Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding operating performance, events, or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, including statements relating to our outlook, revenue growth, earnings, earnings-per-share growth, and similar projections.

    Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to known and unknown uncertainties, risks, changes in circumstances, and other factors that are difficult to predict, many of which are outside our control. Our actual performance and outcomes, including without limitation, our actual results and financial condition, may differ materially from those indicated in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

    • our ability to keep pace with changes in technology or provide timely enhancements to our solutions and support;
    • software defects, undetected errors, and development delays for our solutions;
    • the possibility of cyberattacks, security vulnerabilities or Internet disruptions, including data security and privacy leaks, and data loss and business interruptions;
    • the possibility of failure of our business continuity plan during a catastrophic event;
    • the failure of third-party service providers to perform their functions;
    • the possibility that we may be exposed to additional risks related to our co-employment relationship with our PEO business;
    • changes in health insurance and workers' compensation insurance rates and underlying claim trends;
    • risks related to acquisitions and the integration of the businesses we acquire, including risks related to the integration of Paycor;
    • our clients' failure to reimburse us for payments made by us on their behalf;
    • the effect of changes in government regulations mandating the amount of tax withheld or the timing of remittances;
    • our failure to comply with covenants in our debt agreements;
    • changes in governmental regulations, laws, and policies;
    • our ability to comply with U.S. and foreign laws and regulations;
    • our compliance with data privacy and artificial intelligence laws and regulations;
    • our failure to protect our intellectual property rights;
    • potential outcomes related to pending or future litigation matters;
    • the impact of macroeconomic factors on the U.S. and global economy, and in particular on our small- and medium-sized business clients;
    • volatility in the political and economic environment, including inflation and interest rate changes;
    • our ability to attract and retain qualified people; and
    • the possible effects of negative publicity on our reputation and the value of our brand.

    Any of these factors, as well as such other factors as discussed in our SEC filings, could cause our actual results to differ materially from our anticipated results. The information provided in this document is based upon the facts and circumstances known as of the date of this press release, and any forward-looking statements made by us in this document speak only as of the date on which they are made.
