Reason

Truist analyst Jasper Bibb lowered the firm's price target on Strategic Education to $105 from $120 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Strategic reported upside to Q1 results, but on the negative side enrollment missed in both the USHE and AUS/NZ segments. Concerns around a continued slowdown in enrollment drove the modest stock reaction despite a significant EBITDA beat, notes the analyst, who lowered the firm's price target on the view that multiple expansion is less likely if enrollment is not growing.

Reason

Barrington lowered the firm's price target on Strategic Education to $105 from $120 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares following the Q1 report. While the company's revenue and earnings were above expectations, total enrollment was below the consensus estimate, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm scaled back the price target post the earnings report.

Reason

BMO Capital analyst Jeffrey Silber lowered the firm's price target on Strategic Education to $97 from $114 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares after its Q4 results. Earnings narrowly beat consensus but came in below BMO's estimates as the management cited additional investments, even though the company's enrollment growth slowed as well, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm adds that the stock's selloff may have been exacerbated by Strategic Education's philosophy of not providing guidance, adding to the uncertainty, though BMO remains positive on the company's "differentiated product" longer term.
