Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Strategic Education stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of Strategic Education have broadly outperformed its industry in a year's time. Its earnings estimates for 2018 and 2019 have remained stable over the past 60 days. The company’s Strayer and Capella segment exhibited stellar enrollment results during the third quarter. The company’s focus on competency-based and non-degree programs helped post higher revenues during the quarter. Also, its affordable and flexible programs encourage students to complete the studies. Yet, continuous decline in revenue per student due to tuition cuts and an unfavorable mix of students toward lower undergraduate tuition are causes of concern." (1/16/2019)
