Zovio dissolves, trying to sell Fullstack Academy - bjcheung77 - 10-01-2022
But look at that asking or selling price of $55 million! I mean, I don't think they'll get close to that deal... Wow, they used to own two for profits that brought in close to 1 billion in revenue in 2012, fast forward 10 years, they've gone down the drain...

The article says FullStack is expected to sell for between $34 million and $55 million.

Looks like I was right. Some time ago I wrote "I wish Zovio --- nothing. And that's likely what they'll end up with." Seems that's coming true. Zovio had a disaster with their problematic Ashford U. - then they sold it to U. of Arizona, and were to handle the University's distance operation. The University later cancelled their contract.
I just checked their stock. 14 cents a share. Definitely an appropriate time to dissolve. The only people who will shed a tear are the investors. And of course, those who lost jobs.

Certifications are now being issued ACE credit recommendations, so these boot camps might become more valuable.

Thankfully when UofA cancelled the contract they brought over the majority of employees that they were working with.
