Leader Education Ltd. has reported its financial results for the six months ended 28 February 2025. The company saw a revenue increase of RMB1.4 million, or 0.8%, from RMB170.8 million for the same period in 2024 to RMB172.2 million in 2025. This growth was primarily driven by a 12.7% increase in revenue from boarding fees, which rose from RMB11.8 million to RMB13.3 million. In contrast, revenue from tuition fees experienced a slight decrease of RMB62,000, falling from RMB159.0 million to RMB158.9 million. Despite the increase in revenue, the company's profit for the period decreased by approximately 15.2%, amounting to RMB24.2 million compared to the previous year's figure. The gross profit margin also declined from 38.0% to 33.3%, primarily due to the higher growth in costs relative to revenue. The company attributed this to expenses incurred for constructing and maintaining campus buildings and organizing student activities and teacher trainings in preparation for the qualification evaluation of undergraduate teaching work. As of 28 February 2025, Leader Education Ltd. reported a slight decrease in student enrollment, with 11,909 full-time students, down 0.3% from the previous school year. The average tuition fees for undergraduate college programs remained unchanged during the reported period. No specific outlook or guidance for future financial performance was provided in the report.
