What the Analysts think about APEI

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for American Public Education stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Consolidated revenue for Q2 2025 grew 6.5% year-over-year to $162.8 million, surpassing the $161 million consensus, indicating steady demand across all educational segments.
Adjusted EBITDA for Q2 2025 rose 38.2% year-over-year to $15.1 million, exceeding guidance and demonstrating enhanced operational leverage.
In May 2025, the Department of Education lifted growth restrictions on Rasmussen University, eliminating enrollment caps and releasing a $24.5 million letter of credit, which strengthened cash reserves and supports future expansion.
Despite revenue and EBITDA growth, APEI posted a net loss of $0.3 million in Q2 2025, due to a $3.5 million charge from redeeming preferred equity, highlighting ongoing volatility in bottom-line results.
General and administrative expenses rose 10.8% year-over-year to $38.1 million and accounted for 23.4% of revenue in Q2 2025, partly from professional fees tied to restructuring, indicating rising overhead.
Transformation efforts—including selling Graduate School USA and redeeming all Series A Senior Preferred Stock—have produced one-time gains and cost reductions factored into guidance, casting doubt on the sustainability of earnings improvements.
