Item 7.01Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

As previously disclosed, on March 9, 2020, Perdoceo Education Corporation (the “Company”) received a letter from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (the “VA”) notifying the Company that if it fails to remedy its deficiency through corrective action within 60 days, the VA will disapprove, for purposes of VA educational assistance programs, the enrollment of individuals not already enrolled in programs at the Company’s institutions. On May 26, 2020, the VA further extended the 60 day period referenced in its letter through June 25, 2020 to allow the Company time to respond to the VA’s further clarification of the corrective action requirements. The Company continues to believe that its detailed responses to the VA should demonstrate that any corrective actions deemed necessary to address the matters identified in the VA’s letter were previously taken. See Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview – 2020 First Quarter Overview – Regulatory Updates,” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 for additional information about this matter.
