Basis of Presentation
– The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with: (i) generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information; (ii) the instructions to Form 10-Q; and (iii) the guidance of Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They include the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the Company, including its domestic and foreign subsidiaries that are more than 50% owned or otherwise controlled by the Company. As permitted under such rules, certain notes and other financial information normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Management believes the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented herein. The Company’s results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 may not be indicative of the Company’s future results. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
– The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported herein. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the
7
circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in those estimates.
Assets Held for Sale
– An asset or business is classified as held for sale when (i) management commits to a plan to sell the asset or business; (ii) the asset or business is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (iii) the asset or business is actively marketed for sale at a reasonable price; (iv) the sale is expected to be completed within one year; and (v) it is unlikely significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. The assets and related liabilities are aggregated and reported separately in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 2).
Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements
– In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance that requires disclosures about certain significant expense categories including inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and selling expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the disclosures within its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2025, FASB issued new guidance which updates the accounting for internal-use software by removing references to software development project stages and adding new criteria to determine when an entity is required to start capitalizing internal-use software costs. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

12.4
million of goodwill for income tax purposes for the acquisitions completed in 2025.

million of
5.625
% unsecured eight-year fixed-rate notes due December 1, 2033 (the Notes). Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1.
Also on November 24, 2025, the Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes, together with the borrowings under the revolving credit agreement, to (i) redeem the
$
400
million
of
5.75
%
unsecured notes due June 1, 2026, (ii) refinance outstanding revolving loans under the existing revolving credit facility, and (iii) repay all amounts outstanding under the Company’s existing
$

million
term loan.
On October 21, 2025, the automotive subsidiary borrowed $
38.7
million under the delayed draw term loan to finance the acquisition of a Honda automotive dealership, including the real property for the dealership operations.
In combination with the issuance of the Notes, the Company amended and restated the Second Amended and Restated Five Year Credit Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2022, to, among other things, (i) increase the Company’s borrowing capacity by replacing the existing revolving commitments with a new revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of
$
400
million
, (ii) extend the maturity of the facility to November 24, 2030, and (iii) increase the letter of credit sublimit to
$
40
million.
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of the Company’s
5.625
% unsecured notes, based on quoted market prices (Level 2 fair value assessment), totaled $
470.3
million and $
504.0
million, respectively.
The outstanding balance on the Company’s
$
400
million
unsecured revolving credit facility was $
186.2
million as of September 30, 2026, consisting of
U.S. dollar borrowings of
$
120.0
million
with interest payable at SOFR plus
15
1.375
%
,
and
British Pound borrowings of £
50
million with interest payable at Daily Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA) plus
1.375
%.
The fair value of the Company’s other debt, which is based on Level 2 inputs, approximates its carrying value as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company is in compliance with all financial covenants of the revolving credit facility and term loans as of September 30, 2026.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had average borrowings outstanding of approximately $
930.4
million and $
856.8
million, respectively, at average annual interest rates of approximately
5.9
%
and
6.0
%
, respectively. During the
three
months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred net interest expense of
$
14.2
million
and
$
15.7
million
, respectively.
During the
nine
months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had average borrowings outstanding of approximately $
906.7
million and $
835.2
million, respectively, at average annual interest rates of approximately
5.8
% and
6.0
%, respectively. During the
nine
months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred net interest expense of
$
43.2
million
and
$
111.3
million
, respectively.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded a reduction in interest expense of $
0.1
million and $
1.0
million, respectively, to adjust the fair value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded interest expense of $
0.7
million and $
68.3
million, respectively, to adjust the fair
value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest.
The fair value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest was based on the fair value of the underlying subsidiaries owned by GHC One and GHC Two, after taking into account any debt and other noncontrolling interests of its subsidiary investments. The fair value of the owned subsidiaries is determined by reference to either a discounted cash flow or EBITDA multiple, which approximates fair value (Level 3 fair value assessment) (See Note 2 and 8).

(2)
The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities are held in common shares of U.S. and non-U.S. corporations that are actively traded on U.S. and non-U.S. stock exchanges. Price quotes for these shares are readily available.
(3)
Includes mutual funds, which are valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices of the security or inputs that include quoted market prices for similar instruments.
(4)
Included in Other Liabilities. The Company utilized a market approach model using the notional amount of the interest rate swaps multiplied by the observable inputs of time to maturity and market interest rates.
(5)
The fair value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest is based on the fair value of the underlying subsidiaries owned by GHC One and GHC Two, after taking into account any debt and other noncontrolling interests of its subsidiary investments. The fair value of the owned subsidiaries is determined using enterprise value analyses which include an equal weighing between guideline public company and discounted cash flow analyses.
(6)
Included in Accounts payable, vehicle floor plan payable and accrued liabilities and Other Liabilities. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities using either a Monte Carlo simulation, Black-Scholes model, or probability-weighted analysis depending on the type of target included in the contingent consideration requirements (revenue, EBITDA, client retention). All analyses included estimated financial projections for the acquired businesses and acquisition-specific discount rates.

Changes in fair value and accretion of value of contingent consideration liabilities are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses and the changes in fair value of mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest is included in Interest expense in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest.
The mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest represents the ownership portion of a group of minority shareholders, consisting of a group of current and former senior managers of the healthcare business, in subsidiaries of GHG. The Company established GHC One and GHC Two as vehicles to invest in a portfolio of healthcare businesses together with the group of senior managers of GHG. As the holder of preferred units, the Company is obligated to contribute
95
% of the capital required for the acquisition of portfolio investments with the remaining
5
% of the capital coming from the group of senior managers. The operating agreements of GHC One and GHC Two require the dissolution of the entities on March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2029, respectively, at which time the net assets will be distributed to its members. As a preferred unit holder, the Company will receive an amount up to its contributed capital plus a preferred annual return of
8
% (guaranteed return) after the group of senior managers has received the redemption of their
5
% interest in net assets (manager return). All distributions in excess of the manager and guaranteed return will be paid to common unit holders, which currently comprise the group of senior managers of GHG. The Company may convert its preferred units to common units at any time after which it will receive
80
% of all distributions in excess of the manager return, with the remaining
20
% of excess distributions going to the group of senior managers as holders of the other common units. The mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest related to GHC One is reported as a current liability at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest related to GHC Two is reported as a noncurrent liability at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Other.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, in connection with the sale of the KLG disposal group, the Company recognized total impairment charges of $
19.0
million, consisting of a $
1.0
million goodwill impairment charge and an $
18.0
million impairment charge related to the disposal group. The Company used a market approach to estimate the fair value of KLG disposal group (see Note 2 and 6).
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded intangible and other long-lived asset impairment charges of $
2.2
million. The remeasurement of other long-lived assets is classified as a Level 3 fair value assessment due to the significance of unobservable inputs developed in the determination of the fair value. The Company used a discounted cash flow model to determine the estimated fair value of the other long-lived assets. The Company made estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows, discount rates and long-term growth rates.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded impairment charges of $
0.5
million and $
6.3
million on its investments in affiliates (see Note 3). The Company used a market approach to determine the estimated fair value of its investment in affiliates.
18
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded impairment losses of $
0.1
million, to equity securities that are accounted for as cost method investments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded impairment losses of $
1.5
million and $
14.2
million, respectively, to equity securities that are accounted for as cost method investments.
9.
INCOME TAXES
The Company recognized a U.S. income tax benefit of $
68.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, in connection with the restructuring and sale of the KLG business.
No
corresponding tax benefit was recognized in any other jurisdiction. The Company continues to monitor relevant developments, including any forthcoming Internal Revenue Service guidance, that could affect the ultimate realization of this benefit.
As a result of the significant U.S. income tax benefit recorded related to the KLG business, the Company has recorded a Pillar Two top-up income tax accrual and expense of $
15.3
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. In January 2026, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) published administrative guidance introducing a Side-by-Side (SbS) Safe Harbor that would effectively exempt U.S. parent multinational groups from Pillar Two top-up tax on their U.S. source income. The SbS Safe Harbor is only effective to the extent participating countries have enacted legislation adopting the guidance. The Company has assessed current law and administrative guidance in relevant non-U.S. jurisdictions. Currently, not all participating countries have enacted legislation to adopt the SbS Safe Harbor, including the U.K. The Company will continue to monitor local implementation and guidance as non-U.S. countries adopt the SbS Safe Harbor into domestic law. The enactment of such legislation in the U.K. and other jurisdictions would have a favorable impact on the Pillar Two top-up tax accrued for 2026, and could result in a complete reversal of the $
15.3
million accrued amount without payment.
The Company's effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025 was
14.6
% and
30.6
%, respectively.
10.
REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The Company generated
83
% and
81
% of its revenue from U.S. domestic sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. The remaining
17
% and
19
% of revenue was generated from non-U.S. sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025,
79
% and
78
% of revenue, respectively, was from U.S. domestic sales and the remaining
21
% and
22
% of revenue was generated from non-U.S. sales.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized
47
% and
51
%, respectively, of its revenue over time as control of the services and goods transferred to the customer, and the remaining
53
% and
49
% at a point in time, when the customer obtained control of the promised goods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized
51
% and
53
% of its revenue, respectively, over time, and the remaining
49
% and
47
% at a point in time.
Contract Assets.
As of September 30, 2026, the Company recognized a contract asset of $
29.0
million related to a contract at a Kaplan International business, of which $
5.8
million is included in Other current assets and $
23.2
million is included in Deferred Charges and Other Assets. The Company expects to recognize an additional $
186.7

36.5
million, of which $
4.4

4.0
million and $
3.0
million are included in Other current assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Deferred Revenue.
The Company records deferred revenue when cash payments are received or due in advance of the Company’s performance which includes some payments that are refundable due to the contractual right of the customer to cancel the agreement. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025,
17
% and
22
%, respectively, of the Company’s deferred revenue consisted of prepaid amounts which are refundable.

The majority of the change in the deferred revenue balance is related to the cyclical nature of services in the Kaplan International division, the reclassification of deferred revenue included in the DBS disposal group and the derecognition of deferred revenue associated with the sale of the KLG businesses in May 2026 (see Note 2). During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized $
348.7
million related to the Company’s
19
deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2025, including $
67.1
million of prepaid amounts which were refundable at the prior year-end.
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents deferred revenue amounts that will be recognized as revenue in future periods. As of September 30, 2026, the deferred revenue balance related to certain medical and nursing qualifications with an original contract length greater than
twelve months
at Kaplan Supplemental Education was $
4.3
million. Kaplan Supplemental Education expects to recognize
57
% of this revenue over the next
twelve months
and the remainder thereafter.

EARNINGS
PER SHARE
The Company’s unvested restricted stock awards contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends and, therefore, are considered participating securities for purposes of computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The diluted earnings per share computed under the two-class method is lower than the diluted earnings per share computed under the treasury stock method, resulting in the presentation of the lower amount in diluted earnings per share. The computation of the earnings per share under the two-class method excludes the income attributable to the unvested restricted stock awards from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those underlying shares from the denominator.

In June 2026, the Company purchased an irrevocable group annuity contract from an insurance company for $
113.9
million to settle $
124.3
million of the outstanding defined benefit pension obligation related to certain retirees and beneficiaries. The purchase of the group annuity contract was funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plan. As a result of this transaction, the Company was relieved of all responsibility for these pension obligations and the insurance company is now required to pay and administer the retirement benefits owed to approximately
1,080
retirees and beneficiaries, with no change to the amount, timing or form of monthly retirement benefit payments. As a result, the Company remeasured the accumulated and projected benefit obligation as of June 17, 2026 and recorded a pre-tax settlement gain of $
137.0
million. In the third quarter of 2026, the Company made additional lump-sum payments that triggered a remeasurement of its accumulated and projected benefit obligations as of September 30, 2026, resulting in a pre-tax settlement gain of $
15.0
million. The new measurement bases were used for the recognition of the Company’s pension benefit following the remeasurements. The settlement gains are included in non-operating pension and postretirement benefit income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In the third quarter of 2026, the Company recorded $
2.4
million in expenses related to a Separation Incentive Program (SIP) for certain Kaplan, Dekko, Framebridge and Saatchi Art employees. Also in the third quarter of 2026, the Company recorded $
0.8
million in expenses related to a Voluntary Retirement Incentive Program (VRIP) for certain Corporate employees. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded $
2.0
million in expenses related to a VRIP for certain Dekko employees. Also in the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded $
1.9
million in expenses related to SIPs for certain Kaplan, Graham Media Group (GMG), Code3 and Slate employees. In the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded $
4.1
million in expenses related to SIPs for certain Kaplan, GMG, Joyce, Dekko, Framebridge, Code3, Slate and Corporate employees. These SIPs and VRIPs were funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plans.
In the third quarter of 2025, the Company recorded $
2.5
million in expenses related to SIPs for certain Kaplan, GMG, Joyce, Society6, Saatchi Art, Code3 and Corporate employees. In the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded $
6.0
million in expenses related to SIPs for certain Kaplan, GMG, WGB, Saatchi Art, Society6, Code3 and Decile employees. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded $
0.6
million in expenses related to a SIP for certain WGB employees. These SIPs were funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plans.

Defined Benefit Plan Assets.
The Company’s defined benefit pension obligations are funded by a portfolio made up of private investment funds and a relatively small number of stocks and high-quality fixed-income securities that are held by a third-party trustee.
The assets of the Company’s pension plans were allocated as follows:
As of

The Company manages approximately
41
% of the pension assets internally, of which the majority is invested in Berkshire Hathaway stock, with the remaining investments in private investment funds, Markel stock, and short-term fixed-income securities. The remaining
59
% of plan assets are managed by
two
investment companies. The goal of the investment managers is to produce moderate long-term growth in the value of these assets, while protecting them against large decreases in value. Both investment managers may invest in a combination of equity and fixed-income securities and cash. The managers are not permitted to invest in securities of the Company or in alternative investments. One investment manager cannot invest more than
15
% of the assets at the time of purchase in each of the stocks of Alphabet and Berkshire Hathaway, and no more than
50
% of the assets it manages in specified international exchanges at the time the investment is made. The other investment manager cannot invest more than
20
% of the assets at the time of purchase in the stock of Berkshire Hathaway and no more than
15
% of the assets it manages in specified international exchanges at the time the investment is made. Excluding the exceptions noted above, the investment managers cannot invest more than
10
% of the assets in the securities of any other single issuer, except for obligations of the U.S. Government, without receiving prior approval from the Plan administrator.
In determining the expected rate of return on plan assets, the Company considers the relative weighting of plan assets, the historical performance of total plan assets and individual asset classes and economic and other indicators of future performance. In addition, the Company may consult with and consider the input of financial and other professionals in developing appropriate return benchmarks.
The Company evaluated its defined benefit pension plan asset portfolio for the existence of significant concentrations (defined as greater than
10
% of plan assets) of credit risk as of September 30, 2026. Types of concentrations that were evaluated include, but are not limited to, investment concentrations in a single entity, type of industry, foreign country and individual fund. At September 30, 2026, the pension plan held investments in
one
common stock and
one
private investment fund that exceeded
10
% of total plan assets, valued at $
1,253.7
million, or approximately
38
% of total plan assets. At December 31, 2025, the pension plan held investments in
one
common stock and
one
private investment fund that exceeded
10
% of total plan assets, valued at $
1,267.4
million, or approximately
37
% of total plan assets. Assets also included $
99.3
million and $
124.7
million of Markel shares at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

CONTINGENCIES
Litigation, Legal and Other Matters
. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to complaints and administrative proceedings and are defendants in various civil lawsuits that have arisen in the ordinary course of their businesses, including contract disputes; actions alleging negligence, libel, defamation and invasion of privacy; trademark, copyright and patent infringement; real estate lease and sublease disputes; violations of employment laws and applicable wage and hour laws; and statutory or common law claims involving current and former students and employees. Although the outcomes of the legal claims and proceedings against the Company cannot be predicted with certainty, based on currently available information, management believes that there are
no
existing claims or proceedings that are likely to have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, based on currently available information, management believes it is reasonably possible that future losses from existing and threatened legal, regulatory and other proceedings in excess of the amounts recorded could reach approximately $
20
million.
16.

seven

In the first quarter of 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to sell KLG included in Kaplan International and recorded a $19.0 million pre-tax impairment charge. Excluding the impairment charge, Kaplan’s operating income was up in the first nine months of 2026. The KLG transaction closed on May 1, 2026 and the Company recorded a $5.2 million non-operating pre-tax loss on the sale of the business in the second quarter of 2026.
Kaplan International includes postsecondary education and professional training businesses largely outside the United States (U.S.). Kaplan International revenue decreased 22%
for the third quarter
of 2026 (23% decrease on a constant currency basis) and decreased 9% for the first nine months of 2026 (12% decrease on a constant currency basis) due to the sale of KLG and broad declines at Pathways, partially offset by increases at Singapore and UK Professional. Kapl
an International reported
operating income of $17.3 million in the third quarter of 2026, down from $28.9 million in the third quarter of 2025. The decline in operating results was due to broad declines at the Pathways businesses, particularly in the U.S., and meaningful operating income at KLG in the third quarter of 2025 from the seasonally high summer enrollment months. Improved results at UK Professional, Singapore and Kaplan Higher Education UK (formerly Kaplan Open Learning) partially offset this decline. Operating income declined to $81.5 million in the first nine months of 2026, from $88.9 million in the first nine months of 2025. The decline in operating results was from broad declines at the Pathways businesses and increased losses at KLG. Partially offsetting the decline, operating results increased at Singapore, UK Professional, Kaplan Higher Education UK (formerly Kaplan Open Learning) and Australia.
Higher Education includes the results of Kaplan as a service provider to higher education institutions. Higher Education revenue increased 2% and 3% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, respectively, due primarily to an increase in the Purdue Global fee recorded. Enrollments at Purdue Global, the largest institutional client, increased 4% for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025. For the third quarters and first nine months of 2026 and 2025, Kaplan recorded the full fee from Purdue Global. The Company will continue to assess the fee it records from Purdue Global on a quarterly basis to make a determination as to whether to record all or part of the fee in the future and whether to adjust fee amounts recognized in earlier periods. Higher Education operating results improved in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 due to an increase in the Purdue Global fee recorded, and a decline in higher education development costs.
Supplemental Education includes Kaplan’s standardized test preparation programs and domestic professional and other continuing education businesses. Supplemental Education revenue was down 2% for the first nine months of 2026 due to declines in the retail channel of its exam preparation programs; offset in part by growth in the institutional channel. Operating results decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 due to revenue declines.
Kaplan corporate and other represents unallocated expenses of Kaplan’s corporate office, other minor businesses and certain shared activities.
In the third quarter of 2026, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Supplemental Education, Higher Education and Kaplan corporate; $1.3 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded in the third quarter of 2026. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Supplemental Education, Higher Education, Kaplan International and Kaplan corporate; $1.2 million in related non-operating
37
pension expense was recorded in the second quarter of 2026. In the first quarter of 2026, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Kaplan International, Higher Education and Supplemental Education; $1.9 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded in the first quarter of 2026. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Higher Education and Supplemental Education; $1.3 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded in the third quarter of 2025. In the second quarter of 2025, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Higher Education and Supplemental Education; $0.7 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded in the second quarter of 2025.
These programs were funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plan.
In the third quarter of 2026, Kaplan entered into an agreement to sell Dublin Business School (DBS) to China Chunlai Education Group Co., Ltd., a provider of private higher education in China. At September 30, 2026, the Company classified the assets and liabilities of DBS as held for sale. The transaction closed on October 27, 2026. Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, Kaplan sold all of the outstanding shares of Accountancy & Business College (Ireland) Limited, which operates DBS, together with certain intellectual property, for $127.5 million.

Revenue at the television broadcasting division increased
19%
t
o
$125.3 million
in the third quarter of 2026, from $105.1 million in the same period of 2025. The revenue increase is due to a $29.3 million increase in political advertising revenue, partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in retransmission revenue and declines in local and digital advertising revenue. Operating income for the third quarter of 2026 was up 81% to $48.5 million, from $26.8 million in the same period of 2025, due to higher revenues.
Revenue at the television broadcasting division was up 10% to $346.5 million in the first nine months of 2026, from $314.6 million in the same period of 2025. The revenue increase is due to a $45.0 million increase in political advertising revenue and increases from winter Olympics and Super Bowl advertising revenue at the Company’s NBC affiliates in the first quarter of 2026, partially offset by a $6.6 million decrease in retransmission revenue and declines in local and digital advertising revenue. Operating income for the first nine months of 2026 was up 43% to $112.9 million, from $79.1 million in the same period of 2025, due to higher revenues
.
While p
er subscriber rates from cable, satellite and OTT providers have grown, overall cable and satellite subscribers are down due to cord cutting, resulting in retransmission revenue net of network fees in 2026 expected to decline compared with 2025, and this trend is expected to continue.
In the first and second quarters of 2026, the Company offered SIPs to certain employees at the television broadcasting division; $0.6 mil
lion and $0.3 million, respectively, in related non-operating pension expense was recorded.
In the second and third quarters of 2025, the Company offered SIPs to certain employees at the television broadcasting division; $0.1 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded.

Operating results were up 10% in the third quarter of 2026 due to improved operating margins for certain products from the first half of 2026, partially offset by increased incentive compensation expense. Operating results were down for the first nine months of 2026 due to various operational investments including expanding CSI’s pharmacy facility locations; lower operating margins for certain products compared with the first nine months of 2025; and increased incentive compensation expense. The Company expects continued revenue growth at CSI for the remainder of 2026 compared with 2025.
Healthcare also includes Graham Healthcare Group (GHG), which provides home health and hospice services in seven states. In March 2026, GHG acquired Covenant Home Health of Havertown, PA, a home health provider in Eastern Pennsylvania. Healthcare also includes four other businesses: Clarus (provides call management SaaS-based solution for physician groups and hospitals), Impact Medical (an allergy, asthma and immunology physician practice), Skin Clique (a concierge provider of aesthetics products and services) and Surpass Behavioral Health (provides therapy for autism patients). Revenue increased in other healthcare by 11% in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 from growth in home health and hospice services and the other healthcare businesses. Operating results improved at home health and hospice in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, partly due to a reduction in pension expense. Overall, operating results declined at the four other healthcare businesses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026.
In the third quarter of 2025, home health and hospice recorded $1.0 million of lease impairment charges.
The Company also holds interests in four home health and hospice joint ventures managed by GHG, whose results are included in equity in earnings of affiliates in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded equity in earnings of $2.9 million for each of the third quarters of 2026 and 2025 from these joint ventures. The Company recorded equity in earnings of $10.0 million and $9.6 million for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively, from these joint ventures.

Manufacturing includes four businesses: Hoover, a supplier of pressure impregnated kiln-dried lumber and plywood products for fire retardant and preservative applications, and aluminum cladding products for the non-residential market; Dekko, a manufacturer of electrical workspace solutions, architectural lighting and electrical components and assemblies; Joyce, a manufacturer of screw jacks and other linear motion systems; and Forney, a global supplier of products and systems that control and monitor combustion processes in electric utility and industrial applications. On July 15, 2025, Hoover acquired Arconic Architectural Products, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
39
Arconic Corporation (operating as Hoover Architectural Solutions), which manufactures aluminum cladding products and operates within the broader non-residential materials space from its facility in Eastman, GA. A significant portion of the purchase price was funded by the Company’s assumption of $107.5 million in net pension obligations.
Manufacturing revenues increased 19% and 27% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, respectively, due to increased revenues at Hoover, Joyce and Forney, partially offset by lower revenues at Dekko. The revenue increase at Hoover for the first nine months of 2026 is due largely to the Hoover Architectural Solutions business acquisition. Excluding the acquisition, overall volumes increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026. Hoover results included wood gains on inventory sales in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 and 2025. Manufacturing operating results improved in the third quarter of 2026 due largely to significant growth at Forney, and growth at Joyce. Manufacturing operating results increased in the first nine months of 2026 due to significant growth at Joyce and Forney, and improved results at Dekko. The increase was partially offset by an overall decline at Hoover from increased intangible asset amortization and transition costs related to the Arconic acquisition.
In the third quarter of 2026, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Dekko; $0.1 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company offered a VRIP to certain employees at Dekko; $2.0 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded. In the first quarter of 2026, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Dekko and Joyce; $0.2 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company offered a SIP to certain employees at Joyce; $0.1 million in related non-operating pension expense was recorded. These programs were funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plan.

In addition, on October 21, 2025, the Company acquired a Honda automotive dealership in Woodbridge, VA, including the real property for the dealership operations. Automotive also includes Roda, which provides valet automotive repair services in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. Christopher J. Ourisman, a member of the Ourisman Automotive Group family of dealerships, and his team of industry professionals operate and manage the dealerships; the Company holds a 90% stake.
The Company ceased operations of the Ourisman Jeep of Bethesda dealership, which was closed in early September 2025. As a result, the Company recorded a $0.6 million intangible asset impairment charge on the related franchise agreement in the third quarter of 2025.
Revenues for the third quarter of 2026 increased 5% due partly to increased revenues from the Honda of Woodbridge dealership acquisition, offset by the closure of the Ourisman Jeep of Bethesda dealership in September 2025. Excluding these dealerships, revenues were down mostly from declines in new and used vehicle sales, partially offset by sales growth for services and parts. Operating results were up in the third quarter of 2026 due largely to earnings from the Honda of Woodbridge dealership acquisition, the closure of the Ourisman Jeep of Bethesda dealership, and higher overall gross profits on new vehicles and services and parts, partially offset by lower gross profits on used vehicles.
Revenues for the first nine months of 2026 increased 2%, due partly to increased revenues from the Honda of Woodbridge dealership acquisition, offset by the closure of the Ourisman Jeep of Bethesda dealership in September 2025. Excluding these dealerships, revenues were down mostly from declines in new and used vehicle sales, partially offset by sales growth for services and parts. Operating results were up slightly in the first nine months of 2026 due largely to earnings from the Honda of Woodbridge dealership acquisition, the closure of the Ourisman Jeep of Bethesda dealership, and higher overall gross profits on services and parts, partially offset by lower gross profits on new and used vehicles.

Framebridge plans to open additional stores and manufacturing facilities in the fourth quarter of 2026, and continues to actively explore other opportunities for further store and manufacturing expansion.
Revenues grew in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 due to an increase in retail revenue from same-store sales growth and operating additional retail stores compared to the same periods in 2025, and a modest increase in online revenues.

The significant adjustment recorded in the first quarter of 2025 is largely related to a substantial increase in the estimated fair value of CSI. On February 25, 2025, the Company and a group of minority shareholders entered into an agreement to settle a significant portion of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest for a total of $205 million, which consisted of approximately $186.25 million in cash and $18.75 million in Graham Holdings Company Class B common stock.

and 30.6%, respectively.
The Company recognized a U.S. income tax expense of $1.5 million and a benefit of $68.1 million during the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, respectively, in connection with the restructuring and sale of the KLG business.

This accrual relates to non-U.S. jurisdictions that have not yet enacted legislation adopting recent guidance from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), which would exempt U.S. parent multinational groups from Pillar Two top-up tax on their U.S. source income. The enactment of legislation in the U.K. and other jurisdictions would have a favorable impact on the Company’s income tax provision and could result in a complete reversal of the $15.3 million accrued amount without payment.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2025 was based on the estimated full year 2025 effective tax rate, which includes the adverse impact of the permanent difference related to the interest expense recorded to adjust the fair value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest at GHG.

and 4,369,922
for the third quarter and first nine months
of
2025. At September 30, 2026, there were 4,185,665 sh

Cash generated by operations is the Company’s primary source of liquidity. The Company maintains investments in a portfolio of marketable equity securities, which is considered when assessing the Company’s sources of liquidity. An additional source of liquidity includes the undrawn portion of the Company’s $400 million revolving credit facility, amounting to $210.1 million at September 30, 2026.
During the first nine months of 2026, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents decreased by $87.9 million after adjusting for the inclusion of $24.8 million of cash and cash equivalents included in current assets held for sale following the classification of the Dublin Business School disposal group as held for sale. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is due to share repurchases; capital expenditures; business acquisitions and dispositions; dividend payments; the redemption of noncontrolling interests; and net repayments of borrowings. The decrease was partially offset by cash generated from operations, proceeds from the net sale of marketable equity securities and the repayment of a related party loan. In the first nine months of 2026, the Company’s borrowings decreased by $27.3 million, primarily due to repayments under the revolving credit facility and commercial notes at the automotive subsidiary, partially offset by increases in other debt.
As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had money market investments of $7.9 million and $5.3 million, that are included in cash and cash equivalents. At September 30, 2026, the Company held approximately $116 million in cash and cash equivalents in businesses domiciled outside the U.S. that includes $24.8 million of cash and cash equivalents included in current assets held for sale, of which approximately $2 million is not available for immediate use in operations or for distribution. Additionally, Kaplan’s business operations outside the U.S. retain cash balances to support ongoing working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and regulatory requirements. As a result, the Company considers a significant portion of the cash and cash equivalents balance held outside the U.S. as not readily available for use in U.S. operations.
At September 30, 2026, the fair value of the Company’s investments in marketable equity securities was $1,069.7 million, which includes investments in the common stock of six publicly traded companies. During the first nine months of 2026, the Company purchased $25.0 million of marketable equity securities and sold marketable equity securities that generated proceeds of $54.6 million. At September 30, 2026, the net unrealized gain related to the Company’s investments totaled $814.5 million.
The Company had working capital of $1,017.3 million and $1,042.5 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company maintains working capital levels consistent with its underlying business requirements and consistently generates cash from operations in excess of required interest or principal payments.
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $853.4 million and $880.8 million, respectively. The Company’s borrowings at September 30, 2026 were mostly from $500.0 million of 5.625% unsecured notes due December 1, 2033, $186.2 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, and real estate and capital term loans of $146.4 million at the automotive subsidiary. The Company’s borrowings at December 31, 2025 were mostly from $500.0 million of 5.625% unsecured notes due December 1, 2033, $222.5 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, and real estate and capital term loans of $155.9 million at the automotive subsidiary.
44
On November 24, 2025, the Company issued $500 million of 5.625% unsecured eight-year fixed-rate notes due December 1, 2033. Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1. Also on November 24, 2025, the Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the notes, together with the borrow
ings under the revolving credit agreement, to (i) redeem the
$400 million
of
5.75%
unsecured notes due June 1, 2026, (ii) refinance outstanding revolving loans under the existing revolving credit facility, and (iii) repay all amounts outstanding under the Company’s existing
$150 million
term loan.
In combination with the issuance of the Notes, the Company amended and restated the Second Amended and Restated Five Year Credit Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2022, to, among other things, (i) increase the Company’s borrowing capacity by replacing the existing revolving commitments with a new revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of
$400 million
, (ii) extend the maturity of the facility to November 24, 2030, and (iii) increase the letter of credit sublimit to
$40 million.
On October 21, 2025, the automotive subsidiary borrowed $38.7 million under the delayed draw term loan to finance the acquisition of a Honda automotive dealership, including the real property for the dealership operations.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had average borrowings outstanding of approximately $906.7 million and $835.2 million, respectively, at average annual interest rates of approximately 5.8% and 6.0%, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred net interest expense of $43.2 million and $111.3 million, respectively. Included in the net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 is a $1.0 million reduction in interest expense and $68.3 million of interest expense, respectively, to adjust the fair value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest (see Notes 7 and 8).
On February 25, 2025, the Company and a group of minority shareholders entered into an agreement to settle a significant portion of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest related to GHC One, including CSI, for a total of $205 million, which consisted of approximately $186.25 million in cash and $18.75 million in Graham Holdings Company Class B common stock.
The settlement agreement resulted in a $66.2 million increase to the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest obligation, which the Company recorded as interest expense in the first quarter of 2025. The remaining mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest obligation related to GHC One and GHC Two was $7.3 million at September 30, 2026.

The Company expects to fund its estimated capital needs primarily through existing cash balances and internally generated funds, and, as needed, from borrowings under its revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2026, the Company had $186.2 million outstanding under the $400 million revolving credit facility. In management’s opinion, the Company will have sufficient financial resources to meet its business requirements in the next 12 months, including working capital requirements, capital expenditures, interest payments, potential acquisitions and strategic investments, dividends and stock repurchases.

Net cash provided by operating activities consists primarily of cash receipts from customers, less disbursements for costs, benefits, income taxes, interest and other expenses.
For the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025, the decrease in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily driven by changes in operating assets and liabilities, offset by higher net income, net of non-cash adjustments. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were driven by higher purchases of inventory and a significant decrease in the interest expense related to the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest.
