1. 業務描述
Stride, Inc.及其子公司(以下簡稱「Stride」或「公司」)是一家科技公司,提供教育平台以向美國的學生提供在線學習。該品牌反映了公司在終身學習方面的持續增長,無論學生的年齡或地點如何。公司的平台提供產品和服務,以吸引、註冊、教育、跟蹤進度和支持學生。這些產品和服務涵蓋課程、系統、教學和支持服務,旨在通過啓發式教學和個性化學習幫助各年齡段的學習者充分發揮其潛力。公司的客戶主要是公立和私立學校、學區和特許學校董事會。此外,還爲僱主、政府機構和消費者提供解決方案。這些產品和服務通過
● | 針對普通教育市場的產品和服務主要集中在覈心科目上,包括數學、英語、科學和歷史,適用於從幼兒園到十二年級的學生,旨在幫助建立共同的知識基礎。這些項目提供了傳統學校選擇的替代方案,並滿足一系列學生需求。產品和服務以綜合的學校即服務的方式交付給學校,或作爲獨立的產品和服務提供。一名註冊在提供Stride普通教育項目的學校的學生可以選擇參加職業課程,但該學生及其相關的營業收入被報告爲普通教育註冊和普通教育營業收入。. |
● | 職業學習產品和服務的重點是培養進入並在高增長需求行業—包括信息技術、醫療保健和一般業務中成功所需的技能。公司爲中學和高中學生提供職業學習項目,這些項目補充了他們的核心普通教育課程。Stride通過一個多樣化的課程目錄提供多條職業路徑。中學項目讓學生接觸多種職業選擇,並引入職業技能發展。在高中,學生可以參與行業內容路徑課程、虛擬團隊中的項目學習以及職業發展服務。高中學生有機會取得認證,連接行業專業人士,在高中期間獲得大學學分,並參與職業旁聽和/或工作基礎學習經驗,以促進他們在當今數字化、科技驅動經濟中的成功。只有當學生註冊職業學習項目時,才會將其報告爲職業學習註冊及相關的職業學習營業收入。與普通教育產品和服務類似,職業學習的產品和服務也作爲綜合的學校即服務產品或作爲獨立的產品和服務進行銷售。公司還向成年學習者提供針對軟件工程、醫療保健和醫療領域的專門後續職業學習程序。這些程序直接向消費者、僱主和政府機構銷售。 |
2. 呈報基礎
截至2024年9月30日的合併簡明資產負債表、截至2024年和2023年9月30日止三個月的合併收入和全面收益表、截至2024年和2023年9月30日止三個月的合併現金流量表,以及截至2024年和2023年9月30日止三個月的合併股東權益變動表均爲未經審計。未經審計的臨時基本報表是根據年度基本報表的相同基礎準備的,並且根據管理層的意見,反映了所有必要的調整,包括僅爲正常的經常性調整,以公平地呈現公司在所述期間的財務狀況和經營結果。截止2024年9月30日的三個月的結果不一定代表預計在截至2025年6月30日的年度、任何其他臨時期間或任何其他未來財政年度的結果。截止2024年6月30日的合併簡明資產負債表來自該日期的經過審計的合併基本報表。
公司的合併未審計簡明基本報表是根據美國通用會計準則(「GAAP」)針對臨時財務信息和1934年證券交易法修訂版的表格10-Q和規則10-01的指示編制的。因此,公司並不包括GAAP對完整財務報表所需的所有信息和腳註。根據管理層的意見,這些報表包括所有

考慮到對公司簡明合併的經營結果、財務狀況和現金流量公正陳述所必需的調整(包括正常的經常性調整)。根據公認會計原則(GAAP)編制公司的基本報表要求管理層做出影響基本報表及附註所報告金額的估計和假設。實際結果可能與這些估計有所不同。此季度10-Q表格報告應與公司最新年度報告中的基本報表及附註一起閱讀,該年度報告於2024年8月6日向證券交易委員會(「SEC」)提交,包含公司截至2024年6月30日的審計基本報表。

3. 重要會計政策概述
最近的會計聲明
尚未採納的會計準則
在2020年3月,財務會計標準委員會("FASB")發佈了ASU 2020-04,基準利率改革(主題848)("ASU 2020 04"),爲因基準利率改革(例如LIBOR)而受影響的公司提供了救助,該改革暫定於2023財年末停止。該ASU允許實體將因基準利率改革而進行的合同修改視爲不需要合同重新計量的事件。該ASU適用於2020年3月12日至2022年12月31日的期間,並允許在此期間的任何時間以前瞻性方式採用。在2022年12月,FASB發佈了ASU 2022-06,基準利率改革(主題848):延遲主題848的終止日期,該措施將主題848的規定延長至2024年12月31日。公司的高級擔保循環信貸設施包括在LIBOR不可用時使用替代利率。公司預計,從LIBOR轉換爲替代利率不會對壓縮合並基本報表產生重大影響,並且在其進行受LIBOR逐步退出影響的協議修改時,公司將按照該指導方針應用於這些合同修改。
在2023年11月,FASB發佈了ASU 2023-07,分部報告(主題280)("ASU 2023-07")。此更新提供了,包括重大分部費用的增強分部披露要求。ASU 2023-07適用於2023年12月15日後開始的財政年度,以及2024年12月15日後開始的財政年度中的中期期間。ASU 2023-07的某些方面適用於只有一個可報告分部的實體。公司將在接下來的幾個季度審查實施2025財政年度之前所需的新披露範圍。除了額外披露外,我們不期望我們的合併基本報表有任何變化。
在2023年12月,FASB發佈了ASU 2023-09,所得稅(主題740):所得稅披露的改善(「ASU 2023-09」)。ASU 2023-09旨在增強所得稅披露的透明度和決策效用。ASU 2023-09中的修訂主要通過對稅率調整和已支付所得稅信息的更改來滿足投資者對增強所得稅信息的要求。ASU 2023-09適用於2024年12月15日後開始的財政年度,以及2025年12月15日後開始的財政年度中的中期期間。公司將在接下來的幾個季度審查實施2026財政年度之前所需的新披露範圍。除了額外披露外,我們不期望我們的合併基本報表有任何變化。

收入確認
營業收入是在公司將承諾的商品或服務的控制權轉移給客戶時確認的,在一定數量,以反映公司期望因交換而有權獲得的對這些商品或服務的考慮,使用以下步驟:
● | 確定與客戶的合同或合同; |
● | 確定合同中的績效義務; |
● | 確定交易價格; |
● | 將交易價格分配給合同中的履約義務;並 |
● | 在公司滿足履約義務時,或者隨時確認營業收入。 |
公司提供給幼兒園至十二年級學生或成年學習者的產品和服務相關的營業收入,根據學生所在的學校或成人計劃被視爲普通教育或職業學習。普通教育產品和服務專注於核心科目,包括數學、英語、科學和歷史,面向幼兒園至十二年級學生,幫助建立共同的知識基礎。職業學習產品和服務側重於培養進入和成功發展高增長、需求旺盛行業的技能,包括信息技術、醫療保健和一般業務,適用於初中至高中學生和成年學習者。
公司的大部分合同與以下類型的客戶簽訂:
● | 一個虛擬或混合學校,其營業收入主要由學校獲得的資金確定。 |
● | 學校或個人按訂閱或課程方式許可特定課程的 |
● | 與公司簽約提供職業培訓的企業 |
基於資金的合同
公司提供一攬子的系統、服務、產品和專業知識,共同支持虛擬或混合公立學校。合同協議通常跨越多年,其履約義務限定於通常與公司的財政年度相吻合的年度期間。這些項目的客戶可以根據協商服務協議的條款獲得行政支持、信息技術、學術支持服務、在線課程、學習系統平台和教學服務。學校從所在公立學校或學區的州按學生基礎獲得資金支持。在第四財季向學校發放材料,以及爲即將到來的學年錄入的收入爲遞延收入。
公司通過與虛擬和混合公立學校簽訂合同來實現營業收入,如有需要,包括以下組成部分:
● | 爲學校的每位學生提供訪問公司在線學校和課程的權限; |
● | 離線學習工具箱,包括書籍和材料,用以補充在線課程; |
● | 個人計算機及相關回收服務的使用; |
● | 互聯網接入和技術支持服務; |
● | 由州認證教師進行的指導; 和 |
● | 爲支持虛擬或混合學校提供的管理和技術服務。在某些合同中,收入直接由每名學生的資金決定。 |
爲了確定在財季中應確認的按比例分配營業收入金額,公司估計每個學校在特定學年將獲得的總預期所有基金類型。學校的總資金主要取決於學校中就讀學生人數以及建立的每個學生的註冊資金水平,這些資金水平通常由州或學區每年發佈。公司定期審查其對資金的估計,並定期更新
10
必要,將其年初至今的收入調整爲與該財政年度預期收入總額成正比。實際學校資助可能與這些估計有所不同,這些差異的影響可能會影響公司的經營業績。由於學年結束時恰逢公司財政年度的結束,因此年度收入通常基於實際的學校資助和實際產生的費用(包括公司爲學校提供的服務費用以及學校可能產生的其他費用)。公司報告的業績須接受年度學區財務審計,其中包括入學人數、資金和其他例行財務審計注意事項。這些審計結果已納入公司截至2024年9月30日和2023年9月30日的三個月的月度資金估算中。從歷史上看,總資金估計數與實際報銷額的差異通常在
每個州和/或學區的學校資助公式和方法各不相同,用於估算各自學校的收入確認資金。在公司估算每所學校的資金時,它考慮了各州對計票日期的定義,在該日期內,報告的入學人數將用於爲每名學生提供資助。公司在估算收入確認資金時考慮的參數包括學區人數定義、退學率、新註冊人數、平均每日出勤率、特殊需求入學人數、學業進步、歷史完成情況、學生地點、資助上限和其他州指定的類別項目資金。
根據公司向學校提供產品和服務的合同,公司對學校產生的幾乎所有費用負責,並且普遍同意吸收學校在給定學年的任何運營損失。這些學校的運營虧損是指虛擬或混合公立學校所得收入(學校的預期資金)所產生的成本之外的部分,如其各自的財務報表(包括公司向學校收取的費用)所反映的那樣。如果學校沒有爲每名入學的學生獲得足夠的資助,則學校仍將承擔與爲無資助入學者提供服務相關的費用。如果由於無資金註冊而造成的損失導致該年度的淨營業虧損,則該虧損將反映爲公司從學校收取的收入和淨應收賬款的減少。學校一年內的淨營業虧損並不一定意味着公司預計與學校簽訂的整份合同將蒙受損失。但是,學校的淨營業虧損可能會降低公司全額收取管理費的能力,而確認的收入僅限於反映此類學校的預期現金收入。公司根據該期間實際收入佔該財年估計總收入的百分比來記錄學校的估計淨營業虧損佔收入的比例。學校的實際淨營業虧損可能與這些估計或修訂有所不同,這些差異的影響可能會對經營業績產生重大影響。在截至2024年9月30日和2023年9月30日的三個月中,公司的收入包括學校淨營業虧損減少的美元
基於訂閱的合約
公司根據訂閱協議向學校和學區提供某些在線課程和服務。根據訂閱安排發放課程的收入在訂閱期內按比例確認。專業諮詢、培訓和支持服務的收入在服務期內按比例遞延和確認。
此外,公司還與有權訪問的個人客戶簽訂合同
11
企業合同
公司在特定合同期限內爲企業提供就業培訓。每一份合同被視爲一個履行義務。公司根據合同期限內接受培訓的學生人數和定義的合同價格確認這些營業收入。
分類收入
與上述合同類型相關的營業收入確認可以跨越公司的兩個收入線,如下所示。例如,基於資金的合同可能包括普通教育和職業學習的學生。總共有一個履約責任,收入在公司的財政年度內確認。然後,收入在普通教育和職業學習之間進行分解,基於公司對每類別全年註冊總人數的估計。在截至2024年和2023年9月30日的三個月期間,約

合同餘額
收入確認、開票及現金收款的時機會導致在簡明合併資產負債表中產生應收賬款、未開票應收款(合同資產)和遞延收入(合同負債)。當客戶合同已執行且客戶已被開票時,應收賬款被記錄。當應收款記錄時,會記錄預期損失的準備金。公司定期評估未收款的可收回性,以判斷是否需要額外的準備金。未開票應收款在收入在客戶開票之前被確認時產生。遞延收入是在客戶被開票或現金在提供服務之前被收取時記錄的。

公司應收賬款、未開票應收款和遞延營業收入的期初和期末餘額如下:

應收賬款和未開票應收款的期初餘額與期末餘額之間的差異與公司賬單結算時間及合同協議相關。遞延營業收入的期初餘額與期末餘額之間的差異與公司向客戶開具賬單及合同服務期間之間的時差有關,以及可變的考慮因素估計的變化。通常,這些餘額在財政年度第一季度處於最高點,在財政年度末處於最低點。在2024年9月30日和2023年結束的三個月內確認的營業收入金額已包含在上一年的7月1日。st 遞延收入餘額爲$
履行責任
履行義務是合同中向客戶轉讓獨特商品或服務的承諾,也是帳戶的單位。合同的交易價格按照每個獨特履行義務進行分配,並在履行義務滿足時或隨之確認爲營業收入。對於大多數合同,公司的履行義務是隨時間履行的,隨着公司交付服務,客戶在合同服務期內接收服務。公司的付款條件通常是淨額。

重要的裁量判斷
公司確定,其與客戶的大部分合同包含一項履約義務。公司將產品和服務作爲一套整體產品進行推廣,結合其課程服務。公司不推廣獨立於課程服務的單獨產品或服務。公司主要提供將貨物和服務整合到學校運營和學生教育中的重要服務,客戶已簽約接受該服務。
公司已確定,已經流逝的時間方法是衡量達成履約義務進度的最適當方法。一般來說,公司在公司財政年度內提供整體產品和服務方案。該方案包括招生、營銷、教師培訓等,以及核心課程和指導。所有這些活動都是必要的,並有助於學生全年均勻受教育。因此,公司採用直線法確認收入。
公司確定,預期價值法是處理變量考慮的最合適方法,公司的預測方法是使用概率來確定預期資金的估算過程。公司每月估計每所學校在特定學年內將收到的總基金金額以及全年學校營業收入和營業費用的金額,以確定公司將生成的收入金額。

認可。招生和州資金率是此估計的關鍵輸入。估計每月調整,並根據需要對收入進行累積補償調整,以反映至今所賺取的總收入與財政年度內將賺取的總收入成比例。公司在對變量考慮的估計中納入已知的制約因素(例如,招生、資金、淨運營損失等),以記錄最可能的金額。
銷售稅
從客戶處收取的銷售稅被排除在收入之外。已經收取但未支付的銷售稅被包含爲簡明合併資產負債表中的應計負債的一部分。由於公司認爲自己是收取和支付銷售稅的中介,因此收入不包括銷售稅。
整合
合併的基本報表包括公司及其直接或間接擁有的全資及關聯公司,以及所有受控子公司的帳戶。所有重要的公司間交易和餘額已在合併中消除。

信用損失準備
公司爲信用損失保留了準備金,主要是爲了估計因個別客戶無法或未能按要求支付款項而產生的損失。公司根據 ASC 326 基於歷史損失、付款歷史的變化、客戶特定信息、當前經濟狀況以及合理且可支持的未來經濟狀況預測,維持準備金。ASC 326 下的準備金會隨着額外損失的發生或與客戶或經濟狀況相關的信息的可用性而更新。
截至2024年6月30日,公司爲信用損失的準備金從 $
公司依據應收賬款的年齡以及客戶的事實與情況和不付款的原因來註銷應收賬款。實際註銷可能與記錄的撥備不同。
存貨
庫存主要由教科書和課程材料組成,其中大多數供應給虛擬和混合公立學校,直接供學生使用。庫存代表購買並保存待售的物品,並按成本(先進先出法)和可實現淨值中較低者入賬。公司根據持有期將其庫存分類爲流動或長期。截止到2024年9月30日和2024年6月30日,$
其他流動資產
其他流動資產主要包括教科書、課程材料和其他預計在學年結束後歸還的用品。未歸還的材料則計入教育成本和服務的費用。
資本化saas-雲計算成本
公司資本化雲計算合同中發生的saas-雲計算許可證和實施成本,這些合同如果滿足特定要求,則被視爲服務合同。這些要求與資本化爲內部使用軟件開發而發生的成本的要求類似。saas成本的資本化在項目基本完成且軟件準備好用於預定目的後停止。攤銷採用直線法計算,期限爲相關託管合同的期限,通常在

截至2024年9月30日和2024年6月30日,公司記錄了$
攤銷費用反映在與saas-雲計算實施成本相關的教學成本和服務中爲$
資產和設備
物業和設備按照成本減去累計折舊和攤銷進行計量。折舊和攤銷費用採用直線法計算,期間爲資產的估計使用壽命(或租賃期限與資產在融資租賃下的估計使用壽命中的較小者)。融資租賃安排下資本化資產的攤銷包括在折舊費用中。租賃改良按租賃期限或資產的估計使用壽命中的較小者進行攤銷。租賃期限的確定在「租賃」部分中討論。
物業和設備的折舊年限如下:
| 有用壽命 | |
電腦硬件 | ||
計算機-半導體軟件 | ||
學生和州測試計算機及打印機 | ||
網站開發 | ||
辦公設備 | ||

資本化軟體新增總額爲 $
資本化課程開發成本
公司內部開發課程,主要作爲在線內容提供並通過Internet Plus-related訪問。公司還創建與在線內容互補的教科書和其他材料。
公司將申請開發階段以及項目的設計和部署階段發生的課程開發成本資本化。因此,公司課程材料開發成本的很大一部分符合資本化的條件,因爲其開發工作集中在課程內容上。當課程可供客戶普遍發佈時,資本化結束,此時資本化成本的攤銷開始。這些開發成本的攤銷期通常是
資本化的課程開發新增總額爲$
租賃
公司的主要租賃活動包括學生計算機及外設,歸類爲融資租賃,以及設施,歸類爲經營租賃。
除非滿足以下任何標準,否則租賃被歸類爲經營租賃:
● | 租賃在租期結束時轉移資產的所有權; |
● | 租賃授予購買資產的期權,承租人預計會行使該期權; |
● | 租賃期限反映了資產經濟壽命的重要部分; |
● | 租賃支付的現值等於或超過資產的公允價值;或者 |
● | 該資產具有專業性,在期限結束時對出租人沒有替代用途。 |
融資租賃
該公司簽訂協議,以融資購買提供給其學校學生的計算機及外部設備。單個租賃通常包括
付款條款。該公司將融資的資產抵押,以確保未償還的租賃。經營租賃
公司簽署協議,爲其總部和學校運營提供辦公設施。租賃條款各不相同,
折現率
租賃付款的現值是通過使用租賃中隱含的利率或承租人的增量借款利率在租賃期限內計算的。對於公司大多數的融資租賃和經營租賃,合同條款中並未定義利率。因此,公司採用增量借款利率作爲折現率。
17
增量借款利率定義爲承租人爲了在類似經濟環境中以類似期限向抵押擔保基礎上借款時需支付的利息率,該金額等於租賃付款,並使用比較信用等級進行計算。
政策選擇
短期租賃
公司選擇繼續採用一種會計政策,不記錄短期設施租賃(12個月或更短)的使用權資產或租賃負債,並將在租賃期限內按直線法攤銷租賃付款。會計政策的選擇是按相關的基礎資產類別作出的。公司已選擇將這一會計政策僅適用於經營租賃。
所得稅
遞延稅款資產和負債是基於資產和負債的財務報告基礎與所得稅基礎之間的差異,使用現行的邊際稅率來計算。如果根據現有證據的權重,部分或全部遞延稅款資產很可能無法實現,則淨遞延稅款資產將被減去估值備抵。
商譽和無形資產
公司將收購價格超過可識別淨資產公允價值的部分記錄爲商譽。業務合併中獲得的有限壽命無形資產在進行攤銷時按其公允價值記錄。有限壽命無形資產包括商標、收購的客戶和經銷商、開發的科技和競業禁止協議。這些無形資產按直線法在其預計使用壽命內進行攤銷。到2024年和2023年9月30日止三個月的攤銷費用分別爲$
公司在事件或環境變化表明資產的賬面價值可能無法完全回收時,審查其有限使用壽命的無形資產的減值。如果預期的未貼現未來現金流總額低於資產的賬面價值,則確認公平價值與資產的賬面價值之間的差額作爲損失。
公司已經
在截至2024年和2023年9月30日的三個月期間,沒有任何事件或情況的變化表明商譽的賬面價值受損。

長期資產的減值
長期資產包括物業、設備、使用權資產、資本化課程及爲內部使用而開發或獲得的軟體。管理層每年審核公司記錄的長期資產是否出現減值,或者若有事件或情況變化表明資產的賬面價值可能無法完全回收時亦會進行審核。公司根據對資產未來可用性的預期以及對與該資產相關的未來現金流將超過其賬面價值的合理保證,決定資產可能減值的程度。如果預期未來現金流總額低於資產的賬面價值,則將虧損確認爲公允價值與資產的賬面價值之間的差額。在截至2024年和2023年9月30日的三個月內,沒有事件或情況變化表明長期資產的賬面價值可能無法回收。
公允價值計量
公允價值是指在主要市場或資產或負債的最有利市場中,在測量日期市場參與者之間的有序交易中,出售一項資產時所收到的價格或轉讓一項負債時所支付的價格。測量結果描述了一個公允價值層級,該層級要求實體最大化可觀察輸入的使用,並最小化不可觀察輸入的使用,以進行公允價值的測量。
用於衡量公允價值的三種輸入層次爲:
第一層次:基於測量日期在活躍市場中對相同資產或負債的報價市場價格的輸入。
第二層次:除了第一層次中的報價以外的可觀察輸入,例如在活躍市場中對類似資產和負債的報價;在非活躍市場中對相同或類似資產和負債的報價;或其他可觀察或可以通過可觀察市場數據證實的輸入。
第三層次:輸入反映管理層對在測量日期市場參與者在定價資產或負債時會使用的最佳估計。這些輸入在市場中不可觀察,對工具的估值具有重要意義。
在簡明合併資產負債表中,現金及現金等價物、應收款項和短期義務的賬面價值與其公允價值大致相當,因爲這些資產在性質上大多數是短期的。截至2024年9月30日,長期債務的估計公允價值爲$

每股普通股淨利潤(淨虧損)
基本每股淨利潤(虧損)是通過將淨利潤(虧損)除以報告期內流通普通股的加權平均數量來計算的。流通普通股的加權平均數量包括已歸屬的限制性股票獎勵。稀釋每股淨利潤(虧損)(「每股收益」)反映了基於假設轉換或行使所有未行使的稀釋性期權和所有未歸屬的稀釋性限制性股票獎勵時可能出現的稀釋效果。期權和限制性股票獎勵的稀釋效應是使用國庫股票法確定的。在國庫股票法下,從行使期權和限制性股票獎勵中收到的收益、尚未被公司確認的未來服務的補償成本以及當期權在所得稅方面可以扣除時將記錄爲所得稅費用的稅收利益都假定用於回購公司的普通股。當期權和限制性股票獎勵產生反稀釋效果時,它們不計入稀釋每股淨利潤(虧損)的計算中。公司壓縮合並資產負債表中反映的流通普通股包括已流通的限制性股票獎勵。當公司的股票交易價格高於轉換價格時,公司的可轉換債務的稀釋效應是使用若轉換法確定的。然而,根據該工具的結構及其在轉換時的結算方式,它將產生與之前適用的國庫股票法類似的結果。

2022年12月9日,公司股東批准了對2016年股權激勵計劃(「經修訂和重述的2016年計劃」)的修訂和重述。經修訂和重述的2016年計劃反映了可供發行的普通股數量的增加
經修訂和重述的2016年計劃旨在通過爲員工提供股權所有權機會,吸引、留住和激勵爲公司做出重要貢獻的員工。根據修訂和重述的2016年計劃授予的獎勵可能包括股票期權、股票增值權、限制性股票、限制性股票單位和其他股票獎勵。根據經修訂和重述的2016年計劃,與根據經修訂和重述的2016年計劃授予的被沒收或取消的獎勵相關的未發行股份,或根據公司2007年股權激勵獎勵計劃(「先前計劃」)授予的獎勵(前提是根據先前計劃授予的此類獎勵截至2016年12月15日尚未償還並在2022年9月19日之前被沒收或取消),將再次根據修訂和重述的2016年計劃可供發行計劃。儘管如此,根據修訂和重述的2016年計劃,投標支付股票期權行使價或預扣稅款的股票,或與行使股票增值權結算相關的非發行股票,或使用行使期權的現金收益在公開市場上購買的股票,將不再可供發行。
截至2024年9月30日,根據修訂和重述的2016年計劃授權未來發行的公司普通股的剩餘總數爲
所有基於股票的薪酬獎勵的薪酬支出均基於授予日的公允價值。公司在必要的服務期(通常是裁決的歸屬期)內按直線方式確認這些補償成本。基於績效的獎勵的授予取決於某些績效指標的實現情況。當業績條件得到滿足或公司確定績效條件有可能得到滿足時,通過累積補差額調整追溯確認薪酬支出。基於績效的獎勵的確認薪酬支出金額受所取得成就水平的影響。管理層已經確定了三個成就水平:門檻、目標和跑贏大盤。股票薪酬支出記錄在合併運營報表的銷售、一般和管理費用中。
限制性股票獎勵
公司已根據修訂和重述的2016年計劃和先前計劃批准了限制性股票獎勵(「RSA」)的授予。根據修訂和重述的2016年計劃和先前計劃,員工、外部董事和獨立承包商可以通過授予限制性股票來參與公司的未來業績。每個RSA根據授予此類RSA的限制性股票協議中規定的歸屬時間表進行歸屬,通常已結束

10. 承諾與或有事項
訴訟
在公司正常經營過程中,公司不時會受到訴訟、仲裁和行政程序的影響。公司積極爲這些索賠辯護;然而,無法保證任何待決法律程序的結果。根據目前可獲得的信息,公司認爲,任何現有或已知威脅的程序,即使結果不利,也不應對其業務、財務狀況、流動性或運營結果產生重大不利影響。
僱傭協議
公司與某些高管簽訂了僱傭協議,該協議在特定終止僱傭時提供遣散付款,以及在某些情況下提供其他福利。所有協議都規定爲「隨意」僱傭。如果員工因「合理原因」辭職或被無故解僱,員工有權根據協議享受工資繼續發放,且在某些情況下享受福利繼續發放,具體期間各不相同。
資產負債表外安排
截至2024年9月30日,公司提供了大約$的擔保。
29
此外,公司合同保證在公司管理的特定學校將不會出現年度運營赤字,並且公司從這些學校收取的管理費用可能會相應減少,以彌補任何學校運營赤字。
除了這些租賃和運營赤字保證外,公司沒有任何表外安排,這些安排對公司當前或未來的基本報表、基本報表變化、收入或支出、運營結果、流動性、資本支出或資本資源產生或可能產生合理的影響。

Our platform addresses two markets in the K-12 space: General Education and Career Learning.
General Education
Products and services for the General Education market are predominantly focused on core subjects, including math, English, science and history, for kindergarten through twelfth grade students to help build a common foundation of knowledge. These programs provide an alternative to traditional school options and address a range of student needs. Products and services are delivered as a comprehensive school-as-a-service offering for schools or as stand-alone products and services. A student enrolled in a school that offers Stride’s General Education program may elect to take career courses, but that student and the associated revenue is reported as a General Education enrollment and General Education revenue.
Career Learning
Career Learning products and services are focused on developing skills to enter and succeed in careers in high-growth, in-demand industries—including information technology, healthcare and general business. We provide middle and high school students with Career Learning programs that complement their core general education coursework. Stride offers multiple career pathways through a diverse catalog of courses. The middle school program exposes students to a variety of career options and introduces career skill development. In high school, students may engage in industry content pathway courses, project-based learning in virtual teams, and career development services. High school students have the opportunity to progress toward certifications, connect with industry professionals, earn college credits while in high school, and participate in job shadowing and/or work-based learning experiences that facilitate success in today’s digital, tech-enabled economy. A student is reported as a Career Learning enrollment and associated Career Learning revenue only if the student is enrolled in a Career Learning program. Like General Education products and services, the products and services for Career Learning are sold as a comprehensive school-as-a-service offering or as stand-alone products and services.
We also provide focused post-secondary career learning programs to adult learners, for the software engineering, healthcare, and medical fields. These programs are sold directly to consumers, employers and government agencies.
For both the General Education and Career Learning markets, the majority of revenue is derived from our comprehensive school-as-a-service offering which includes an integrated package of curriculum, technology systems, instruction, and support services that we administer on behalf of our customers. The average duration of the agreements for our school-as-a-service offering is greater than five years, and most provide for automatic renewals absent a customer notification of non-renewal. For the 2024-2025 school year, we provide our school-as-a-service offering to 89 schools in 31 states and the District of Columbia in the General Education market, and 56 schools or programs in 27 states and the District of Columbia in the Career Learning market.
We generate a significant portion of our revenues from the sale of curriculum, administration support and technology services to virtual and blended public schools. The amount of revenue generated from these contracts is impacted largely by the number of enrollments, the mix of enrollments across grades and states, state or district per student funding levels and attendance requirement, among other items. The average duration of the agreements for our school-as-a-service offering is greater than five years, and most provide for automatic renewals absent a customer notification within a negotiated time frame.
The two key financial metrics that we use to assess financial performance are revenues and operating income. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, revenues increased to $551.1 million from $480.2 million in the prior year, an increase of 14.8%. Over the same period, operating income increased to $47.3 million from $3.3 million in the prior year. The increase in operating income was driven by revenue growth and an increase in gross margin. Additionally, we use the non-financial metric of total enrollments to assess performance, as enrollment is a key driver of our revenues. Total enrollments for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were 222.6 thousand, an increase of 34.7 thousand, or 18.5%, over the prior year. Our revenues are subject to annual school district financial audits, which incorporate enrollment counts, funding and other routine financial audit considerations. The results from these audits and other routine changes in funding estimates are incorporated into the Company’s monthly funding estimates for the current and prior periods. Historically, aggregate funding estimates have differed from actual reimbursements, generally in the range of 2% of annual revenue or less, which may vary from quarter to quarter.
32
Environmental, Social and Governance
As overseers of risk and stewards of long-term enterprise value, Stride’s Board of Directors play a vital role in assessing our organization’s environmental and social impacts. They are also responsible for understanding the potential impact and related risks of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) issues on the organization’s operating model. Our Board and management aim to identify those ESG issues most likely to impact business operations and growth. We craft policies that are appropriate for our industry and that are of concern to our employees, investors, customers and other key stakeholders. Our Board helps ensure that the Company’s leaders have ample opportunity to leverage ESG for the long-term good of the organization, its stakeholders, and society. Each Committee of the Board monitors ESG efforts in their respective areas, with the Nominating and Governance Committee coordinating across all Committees.
Since our inception more than 20 years ago, we have removed barriers that impact academic equity. We provide high-quality education for anyone—particularly those in underserved communities—as a means to foster economic empowerment and address societal inequities from kindergarten all the way through college and career readiness. We reinforced our commitment in this area by launching several initiatives including initially offering scholarships to advance education and career opportunities for students in underserved communities, expanding career pathways in socially responsible law enforcement and increasing employment of teachers in underserved communities at Stride-powered schools. We developed interactive, modular courses focused on racial equity and social justice that are being made available for free to every public school.
Among the many ESG issues we support within the Company, we endeavor to promote diversity and inclusion across every aspect of the organization. We sponsor employee resource groups to provide support for female, minority, differently abled, LGBTQ+, and veteran employees and support employee volunteer efforts. Our commitment is evident in the make-up of our leadership team. We have more minorities in executive management and more women in executive management than the representative population. Importantly, our Board of Directors is also diverse with female, Hispanic, and black or African American members.
Our commitment to ESG initiatives is an endeavor both the Board and management undertake for the general betterment of those both inside and outside of our Company.
The nature of our business supports environmental sustainability. Most of our employees work from home and most students at Stride-powered schools attend virtual classes, even prior to the COVID-19 crisis, reducing the carbon output from commuting in cars or buses. Our online curriculum reduces the need for paper. Our meetings are most often held virtually using digital first presentations rather than paper.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our consolidated financial statements. Critical accounting policies and estimates are disclosed in our Annual Report. There have been no significant updates to our critical accounting estimates disclosed in our Annual Report.
Results of Operations
Lines of Revenue
We operate in one operating and reportable business segment as a technology company providing an educational platform to deliver proprietary and third-party curriculum, software systems and educational services designed to facilitate individualized learning. The Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates profitability based on consolidated results. We have two lines of revenue: (i) General Education and (ii) Career Learning.
Enrollment Data
The following table sets forth total enrollment data for students in our General Education and Career Learning lines of revenue. Enrollments for General Education and Career Learning only include those students in full service public or
33
private programs where Stride provides a combination of curriculum, technology, instructional and support services inclusive of administrative support. No enrollments are included in Career Learning for Galvanize, Tech Elevator or MedCerts. This data includes enrollments for which Stride receives no public funding or revenue.
If the mix of enrollments changes, our revenues will be impacted to the extent the average revenue per enrollment is significantly different. We do not award or permit incentive compensation to be paid to our public school program enrollment staff or contractors based on the number of students enrolled.

Revenue Data
Revenues are captured by market based on the underlying customer contractual agreements. Where customers purchase products and services for both General Education and Career Learning markets we allocate revenues based on the program for which each student is enrolled. All kindergarten through fifth grade students are considered General Education students. Periodically, a middle school or high school student enrollment may change line of revenue classification.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
Revenues. Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $551.1 million, representing an increase of $70.9 million, or 14.8%, from $480.2 million for the same period in the prior year. General Education revenues increased $30.1 million, or 10.0%, year over year. The increase in General Education revenues was primarily due to the 11.3% increase in enrollments, and school mix (distribution of enrollments by school). Career Learning revenues increased $40.8 million, or 22.6%, primarily due to a 30.4% increase in enrollments and school mix.
Instructional costs and services expenses. Instructional costs and services expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $335.2 million, representing an increase of $27.9 million, or 9.1%, from $307.3 million for the
35
same period in the prior year. This increase in expense was due to hiring of personnel in growth states and salary increases. Instructional costs and services expenses were 60.8% of revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease from 64.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $168.5 million, representing a decrease of $1.1 million, or 0.6% from $169.6 million for the same period in the prior year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were 30.6% of revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease from 35.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Interest income (expense), net. Net interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $2.4 million as compared to $2.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in net interest expense was primarily due to our finance leases.
Other income (expense), net. Other income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $8.8 million as compared to $5.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in other income, net was primarily due to the increase in our investments in marketable securities and the returns on those investments year over year.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $11.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, or 21.6% of income before income taxes, as compared to an expense of $1.5 million, or 23.9% of income before income taxes for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to the excess tax benefit of stock-based compensation, which was partially offset by the tax impact of non-deductible compensation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2024, we had net working capital, or current assets minus current liabilities, of $1,060.7 million. Our working capital includes cash and cash equivalents of $317.8 million and accounts receivable of $675.7 million. Our working capital provides a significant source of liquidity for our normal operating needs. Our accounts receivable balance fluctuates throughout the fiscal year based on the timing of customer billings and collections and tends to be highest in our first fiscal quarter as we begin billing for students. In addition, our cash and accounts receivable were significantly in excess of our accounts payable and short-term accrued liabilities at September 30, 2024.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, we issued $420.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (“Notes”). The Notes are governed by an indenture (the “Indenture”) between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The net proceeds from the offering of the Notes were approximately $408.6 million after deducting the underwriting fees and other expenses paid by the Company. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.125% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1st and September 1st of each year, beginning on March 1, 2021. The Notes will mature on September 1, 2027. In connection with the Notes, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain counterparties. The Capped Call Transactions are expected to cover the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that initially underlie the Notes, and are expected to reduce potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes. The upper strike price of the Capped Call Transactions is $86.174 per share. The cost of the Capped Call Transactions was $60.4 million and was recorded within additional paid-in capital.
Before June 1, 2027, noteholders will have the right to convert their Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. After June 1, 2027, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until two days prior to the maturity date. We will settle conversions by paying cash up to the outstanding principal amount, and at our election, will settle the conversion spread by paying or delivering cash or shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. The initial conversion rate is 18.9109 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $52.88 per share of common stock. The Notes will be redeemable at our option at any time after September 6, 2024 at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, subject to certain stock price hurdles as discussed in the Indenture.
On January 27, 2020, we entered into a $100.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”) to be used for general corporate operating purposes with PNC Capital Markets LLC. The Credit Facility has a five-year term and incorporates customary financial and other covenants, including but not limited to a maximum leverage ratio and a
36
minimum interest coverage ratio. The majority of our borrowings under the Credit Facility were at LIBOR plus an additional rate ranging from 0.875% - 1.50% based on our leverage ratio as defined in the agreement. The Credit Facility is secured by our assets. The Credit Facility agreement allows for an amendment to establish a new benchmark interest rate when LIBOR is discontinued during the five-year term. As of September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with the financial covenants. As part of the proceeds received from the Notes, we repaid our $100.0 million outstanding balance and as of September 30, 2024, we had no amounts outstanding on the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility also includes a $200.0 million accordion feature.
We are a lessee under finance lease obligations for student computers and peripherals under loan agreements with Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC (“BALC”) and CSI Leasing, Inc. (“CSI Leasing”). As of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the finance lease liability was $90.1 million and $55.6 million, respectively, with lease interest rates ranging from 2.25%to 6.72%.
We entered into an agreement with BALC in April 2020 for $25.0 million (increased to $41.0 million in July 2020) to provide financing for our leases through March 2021 at varying rates. We entered into additional agreements during fiscal year 2021 to provide financing of $54.0 million for our student computers and peripherals leases through October 2022 at varying rates. Individual leases with BALC include 36-month payment terms, fixed rates ranging from 2.25% to 6.72%, and a $1 purchase option at the end of each lease term. We pledged the assets financed to secure the outstanding leases.
We entered into an agreement with CSI Leasing in August 2022 to provide financing for our leases. Individual leases under the agreement with CSI Leasing include 36-month payment terms, but do not include a stated interest rate. We use our incremental borrowing rate as the implied interest rate and the total lease payments to calculate our lease liability.
Our cash requirements consist primarily of day-to-day operating expenses, capital expenditures and contractual obligations with respect to interest on our Notes, office facility leases, capital equipment leases and other operating leases. We expect to make future payments on existing leases from cash generated from operations. We believe that the combination of funds to be generated from operations, borrowing on our Credit Facility and net working capital on hand will be adequate to finance our ongoing operations on a short-term (the next 12 months) and long-term (beyond the next 12 months) basis. In addition, we continue to explore acquisitions, strategic investments and joint ventures related to our business that we may acquire using cash, stock, debt, contribution of assets or a combination thereof.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $142.0 million compared to $135.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The $6.7 million increase in cash used for operations was primarily due to changes in working capital resulting from seasonal fluctuations in accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued compensation and benefits, and accrued liabilities partially offset by higher net income in the current period as compared to the prior year quarter.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $20.9 million compared to $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $13.8 million. The increase was primarily due to higher net purchases of marketable securities of $15.0 million partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures year over year of $1.3 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $20.0 million compared to $13.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $6.2 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the repurchase of restricted stock for income tax withholding of $9.1 million partially offset by a decrease in the repayment of finance lease obligations incurred for the acquisition of student computers of $3.0 million.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Inflation Risk
Current inflation has resulted in higher personnel costs, marketing expenses and supply chain expenses. There can be no assurance that future inflation will not have an adverse or material impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Interest Rate Risk
As of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $317.8 million and $500.6 million, respectively. Our excess cash has been invested in money market funds, government securities, corporate debt securities and similar investments. At September 30, 2024, a 1% gross increase in interest rates for our variable-interest instruments would result in a $3.2 million annualized increase in interest income. Additionally, the fair value of our investment portfolio is subject to changes in market interest rates.
Our short-term debt obligations under our Credit Facility are subject to interest rate exposure. At September 30, 2024, we had no outstanding balance on our Credit Facility.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We currently operate in several foreign countries, but we do not transact a material amount of business in a foreign currency. If we enter into any material transactions in a foreign currency or establish or acquire any subsidiaries that measure and record their financial condition and results of operations in a foreign currency, we will be exposed to currency transaction risk and/or currency translation risk. Exchange rates between U.S. dollars and many foreign currencies have fluctuated significantly over the last few years and may continue to do so in the future. Accordingly, we may decide in the future to undertake hedging strategies to minimize the effect of currency fluctuations on our financial condition and results of operations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
We carried out an evaluation, required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this review, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024.
Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
