AI summary

Graham's stock closes at $1140.01, down 1.3% on the day, with its close sitting between the 50-day average of $1162.54 and the 200-day average of $1128.79, reflecting a mixed short-term trend. Over the past six months the shares have gained 8.5%, though the one-year return stands at -1.8%. The GekkoIndex reads 58.1, placing GHC in the Neutral zone, with a five-day change of -1.3. Against this backdrop, Gekko Fair Value is set at $1509.41, putting the current price 24.5% below that level.

The next earnings report is scheduled for 28 October 2026, before the open, 29 days out and beyond a typical 20-trading-day holding window. The prior report on 29 July 2026 showed actual EPS of 19.46 against an estimate of 14.83, with a 1% reaction, and the company has beaten estimates in 7 of the last 8 quarters, with an average absolute reaction of 2.4%. No insider, Congress, or unusual options activity appears in the current windows, though one billionaire holder is noted. Seasonality over the past 5 years shows the next 20 trading days averaging -1.7%, with gains in only 1 of those years, a pattern worth noting alongside the consensus analyst target of $990, which implies a -13.2% consensus upside from current levels.

About Graham

Graham operates across education, media and a mix of other industries rather than a single line of business. On the education side it provides test preparation, data science training, professional certification courses, and support services for accounting and financial professionals, along with English-language instruction and exam readiness programs. It also backs a group of colleges, a business school and an online learning platform, and supplies non-academic support to Purdue University Global. In media, it runs seven television stations and publishes Slate and Foreign Policy, along with French-language Slate editions and tools that help newsrooms engage with audiences on social platforms.

Beyond education and media, Graham's operations reach into home health and hospice care, industrial manufacturing of burners, igniters, dampers and controls, linear motion equipment, treated lumber and plywood, cybersecurity training, digital advertising, power and lighting systems, electrical components, restaurants and entertainment venues, and car dealerships. This spread means its revenue comes from a wide mix of customers across consumer, business and institutional markets rather than one core client base.

Graham traces back to 1877 and is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia; it operated for decades as The Washington Post Company before adopting its current name in November 2013. Its shares are listed on the NYSE under the ticker GHC.
