Michael Bernard Chairman One on One Educational Services Limited has released the following unaudited financial statements for the 2nd quarter ended February 29, 2025.
Statement of Comprehensive Income Summary:
Over the six months ending February 2025, company revenue was J$169.9 million, up from J$111.4 million for the six months ended February 2024. This represents a 52.5% increase over the comparative period, primarily due to the expansion of One Academy, which provides personalized educational solutions for schools, teachers and students. Additionally, the company retained its core annual recurring business from existing contracts, further strengthening revenue growth.
For the second quarter of 2025, revenue reached J$78.0 million, reflecting a 37.6% increase over the same period in the prior year. This growth was attributed to the expansion of One Academy and its ability to deliver personalized solutions through advanced technology, enhancing the accessibility and effectiveness of digital education.
Direct costs for the second quarter amounted to J$22.5 million, an increase of J$4.5 million compared to the previous year. This resulted in a gross profit of J$55.5 million, up 43.5% yearover-year. The increase in direct costs was primarily driven by expenditures related to One Academy’s live streaming of classes across the island from the company’s central studio. Over the six-month period, direct costs also saw a 45.3% uptick due to one off investments in hosting infrastructure services and the installation of equipment and accessories to facilitate One Academy’s implementation of live classes. While these expenses have contributed to short-term cost increases, they are a strategic investment aimed at driving long-term value creation.
Administrative and selling expenses decreased by J$24.2 million, or 21.5%, over the six-month period, while the second quarter recorded a 19% decline over the comparable 2024 quarter. This reflects the benefits of cost-cutting initiatives aimed at improving operational efficiencies and financial discipline.
A taxation charge of J$226 thousand was recognized for the second quarter, primarily due to deferred taxation, bringing the six-month tax charge to J$894 thousand. The quarter closed with a net profit of J$7.2 million, a significant improvement compared to the net loss of J$19.9 million recorded in the same quarter last year. For the six-month period, net profit reached J$18.4 million, a strong turnaround from the J$41.4 million net loss over the comparative period.
Statement of Financial Position Summary:
Total assets grew to J$662.6 million at the end of the six-month period, reflecting an 8.2% increase from J$612.3 million in the prior year. This growth was primarily driven by investments in non-current assets, particularly the development of intangible assets. Total equity also strengthened, rising to J$423.4 million from J$362.6 million, supported by the company’s improved financial performance. This shift has allowed the company to move from an accumulated deficit of J$51 million to an accumulated surplus of J$9.5 million compared to the previous year. While, total liabilities reduced marginally by 3% year over year.
Statement of Cash Flow Summary:
The cash flow summary for the second quarter of 2025 highlights a substantial improvement in financial performance compared to the same period in 2024. Operating activities generated J$121.5 million in cash flow, while investing activities had reduced outflows. Additionally, financing activities reflected the company’s efforts to pay down loan obligations. These factors contributed to a net cash increase of J$66.7 million, leading to a stronger closing cash balance of J$110.0 million. This improvement underscores the company’s enhanced cash flow management and liquidity position.
During the quarter, the company remained focused on strengthening its One Academy suite of product offerings. This included the continued live streaming of lessons into high schools in Jamaica. Furthermore, the company leveraged its personalized solutions by developing a testing mechanism that allows schools to assess student performance effectively. This solution empowers schools with comprehensive student assessments, enabling the creation of targeted intervention strategies to improve learning outcomes.
In addition, investments continued in enhancing software architecture, particularly the further development of the integrated Education Management Information System (EMIS) and Learning Management System (LMS). These strategic initiatives reinforce the company’s commitment to advancing education delivery through technology, fostering impactful and accessible learning solutions.
These results reflect the company’s commitment to financial sustainability and operational efficiency while positioning itself for continued expansion and long-term success
