CAPITAL ALLOCATION
On August 6, 2026, the board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share, an increase of 13.3% from the prior quarter, which will be paid on September 10, 2026 to holders of record of common stock as of September 1, 2026. Any decision to pay future cash dividends, however, will be made by the board of directors and depend on the Company’s available retained earnings, financial condition and other relevant factors. The Company expects quarterly dividend payments to be an integral and growing part of its balanced capital allocation strategy that also prioritizes investments in student enrollment, student support and technology projects, as well as evaluating acquisitions and repurchases under our authorized stock repurchase program.

Operating income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to adjusted operating income, and earnings per diluted share, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to adjusted earnings per diluted share, may not follow the same trends stated in the outlook above because of future adjustments made for certain significant and non-cash items. The operating income, adjusted operating income, earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share outlook provided above for the third quarter ending September 30, 2026 and year ending December 31, 2026 are based on the following key assumptions and factors, among others: (i) prospective student interest in our academic institutions' programs and trends in student retention and engagement remain consistent with management’s recent experiences, (ii) no material impact from current or future federal budget reconciliations or other legislative activity on the availability of current levels of federal student aid or the conditions associated with participating in such aid programs, (iii) no significant impact from new or proposed regulations, or from updated interpretations of current regulations, administrative actions by or changes in the structure of federal agencies or other adverse changes in the legal or regulatory environment, including government shutdowns, which may require operational changes in the way the Company’s academic institutions attract, connect with, enroll, support and educate current and prospective students, among other impacts, (iv) any impact on total student enrollments due to elimination of the Grad PLUS loan program will not be material as prospective students are assumed to have access to private lending sources, (v) no significant operating impacts from the settlement with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission or other legal or regulatory matters, (vi) no material disruptions to the availability of the current levels of federal student aid whether due to the restructuring of federal agencies, government shutdowns, staffing related changes or layoffs or changes to congressional funding priorities, (vii) no material impact from the increased use of Artificial Intelligence by prospective students in lieu of traditional Internet search engines, (viii) legal fees relating to current litigation matters remain generally in line with the Company's current expectations, (ix) earnings per diluted share outlook assumes an effective income tax rate of approximately 27.5% for the third quarter and approximately 23.5% for the full year, and (x) excludes any future impact from the Company’s stock repurchase program. Although these estimates and assumptions are based upon management’s good faith beliefs regarding current and future circumstances and actions that may be undertaken, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. In addition, decisions the Company makes in the future as it continues to evaluate diverse strategies to enhance stockholder value may impact the outlook provided above.

UNAUDITED RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP ITEMS (1) (cont’d)
Adjusted operating income and adjusted earnings per diluted share have limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income, operating income, earnings per diluted share, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with and reported under GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity.
Non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in a reconciliation to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide an additional way of viewing the Company’s results of operations and the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
