Peter Warwick, president and chief executive officer of Scholastic, discussed the company's fiscal 2027 first quarter results during a July 23, 2026 earnings call. He noted that first quarter revenue represented 14% of full-year revenue, with Scholastic Entertainment delivering substantial revenue growth and improved profitability, while the company recorded an operating loss due to seasonality and prior sale-leaseback transactions. Warwick affirmed Scholastic's full-year fiscal 2027 guidance, citing expected growth from a new Dog Man title in November and a strongly growing entertainment business. Warwick expressed confidence in the upcoming fall book fair season, stating that the number of book fairs has been at or above expectations and above last year's levels, with an increase in larger schools participating. He attributed some of the company's outlook to major entertainment properties, remarking that "it's not every quarter that there's a Hunger Games movie" and "it's not every year that Harry Potter begins a 10-year reimagining for a new generation."
