Tuition revenue is recognized in the quarter of instruction. Tuition revenue is shown net of any
refunds, withdrawals, corporate discounts, scholarships and employee tuition discounts. At the
time of registration, a liability (unearned tuition) is recorded for academic services to be
provided and a tuition receivable is recorded for the portion of the tuition not paid upfront in
cash. Revenues also include application fees, placement test fees, withdrawal fees,
textbook-related income and other income, which are recognized when incurred.

shares of common stock outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings per share reflects the

determined using the treasury stock method. Stock options are not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share when the stock option exercise price of an individual grant exceeds the
average market price for the period. At March&nbsp;31, 2009 and 2010, all issued and outstanding stock
options were included in the calculation.

the net unrealized gains and losses for changes in fair value as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income in stockholders&#146; equity. Realized gains and losses from the sale of
marketable securities are based on the specific identification method. At March&nbsp;31, 2010, all of the Company&#146;s investments were classified as Level 1. Items not subject
to fair value reporting include cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling $91.8

in some instances, was reimbursed by the lessors for improvements made to the leased properties. In
accordance with the Operating Leases Subtopic, ASC 840-20, these improvements were capitalized as
leasehold improvements and a long-term liability was established for the reimbursements. The
leasehold improvements and the long-term liability are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
corresponding lease terms, which range from five to ten years. As of December&nbsp;31, 2009 and March
31, 2010, the Company had deferred lease incentives of $3.7&nbsp;million and $3.9&nbsp;million, respectively.

whether uncertain tax positions should be recognized within the Company&#146;s financial statements. As
a result of the implementation of ASC 740, no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized
income tax benefits was recognized. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at the adoption date
of January&nbsp;1, 2007 and at March&nbsp;31, 2010 is immaterial. The Company recognizes interest and
penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, the

2006-2009 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions in which the Company is

2010 and ended March&nbsp;29, 2010, increased 21% to 55,106 students compared to 45,697 students for the
same term in 2009. Across the Strayer University campus network, new student enrollments increased
16% and continuing student enrollments increased 22%. Global online enrollments increased 39%,
while students taking 100% of their classes online (including campus based students) increased 19%.
The total number of students taking any courses online (including students at brick and mortar
campuses taking at least one online course) in the 2010 winter term increased 20% to 39,448.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Revenues</I>. Revenues increased 27% to $157.9&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2010 from $124.5&nbsp;million
in the first quarter of 2009, principally due to a 21% increase in enrollment and a 5% tuition
increase at the beginning of 2010.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Instruction and educational support expenses. </I>Instruction and educational support expenses
increased $9.9&nbsp;million, or 25%, to $49.0&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2010 from $39.1&nbsp;million in
the first quarter of 2009. This increase was principally due to direct costs necessary to support
the increase in student enrollments, including faculty compensation, related academic staff
salaries and campus facility costs, which increased $3.6&nbsp;million, $2.5&nbsp;million, and $1.9&nbsp;million,
respectively. Instruction and educational support expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased
to 31.0% in the first quarter of 2010 from 31.4% in the first quarter of 2009, largely due to
faculty costs growing at a lower rate than tuition revenue.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Marketing and admissions expenses. </I>Marketing and admissions expenses increased $4.8&nbsp;million, or
25%, to $24.7&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2010 from $19.9&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009.
This increase was principally due to the direct costs required to build the Strayer University
brand and attract prospective students, and the addition of admissions personnel, particularly at
new campuses. Marketing and admissions expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 15.7% in
the first quarter of 2010 from 16.0% in the first quarter of 2009, as the higher rate of tuition
growth offset incremental costs that were attributable to the opening of four new campuses for
spring term 2010 compared to three new campuses for the spring term in the prior year.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>General and administration expenses. </I>General and administration expenses increased $6.4&nbsp;million, or
35%, to $24.3&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2010 from $17.9&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009.
This increase was principally due to increased employee salaries and related costs, higher bad
debt expense, and other administrative expenses (e.g., professional services, travel, relocation,
etc.), which increased $1.2&nbsp;million, $1.1&nbsp;million, and $2.7&nbsp;million, respectively, over the prior
year. General and administration expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 15.4% in the
first quarter of 2010 from 14.4% in the first quarter of 2009 primarily due to the increase in
other administrative expenses.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Income from operations. </I>Income from operations increased $12.3&nbsp;million, or 26%, to $59.9&nbsp;million in
the first quarter of 2010 from $47.6&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009, due to the
aforementioned factors.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Investment and other income. </I>Investment and other income decreased $0.3&nbsp;million to $0.2&nbsp;million in
the first quarter of 2010 from $0.5&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009. The decrease was
principally due to lower investment yields partly offset by a higher average cash balance.

the 1,184 issues in this fund had an average credit rating of AA, an average maturity of 1.5&nbsp;years,
an average duration of 1.3&nbsp;years, as well as an average yield to maturity of 0.9%. We had no debt

million for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2010 compared to $6.6&nbsp;million for the same period in 2009.
During the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2010, we paid a regular, quarterly common stock dividend of
$10.5&nbsp;million ($0.75 per share), and we received $0.5&nbsp;million upon the exercise of 6,667 stock
options. During the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2010, we invested $15.0&nbsp;million to repurchase
66,900 shares of common stock at an average price of $224.23 per share as part of a previously
announced common stock repurchase authorization. Our remaining authorization for common stock
repurchases was approximately $75.0&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2010.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the first quarter of 2010, bad debt expense as a percentage of revenues was 3.2% which remained
unchanged from the same period in 2009. Days sales outstanding, adjusted to exclude tuition
receivable related to future quarters, was 13&nbsp;days at the end of the first quarter of 2010 compared
to 15&nbsp;days at the end of the first quarter of 2009.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Currently, we invest our cash in bank overnight deposits, money market funds and a short-term,
tax-exempt bond fund. In addition, we have available a $15.0&nbsp;million line of credit facility.
There have been no borrowings under this credit facility. We believe that existing cash and cash
equivalents, cash generated from operating activities, and if necessary, cash borrowed under the

ABOUT MARKET RISK</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is subject to the impact of interest rate changes and may be subject to changes in the
market values of its future investments. The Company invests its excess cash in bank overnight
deposits, money market funds, and a short-term, tax-exempt bond fund. The Company has not used
derivative financial instruments in its investment portfolio.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Earnings from investments in bank overnight deposits, money market mutual funds, and short-term,
tax-exempt bond funds may be adversely affected in the future should interest rates change. The
Company&#146;s future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates
or the Company may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have declined in
market value due to changes in interest rates. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, a 10% increase or decrease in
interest rates would not have a material impact on the Company&#146;s future earnings, fair values, or
cash flows related to investments in cash equivalents or interest earning marketable securities.
