What are Wall Street analysts saying about Strayer Education stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Strayer Education stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Strayer Education’s first-quarter 2018 earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate and increased 29.5% year over year. Moreover, revenues improved 1.4% from the prior-year quarter’s figure, owing to higher winter term enrollment. Positive enrollment trend continued in the first quarter with new students and total enrollment up 6% each. Strayer’s convenient, accessible and flexible educational programs are designed to meet the educational needs of working adults. Strayer University is lowering the cost of its programs to enhance affordability. However, tuition cuts and an unfavorable mix of students toward lower undergraduate tuition have resulted in declining revenue per student over the past few quarters. Revenue per student declined approximately 5% in the first quarter of 2018. Importantly, Strayer and Capella decided to merge in an all-stock deal of equal transactions, expected to close in the third quarter of 2018." (5/16/2018)

EBITDA of $4.4 million, and operating EPS of $0.10 compared to our expectations of net revenues of $12.5 million, Adj. EBITDA of $4.5 million, and operating EPS of $0.06. The company reported a fleet-wide time-charter equivalent (TCE) rate of $9,083 per vessel/day during 4Q17, up ~19% vs. 4Q16 and above our forecast of $8,935.
