Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Revenue Growth ResilienceConsistent revenue growth, including +5.23% in FY2025, indicates persistent demand for core education services and supports medium-term top‑line durability. Steady sales reduce reliance on one-off events and provide a base for margin recovery if costs are controlled and enrollment trends hold.
Strong EBITDA MarginA 46.7% EBITDA margin signals underlying operational efficiency and pricing power in core offerings. Even with near-term earnings volatility, high underlying margins imply the business can generate strong operating profits once fixed costs are absorbed and enrollment or utilization recovers.
Positive Operating Cash FlowSustained positive operating cash flow (148.6M in FY2025) shows the business can generate cash from core operations. This supports near‑term liquidity and investment flexibility, reducing immediate solvency risk even as free cash flow and earnings display short‑term pressure.
Bears Say
FY2025 Net LossThe transition to a -73.0M net loss represents a material deterioration in profitability and erodes retained earnings. Persistent losses can deplete equity, constrain reinvestment, and pressure credit terms, making recovery dependent on sustained revenue improvement or structural cost reductions.
Rising LeverageLeverage increasing to ~1.53x (from ~0.94x) shifts the capital structure toward debt, raising fixed obligations and refinancing risk. Higher leverage reduces financial flexibility, magnifies earnings volatility impact on equity, and makes the company more sensitive to cash flow shocks or higher interest costs.
Negative Free Cash Flow TrendConsecutive negative free cash flows indicate cash generation hasn't covered capex or working capital needs. This persistent cash burn can force external financing, limit strategic investment, and heighten liquidity risk if operating cash flow weakens further or capital spending remains elevated.
