Bright Scholar Education Holdin (NYSE:BEDU)

We are the largest operator of international and bilingual K-12 schools in China in terms of student enrollment as of September 1, 2016, according to the Frost & Sullivan report. We are dedicated to providing quality international education to Chinese students and equipping them with the critical academic foundation and skillsets necessary to succeed in the pursuit of higher education overseas. We also complement our international offerings with Chinese government-mandated curriculum for students who wish to maintain the option of pursuing higher education in China. We established one of the first private schools in China in 1994 and have since expanded our network to operate 51 schools as of February 28, 2017, covering the breadth of K-12 academic needs of our students across seven provinces in China. In the first half of the 2017 school year, we had an average of 29,230 students enrolled at our schools, representing an increase of 54.6% from an average of 18,913 students enrolled during the 2014 school year. Bright Scholar Holdings, our ultimate Cayman Islands holding company, does not have any substantive operations other than indirectly controlling BGY Education Investment, our affiliated entity which controls and holds our schools, through certain contractual arrangements.
