THE READ · FREE SUMMARY
Midtown International School shows signs of real financial distress. On the latest filing, net assets are negative on the latest filing — liabilities exceed total assets, so there is no reserve cushion. Revenue is highly concentrated at 98% tuition-dependent (peer median 86%): a soft admissions year would flow straight to the bottom line. Staff compensation runs 49% of expenses, well below the peer median, worth understanding why. Expenses are outpacing revenue -9.9% vs -14.7% per year over three years, signaling margin compression worth flagging. NACUBO Composite Financial Index: -3.7 / 10, distressed.
