Educational Development Corporation (EDC) is a publishing company that specializes in children’s books and educational products, operating in the publishing industry with a unique focus on literacy and educational manipulatives.
In its third quarter fiscal 2025 earnings report, EDC announced a decrease in net revenues to $11.1 million from $16.9 million in the previous year, alongside strategic measures to improve profitability and efficiency.

The company also reported a reduction in average active PaperPie Brand Partners, with figures dropping to 12,400 from 16,400.
