In this long-form episode of The AI Investment Memo, we take a skeptical, buy-side look at Automatic Data Processing (ADP). Beyond the reputation and steady growth narrative, we examine what actually drives ADP’s durability: switching costs, operating leverage, capital allocation discipline, and management execution across cycles.
This episode is designed for investors who want more than surface-level quality labels. We break down where ADP’s business model is genuinely resilient, where expectations may be stretched, and what would need to go right—or wrong—for long-term returns to meet a high investment bar.
