Artisan Small Cap Fund made the following comment about Ceridian HCM Holding Inc. (NYSE:CDAY) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

"Ceridian HCM Holding Inc. (NYSE:CDAY) is a cloud-based provider of payroll and human capital management (HCM) software. We had initiated a position in Q3 after the company won several large enterprise customers (UPS, Amazon UK, among others), which we believe validates its improved Dayforce HCM platform. We believe the company’s product investments over the past several years and changes to its sales organization are starting to pay off through the form of deal wins and margin leverage. These positive data points and a reasonable valuation prompted us to continue to add to the position in Q4."
