Recent Business Developments
•
In April, Lincoln amended its credit agreement, increasing its aggregate principal amount of its revolving credit facility to $125 million. The additional $65 million in available liquidity enhances Lincoln’s financial flexibility to execute its growth initiatives and meet its long-term operating objectives.
“The first quarter financial and operating results illustrate the substantial progress made towards achieving our objective of providing the best education and training for in-demand careers while generating consistent, increasing returns to our shareholders,” said Scott Shaw, CEO and President. “In a constantly evolving market, we are continuing to experience high employer demand for our graduates and increasing interest in our programs as awareness of the rewarding long-term career opportunities created through skilled trades continues to expand. Our carefully executed strategies of new campus development and program replication, combined with continued growth from our core operations have combined to create a strong start to 2026.
“The 19.5% student start growth during the first quarter exceeded our expectations, which has led to increasing our student start growth guidance for the full year to between 10% and 14%. We have now grown starts for fourteen consecutive quarters, with about half of the increase attributed to organic growth, comprised of our campuses and programs operating over one year. This performance, combined with our graduation rate and placement rates, attests to our expanding leadership in the market.
“The relocations and program expansions at our Nashville, Tennessee and Levittown, Philadelphia campuses, as well as our new campus in Houston, Texas, are all meeting our expectations. Moreover, the development of our new Hicksville, New York and Rowlett, Texas campuses remain on schedule to begin enrollment during the fourth quarter of this year and first quarter of next year, respectively. At the same time, we are actively negotiating two additional greenfield locations to expand our best-in-class campuses and presence into other under-served U.S. markets.
“We also are investing in people and processes to continuously drive superior outcomes, which is positively impacting our student retention rate. Additionally, we continue to develop our corporate partnerships, expand our high school initiatives, as well as execute strategies to attract and build our veteran student population. These efforts are designed to begin yielding meaningful contributions as we turn into 2027.
“In addition to our overall growth across all key metrics, the first quarter bottom-line outperformance is largely attributed to increased operating efficiencies throughout our organization. We also generated cash from our operating activities during the first quarter, which has typically been a negative cash flow period for the company. These results, combined with our outlook for the remainder of the year, enable us to raise our 2026 guidance. This strong start to the year and our increased credit facility are important first strides as we advance towards our recently announced 2030 objectives of $850 million in revenue and $150 million of EBITDA, while continuing to build on our leadership position in providing superior education for in-demand careers.”
