Arco Complements Its Supplemental Portfolio With the Acquisition of PGS and Mentes do Amanhã

Arco Platform Limited, or Arco (Nasdaq: ARCE) today announced that it has acquired in Brazil the following solutions from Pearson Education do Brasil Ltda.:

(i) PGS: a K-12 bilingual courseware and teaching methodology, previously known as Pearson Global School; and

(ii) Mentes do Amanhã (“Mentes”): a K-12 supplemental solution focused on 21st century skills (social-emotional learning, financial literacy, and technology)

This transaction broadens Arco’s supplemental market presence by adding high-quality solutions with pricing complementarity to its portfolio. Arco believes in the large potential for English as a Second Language and in the favorable market trends for 21st century skills. An even stronger portfolio better positions Arco to capture this demand outside and within Arco’s school base.
