DeVry Beats on Q3 Earnings, Revs—Zack's

DeVry Education Group Inc. (DV) beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for both revenues and earnings in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, for the second quarter in a row. Adjusted earnings of 87 cents per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 75 cents by 16.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. We believe that the company’s return to positive enrollment in the quarter contributed to the earnings beat. Earnings, however, declined 6.5% from the prior-year quarter due to a year-over-year decline in total revenue.
