THE READ · FREE SUMMARY
Evansville Day School shows signs of real financial distress. Reserves cover 5 months of operating expense, a thin runway. Revenue is highly concentrated at 92% tuition-dependent (peer median 87%): a soft admissions year would flow straight to the bottom line. Staff compensation runs 44% of expenses, well below the peer median, worth understanding why. Three-year net-asset trend is negative (-7.1%/yr), indicating reserve drawdown. NACUBO Composite Financial Index: -0.4 / 10, distressed.
Evansville Day School holds only 5 months of operating expense in reserve — a thin runway that warrants understanding before walking into a campus visit.
