Worth knowing

Nerdy paid employees $28M in stock in 2025, 16% of its $179M revenue. It doesn't use cash, so it flatters cash flow, but it is a real cost to shareholders through dilution.
Not profitable yet. Reported a loss in the 12 months to June 2026.
Nerdy reported a net loss over the last twelve months, so earnings-based measures can't show it as cheap.
More volatile share price. Beta 1.79: tends to move more than the market.
Nerdy's shares have swung more with the market than most peers' (beta 1.79, above the market's 1.0).
