Nov 5▼ DownEarnings6 articles
Perdoceo Education reported third-quarter adjusted earnings and revenue that beat analyst estimates, with sales of $215.863 million topping the $211.071 million consensus, and also raised its full-year 2026 GAAP and adjusted EPS outlooks. However, the company guided fourth-quarter adjusted EPS to $0.68-$0.72 and GAAP EPS to $0.63-$0.67, both well below analyst estimates of $0.83 and $0.74, respectively. Despite the strong quarterly results and raised annual outlook, the weak Q4 guidance appears to have driven the stock down 11.01% to close at $26.55, near its low of $26.41. The direction signal is down, as the disappointing forward guidance overshadowed the positive earnings beat.
