Perdoceo Stock Pops While Nasdaq Slips: What Investors Are Watching Now
Perdoceo Education shares rose 2.6% to $33.94 in early Nasdaq trading Thursday, outperforming a weaker tech sector. The move followed attention to its May earnings beat, a June 12 dividend, and a 2026 profit forecast of $3.05–$3.16 per share. First-quarter revenue rose 4.1% to $221.7 million, with enrollment up 1.1% to 48,740. Risks remain tied to student aid rules and for-profit education regulation.
