Key Financial Trends

Lincoln Educational Services (NASDAQ:LINC) delivered a marked turnaround in Q1 2025, with revenue growth and profitable operations returning after prior losses. However, cash flow remains under pressure from elevated capital expenditures, and liquidity ratios warrant monitoring.

  • Revenue increased 13.7% year-over-year to $117.5 million in Q1 2025, driven by higher enrollments and program offerings.
  • EBITDA rose to $7.22 million (6.1% margin) from $2.53 million (2.4% margin) a year ago, reflecting operational leverage.
  • Net income of $1.94 million (1.7% margin) compared to a $0.21 million loss in Q1 2024, returning LINC to profitability.
  • Earnings per share was $0.06 in Q1 2025 versus breakeven a year earlier.
  • Negative net debt of $28.7 million (cash exceeds debt) bolsters the balance sheet and provides dry powder for investments.
  • Capital expenditures of $19.6 million rose sharply year-over-year as LINC continues to invest in facilities—a sign of growth but a drag on free cash flow.
  • Current ratio of 1.04× and quick ratio of 0.91× suggest coverage of short-term obligations remains thin.
  • Free cash flow to the firm was a negative $53.5 million in Q1 2025, deeper than last year’s $17.6 million outflow, largely due to CapEx.
  • Operating cash flow remained negative $8.38 million, albeit improved from a $14.9 million outflow in Q1 2024.
  • Altman Z-Score of 2.57 (below the 3.0 “safe” threshold) indicates a moderate risk of financial distress if conditions worsen.
