AI Summary

6.0
Neutral

EDU is no longer just a post-crackdown recovery play: strong K-12-led growth and margin expansion are being offset by weak overseas demand and uneven cash conversion, so the stock likely needs proof that quality earnings are consistently turning into cash before its ~21x multiple can re-rate.
