Scholastic Corp's revenue declined 2.7% year-over-year, from $1.6B to $1.6B. This contraction results in a growth score of 31/100.
Scholastic Corp carries a low D/E ratio of 0.10, meaning only $0.10 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 96/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.
Scholastic Corp's current ratio of 1.23 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 30/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.

Scholastic Corp passes 7 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, all 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.
For every $1 of reported earnings, Scholastic Corp generates $0.90 in operating cash flow ($50.9M OCF vs $56.7M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.
Scholastic Corp earns $1.08 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($15.2M vs $14.1M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
