Michael Mathews, Chairman and CEO of AGI, stated: 鈥淭his quarter, we continued to maintain revenue stability while also making further progress executing cost controls to strengthen 猫咪视频 Group鈥檚 financial foundation. Our restructuring initiatives are expected to deliver additional quarterly general and administrative savings of approximately $1.5 million by the third quarter of Fiscal 2026. Our cost control initiatives also resulted in the continuation of positive operating cash flow, building from our success in Fiscal 2025.鈥�

Mr. Mathews added, 鈥淭hese actions enhance our liquidity and position us to strategically reinvest in marketing to boost enrollment. While the regulatory review of the merger between 猫咪视频 University and United States University continues, we remain confident in our ability to expand student resources and achieve positive operating cash flow in fiscal year 2026.鈥�

Fiscal Q1 2026 Financial and Operational Results (compared to Fiscal Q1 2025)

Revenue increased by 1% to $11.4 million compared to $11.3 million. The following table presents the Company鈥檚 revenue, both per subsidiary and total:

猫咪视频 University's (鈥淎U鈥�) revenue decline of $0.5 million, or 11%, is the result of lower post-licensure enrollments from the effect of decreased marketing spend initiated late in Q1 Fiscal 2023.

United States University (鈥淯SU鈥�) revenue was up 9% compared to the prior year period. MSN-FNP program enrollments increased sequentially due to strong organic leads during the quarter. Additionally, USU鈥檚 performance was supported by strong demand from existing students returning from inactive status and higher revenue per student driven by more students entering their second year of the MSN-FNP program, which includes clinical rotations, and by tuition increases.

GAAP gross profit increased by $0.8 million to $8.4 million. Consolidated gross margin was 73% compared to 66%, AU's gross margin was 70% versus 61%, and USU's gross margin was 76% versus 71%. GAAP gross profit and gross margin increased primarily due to higher revenue at USU related to increased revenue per student combined with reduced cost of revenue at AU and USU driven by increased efficiencies in the use of faculty.听听

AU instructional costs and services represented 25% of AU revenue, and USU instructional costs and services represented 22% of USU revenue. AU marketing and promotional costs represented 1% of AU revenue, while USU marketing and promotional costs represented less than 1% of USU revenue.

The following tables present the Company鈥檚 net income (loss), both per subsidiary and total:

The following tables present the Company鈥檚 Non-GAAP measures, both per subsidiary and total. See reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures under 鈥淣on-GAAP鈥�Financial Measures鈥� starting on page 4.

Adjusted EBITDA improved by $1.4 million primarily due to increased revenue per student at USU, increased instructional efficiencies at AU and USU and a decrease in general and administrative costs attributed to our restructurings.

Operating Metrics

New Student Enrollments

On a Company-wide basis, new student enrollments increased 6% year-over-year. Sequentially, new student enrollments increased due to continued strong organic lead flow, existing students returning from inactive status, and students enrolling in advance of Q2 Fiscal 2026 price increases. New student enrollments were negatively impacted by the on-going maintenance level of marketing spend. As a result of the restructurings and increased instructional efficiencies, we anticipate the resumption of marketing spend in the second half of Fiscal 2026 at a level necessary to provide enrollments needed to grow the student body and allow for the generation of positive operating cash flow.

New student enrollments for the past five quarters are shown below:

Liquidity

The Fiscal Q1 2026 ending unrestricted cash balance was $0.5 million. As of October 24, 2025, the Company had $0.6 million of unrestricted cash on hand. In Q2 Fiscal 2026, we implemented a fifth restructuring plan, that will result in additional cash benefits for the Company starting in Q3 Fiscal 2026. The restructuring resulted in the elimination of approximately 75 positions within AU and AGI. The resulting additional on-going quarterly compensation-related savings will be approximately $1.5 million beginning in Q3 Fiscal 2026.

Our restructuring efforts were designed to achieve positive annual operating cash flows, which will permit the resumption of marketing spend at a level that we expect will renew growth in our post-licensure nursing student body. In Fiscal Q1 2026, we had positive cash flow from operations of $0.4 million.

Cost reductions associated with the restructuring plans and other corporate cost reductions ensure that the Company will have sufficient cash to meet its working capital needs for the next 12 months.

Non-GAAP 鈥� Financial Measures

This press release includes both financial measures in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company鈥檚 performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss), and cash flow from operating activities, liquidity or any other financial measures. They may not be indicative of the historical operating results of AGI nor are they intended to be predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Our management uses and relies on EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that management, analysts, and shareholders benefit from referring to the following non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing the impact of items that affect comparability. Our management recognizes that the non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations because of the excluded items described below.

We have included a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing the non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps investors make comparisons between AGI and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measure and the corresponding GAAP measure provided by each company under applicable SEC rules.

AGI defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding: (1) provision for credit losses; (2) stock-based compensation; and (3) non-recurring charges. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and of net income (loss) margin to the Adjusted EBITDA margin:

Definitions

Adjusted EBITDA Margin 鈥� is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDA margin is useful for management, analysts and investors as this measure allows for a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Adjusted EBITDA margin has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to our consolidated statement of operations of certain expenses.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 including the expected general and administrative savings to be achieved by the third quarter of the fiscal year ending April 30, 2026 (鈥淔iscal 2026鈥�), increased marketing spend, and achieving positive operating cash flow for Fiscal 2026. The words 鈥渂elieve,鈥� 鈥渕ay,鈥� 鈥渆stimate,鈥� 鈥渃ontinue,鈥� 鈥渁nticipate,鈥� 鈥渋ntend,鈥� 鈥渟hould,鈥� 鈥減lan,鈥� 鈥渃ould,鈥� 鈥渢arget,鈥� 鈥減otential,鈥� 鈥渋s likely,鈥� 鈥渨ill,鈥� 鈥渆xpect鈥� and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from those in the forward-looking statements include the continued demand of nursing students for the new programs, student attrition, national and local economic factors including the impact of tariffs, competition from nursing schools in local markets, the competitive impact from the trend of major non-profit universities using online education and consolidation among our competitors, the impact, if any from the current U.S. government shutdown, and our ability to refinance our outstanding convertible debentures. Any forward-looking statement made by us herein speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
