LEARNING TREE ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2010 RESULTS

Reston, VA — May 11, 2010 – Learning Tree International, Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRE) announced today its revenues and results of operations for its second quarter of fiscal year 2010, which ended April 2, 2010. Revenues for the quarter ended April 2, 2010 were $28.3 million compared with $30.5 million for the same quarter of the prior fiscal year.

For its second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the company reported a loss from operations of $2.2 million, an improvement compared to the loss from operations of $2.5 million for its second quarter of fiscal year 2009. In its second quarter of fiscal year 2010, Learning Tree recorded a one-time charge of $1.1 million for an expected period of vacancy due to the exercise of an option by one of its London education center sub tenants to terminate its sublease. In its second quarter of fiscal year 2009, Learning Tree had recorded one-time charges of $0.8 million for restructuring costs and $0.4 million related to a potential sale of the company. The net after-tax loss for the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $1.3 million compared with the $1.4 million net after-tax loss for the second quarter of fiscal year 2009. Loss per share for the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $0.09, unchanged from the same quarter of fiscal year 2009.

Revenues for the first six months of fiscal year 2010 were $60.8 million compared with $68.5 million for the same period in fiscal year 2009. Learning Tree’s income from operations for the first six months of its fiscal year 2010 was $1.7 million. This compares to income from operations of $0.2 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2009.

Net income for the first half of fiscal year 2010 was $1.2 million, or $0.08 per share. This compares to net income of $0.5 million, or $0.03 per share, for the first half of fiscal year 2009.

“We are pleased with our cost control and revenue enhancement measures, as the year-over-year decline in our quarterly revenues was the smallest since the financial crisis began in 2008,” Learning Tree President and CEO Nicholas R. Schacht commented. “We also see positive signs from our customers going forward, including strong interest in Learning Tree AnyWare™, our patent-pending online learning platform which allows online participation from any location in live Learning Tree instructor-led classes, and a new contract we were recently awarded by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, which could be worth up to $60 million over five years.”
