What Happened?

On August 10, 2026, before the market opened, Lincoln reported earnings for the second quarter of 2026. Among other things, the Company reported student starts increased by only 1% year over year despite enrollment growing 9%, “as fewer enrolled students than expected attended the first day of class.” The Company further disclosed that “during the quarter, we observed changes in the student decision-making process that affected conversion from enrollment to start” and that Lincoln “ha[s] taken, and [will] continue to take, actions to address these trends . . . .”

On this news, Lincoln’s stock price fell $10.22 or 24.93% to close at $30.77 on August 10, 2026, thereby injuring investors

What Is the Lawsuit About?

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) that the Company’s admissions process was not effectively converting students from enrollment to start; (2) that, as a result, the Company was experiencing a significant drop in student starts relative to enrollment; and (3) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Lincoln Educational Services Corporation securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than 60 days from the date of this notice to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff.
