nine acquisitions during fiscal 2012 and adjusted the preliminary values allocated to certain assets and liabilities in order to reflect final information received. 

The Company reviews estimates of the fair value of contingent consideration ("earn-out") expected to be paid in the event that certain performance metrics are achieved over an earn-out period and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances warrant. The Company made contingent payments relating to previously consummated acquisitions of $14.5 million, $2.8 million, and $0.8 million during fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011.

The acquisitions discussed above for fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011 were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Company's operations, financial position, or cash flows.

NOTE 6. RECEIVABLES

Accounts receivable, net, includes the Company's trade receivables, which are recorded based upon the amount the Company expects to receive from its clients, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company's receivables also include notes receivable for the financing of the sale of computer systems, primarily from auto, truck, motorcycle, marine, recreational vehicle, and heavy equipment retailers and manufacturers. Notes receivable are recorded based upon the amount the Company

51



expects to receive from its clients, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts and unearned income. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company's best estimate of probable credit losses related to trade receivables and notes receivable based upon the aging of the receivables, historical collection data, internal assessments of credit quality and the economic conditions in the automobile industry, as well as in the economy as a whole. The Company charges off uncollectable amounts against the reserve in the period in which it determines they are uncollectable. Unearned income on notes receivable is amortized using the effective interest method.

The Company’s receivables, whose carrying value approximates fair value, are as follows:

The allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of notes receivable was approximately 6% as of June 30, 2013 and 6% as of June 30, 2012.

On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the credit quality of its financing receivables, utilizing aging of receivables, collection experience and charge-offs.  In addition, the Company evaluates economic conditions in the auto industry and specific dealership matters, such as bankruptcy.  As events related to a specific client dictate, the credit quality of a client is reevaluated. Approximately 100% of notes receivable were current at June 30, 2013 and 2012.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $42.7 million related to the ADP AdvancedMD reporting unit. The goodwill impairment was due to a decrease in the estimated fair value of the business resulting from a decline in the sales growth and profitability projections of the business.

The remeasurement of goodwill is classified as a Level 3 fair value assessment due to the significance of unobservable inputs developed using Company-specific information. The Company determined the fair value utilizing the income approach and the market approach. Under the income approach, the Company calculated the fair value based on the present value of the estimated cash flows. Cash flow projections were based on management's estimates of revenue growth rates and net operating income margins, taking into consideration market and industry conditions. The discount rate used is based on the weighted-average cost of capital adjusted for the risk, size premium, and business specific characteristics related to the business's ability to execute on the projected cash flows. Under the market approach, the Company evaluated the fair value based on market multiples of revenue and earnings derived from comparable publicly-traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics as the reporting unit. The unobservable inputs used to measure the fair value included projected revenue growth rates, profitability projections, working capital assumptions, the weighted average cost of capital, the determination of appropriate market comparison companies, and terminal growth rates.

Because the annual impairment test indicated that ADP AdvancedMD's carrying value exceeded its estimated fair value, a second phase of the goodwill impairment test ("Step 2") was performed specific to this business. Under Step 2, the fair values of all assets and liabilities were estimated, including tangible assets, existing technology, customer lists, and trademarks for the purpose of deriving an estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill was then compared to the recorded goodwill to determine the amount of impairment. Assumptions used in measuring the value of these assets and liabilities included the discount rates, royalty rates, and attrition rates used in valuing the intangible assets. Upon completion of the annual test, the ADP AdvancedMD reporting unit was determined to be impaired. ADP AdvancedMD is currently reported in our Employer Services segment.

There were no accumulated goodwill impairments as of the beginning of fiscal 2013.

NOTE 9. SHORT TERM FINANCING

The Company has a $2.0 billion, 364-day credit agreement with a group of lenders that matures in June 2014.  In addition, the Company has a four-year $3.25 billion credit facility maturing in June 2015 that contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased by $500.0 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments.  The Company also has an existing $2.0 billion five-year credit facility that matures in June 2018 that also contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased by $500.0 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments.  The interest rate applicable to committed borrowings is tied to LIBOR, the federal funds effective rate, or the prime rate depending on the notification provided by the Company to the syndicated financial institutions prior to borrowing.  The Company is also required to pay facility fees on the credit agreements.  The primary uses of the credit facilities are to provide liquidity to the commercial paper program and funding for general corporate purposes, if necessary.  The Company had no borrowings through June 30, 2013 under the credit agreements.

The Company’s U.S. short-term funding requirements related to client funds are sometimes obtained through a short-term commercial paper program, which provides for the issuance of up to $6.75 billion in aggregate maturity value of commercial paper, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities. In August 2013, the Company increased the U.S. short-term commercial paper program to provide for the issuance of up to $7.25 billion in aggregate maturity value. The Company’s commercial paper program is rated A-1+ by Standard and Poor’s and Prime-1 by Moody’s.  These ratings denote the highest quality commercial paper securities.  Maturities of commercial paper can range from overnight to up to 364 days.  At June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no commercial paper outstanding.  In fiscal 2013 and 2012, the Company's average borrowings were $2.4 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, at weighted average interest rates of 0.2% and 0.1%, respectively. The weighted average maturity of the Company’s commercial paper in fiscal 2013 and 2012 approximated two days.

The Company’s U.S. and Canadian short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations are sometimes obtained on a secured basis through the use of reverse repurchase agreements, which are collateralized principally by government and government agency securities, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities.  These agreements generally have terms ranging from overnight to up to five business days.  The Company has $3.0 billion available to it on a committed basis under these reverse repurchase agreements. At June 30, 2013, the Company had $245.9 million of obligations outstanding related to reverse repurchase agreements, which were subsequently repaid on July 2, 2013. At June 30, 2012, there were no outstanding obligations under reverse repurchase agreements. In fiscal 2013 and 2012, the Company had average outstanding balances under reverse repurchase agreements of $362.0 million and $297.7 million, respectively, at weighted average interest rates of 0.7% and 0.6%, respectively.


NOTE 10. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

A.  Stock-based Compensation Plans.  Stock-based compensation consists of the following:

Stock Options.  Stock options are granted to employees at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the dates of grant.  Stock options are issued under a graded vesting schedule and have a term of 10 years.  Options granted prior to July 1, 2008 generally vest ratably over five years and options granted after July 1, 2008 generally vest ratably over four years.  Compensation expense is measured based on the fair value of the stock option on the grant date and recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the stock option award. Stock options are forfeited if the employee ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting.


55



Restricted Stock.
Time-Based Restricted Stock and Time-Based Restricted Stock Units. Time-based restricted stock and restricted stock units granted prior to fiscal 2013 are subject to vesting periods of up to five years and awards granted during fiscal 2013 are subject to a vesting period of two years. Awards are forfeited if the employee ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting.

Time-based restricted stock cannot be transferred during the vesting period. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of time-based restricted stock is measured based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Employees are eligible to receive dividends on shares awarded under the time-based restricted stock program.

Time-based restricted stock units are settled in cash. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of time-based restricted stock units is recorded over the vesting period and is initially based on the fair value of the award on the grant date; and is subsequently remeasured at each reporting date during the vesting period. No dividend equivalents are paid on units awarded under the time-based restricted stock unit program.
 
Performance-Based Restricted Stock and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. Performance-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units generally vest over a one year performance period and a subsequent service period ranging from 6 months to 26 months. Under these programs, the Company communicates "target awards" at the beginning of the performance period with possible payouts at the end of the performance period ranging from 0% to 150% of the "target awards." Awards are forfeited if the employee ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting.

Performance-based restricted stock cannot be transferred during the vesting period. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of performance-based restricted stock is measured based upon the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based upon the probability that the performance target will be met. After the performance period, if the performance targets are achieved, employees are eligible to receive dividends on shares awarded under the performance-based restricted stock program.

Performance-based restricted stock units are settled in cash. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of performance-based restricted stock units is recorded over the vesting period and is initially based on the fair value of the award on the grant date; and is subsequently remeasured at each reporting date during the one-year performance period, based upon the probability that the performance target will be met. No dividend equivalents are paid on awards under the performance-based restricted stock unit program.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan.  The Company offers an employee stock purchase plan that allows eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock at a price equal to 95% of the market value for the Company's common stock on the last day of the offering period.  This plan has been deemed non-compensatory and therefore, no compensation expense has been recorded.

The Company currently utilizes treasury stock to satisfy stock option exercises, issuances under the Company's employee stock purchase plan, and restricted stock awards.  From time to time, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock under its authorized share repurchase programs.  The Company repurchased 10.4 million shares in fiscal 2013 as compared to 14.6 million shares repurchased in fiscal 2012. The Company considers several factors in determining when to execute share repurchases, including, among other things, actual and potential acquisition activity, cash balances and cash flows, issuances due to employee benefit plan activity, and market conditions. Cash payments related to the settlement of vested time-based restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units were approximately $17.8 million, $15.4 million, and $10.3 million during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011.

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and exercisable as of June 30, 2013 was $276.8 million and $242.7 million, respectively, which has a remaining life of 4.6 years and 3.4 years, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value for stock options exercised in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011 was $135.1 million, $83.8 million, and $95.7 million, respectively.

57




The fair value of each stock option issued is estimated on the date of grant using a binomial option pricing model.  The binomial model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, risk-free interest rate, and employee exercise behavior.  Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of the Company’s stock price, and other factors.  Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  The binomial model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data.  The expected life of the stock option grant is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.

The fair value for stock options granted was estimated at the date of grant using the following assumptions:

B.  Pension Plans

The Company has a defined benefit cash balance pension plan covering substantially all U.S. employees, under which employees are credited with a percentage of base pay plus interest. The plan interest credit rate varies from year-to-year based on the ten-year U.S. Treasury rate. Employees are fully vested upon completion of three years of service. The Company's policy is to make contributions within the range determined by generally accepted actuarial principles. In addition, the Company has various retirement plans for its non-U.S. employees and maintains a Supplemental Officers Retirement Plan (“SORP”). The SORP is a defined benefit plan pursuant to which the Company pays supplemental pension benefits to certain key officers upon retirement based upon the officers' years of service and compensation.

A June 30 measurement date was used in determining the Company's benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets.
The Company is required to (a) recognize in its Consolidated Balance Sheets an asset for a plan's net overfunded status or a liability for a plan's net underfunded status, (b) measure a plan's assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer's fiscal year, and (c) recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit plan in the year in which the changes occur in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The discount rate is based upon published rates for high-quality fixed-income investments that produce cash flows that approximate the timing and amount of expected future benefit payments.

The expected long-term rate of return on assets is determined based on historical and expected future rates of return on plan assets considering the target asset mix and the long-term investment strategy.

The Company's pension plans' asset investment strategy is designed to ensure prudent management of assets, consistent with long-term return objectives and the prompt fulfillment of all pension plan obligations. The investment strategy and asset mix were developed in coordination with an asset liability study conducted by external consultants to maximize the funded ratio

60



with the least amount of volatility. In fiscal 2013, the Company revised the target asset allocation of the U.S. pension plan to include global equities as a separate asset class to enhance the diversification of overall pension plan investments.

The pension plans' assets are currently invested in various asset classes with differing expected rates of return, correlations and volatilities, including large capitalization and small capitalization U.S. equities, international equities, U.S. fixed income securities and cash.

The target asset allocation ranges are generally as follows:
U.S. fixed income securities
35% - 45%
U.S. equity securities
14% - 24%
International equity securities
11% - 21%
Global equity securities
20% - 30%

The pension plans' fixed income portfolio is designed to match the duration and liquidity characteristics of the pension plans' liabilities. In addition, the pension plans invest only in investment-grade debt securities to ensure preservation of capital. The pension plans' equity portfolios are subject to diversification guidelines to reduce the impact of losses in single investments. Investment managers are prohibited from buying or selling commodities and from the short selling of securities.

None of the pension plans' assets are directly invested in the Company's stock, although the pension plans may hold a minimal amount of Company stock to the extent of the Company's participation in the S&P 500 Index.

The pension plans' investments included in Level 1 are valued using closing prices for identical instruments that are traded on active exchanges. The pension plans' investments included in Level 2 are valued utilizing inputs obtained from an independent pricing service, which are reviewed by the Company for reasonableness. To determine the fair value of our Level 2 plan assets, a variety of inputs are utilized, including benchmark yields, reported trades, non-binding broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, reference data, new issue data, and monthly payment information. The pension plans have no Level 3 investments at June 30, 2013.

In addition to the investments in the above table, the pension plans also held cash and cash equivalents of $57.2 million as of June 30, 2012, which have been classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Contributions

During fiscal 2013, the Company contributed $135.3 million to the pension plans. In July 2013, the Company contributed $75.0 million to the pension plans and expects to contribute an additional $8.7 million to the pension plans during its fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 ("fiscal 2014").

Estimated Future Benefit Payments

The benefits expected to be paid in each year from fiscal 2014 to 2018 are $54.1 million, $60.5 million, $67.1 million, $77.0 million and $86.0 million, respectively. The aggregate benefits expected to be paid in the five fiscal years from 2019 to 2023 are $568.6 million. The expected benefits to be paid are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company's pension plans' benefit obligations at June 30, 2013 and includes estimated future employee service.

C. Retirement and Savings Plan. The Company has a 401(k) retirement and savings plan, which allows eligible employees to contribute up to 50% of their compensation annually and allows highly compensated employees to contribute up to 12% of their compensation annually. The Company matches a portion of employee contributions, which amounted to approximately $72.0 million, $65.9 million, and $57.5 million for the calendar years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

There are $26.3 million and $44.0 million of current deferred tax assets included in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. There are $89.4 million and $53.2 million of long-term deferred tax assets included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. There are $138.0 million and $87.1 million of current deferred tax liabilities included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Income taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries in an aggregate amount of approximately $910.3 million as of June 30, 2013, as the Company considers such earnings to be permanently reinvested

63



outside of the United States. The additional U.S. income tax that would arise on repatriation of the remaining undistributed earnings could be offset, in part, by foreign tax credits on such repatriation. However, it is impractical to estimate the amount of net income tax that might be payable.

The Company has estimated foreign net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $132.1 million as of June 30, 2013, of which $64.8 million expire through 2033 and $67.3 million has an indefinite utilization period. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has approximately $98.2 million of federal net operating loss carry-forwards from acquired companies. The net operating losses have an annual utilization limitation pursuant to section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and expire through 2031.

The Company has state net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $212.9 million as of June 30, 2013, which expire through 2032.

The Company has recorded valuation allowances of $49.4 million and $54.8 million at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, to reflect the estimated amount of domestic and foreign deferred tax assets that may not be realized.

Income tax payments were approximately $693.0 million, $660.3 million, and $628.7 million for fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

As of June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011 the Company's liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, which include interest and penalties, were $70.7 million, $84.7 million, and $105.7 million respectively. The amount that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $38.8 million, $43.7 million, and $56.3 million, respectively. The remainder, if recognized, would principally affect deferred taxes.

Interest expense and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions have been recorded in the provision for income taxes on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company recorded interest expense of $0.4 million, $1.2 million, and $1.7 million, respectively. Penalties incurred during fiscal years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011 were not material.

At June 30, 2013, the Company had accrued interest of $12.2 million recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, of which $1.2 million was recorded within income taxes payable, and the remainder was recorded within other liabilities. At June 30, 2012, the Company had accrued interest of $14.4 million recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, of which $1.6 million was recorded within income taxes payable, and the remainder was recorded within other liabilities. At June 30, 2013, the Company had accrued penalties of $1.0 million recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, of which $0.1 million was recorded within income taxes payable, and the remainder was recorded within other liabilities. At June 30, 2012, the Company had accrued penalties of $2.1 million recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, of which $0.7 million was recorded within income taxes payable, and the remainder was recorded within other liabilities.

The Company is routinely examined by the IRS and tax authorities in foreign countries in which it conducts business, as well as tax authorities in states in which it has significant business operations. The tax years currently under examination vary by jurisdiction. Examinations in progress in which the Company has significant business operations are as follows:

The Company regularly considers the likelihood of assessments resulting from examinations in each of the jurisdictions. The resolution of tax matters is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company, although a resolution could have a material impact on the Company's Statements of Consolidated Earnings for a particular future period and on the Company's effective tax rate.

If certain pending tax matters settle within the next twelve months, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease for all open tax years and jurisdictions. Based on current estimates, settlements related to various jurisdictions and tax periods could increase earnings up to $15 million in the next twelve months. Audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty. We continually assess the likelihood and amount of potential adjustments and adjust the income tax provision, the current tax liability and deferred taxes in the period in which the facts that give rise to a revision become known.

In fiscal 2013, the Company reached agreements with the IRS regarding all outstanding tax audit issues in dispute for the tax years through and including June 30, 2011, which did not have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has obligations under various facilities and equipment leases and software license agreements. Total expense under these agreements was approximately $270.2 million, $252.6 million, and $159.2 million in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, with minimum commitments at June 30, 2013 as follows:

In addition to fixed rentals, certain leases require payment of maintenance and real estate taxes and contain escalation provisions based on future adjustments in price indices.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company has purchase commitments of approximately $720.0 million, including a reinsurance premium with ACE American Insurance Company for the fiscal 2014 policy year, as well as obligations related to purchase and maintenance agreements on our software, equipment, and other assets, of which $349.1 million relates to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014, $145.1 million relates to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 and the remaining $225.8 million relates to fiscal years ending June 30, 2016 through fiscal 2018.

On July 18, 2011, athenahealth, Inc. filed a patent infringement lawsuit against ADP AdvancedMD, Inc. ("ADP AdvancedMD"), a subsidiary of the Company, seeking monetary damages, injunctive relief, and costs.  The allegations include a claim that ADP AdvancedMD's activities in providing medical practice management and billing and revenue management

65



software and associated services to physicians and medical practice managers infringe a patent owned by athenahealth, Inc.  The parties are currently engaged in the discovery process.  The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to this lawsuit and continues to vigorously defend itself against the allegations.

In June 2011, the Company received a Commissioner’s Charge from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) alleging that the Company has violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by refusing to recruit, hire, transfer and promote certain persons on the basis of their race, in the State of Illinois from at least the period of January 1, 2007 to the present.  The Company continues to investigate the allegations set forth in the Commissioner’s Charge and is cooperating with the EEOC’s investigation.

The Company is subject to various claims and litigation in the normal course of business. When a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable, the Company records a liability in the amount of its best estimate for the ultimate loss. At this time the Company is unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss, or range of reasonably possible loss, with respect to the matters described above. This is primarily because these matters involve complex issues subject to inherent uncertainty. There can be no assurance that these matters will be resolved in a manner that is not adverse to the Company.

It is not the Company’s business practice to enter into off-balance sheet arrangements. In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into contracts in which it makes representations and warranties that relate to the performance of the Company’s services and products.  The Company does not expect any material losses related to such representations and warranties.

NOTE 13. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income is a measure of income that includes both net earnings and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) results from items deferred on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in stockholders' equity. Other comprehensive (loss) income was $(214.8) million, $(136.9) million, and $157.6 million in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The accumulated balances reported in accumulated other comprehensive income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for each component of other comprehensive income (loss) are as follows:

NOTE 14. FINANCIAL DATA BY SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA

Based upon similar economic characteristics and operational characteristics, the Company’s strategic business units have been aggregated into the following three reportable segments: Employer Services, PEO Services, and Dealer Services.  The primary components of the “Other” segment are the results of operations of ADP Indemnity (a wholly-owned captive insurance company that provides workers’ compensation and employer’s liability deductible reimbursement insurance protection for PEO Services worksite employees), non-recurring gains and losses, miscellaneous processing services, such as customer financing transactions, and certain charges and expenses that have not been allocated to the reportable segments, such as stock-based compensation expense and the goodwill impairment charge.  Certain revenues and expenses are charged to the reportable segments at a standard rate for management reasons.  Other costs are recorded based on management responsibility.  The prior year reportable segments’ revenues and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes have been adjusted to reflect updated fiscal 2013 budgeted foreign exchange rates.  In addition, there is a reconciling item for the difference between actual interest income earned on invested funds held for clients and interest credited to Employer Services and PEO Services at a standard rate of 4.5%.  The reportable segments’ results also include an internal cost of capital charge related to the funding of acquisitions and other investments.  All of these adjustments/charges are reconciling items to the Company’s reportable segments’ revenues and/or earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and result in the elimination of these adjustments/charges in consolidation. Reportable segments' assets from continuing operations include funds held for clients, but exclude corporate cash, corporate marketable securities, and goodwill.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K are certifications of ADP's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which are required by Rule 13a-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). This “Controls and Procedures” section should be read in conjunction with the report of Deloitte & Touche LLP that appears on page 70 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company carried out an evaluation (the “evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013 in ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (ii) such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
It is the responsibility of Automatic Data Processing, Inc.'s (“ADP”) management to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to ADP's management and board of directors regarding the preparation of reliable financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
ADP's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of ADP; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of ADP are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of ADP; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of ADP's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements of ADP.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Management has performed an assessment of the effectiveness of ADP's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013 based upon criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management determined that ADP's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in ADP's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, ADP's internal control over financial reporting.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Automatic Data Processing, Inc.
Roseland, New Jersey
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future

70



periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial statement schedule as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013 of the Company and our report dated August 19, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial statement schedule.
