Nicholas Cortellucci’s rating is based on several strategic moves and strong performance indicators from Global Education Communities. The company has successfully divested Sprott Shaw College, which has not only improved its financial standing with significant net proceeds but also allowed it to concentrate on its core business of student housing. This strategic focus is further supported by the retention of language colleges, which continue to contribute to the student housing demand.
Additionally, the student housing sector has shown resilience, with GEC’s portfolio achieving near-zero vacancy rates, driven by a substantial student population in British Columbia. The company’s robust development plans, backed by elite partners, position it well to capitalize on the existing supply shortage in the region. These factors collectively underpin Cortellucci’s Buy rating for Global Education Communities, reflecting confidence in its strategic direction and market potential.
According to TipRanks, Cortellucci is ranked #9318 out of 9952 analysts.
