I have maintained a 'Buy' rating for New Oriental Education (EDU) after evaluating its results and prospects. EDU delivered better-than-anticipated revenue and earnings in 3QFY2026, thanks to cross-selling synergies and enhanced operational efficiency. Management's Q4 guidance implies continued high-teens revenue growth; this is supported by expectations of higher learning center utilization and lower marketing expenditures.
