EDU reported FY3Q15 results with both revenue and EPS beating consensus. It also provided FY4Q15 guidance above consensus. We attribute the solid results to the growth in the K-12 sector, especially for the strong performance of U-can middle school and the revamped Pop-kids classes. We believe K-12 may continue to serve as the growth driver in the future. We also believe the margin may expand gradually since the company has passed its significant investment phase in the last several quarters. In……

EDU reported pessimistic FY1Q15 results with both net revenue and EPS below consensus, which was primarily due to two negatives: 1) mis-interpretation of the policies regarding English for college examinations, and 2) the sharp drop in dormitory school courses during the summer vacation. Since the interpretation of the policy was corrected and the dorm school issue does not exist in FY2Q15, the company provided better guidance. As the company continues its efforts to restructure its course offer……

EDU will report FY1Q15 results before the market opens on October 24, 2014 with an 8:00AM EST conference call. While we don’t expect a better FY1Q15, we believe 2Q15 can be a better quarter.
