Bulls say
Stride Inc demonstrated strong financial performance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, with total revenue reaching $621 million, reflecting a year-over-year growth of 13% and surpassing consensus expectations by 1%. The company's revenue per enrollment grew by 3.7%, underscored by a notable increase in general education revenue per enrollment, which rose by 6%, signaling effective curriculum offerings and demand for their educational services. Additionally, Stride's adjusted EBITDA surged by 29.2% to $108.4 million, significantly exceeding both internal estimates and analyst consensus, highlighting robust profitability alongside growth in total enrollment, which climbed to 247.7K, marking an 11% year-over-year increase.
Bears say
Stride Inc. has reported mixed Q1 results, with total enrollment slightly below expectations, while revenue and profitability modestly exceeded consensus, indicating potential challenges in maintaining growth momentum. The outlook for FY26 reveals that revenue per enrollment is expected to remain flat year-over-year, compounded by declining gross margins attributed to increased costs associated with a new platform rollout. Additionally, the company's guidance for total revenue growth of $2.48-2.56 billion falls well below consensus estimates, reflecting pressures on operating income due to both gross margin concerns and a significant decline in revenue from its Adult Learning segment.
