PRDO Stock Recent News

Investors looking for stocks in the Schools sector might want to consider either Perdoceo Education (PRDO) or Universal Technical Institute (UTI). But which of these two stocks presents investors with the better value opportunity right now?

Here is how Perdoceo Education (PRDO) and Rush Street Interactive, Inc. (RSI) have performed compared to their sector so far this year.

These school stocks are thriving as education pivots toward career-ready skills and digital learning, innovative teaching platforms - LRN, LOPE, LAUR, PRDOL and LINC.

I rate Perdoceo Education a 'Buy', driven by strong growth in healthcare and nursing degree enrollments amid shifting education trends, especially among Gen Z. PRDO's fundamentals are attractive: rising healthcare enrollments, a healthy balance sheet, 16% YoY revenue growth, and a low P/E ratio suggest undervaluation. While I remain skeptical of for-profit education, the company's focus on career professionals and resilient healthcare programs reduces risk vs. peers.
