Division Results
Education
Education division revenue totaled $355.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, up 6% from $336.0 million for the same period of 2021. Kaplan reported operating income of $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $9.9 million for the third quarter of 2021.
For the first nine months of 2022, education division revenue totaled $1,066.1 million, up 6% from $1,005.3 million for the same period of 2021. Kaplan reported operating income of $57.8 million for the first nine months of 2022, compared to $42.0 million for the first nine months of 2021.
The COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacted Kaplan’s operating results during 2021 and, to a lesser extent, the first nine months of 2022. Kaplan serves a large number of students who travel to other countries to study a second language, prepare for licensure, or pursue a higher education degree. Government-imposed travel restrictions and

school closures arising from COVID-19 had a negative impact on the ability of certain international students to travel and attend Kaplan’s programs, particularly at Kaplan International’s Language programs (Languages) in 2021.
A summary of Kaplan’s operating results is as follows:

Kaplan International includes postsecondary education, professional training and language training businesses largely outside the United States. Kaplan International revenue increased 15% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 (26% and 23%, respectively, on a constant currency basis). The increase is due largely to growth at Languages, Pathways and UK Professional, partially offset by a decline at Singapore. Kaplan International reported operating income of $8.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to an operating loss of $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2021. Operating income increased to $48.1 million in the first nine months of 2022, compared to $23.3 million in the first nine months of 2021. The improved results are due largely to a reduction in losses at Languages, and improved results at Pathways, partially offset by a decline at Singapore. Overall, Kaplan International’s operating results were negatively impacted by $5 million and $31 million in losses, respectively, incurred at Languages from COVID-19 disruptions for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. The losses incurred at Languages for the first nine months of 2022 were substantially lower than the prior year, and Languages reported an operating profit in the third quarter of 2022.
Higher Education includes the results of Kaplan as a service provider to higher education institutions. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, Higher Education revenue declined 6% and 4%, respectively, due largely to lower costs incurred for reimbursement under the Purdue Global agreement. For the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 and 2021, Kaplan recorded a portion of the fee with Purdue Global based on an assessment of its collectability under the TOSA. Enrollments at Purdue Global for the first nine months of 2022 were approximately the same as the first nine months of 2021. The Company will continue to assess the collectability of the fee with Purdue Global on a quarterly basis to make a determination as to whether to record all or part of the fee in the future and whether to make adjustments to fee amounts recognized in earlier periods. Higher Education results declined in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 due to increased investment costs incurred related to other university agreements, partially offset by an increase in the Purdue Global fee recorded.
Supplemental Education includes Kaplan’s standardized test preparation programs and domestic professional and other continuing education businesses. In November 2021, Supplemental Education acquired two small businesses. Supplemental Education revenue declined 1% and 2% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively, due largely to declines in retail comprehensive test preparation demand, offset in part by growth in demand for professional certifications. Overall, demand for graduate and pre-college test preparation programs has declined due to the strength of U.S. employment markets and the decline in test-takers. Operating results declined in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 due to lower revenues and increased advertising and product development costs.
Kaplan corporate and other represents unallocated expenses of Kaplan, Inc.’s corporate office, other minor businesses and certain shared activities.

Television Broadcasting
Graham Media Group, Inc. owns seven television stations located in Houston, TX; Detroit, MI; Orlando, FL; San Antonio, TX; Jacksonville, FL; and Roanoke, VA, as well as SocialNewsDesk, a provider of social media management tools designed to connect newsrooms with their users. Revenue at the television broadcasting division increased 7% to $135.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, from $126.5 million in the same period of 2021. The revenue increase is due primarily to a $19.4 million increase in political advertising revenue, partially offset by a decline in other categories from fewer available advertising spots, and a small decline in retransmission revenues. Operating income for the third quarter of 2022 increased 29% to $52.3 million, from $40.6 million in the same period of 2021, due to increased revenues and a reduction in incentive compensation costs.
Revenue at the television broadcasting division increased 6% to $381.0 million in the first nine months of 2022, from $360.1 million in the same period of 2021. The revenue increase is due to a $24.4 million increase in political revenue, a $2.8 million increase in retransmission revenues, and increases from winter Olympics and Super Bowl advertising revenue at the Company’s NBC affiliates in the first quarter of 2022. Operating income for the first nine months of 2022 increased 21% to $131.9 million, from $109.1 million in the same period of 2021, due to increased revenues and a reduction in incentive compensation costs. While per subscriber rates from cable, satellite and OTT providers have grown, overall subscribers are down due to cord cutting across all platforms, resulting in retransmission revenue net of network fees in 2022 expected to be flat compared with 2021, and this trend is expected to continue in the future.
Manufacturing
Manufacturing includes four businesses: Hoover, a supplier of pressure impregnated kiln-dried lumber and plywood products for fire retardant and preservative applications; Dekko, a manufacturer of electrical workspace solutions, architectural lighting and electrical components and assemblies; Joyce/Dayton, a manufacturer of screw jacks and other linear motion systems; and Forney, a global supplier of products and systems that control and monitor combustion processes in electric utility and industrial applications.
Manufacturing revenues increased 23% and 3% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively. The revenue growth for the third quarter of 2022 is due primarily to significantly increased revenues at Hoover due to higher wood prices and increased product demand. The revenue growth for the first nine months of 2022 is due to increased revenues at Dekko, Joyce and Forney, partially offset by a reduction in revenues at Hoover from lower wood prices in the first half of 2022, but overall modestly higher product demand. Wood prices were highly volatile in 2021 and the first nine months of 2022. Overall, Hoover results included wood gains on inventory sales for both the first nine months of 2022 and 2021; however, wood gains on inventory sales were higher in the first nine months of 2022. For the third quarter of 2022, Hoover results included modest wood losses on inventory sales, compared with significant wood losses on inventory sales in the third quarter of 2021. Manufacturing operating results increased significantly in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022. Operating results increased for the third quarter of 2022 due primarily to a $26.7 million goodwill impairment charge recorded at Dekko during the third quarter of 2021 and significantly improved results at Hoover due to substantial wood losses on inventory sales in the third quarter of 2021. Operating results increased for the first nine months of 2022 due primarily to the Dekko goodwill impairment charge in 2021 and improved results at Hoover and Forney. Excluding the impact of wood gains and losses, Hoover results improved in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022.
Healthcare
Graham Healthcare Group (GHG) provides home health and hospice services in seven states. In December 2021, GHG acquired two small businesses, one of which expanded GHG’s home health operations into Florida. In May 2022, GHG acquired two small businesses, one of which expanded GHG’s home health operations into Kansas and Missouri. In July 2022, GHG acquired a 100% interest in a multi-state provider of Applied Behavior Analysis clinics and in August 2022, GHG acquired two small businesses, which expanded GHG’s hospice services into Missouri and Ohio. GHG provides other healthcare services, including nursing care and prescription services for patients receiving in-home infusion treatments through its 75% interest in CSI Pharmacy Holdings Company, LLC (CSI).
Healthcare revenues increased 57% and 44% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively, largely due to significant growth at CSI and from businesses acquired in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the first nine months of 2022, along with growth in home health and hospice services. The increase in GHG operating results in the third quarter of 2022 is due to improved results at CSI, partially offset by net losses from newly acquired businesses and increased marketing, human resources, recruiting and business development costs and overall increased compensation and transportation costs in nursing and clinical staffing. The decline in GHG operating results in the first nine months of 2022 is due to net losses from newly acquired businesses, increased marketing, human resources, recruiting and business development costs and overall increased compensation and transportation costs in nursing and clinical staffing, partially offset by improved results at CSI.

The Company also holds interests in four home health and hospice joint ventures managed by GHG, whose results are included in equity in earnings of affiliates in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded equity in earnings of $1.5 million and $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively, from these joint ventures. The Company recorded equity in earnings of $5.1 million and $8.0 million for the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the first quarter of 2022, GHG, through its Residential Home Health Illinois and Residential Hospice Illinois affiliates, acquired an interest in the home health and hospice assets of NorthShore University HealthSystem, an integrated healthcare delivery system serving patients throughout the Chicago, IL area. The transaction resulted in a decrease to GHG’s interest in Residential Hospice Illinois and a $0.6 million non-operating gain was recorded in the first quarter of 2022 related to the change in interest.
Automotive
Automotive includes six automotive dealerships in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area: Ourisman Lexus of Rockville, Ourisman Honda of Tysons Corner, Ourisman Jeep Bethesda and Ourisman Ford of Manassas, which was acquired on December 28, 2021, from the Battlefield Automotive Group. In addition, on July 5, 2022, the Company acquired a Toyota dealership and a Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep-Ram (CDJR) dealership in Woodbridge, VA from the Lustine Automotive Group. Christopher J. Ourisman, a member of the Ourisman Automotive Group family of dealerships, and his team of industry professionals operate and manage the dealerships; the Company holds a 90% stake.
Revenues for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 increased significantly due to the acquisitions of the Ford, Toyota and CDJR dealerships and sales growth at the Jeep dealership due to an increase in new vehicle inventory provided by the manufacturer and higher average new and used car selling prices at the Jeep, Lexus and Honda dealerships as a result of strong customer demand and new vehicle inventory shortages related to supply chain disruptions and production delays at vehicle manufacturers, partially offset by decreased revenues at the Honda and Lexus dealerships due to volume declines as a result of inventory shortages. Operating results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 improved significantly due largely to the Ford, Toyota and CDJR acquisitions and improved results at the Jeep dealership due to increased sales and margins, and at the Lexus dealership due to increased margins, offset by declines at the Honda dealership due to inventory shortages.
Other Businesses
Leaf Group
On June 14, 2021, the Company acquired Leaf Group Ltd. (Leaf), a consumer internet company, headquartered in Santa Monica, CA, that builds enduring, creator-driven brands that reach passionate audiences in large and growing lifestyle categories, including fitness and wellness (Well+Good, Livestrong.com and MyPlate App), and home, art and design (Saatchi Art, Society6 and Hunker). Leaf has three major operating divisions: Society6 Group and Saatchi Art Group (Marketplace businesses) and the Media Group. For the third quarter of 2022, revenue for Society6 Group and the Media Group declined, while Saatchi Art Group reported revenue growth. Overall, Leaf reported significant operating losses for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022.
Clyde’s Restaurant Group
Clyde’s Restaurant Group (CRG) owns and operates ten restaurants and entertainment venues in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, including Old Ebbitt Grill and The Hamilton. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, CRG temporarily closed its restaurant dining rooms in Maryland and the District of Columbia in December 2020, reopening again for limited indoor dining service in February 2021. Various government-ordered dining restrictions continued until the middle of 2021. CRG’s operating results are seasonal with the second and fourth quarters generally stronger than the first and third quarters. CRG incurred an operating loss for the third quarter of 2022, while reporting a small operating profit for the first nine months of 2022. Both revenues and operating results improved significantly from the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 due largely to the absence of government-ordered dining restrictions in 2022 and a favorable rent concession recorded in the second quarter of 2022. Improvement in both revenue and operating results is expected to continue in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Framebridge
Framebridge is a custom framing service company, headquartered in Washington, D.C., with sixteen retail locations in the Washington, D.C., New York City, Atlanta, GA, Philadelphia, PA, Boston, MA and Chicago, IL areas and two manufacturing facilities in Kentucky and New Jersey. Framebridge opened an additional store in the New York City area in October 2022. Framebridge revenues increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 due to operating additional retail stores compared to the same periods in 2021. Framebridge is an investment stage business and reported significant operating losses in the first nine months of 2022 and 2021.

Code3
Code3 is a performance marketing agency focused on driving performance for brands through three core elements of digital success: media, creative and commerce. Code3 revenue declined in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 due to sluggish marketing spending by certain advertising clients. Code3 reported operating losses in each of the first nine months of 2022 and 2021. In the second quarter of 2021, Code3 recorded a $1.6 million lease impairment charge (including $0.4 million in property, plant and equipment write-downs).
Other
Other businesses also include Slate and Foreign Policy, which publish online and print magazines and websites; and four investment stage businesses, CyberVista, Decile, Pinna and City Cast. Slate, Foreign Policy, CyberVista, Pinna and City Cast reported revenue increases in the first nine months of 2022. Losses from each of these six businesses in the first nine months of 2022 adversely affected operating results. In October 2022, the Company announced a strategic merger of CyberVista and CyberWire, a B2B cybersecurity audio network to form a new parent company, N2K Networks. N2K Networks will focus on expanding its technology platform to enable development of more resilient enterprise cyber workforces, to pioneer new markets, and to create original “news to knowledge” audio brands. In conjunction with the merger, a Series A funding round led by the Company also closed. The Company’s investment in N2K Networks will be reported as an equity method investment.
Overall, for the third quarter of 2022, operating revenues for other businesses declined due largely to decreased revenues at Leaf and Code3, partially offset by an increase at CRG. For the first nine months of 2022, operating revenues for other businesses increased due largely to the Leaf acquisition and increases at CRG and Framebridge. Operating results declined in the first nine months of 2022 due primarily to increased losses at Leaf and Framebridge, partially offset by improved results at CRG.
Corporate Office
Corporate office includes the expenses of the Company’s corporate office and certain continuing obligations related to prior business dispositions.
Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Affiliates
At September 30, 2022, the Company held an approximate 12% interest in Intersection Holdings, LLC (Intersection), a company that provides digital marketing and advertising services and products for cities, transit systems, airports, and other public and private spaces. The Company also holds interests in several other affiliates, including a number of home health and hospice joint ventures managed by GHG and two joint ventures managed by Kaplan. Overall, the Company recorded equity in losses of affiliates of $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to earnings of $13.0 million for the third quarter of 2021. These amounts include $2.7 million in net losses for the third quarter of 2022 from affiliates whose operations are not managed by the Company compared to $16.7 million in net earnings for the third quarter of 2021; this includes losses from the Company’s investment in Intersection in the third quarter of 2022. The Company recorded $6.4 million in write-downs in equity in earnings of affiliates related to one of its investments in the third quarter of 2021.
The Company recorded equity in earnings of affiliates of $2.9 million for the first nine months of 2022, compared to $28.2 million for the first nine months of 2021. These amounts include $2.8 million in net losses for the first nine months of 2022 from affiliates whose operations are not managed by the Company compared to $25.6 million in net earnings for the first nine months of 2021; this includes losses from the Company’s investment in Intersection in the first nine months of 2022 and 2021. The Company recorded $6.4 million in write-downs in equity in earnings of affiliates related to one of its investments in the third quarter of 2021.
