Published: June 18, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

John Wiley & Sons, Inc. is transforming from a print-focused publisher to a tech-driven knowledge platform, leveraging AI licensing and cost discipline to drive profit growth. Despite revenue headwinds from Open Access and lumpy AI deal flow, profitability is rebounding, with margins expanding and recurring AI income gaining traction. WLY shares trade at a steep discount (10x P/E vs. 17x historical), offering a margin of safety, supported by a 3.8% dividend and strong cost controls.

Published: March 27, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha

John Wiley & Sons gets a hold rating today, as upside and downside factors considered did not make a strong buy or sell case. The firm could see growth upside from its work with AI learning models, as well as business growth in Asia and Latin America, across a diversified portfolio that includes learning. A weak net income margin, poor cashflow growth, and unremarkable dividend growth could be a challenge.
