iStep Learning plc's recent filing highlights significant revenue growth driven by expanded government-funded childcare hours, acquisitions like Rocking Horse Nursery, and fee increases. However, administrative expenses surged due to IPO preparation costs, leading to higher operating losses. Gross margins improved from 29.3% to 33.2% in nine months ended March 2026, but finance costs rose from £0.3M to £0.4M due to lease transactions. The company faces risks from rising administrative costs, potential asset impairments, and reliance on government subsidies.
