Dividend Power Score
A single, comprehensive score designed to measure the true strength of a company’s dividend.
This score combines three essential pillars of dividend quality:
Consistency – Measures how reliable the dividend has been over time, focusing on payment history, stability, and the absence of cuts or suspensions.
Payability – Assesses the company’s financial ability to sustain its dividend, taking into account cash flow, earnings coverage, balance sheet strength, and overall financial health.
Growth – Evaluates the long-term growth of both the dividend and the company’s share price, highlighting businesses that consistently increase payouts while creating shareholder value.
Higher scores identify companies that have historically delivered dependable income alongside sustained dividend growth and long-term capital appreciation.
Company Overview
Insperity, Inc. is a professional services company that operates primarily in the human resources outsourcing and business performance solutions industries. The company is best known as a leading provider of Professional Employer Organization (PEO) services, offering comprehensive HR solutions that allow small and mid-sized businesses to outsource administrative functions while retaining control over day-to-day operations. Insperity’s services are designed to help clients manage workforce complexity, improve employee benefits access, and enhance compliance with employment-related regulations.
The company’s primary revenue is generated through its PEO services, which bundle payroll processing, employee benefits administration, workers’ compensation, HR compliance, and talent management. Insperity serves predominantly small and mid-sized businesses across a broad range of industries, positioning itself through a high-touch service model, proprietary HR technology, and access to large-employer benefit plans. Founded in 1986 as Administaff, Inc., the company rebranded as Insperity in 2011 to reflect its broader business performance focus and expanded service offerings.
Business Operations
Insperity operates through two primary business lines: PEO Services and Workforce Solutions. The PEO Services segment represents the substantial majority of revenue and involves co-employment arrangements in which Insperity becomes the employer of record for tax and benefits purposes while clients manage daily employee activities. Revenue in this segment is primarily derived from worksite employee wages and associated fees.
The Workforce Solutions segment includes non-PEO offerings such as Insperity Workforce Acceleration, Insperity Workforce Optimization, and Insperity Workforce Synchronization, which provide scalable HR support, consulting, and payroll services without a co-employment relationship. Operations are predominantly domestic, with services delivered through a network of sales offices and service centers supported by proprietary HR and payroll technology platforms. The company does not rely heavily on joint ventures and conducts business largely through wholly owned operations.
Strategic Position & Investments
Insperity’s strategic direction centers on expanding its PEO client base, increasing worksite employee counts, and deepening relationships with existing clients through cross-selling of workforce solutions. Growth initiatives emphasize salesforce expansion, technology investments to improve service efficiency, and enhancements to employee benefits offerings to maintain competitive differentiation in the PEO market.
The company has historically pursued organic growth rather than large-scale acquisitions, focusing investments on internal platform development, data analytics, and compliance capabilities. Insperity’s strategy also reflects selective investment in emerging HR technologies and regulatory expertise to address evolving labor laws and benefits requirements. Data inconclusive based on available public sources regarding material minority investments or standalone portfolio companies outside its core operating structure.
Geographic Footprint
Insperity is headquartered in Houston, Texas, and its operations are concentrated in the United States. The company maintains sales and service offices across major U.S. metropolitan areas, providing nationwide coverage to clients in all 50 states. Its geographic reach supports a diverse client base spanning healthcare, construction, manufacturing, professional services, and retail sectors.
While Insperity serves clients with employees in multiple states, its operational and investment footprint is almost entirely domestic. The company does not report significant international subsidiaries or direct foreign operations, and its strategic focus remains on the U.S. market. International exposure is limited to indirect support for U.S.-based clients with globally influenced workforces.
Leadership & Governance
Insperity is led by an executive team with long tenure in the HR outsourcing and PEO industries, emphasizing disciplined growth, service quality, and regulatory compliance. The leadership philosophy centers on long-term value creation through client retention, employee engagement, and operational consistency rather than aggressive expansion or diversification.
