Description: EDU New Oriental Education January 07, 2026
New Oriental Education & Technology Group Inc. (NYSE: EDU) delivers private K-12 and test-preparation services across China under the New Oriental brand, operating four segments: (1) educational services and test-prep courses, (2) private-label products and livestream e-commerce, (3) overseas-study consulting, and (4) educational-materials publishing and distribution. The firm also runs the Koolearn.com online platform and offers intelligent learning devices to support a blended digital-in-class experience.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached CNY 14.6 billion, up ~8% YoY, driven by a 15% surge in livestream e-commerce sales; operating margin compressed to 12.4% as the company absorbed higher staffing costs and regulatory compliance expenses. The sector’s growth is underpinned by China’s still-large cohort of 15-25-year-olds and rising household spending on supplemental education, but is increasingly exposed to tightening government restrictions on for-profit tutoring.
