Frequently asked questions
What is Grand Canyon Education Inc's revenue?
Grand Canyon Education Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $1.13B. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is LOPE?
In its most recent fiscal year, LOPE ran a gross margin of 53.19%, an operating margin of 27.42%, and a net margin of 19.54%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does LOPE generate?
LOPE produced $238.65M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is LOPE's balance sheet healthy?
LOPE holds $111.76M in cash and equivalents against — in long-term debt, on $746.93M of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
