Paylocity reported fiscal Q4 2026 results on August 4, 2026, closing a fiscal year that ended June 30. EPS was $1.84, ahead of the $1.62 estimate by 13.78%. Revenue was $444.7 million, 3.08% above the $431.5 million consensus. Compared with fiscal Q4 2025, EPS rose about 18% from $1.56 and revenue rose 11% from $400.7 million.

Fiscal 2026 EPS totaled $8.33, up about 16% from $7.17 in fiscal 2025, on revenue of $1.77 billion, up 11%. Annual EPS has risen every year in the table and is about 2.6 times the $3.25 of fiscal 2022. Fiscal Q3 is the largest quarter each year, and Q3 2026 set the highs here at $2.89 per share and $502.3 million in revenue. Q4 then falls back, as it did this year. Paylocity beat the EPS estimate in all 20 quarters shown, with surprises from 6.73% to 53.93%.

Fiscal Q1 results came between October 30 and November 4 in each of the past five years. That points to late October or early November 2026 for the first report of fiscal 2027. It will show whether the year-over-year growth of recent quarters carries into the new fiscal year.
