CORINTHIAN COLLEGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2005



Note 1 - The Company and Basis of Presentation



As of September 30, 2005, Corinthian Colleges, Inc. (the Company) operated 94 schools and colleges in the for-profit, post-secondary
education industry in the United States, and 34 colleges and 14 training centers in 7 Canadian provinces. All of the Companys schools grant either diplomas or degrees (associates, bachelors and masters) and offer educational
opportunities from an extensive and diverse curricula library with an emphasis on four primary concentrations: allied health, business, technology, and criminal justice. Additionally, the Company has an online learning alternative available to
students pursuing education exclusively online and is approved to offer 17 accredited degrees to exclusively online students.



The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted or condensed pursuant to such
regulations. The Company believes the disclosures included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, when read in conjunction with the June 30, 2005 consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the
Companys 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K and notes thereto, are adequate to make the information presented not materially misleading. In managements opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to summarize fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for such periods. The results of operations for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006.



The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2004, June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005 and for the three
months ended September 30, 2004 and 2005 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries that it directly or indirectly controls through majority ownership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.



The financial position and results of
operations of the Companys direct and indirect Canadian subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the Canadian subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using exchange rates in
effect at the balance sheet dates. Income and expense items are translated at monthly average rates of exchange. The resultant translation adjustments are included as a component of Stockholders Equity designated as accumulated other
comprehensive income. Exchange gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are immediately included in earnings.



Certain amounts for the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to fiscal 2006 financial statement presentation.



Leases



The Company currently leases almost all of its administrative and
educational facilities under operating lease agreements. On February 7, 2005, the Office of the Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission (OCASEC) issued a letter to the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants expressing its views regarding certain operating lease accounting issues and their application under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. In light of this letter, the Company initiated a review of its
lease-related accounting and determined that its previous method of accounting for leasehold improvements funded by landlord incentives or allowances under operating leases (tenant improvement allowances) was not in accordance with the
guidance provided by OCASEC.

##### Table of Contents

The Company had historically accounted for tenant improvement allowances as reductions to the related
leasehold improvement asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and capital expenditures in investing activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Management determined that the appropriate interpretation of Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Technical Bulletin No. 88-1, Issues Relating to Accounting for Leases, requires these allowances to be recorded as a deferred rent liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets
and as a component of operating activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result of these reclassifications, the purchases of leasehold improvements and related amortization expense will increase and will be offset by a
corresponding increase in the deferred rent liability and a reduction in rent expense for all periods presented. There is no impact on the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a result of this reclassification. For the three months
ended September 30, 2004, the Company reclassified $2.8 million in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows from purchases of property and equipment included in investing activities to depreciation and amortization and other
liabilities included in operating activities.



Note 2 - Correction of
Revenue Recognition for Certain Diploma Programs



During
2005, following a review of the Companys revenue recognition policy, and taking into consideration the requirements of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, the Company concluded that the accounting policies to
recognize revenue on a monthly basis and only over the period of in-school instruction should be changed. Accordingly, the Company has restated its financial statements for schools previously recognizing revenue on a monthly basis to adopt a
mid-month convention for revenue recognition whereby only a half month of revenue is recognized in both the initial month and the final month of attendance for students in diploma programs. Additionally the Company has changed its policy with
respect to externships to recognize tuition revenue through the end of each students externship period.



Prior period financial statements and the related notes thereto presented herein have been restated to reflect the impact of the change in our revenue
recognition policy. The effect of the change on first quarter 2005 revenue and provision for income taxes was a decrease of $5.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The effect of the change on first quarter 2005 net income was a decrease of $3.6
million, or $0.04 per diluted share. First quarter 2005 net income per diluted share decreased from $0.20, as previously reported, to $0.16 as a result of the restatement. For additional information, refer to Note 2 Correction of Revenue
Recognition for Certain Diploma Programs of our notes to consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2005, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005, filed with
the SEC on September 13, 2005.



Note 3 - Stock Based Compensation



In the first quarter of fiscal 2006, we adopted SFAS
No. 123(R) in accordance with the modified-prospective-transition method and began recognizing compensation expense for stock options which vested during the quarter. The adoption of this method increased compensation expense by $2.0 million
(pre tax) in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

##### Table of Contents

Awards which vested in fiscal year 2005 and earlier were accounted for under the intrinsic value method
prescribed in APB No. 25. No compensation expense related to options was recognized because the exercise price of our employee stock options equaled the market price of the underlying stock on the grant date. If we had elected to recognize
compensation cost based on the fair value of the awards at the grant date, net earnings would have been the pro forma amounts shown below:

During the quarter
ended September 30, 2005, the Company issued 130,411 shares in connection with the exercise of stock options.



Note 4 - Weighted Average Number of Common Shares Outstanding



Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net
income per share reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities, consisting of stock options and restricted stock units.



The table below reflects the calculation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in computing basic and diluted net income per
common share (in thousands):

Note 5 - Sale of Corporate Training Division



The Company has entered into a definitive agreement whereby a third-party buyer will purchase substantially all the assets
of CDI Education, the Companys corporate training division. CDI Education provides corporate information technology (IT) and business skills training at 14 locations throughout Canada, and had revenues of approximately Cdn$7.7 million, Cdn$37
million and Cdn$6.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, fiscal year ending June 30, 2005 and the quarter ended September 30, 2005, respectively.



Under the terms of the agreement, which is subject to customary conditions to closing, the Company will receive a cash
payment at closing of Cdn$19 million, plus or minus a working capital adjustment that will be made approximately 90 days post-closing. The resultant gain or loss on sale is not expected to be significant.



Note 6 - Marketable Securities



Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115,
Accounting For Certain Debt and Equity Securities requires that all applicable investments be classified as trading securities, available-for-sale securities or held-to-maturity securities. The Company does not currently have any trading
securities or held-to-maturity securities.



Securities
classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs and for other purposes. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value and include all debt and equity securities not classified as
held-to-maturity or trading. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of any income tax effect, as a separate component of stockholders equity. Realized gains and losses
for securities classified as available-for-sale are reported in earnings based on the adjusted cost of the specific security sold. At June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005, there were no unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale
securities.



Note 7 - Acquisitions



On August 2, 2004, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets
of A.M.I., Inc. (AMI). AMI operates one campus in Daytona Beach, Florida, which offers accredited diploma programs in the motorcycle, marine and personal watercraft technician fields. The purchase price was approximately $11.7 million,
plus the assumption of certain liabilities of approximately $0.5 million. The Company funded the acquisition with available cash. The Company has assigned value to other intangible assets, such as accreditation, trade names, curriculum and other
under SFAS 141. The Company purchased AMI to enter into the growing field of motorcycle, marine and personal watercraft technicians and adds to the Companys growing transportation-related technical curricula, providing the Company with an
additional platform for growth and enhancement of its technology programs. AMI also offers specialized motorcycle technician and dealership management programs. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and
AMIs results of operation are include in the consolidated results of operations of the Company since August 2, 2004, its acquisition date.



Note 8 - Comprehensive Income (Loss)



Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the total of net income (loss) and all changes that impact stockholders equity other than transactions
involving stockholders ownership interests. The following table details the components of comprehensive income (loss) for the three month period ended September 30, 2004 and 2005:

Note 9 - Impairment, Facility Closing, and Severance Charges



During fiscal 2005, the Company decided to cease the implementation of the
Peoplesoft Student Management System. As a result of this decision, the Company reviewed the related long-lived asset for possible impairment in accordance with SFAS 144 and recognized an impairment charge of $16.3 million which approximated net
book value. The Company also consolidated two campuses in Mississauga, Ontario and recorded a facility closing charge of $1.6 million and severance of $0.4 million related to restructuring of personnel.



During fiscal 2004, the Company implemented a plan to streamline operations
at several of its divisions, including the recently acquired CDI. The plan primarily included closing two LTU campuses and 10 CDI campuses. In addition, the Company has reviewed the long-lived assets and goodwill related to these closures for
possible impairment in accordance with SFAS 142 and SFAS 144. Based on the results of the review, the Company recognized an impairment, facility closing, and severance charge of $12.4 million in fiscal 2004. The fair value of the remaining goodwill
was based on the Companys estimate of discounted future cash flows. The Company charged $6.4 million of the impairment, facility closing, and severance charge against earnings. The charge included $2.8 million of intangible asset impairment,
$389,000 of fixed asset write-offs and $3.2 million of severance, lease, and other costs. The remaining $6.0 million, consisting primarily of facility closing costs, qualified for treatment under EITF 95-3 Recognition of Liabilities in
Connection with a Purchase Combination and was recorded as an element of the acquisition. The accrual for severance and benefits is reflected in accounts payable. The accrual for lease payments on vacated facilities is reflected in accounts
payable and other long-term liabilities and is expected to be paid out over the lease terms, the latest of which expires in 2012.



The table below summarizes the liability and activity for the three months ended September 30, 2005, relating to the impairment, facility closing and
severance charges:

No one customer
accounted for more than 10% of the Companys consolidated revenues. Revenues are attributed to regions based on the location of customers.



Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies



In the ordinary conduct of the business, the Company and its colleges are subject to occasional lawsuits, investigations and claims, including, but not
limited to, claims involving students and graduates and routine employment matters. When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount
of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records a liability for the loss. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the specific claim if the likelihood of
a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved is material. There can be no assurance that the ultimate outcome of any of the matters disclosed below will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition
or results of operations.



On March 8, 2004, the Company
was served with two virtually identical putative class action complaints entitled Travis v. Rhodes Colleges, Inc., Corinthian Colleges, Inc.,and Florida Metropolitan University,and Satz v. Rhodes Colleges, Inc., Corinthian
Colleges, Inc., and Florida Metropolitan University. Additionally, on May 7, 2004, the Company received another putative class action complaint entitled Jennifer Baker, et al. v. Corinthian Colleges, Inc. and Florida Metropolitan
University, Inc.and on April 15, 2005, the Company received a complaint entitled Alan Alvarez, et al. v. Rhodes Colleges, Inc., Corinthian Colleges, Inc., and Florida Metropolitan University, Inc. The Bakercomplaint names
nine plaintiffs while the Alvarezfirst amended and supplemental complaint names ninety-nine plaintiffs. Additionally, the court in the Alvarezcase granted the plaintiffs motion to add an additional seven plaintiffs to the first
amended and supplemental complaint. The named plaintiffs in these lawsuits are current and former students in the Companys Florida Metropolitan University (FMU) campuses in Florida and online. The plaintiffs allege that FMU
concealed the fact that it is not accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and that FMU credits are not transferable to other institutions. The Baker, Satzand Travisplaintiffs seek recovery of compensatory damages and attorneys fees under common law and Floridas Deceptive and Unfair Trade

##### Table of Contents

Practices Act for themselves and all similarly situated people. The Alvarezplaintiffs seek damages on behalf of themselves under common law and
Floridas Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act. The arbitrator in the Satzcase found for the Company on all counts in an award on the Companys motion to dismiss. The arbitrator also found that Satz breached his agreement with
FMU by filing in court rather than seeking arbitration and is therefore responsible to pay FMUs damages associated with compelling the action to arbitration. The arbitrator recently denied Saltzs motion for reconsideration. The Company
believes the other complaints are likewise without merit and will vigorously defend itself, Rhodes Colleges, Inc., and FMU against these allegations. The Company has filed motions to compel arbitration in Bakerand Alvarez, and the
Travis court recently compelled that case to arbitration.



From July 8, 2004 through August 31, 2004, various putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California by certain alleged purchasers of our common stock against the
Company and certain of its current and former executive officers, David Moore, Dennis Beal, Paul St. Pierre and Anthony Digiovanni. On November 5, 2004, a lead plaintiff was chosen and these cases are now consolidated into one action. A
first consolidated amended complaint was filed in February 2005. The consolidated case is purportedly brought on behalf of all persons who acquired shares of the Companys common stock during a specified class period from August 27, 2003
through July 30, 2004. The consolidated complaint alleges that, in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
defendants made certain material misrepresentations and failed to disclose certain material facts about the condition of the Companys business and prospects during the putative class period, causing the plaintiffs to purchase the
Companys common stock at artificially inflated prices. The plaintiffs further claim that Messrs. Moore, Beal, St. Pierre and Digiovanni are liable under Section 20(a) of the Act. The plaintiffs seek unspecified amounts in damages,
interest, and costs, as well as other relief. On September 6, 2005, the court granted the Companys motion to dismiss, without prejudice. On October 3, 2005, the lead plaintiff filed a second consolidated amended complaint. The
Company intends to continue vigorously defending itself and its current and former officers in this matter.



Between July 21, 2004 and July 23, 2004, two derivative actions captioned Collet, Derivatively on behalf of Corinthian Colleges, Inc., v.
David Moore, et al.and Davila, Derivatively on behalf of Corinthian Colleges, Inc., v. David Moore, et al., were filed in the Orange County California Superior Court against David Moore, Dennis Beal, Dennis Devereux, Beth Wilson, Mary
Barry, Stan Mortensen, Bruce Deyong, Loyal Wilson, Jack Massimino, Linda Skladany, Paul St. Pierre, Michael Berry, and Anthony Digiovanni, and against the Company as a nominal defendant. Each individual defendant is one of the Companys current
or former officers and/or directors. The lawsuits allege breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment, and violations of the California corporations code, essentially based on
the same allegations of conduct complained of in the initial federal securities class action complaints. The Colletand Davilacases have now been consolidated into one action, and a consolidated complaint has been filed. The Company
believes the consolidated complaint is without merit and intends to vigorously defend the Companys directors and current and former executive officers against the allegations. This consolidated action has been stayed by the court pending a
decision on the Companys motion to dismiss in the federal securities action, although plaintiffs have been permitted leave to file an amended complaint.



The California Attorney Generals Office has requested that the Company provide documentation regarding three of its California Bryman Colleges
and certain other general Company policies and procedures. The Attorney Generals office has not asserted any claims against the Company and the Company is continuing to cooperate with the inquiry.



In February 2005, the Company received a putative class action demand in
arbitration entitled Michelle Sanchez v. Corinthian Colleges, Inc., filed by a former diagnostic medical sonography student from the Companys Bryman College campus in West Los Angeles, alleging violations of the California education
code and of Californias Business and Professions Code Section 17200. The Company believes the demand is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against these allegations.



In February 2005, the Company was served with a lawsuit entitled Nancy
Tsai v. Corinthian Colleges, Inc., et al., filed by twenty-four current or former medical assisting students from the Companys National Institute of

##### Table of Contents

Technology campus in Long Beach, California, alleging fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair
dealing, and violation of California Business and Professions Code Section 17200, regarding alleged misrepresentations about the eligibility of such students to take the Certified Medical Assistant examination. The complaint does not seek
certification as a class action. The Company has filed demands in arbitration against each of the individual plaintiffs for breach of their contractual obligation to arbitrate rather than litigate disputes with the Company and has prevailed on its
motion with the California Superior Court to compel the plaintiffs to binding arbitration. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.



On April 6, 2005, the Company was served with a lawsuit entitled Jaclyn Fisher, et al. v. Corinthian Colleges, Inc., filed by forty-one
current or former medical assisting students from the Companys Bryman College campus in Tacoma, Washington, dating back to before the Company acquired the campus. The plaintiffs allege negligent/intentional misrepresentations and violations of
the state consumer protection act regarding alleged misrepresentations about the eligibility of such students to take the Certified Medical Assistant exam. The complaint does not seek certification as a class action. The Company removed the case to
federal court and prevailed on its motion to compel twenty-one of the plaintiffs with arbitration provisions to binding arbitration. Additional individual lawsuits in federal and state court and demands in arbitration have been filed by the same
counsel to the original forty-one plaintiffs which contain virtually identical allegations and which raise the total number of students involved to approximately ninety. The additional students are primarily from the Companys Bryman, Tacoma
campus, but are also alleged to have attended the Bryman campuses in Lynwood and Renton, Washington. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in these matters.



In addition to the legal proceedings and other matters described above, the Company is or may be a party to pending or
threatened lawsuits related primarily to services currently or formerly performed by the Company. Such cases and claims raise difficult and complex factual and legal issues and are subject to many uncertainties and complexities, including, but not
limited to, the facts and circumstances of each particular case or claim, the jurisdiction in which each suit is brought, and differences in applicable law. Upon resolution of any pending legal matters, the Company may incur charges in excess of
presently established reserves. While any such charge could have a material adverse impact on the Companys results of operations in the period in which it is recorded or paid, management does not believe that any such charge would have a
material adverse effect on the Companys financial position or liquidity.



The Company is also subject to various environmental laws and regulations. The Companys operations involve the use of substances regulated under environmental laws. While it is difficult to quantify the
potential impact of compliance with environmental protection laws, management believes that such compliance will not have a material impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations or liquidity.



Performance Bonds



As a condition of doing business, certain states and Canadian Provinces require the Company to post collateral in the form
of a surety bond or other similar instruments, which are issued by independent insurance carriers (the Surety). If any of the governmental entities that hold these bonds should require payment from the Surety, the Company would be
obligated to indemnify and reimburse the Surety for all costs incurred. As of September 30, 2005 the Company had $11.3 million of these bonds outstanding.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that may constitute forward-looking statements as defined
by the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as believes, estimates, anticipates,
continues, contemplates, expects, may, will, could, should or would, or the negatives thereof. Those statements are based on the intent, belief or
expectation of the Company as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties that are outside the control of the Company. Results may differ
materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein as a result of changes in governmental regulations, including those governing student financial aid, the effect of competitive pressures on the Companys tuition pricing,
integration risks associated with acquired campuses and other factors, including those discussed under the headings entitled Governmental Regulations and Financial Aid and Risks Related to Our Business in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 0-25283) and other documents periodically filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking
statement contained herein to reflect any change in the Companys expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. The following discussion of the Companys results
of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the interim unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto included herein and in conjunction with the information contained in the Annual Report
on Form 10-K.



Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts on those financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to our allowance for doubtful accounts, intangible assets, deferred taxes,
contingencies and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different conditions or if our assumptions change.



We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements:



Revenue Recognition. Revenues consist primarily of tuition and fees derived from courses taught in our colleges, schools, and
training centers. Revenues from tuition and fees are recognized pro-rata (on a straight-line basis) over the relevant period attended by the student of the applicable course or program. If a student withdraws from a course or program, the paid but
unearned portion of the students tuition is refunded. Textbook sales and other revenues are recognized as sales occur or services are performed and represent less than 10% of total revenues. Prepaid tuition is the portion of payments received
but not earned and is reflected as a current liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as this amount is expected to be earned within the next year. For the corporate education services in our Pegasus division we recognize revenue
using the percentage of completion method for long duration service contracts and as services are provided for short duration programs.



Students attending our post-secondary institutions enroll in either (i) diploma programs, which cover a specific area of training
over a discrete length of time (averaging nine months for such programs) or (ii) courses leading to an associates, bachelors or masters degree. Costs of programs or credit hours for courses
are clearly identified in our enrollment agreements. At the start of each students respective program or courses of study leading to a degree, the student executes an enrollment agreement which specifies the field of
study, the expected length of study, and the cost of the program or courses. We



14

##### Table of Contents

recognize revenue from tuition and fees on a straight-line basis over the relevant period attended by the student of the applicable course or program of
study. If a student withdraws from an institution, we cease the recognition of revenue and the paid but unearned portion of the students tuition is refunded. Additionally, to ensure the delivery of education has occurred, either attendance is
taken or academic events are conducted at appropriate intervals to ensure that the student is completing his or her respective field of study within the acceptable time period.



Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses
resulting from the inability, failure or refusal of our students to make required payments. We determine the adequacy of this allowance by regularly reviewing the accounts receivable aging and applying various expected loss percentages to certain
student accounts receivable categories based upon historical bad debt experience. We generally write off accounts receivable balances deemed uncollectible as they are sent to collection agencies. We offer a variety of payment plans to help students
pay that portion of their education expense not covered by financial aid programs. These balances are unsecured and not guaranteed. We believe our reserves are adequate; however, losses related to unpaid student balances could exceed the amounts we
have reserved for bad debts.



Many of our
students in the U.S. participate in federally guaranteed student loan programs. The federally guaranteed student loans are authorized by the Higher Education Act (HEA) of 1965 and are guaranteed by an agency of the federal government.
The guaranteed loans are not guaranteed by us, and the guaranteed student loans cannot become an obligation of ours. Accordingly, we do not record an obligation to repay any of the guaranteed loans that are not repaid by our former students and we
do not record either a contingent obligation or an allowance for future obligations as a result of student defaults of federally guaranteed student loans.



The guarantee of student loans is provided by an agency of the federal government, not by us. If an institutions former
students default rate on guaranteed loans (Cohort Default Rate) equals or exceeds 25% for three consecutive years, the institution may lose participation eligibility in the guaranteed loan program and its students would be denied access to the
guaranteed loan program. Our institutions Cohort Default Rates act as a gatekeeper to their eligibility to participate in the federal student financial aid programs. We have no obligation to repay any of the federally guaranteed loans that our
former students default upon, even if the Cohort Default Rates of our students exceed permitted levels. Rather, if the Cohort Default Rates at a particular institution exceed 25% for three consecutive years, the institutions students may lose
eligibility to receive federal student financial aid.



Goodwill and Intangible Assets. We have significant goodwill and other intangible assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired, including identified intangible assets. We
consider a number of factors, including valuations and appraisals from independent valuation firms, in determining the amounts that are assignable to other intangible assets, such as curriculum, accreditation, and trade names. We, however, are
ultimately responsible for the valuations. The fair value of identified intangible assets is derived using accepted valuation methodologies, including cost, market, and income approaches, as appropriate, following consultations with valuation firms
and in accordance with SFAS No. 141 and requirements set forth by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.



Effective July 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS
No. 142). This standard changed the accounting for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. As of July 1, 2002, we ceased amortization of goodwill recorded in
conjunction with past business combinations. In addition, we conducted a review of our other identifiable intangible assets and determined that accreditation and trade names met the indefinite life criteria outlined in SFAS No. 142. Our review
considered analysis of all pertinent factors, including the expected use of the asset, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors, and
the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the asset. Accordingly, we also ceased

amortization of the accreditation and trade names as of July 1, 2002. Curricula continue to be amortized over their useful lives ranging generally from
three to ten years and the amortization is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.



Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is tested annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment, by comparing its
fair value to its carrying amount at the reporting unit level as defined by SFAS No. 142. We determined the fair value of our reporting units using the income approach of valuation that includes discounted cash flow as well as other generally
accepted valuation methodologies. To the extent the fair value of a reporting unit is less that the carrying amount of its assets, we record an impairment charge in the consolidated statements of operations.



Also, under SFAS No. 142, indefinite-lived intangible
assets are tested annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment, by comparing their fair values to their carrying amounts. To the extent the fair value of an intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, we record
an impairment charge in the consolidated statements of operations. For instance, if we were to discontinue the use of a trade name or lose accreditation at one or more of our acquired schools to which we have ascribed value for trade names and
accreditation, we would test the amounts we have allocated to such assets for impairment. Such testing would include estimating the future cash flows expected to be received from the trade names and accreditation and comparing them to their carrying
values. If our estimate of the present value of these future cash flows were below the carrying values of the related assets, we would consider the assets to be impaired and take a charge against the amounts we had allocated to trade names and
accreditation.



The determination of related
estimated useful lives of intangible assets and whether or not these intangible assets are impaired involves significant judgment. Although we believe our goodwill and intangible assets are fairly stated, changes in strategy or market conditions
could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to asset balances.



Deferred Taxes. We currently have deferred income tax assets which are subject to periodic recoverability assessments. Valuation
allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that more likely than not will be realized. Realization of our deferred income tax assets is principally dependent upon achievement of projected future taxable
income offset by deferred income tax liabilities. We evaluate the realizability of our deferred income tax assets annually.



Contingencies.In the ordinary conduct of the business, we are subject to occasional lawsuits, investigations and claims,
including, but not limited to, claims involving students and graduates and routine employment matters. When we are aware of a claim or potential claim, we assess the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and
the amount of the loss can reasonably estimated, we record a liability for the loss. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, we disclose the nature of the specific claim if the likelihood of a potential
loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved is material. There can be no assurance that the ultimate outcome of any of the matters disclosed will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.



Stock-based Compensation. In fiscal
2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, in accordance with the modified prospective transition method and began recognizing compensation expense for stock
options which vested during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Prior to fiscal 2006, we accounted for stock option awards under the intrinsic value method prescribed in accounting Principles Board (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees which resulted in no compensation expense because the exercise price of the stock options was equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The pro forma impact of the accounting for those awards at
fair value is disclosed in Note 3Stock Based Compensation.



Results of Operations



Comparisons of results
of operations between the first three months of fiscal 2006 and the first three months of fiscal 2005 are affected by the opening of five branch campuses and the acquisition of 1 campus in fiscal 2005.

Three Months Ended
September 30, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2004



Certain amounts presented below for the three months ended September 30, 2004 have been restated to reflect the change in our revenue recognition policy with respect to certain diploma programs, as discussed in
Note 2 Correction of Revenue Recognition for Certain Diploma Programs to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements above.



Net Revenues.Net revenues increased $11.7 million, or 5.2%, from $224.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $236.3 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2006, due primarily to a 6.8% increase in the average tuition rate per student, partially offset by a 1.1% decrease in average student population during the period. At September 30, 2005, student population was 68,262,
compared with 70,500 at September 30, 2004. Core growth in revenues increased 5.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 ended September 30, 2005. We define core growth in revenues as the increase in revenues, including revenues from
branches opened during the last four full quarters, but excluding revenues attributable to colleges, schools, and training centers acquired within the last four full quarters. Total student starts decreased 4.8% to 26,753 for the first quarter of
fiscal 2006 when compared to the first quarter of last year due primarily to inefficient lead processing and admission representative turn-over.



Educational Services.Educational services expenses include direct operating expenses of the schools consisting primarily of payroll and payroll
related expenses, rents, occupancy costs, supply expenses, bad debt expense and other educational related expenses. As a percentage of net revenues, educational services expenses increased from 55.0% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2005
to 58.1% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The increase, as a percent of revenues, was due primarily to increases in facility costs, bad debt expense and depreciation and compensation. Bad debt expense for the first quarter of fiscal
2005 amounted to $13.5 million or 5.7% of net revenues, compared to $11.2 million or 5.0% of net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2005, primarily due to higher bad debt in six of our degree granting schools. Educational services expenses

##### Table of Contents

increased $13.7 million, or 11.1%, from $123.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $137.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Overall,
the increase in educational services expenses was primarily due to compensation, facility cost, bad debt and depreciation. Additionally, during the first quarter, 15 new programs were adopted into existing schools, including 12 program adoptions
into our campuses in the U.S. and 3 program adoptions into our campuses in Canada.



General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses include incentive bonuses, corporate payroll related expenses, headquarters office rents and occupancy expenses, professional fees and other
support related expenses. As a percentage of net revenues, general and administrative expenses increased from 8.8% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to 9.5% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The increase, as a percentage
of revenues, was due primarily to an increase in public company compliance expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $2.6 million, or 13.1%, from $19.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $22.4 million in the first quarter
of fiscal 2006.



Marketing and Admissions.Marketing and
admissions expenses consist primarily of direct-response and other advertising expenses, payroll and payroll related expenses, promotional materials and other related marketing costs. As a percentage of net revenues, marketing and admissions
expenses increased from 24.9% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to 26.6% of revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily as a result higher advertising costs and investments in lead processing technologies. Marketing and
admissions expenses increased $6.9 million, or 12.4%, from $55.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $62.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.



Stock Based Compensation.Stock based compensation expense resulted from our initial adoption of SFAS 123(R) during
the first quarter of fiscal 2006. As a percentage of net revenues, stock based compensation expense represents 0.8% of revenues.



Income from Operations.Income from operations decreased 53.4% from $25.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $11.8 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2006. As a percentage of net revenues, income from operations decreased from 11.3% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to 5.0% of revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2006.



Interest (Income) Expense, net.Interest income (net of interest
expense of $.9 million) amounted to $0.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. In the same period of the prior year, interest expense (net of interest income of $0.4 million) amounted to $0.5 million. The decrease in net interest expense
compared to the prior year is primarily due to an increase in interest income due to an increase in interest earning investments.



Provision for Income Taxes. The effective income tax rate was 41.7% of income before taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to 39% in
the first quarter of fiscal 2006.



Net Income. Net
income decreased $7.2 million from $14.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $7.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. As a percentage of net revenues, net income decreased from 6.5% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2005
to 3.1% of revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2006.



Income per Share. Diluted earnings per common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 decreased 50% to $0.08 per diluted common share compared to $0.16 per diluted common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2005.



Seasonality and Other Factors Affecting Quarterly Results



Our net revenues normally fluctuate as a result of seasonal variations in
our business. Student population varies as a result of new student enrollments and student attrition. Historically, our colleges, schools, and training centers have had lower revenues in the first fiscal quarter than in the remainder of the year.
Our expenses, however, do not vary as significantly as student population and revenues. We expect quarterly fluctuations in



18

##### Table of Contents

operating results to continue as a result of seasonal enrollment patterns. More importantly, quarterly results may be impacted based on the timing and extent
of new acquisitions, new branch openings, relocations and remodels, new program adoptions and increased high school enrollments. The operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future period.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



On June 8, 2005, we amended and restated our credit facility for the
second time. The amount of the facility remained at $235 million, of which $175 million is a domestic facility and $60 million is a Canadian facility. The second amended and restated credit agreement expires in 2010. The second amended and restated
credit agreement has been established to provide available funds for acquisitions, to fund general corporate purposes, and to provide for letters of credit issuances of up to $50 million for domestic letters of credit and $20 million for Canadian
letters of credit. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at several pricing alternatives available to us, including Eurodollar and adjusted reference or base rates. The domestic base rate is defined as the higher of the Federal Funds rate
plus 1/2 of 1% or the Bank of America prime rate. The Canadian base rate is defined as the higher of the average rate for 30 day Canadian Dollar bankers acceptances plus 3/4 of 1% or the Bank of America Canada prime rate. The agreement
contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including financial covenants requiring the maintenance of consolidated net worth, fixed charge coverage ratios, leverage ratios, and a DOE financial responsibility composite score ratio. As of
September 30, 2005, we were in compliance with all of the covenants. As of September 30, 2005, the credit facility had borrowings outstanding of $56.0 million and approximately $15.7 million was used to support standby letters of credit.
The second amended and restated credit agreement is secured by the stock of our significant operating subsidiaries and it is guaranteed by our present and future significant operating subsidiaries.



Working capital amounted to $101.3 million as of September 30, 2005 and
$90.3 million as of June 30, 2005 and the current ratios were 1.7:1 and 1.6:1, respectively. During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we completed the acquisition of AMI. The purchase price was approximately $11.0 million, plus the assumption
of certain liabilities of approximately $0.5 million. We funded the acquisition with available cash.



Cash flows provided by operating activities amounted to $24.9 million in the first three months of fiscal 2006 compared to $35.9 million provided by
operating activities in the same period of fiscal 2005. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the first three months of fiscal 2006 compared to the first three months of fiscal 2005 was primarily due to the reduction of net
income of $7.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2005.



Cash flows used in investing activities amounted to $44.4 million in the first three months of fiscal 2006 compared to cash flows used in investing
activities of $28.4 million in the first three months of fiscal 2005. Cash was used in the first three months of fiscal 2006 to invest in short term investments for $33.3 million and capital expenditures of $11.0 million. Cash used in investing
activities in the first three months of fiscal 2005 was due to the acquisition AMI for $9.7 million and capital expenditures of $18.7 million. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2006 were incurred, primarily, for relocations, remodels and enlargements
of existing campuses and to fund information systems expenditures. We expect capital expenditures to be approximately $55 million for fiscal 2006.



Cash flows provided by financing activities for the first three months of fiscal 2006 amounted to approximately $1.6 million compared to cash flows
provided by financing activities of $0.1 million for the first three months of fiscal 2005. The increase in cash provided by financing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2006 compared to the same period last year, was due primarily to a
reduction in principal repayments in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2005. We funded our cash needs through cash flow provided from operations.



On October 27, 2005, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase of up to $70 million of our Companys common
stock.

Update Regarding Regulatory and Accreditation Matters



There has been no material change in the status of the show cause orders
disclosed in our fiscal 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, however, the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology (ACCSCT) issued a show cause order to our National Institute of Technology campus in
Houston (Greenspoint), Texas, relating to the schools placement outcomes and we responded to ACCSCT in advance of its next commission meeting, currently scheduled for November, 2005.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
|------- | ---------------------------------------------------------



We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. We do not utilize interest rate swaps, forward or option
contracts on foreign currencies or commodities, or other types of derivative financial instruments to manage these risks.



Interest Rate Exposure.As of September 30, 2005, our only assets or liabilities subject to risks from interest rate changes are
(i) mortgage debt and debt under the credit facility in the aggregate amount of $57.3 million and capital lease obligations of $12.3 million, and (ii) student notes receivable, net, in the aggregate amount of $4.8 million. Our mortgage
debt, capital lease obligations and student notes receivable are all at fixed interest rates. We do not believe we are subject to material risks from reasonably possible near-term changes in market interest rates.



Foreign Currency Exposure.A portion of our operations consists of an
investment in a foreign subsidiary whose functional currency is the Canadian dollars. Our investment in our foreign operations as of September 30, 2005 was CAD $75.0 million and we had borrowings outstanding under the credit facility of CAD
$65.0 million. As a result, the consolidated financial results have been and could continue to be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------



As reported in Part II, Item 9A Controls and Procedures in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30,
2005, in connection with reviewing our financial results for the fourth quarter of 2005, our management reviewed and discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and with Ernst & Young LLP, our independent auditors, the
accounting treatment related to the recognition of tuition revenue with respect to our diploma programs with externships. In connection with these discussions, and following consultation with our independent registered public accounting firm, we
determined it was necessary to restate the previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years 2001 through 2004 and the first three quarters of fiscal 2005. Externships are required to be taken at the end of certain academic programs,
following the conclusion of in-school instruction, in order to satisfy graduation requirements. The restatement consisted of adjustments necessary to reflect the recognition of tuition revenue through the end of the students externship period,
as opposed to the prior practice of recognizing revenue only over the period of in-school academic instruction. Revenue recognition in the financial statements requires procedures and controls to ensure that all of a companys revenue
arrangements are analyzed, recorded, and monitored in the context of authoritative accounting guidance such that revenue is recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In managements opinion, our procedures and
controls in this area were considered to be inadequate, and this deficiency was considered to represent a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2005. In the first quarter of 2006, we completed the
remediation steps described in Part II, Item 9A Controls and ProceduresRemediation Steps to Address Material Weakness in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005, to address the material
weakness described above. The material weakness was remediated as of September 30, 2005.



The Company and its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluate the effectiveness of the design and implementation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures

##### Table of Contents

on an ongoing basis. Based on these evaluations, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2005. Except as noted above, there has been no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the Companys most recent
fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
