Universal Technical Institute lays out long-term growth targets of $1.2 billion in revenue and $220 million in EBITDA for 2029, but signals near-term headwinds from an expected enrollment shortfall of about 1,000 high‑school graduates and a shift in demand toward shorter, cheaper programs. The company plans to open four new campuses annually (two UTI, two Concorde) and expects $110–120 million in annual capital expenditures plus upfront costs; payback periods are about five years per UTI campus. For 2026 it forecasts roughly $900 million in revenue, net income of $32–36 million and EBITDA of $100–103 million; management is addressing recruitment issues by increasing the number of school representatives and investing more in trade offerings. » More on de.investing.com
