- Q2 earnings inflected from loss to profit: net income available to common stockholders improved to $9.8 million (diluted EPS $0.52) in Q2 2026 from a $0.3 million loss in Q2 2025.
- Health+ segment returned to positive EBITDA: in Q2 2026 Health+ generated $86.2 million in revenue and $2.7 million of EBITDA, up from $0.3 million in Q2 2025, moving from near breakeven to a positive margin.
- Institutional consolidation completed: the combination of American Public University System, Rasmussen University, and Hondros College of Nursing into one HLC-accredited institution simplifies the structure and may support future efficiencies.
Negative
- Third quarter EBITDA expected to decline: Q3 2026 adjusted EBITDA is guided to $14.0–$17.0 million, below $20.7 million in Q3 2025, indicating a near-term step down in profitability despite modest revenue growth.
- Q3 2026 EPS guided below prior year: diluted EPS is forecast at $0.18–$0.29 versus $0.30 in Q3 2025, reflecting margin pressure in the near-term outlook.

It cautions that these exclusions include expenses required under GAAP, so adjusted EBITDA should be read with the GAAP results rather than as a substitute for them.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA less non-cash expenses such as stock compensation and non-recurring expenses), adjusted EBITDA margin, segment EBITDA, and segment EBITDA margin. APEI believes that the use of these measures is useful because they allow investors to better evaluate APEI's operating profit and cash generation capabilities.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, excludes stock compensation, loss on disposals of long-lived assets, other professional fees, and in the three months ended June 30, 2025, loss on sale of subsidiary.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The principal limitation of our non-GAAP measures is that they exclude expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded. In addition, non-GAAP measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses are excluded.
APEI is presenting EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA in connection with its GAAP results and urges investors to review the reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the comparable GAAP financial measures that are included in the tables following this press release (under the captions "GAAP Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA" "GAAP Outlook Net Income to Outlook Adjusted EBITDA" and “Education Unit Profile – Segment Summary”) and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business.
