Grand Canyon Education Reports Q2 2026 Earnings with Revenue Growth
Grand Canyon Education (LOPE) reported second-quarter earnings for fiscal year 2026, showing strong performance across several key metrics. Service revenue reached $264 million, a 6.7% increase from the prior year driven by enrollment growth and higher summer school enrollments. Non-GAAP diluted EPS came in at $1.81, surpassing both previous-year results and analyst estimates. The company's operating income rose to $58.2 million with an expanded margin of 22%, attributed to cost reductions and revenue gains. Total partner enrollment grew by 7.6% year over year, including a significant increase in off-campus laboratory sites. GCU Online saw a 7.8% rise in enrollments despite challenging comparisons from the prior period. Grand Canyon Education also announced new academic programs set for launch later this year and an amended master services agreement that will impact revenue recognition but is expected to have minimal effect on operating income.
