LAUREATE EDUCATION REPORTS SECOND QUARTERAND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2020 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Company Increases Its Full-Year 2020Guidance

Signed Agreement to Sell Australia andNew Zealand Businesses for $643 Million

BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - August 6, 2020

  • Laureate Education, Inc. (NASDAQ: LAUR) today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30,

Second Quarter 2020 Highlights (comparedto second quarter 2019):

On a reported basis, revenue decreased 20% to $791.7 million, due primarily to the weakening of<br>foreign currencies against the US Dollar and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, including changes to timing of the academic calendar.<br>On an organic constant currency basis^1^, revenue decreased by 8%.
Operating loss for the second quarter of 2020 was $(254.8) million, driven by impairment charges<br>of $445.1 million, as compared to operating income of $217.2 million for the second quarter of 2019.
--- ---
Net loss (including discontinued operations) for the second quarter of 2020 was $(311.6) million,<br>attributable to the impairment charges, as compared to net income of $779.6 million for the second quarter of 2019, which was largely<br>attributable to gains from asset sales.
--- ---
Adjusted EBITDA was $259.0 million, a decrease of $39.8 million, due primarily to the weakening<br>of foreign currencies against the US Dollar. On an organic constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.0 million and<br>was ahead of guidance driven primarily by tight cost controls and the acceleration of productivity initiatives.
--- ---

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020Highlights (compared to six months ended June 30, 2019):

New enrollments decreased 11%, down 8% excluding the divestiture of UniNorte Brazil in the prior<br>year. New enrollment volumes were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Total enrollments decreased 8%, down 5% excluding the divestiture of UniNorte Brazil in the prior<br>year.
--- ---
On a reported basis, revenue decreased 17% to $1,320.2 million, due primarily to the weakening<br>of foreign currencies against the US Dollar and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, including changes to timing of the academic<br>calendar. On an organic constant currency basis, revenue decreased 6%.
--- ---
Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $(371.9) million, driven by impairment<br>charges of $448.9 million, as compared to operating income of $125.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
--- ---
Net loss (including discontinued operations) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $(213.3)<br>million, mainly attributable to the impairment charges partially offset by a discrete tax benefit, as compared to net income (including<br>discontinued operations) of $973.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, which was largely attributable to gains<br>from asset sales.
--- ---
Adjusted EBITDA was $222.2 million, a decrease of $47.0 million, due primarily to the weakening<br>of foreign currencies against the US Dollar. On an organic constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA decreased $7.3 million.
--- ---

Eilif Serck-Hanssen, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Laureate delivered a solid second quarter with Adjusted EBITDA results that were ahead of expectations in large part due to tight cost controls and the acceleration of productivity initiatives. Our total enrollment base remains relatively stable, our liquidity position is strong, and we have seen a reversal in some of the FX headwinds that we were facing in the early stages of this pandemic. The past five months have demonstrated the resiliency of Laureate's business model, enabled by our ability to deliver innovative and high-quality educational offerings at affordable prices.”

^1^Organic constant currency results exclude the period-over-period impact from currency fluctuations, acquisitions and divestitures, and other items.

Mr. Serck-Hanssen added, “We remain committed to our strategic review process as evidenced by our announcement last week to sell our Australia and New Zealand businesses at a highly accretive multiple.”

Second Quarter 2020 Results

For the second quarter of 2020, revenue on a reported basis was $791.7 million, a decrease of $200.7 million, or 20%, compared to the second quarter of 2019, due to the weakening of foreign currencies against the US Dollar and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, including changes to timing of the academic calendar. On an organic constant basis, revenue decreased 8%. The operating loss for the second quarter of 2020 was $(254.8) million, compared to an operating income of $217.2 million for the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $(472.0) million, affected by impairment charges of $445.1 million and weaker currencies. The impairment charge for the second quarter was primarily attributable to our Chilean operations. During the second quarter, the Company identified an impairment indicator and completed a valuation of the fair value of our Chilean operations. This analysis revealed that the range of values that could be expected to be realized was lower than the carrying value of our Chilean reporting unit. Net loss (including discontinued operations) for the second quarter of 2020 was $(311.6) million, attributable to the impairment charges, as compared to net income (including discontinued operations) of $779.6 million for the second quarter of 2019, which included a $641.5 million gain primarily related to the sale of our institutions in Spain and Portugal. Basic and diluted loss per share were $(1.47) for the second quarter of 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA was $259.0 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $39.8 million, compared to the second quarter of 2019, due primarily to the weakening of foreign currencies against the US Dollar, as revenue softness was largely offset by cost actions. On an organic constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.0 million and was ahead of guidance driven primarily by tight cost controls and the acceleration of productivity initiatives.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020Results

New enrollments for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased 11%, compared to new enrollment activity for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Excluding the sale of UniNorte (Brazil) in the prior year, new enrollments decreased 8% reflecting the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, while total enrollments were relatively stable, down 5%, as a result of solid re-enrollments. Excluding the divestiture of UniNorte Brazil, new enrollments in Brazil were down 13%. New enrollments in Mexico and Andean regions were down 5% and 7%, respectively. Rest of World grew new enrollments by 31% as compared to the prior-year period as Australia continues to scale up. For Online & Partnerships, enrollments continue to be affected by the planned transition away from lower revenue and margin producing international students. For Walden's core domestic portfolio, new enrollments increased 3% and total enrollments were essentially flat versus the same period in the prior year. On an organic basis, total enrollments through June 30, 2020 were down 5% compared to the period ended June 30, 2019.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, revenue on a reported basis was $1,320.2 million, a decrease of $273.3 million, or 17%, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, due to the weakening of foreign currencies against the US Dollar and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, including changes to the timing of the academic calendar. On an organic constant currency basis, revenue decreased 6%. The operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $(371.9) million, compared to an operating income of $125.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $497.0 million. Operating loss during the 2020 period was driven by impairment charges of $448.9 million. Net loss (including discontinued operations) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $(213.3) million, attributable to the impairment charges partially offset by a discrete tax benefit, as compared to net income (including discontinued operations) of $973.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 that was largely attributable to gains from asset sales. Basic and diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $(1.00).

Adjusted EBITDA was $222.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $47.0 million, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, due primarily to the weakening of foreign currencies against the US Dollar, as revenue softness was largely offset by cost actions. On an organic constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA decreased $7.3 million.

Balance Sheet and Capital Structure

Laureate has a strong financial position with $629.6 million in cash as of June 30, 2020, which does not include $34.2 million of cash recorded at subsidiaries that were classified as held for sale at June 30, 2020. Additionally, these balances do not include over $750 million in gross proceeds expected from our previously announced pending asset sales in Australia/New Zealand and Malaysia.

The significant deleveraging of the Company's balance sheet over the past two years has resulted in a current net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of below 2x. The Company's revolving credit facility and senior notes are not due until 2024 and 2025, respectively.

2020 Outlook

Laureate is updating its full-year 2020 guidance to reflect an improved outlook, as well as the reclassification of the Company’s Rest of World segment to Discontinued Operations reflecting the recently announced agreement to sell its businesses in Australia and New Zealand.

Based on current foreign exchange spot rates^2^, Laureate expects its full-year 2020 results to be as follows:

Continuing Operations

Total enrollments estimated to be approximately 786,000 students;
Revenues estimated to be in the range of $2,490 to $2,590 million; and
--- ---
Adjusted EBITDA estimated to be in the range of $510 to $540 million.
--- ---

Consolidated Operations

Free Cash Flow, defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, expected to be in the<br>range of $150 million to $180 million.

This updated guidance assumes that all entities currently included within continuing operations remain there for the entirety of 2020 (except for the Rest of World segment as discussed above). If and when additional entities are required to be moved to discontinued operations during 2020, guidance will be revised.

Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP measures (2020 Adjusted EBITDA outlook and 2020 Free Cash Flow outlook) to the relevant forward-looking GAAP measures are not being provided, as Laureate does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments for such outlooks and reconciliations. Due to this uncertainty, the Company cannot reconcile projected Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow to projected net income and operating cash flow, respectively, without unreasonable effort.

Please see the “Forward-Looking Statements” section in this release for a discussion of certain risks related to this outlook.

^2^ Based on actual FX rates for January-July 2020, and current spot FX rates (local currency per U.S. Dollar) of MXN 21.98, BRL 5.16, CLP 766.00, PEN 3.52 and AUD 1.40 for August - December 2020. FX impact may change based on fluctuations in currency rates in future periods.

Conference Call

Interested parties are invited to listen to the earnings call by dialing 1-855-307-2849 (for U.S.- based callers) or 1-703-639-1262 (for international callers), and requesting to join the Laureate conference call, conference ID 9792205. Replays of the entire call will be available through August 13, 2020, at 1-855-859-2056 (for U.S.- based callers) and at 1-404-537-3406 (for international callers), conference ID 9792205. The webcast of the conference call, including replays, and a copy of this press release and the related slides will be made available through the Investor Relations section of Laureate’s website at www.laureate.net.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes statements that express Laureate’s opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, ‘‘forward-looking statements’’ within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Laureate’s actual results may vary significantly from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as ‘‘believes,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘seeks,’’ ‘‘approximately,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘estimates’’ or ‘‘anticipates’’ or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to (i) guidance (including, but not limited to, total enrollments, revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, costs, capital expenditures, and Free Cash Flow), (ii) our planned divestitures, the expected proceeds generated therefrom and the expected reduction in revenue resulting therefrom, (iii) our exploration of strategic alternatives and potential future plans, strategies or transactions that may be identified, explored or implemented as a result of such review process and (iv) the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business or the global economy as a whole are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. All of these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, including, with respect to our exploration of strategic alternatives, risks and uncertainties as to the terms, timing, structure, benefits and costs of any divestiture or separation transaction and whether one will be consummated at all, and the impact of any divestiture or separation transaction on our remaining businesses. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as updated in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 and other filings made or to be made with the SEC. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the time of this release and we do not undertake to publicly update or revise them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) throughout this press release, Laureate provides the non-GAAP measurements of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. We have included these non-GAAP measurements because they are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short- and long-term operational plans.

Adjusted EBITDA consists of income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. The exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a key input into the formula used by the compensation committee of our board of directors and our Chief Executive Officer in connection with the payment of incentive compensation to our executive officers and other members of our management team. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

4

Free Cash Flow consists of operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow provides a useful indicator about Laureate’s ability to fund its operations and repay its debts.

Laureate’s calculations of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are not necessarily comparable to calculations performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled from the GAAP measure in the attached table “Non-GAAP Reconciliation.”

We evaluate our results of operations on both an as reported and an organic constant currency basis. The organic constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, acquisitions and divestitures, and other items. We believe that providing organic constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, consistent with how we evaluate our performance. We calculate organic constant currency amounts using the change from prior-period average foreign exchange rates to current-period average foreign exchange rates, as applied to local-currency operating results for the current period, and then exclude the impact of acquisitions and divestitures and other items described in the accompanying presentation.

1 © 2020 Laureate Education, Inc. Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Presentation August 6, 2020

2 © 2020 Laureate Education, Inc. Forward Looking Statements This presentation includes statements that express Laureate’s opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, ‘‘forward - looking statements’’ within the meaning of the federal secur ities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Laureate’s actual results may vary significantly from the results anticipated in these forward - looking statements . You can identify forward - looking statements because they contain words such as ‘‘believes,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘seeks,’’ ‘‘approxim ate ly,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘estimates’’ or ‘‘anticipates’’ or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to (i) gu idance (including, but not limited to, total enrollments, revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, costs, capital expenditures, and Free Cash Flow (ii) our planned divestitures, the ex pec ted proceeds generated therefrom and the expected reduction in revenue resulting therefrom, (iii) our exploration of strategic alternatives and potential futu re plans, strategies or transactions that may be identified, explored or implemented as a result of such review process and (iv) the potential impact of the COVID - 19 pandemic on our business or the global economy as a whole are forward - looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward - lookin g public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. All of these forward - looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, including, with respect to our exploration of strategic alternatives, risks and uncertainties as to the terms, timi ng, structure, benefits and costs of any divestiture or separation transaction and whether one will be consummated at all, and the impact of any divestiture or separa tio n transaction on our remaining businesses. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward - looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our act ual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2020, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q filed and to be filed with the SEC and other filings made with the SEC. These forward - looking statements sp eak only as of the time of this release and we do not undertake to publicly update or revise them, whether as a result of new information, future events or o the rwise, except as required by law. In addition, this presentation contains various operating data, including market share and market position, that are based on in ternal company data and management estimates. While management believes that our internal company research is reliable and the definitions of our markets which are used herein are appropriate, neither such research nor these definitions have been verified by an independent source and there are inherent challenges and limitat ion s involved in compiling data across various geographies and from various sources, including those discussed under “Market and Industry Data” in Laureate’s filing s w ith the SEC.

3 © 2020 Laureate Education, Inc. Presentation of Non - GAAP Measures In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) throughout this p res entation, Laureate provides the non - GAAP measurements of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Free Cash Flow. We have included these non - GAAP measurements be cause they are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short - and long - term operational plans. Adjusted EBITDA consists of income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted for the items included in the accompanying rec onc iliation. The exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period - to - period comparisons of our core business. Addi tionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a key input into the formula used by the compensation committee of our board of directors and our Chief Executive Officer in connec tio n with the payment of incentive compensation to our executive officers and other members of our management team. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA an d Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenues, provide useful information to investors and others in understand ing and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. Free Cash Flow consists of operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow provides a useful indicator about L aur eate’s ability to fund its operations and repay its debts. Laureate’s calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Free Cash Flow are not necessarily comparable to calcu lat ions performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non - GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepare d in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled from the GAAP measure in th e attached table “Non - GAAP Reconciliation.” We evaluate our results of operations on both an as reported and an organic constant currency basis. The organic constant cur ren cy presentation, which is a non - GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, acquisitions and divestitures, and othe r i tems. We believe that providing organic constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, consist ent with how we evaluate our performance. We calculate organic constant currency amounts using the change from prior - period average foreign exchange rates to current - period average foreign exchange rates, as applied to local - currency operating results for the current period, and then exclude the impact of acquisitio ns and divestitures and other items described in the accompanying presentation.
