$208 -> $222
2025-05-22
Reason
BMO Capital raised the firm's price target on Grand Canyon to $222 from $208 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares after the firm's recent non-deal roadshow. Grand Canyon has shown its ability to grow regardless of the political landscape, and the current environment should be beneficial as the value of its programs are becoming more appreciated by regulators with whom the company has consistent dialogue, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Operating trends for the company are also favorable, specifically in Hybrid/Orbis, which should grow at double-digit rate in the intermediate-term given strong demand for nursing and adding new programs, BMO added.

Reason
Barrington analyst Alexander Paris raised the firm's price target on Grand Canyon to $205 from $180 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company's Q4 topped estimates but its initial 2025 guidance is slightly below, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says that after a slower start in the first half of 2025, it expects Grand Canyon's revenue growth to accelerate and margins to increase in the second half, leading to full-year margin expansion.
