NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1998 IS UNAUDITED. 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis. The accompanying 1997 and 1998 financial statements include the accounts of Strayer Education, Inc. (the Company), Strayer University, Inc. (the University), Education Loan Processing, Inc. (ELP) and Professional Education, Inc. (Pro Ed), collectively referred to herein as the "Company" or "Companies." During 1997, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 3-for-2 stock split effected by way of a 50 percent stock dividend. The stock dividend was paid on November 18, 1997 to stockholders of record on November 4, 1997. All share and per share information in this report has been changed to give effect to this stock split. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. All information as of June 30, 1998, and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 is unaudited but, in the opinion of management contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flow of the Companies. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (FAS 130) effective March 31, 1998, which requires additional reporting with respect to certain changes in assets and liabilities that previously were reported in stockholders' equity. Accordingly, the Company has included Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 respectively. On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS No. 133, "Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. FAS No. 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company plans to adopt FAS No. 133 during 1999. The adoption of FAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. 2. NATURE OF OPERATIONS The University is a proprietary accredited institution of higher education that provides undergraduate and graduate degrees in various fields of study through its nine campuses in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. In January 1998, Strayer College, Inc. was granted University status by the Education Licensure Committee of The District of Columbia. Subsequently, Strayer College changed its name to Strayer University. ELP is a finance company that purchases and services student loans, principally for the University. For purposes of the consolidated balance sheets, all of ELP's assets and liabilities have been classified as current assets and liabilities with the exception of student loans receivable, which have been classified as noncurrent consistent with industry practice. 7 8 STRAYER EDUCATION, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1998 IS UNAUDITED 3. INCOME PER SHARE The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (FAS 128) effective December 31, 1997. All prior period net income per share amounts have been restated to comply with the provisions of FAS 128. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common and potentially dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding, determined as follows. For the three months For the six months ended June 30, ended June 30, -------------- -------------- 1997 1998 1997 1998 ---- ---- ---- ---- Weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic earnings per share............... 15,408 15,566 15,219 15,560 Incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options ............. 81 493 105 494 -- --- --- --- Shares used to compute diluted earnings per share.......................................... 15,489 16,059 15,324 16,054 ====== ====== ====== ====== Incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options are computed using the average market price during the related periods. 4. CREDIT FACILITY The Company maintains a credit facility from a bank in the amount of $10.0 million. Interest on any borrowings under the facility will accrue at an annual rate not to exceed 0.75% above the London Interbank Offered Rate. The Company will not pay a fee for this facility, but in the event of any borrowings, an origination fee of 1% will be due on the amounts borrowed from time to time thereunder. 5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT The Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.0433 per share to shareholders of record as of July 13, 1998. 8 9 ITEM 2: MANAGEMENTS'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain of the statements included in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" as well as elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such statements. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 Revenues. Revenue increased 20.1% from $13.6 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $16.4 million in the second quarter of 1998, principally due to an increase in student enrollments and a 5% tuition increase effective for 1998. Instruction and educational support expenses. Instruction and educational support expenses increased 17.0% from $4.9 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $5.7 million in the second quarter of 1998. A salary increase of 5% effective in 1998 and the addition of new faculty due to enrollment growth contributed to the increase. Selling and promotion expenses. Selling and promotion expenses increased 23.2% from $1.0 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $1.3 million in the second quarter of 1998, due to a small increase in advertising costs, specifically television advertising, increased advertising for the Distance Learning Program, and increases in the number of admissions representatives in Maryland and personnel in the University's Corporate Outreach Program. General and administration expenses. General and administration expenses increased 31.2% from $1.6 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $2.1 million in the second quarter of 1998, principally due to an increase in the bad debt experience rate on student loans receivable and salary increases for administrative personnel. Income from operations. Operating income increased $1.2 million, or 19.1%, from $6.1 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $7.3 million in the second quarter of 1998. The increase was due to the aforementioned factors. Investment and other income. Investment and other income increased $110,000, or 18.0%, from $611,000 in the second quarter of 1997 to $721,000 in the second quarter of 1998. The increase was due to increases in the amount of cash and cash equivalents. Net income. Net income increased $0.7 million, or 18.2%, from $4.2 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 1998. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 Revenues. Revenue increased 21.2% from $27.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $33.2 million for the corresponding period in 1998, principally due to an increase in student enrollments and a 5% tuition increase effective for 1998. Instruction and educational support expenses. Instruction and educational support expenses increased 15.4% from $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $10.9 million for the corresponding period in 1998. A salary increase of 5% effective in 1997 and the addition of new faculty due to enrollment growth contributed to the increase. Selling and promotion expenses. Selling and promotion expenses increased 17.3% from $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $2.6 million for the corresponding period in 1998, due to a small increase in advertising costs, specifically television advertising, increased advertising for the Distance Learning Program, and increases in the number of admissions representatives in Maryland and personnel in the University's Corporate Outreach Program. General and administration expenses. General and administration expenses increased 34.4% from $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $4.3 million for the corresponding period in 1998, principally due to an increase in the bad debt experience rate on student loans receivable and salary increases for administrative personnel. 9 10 ITEM 2: MANAGEMENTS'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain of the statements included in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" as well as elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such statements. Income from operations. Operating income increased $2.9 million, or 22.9%, from $12.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $15.4 million for the corresponding period in 1998. The increase was due to the aforementioned factors. Investment and other income. Investment and other income increased $0.3 million, or 23.1%, from $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.4 million for the corresponding period in 1998. The increase was due to additional interest income received from increases in the amount of cash and cash equivalents. Net income. Net income increased $2.0 million, or 23.4%, from $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $10.3 million for the corresponding period in 1998. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company generated cash from operating activities of $11.2 million. Net cash used in investing activities was $5.8 million, principally for property and equipment acquisitions. Dividends accounted for substantially all of the cash used in financing activities. The Company believes that existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities aggregating $58.4 million, cash generated from operating activities and, if necessary, cash borrowed under the credit facility will be sufficient to meet the Company's requirements for at least the next 24 months. If the University decides to purchase additional campus facilities, it may finance such acquisitions with indebtedness. During the three months ended June 30, 1998, the University ceased operations of its bookstore. Bookstore services are now performed by an outside internet based vendor. The result was the elimination of the Company's inventories. Strayer Education, Inc. is in the process of assessing and repairing its computer applications to ensure their functionality with respect to the "year 2000" millenium change. At present, Strayer Education does not anticipate that material incremental costs will be incurred in any single future year. IMPACT OF INFLATION Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's historical operations. 10 11 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. None ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES.
