Lincoln Educational Services Reports Double Digit Growth in Revenue and Student Starts During
Second Quarter 2024
Conference Call Today at 10 a.m. ET
PARSIPPANY, N.J., August 8, 2024 – Lincoln
Educational Services Corporation (Nasdaq: LINC) today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, as well as recent business developments.
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights*
| • |
Revenue grew 16.1% to $102.9 million
|
| • |
Student starts increased 12.3%; 11.4% increase in quarter-end student population
|
| • |
Net loss of $700,000 and Adjusted EBITDA of $6.2 million
|
| • |
Total liquidity of more than $100 million; no debt outstanding
|
| • |
New East Point, Georgia Campus student starts to date exceeds full year plan
|
| • |
Raised outlook for full year Revenue; raised lower end of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and student starts; reduced 2024 capital expenditures due to timing
|
*Note: The highlighted financial results exclude the Transitional segment results of the prior year. A reconciliation of GAAP / non-GAAP measures is included in this
release.
“We continued our strong performance during the second quarter with revenue growing 16.1%, student starts increasing 12.3% and adjusted EBITDA more than doubling
compared to last year," commented Scott Shaw, President & CEO. “The transformational growth strategies we have set in place are enabling Lincoln to capitalize on the American public’s increased interest in educational alternatives to a
traditional four-year college degree while employers continue to face a workforce skills gap, which is driving demand for our graduates.”
“We remain focused on improving our efficiency as we grow, while always striving to improve our student experience and outcomes. The rollout of our hybrid teaching
platform, Lincoln 10.0, which is nearing completion, supports these objectives and plays a critical role in the key components of our growth strategy, new campus development and program replication at existing campuses. The first new campus in East
Point, Georgia opened in March is off to an exceptionally strong start with student starts during its first four months exceeding our original forecast for the full year.”
“During the second quarter, we continued the buildouts of our campus relocations in Nashville, Tennessee and Levittown, Pennsylvania, which are both expected to open in
the first half of 2025. We are also continuing work on our new campus in Houston, Texas which is now anticipated to welcome students by the end of 2025. We anticipate announcing another new campus in the upcoming months as we continue to expand our
footprint.”

“We continued to develop our existing corporate partnerships and are in various stages of negotiations with new partners. The workforce development partnership with
Container Maintenance Corporation (CMC) began operations in June at CMC’s Charleston, South Carolina facility. We believe our company has unique capabilities to expand workforce development programs to capitalize on this significant opportunity and
are executing plans to realize this potential.”
“Our performance over the first six months of 2024, combined with our outlook into the second half of the year, leads us to raise our outlook for our full year revenue and
increase the low end of the range of our adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and student start metrics. We are focused on realizing our full potential for our students, instructors, partners and shareholders and the first six months of 2024
position Lincoln to achieve our growth objectives for 2024 and beyond.”
2024 SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
(Quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to June 30, 2023)
| • |
Revenue grew by $14.3 million, or 16.1% to
$102.9 million. The increase was primarily due to an 11.7% increase in average student population resulting from entering this quarter with 11.2% more students combined with new student start growth of 12.3%. Revenue per student also
helped drive overall growth in revenue.
|
| • |
Benefit for income taxes was $0.5 million resulting from a pre-tax loss and a discrete item, compared to a tax provision
of $6.8 million in the prior year mainly driven by a $30.9 million gain recognized on the sale of the Nashville, Tennessee property.
|

SECOND QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS
Campus Operations Segment
Revenue increased $14.7 million, or 16.7% to $102.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased $5.4 million or 52.9% to $15.8 million, from $10.3 million in the prior year.
Transitional Segment
The Somerville, Massachusetts campus teach-out was completed in the fourth quarter of 2023. In the prior year comparable period, the Somerville campus
had revenue of $0.4 million and operating expenses of $0.9 million.
Corporate and Other
This category includes unallocated expenses incurred on behalf of the entire Company. Corporate and other expense were $10.7 million and $11.1 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively, after excluding a $30.9 million gain in the prior year resulting from the sale of the Nashville, Tennessee property. The decrease in expense from the prior year was primarily driven
by a reduction in stock-based compensation expense resulting from last year’s cumulative catch-up of expense due to meeting financial performance targets, partially offset by additional salaries and benefits expense resulting in part from student
population growth.
SIX MONTHS FINANCIAL RESULTS
(Quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to June 30, 2023)
| • |
Total revenue increased $30.4 million, or 17.3%, to $206.3 million, compared to $175.9 million.
|
| • |
Campus Operations Segment revenue increased $31.7 million, or 18.2% to $206.2 million, compared to $174.5 million.
|
| • |
Transitional Segment revenue decreased $1.4 million, or 100% to zero, compared to $1.4 million.

FULL YEAR 2024 OUTLOOK
Based on second quarter operating and financial results, as well as the outlook for the
remainder of the year, the Company is raising the financial guidance for revenue and raising the lower end range for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and student starts. Additionally, the Company is reducing the capital expenditures guidance
due to timing of capital spend from 2024 to 2025 primarily related to the Company’s new Houston, Texas campus. Also, the campus relocations in Nashville, Tennessee and Levittown, Pennsylvania buildouts are slightly ahead of schedule and are
expected to open in the first half of 2025. Updated, guidance for the full year 2024 is outlined below:

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company believes it is useful to present
non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain significant items as a means to understand the performance of its business. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and total liquidity are measures not recognized in financial statements
presented in accordance with GAAP.
6
| • |
We define EBITDA as income (loss) before interest expense (net of interest income), provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization.
|
| • |
We define adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus stock compensation expense and adjustments for items not considered part of the Company’s normal recurring operations.
|
| • |
We define adjusted net income as net income plus adjustments for items not considered part of the Company’s normal recurring operations.
|
| • |
We define total liquidity as the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash.
|
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and total liquidity are presented because we believe they are useful indicators of the Company’s performance and ability to make strategic
investments and meet capital expenditures and debt service requirements. However, they are not intended to represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and should not be used as an alternative to net income (loss) as indicators of
operating performance or cash flow as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and total liquidity are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and total liquidity:
