About Perdoceo Education

Perdoceo Education Corporation helps adults earn college degrees through online classes. Its schools provide training for careers in healthcare and business. The company uses software to personalize learning for its students.

Degrees for Modern Careers

  • Colorado Technical University: Provides degree programs from associate to doctoral levels; generated $115.5 million in revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
  • American InterContinental University System: Offers career-focused academic programs through its university system; generated $57.2 million in revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
  • University of St. Augustine: Specializes in graduate health sciences degrees like physical therapy and nursing; generated $40.5 million in revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
  • intellipath Platform: Proprietary personalized learning tool used across institutions to adapt coursework to individual student needs.

How the Company Grows

  • Updated digital content for search engines powered by artificial intelligence to maintain brand visibility.
  • Introduced new learning modalities for the occupational therapy program at University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences.
  • Expanded corporate student programs to offer degree opportunities to employees of partner organizations.
  • Invested in generative artificial intelligence to identify and engage with prospective students who are likely to succeed.

Why It Stands Out

Perdoceo uses a proprietary platform called intellipath to provide personalized education to approximately 46,830 students. The company focuses its curriculum on career-aligned fields such as healthcare, cybersecurity, and nursing to meet specific employer needs.

Quarterly Financial Results

  • Total revenue rose 1.8% to $213.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
  • Net income reached $48.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, up 16.9% year over year.
  • Operating income for the American InterContinental University System segment rose 9.7% to $12.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026.
  • Cash and available-for-sale short-term investments totaled $734.8 million as of June 30, 2026.

Bottom Line

Perdoceo has transitioned into a technology-focused education provider by integrating artificial intelligence and personalized learning tools into its curriculum. Its focus on healthcare and corporate partnerships supports a stable enrollment base across its three academic institutions.
