KinderCare Learning Companies reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $672.5 million, up slightly from $668.2 million a year earlier, with growth in its Champions before- and after-school programs offsetting softer early childhood center revenue. The company posted a loss from operations of $272.1 million versus prior-year operating income of $48.8 million, driven mainly by $291.5 million of impairment losses tied to lower market capitalization, underperforming centers, and centers slated for closure. Net loss was $289.8 million, or $2.45 per diluted share, compared with net income of $21.2 million, or $0.18 per share, in the first quarter of 2025. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted EBITDA fell to $52.1 million and adjusted diluted EPS to $0.04, reflecting higher rent, personnel, and operating costs alongside increased marketing investment. As of April 4, 2026, KinderCare operated 1,606 early childhood education centers and 1,159 before- and after-school sites, held $132.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, and had $926.6 million of first-lien term loan debt outstanding. Management raised its full-year 2026 outlook, now expecting revenue of $2.7–$2.75 billion, adjusted EBITDA of $215–$235 million, and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.15–$0.25, citing early progress on marketing and execution initiatives despite enrollment remaining below prior-year levels.
