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

ADP equity questions
- How much does it cost to hedge ADP stock?
- The cost of a protective put depends on how far below the current price you set the floor, how long the protection lasts, and ADP's option-implied volatility. A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current ADP option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
- 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.
