Barrington analyst Alexander Paris kept his Outperform rating and $15 price target on Bridgepoint Education after its Q2 results, noting that both earnings and revenues topped estimates while new student enrollment also recovered to positive after 7 down quarters. The analyst believes that the quarter marks an inflection point in enrollment and expects growth to return in 2019. Despite the 25% rise in the stock price heading into earnings, the analyst notes that valuation on Bridgepoint Education at 5.9-times his expected 2018 estimates is still attractive relative to the 12.2-times group average.
