Reports Q1 revenue $236.2M vs $275.4M last year. Eilif Serck-Hanssen, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to report favorable new enrollment results during the recently completed main intake cycle in Peru and secondary intake cycle in Mexico, further reinforcing the resiliency of our business model. With increased visibility into the remainder of the year, we are tightening the range on our full-year 2025 guidance, raising the mid-point for both Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. We remain confident in the growing demand for quality higher education in both Mexico and Peru even in a time of economic uncertainty, driven by rising participation rates and the significant wage premium earned by graduates. With our leading brands and strong digital capabilities, we are ideally positioned to capitalize on those growth opportunities. In addition, we remain committed to continuing to return excess capital to shareholders, supported by a strong balance sheet and our cash-accretive business model.”
