More EdTech companies are changing hands, at lower prices

Edtech acquisitions reached 149 through August 2026, with four months of the year still to go. Prices went the other way. The median disclosed revenue multiple fell from 2.3x to 1.3x, though deals above $160 million carried a median 5.9x in Berkery Noyes' historical sample.

  • 01Corum Group counted 149 edtech acquisitions through August 2026, and the median disclosed revenue multiple dropped from 2.3x in the second half of 2025 to 1.3x in the first half of 2026.
  • 02Only 9% of deals disclose terms, so the number to watch is whether disclosed deal value starts rising alongside deal count or stays near $6.5 billion.

A $4 billion repair backlog will now shape Louisiana's college building budgets

A $4 billion repair backlog will now shape Louisiana's college building budgets

A Gordian assessment prepared for the Board of Regents puts the deferred maintenance backlog at Louisiana's public colleges at $4 billion. Buildings in the LSU and University of Louisiana systems average 64 years old, compared with 53 years for the community and technical colleges. Those findings now sit alongside a $1.25 billion capital request covering 73 projects.

  • 01Louisiana's state buildings are 70% concentrated on public postsecondary campuses, making higher education the primary owner of state-owned facility inventory.
  • 02The University of Louisiana System has the largest share of highest-risk buildings (over 50 years old) at 35%, while the community and technical college system leads in low-risk buildings at 22%.
  • 03The $1.25 billion capital outlay request covers 73 construction projects but measures construction and new work, not the $4 billion deferred maintenance backlog, representing different funding categories.
