The majority of the change in the deferred revenue balance is related to the cyclical nature of services in the Kaplan International division and the derecognition of deferred revenue associated with the sale of the KLG businesses in May 2026 (see Note 2). During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $319.0 million related to the Company’s deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2025, including $59.1 million of prepaid amounts which were refundable at the prior year-end.
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents deferred revenue amounts that will be recognized as revenue in future periods. As of June 30, 2026, the deferred revenue balance related to certain medical and nursing qualifications with an original contract length greater than twelve months at Kaplan Supplemental Education was $4.1 million. Kaplan Supplemental Education expects to recognize 68% of this revenue over the next twelve months and the remainder thereafter.
