Management Discussion
- In the first quarter of 2024, we generated $290.3 million in revenue compared to $256.6 million for the same period in 2023. Our income from operations was $41.4 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to a loss from operations of $1.3 million for the same period in 2023, primarily due to higher revenue driven by enrollment growth in the USHE and Australia/New Zealand segments and growth in Sophia Learning subscriptions in the Education Technology Services segment, lower restructuring costs, and lower amortization expense of intangible assets. Net income in the first quarter of 2024 was $29.7 million compared to a net loss of $2.0 million for the same period in 2023, and diluted earnings per share was $1.23 in the first quarter of 2024 compared to diluted loss per share of $0.09 for the same period in 2023.
