What's Driving LAUR's Business? Latest 10-Q Breakdown

29/29 datapoints verified

AI-extracted from the 10-Q filed 2026-07-30 — Q2 FY2026 (quarter ended June 30, 2026). Every figure is machine-verified against the filing text on SEC EDGAR.

Laureate's Q2 FY2026 revenue rose 17% YoY to $615.9M, but $51.1M of the $91.7M increase came from favorable FX (peso and sol strengthening) rather than underlying growth.

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Peru$346.9M+13% YoY

Constant-currency revenue grew 6% on higher enrollment, plus an FX tailwind from the strengthening Peruvian nuevo sol

Mexico$269.0M+24% YoY

Constant-currency revenue grew 10% on higher enrollment and pricing/product mix, plus an FX tailwind from the strengthening Mexican peso

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Total revenue: $615.9M+17% YoY

Peru$346.9M+13% YoY

Mexico$269.0M+24% YoY

Constant-currency revenue grew 10% on higher enrollment and pricing/product mix, plus an FX tailwind from the strengthening Mexican peso

Largest Expense Items

General and administrative expenses$14.2M-5% YoY

Increase included in combined direct cost and G&A FX and operational cost drivers

Margins: Operating income rose 16% to $223.4M from $193.3M, driven by higher operating income at both the Peru and Mexico segments, even as direct costs and G&A combined grew 19% on FX translation and enrollment-driven operating costs.

Watch Items from the Filing

FX tailwinds contributed $51.1M of the quarter's $91.7M revenue increase, as the Mexican peso and Peruvian nuevo sol strengthened against the USD.
Share repurchase authorization nearly exhausted ($0.2M remaining of $400M) as of June 30, 2026; Board approved a further $150M increase on July 30, 2026.
Peru subsidiary UPN entered a new PEN 205M (~$60M) term loan on June 30, 2026, pledging assets at four campuses as collateral, with financial covenants effective September 30, 2026.
Operations are concentrated entirely in Mexico and Peru, exposing revenue to currency devaluation, inflation, and political/regulatory risk in just two countries.
