Pearson Reports 5% Nine-Month Revenue Growth Driven by Virtual Learning
Pearson (PSO) reported a 5% increase in underlying revenue for the nine months ending September 30, 2026, with growth momentum accelerating to 6% during the third quarter. The performance was primarily driven by strong results in the Virtual Learning division, which saw a 17% surge in revenue. Despite the top-line growth, the company has narrowed its profit outlook for 2026. While segments such as Enterprise Learning & Skills and Assessment & Qualifications showed steady gains, the English Language Learning division experienced a 4% decline, offsetting some of the broader momentum.
