1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Description of Business

Paycom Software, Inc. (“Software”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management (“HCM”) software delivered as Software-as-a-Service. Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we”, “our”, “us” and the “Company” refer to Software and its consolidated subsidiaries.  

We provide functionality and data analytics that businesses need to manage the complete employment life cycle from recruitment to retirement. Our solution requires virtually no customization and is based on a core system of record maintained in a single database for all HCM functions, including talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and human resources (“HR”) management applications.

The Reorganization

Software and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Payroll Software Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”) were formed as Delaware entities on October 31, 2013 and December 23, 2013, respectively, in anticipation of an initial public offering and were wholly-owned subsidiaries of Paycom Payroll Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) prior to December 31, 2013.

On January 1, 2014, we consummated a reorganization pursuant to which (i) affiliates of Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P. (“WCAS X”), WCAS Capital Partners IV, L.P. (“WCAS Capital IV”) and WCAS Management Corporation (collectively, “WCAS”), contributed WCAS Paycom Holdings, Inc. (“WCAS Holdings”) and WCAS CP IV Blocker, Inc. (“CP IV Blocker”), which collectively owned all of the Series A Preferred Units of Holdings, to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software and (ii) the owners of outstanding Series B Preferred Units of Holdings contributed their Series B Preferred Units of Holdings to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software. Immediately after these contributions, Merger Sub merged with and into Holdings with Holdings surviving the merger.  Upon consummation of the merger, the remaining holders of outstanding common and incentive units of Holdings received shares of common stock and restricted stock of Software for their common and incentive units by operation of Delaware law and Holdings’ ownership interest in Software was cancelled. Outstanding common units, Series B Preferred Units and incentive units of Holdings, WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker were contributed to Software in exchange for, or converted into, an aggregate of 45,708,573 shares of common stock and 8,121,101 shares of restricted stock of Software. Prior to the reorganization, WCAS Holdings held Series C Preferred Units of Holdings in the amount of $46.2 million and WCAS Holdings had a note payable to a related party due April 3, 2017, in the amount of $46.2 million. Following these transactions, all outstanding Series C Preferred Units were eliminated in an intercompany transaction between Holdings and WCAS Holdings, and we assumed the 14% Note due 2017 issued by WCAS Holdings (the “2017 Note”). Following the reorganization, Software became a holding company with its principal assets being the Series B Preferred Units of Holdings and the outstanding capital stock of WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker (collectively, the “2014 Reorganization”).

Initial Public Offering

On April 21, 2014, we closed our initial public offering whereby an aggregate of 7,641,750 shares of our common stock were sold to the public (including 4,606,882 shares of common stock issued and sold by us and 3,034,868 shares of common stock sold by certain selling stockholders) at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders. The total gross proceeds we received from the offering were $69.1 million. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, the aggregate net proceeds we received totaled approximately $62.8 million. We used all of the net proceeds from the offering, together with approximately $3.3 million from existing cash, for the repayment in full of the 2017 Note and the 10% Senior Note due 2022 issued by us to WCAS Capital IV.

Follow-On Public Offering

On January 21, 2015, we closed our follow-on public offering, whereby 6,422,750 shares of our common stock were sold to the public by certain selling stockholders at a public offering price of $22.50 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Registered Block Trade Transactions

On May 20, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $36.25 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

On September 15, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 4,500,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $37.95 per share.  On September 23, 2015, the underwriter exercised its option to purchase an additional 675,000 shares from WCAS X and WCAS Capital IV.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial statements that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.  Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  In addition to these normal adjustments, on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we combined the accounts “Income tax receivable” and “Income tax payable” and the accounts “Deferred tax assets” and “Deferred tax liabilities” in order to conform to the current period presentation.  The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include income taxes, contingencies, the useful life for property and equipment and intangible assets, the life of our client relationships, the fair value of our stock-based awards and the fair value of our financial instruments, intangible assets and goodwill. These estimates are based on historical experience where applicable and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under circumstances. As such, actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

An award issued under the Paycom Software, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is classified as a share based liability and recorded at the fair value of the award.  Expense is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight line basis over the requisite service period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance which included a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 31, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted.  In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard for public and non-public entities reporting under U.S. GAAP and on July 9, 2015, the FASB approved the one year deferral.

Paycom Software, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

The effective date of the amended standard will begin in periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for share-based payments which requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable for the period(s) in which the requisite service has already been rendered. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for intangibles related to internally developed software.  The new guidance will assist entities in evaluating the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement.  The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs.  Under the new guidance, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability.  The new guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.  Debt issuance costs are currently included on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset.

In July 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which simplifies the measurement of inventory.  Under the new guidance, an entity should measure inventory (as defined within the scope of the guidance) at the lower of cost or new realizable value.  The new guidance applies to all inventory except inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method.  Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predicable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.  The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment, net, was $2.0 million and $5.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.  Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment, net, was $1.4 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid interest costs of $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively.  We did not capitalize any interest costs during the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.  We capitalized $0.4 million of interest costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

We capitalize computer software development costs related to software developed for internal use in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350-40.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we capitalized $1.1 million and $2.7 million of computer software development costs related to software developed for internal use, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we capitalized $0.6 million and $1.3 million of computer software development costs related to software developed for internal use, respectively.

3. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over our net tangible and identified intangible assets.  We had goodwill of $51.9 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. We have selected June 30 as our annual goodwill impairment testing date and determined there was no impairment as of June 30, 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2014, there were no indicators of impairment.

All of our intangible assets are considered to have finite lives and, as such, are subject to amortization. The components of intangible assets were as follows:

	September 30, 2015
	Weighted Avg. Remaining				Accumulated
	Useful Life		Gross		Amortization			Net
	(Years)
Intangibles:
Customer relationships		1.8	$	13,997	$	(11,547	)	$	2,450
Trade name		6.8		3,194		(1,758	)		1,436
Total			$	17,191	$	(13,305	)	$	3,886

	December 31, 2014
	Weighted Avg. Remaining			Accumulated
	Useful Life	Gross		Amortization			Net
	(Years)
Intangibles:
Customer relationships	2.5	$	13,997	$	(10,498	)	$	3,499
Trade name	7.5		3,194		(1,597	)		1,597
Total		$	17,191	$	(12,095	)	$	5,096

The weighted average remaining useful life of our intangible assets was 3.6 years as of September 30, 2015.  Amortization of intangible assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

4. FUNDS HELD FOR CLIENTS AND CLIENT FUNDS OBLIGATION

As part of our payroll and tax filing application, we collect funds for federal, state and local employment taxes from clients, handle applicable regulatory tax filings, correspondence and amendments, remit the funds to appropriate tax agencies, and handle other employer-related services.  Amounts collected by us from clients for their federal, state and local employment taxes earn interest during the interval between receipt and disbursement, as we invest these funds in money market funds and certificates of deposit.  These collections from clients are typically disbursed from one to 30 days after receipt, with some funds being held for up to 120 days.

These investments are shown in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as “Funds held for clients”, and the offsetting liability for the tax filings is shown as “Client funds obligation”.  As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the funds held for clients were invested in demand deposits, certificates of deposit and money market funds.  The interest earned on these funds is included in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

5. LONG-TERM DEBT

Our long-term debt consisted of the following:

	September 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
Term note to bank due May 30, 2021 (1)	$	26,081		$	26,978

(1) Our outstanding indebtedness consisted of a term note under the 2021 Consolidated Loan due to Kirkpatrick Bank (the “2021 Consolidated Loan”) with an outstanding principal balance of $26.1 million and $27.0 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The 2021 Consolidated Loan matures on May 30, 2021.  Under the 2021 Consolidated Loan, interest is payable monthly and accrues at a fixed rate of 4.75% per annum. The 2021 Consolidated Loan is secured by a mortgage covering our headquarters and certain personal property relating to our headquarters.

The 2021 Consolidated Loan includes certain financial covenants, including maintaining a fixed charge coverage ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges (defined as current maturities of long-term debt, interest expense, rent expense and distributions), of greater than 1.2 to 1.0, which is measured on a quarterly basis. We were in compliance with all of the covenants as of September 30, 2015.

As of September 30, 2015, the carrying value of our total long-term debt, including current portion, was $26.1 million, which approximated its fair value. As of December 31, 2014, the carrying value of our total long-term debt, including current portion, was $27.0 million, which approximated its fair value. The fair value of fixed rate long-term debt is estimated based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and maturities.

On May 13, 2015, we entered into a loan agreement with Kirkpatrick Bank to finance the expansion of our headquarters (the “Construction Loan”).  The Construction Loan allows for the borrowing of a maximum aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) $11.0 million or (ii) 80% of the appraised value of the constructed property.  We did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Construction Loan as of September 30, 2015.  The Construction Loan matures on the earlier of the completion of construction or November 13, 2016, with variable interest accruing at the greater of (i) the prime rate, plus 50 basis points or (ii) 4.0%.  At maturity, the outstanding principal balance of the Construction Loan will be automatically converted to a 78-month term loan.  The term loan will accrue fixed interest at the prevailing 7/20 London Interbank Offered Rate swap interest rate that is in effect as of the commencement date, plus 225 basis points.  

6. EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN AND EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

Our employees that are over the age of 21 and have completed ninety (90) days of service are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan. We have made a Qualified Automatic Contribution Arrangement (“QACA”) election, whereby we make a matching contribution for our employees equal to 100% of the first 1% of salary deferrals and 50% of salary deferrals between 2% and 6%, up to a maximum matching contribution of 3.5% of salary each plan year. We are allowed to make additional discretionary matching contributions and discretionary profit sharing contributions. Employees are 100% vested in amounts attributable to salary deferrals and rollover contributions. The QACA matching contributions will be 100% vested after two years of employment from the date of hire. If an employee terminates service prior to completing two years of employment, the employee will not be vested in these QACA matching contributions. The discretionary contributions vest 100% after two years of employment from the date of hire. Matching contributions amounted to $0.6 million and $1.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.  Matching contributions amounted to $0.4 million and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.

On May 5, 2015, our stockholders approved the ESPP.  The ESPP allows, at the beginning of each offering period, eligible employees to elect to contribute, through payroll deductions, up to 10% of their compensation, subject to an annual per employee maximum,to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of 85% of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date.  Each offering period of the ESPP lasts six monthsand the maximum number of shares that may be acquired by a participant during each offering period is 2,000 shares. The shares reserved for purposes of the ESPP are shares we purchase in the open market and the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be acquired by participants under the ESPP is 2,000,000 shares.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, eligible employees purchased 24,935 shares of the Company’s common stock under the ESPP.  Compensation expenserelated to the ESPP is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.  Our compensation expense related to the ESPP was$0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients, client funds obligation and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients and client funds obligation approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of the instruments.

We did not have any financial instruments that were measured on a recurring basis at either September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. 

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed in a similar manner to basic EPS after assuming the issuance of shares of common stock for all potentially dilutive shares of restricted stock whether or not they are vested.

In accordance with ASC Topic 260 “Earnings Per Share”, the two-class method determines earnings for each class of common stock and participating securities according to an earnings allocation formula that adjusts the income available to common stockholders for dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings.  Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and, therefore, are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.  The outstanding restricted shares of stock that were issued on July 8, 2015, are considered participating securities.

9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

On January 1, 2014, we consummated the 2014 Reorganization, pursuant to which (i) affiliates of WCAS contributed WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker, which collectively owned all of the Series A Preferred Units of Holdings, to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software and (ii) the owners of outstanding Series B Preferred Units of Holdings contributed their Series B Preferred Units of Holdings to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software. Immediately after these contributions, Merger Sub merged with and into Holdings with Holdings surviving the merger. Upon consummation of the merger, the remaining holders of outstanding common and incentive units of Holdings received shares of common stock of Software for their common and incentive units by operation of Delaware law and Holdings’ ownership interest in Software was cancelled. Outstanding common units, Series B Preferred Units and WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker were contributed to Software in exchange for, or converted into, 45,708,573 shares of common stock and 8,121,101 shares of restricted stock of Software.

The shares of restricted stock were issued subject to various vesting conditions. A portion of the restricted stock was subject to time-based vesting conditions, while a portion was subject to market-based vesting conditions. The market-based vesting conditions were based on our total enterprise value exceeding certain specified thresholds. Following these transactions, all outstanding Series C Preferred Units were eliminated in an intercompany transaction between Holdings and WCAS Holdings, and we assumed the 2017 Note. As a result of the 2014 Reorganization, we recorded a one-time reclassification of $29.3 million of accumulated deficit to additional paid in capital on January 1, 2014. Following the 2014 Reorganization, Software became a holding company with its principal assets being the Series B Preferred Units of Holdings and the outstanding capital stock of WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker.  

Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with time-based vesting conditions was measured based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions was measured based upon the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based upon the probability that the vesting conditions would be met. For restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions, 50% of the restricted stock vested upon reaching a total enterprise

value of $1.4 billion on December 1, 2014 and the remaining 50% of the restricted stock vested upon reaching a total enterprise value of $1.8 billion on March 2, 2015.  The associated compensation expense adjusted for actual forfeitures was $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 for the vesting of the restricted stockwith market-based vesting conditions on March 2, 2015.The total net compensation expense for the vesting of the restricted stock with time and market-based vesting conditions was $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

There was $0.3 million and $0.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested time-based restricted stock outstanding as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years as of September 30, 2015.

On May 5, 2015, our stockholders approved the Paycom Software, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”).  The Incentive Plan provides for the payment of incentive compensation that is not subject to certain federal income tax deduction limitations.  Participation in the Incentive Plan is limited to certain of our employees designated by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.  

On July 8, 2015, we issued an aggregate of 741,931 shares of restricted stock to each of our executive officers and certain non-executive employees under the Paycom Software, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”), of which 477,200 shares are subject to market-based vesting conditions and 264,731 shares are subject to time-based vesting conditions.  The fair value of each share of restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions is estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model.  This model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term and expected dividend yield.  Expected volatilities used in the model are based on historical volatilities of comparable guideline companies until a sufficient trading history in the Company’s common stock exists.  The annual volatility assumed in the model was 26%.  An expected dividend yield of 0% is applied given that the Company has not paid any dividends.  The risk-free interest rate of 2.2% is derived from the implied yield available on 10 year U.S. Treasury securities with a remaining term equivalent to that of the applicable shares as of the valuation date.  The expected term represents the period that the applicable shares of restricted stock are expected to be outstanding.  The Company determined the expected term assumption based on the vesting terms and contractual terms of the restricted stock.  The Company is required to estimate forfeitures and only record compensation costs for those awards that are expected to vest.

Restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions will vest 50% when the Company reaches a total enterprise value of $2.65 billion and 50% when the Company reaches a total enterprise value of $3.5 billion.  Restricted stock with time-based vesting conditions will vest over periods of three or five years.  Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with time-based vesting conditions was measured based on the fair value of the underlying shares of restricted stock on the grant date (which was equal to the closing price of our common stock of $33.33 on the grant date) and will be recognized over the requisite service periods on a straight-line basis.  Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with market-based vesting conditions was measured based on the fair value of the underlying shares of restricted stock on the grant date, which was $21.76 or $27.24 depending on the enterprise value target.  Compensation expense for restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of 2.3 to 4.2 years.  Our compensation expense related to the LTIP was $1.4 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.  There was $17.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested restricted stock outstanding as of September 30, 2015.  The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years as of September 30, 2015.

We do not receive any cash proceeds from the vesting of our restricted stock.  The capitalized cash stock-based compensation expense related to software developed for internal use of $31 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and $4 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2014, was included in software and capitalized software costs in “Property and equipment, net” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid rent on our Dallas office space in the amounts of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The Dallas office building is owned by 417 Oakbend, LP, a Texas limited partnership. Our Chief Sales Officer owns a .01% general partnership interest and a 10.49% limited partnership interest in 417 Oakbend, LP.

We incurred $1.0 million of registration and legal fees in connection with the underwritten secondary offerings in 2015, which were charged to general and administrative expense and from which we did not receive any proceeds.  The payment of such fees included expenses on behalf of related parties and was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee.

In April 2014, we paid off the balance of the 2017 Note that was issued by WCAS Holdings and was payable to WCAS X, a related party, with proceeds from our initial public offering.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Employment Agreements

We have employment agreements with certain of our executive officers. The agreements allow for annual compensation, participation in executive benefit plans, and performance-based cash bonuses.

Funding Agreement

In March 2010, we entered into a funding agreement with the Oklahoma City Economic Development Trust (the “Trust”) and the City of Oklahoma City. The Trust provided $2.0 million worth of certain public infrastructure improvements related to our newly constructed principal executive offices in northwest Oklahoma City. In exchange for the infrastructure improvements provided, we agreed to create at least 492 jobs over a five year period, with an average first year salary in excess of $37 thousand and make a minimum capital investment in the project of at least $15.0 million. We further agreed that we would be responsible for repayment of any amount that was not offset by earned job creation payments. As of December 31, 2014, we had fulfilled our obligation for these job creation payments.  

Legal Proceedings

On September 23, 2014, National Financial Partners Corp. (“NFP”) filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the “District Court”) (Civil Action No. 1:14-cv-07424). The complaint alleged trademark infringement, unfair competition, deceptive trade practices, consumer fraud and deceptive business practices related to the adoption and use of our logo and sought preliminary and permanent injunctions prohibiting us from continued infringement as well as money damages, including an accounting for sales and profits, attorneys’ fees and disgorgement of profits. NFP also moved for an order preliminarily enjoining us from using our logo.  On April 30, 2015, we filed an opposition to NFP’s motion for preliminary injunction.  On May 7 and 8, 2015, the District Court held a hearing on NFP’s motion for a preliminary injunction.  On June 10, 2015, the District Court entered an order granting a preliminary injunction in favor of NFP and thereafter issued its preliminary injunction on June 16, 2015.  On June 16, 2015, we filed an appeal of the District Court’s order and preliminary injunction to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (Case No. 15-2289).  We further sought a stay of the preliminary injunction pending the appeal.  On June 30, 2015, the District Court granted our motion for a stay pending appeal.  On June 25, 2015, we filed an offer of judgment seeking to resolve all pending claims between the parties and terminate the action with the payment of $20 thousand by Paycom Payroll, LLC and an agreement to change our logo within 60 days.  Our offer of judgment was accepted by NFP and the District Court entered a judgment pursuant to the offer of judgment on July 6, 2015, terminating the District Court action.  The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals case was terminated on July 8, 2015.

We are involved in various other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Operating Leases and Deferred Rent

We lease office space under several noncancellable operating leases with contractual terms expiring from 2015 to 2021. Minimum rent expenses are recognized over the lease term. The lease term is defined as the fixed noncancellable term of the lease plus all periods, if any, for which failure to renew the lease imposes a penalty on us in an amount that a renewal appears, at the inception of the lease, to be reasonably assured. When a lease contains a predetermined fixed escalation of the minimum rent, we recognize the related rent expense on a straight-line basis and record the difference between the recognized rent expense and the amount payable under the lease as a liability. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $0.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively, recorded as a liability for deferred rent.

Rent expense under operating leases for the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2015, was $1.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively.  Rent expense under operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, was $1.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

12. INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes is based on a current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items.  Significant management judgment is required in estimating operating income in order to determine our effective income tax rate.  The estimated effective income tax rate was 41.79% and 42.13% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.  The estimated effective income tax rate was 38.57% and 39.11% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.  The higher effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 is primarily the result of an increase in the applicable statutory federal tax rate.

Overview

We are a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based HCM software delivered as Software-as-a-Service.  We provide functionality and data analytics that businesses need to manage the complete employment life cycle from recruitment to retirement.  Our solution requires virtually no customization and is based on a core system of record maintained in a single database for all HCM functions, including talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and human resources (“HR”) management applications.  Our user-friendly software allows for easy adoption of our solution by employees, enabling self-management of their HCM activities in the cloud, which reduces the administrative burden on employers and increases employee productivity.

We serve a diverse client base in terms of size and industry. None of our clients constituted more than one-half of one percent of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Our revenues are primarily generated through our sales force that solicits new clients and our client relations representatives who sell new applications to existing clients. We have 36 sales teams located in 23 states and plan to open additional sales offices to further expand our presence in the U.S. market.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we opened five new sales offices, with one sales office located in each of Brooklyn, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Nashville and Pittsburgh.  Our continued growth depends on attracting new clients through geographic expansion, further penetration of our existing markets and the introduction of new applications to our existing client base. We also expect a portion of our growth to generally mirror any improvements in the labor market. Our principal marketing programs include telemarketing and email campaigns, search engine marketing methods and tradeshows.

Recent Developments

Registered Block Trade Transactions

On May 20, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock by Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P. (“WCAS X”), WCAS Capital Partners IV, L.P. (“WCAS Capital IV”) each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $36.25 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

On September 15, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 4,500,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital Partners IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $37.95 per share.  On September 23, 2015, the underwriter exercised its option to purchase an additional 675,000 shares from WCAS X and WCAS Capital IV.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Trends and Opportunities

Our payroll application is the foundation of our solution and all of our clients are required to utilize this application in order to access our other applications. As a result of our evolving revenue mix, coupled with the unique client benefits that our solution provides (e.g., enabling our clients to scale the number of HCM applications that they use on an as-needed basis), we are presented with a variety of opportunities and challenges.

We generate revenues from (i) fixed amounts charged per billing period plus a fee per employee or transaction processed or (ii) fixed amounts charged per billing period. We do not require clients to enter into long-term contractual commitments with us. Our billing period varies by client based on when they pay their employees, which is either weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly or monthly.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, our gross margins were approximately 84% and 82%, respectively.  Historically, our total gross margin gradually improved over time as (i) our gross margin for our other HCM applications was higher than our gross margin for payroll processing, (ii) we added additional clients, (iii) our existing clients deployed additional HCM applications and (iv) we reduced our cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues.  We do not expect our gross margins to continue to grow at the same rate as they did between 2014 and 2015, but rather to remain relatively consistent from quarter-to-quarter.

Key Metrics

In addition to the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) metrics that we regularly monitor, we also monitor the following metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance and identify trends affecting our business:

	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Key Performance Indicators:
Sales Teams (at period end)	36		31		36		31
Annualized New Recurring Revenue	$	31,764	$	14,927	$	68,399	$	39,017

· Sales Teams. We monitor our sales professionals by the number of sales teams at period end and each team is comprised of approximately six to nine sales professionals. Certain larger metropolitan areas can support more than one sales team. We believe that the number of sales teams is an indicator of potential revenue for future periods.

· Annualized New Recurring Revenue. While we do not enter into long-term contractual commitments with our clients, we monitor annualized new recurring revenue as we believe it is an indicator of potential revenue for future periods. Annualized new recurring revenue is an estimate based on the annualized amount of the first full month of revenue attributable to new clients that were added or existing clients that purchased additional applications during the period presented. Annualized new recurring revenue only includes revenues from clients who have used our solution for at least one month during the period. Because annualized new recurring revenue is only recorded after a client uses our solution for one month, it includes revenue that has been recognized in historical periods.

Revenues

Total revenues were $55.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $36.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $18.7 million, or 51%. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to the addition of clients in mature sales offices (those offices that have been open for at least 24 months) as well as contributions from newer offices that are reaching maturity. Implementation and other revenues, a component of total revenues, increased to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $0.4 million, or 61%.  

A combination of other factors also contributed to the increase in revenues, including the addition of new clients in more recently opened sales offices and the introduction and sale of additional applications to our existing clients. The increase in revenues was also due to an increase in the average revenue per client.  Revenues attributable to new applications introduced in 2015 were not a material factor in the increase in revenue for this quarter, although we expect these applications to represent a more significant portion of our revenues in the future.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was $8.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $2.5 million, or 38%. The increase in cost of revenues was due primarily to a $1.4 million increase in employee costs related to additional operating personnel, as well as a $0.2 million increase in shipping fees and a $0.2 million increase in automated clearinghouse fees, each of which related to increased sales.  In addition, depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.3 million, or 48%, primarily due to technology developed and other additional assets purchased.  

Administrative Expenses

Total administrative expenses were $39.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $25.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $14.1 million, or 55%. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, sales and marketing expense increased by $8.9 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to a $4.4 million increase in commissions and bonuses related to increased sales, a $3.2 million increase in employee-related expenses and a $0.3 million increase in recruiting expenses, in each case resulting from an increase in the number of sales personnel, a $0.4 million increase in advertising costs related to rebranding expenses necessitated by settlement of the trademark infringement and other related claims alleged by National Financial Partners Corp. (“NFP”) and a $0.3 million increase in building rent and other building expenses related to new offices and additional leased space in existing offices.  

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, research and development expense increased by $1.3 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to an increase in the number of research and development personnel and related bonus expense.  We anticipate an increase in research and development expense over time as we continue to increase the number of research and development personnel.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, general and administrative expense increased by $3.6 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to a $2.5 million increase in employee-related expenses and a $0.7 million increase in accounting, compliance and insurance expense.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.3 million from the comparable prior year period, or 26%, primarily due to additional technology developed and other assets purchased.

Expenditures for software developed or obtained for internal use are capitalized and amortized over a three-year period on a straight-line basis.  The timing of these capitalized expenditures may affect the amount of research and development expenses in any given period.  The table below sets forth the amounts of capitalized and expensed research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

	Three Months Ended

Revenues

Total revenues were $159.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $106.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $52.6 million, or 49%. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to the addition of clients in mature sales offices (those offices that have been open for at least 24 months) as well as contributions from newer offices that are reaching maturity. Implementation and other revenues, a component of total revenues, increased to $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $1.2 million, or 68%.  

A combination of other factors also contributed to the increase in revenues, including an increase in the number of tax form filings on behalf of clients, the addition of new clients in more recently opened sales offices and the introduction and sale of additional applications to our existing clients. The increase in revenues was also due to an increase in the average revenue per client.  Revenues attributable to new applications introduced in 2015 were not a material factor in the increase in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, although we expect these applications to represent a more significant portion of our revenues in the future.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was $25.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $19.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $5.5 million, or 28%. The increase in cost of revenues was due primarily to a $3.5 million increase in employee costs related to additional operating personnel, as well as a $0.5 million increase in shipping fees related to increased sales. In addition, depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.8 million, or 41%, primarily due to technology developed and other additional assets purchased.  

Administrative Expenses

Total administrative expenses were $106.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $76.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $29.8 million, or 39%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, sales and marketing expense increased by $17.5 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to an $8.2 million increase in commissions and bonuses resulting from increased sales, a $7.3 million increase in employee-related expenses, a $0.7 million increase in recruiting and training expenses related to an increase in the number of sales personnel and a $0.8 million increase in advertising costs related to rebranding expenses necessitated by settlement of the trademark infringement and other related claims alleged by NFP.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, research and development expense increased by $3.2 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to an increase in the number of research and development personnel and related bonus expense. We anticipate an increase in research and development expense over time as we continue to increase the number of research and development personnel. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, general and administrative expense increased by $8.3 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to a $4.7 million increase in employee-related expenses and a $2.1 million increase in accounting, compliance and insurance expense, a $0.4 million increase in telecom expenses related to increased headcount and a $0.1 million increase in director expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.9 million from the comparable prior year period, or 26%, primarily due to additional technology developed and other assets purchased.

Expenditures for software developed or obtained for internal use are capitalized and amortized over a three-year period on a straight-line basis.  The timing of these capitalized expenditures may affect the amount of research and development expenses in any given period. The table below sets forth the amounts of capitalized and expensed research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

	Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2015		September 30, 2014
Capitalized portion of research and development	$	2,733	$	1,317

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2015, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents totaling $48.5 million. Our cash and cash equivalents are comprised primarily of deposit accounts and money market funds.  We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs over at least the next 12 months.

21

We have historically financed our operations from cash flows generated from operations, cash from the sale of equity securities and borrowings under our consolidated loans. Since inception, we have raised $125.1 million of equity capital, $62.8 million of which was received from the net proceeds raised in our initial public offering that closed in April 2014. We incurred related party debt as part of corporate reorganizations that occurred in April 2012 and January 2014.  Such debt has since been repaid.We have also incurred indebtedness to finance the expansion of our corporate headquarters in Oklahoma City.  The first expansion of our corporate headquarters was completed in June 2014 and we are currently constructing an approximately $13.4 million new corporate building adjacent to our corporate headquarters that we expect to be completed by mid-2016.  In connection with the expansion currently in progress, we entered into a loan agreement with Kirkpatrick Bank on May 13, 2015 (the “Construction Loan”) and are negotiating a local incentive package with the Oklahoma City Economic Development Trust worth up to approximately $1.2 million, depending on the number of new jobs we create for local employees over the next two years and the average annual salary level for such local employees.  We have the ability to borrow approximately $11 million under the Construction Loan prior to the completion of construction to finance the expansion of our corporate headquarters.  

As of September 30, 2015, our only outstanding indebtedness consisted of the 2021 Consolidated Loan due to Kirkpatrick Bank that matures on May 30, 2021 (the “2021 Consolidated Loan”) and the Construction Loan, each of which is discussed in more detail below.

2021 Consolidated Loan. As of September 30, 2015, we had a term note under the 2021 Consolidated Loan with an outstanding principal amount of $26.1 million. Under the 2021 Consolidated Loan, interest is payable monthly and accrues at a fixed rate of 4.75% per annum. The 2021 Consolidated Loan is secured by a mortgage covering our headquarters and certain personal property relating to our headquarters.

We are required to comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants under the 2021 Consolidated Loan, including maintaining a fixed coverage ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges (defined as current maturities of long-term debt, interest expense, rent expense and distributions) greater than 1.2 to 1.0, which is measured on a quarterly basis. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under the 2021 Consolidated Loan.

Pursuant to the terms of the 2021 Consolidated Loan, until amounts under the 2021 Consolidated Loan are repaid, we may not, subject to certain exceptions: (i) create any mortgages or liens, (ii) make any loans, advances or extensions of credit with any affiliate or enter into any other transaction with any affiliate, (iii) lease any mortgaged property, (iv) make any distributions as long as an event of default exists, (v) make any material change in methods of accounting, (vi) enter into any sale and leaseback arrangement, (vii) amend, modify, restate, cancel or terminate our organizational documents, (viii) sell, transfer or convey any mortgaged property or (ix) incur funded outside debt.

An event of default under the 2021 Consolidated Loan includes, among other events, (i) failure to pay principal or interest when due, (ii) breaches of certain covenants, (iii) any failure to meet the required financial covenants and (iv) an institution of a bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or receivership.

Construction Loan.  On May 13, 2015, we entered into the Construction Loan with Kirkpatrick Bank to finance the expansion of our headquarters.  The Construction Loan allows for the borrowing of a maximum aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) $11.0 million or (ii) 80% of the appraised value of the constructed property.  We did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Construction Loan as of September 30, 2015.  The Construction Loan matures on the earlier of the completion of construction or November 13, 2016, with variable interest accruing at the greater of (i) the prime rate, plus 50 basis points or (ii) 4.0%.  

At maturity, the outstanding principal balance of the Construction Loan will be automatically converted into a 78-month term loan.  The term loan will accrue fixed interest at the prevailing 7/20 London Interbank Offered Rate swap interest rate that is in effect as of the commencement date, plus 225 basis points.  

Cash Flow Analysis

Our cash flows from operating activities have historically been significantly impacted by profitability, our investment in sales and marketing to drive growth, implementation revenue received but deferred and research and development. Our ability to meet future liquidity needs will be driven by our operating performance and the extent of continued investment in our operations. Failure to generate sufficient revenue and related cash flows or to raise additional capital could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our liquidity needs and achieve our business objectives.

22

As part of our payroll and payroll tax filing services, we collect funds for federal, state and local employment taxes from our clients which we remit to the appropriate tax agencies. We invest these funds in certificates of deposit and money market funds from which we earn interest income during the period between their receipt and disbursement.

As our business grows, we expect our capital expenditures and our investment activity to continue to increase. Depending on certain growth opportunities, we may choose to accelerate investments in sales and marketing, acquisitions, technology and services. Actual future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our future revenues, cash from operating activities and the level of expenditures in all areas of our business.

The following table summarizes the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,						% Change

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $34.9 million and resulted from a decrease in funds held for clients of $44.7 million and a decrease in restricted cash of $0.4 million, offset by purchases of property and equipment of $10.2 million.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $50.2 million and resulted primarily from a decrease in funds held for clients of $62.1 million, offset by purchases of property and equipment of $11.9 million.

23

Contractual Obligations

Our principal commitments primarily consist of long-term debt and leases for office space.  For additional information regarding our long-term debt and our commitments and contingencies, see “Note 5. Long Term Debt” and “Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies” in the Form 10-K and in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.  Other than the Construction Loan discussed above and in the associated notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed in the contractual obligations section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions to ensure that management believes them to be reasonable under the then-current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results may materially differ from these estimates made by management under different assumptions and conditions.

Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates, and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position, are discussed in the critical accounting policies and estimates section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to those disclosed in the Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income as supplemental measures to review and assess our performance and for planning purposes.  We define: (i) EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization, (ii) Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, certain transaction expenses that are not core to our operations and net loss on early repayment of debt and (iii) non-GAAP net income as net income plus tax adjusted stock-based compensation expense, certain tax adjusted transaction expenses that are not core to our operations and tax adjusted net loss on early repayment of debt.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are metrics that we believe are useful to investors in evaluating our performance and facilitating comparison with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement results under U.S. GAAP.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for net income, which we consider to be the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, you should not consider EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA or non-GAAP net income in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income may not be comparable to similar titled measures of other companies and other companies may not calculate such measures in the same manner as we do.

(1) Beginning in 2015, we use an individual non-GAAP tax rate for each tax adjusted non-GAAP item to determine the amount of non-GAAP net income.  Prior to 2015, we used an overall effective tax rate for each tax adjusted non-GAAP item to determine the amount of non-GAAP net income.  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity

We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $48.5 million as of September 30, 2015. We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market mutual funds to be cash equivalents. These amounts are invested primarily in deposit accounts and money market funds. The cash and cash equivalents are held for working capital purposes. Our investments are made for capital preservation purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

Our cash equivalents are subject to market risk due to changes in interest rates. Fixed rate securities may have their market value adversely affected by a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectation due to changes in interest rates, or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that decline in market value due to changes in interest rates.

As of September 30, 2015, we did not believe that an increase or decrease in interest rates of 100-basis points would have a material effect on our operating results or financial condition.

25

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2015, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2015 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in this report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Commencing January 1, 2016, we will cease to be an “emerging growth company.”  Accordingly, management will be required to make the first annual assessment of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”) commencing with our Annual Report on Form 10-K with respect to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015 (the “2015 Annual Report”).  The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm will be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in our 2015 Annual Report.  

We are currently conducting an extensive evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting in preparation for the required certification under Section 404. 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On September 23, 2014, NFP filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the “District Court”) (Civil Action No. 1:14-cv-07424). The complaint alleged trademark infringement, unfair competition, deceptive trade practices, consumer fraud and deceptive business practices related to the adoption and use of our logo and sought preliminary and permanent injunctions prohibiting us from continued infringement as well as money damages, including an accounting for sales and profits, attorneys’ fees and disgorgement of profits. NFP also moved for an order preliminarily enjoining us from using our logo. On April 30, 2015, we filed an opposition to NFP’s motion for preliminary injunction.  On May 7 and 8, 2015, the District Court held a hearing on NFP’s motion for a preliminary injunction.  On June 10, 2015, the District Court entered an order granting a preliminary injunction in favor of NFP and thereafter issued its preliminary injunction on June 16, 2015.  On June 16, 2015, we filed an appeal of the District Court’s order and preliminary injunction to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (Case No. 15-2289).  We further sought a stay of the preliminary injunction pending the appeal.  On June 30, 2015, the District Court granted our motion for a stay pending appeal.  On June 25, 2015, we filed an offer of judgment seeking to resolve all pending claims between the parties and terminate the action with the payment of $20 thousand by Paycom Payroll, LLC and an agreement to change our logo within 60 days.  Our offer of judgment was accepted by NFP and the District Court entered a judgment pursuant to the offer of judgment on July 6, 2015, terminating the District Court action.  The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals case was terminated on July 8, 2015.  

We are involved in various other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business.  Although we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the information set forth in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015, except as set forth below:

Commencing January 1, 2016, we will no longer be an “emerging growth company,” and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will no longer apply to us.  The 2015 Annual Report will reflect this change.

We are currently an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012. Because the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700 million as of June 30, 2015, commencing January 1, 2016 we will be deemed a large accelerated filer and, accordingly, will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company. As a large accelerated filer, we will be subject to certain disclosure requirements that apply to other public companies but have not previously applied to us due to our status as an emerging growth company. These requirements include:

· compliance with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting;

· compliance with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

· full disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and

· compliance with the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

As of September 21, 2015, we ceased to be a “controlled company” as defined in the NYSE Listed Company Manual and, as a result, no longer qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. If we are unable to comply with applicable corporate governance requirements, we may become subject to enforcement actions by the NYSE.

Prior to September 21, 2015, the parties to the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement dated March 10, 2014, which include WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, WCAS Management Corporation, Chad Richison, Shannon Rowe, William X. Kerber, III, Jeffrey D. York, Robert J. Levenson, the Estate of Richard Aiello and certain of their affiliates or related entities (collectively, the “Stockholders Agreement Parties”) held more than 50% of the voting power for the election of the Company’s directors. Accordingly, we relied upon the “controlled company” exception with respect to certain NYSE corporate governance requirements. Pursuant to this

27

exception, we were exempt from the rules that would have otherwise required that our Board of Directors consist of a majority of independent directors and that our compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee be composed entirely of independent directors.

Following the initial closing of a registered secondary offering on September 21, 2015, the Stockholders Agreement Parties no longer hold more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors and, as a result, we are no longer a “controlled company” as defined in the NYSE Listed Company Manual. By December 20, 2015, both our nominating and corporate governance committee and compensation committee must consist of a majority of independent directors, and by September 21, 2016, both committees must consist solely of independent directors and our Board of Directors must consist of a majority of independent directors. During these phase-in periods, our stockholders will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that have committees of their boards of directors that consist solely of independent directors and boards of directors that consist of a majority of independent directors. Further, if, within the phase-in periods, we are not able to recruit additional directors that would qualify as independent, or we are not able to otherwise comply with the NYSE listing requirements, we may be subject to enforcement actions by the NYSE.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

None.

Share Repurchase Program

During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we did not have a share repurchase program in place, and no shares of our common stock were repurchased.

Item 5. Other Information.

Certain provisions of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) became effective as of September 21, 2015, the date that the Stockholders Agreement Parties ceased to collectively beneficially own (directly or indirectly) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock (the “Trigger Date”), replacing certain provisions that only applied prior to the Trigger Date. Effective November 3, 2015, our Board of Directors amended and restated the Company’s existing bylaws (as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”) in order to, among other things, conform Section 3.14 of the bylaws to the related Charter provision applicable after the Trigger Date. Section 3.14 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws provides that no director may be removed from office by the stockholders except for cause with the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 ⅔%) of the total voting power of all outstanding securities of the Company then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. The threshold for removal of a director by the stockholders was previously a majority of the total voting power of all outstanding securities of the Company then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is attached to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 3.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

All meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Delaware, on such date and at such time as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors (or the Chairman in the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors).

Section 2.02. Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of stockholders, commencing with the year 2014, shall be held for the election of directors and to transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.

Section 2.03. Special Meetings. A special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board (as defined below) or by the President of the Corporation and may not be called by any other person.

Section 2.04. Conduct at Meetings.  The Chairman of the Board of Directors or the President of the Corporation shall act as chairman or co-chairman, as applicable, of any meetings of stockholders.  The Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary of the meeting. If neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is present, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint a secretary of the meeting.  The Board of Directors may adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors prior to the meeting, the chairman of the meeting shall determine the order of business and shall have the authority in his or her discretion to regulate the conduct of any such meeting, including, without limitation, convening the meeting and adjourning the meeting (whether or not a quorum is present), announcing the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote, imposing restrictions on the persons (other than stockholders of record of the Corporation or their duly appointed proxies) who may attend any such meeting, establishing procedures for the dismissal of business not properly presented, maintaining order at the meeting and safety of those present, restricting entry to the meeting after the time fixed for commencement thereof and limiting the circumstances in which any person may make a statement or ask questions at any meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.05. Notice of Meetings and Adjourned Meetings; Waivers of Notice.

(a) Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote

Exhibit 3.2

at such meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (“Delaware Law”), such notice shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. The Board of Directors or the chairman of the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another time or place (whether or not a quorum is present), and notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and voting at such meeting, are announced at the meeting at which such adjournment is made.

(b) A written waiver of any such notice signed by the person entitled thereto, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.

Section 2.06. Quorum. Unless otherwise provided under the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws and subject to Delaware Law, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting or a majority in voting interest of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified.

Section 2.07. Voting.

(a) Unless otherwise provided by Delaware Law or the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each outstanding share of capital stock of the Corporation held by such stockholder. Any share of capital stock of the Corporation held by the Corporation shall have no voting rights. Except as otherwise provided by Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of capital stock of the Corporation present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specific circumstances, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares of capital stock of the Corporation present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

(b) Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to a corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, appointed by an instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by his attorney thereunto authorized, or by proxy sent by cable, telegram or by any means of electronic communication permitted by law, which results in a writing from such stockholder or by his attorney, and delivered to the secretary of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided in the Stockholders Agreement of the Corporation, by and among the Corporation, Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“WCAS”), WCAS Capital Partners, IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“CP IV”), Chad Richison, Shannon Rowe, William Kerber, Jeff York, Robert Levenson, Richard Aiello and each other signatory thereto (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified, the “Stockholders Agreement”), a copy of which is on file with the Corporation, pursuant to which such stockholders have entered into certain voting and other arrangements as set forth therein, no proxy shall be voted after three (3) years from its date, unless said proxy provides for a longer period.

(c) In determining the number of votes cast for or against a proposal or nominee, shares abstaining from voting on a matter and votes by a broker that have not been directed by the beneficial owner will be counted for purposes of determining a quorum but not for purposes of determining the number of votes cast.

The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the entire meeting, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present at the meeting. The original stock transfer books (or any duplicates thereof maintained by the Corporation) shall be the only evidence of the identity of the stockholders entitled to examine such list or transfer books or to vote at any meeting of stockholders.  

Section 2.12. Advance Notice of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals.

(a) Timely Notice. At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such nominations of persons for the election to the Board of Directors shall be considered and such other business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, nominations or such other business must be: (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors  or (iii) otherwise properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder (A) who is a stockholder of record of the Corporation (and, with respect to any beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf such business is proposed or such nomination or nominations are made, only if such beneficial owner is the beneficial owner of shares of the Corporation) both at the time such notice of meeting is delivered and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting of stockholders, (B) who is entitled to vote at the meeting and (C) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.12. In addition, any proposal of business (other than the nomination of persons for election to the Board of Directors) must be a proper matter for stockholder action. For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder or stockholders of record intending to propose the business (the “Proposing Stockholder”) must have given timely notice thereof pursuant to this Section 2.12(a) or Section 2.12(c) below, as applicable, in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a Proposing Stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation: (x) not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90^th) day, nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred and twentieth (120^th) day in advance of the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting if such meeting is to be held on a day which is not more than thirty (30) days in advance of the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting or not later than seventy (70) days after the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting; and (y) with respect to any other annual meeting of stockholders, not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90^th) day prior to such annual meeting or the close of business on the tenth (10^th) day following the date of Public Disclosure of the date of such meeting. In no event shall an adjournment, deferral or postponement of an annual meeting or Public Disclosure thereof commence a new notice time period (or extend any notice time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.  For purposes of this Section 2.12(a), “Public Disclosure” shall mean a disclosure made in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Services, The Associated Press or a comparable national news service or in a document filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

stock of the Corporation which are owned of record and beneficially by each such nominee (if any), (iv) such other information concerning each such nominee as would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of such nominee as a director in an election contest (even if an election contest is not involved) or that is otherwise required to be disclosed, under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, (v) a description of all direct and indirect compensation and other material agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past three (3) years, and

In no event shall the Public Disclosure of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any notice time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

(f) Effect of Noncompliance. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary: (i) no nominations shall be made or business shall be conducted at any annual or special meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.12, and (ii) unless otherwise required by law, if a Proposing Stockholder intending to propose business or make nominations at an annual or special meeting pursuant to this Section 2.12 does not provide the information required under this Section 2.12 to the Corporation promptly following the later of the record date or the date notice of the record date is first publicly disclosed, or the Proposing Stockholder (or a

4

Exhibit 3.2

qualified representative of the Proposing Stockholder) does not appear at the meeting to present the proposed business or nominations, such business or nominations shall not be considered, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such business or nominations may have been received by the Corporation. The requirements of this Section 2.12 shall apply to any business or nominations to be brought before an annual or special meeting by a stockholder whether such business or nominations are to be included in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act or presented to stockholders by means of an independently financed proxy solicitation. The requirements of the Section 2.12 are included to provide the Corporation notice of a stockholder’s intention to bring business or nominations before an annual or special meeting and shall in no event be construed as imposing upon any stockholder the requirement to seek approval from the Corporation as a condition precedent to bringing any such business or make such nominations before an annual meeting.

The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer, against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties under ERISA, and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery of the State Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.

Exhibit 3.2

Section 6.03. Indemnification Against Expenses. To the extent that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

Section 6.04. Board Determinations. Any indemnification under Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof. Such determination shall be made with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination: (a) by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum; (b) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum; (c) if there are no such disinterested directors, by independent counsel in a written opinion to the Board; or (d) by the stockholders.

Section 6.05. Advancement of Expenses. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director of the Corporation in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized by law or in this Section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents of the Corporation or persons serving at the request of the Corporation as directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

Section 6.06. Nonexclusive. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VI shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office, and shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Section 6.07. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, against any expense, liability or loss asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation or this Article VI.

Section 6.08. Other Indemnification. The Corporation may, by action of the Board of Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the Corporation with the same or lesser scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and officers.

Section 6.09. Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VI, (a) references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the Corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article VI with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued; (b) references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; (c) references to “serving at the request of the Corporation”

11

Exhibit 3.2

shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to any employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and (d) a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.”

Section 6.10. Change in Governing Law. In the event of any amendment or addition to Section 145 of Delaware Law or the addition of any other section to such law which shall limit indemnification rights thereunder, the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law, indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent authorized or permitted hereunder, any person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties under ERISA, and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

Section 6.11. Repeal or Modification of Indemnification. All rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses under this Article VI shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this Article VI is in effect.  Any repeal or modification of this Article VI or any repeal or modification of relevant provisions of Delaware Law or any other applicable laws shall not in any way diminish any rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses of such indemnitee or the obligations of the Corporation arising hereunder with respect to any proceeding arising out of, or relating to, any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such repeal or modification.

Funds Held for Clients and Client Funds Obligation

4. FUNDS HELD FOR CLIENTS AND CLIENT FUNDS OBLIGATION

As part of our payroll and tax filing application, we collect funds for federal, state and local employment taxes from clients, handle applicable regulatory tax filings, correspondence and amendments, remit the funds to appropriate tax agencies, and handle other employer-related services.  Amounts collected by us from clients for their federal, state and local employment taxes earn interest during the interval between receipt and disbursement, as we invest these funds in money market funds and certificates of deposit.  These collections from clients are typically disbursed from one to 30 days after receipt, with some funds being held for up to 120 days.  These investments are shown in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as “Funds held for clients”, and the offsetting liability for the tax filings is shown as “Client funds obligation”.  As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the funds held for clients were invested in demand deposits, certificates of deposit and money market funds.  The interest earned on these funds is included in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net

3. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over our net tangible and identified intangible assets.  We had goodwill of $51.9 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. We have selected June 30 as our annual goodwill impairment testing date and determined there was no impairment as of June 30, 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2014, there were no indicators of impairment.

All of our intangible assets are considered to have finite lives and, as such, are subject to amortization. The components of intangible assets were as follows:

	September 30, 2015
	Weighted Avg. Remaining				Accumulated
	Useful Life		Gross		Amortization			Net
	(Years)
Intangibles:
Customer relationships		1.8	$	13,997	$	(11,547	)	$	2,450

Total		$	17,191	$	(12,095	)	$	5,096

The weighted average remaining useful life of our intangible assets was 3.6 years as of September 30, 2015.  Amortization of intangible assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Organization and Description of Business

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Description of Business

Paycom Software, Inc. (“Software”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management (“HCM”) software delivered as Software-as-a-Service. Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we”, “our”, “us” and the “Company” refer to Software and its consolidated subsidiaries.  

We provide functionality and data analytics that businesses need to manage the complete employment life cycle from recruitment to retirement. Our solution requires virtually no customization and is based on a core system of record maintained in a single database for all HCM functions, including talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and human resources (“HR”) management applications.

The Reorganization

Software and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Payroll Software Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”) were formed as Delaware entities on October 31, 2013 and December 23, 2013, respectively, in anticipation of an initial public offering and were wholly-owned subsidiaries of Paycom Payroll Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) prior to December 31, 2013.

On January 1, 2014, we consummated a reorganization pursuant to which (i) affiliates of Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P. (“WCAS X”), WCAS Capital Partners IV, L.P. (“WCAS Capital IV”) and WCAS Management Corporation (collectively, “WCAS”), contributed WCAS Paycom Holdings, Inc. (“WCAS Holdings”) and WCAS CP IV Blocker, Inc. (“CP IV Blocker”), which collectively owned all of the Series A Preferred Units of Holdings, to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software and (ii) the owners of outstanding Series B Preferred Units of Holdings contributed their Series B Preferred Units of Holdings to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software. Immediately after these contributions, Merger Sub merged with and into Holdings with Holdings surviving the merger.  Upon consummation of the merger, the remaining holders of outstanding common and incentive units of Holdings received shares of common stock and restricted stock of Software for their common and incentive units by operation of Delaware law and Holdings’ ownership interest in Software was cancelled. Outstanding common units, Series B Preferred Units and incentive units of Holdings, WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker were contributed to Software in exchange for, or converted into, an aggregate of 45,708,573 shares of common stock and 8,121,101 shares of restricted stock of Software. Prior to the reorganization, WCAS Holdings held Series C Preferred Units of Holdings in the amount of $46.2 million and WCAS Holdings had a note payable to a related party due April 3, 2017, in the amount of $46.2 million. Following these transactions, all outstanding Series C Preferred Units were eliminated in an intercompany transaction between Holdings and WCAS Holdings, and we assumed the 14% Note due 2017 issued by WCAS Holdings (the “2017 Note”). Following the reorganization, Software became a holding company with its principal assets being the Series B Preferred Units of Holdings and the outstanding capital stock of WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker (collectively, the “2014 Reorganization”).

Initial Public Offering

On April 21, 2014, we closed our initial public offering whereby an aggregate of 7,641,750 shares of our common stock were sold to the public (including 4,606,882 shares of common stock issued and sold by us and 3,034,868 shares of common stock sold by certain selling stockholders) at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders. The total gross proceeds we received from the offering were $69.1 million. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, the aggregate net proceeds we received totaled approximately $62.8 million. We used all of the net proceeds from the offering, together with approximately $3.3 million from existing cash, for the repayment in full of the 2017 Note and the 10% Senior Note due 2022 issued by us to WCAS Capital IV.

Follow-On Public Offering

On January 21, 2015, we closed our follow-on public offering, whereby 6,422,750 shares of our common stock were sold to the public by certain selling stockholders at a public offering price of $22.50 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Registered Block Trade Transactions

On May 20, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $36.25 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

On September 15, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 4,500,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $37.95 per share.  On September 23, 2015, the underwriter exercised its option to purchase an additional 675,000 shares from WCAS X and WCAS Capital IV.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial statements that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.  Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  In addition to these normal adjustments, on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we combined the accounts “Income tax receivable” and “Income tax payable” and the accounts “Deferred tax assets” and “Deferred tax liabilities” in order to conform to the current period presentation.  The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include income taxes, contingencies, the useful life for property and equipment and intangible assets, the life of our client relationships, the fair value of our stock-based awards and the fair value of our financial instruments, intangible assets and goodwill. These estimates are based on historical experience where applicable and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under circumstances. As such, actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

An award issued under the Paycom Software, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is classified as a share based liability and recorded at the fair value of the award.  Expense is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight line basis over the requisite service period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance which included a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 31, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted.  In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard for public and non-public entities reporting under U.S. GAAP and on July 9, 2015, the FASB approved the one year deferral.  The effective date of the amended standard will begin in periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for share-based payments which requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable for the period(s) in which the requisite service has already been rendered. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for intangibles related to internally developed software.  The new guidance will assist entities in evaluating the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement.  The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs.  Under the new guidance, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability.  The new guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.  Debt issuance costs are currently included on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset.

In July 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which simplifies the measurement of inventory.  Under the new guidance, an entity should measure inventory (as defined within the scope of the guidance) at the lower of cost or new realizable value.  The new guidance applies to all inventory except inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method.  Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predicable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.  The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

12. INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes is based on a current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items.  Significant management judgment is required in estimating operating income in order to determine our effective income tax rate.  The estimated effective income tax rate was 41.79% and 42.13% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.  The estimated effective income tax rate was 38.57% and 39.11% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.  The higher effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 is primarily the result of an increase in the applicable statutory federal tax rate.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Description of Business

Description of Business

Paycom Software, Inc. (“Software”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management (“HCM”) software delivered as Software-as-a-Service. Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we”, “our”, “us” and the “Company” refer to Software and its consolidated subsidiaries.  

We provide functionality and data analytics that businesses need to manage the complete employment life cycle from recruitment to retirement. Our solution requires virtually no customization and is based on a core system of record maintained in a single database for all HCM functions, including talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and human resources (“HR”) management applications.

The Reorganization

The Reorganization

Software and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Payroll Software Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”) were formed as Delaware entities on October 31, 2013 and December 23, 2013, respectively, in anticipation of an initial public offering and were wholly-owned subsidiaries of Paycom Payroll Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) prior to December 31, 2013.

On January 1, 2014, we consummated a reorganization pursuant to which (i) affiliates of Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P. (“WCAS X”), WCAS Capital Partners IV, L.P. (“WCAS Capital IV”) and WCAS Management Corporation (collectively, “WCAS”), contributed WCAS Paycom Holdings, Inc. (“WCAS Holdings”) and WCAS CP IV Blocker, Inc. (“CP IV Blocker”), which collectively owned all of the Series A Preferred Units of Holdings, to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software and (ii) the owners of outstanding Series B Preferred Units of Holdings contributed their Series B Preferred Units of Holdings to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software. Immediately after these contributions, Merger Sub merged with and into Holdings with Holdings surviving the merger.  Upon consummation of the merger, the remaining holders of outstanding common and incentive units of Holdings received shares of common stock and restricted stock of Software for their common and incentive units by operation of Delaware law and Holdings’ ownership interest in Software was cancelled. Outstanding common units, Series B Preferred Units and incentive units of Holdings, WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker were contributed to Software in exchange for, or converted into, an aggregate of 45,708,573 shares of common stock and 8,121,101 shares of restricted stock of Software. Prior to the reorganization, WCAS Holdings held Series C Preferred Units of Holdings in the amount of $46.2 million and WCAS Holdings had a note payable to a related party due April 3, 2017, in the amount of $46.2 million. Following these transactions, all outstanding Series C Preferred Units were eliminated in an intercompany transaction between Holdings and WCAS Holdings, and we assumed the 14% Note due 2017 issued by WCAS Holdings (the “2017 Note”). Following the reorganization, Software became a holding company with its principal assets being the Series B Preferred Units of Holdings and the outstanding capital stock of WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker (collectively, the “2014 Reorganization”).

Initial Public Offering

Initial Public Offering

On April 21, 2014, we closed our initial public offering whereby an aggregate of 7,641,750 shares of our common stock were sold to the public (including 4,606,882 shares of common stock issued and sold by us and 3,034,868 shares of common stock sold by certain selling stockholders) at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders. The total gross proceeds we received from the offering were $69.1 million. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, the aggregate net proceeds we received totaled approximately $62.8 million. We used all of the net proceeds from the offering, together with approximately $3.3 million from existing cash, for the repayment in full of the 2017 Note and the 10% Senior Note due 2022 issued by us to WCAS Capital IV.

Follow-On Public Offering

Follow-On Public Offering

On January 21, 2015, we closed our follow-on public offering, whereby 6,422,750 shares of our common stock were sold to the public by certain selling stockholders at a public offering price of $22.50 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Registered Block Trade Transactions

Registered Block Trade Transactions

On May 20, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $36.25 per share.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

On September 15, 2015, we closed an underwritten secondary offering of 4,500,000 shares of our common stock by WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, each of our executive officers and certain other selling stockholders at a public offering price of $37.95 per share.  On September 23, 2015, the underwriter exercised its option to purchase an additional 675,000 shares from WCAS X and WCAS Capital IV.  We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial statements that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.  Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  In addition to these normal adjustments, on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we combined the accounts “Income tax receivable” and “Income tax payable” and the accounts “Deferred tax assets” and “Deferred tax liabilities” in order to conform to the current period presentation.  The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include income taxes, contingencies, the useful life for property and equipment and intangible assets, the life of our client relationships, the fair value of our stock-based awards and the fair value of our financial instruments, intangible assets and goodwill. These estimates are based on historical experience where applicable and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under circumstances. As such, actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2015.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

An award issued under the Paycom Software, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is classified as a share based liability and recorded at the fair value of the award.  Expense is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight line basis over the requisite service period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance which included a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 31, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted.  In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard for public and non-public entities reporting under U.S. GAAP and on July 9, 2015, the FASB approved the one year deferral.  The effective date of the amended standard will begin in periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for share-based payments which requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable for the period(s) in which the requisite service has already been rendered. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for intangibles related to internally developed software.  The new guidance will assist entities in evaluating the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement.  The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs.  Under the new guidance, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability.  The new guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2016.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.  Debt issuance costs are currently included on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset.

In July 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which simplifies the measurement of inventory.  Under the new guidance, an entity should measure inventory (as defined within the scope of the guidance) at the lower of cost or new realizable value.  The new guidance applies to all inventory except inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method.  Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predicable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.  The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients, client funds obligation and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients and client funds obligation approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of the instruments.

We did not have any financial instruments that were measured on a recurring basis at either September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

Employee Savings Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan

6. EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN AND EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

Our employees that are over the age of 21 and have completed ninety (90) days of service are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan. We have made a Qualified Automatic Contribution Arrangement (“QACA”) election, whereby we make a matching contribution for our employees equal to 100% of the first 1% of salary deferrals and 50% of salary deferrals between 2% and 6%, up to a maximum matching contribution of 3.5% of salary each plan year. We are allowed to make additional discretionary matching contributions and discretionary profit sharing contributions. Employees are 100% vested in amounts attributable to salary deferrals and rollover contributions. The QACA matching contributions will be 100% vested after two years of employment from the date of hire. If an employee terminates service prior to completing two years of employment, the employee will not be vested in these QACA matching contributions. The discretionary contributions vest 100% after two years of employment from the date of hire. Matching contributions amounted to $0.6 million and $1.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.  Matching contributions amounted to $0.4 million and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.

On May 5, 2015, our stockholders approved the ESPP.  The ESPP allows, at the beginning of each offering period, eligible employees to elect to contribute, through payroll deductions, up to 10% of their compensation, subject to an annual per employee maximum, to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of 85% of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date.  Each offering period of the ESPP lasts six months and the maximum number of shares that may be acquired by a participant during each offering period is 2,000 shares. The shares reserved for purposes of the ESPP are shares we purchase in the open market and the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be acquired by participants under the ESPP is 2,000,000 shares.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, eligible employees purchased 24,935 shares of the Company’s common stock under the ESPP.  Compensation expense related to the ESPP is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.  Our compensation expense related to the ESPP was $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid rent on our Dallas office space in the amounts of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The Dallas office building is owned by 417 Oakbend, LP, a Texas limited partnership. Our Chief Sales Officer owns a .01% general partnership interest and a 10.49% limited partnership interest in 417 Oakbend, LP.

We incurred $1.0 million of registration and legal fees in connection with the underwritten secondary offerings in 2015, which were charged to general and administrative expense and from which we did not receive any proceeds.  The payment of such fees included expenses on behalf of related parties and was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee.

In April 2014, we paid off the balance of the 2017 Note that was issued by WCAS Holdings and was payable to WCAS X, a related party, with proceeds from our initial public offering.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed in a similar manner to basic EPS after assuming the issuance of shares of common stock for all potentially dilutive shares of restricted stock whether or not they are vested.

In accordance with ASC Topic 260 “Earnings Per Share”, the two-class method determines earnings for each class of common stock and participating securities according to an earnings allocation formula that adjusts the income available to common stockholders for dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings.  Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and, therefore, are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.  The outstanding restricted shares of stock that were issued on July 8, 2015, are considered participating securities.

Stockholders' Equity and Incentive Compensation

9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

On January 1, 2014, we consummated the 2014 Reorganization, pursuant to which (i) affiliates of WCAS contributed WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker, which collectively owned all of the Series A Preferred Units of Holdings, to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software and (ii) the owners of outstanding Series B Preferred Units of Holdings contributed their Series B Preferred Units of Holdings to Software in exchange for shares of common stock of Software. Immediately after these contributions, Merger Sub merged with and into Holdings with Holdings surviving the merger. Upon consummation of the merger, the remaining holders of outstanding common and incentive units of Holdings received shares of common stock of Software for their common and incentive units by operation of Delaware law and Holdings’ ownership interest in Software was cancelled. Outstanding common units, Series B Preferred Units and WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker were contributed to Software in exchange for, or converted into, 45,708,573 shares of common stock and 8,121,101 shares of restricted stock of Software.

The shares of restricted stock were issued subject to various vesting conditions. A portion of the restricted stock was subject to time-based vesting conditions, while a portion was subject to market-based vesting conditions. The market-based vesting conditions were based on our total enterprise value exceeding certain specified thresholds. Following these transactions, all outstanding Series C Preferred Units were eliminated in an intercompany transaction between Holdings and WCAS Holdings, and we assumed the 2017 Note. As a result of the 2014 Reorganization, we recorded a one-time reclassification of $29.3 million of accumulated deficit to additional paid in capital on January 1, 2014. Following the 2014 Reorganization, Software became a holding company with its principal assets being the Series B Preferred Units of Holdings and the outstanding capital stock of WCAS Holdings and CP IV Blocker.  

Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with time-based vesting conditions was measured based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions was measured based upon the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based upon the probability that the vesting conditions would be met. For restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions, 50% of the restricted stock vested upon reaching a total enterprise value of $1.4 billion on December 1, 2014 and the remaining 50% of the restricted stock vested upon reaching a total enterprise value of $1.8 billion on March 2, 2015.  The associated compensation expense adjusted for actual forfeitures was $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 for the vesting of the restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions on March 2, 2015.  The total net compensation expense for the vesting of the restricted stock with time and market-based vesting conditions was $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

There was $0.3 million and $0.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested time-based restricted stock outstanding as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years as of September 30, 2015.

On May 5, 2015, our stockholders approved the Paycom Software, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”).  The Incentive Plan provides for the payment of incentive compensation that is not subject to certain federal income tax deduction limitations.  Participation in the Incentive Plan is limited to certain of our employees designated by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.  

On July 8, 2015, we issued an aggregate of 741,931 shares of restricted stock to each of our executive officers and certain non-executive employees under the Paycom Software, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”), of which 477,200 shares are subject to market-based vesting conditions and 264,731 shares are subject to time-based vesting conditions.  The fair value of each share of restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions is estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model.  This model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term and expected dividend yield.  Expected volatilities used in the model are based on historical volatilities of comparable guideline companies until a sufficient trading history in the Company’s common stock exists.  The annual volatility assumed in the model was 26%.  An expected dividend yield of 0% is applied given that the Company has not paid any dividends.  The risk-free interest rate of 2.2% is derived from the implied yield available on 10 year U.S. Treasury securities with a remaining term equivalent to that of the applicable shares as of the valuation date.  The expected term represents the period that the applicable shares of restricted stock are expected to be outstanding.  The Company determined the expected term assumption based on the vesting terms and contractual terms of the restricted stock.  The Company is required to estimate forfeitures and only record compensation costs for those awards that are expected to vest.

Restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions will vest 50% when the Company reaches a total enterprise value of $2.65 billion and 50% when the Company reaches a total enterprise value of $3.5 billion.  Restricted stock with time-based vesting conditions will vest over periods of three or five years.  Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with time-based vesting conditions was measured based on the fair value of the underlying shares of restricted stock on the grant date (which was equal to the closing price of our common stock of $33.33 on the grant date) and will be recognized over the requisite service periods on a straight-line basis.  Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with market-based vesting conditions was measured based on the fair value of the underlying shares of restricted stock on the grant date, which was $21.76 or $27.24 depending on the enterprise value target.  Compensation expense for restricted stock with market-based vesting conditions will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of 2.3 to 4.2 years.  Our compensation expense related to the LTIP was $1.4 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.  There was $17.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested restricted stock outstanding as of September 30, 2015.  The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years as of September 30, 2015.

We do not receive any cash proceeds from the vesting of our restricted stock.  The capitalized cash stock-based compensation expense related to software developed for internal use of $31 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and $4 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2014, was included in software and capitalized software costs in “Property and equipment, net” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Employment Agreements

We have employment agreements with certain of our executive officers. The agreements allow for annual compensation, participation in executive benefit plans, and performance-based cash bonuses.

Funding Agreement

In March 2010, we entered into a funding agreement with the Oklahoma City Economic Development Trust (the “Trust”) and the City of Oklahoma City. The Trust provided $2.0 million worth of certain public infrastructure improvements related to our newly constructed principal executive offices in northwest Oklahoma City. In exchange for the infrastructure improvements provided, we agreed to create at least 492 jobs over a five year period, with an average first year salary in excess of $37 thousand and make a minimum capital investment in the project of at least $15.0 million. We further agreed that we would be responsible for repayment of any amount that was not offset by earned job creation payments. As of December 31, 2014, we had fulfilled our obligation for these job creation payments.  

Legal Proceedings

On September 23, 2014, National Financial Partners Corp. (“NFP”) filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the “District Court”) (Civil Action No. 1:14-cv-07424). The complaint alleged trademark infringement, unfair competition, deceptive trade practices, consumer fraud and deceptive business practices related to the adoption and use of our logo and sought preliminary and permanent injunctions prohibiting us from continued infringement as well as money damages, including an accounting for sales and profits, attorneys’ fees and disgorgement of profits. NFP also moved for an order preliminarily enjoining us from using our logo.  On April 30, 2015, we filed an opposition to NFP’s motion for preliminary injunction.  On May 7 and 8, 2015, the District Court held a hearing on NFP’s motion for a preliminary injunction.  On June 10, 2015, the District Court entered an order granting a preliminary injunction in favor of NFP and thereafter issued its preliminary injunction on June 16, 2015.  On June 16, 2015, we filed an appeal of the District Court’s order and preliminary injunction to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (Case No. 15-2289).  We further sought a stay of the preliminary injunction pending the appeal.  On June 30, 2015, the District Court granted our motion for a stay pending appeal.  On June 25, 2015, we filed an offer of judgment seeking to resolve all pending claims between the parties and terminate the action with the payment of $20 thousand by Paycom Payroll, LLC and an agreement to change our logo within 60 days.  Our offer of judgment was accepted by NFP and the District Court entered a judgment pursuant to the offer of judgment on July 6, 2015, terminating the District Court action.  The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals case was terminated on July 8, 2015.

We are involved in various other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Operating Leases and Deferred Rent

We lease office space under several noncancellable operating leases with contractual terms expiring from 2015 to 2021. Minimum rent expenses are recognized over the lease term. The lease term is defined as the fixed noncancellable term of the lease plus all periods, if any, for which failure to renew the lease imposes a penalty on us in an amount that a renewal appears, at the inception of the lease, to be reasonably assured. When a lease contains a predetermined fixed escalation of the minimum rent, we recognize the related rent expense on a straight-line basis and record the difference between the recognized rent expense and the amount payable under the lease as a liability. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $0.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively, recorded as a liability for deferred rent.

Rent expense under operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, was $1.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively.  Rent expense under operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, was $1.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

The 2021 Consolidated Loan matures on May 30, 2021.  Under the 2021 Consolidated Loan, interest is payable monthly and accrues at a fixed rate of 4.75% per annum. The 2021 Consolidated Loan is secured by a mortgage covering our headquarters and certain personal property relating to our headquarters.

The 2021 Consolidated Loan includes certain financial covenants, including maintaining a fixed charge coverage ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges (defined as current maturities of long-term debt, interest expense, rent expense and distributions), of greater than 1.2 to 1.0, which is measured on a quarterly basis. We were in compliance with all of the covenants as of September 30, 2015.

As of September 30, 2015, the carrying value of our total long-term debt, including current portion, was $26.1 million, which approximated its fair value. As of December 31, 2014, the carrying value of our total long-term debt, including current portion, was $27.0 million, which approximated its fair value. The fair value of fixed rate long-term debt is estimated based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and maturities.

On May 13, 2015, we entered into a loan agreement with Kirkpatrick Bank to finance the expansion of our headquarters (the “Construction Loan”).  The Construction Loan allows for the borrowing of a maximum aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) $11.0 million or (ii) 80% of the appraised value of the constructed property.  We did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Construction Loan as of September 30, 2015.  The Construction Loan matures on the earlier of the completion of construction or November 13, 2016, with variable interest accruing at the greater of (i) the prime rate, plus 50 basis points or (ii) 4.0%.  At maturity, the outstanding principal balance of the Construction Loan will be automatically converted to a 78-month term loan.  The term loan will accrue fixed interest at the prevailing 7/20 London Interbank Offered Rate swap interest rate that is in effect as of the commencement date, plus 225 basis points.
