Student receivables represent funds owed to us in exchange for the educational services provided to a student. Student receivables are reflected net of an allowance for credit losses at the end of the reporting period. Student receivables, net, are reflected on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as components of both current and non-current assets.

Our students pay for their costs through a variety of funding sources, including federal loan and grant programs, institutional payment plans, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and other military funding and grants, private and institutional scholarships and cash payments. Cash receipts from government-related sources are typically received during the current academic term. Students who have not applied for any type of financial aid generally set up a payment plan with the institution and make payments on a monthly basis in accordance with the terms of the payment plan. A student receivable balance is written off when deemed uncollectible, which is typically once a student is out of school and there has been no payment activity on the account for 150 days. If, however, the student does remit a payment during this time period, the 150-day policy for write-off starts again until either (1) the student continues making payments, or (2) the student does not make any additional payments after which the student receivable balance is written off after 150 days. In an effort to reduce the risk of writing off a student’s account, the Company employs a continuous collection effort to minimize exposure from outstanding receivables.

Our standard student receivable allowance is based on an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses on student receivables that considers vintages of receivables to determine a loss rate. In considering lifetime credit losses, if the expected life goes beyond the Company’s reasonable ability to forecast, the Company then reverts to historical loss experience as an indicator of collections. In determining the expected credit losses for the period, student receivables were disaggregated and pooled into two different categories to refine the calculation. Other information considered included external factors outside the Company’s control. Given that collection history during the COVID-19 pandemic was not considered to be a reliable indicator of a student’s repayment history, the Company adjusted the historical loss calculation by normalizing the financial data relating to that time period. Our estimation methodology further considered a number of quantitative and qualitative factors that, based on our collection experience, we believe have an impact on our repayment risk and ability to collect student receivables. Changes in the trends in any of these factors may impact our estimate of the allowance for credit losses. These factors include, but are not limited to: internal repayment history, student status, changes in current economic conditions, legislative or regulatory environments, internal cash collection forecasts, and the ability to complete the federal financial aid process with the student. These factors are monitored and assessed on a regular basis. Overall, our allowance estimation process for student receivables is validated by trend analysis and comparing estimated and actual performance.

The Company has student receivables that are due greater than 12 months from the date of our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the amount of non-current student receivables under payment plans that are longer than 12 months in duration, net of allowance for credit losses, was $21.6 million and $21.2 million, respectively.

Student receivables are presented on a gross basis from the individual students. The total receivable amount above excludes (i) federal subsidies reflected on the students’ accounts but not yet received from the government, and (ii) receivables from industry relationships, which are otherwise included under accounts receivable in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We define student receivables as a portfolio segment under ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”). Changes in our current and non-current allowance for credit losses related to our student receivable portfolio were calculated in accordance with ASC 326 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively.

The carrying amount reported in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the current portion of student receivables approximates fair value because of the nature of these financial instruments, as they generally have short maturity periods. It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the non-current portion of student receivables, since observable market data is not readily available and no reasonable estimation methodology exists.
