Gross Margin ImprovementA materially higher gross margin (52.3%) indicates the company has improved cost controls or pricing power in core program delivery. Sustained elevated gross margins provide durable coverage for fixed costs, enabling reinvestment, subsidy of marketing, and resilience through enrollment cycles.
Free Cash Flow GrowthSubstantial free cash flow growth and near-1 conversion of net income to FCF signal improving cash generation quality. Reliable FCF supports debt servicing, working capital needs and strategic investment, increasing financial flexibility despite accounting losses.
