What would PAYCHEX INC have to report for its valuation to change?
At $111.63, with a 9.0% required return and a 18× earnings multiple in 5 years, earnings per share must grow about 13.6% a year, to $9.54. On that path the next quarter needs diluted EPS near $1.25, against $1.10 in the quarter ended Nov 30, 2025.
Compare buying at the last close now with waiting for results: if the report moves the growth the price requires, the entry price you would accept changes with it.
