BMO Capital analyst Jeffrey Silber raised the firm’s price target on Laureate Education (LAUR) to $23 from $21 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company reported a slight adjusted EBITDA beat driven by better-than-expected secondary starts, and its core 2025 guidance was solid, though it was also impacted by multiple items including f/x headwinds, timing and campus consolidation in Mexico, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
