These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. and subsidiaries (“ADP” or the “Company”) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2008 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.

Note 3. Divestitures
On June 30, 2007, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Travel Clearing business for approximately $116.0 million in cash. The Company completed the sale of its Travel Clearing business on July 6, 2007. The Travel Clearing business was previously reported in the “Other” segment. In connection with the disposal of this business, the Company has classified the results of this business as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, in January 2008, the Company finalized a purchase price adjustment and received an additional payment of $7.2 million, for which the Company recorded a gain of $7.2 million, or $4.9 million after taxes, within earnings from discontinued operations on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings. During the nine months ended March 31, 2008, the Company reported a gain of $95.7 million, or $62.1 million after taxes, within earnings from discontinued operations on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.
On March 30, 2007, the Company completed the tax-free spin-off of its former Brokerage Services Group business, comprised of Brokerage Services and Securities Clearing and Outsourcing Services, into an independent publicly traded company called Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”). As a result of the spin-off, ADP stockholders of record on March 23, 2007 (the “record date”) received one share of Broadridge common stock for every four shares of ADP common stock held by them on the record date and cash for any fractional shares of Broadridge common stock. ADP distributed approximately 138.8 million shares of Broadridge common stock in the distribution. The spin-off was made without the payment of any consideration or the exchange of any shares by ADP stockholders. The Company has classified the results of operations of the spun-off business as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
On January 23, 2007, the Company completed the sale of Sandy Corporation, a business within the Dealer Services segment, which specializes in sales and marketing training, for approximately $4.0 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities by the buyer, plus an additional earn-out payment if certain revenue targets are achieved. The Company has classified the results of operations of this business as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company reported a gain of $11.2 million, or $6.9 million after tax, within earnings from discontinued operations on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings. In March 2008, the Company received an additional payment of $2.5 million, which represented a purchase price adjustment for the sale of Sandy Corporation. The Company recorded an additional gain of $2.5 million, or $1.6 million, net of tax, within earnings from discontinued operations during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2008.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded a net gain of $3.5 million and $2.8 million, net of taxes, respectively, within earnings from discontinued operations related to a change in estimated taxes on the divestitures of businesses, partially offset by professional fees incurred in connection with the divestitures of businesses.

Note 4. New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” It requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have a material impact on its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”). SFAS No. 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any controlling interest in the business and the goodwill acquired. SFAS No. 141R further requires that acquisition-related costs and costs associated with restructuring or exiting activities of an acquired entity will be expensed as incurred. SFAS No. 141R also establishes disclosure requirements that will require disclosure of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141R will impact business combinations for the Company that may be completed on or after July 1, 2009. The Company cannot anticipate whether the adoption of SFAS No. 141R will have a material impact on its results of operations and financial condition as the impact is solely dependent on whether the Company enters into a business combination after July 1, 2009 and the terms of such a transaction.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 also establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 will impact business combinations for the Company that may be completed on or after July 1, 2009. Currently, the Company does not anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
In March 2007, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 06-11 (“EITF 06-11”), “Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards.” EITF 06-11 requires companies to recognize, as an increase to additional paid-in capital, the income tax benefit realized from dividends or dividend equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and paid to employees for non-vested equity-classified employee share-based payment awards. EITF 06-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2007. The Company does not expect EITF 06-11 to have a material impact on its results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. This statement provides companies with an option to measure selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have, if any, on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). This statement clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands the disclosures on fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will not have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 applies to all tax positions accounted for under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and defines the confidence level that a tax position must meet in order to be recognized in the financial statements. The interpretation requires that the tax effects of a position be recognized only if it is “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority as of the reporting date. If a tax position is not considered “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained, then no benefits of the position are to be recognized. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 as of July 1, 2007, which resulted in a decrease to stockholders’ equity of $11.7 million (see Note 18).
Note 5. Acquisitions
The Company acquired three businesses during the nine months ended March 31, 2008 for approximately $42.1 million, net of cash acquired. These acquisitions resulted in approximately $26.2 million of goodwill. Intangible assets acquired, which totaled approximately $17.5 million, consisted primarily of customer contracts and lists and software that are being amortized over a weighted average life of approximately 10 years. The acquisitions were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company also made $48.3 million of contingent payments during the nine months ended March 31, 2008, relating to previously consummated acquisitions.

Note 7. Fair Value Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”), which requires the measurement of stock-based compensation expense to be recognized in net earnings based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation consists of the following:
|
|
• |
Stock Options. Stock options are granted to employees at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the dates of grant. Stock options are issued under a grade vesting schedule, generally vest ratably over five years and have a term of 10 years. Compensation expense for stock options is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the stock option award. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company reduced the number of stock options issued to employees and replaced these awards with the issuance of performance-based restricted stock. |
|
|
• |
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company offers an employee stock purchase plan that allows eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock at a price equal to 85% of the market value for the common stock at the date the purchase price for the offering is determined. Compensation expense for the employee stock purchase plan is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of 24 months. |
|
|
• |
Restricted Stock. |
|
|
o |
Time-Based Restricted Stock. The Company has a time-based restricted stock program under which shares of common stock have been issued to certain key employees. These shares are restricted as to transfer and in certain circumstances must be returned to the Company at the original purchase price. The Company records stock compensation expense relating to the issuance of time-based restricted stock over the period during which the transfer restrictions exist, which is up to five years from the date of grant. The value of the Company’s time-based restricted stock, based on market prices on the date of grant, is recognized as compensation expense over the restriction period on a straight-line basis. |
|
|
o |
Performance-Based Restricted Stock. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company revised its stock-based compensation programs for non-executives, and began awarding two-year performance-based restricted stock in place of stock options. In addition, in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the existing time-based restricted stock program for key employees was largely eliminated and replaced by two-year performance-based restricted stock on a prospective basis. The performance-based restricted stock program contains a two-year performance period and a subsequent six-month service period. Under this program, the Company communicates “target awards” to employees at the beginning of a performance period and, as such, dividends are not paid in respect of the “target awards” during the performance period. After the two-year performance period, if the performance targets are achieved, associates are eligible to receive dividends on any shares awarded under the program. The performance target is based on EPS growth over the performance period with possible payouts ranging from 0% to 125% of the “target awards”. SFAS No. 123R requires the measurement of stock-based compensation based upon the fair value of the award on the grant date. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of approximately 30 months based upon the probable performance target that will be met. |
The Company currently utilizes treasury stock to satisfy stock option exercises, issuances under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan and restricted stock awards. Stock-based compensation expense of $31.4 million and $33.4 million was recognized in earnings from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, as well as related tax benefits of $9.2 million and $10.2 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense of $94.8 million and $103.6 million was recognized in earnings from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, as well as related tax benefits of $28.3 million and $31.1 million, respectively.

The fair value of each stock option issued prior to January 1, 2005 was estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. For stock options issued on or after January 1, 2005, the fair value of each stock option was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial option pricing model. The binomial model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, risk-free interest rate and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of the Company’s stock price and other factors. Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The binomial model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected life of the stock option grants is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.
The following assumptions were used to determine the fair values estimated at the date of grant for stock options:

Note 10. Interim Financial Data by Segment
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company implemented several key changes to its operations, including the spin-off of its Brokerage Services Group business on March 30, 2007. In addition, there were changes in the Company’s executive management team. As a result of these changes, the Company reassessed its reportable segments under SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” and determined that PEO Services should be a reportable segment in addition to Employer Services and Dealer Services. Based upon similar economic characteristics and operational characteristics, the Company’s strategic business units have been aggregated into the following three reportable segments: Employer Services, PEO Services and Dealer Services. The Company has restated its previously reported segment results for all periods presented to reflect this change in the Company’s reportable segments. The primary components of “Other” are miscellaneous processing services, and corporate allocations and expenses, including stock-based compensation expense. Certain revenues and expenses are charged to the reportable segments at a standard rate for management purposes. Other costs are recorded based on management responsibility. The prior year reportable segments’ revenues and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes have been adjusted to reflect updated budgeted foreign exchange rates for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. In addition, there is a reconciling item for the difference between actual interest income earned on invested funds held for clients and interest credited to Employer Services and PEO Services at a standard rate of 4.5%. The reportable segments’ results also include an internal cost of capital charge related to the funding of acquisitions and other investments. All of these adjustments/charges are reconciling items to the Company’s reportable segments’ revenues and/or earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and results in the elimination of these adjustments/charges in consolidation.

Client funds obligations represent the Company’s contractual obligations to remit funds to satisfy clients’ payroll and tax payment obligations and are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the time that the Company impounds funds from clients. The client funds obligations represent liabilities that will be repaid within one year of the balance sheet date. The Company has reported client funds obligations as a current liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet totaling $23,958.1 million and $18,673.0 million as of March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively. The Company has classified funds held for clients as a current asset since these funds are held solely for the purposes of satisfying the client funds obligations.
The Company has reported the cash flows related to the purchases of corporate and client funds marketable securities and related to the proceeds from the sales and maturities of corporate and client funds marketable securities on a gross basis in the investing section of the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows. The Company has reported the cash inflows and outflows related to client funds investments with original maturities of 90 days or less on a net basis within “net (increase) decrease in restricted cash and cash equivalents and other restricted assets held to satisfy client funds obligations” in the investing section of the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows. The Company has reported the cash flows related to the cash received from and paid on behalf of clients on a net basis within “net increase in client funds obligations” in the financing section of the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows.
At March 31, 2008 approximately 95% of the available-for-sale securities held a AAA or AA rating, as rated by Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and, for Canadian securities, Dominion Bond Rating Service. ADP’s investment portfolio does not include any asset-backed securities with underlying collateral of sub-prime mortgages or home equity loans, nor does it contain any collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) or collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). ADP’s investment portfolio does include senior tranches of AAA-rated, fixed rate credit card, auto loan, and other asset-backed securities.
The Company evaluates unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities for other-than-temporary impairment based upon whether the unrealized losses were interest rate related or credit related, and based upon the length of time and the extent to which the fair value for each individual security has been below cost. As of March 31, 2008, the Company determined that none of the unrealized losses were other-than-temporary.
Expected maturities of available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2008 are as follows:

Other intangibles consist primarily of purchased rights, covenants, patents and trademarks (acquired directly or through acquisitions). All of the intangible assets have finite lives and, as such, are subject to amortization. The weighted average remaining useful life of the intangible assets is 10 years (4 years for software and software licenses, 13 years for customer contracts and lists, and 10 years for other intangibles). Amortization of intangible assets totaled $32.2 million and $37.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and totaled $99.5 million and $106.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Estimated amortization expense of the Company’s existing intangible assets for the remaining three months of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 and the subsequent five fiscal years are as follows:

Note 13. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts was $38.4 million and $30.8 million at March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively.
Note 14. Short-term Financing
In June 2007, the Company entered into a $1.75 billion, 364-day credit agreement with a group of lenders. The 364-day facility replaced the Company’s prior $1.75 billion 364-day facility. The Company also has a $1.5 billion credit facility and a $2.25 billion credit facility that mature in June 2010 and June 2011, respectively. The five-year facilities contain accordion features under which the aggregate commitments can each be increased by $500.0 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments. The interest rate applicable to the borrowings is tied to LIBOR or prime rate depending on the notification provided by the Company to the syndicated financial institutions prior to borrowing. The Company is also required to pay facility fees on the credit agreements. The primary uses of the credit facilities are to provide liquidity to the commercial paper program and to provide funding for general corporate purposes, if necessary. The Company had no borrowings through March 31, 2008 under the credit facilities.
The Company maintains a U.S. short-term commercial paper program providing for the issuance of up to $5.5 billion in aggregate maturity value of commercial paper at the Company’s discretion. The Company’s commercial paper program is rated A-1+ by Standard and Poor’s and Prime-1 by Moody’s. These ratings denote the highest quality commercial paper securities. Maturities of commercial paper can range from overnight to up to 364 days. At March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, there was no commercial paper outstanding. For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s average borrowings were $0.5 billion and $0.4 billion at a weighted average interest rate of 3.6% and 5.3%, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s average borrowings were $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, at a weighted average interest rate of 4.7% and 5.3%, respectively. The weighted average maturity of the Company’s commercial paper during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was less than two days for each period.
The Company’s U.S. and Canadian short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations are sometimes satisfied on a secured basis through the use of reverse repurchase agreements, which are collateralized principally by government and government agency securities. These agreements generally have terms ranging from overnight to up to five business days. At March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, there were no outstanding obligations under reverse repurchase agreements. For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had average outstanding balances under reverse repurchase agreements of $169.8 million and $59.8 million, respectively, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.8% and 4.2%, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had average outstanding balances under reverse repurchase agreements of $266.5 million and $105.6 million, respectively, at a weighted average inte rest rate of 4.3% and 4.4%, respectively.
Note 15. Debt
During March 2008, the Company entered into a secured financing agreement, whereby the Company borrowed $21.1 million from a third party in exchange for a security interest in a single client’s unbilled accounts receivable, which are billable over a ten-year period. The Company will continue to collect amounts due from the client as they are billed. The security interest in the receivables retained by the third party is without recourse against the Company in the event that the client does not make the appropriate payments to the Company. As of March 31, 2008, the Company has recorded approximately $2.8 million within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and approximately $18.3 million within long-term debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Net pension expense for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 includes $1.2 million and $3.6 million, respectively, reported within earnings from discontinued operations on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.
There is no minimum required contribution to the Company’s pension plans during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. During the nine months ended March 31, 2008, the Company made $52.6 million in contributions to the pension plans and expects to contribute an additional $0.9 million during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.
Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various claims and litigation in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the resolution of these matters will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
It is not the Company’s business practice to enter into off-balance sheet arrangements. However, the Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could impact its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company manages its exposure to these market risks through its regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company uses derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for trading purposes. As of March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, the Company did not have any derivative financial instruments outstanding. In the normal course of business, the Company also enters into contracts in which it makes representations and warranties that relate to the performance of its products and services. The Company does not expect any material losses related to such representations and warranties.
Note 18. Income Taxes
On July 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48. As a result of the adoption, the Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $11.7 million, as well as a corresponding increase to other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Among other things, FIN 48 requires that a liability associated with an unrecognized tax benefit be classified as a long-term liability, except for the amount for which a cash payment is anticipated within one year. Therefore, upon adoption, $100.6 million of tax liabilities were reclassified from other current liabilities to other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of July 1, 2007, the Company’s liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, which include interest and penalties, were $350.2 million. The amount that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $152.0 million. The remainder, if recognized, would principally affect deferred taxes.
As of March 31, 2008, the Company’s liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, which include interest and penalties, were $381.6 million. The amount that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $156.6 million. The remainder, if recognized, would principally affect deferred taxes.
Subsequent to the adoption of FIN 48, interest expense and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions have been recorded in the provision for income taxes on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings. Prior to the adoption of FIN 48, interest expense was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. During the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded interest expense of $15.9 million and $7.0 million, respectively. At July 1, 2007, the Company had accrued interest of $97.6 million, recorded within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2008, the Company had accrued interest of $114.4 million recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, of which $38.2 million was recorded within income taxes payable, and the remainder was recorded within other liabilities. At July 1, 2007, the Company had accrued penalties of $19.8 million recorded within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2008, the Company had accrued penalties of $19.5 million, of which $14.8 million was recorded within income taxes payable, and the remainder was recorded within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company is routinely examined by the IRS and tax authorities in foreign countries in which it conducts business, as well as tax authorities in states in which it has significant business operations, such as California, Illinois, Minnesota and New York. The tax years under examination vary by jurisdiction. The Company expects an IRS examination for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 to be completed during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009. ADP is also under examination by the following jurisdictions: California for fiscal years ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2005; Illinois for fiscal years ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2005; and Minnesota for fiscal years ended June 30, 1998 through June 30, 2004. New York State and New York City are expected to commence audits of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. The Province of Quebec is examining the 2005 and 2006 tax returns. The Province of Ontario is examining the 2002, 2003 and 2004 tax returns. The Province of Alberta is examining the 2004, 2005 and 2006 tax returns. The Company regularly considers the likelihood of assessments resulting from examinations in each of the jurisdictions. Once established, reserves are adjusted when there is more information available, when an event occurs necessitating a change to the reserves or when the statute of limitations for the relevant taxing authority to examine the tax position has expired. The resolution of tax matters is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company, although a resolution could have a material impact on the Company’s Statements of Consolidated Earnings for a particular future period and on the Company’s effective tax rate.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded a reduction in the provision for income taxes of $12.4 million, which was primarily related to the settlement of a state tax matter, for which the Company had previously recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $7.9 million and a related deferred tax asset of $2.9 million.
If certain pending tax matters settle within the next 12 months, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease for all open tax years and jurisdictions. Based on current estimates, settlements related to numerous jurisdictions and tax periods could increase earnings in an amount up to $75 million and expected net cash payments could be up to $60 million. The liability related to cash payments expected to be paid within the next 12 months has been reclassified from other liabilities to current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.

(Tabular dollars are presented in millions, except per share amounts)
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report and other written or oral statements made from time to time by ADP may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical in nature and which may be identified by the use of words like “expects,” “assumes,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “we believe,” “could be” and other words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on management’s expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include: ADP’s success in obtaining, retaining and selling additional services to clients; the pricing of products and services; changes in laws regulating payroll taxes, professional employer organizations and employee benefits; overall market and economic conditions, including interest rate and foreign currency trends; competitive conditions; auto sales and related industry changes; employment and wage levels; changes in technology; availability of skilled technical associates and the impact of new acquisitions and divestitures. ADP disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These risks and uncertainties, along with the risk factors discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, should be considered in evaluating any forward-looking statements contained herein.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Additionally, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”) on July 1, 2007. FIN 48 applies to all tax positions accounted for under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and defines the confidence level that a tax position must meet in order to be recognized in the financial statements. The interpretation requires that the tax effects of a position be recognized only if it is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained by the taxing authority as of the reporting date. If a tax position is not considered "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained, then no benefits of the position are to be recognized. The Company's adoption of FIN 48 resulted in a decrease to stockholders' equity of $11.7 million. As of March 31, 2008, the Company's liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, which include interest and penalties, were $381.6 million.
RECLASSIFICATIONS WITHIN CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS AND STATEMENTS OF CONSOLIDATED CASH FLOWS
The Company has reclassified funds held for clients and client funds obligations that had been previously presented outside of current assets and current liabilities, respectively, within the Consolidated Balance Sheets, to current assets and current liabilities, respectively, for all periods presented. Additionally, the Company has reclassified the net increase (decrease) in client funds obligations in the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows from investing activities to financing activities for all periods presented.
DIVESTITURES
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and the nine months ended March 31, 2008, the Company took efforts to divest certain non-strategic, slow-growing businesses. We completed the tax-free spin-off of our former Brokerage Services Group business on March 30, 2007 into an independent publicly traded company called Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. We made the decision to spin-off this business for several reasons. First, we determined that the growth potential of the Brokerage Services Group business, while part of ADP, was expected to be lower than that of our other businesses. Further, the Brokerage Services Group business had operating models and long-term growth plans that were different than those of our other businesses. The spin-off allowed more concentrated focus by each management team on their own respective core businesses, which is expected to be more beneficial to each company’s stockholders, clients and associates.
In addition, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, we divested Sandy Corporation, which was previously reported in our Dealer Services segment. During the nine months ended March 31, 2008, we finalized the sale of our Travel Clearing business, which was previously reported in our Other segment. We divested Sandy Corporation and Travel Clearing because they were non-strategic businesses that did not complement our other businesses. Moreover, the growth potential of these businesses was also believed to be slower than that of our other businesses.
These transactions, along with our cash flows from operating activities, have allowed us to continue to focus on the objective of returning cash to our stockholders through our share buyback program and our cash dividends to stockholders. Subsequent to the completion of these transactions, the new ADP is a more focused company, which we believe has excellent growth potential for revenue and pretax earnings.
