Q3 Revenue at $218.9M, Slightly Below Expectations

Reports Q3 revenue $218.9M, consensus $219.87M. "Our Q3 results reinforce our confidence in both the demand environment for our students and the strength of the North Star strategy we've been executing," said Jerome Grant, CEO. "New student starts grew 11%, exceeding our expectations, driven by a robust performance from our UTI division. Additionally, our newer campuses continue to outperform, with UTI-San Antonio and UTI-Atlanta both tracking well ahead of their launch models, validating the diversification strategy we've been pursuing. We have unified all programs under one corporate structure, enabling us to better align resources with demand, improve execution and advance the optimization pillar of North Star while preserving the strength of the UTI and Concorde brands. Student demand is now shifting toward skilled trades faster than anticipated, driving outperformance across newer campuses, capacity expansions and recently launched programs. At the same time, our fourth-quarter high school starts in Auto and Diesel are tracking below plan, as we missed the opportunity to reach every prospective student who expressed interest, creating a clear opportunity to strengthen engagement and improve conversion as we start to look at FY27."

Major Averages Dip as Market Awaits CPI Report

The major averages were mixed but mostly lower despite oil prices pulling back, as yesterday's surge in chip stocks failed to build on its momentum. The fresh pressure on companies in the AI space reflects the lingering skepticism that part of the rally for chips and datacenter suppliers in recent quarters may have been overblown. Oil prices have pulled back after reports of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, easing concerns about a major supply disruption, though investors are largely in wait-and-see mode ahead of tomorrow's CPI inflation report, which could influence expectations for the Fed's path through the second half of the year. Also keeping the market on edge, President Trump said in a social media post that Iranians shot down a U.S. helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz and that "the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack."Get caught up quickly on the top news and calls moving stocks with these five Top Five lists.1.
