American Public Education: A Compelling Buy with Strong Growth Potential and Strategic VisionWe were highly encouraged by the ambitious long-term targets outlined by management at its inaugural investor day in New York this week. We thought the entire team did an excellent job communicating these goals to investors, and our confidence in leadership has increased accordingly (execution has been consistently improving over the last year). While achieving a 10% organic revenue CAGR (2025–2029) with 20% adjusted EBITDA margins by 2029 will require strong execution, we believe the stock can work well just getting anywhere close to these financial targets. For-profit education peers trade at roughly 8 times forward EBITDA with midsingle-digit revenue growth and 20% EBITDA margins on average. In comparison, APEI trades roughly two turns below peers despite targets that now point to faster top-line and margin levels consistent with the group.
