Estate note. Heirs receive a stepped-up basis at death (§1014), eliminating built-in gain on inherited shares. Older holders who plan to bequeath rather than sell may rationally never de-concentrate.

Henry Taub started a payroll bookkeeping service in Paterson, New Jersey in 1949, processing by hand before moving to punched cards and then computers. The company now pays a substantial fraction of American private-sector workers, which is why its monthly employment report is watched as an economic indicator. Two segments run the business: employer services for payroll, tax filing, and human resources software, and professional employer organization services where ADP becomes co-employer for smaller firms. Client funds held between collection and remittance earn meaningful interest income.

Equity comp at ADP

  • RSUs use single-trigger vesting: shares become yours as each portion vests on schedule, and the value is taxed as ordinary income at that point. No IPO or acquisition is required.

ADP equity questions

How much ADP stock is too much?
There is no single threshold, but the larger the share of your net worth in one stock, the more a single bad year can set back your plans. The calculator above quantifies the drawdown impact at 30, 50, and 70 percent for your ADP position and weighs selling down (which triggers capital-gains tax now) against hedging (which costs option premium).
Does ADP grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at ADP typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
Do ADP RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
No. ADP restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
