Gordon Swaby Chief Executive Officer of EduFocal Group (“LEARN”) has released the following unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Group generated revenue of $29.97 million, which remained relatively flat compared to the $30.01 million earned in Q1 2024. This consistency aligns with the Group’s strategic shift toward more predictable recurring revenue streams. Notably, the team has continued to invest heavily in Amigo, a new initiative designed to drive scalable recurring income through a modernized business model.
Operating profit for the first quarter of 2025 amounted to $5.61 million, compared to an operating loss of $12.59 million in Q1 2024. This performance is largely attributed to effective cost-containment strategies and the streamlining of operations.
Administrative expenses totalled $12.88 million, a 62% reduction from the $34.16 million recorded in the prior year’s corresponding period. This drop is aligned with the Group’s internal restructuring and cost-efficiency initiatives.
The Group reported a net loss of $1.34 million, significantly narrowed compared to $20.87 million in Q1 2024. The reduction in losses was achieved despite finance costs of $6.95 million, which continue to weigh on performance.
Amigo, in particular, is extremely important to our future, and we have invested heavily in its development. Early feedback from potential customers about Amigo has been extremely positive, and we anticipate immediate opportunities to leverage this software beyond Jamaica. This investment underscores our commitment to driving top and bottom-line growth through innovative educational solutions.
Performance of Divisions
The Learn division continues to concentrate on the expansion of its market presence globally, aligning with the Group’s strategic objectives for growth and market penetration. With the closure of Academy and the acquisition of Clever School Teacher (CST), EduFocal Nigeria and EduFocal Africa, the division remains committed to widening the group’s footprint in these territories.
The Group is confident in its strategic plan to revitalize its financial outcomes. The Management team is actively addressing these challenges, to mitigate any further associated risks, which will in turn steer the division to sustained growth and profitability.
While the Group continues to operate at a net loss, the significant improvements in EBITDA, cost control, and operating margins are promising indicators of recovery. The management team remains confident in its strategic plan to return to profitability, emphasizing disciplined execution, increased software adoption, and regional expansion.
Financial Position
As at March 31, 2025, total assets stood at $235.41 million, an increase from $228.68 million as at March 31, 2024. The increase reflects stronger receivables and the continued capitalization of software development costs.

Current assets amounted to $71.68 million, with receivables and prepayments of $34 million, a director’s account of $36.76 million, and cash of $914,348.

Long-term borrowings stood at $153.49 million, while current liabilities totalled $216.78 million, largely due to accounts payable of $127.69 million and the current portion of long-term loans amounting to $90.36 million.
