Revenue by Segment
Forward Guidance
The Company is providing the following outlook, subject to the key assumptions identified below. The outlook now incorporates the Trident acquisition, including known acquisition and restructuring costs, as well as known costs associated with COVID-19, such as transitioning our students and employees to a remote environment.
Positive Outlook
- Company expects growth in new and total student enrollments at both universities for the full year of 2020.
- Company expects growth in CTU’s new student enrollments as compared to the prior year quarter.
- AIU’s second quarter new student enrollments are expected to show significant growth due to 50 percent more enrollment days in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the prior year quarter, as well as the Trident acquisition.
- Increase is expected to more than offset the decline in new student enrollments from the first quarter of 2020 such that on a combined basis AIU is expected to show growth for the first half of 2020, even after excluding the positive impact from the Trident acquisition.
- Company expects AIU’s enrollment days for the third and fourth quarters of 2020 to be relatively comparable to the respective prior year periods.
Challenges Ahead
- Prospective student interest in the Company’s programs remains consistent with recent experience.
