AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · John Wiley & Sons (WLY)

Wiley Q3 reported revenue falls 12% on divestitures; adjusted EPS rises 39%

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Wiley reported third-quarter fiscal 2025 revenue of $405 million, down from $461 million, as divested businesses no longer contributed; adjusted revenue rose 1.2% at constant currency. The GAAP loss per share narrowed to ($0.43) from ($2.08), though a non-cash income tax adjustment and other charges weighed on results. The company reaffirmed its fiscal 2025 outlook at the middle to high end of its ranges and raised its fiscal 2026 Adjusted EBITDA margin target to 25% or more.

Key points

  • Reported revenue of $405 million vs. $461 million in the prior-year quarter, reflecting foregone revenue from divested businesses
  • Operating income of $52 million vs. a loss of $46 million; Adjusted EPS of $0.84, up 39%
  • GAAP EPS loss of ($0.43) vs. ($2.08), primarily due to a $31.7 million non-cash income tax valuation allowance adjustment in the quarter
  • Fiscal 2026 Adjusted EBITDA margin target raised to 25%+ from 24-25%; full fiscal 2026 guidance due June 2025
