Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance.

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Nutex Health Inc. plus interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Nutex Health Inc. plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for an allocation to noncontrolling interests, (gain)/loss on warrant liability, stock-based compensation, certain defined items of expense, and any acquisition-related costs and impairments. A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is included below. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to serve as an alternative to U.S. GAAP measures of performance and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.

Fiscal 2026 Operating Income of $15.2 Million; Adjusted EBITDA of $151.5 Million, Up 4%, in Line With Guidance

Returned Over $285 Million to Shareholders During Fiscal Year

Fiscal 2027 Outlook Targets Return to Revenue Growth and Higher Adjusted EBITDA on Comparable Basis

NEW YORK, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Scholastic Corporation (NASDAQ: SCHL), the global children’s publishing, education and media company, today reported financial results for the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended May 31, 2026.

Peter Warwick, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Fiscal 2026 demonstrated the earnings power of a more focused Scholastic, as the Company made substantial progress in a multi-year transformation of its governance, organization, strategy and balance sheet. Adjusted EBITDA rose, in line with guidance, positioning the Company for growth in fiscal 2027.”

Fiscal 2026 revenue decreased 3%, and operating income was $15.2 million, compared with $15.8 million in fiscal 2025. Adjusted operating income, excluding one-time items, increased to $47.1 million from $35.8 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $151.5 million, up 4%, and increased 15% on a comparable basis, reflecting the full-year impact of additional lease expense and the loss of rental income from the sale-leaseback transactions in both periods. In the fourth quarter, Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.0 million on that same comparable basis, driven by continued strong execution in Book Fairs, Entertainment’s return to growth and disciplined cost management across the Company, even as revenue was affected by expected comparisons against an exceptional prior-year quarter in Trade and continued funding volatility in Education.

Mr. Warwick continued, “Today, our company is more clearly organized around the advantages that make Scholastic distinctive: a trusted brand, beloved IP, proprietary school-based channels and deep relationships with educators and families built over more than a century. Scholastic remains uniquely positioned to connect books, schools, homes and screens in ways that deepen kids’ engagement with stories and bring more children back to reading at a scale and depth that others cannot easily replicate.

“During the fourth quarter, we continued to see the impact of this strategy across the business. Book Fairs deepened our reach with schools and families, Trade Publishing remained anchored by enduring children’s franchises, and Entertainment expanded discovery and engagement with Scholastic IP across platforms. In Education, while funding volatility and a challenging supplemental curriculum market continued to pressure results, we made progress repositioning the business around a more focused strategy, improved execution and lower cost structure, with trends improving throughout the year.

“Fiscal 2026 was also an important year of capital deployment and shareholder value creation. Following the sale-leaseback transactions, we returned significant capital to shareholders through share repurchases, a modified Dutch auction tender offer and dividends, and established a long-term leverage framework that supports both disciplined investment and continued capital returns. Together, these actions completed major elements of our financial transformation and provide Scholastic with greater financial flexibility to enhance shareholder returns.

“As we enter fiscal 2027, Scholastic is strongly positioned to translate its durable advantages into profitable, sustained growth. Our outlook reflects expected revenue growth and higher Adjusted EBITDA on a comparable basis, reflecting the full-year impact of the sale-leaseback transactions in both periods. We remain focused on continued execution of our plan, disciplined cost management and targeted investment in the areas where Scholastic has the greatest opportunity to drive long-term growth, deepen our impact with children, families and educators, and create sustained value for shareholders.”

Outlook

In fiscal 2027, the Company expects revenue growth of approximately 2% to 4% and Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $135 million to $145 million. The Adjusted EBITDA range represents growth compared with fiscal 2026 Adjusted EBITDA on a comparable basis, reflecting the full-year impact of the sale-leaseback transactions in both periods.

This outlook reflects expected growth in Children’s Books, Entertainment and International, improved performance in Education, disciplined cost management and targeted investment in long-term growth opportunities.

The Company also expects Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP financial measure, explained in the accompanying tables) of approximately $35 million to $40 million.

Fiscal 2026 fourth-quarter Operating income excluding one-time items and Adjusted EBITDA include
net costs of $4.2 and $7.8, respectively, related to the sale-leaseback transactions completed in
December 2025.

(2)

Pro forma Adjusted operating income and Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA reflect the full-period impact of
the sale-leaseback transactions in each period presented. The Company refers to these measures in
this release as results “on a comparable basis.” See Table 7 for the reconciliation to Adjusted operating
income and Adjusted EBITDA.

Revenues decreased 6% to $476.1 million, as continued growth in Book Fairs and higher Entertainment revenues were more than offset by lower Trade and International revenues due to more challenging comparisons with the prior-year publishing schedule and lower revenues in Education.

Operating Income decreased 4% to $51.4 million in the quarter compared to $53.5 million a year ago, including $6.9 million and $9.9 million in one-time charges in each period, respectively. Excluding one-time charges in both periods, adjusted operating income decreased $5.1 million to $58.3 million. On a comparable basis, reflecting the full-period impact of the sale-leaseback in both periods, adjusted operating income decreased $1.2 million from $59.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure of operations explained in the accompanying tables) was $84.7 million, compared to $91.2 million in the prior-year period. On the same comparable basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.0 million from $83.7 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting improved profitability in Children’s Book Publishing and Distribution and Entertainment, partly offset by lower results in Education and International.

Quarterly Results

Children’s Book Publishing and Distribution

In the fiscal fourth quarter, the Children’s Book Publishing and Distribution segment’s revenues decreased 4% to $276.3 million.

In School Reading Events, Book Fairs revenues were $186.6 million, up 5% from the prior year period, reflecting higher fair count. Book Clubs revenues were $12.2 million, a decline of 7% from the prior year period, primarily reflecting lower participation throughout the year.

Consolidated Trade revenues decreased 20% from the prior year period to $77.5 million, reflecting a challenging comparison with the prior-year publishing schedule, which included the release of Sunrise on the Reaping, the fifth book in Suzanne Collins’ global bestselling The Hunger Games® series.

Segment operating income was $60.3 million, compared to $57.6 million a year ago, which included one-time charges of $0.6 million. Excluding one-time charges, adjusted operating income increased $2.1 million, primarily driven by higher revenues and improved profitability in Book Fairs, partly offset by lower Trade results.

Education

Education revenues decreased 13% to $109.2 million, primarily reflecting continued pressure on school and district spending for supplemental curriculum materials. Segment operating income was $27.0 million, which included one-time charges of $0.9 million, compared to $30.7 million in the prior year period, which included one-time charges of $0.6 million. Excluding one-time charges, adjusted operating income decreased by $3.4 million, as a result of lower revenues, partly offset by benefits from the segment’s improved cost structure. While fourth-quarter revenues remained below the prior year, the rate of decline improved in the second half of fiscal 2026 compared to the first half of the year, as the segment advanced its product, marketing and sales strategies following its repositioning.

Entertainment

Segment revenues increased 42% to $21.0 million, reflecting higher production services revenues. Segment operating income was $0.4 million, which included one-time charges of $0.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.0 million in the prior year period, which included one-time charges of $0.9 million. Excluding one-time charges, adjusted segment operating income improved $2.9 million to $0.8 million, primarily reflecting higher revenues.

International

International revenues decreased 13% to $69.6 million, excluding favorable foreign currency exchange of $3.1 million, primarily reflecting lower Trade revenues against a more challenging comparison with the prior-year publishing schedule. Segment operating income was $2.9 million, which included one-time charges of $0.2 million, compared to $3.7 million in the prior year period, which included one-time charges of $2.4 million. Excluding one-time charges, adjusted operating income decreased by $3.0 million to $3.1 million primarily reflecting lower revenues, partly offset by cost management.

Overhead

Overhead costs were $39.2 million, which included one-time charges of $5.4 million, compared to $35.5 million in the prior year period, which included one-time charges of $5.4 million. Excluding one-time charges, adjusted overhead costs increased $3.7 million to $33.8 million. On a comparable basis, reflecting the pro forma impact of the sale-leaseback transactions in both periods, adjusted overhead costs were approximately in line with the prior-year period.

Revenues decreased 3% to $1,581.9 million, primarily reflecting lower revenues in Education and lower Consolidated Trade revenues against a more challenging comparison with the prior-year publishing schedule, partly offset by strong performance in Book Fairs and higher Entertainment revenues.

Operating Income decreased 4% to $15.2 million, compared to $15.8 million a year ago, including $31.9 million and $20.0 million in one-time charges in each period, respectively. Excluding one-time charges in both periods, adjusted operating income increased $11.3 million to $47.1 million. On a comparable basis, reflecting the full-year impact of the sale-leaseback transactions in both periods, adjusted operating income increased $15.4 million to $35.3 million, compared to $19.9 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA increased $6.1 million, or 4%, to $151.5 million, in-line with the Company’s guidance. On the same comparable basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased 15%, or $17.1 million, to $132.4 million from $115.3 million. The improvement on a comparable basis primarily reflected strong performance in Children’s Book Publishing and Distribution and International, as well as lower adjusted overhead costs, which more than offset the impact of lower sales in Education.

(1) Excludes tax impact from sale-leaseback transactions.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $50.9 million, compared to $124.2 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting higher tax payments associated with the sale-leaseback transactions, as well as higher severance-related payments as part of cost savings initiatives. Free cash flow was $436.0 million in fiscal 2026, compared to $29.2 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting over $400 million in net proceeds from the Company’s sale-leaseback transactions.

The Company ended fiscal 2026 with net cash of $48.9 million compared to a net debt position of $136.6 million at the end of fiscal 2025, primarily reflecting the net proceeds from the sale-leaseback transactions, partly offset by significant capital returns to shareholders.

In fiscal 2026, the Company returned approximately $288.6 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends. This included the repurchase of 7,336,966 shares of common stock for $268.6 million, including shares purchased through the Company’s modified Dutch auction tender offer and open-market repurchases, and $20.0 million of dividends, including $4.6 million in the fourth quarter.

At May 31, 2026, $183.0 million remained authorized for future repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase program. The Company expects to continue purchasing shares, from time to time as conditions allow, on the open market or in negotiated private transactions.
