Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Lincoln Educational Services Corporation is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

Valuation data is not available for this company.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
