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

✓ 25/25 datapoints verified

AI-extracted from Grand Canyon Education, Inc.'s 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.

GCE grew Q2 FY2026 service revenue 6.7% YoY to $264.0 million and net income rose 10.4% to $45.9 million, driven by 7.6% growth in university partner enrollments to 126,231.

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Service revenue$264.0M+6.7% YoY

Increase primarily due to 7.6% growth in university partner enrollments to 126,231, partially offset by a slight decline in revenue per student.

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Total revenue: $264.0M+6.7% YoY

Service revenue$264.0M+6.7% YoY

Increase primarily due to 7.6% growth in university partner enrollments to 126,231, partially offset by a slight decline in revenue per student.

Within Service revenue

GCU enrollments121,921 students+7.5% YoY

GCU is the Company's most significant university partner, driving the bulk of revenue growth.

Off-campus classroom and laboratory sites5,829 students+16.8% YoY

ABSN and other off-campus partner students generate significantly higher revenue per student than the GCU agreement due to higher revenue-share percentages and tuition rates.

Largest Expense Items

Counseling services and support$88.1M+6.1% YoY

Increased employee compensation and benefits ($4.7M) and occupancy/depreciation costs ($0.6M) from headcount added to support university partner enrollment growth.

Marketing and communication$60.0M+7.0% YoY

Increased advertising spend ($3.6M) to market university partners' programs and new locations.

Technology and academic services$45.6M+5.8% YoY

Higher employee compensation/benefits, other technology and academic costs, and occupancy/depreciation from increased enrollment and headcount.

General and administrative$10.1M-11.4% YoY

Decrease primarily due to lower professional (legal) fees.

Margins: Technology and academic services (17.3% vs 17.4%), counseling services and support (33.4% vs 33.5%), and G&A (3.8% vs 4.6%) all declined as a percentage of revenue on operating leverage from an increasing revenue base, while marketing ticked up slightly (22.7% vs 22.6%).

Watch Items from the Filing

GCU represented 89.4% of total service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, concentrating the business in a single university partner.
Three putative class actions (Smith and Wang, Ogdon, Valerio) allege misleading marketing of GCU graduate program costs, timing, and accreditation; discovery is ongoing with no trial dates set and no loss accrued.
The Amended and Restated MSA with GCU, effective July 1, 2026, is estimated to reduce annual service revenue by approximately $20 million, though the Company expects only an immaterial operating income impact.
The Company repurchased $195.7 million of stock in six months ended June 30, 2026, leaving only $148.7 million available under its authorization, which expires March 1, 2027.
The Amended MSA eliminates GCU's right to terminate for convenience and extends the term to 2041, reducing contract-termination risk versus the prior agreement.
