Stride, Inc.

Good day, everyone, and welcome to the Stride and Q2 FY 2025 earnings call. Just a reminder, today's call is being recorded. I would now like to hand things over to Mr. Tim Casey. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you, and good afternoon. Welcome to Stride's second quarter earnings call for fiscal year 2025. With me on today's call are James Rue, Chief Executive Officer, and Donna Blackman, Chief Financial Officer. As a reminder, today's conference call and webcast are accompanied by a presentation that can be found on the Stride Investor Relations website. Please be advised that today's discussion of our financial results may include certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures is provided in the earnings release issued this afternoon and can also be found on our Investor Relations website. In addition to historical information, this call may also involve forward-looking statements. The company's actual results could differ materially from any forward-looking statements due to several important factors as described in the company's latest SEC filings. These statements are made on the basis of our views and assumptions regarding future events and business performance at the time we make them, and the company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made during this call. Following our prepared remarks, we'll answer any questions you may have. Now, I'll turn the call over to James.

James? Thanks, Tim. We have once again posted record enrollments, topping 230,000 students. We continue to execute against the backdrop of ongoing strong demand. Coming out of the pandemic, we were all uncertain if the increase in demand for our programs was structural or temporary. And for three consecutive years now, we have seen increasing growth in our business and also for three consecutive years, we see continued in-year strength in demand. The macro environment for our business is as strong as ever, and as long as we can continue to execute effectively, I believe we can benefit from these conditions. While every business has challenges, I believe most of ours are currently within our control. Many of our most significant challenges are to just continue to improve not just in how we have traditionally run our core business, but across all of our initiatives. That includes initiatives that I believe can take our core business to a new level while also providing us with new market opportunities. We see some early signs that our investments will pay off, but we need to remain vigilant to ensure we are setting ourselves up for success over the long run. I remain very bullish on our prospects for future growth. We're seeing continued demand for our core offerings growing support for school choice options, and a student base seeking real career training. As a company, we're in strong financial position and have an incredible team committed to delivering for our customers. Thank you, and I will now turn the call over to Donna.
