Wiley reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $386 million, down 3% from $397 million a year earlier, and a GAAP diluted loss of $0.23 per share compared with diluted earnings of $0.22. Adjusted EPS fell 10% to $0.44, and the company reaffirmed its full-year fiscal 2027 outlook. Shareholders face lower quarterly revenue and profit, higher debt after the Emerald acquisition, and a full-year outlook that depends on a second-half recovery the company expects.
