PYCR expects second-quarter fiscal 2025 revenues to be between $176 million and $178 million. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $177.2 million, indicating a 11.2% year-over-year decline.
The consensus mark for earnings is pinned at 11 cents per share, which remained unchanged over the past 60 days. The figure also remained unchanged year over year.
Paycor’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarter, with the average surprise being 18.61%.
Paycor’s second-quarter fiscal 2025 performance is likely to have benefited from increasing employees on the platform and growing revenue per employee per month. Companies using outdated human capital management (HCM) tools are likely to have migrated to Paycor’s modernized offerings and reflected as growing website traffic and customer leads.
PYCR’s go-to-market strategy with the help of benefit-brokers has been helping the company in identifying and targeting the employers dissatisfied with traditional HCM solutions. The broker-driven sales are likely to contribute massively to Paycor’s top line in the to-be-reported quarter.
Paycor’s second-quarter fiscal 2025 performance is also likely to have benefited from clients subscribing to more comprehensive solutions, leading to a higher attach rate of additional modules. Furthermore, the increasing average tenure of field sellers is likely to have improved sales productivity contributing to the top line in the to-be-reported quarter.
PYCR is implementing artificial intelligence in compensation management, candidate sourcing, sentiment analysis and chatbot deployment. The enhancement of its offerings through AI implementation is likely to have gained new clients, driving the company’s revenues in the to-be-reported quarter.
However, as the HCM market is highly competitive, it demands Paycor to continuously innovate to remain at the forefront. Paycor’s second-quarter fiscal 2025 results are likely to be affected by the rising research and development expenses reducing the bottom line. Moreover, deteriorating economic conditions and labor market fluctuations resulting from macroeconomic challenges poses a threat to PYCR’s results in the to-be-reported quarter.
