“Our third quarter results reflect the strength of our diversified portfolio, with revenue up 5%, including 13% growth in back-up care,” said Stephen Kramer, Chief Executive Officer. “This fall, we were proud to celebrate 40 years of partnering with leading employers to support working families. Our commitment to providing safe, nurturing environments and high-quality care and education for the children and families we serve has guided us since our start in 1986, and I am grateful to our global team, whose dedication brings that commitment to life every day.”

Third Quarter 2026 Results

Revenue increased by $38.7 million, or 5%, to $841.5 million in the third quarter of 2026 from the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to growth in back-up care, partially offset by the reductions in revenue from full service centers that have closed over the last 12 months.

Loss from operations was $187.1 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to income from operations of $120.8 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in income from operations is primarily related to impairment losses of $294.0 million within the international full service operations, partially offset by increased service levels and contributions from our back-up care segment. We had a net loss of $230.7 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $78.6 million for the third quarter of 2025 due to the decrease in income from operations noted above, a higher effective tax rate and higher interest expense. Diluted loss per common share was $4.76 for the third quarter of 2026 compared to earnings per common share of $1.37 for the third quarter of 2025.

In the third quarter of 2026, adjusted EBITDA* increased by $7.2 million, or 5%, to $163.3 million, and adjusted income from operations* increased by $5.7 million, or 5%, to $130.2 million from the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to increased service levels and contributions from the back-up care segment. Adjusted net income* was $87.5 million, a decrease from adjusted net income of $90.1 million in the same period in the prior year, as a result of higher interest expense and an increase to the adjusted effective tax rate, partially offset by the increase in adjusted income from operations noted above. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share* was $1.80 for the third quarter of 2026 compared to $1.57 for the third quarter of 2025.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company operated 979 early education and child care centers with the capacity to serve approximately 112,500 children and their families.

•Revenue of $712 million (increase of 7%)

“We are pleased with the solid start to 2026, with our first quarter results reflecting disciplined execution across the business,” said Stephen Kramer, Chief Executive Officer. “We generated 7% revenue growth, including 12% growth in Back-Up and 6% growth in Full-Service. This marks our sixteenth consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth in our Back-Up Care segment,” Kramer continued. “This sustained performance reflects both the scale of our Back-Up Care service delivery and the significant opportunity we see to continue to growth in this critically important service.”

First Quarter 2026 Results

Revenue increased by $46.7 million, or 7%, to $712.2 million in the first quarter of 2026 from the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to tuition increases at our centers and increased utilization of back-up care, as well as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for our United Kingdom, Netherlands and Australia operations.

Income from operations was $64.9 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $62.3 million for the first quarter of 2025, an increase of 4%. The increase in income from operations is primarily related to operating leverage in our full service center-based child care and back-up care segments from increased service levels, partially offset by an increase in overhead support costs, including investments in technology. Net income was $34.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $38.0 million for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of 10%, due to a higher effective tax rate and higher interest expense, partially offset by the increase in income from operations noted above. Diluted earnings per common share was $0.62 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $0.66 for the first quarter of 2025.

In the first quarter of 2026, adjusted EBITDA* increased by $3.3 million, or 4%, to $95.6 million, and adjusted income from operations* increased by $2.7 million, or 4%, to $64.9 million from the first quarter of 2025, due to increased service levels and contributions from the full service center-based child care and back-up care segments, partially offset by an increase in overhead support costs. Adjusted net income* was $44.6 million, consistent with the same period in the prior year, as a result of the increase in adjusted income from operations offset by higher interest expense. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share* was $0.82 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $0.77 for the first quarter of 2025.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company operated 988 early education and child care centers with the capacity to serve approximately 112,500 children and their families.
