EpicQuest Education Stock Soars 113% on Strong Earnings

EpicQuest Education's stock surged by 102.58% in pre-market trading on August 22, 2025, marking a significant rise that has caught the attention of investors and analysts alike.

EpicQuest Education's stock experienced a remarkable surge of over 113% in after-hours trading on August 21, 2025. This dramatic increase was driven by the company's first-half fiscal results, which exceeded investor expectations. The company reported robust revenue growth and a significant reduction in losses, which has bolstered investor confidence in the company's turnaround efforts.

The company's revenue for the first half of the fiscal year increased by 29.1% to $5.37 million, primarily due to the expansion of international foundational and collaborative programs offered through Davis University and EduGlobal College. This revenue surge was accompanied by a 63.7% gross margin, reflecting operational efficiency gains.

EpicQuest Education also achieved a 95.5% reduction in net loss to $0.16 million, compared to $3.52 million in the first half of 2024. The company's net loss per share improved to $0.02 from $0.26 in the comparable period, and operating loss decreased by 52.7% to $1.96 million. These improvements were driven by higher revenue, reduced cost of services relative to revenue, and a 17.9% decrease in operating expenses to $5.38 million.

The company continues to expand its global recruitment initiatives across China, Southeast Asia, and LATAM markets, with new agreements to boost enrollment from Africa and the Middle East. This internationalization strategy is seen as a key catalyst for the company's strategic growth plan.
