Paychex: Don't Rush To Buy The Dip
Paychex's business remains fundamentally solid, with improving client retention and successful Paycor integration. But the recent stock sell-off wasn't an overreaction to a temporary slowdown. Management's FY2026 guidance is bullish, but consensus expects slower EPS growth than historical averages, limiting the case for multiple expansion. Valuation is now fair at 25.87x forward earnings, with no upside even after the post-earnings correction, so the stock lacks a margin of safety.
