Service revenue grew 6.7% YoY to $308.8M driven by 7.1% enrollment growth, with net income up 5.2% to $75.3M.

Largest Expense Items

Counseling services and support$91.9M+5.8% YoY

Increased employee compensation, share-based compensation, benefits, and occupancy/depreciation costs to support enrollment growth and increased headcount.

Marketing and communication$64.0M+6.1% YoY

Increased advertising costs of $3.1M to market university partners' programs and new locations, plus higher employee compensation and occupancy expenses.

Watch Items from the Filing

GCU concentration: 90.3% of total service revenue in Q1 2026 (vs. 90.4% in Q1 2025). Heavy dependence on single customer creates sustained revenue risk if GCU operations decline.
Pending litigation: Three putative class actions alleging false or misleading marketing representations regarding GCU graduate program disclosures. Company cannot estimate loss range; discovery ongoing with no trial date set.
Revenue per student declined slightly YoY due to contract modifications (lower revenue share but no faculty cost reimbursement), online mix shift to lower net tuition students, and ground student decline.
Off-campus site expansion: 47 total sites with planned one to two new openings in H2 2026, offset by one partner's teach-out of three sites in Q1 2026; 20 university partners total as of March 31, 2026.

AI Insight: LOPE Financial Trends

Q1 2026 revenue hit $309M — a new single-quarter high — but net income margin compressed versus Q1 2025 as equity eroded $85M over two quarters.

• Revenue grew from $289M in Q1 2025 to $309M in Q1 2026, a 7% year-over-year gain.

• Operating income rose from $88M in Q1 2025 to $95M in Q1 2026, expanding op margin from ~30.4% to ~30.7%.

• Net income in Q3 2025 collapsed to $16M — the weakest quarter in the dataset — versus $41M in Q3 2024.

• Equity has declined from $784M in Q4 2024 to $696M in Q1 2026, a $88M contraction over four quarters.

⚠ Q3 operating income dropped sharply to $18M in Q3 2025 from $48M in Q3 2024 — monitor whether seasonal weakness deepens.

⚠ Operating cash flow swung to -$49M in Q3 2025; back-to-back negative Q3 OCF quarters warrant scrutiny.

⚠ Total debt data is absent across all periods — leverage position remains unverifiable and is a key blind spot.
