Paychex Inc. is scheduled to report next on December 18, 2026. The date comes from Nasdaq’s earnings calendar, and companies sometimes move it.
The quarter ending August 31, 2026, against the same quarter a year earlier.
Paychex Inc.’s own guidance, from its results release of September 23, 2026. It is the company’s statement of what it expects, not a forecast of ours.
| Measure | 3 months toAug 31, 2026 | 3 months toAug 31, 2025 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Revenue | $1.6B | $1.5B | +5.88% |
| Profit | $429.7M | $383.8M | +11.96% |
| Profit per share | $1.21 | $1.06 | +14.15% |
| Free Cash Flow | $357.4M | $662.5M | -46.05% |
These are single quarters, not a trailing year — the figures elsewhere on this site cover twelve months and will be much larger. A seasonal business swings a long way between the two: ServiceNow earns $2.0B of free cash flow in its December quarter and $0.5B in its June one.
Compared against the same quarter a year earlier, not against an analyst forecast. A “beat” or “miss” needs a consensus estimate, which is licensed data we do not carry — and getting it wrong is worse than leaving it out.
Releases land before the open or after the close, so the window runs from the close before the report day to the close of the session after it — the reaction is inside it either way.
