Universal Technical Institute Reports Fiscal Year 2026 Third Quarter Results
Total New Student Start Growth Exceeded Expectations Driven by Strong Demand and Continued Momentum Across New Campuses, Reinforcing Confidence in Long-Term North Star Targets
PHOENIX, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Universal Technical Institute, Inc. (NYSE: UTI), a leading workforce solutions provider of transportation, skilled trades and healthcare education programs, reported financial results for the fiscal 2026 third quarter ended June 30, 2026. Universal Technical Institute, Inc. operates in two reportable segments, Universal Technical Institute (UTI) and Concorde Career Colleges (Concorde), and together with its segments and subsidiaries is referred to as the "Company," "we," "us" or "our."
Financial Highlights
Operational Highlights and North Star Strategy Developments
"Our third quarter results reinforce our confidence in both the demand environment for our students and the strength of the North Star strategy we've been executing," said Jerome Grant, CEO of Universal Technical Institute, Inc. "New student starts grew 11%, exceeding our expectations, driven by a robust performance from our UTI division. Additionally, our newer campuses continue to outperform, with UTI-San Antonio and UTI-Atlanta both tracking well ahead of their launch models, validating the diversification strategy we've been pursuing.
"We have unified all programs under one corporate structure, enabling us to better align resources with demand, improve execution and advance the optimization pillar of North Star while preserving the strength of the UTI and Concorde brands. Over the past several years, we have successfully executed the growth and diversification pillars of North Star, building the programs, campuses and employer relationships needed to meet ever-evolving student demand. That demand is now shifting toward skilled trades faster than anticipated, driving outperformance across newer campuses, capacity expansions and recently launched programs. At the same time, our fourth-quarter high school starts in Auto and Diesel are tracking below plan, as we missed the opportunity to reach every prospective student who expressed interest, creating a clear opportunity to strengthen engagement and improve conversion as we start to look at fiscal 2027."
Financial Results for the Three-Month Period Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to June 30, 2025
"Our third quarter results reflect continued operational strength across the business, with solid enrollment growth, revenue expansion, and disciplined execution against our North Star strategy," said Bruce Schuman, CFO of Universal Technical Institute, Inc. "Average full-time active students increased 5.8% year-over-year, while new student starts increased 10.9%, driven by continued momentum across recently launched campuses, new programs and sustained demand across both divisions.
"Based on the timing of fourth-quarter enrollment trends, we are updating our fiscal 2026 outlook to reflect a more measured fourth-quarter expectation. We now expect fiscal 2026 revenue of $893 million to $900 million, baseline Adjusted EBITDA to exceed $135 million and reported Adjusted EBITDA of $100 million to $103 million, giving effect to approximately $35 million of growth investments. We are also tightening our total new student starts outlook, which is now expected to be between 31,900 and 32,300. Importantly, these adjustments reflect largely timing and, to a lesser degree, mix considerations, rather than a change in the underlying demand environment. Employer demand remains strong, student interest continues to be healthy, and our newer campuses and programs continue to perform well. We believe the investments we are making today are strengthening our platform and positioning Universal Technical Institute, Inc. to deliver on the long-term financial targets outlined in our North Star Phase II strategy."
Financial Results for the Nine-Month Period Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to June 30, 2025
Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2026, the Company incurred $85.4 million of cash capital expenditures ("capex") driven primarily by investments in new campus and program expansions for both UTI and Concorde, along with spending associated with curriculum and equipment refresh and upgrades, facility and leasehold improvements and IT investments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information in this press release and may similarly disclose non-GAAP financial information on the related conference call. These financial measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and are not intended to be and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company discloses these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they provide investors an additional analytical tool to clarify its results of operations and identify underlying trends. Additionally, the Company believes that these measures may also help investors compare its performance on a consistent basis across time periods. Additional details on our non-GAAP measures and the tables reconciling these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are provided below.
Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and items not considered normal recurring operations.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow: The Company defines adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures, adjusted for items not considered normal recurring operations.
Management utilizes adjusted figures as performance measures internally for operating decisions, strategic planning, annual budgeting and forecasting. For the periods presented, our adjustments for items that management does not consider to be normal recurring operations include:
To obtain a complete understanding of our performance, these measures should be examined in connection with net income (loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as presented in the financial statements and notes thereto included in the annual and quarterly filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Because the items excluded from these non-GAAP measures are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance under GAAP, these measures should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (loss) or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. Exclusion of items in the non-GAAP presentation should not be construed as an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Other companies, including other companies in the education industry, may define and calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure across similarly titled performance measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided below and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations.
Forward Looking Statements
All statements contained in this press release and the related conference call, other than statements of historical fact, are "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). These forward-looking statements which address our expected future business and financial performance, may contain words such as "goal," "target," "future," "estimate," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "project," "may," "should," "will," the negative form of these expressions or similar expressions. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding (1) the Company's expectation that it will meet its fiscal year 2026 guidance for new student start growth, revenue growth, net income, diluted earnings per share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow; (2) the Company's expectation that it will continue to expand its value proposition and build a business that can grow in double digits with potential upside, regardless of the economic environment; and (3) the Company's expectation that it will succeed in new program launches next year. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company's current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of its business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could affect our actual results include, among other things, failure of our schools to comply with the extensive regulatory requirements for school operations; shifts in higher education laws, regulation and policy at the federal and state levels; our failure to maintain eligibility for or our ability to process federal student financial assistance funds; the effect of current and future Title IV Program regulations arising out of negotiated rulemakings, including any potential reductions in funding or restrictions on the use of funds received through Title IV Programs; the effect of future legislative or regulatory initiatives related to veterans' benefit programs; continued Congressional examination of the for-profit education sector; regulatory investigations of, or actions commenced against, us or other companies in our industry; our failure to execute on our growth and diversification strategy, including effectively identifying, establishing and operating additional schools, programs or campuses; our failure to realize the expected benefits of our acquisitions, or our failure to successfully integrate our acquisitions.; our failure to improve underutilized capacity at certain of our campuses; enrollment declines or challenges in our students' ability to find employment as a result of macroeconomic conditions; our failure to maintain and expand existing industry relationships and develop new industry relationships; our ability to update and expand the content of existing programs and develop and integrate new programs in a timely and cost-effective manner while maintaining positive student outcomes; a loss of our senior management or other key employees; failure to comply with the restrictive covenants and our ability to pay the amounts when due under the credit agreement; the effect of our principal stockholder owning a significant percentage of our capital stock, and thus being able to influence certain corporate matters and the potential in the future to gain substantial control over our company; the effect of public health pandemics, epidemics or outbreak, including COVID-19, and other risks that are described from time to time in our public filings. Further information on these and other potential factors that could affect the financial results or condition may be found in the company's filings with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements made by us in this press release and the related conference call are based only on information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on which it is made. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments, changes in expectations, any changes in events, conditions or circumstances, or otherwise.

Financial Summary by Segment and Consolidated
As part of Phase II of our North Star growth strategy and to support our new campus growth initiatives, we have further refined our operating model to best pursue future growth goals and support the business. In furtherance of the foregoing, we have centralized the operations of our accounting, finance, information technology, human resources, and real estate departments to leverage economies of scale and create efficiencies to support our continued growth. Due to this centralization, as of October 1, 2025, we have adjusted our allocation methodology to allocate the majority of the Corporate segment's costs to the UTI and Concorde segments based upon a percentage of revenue. Due to these changes in allocation methodology, the prior year segment disclosures have been recast for comparability to the current year presentation.
