Dan Rosensweig, CEO & President of Chegg, commented,
They’ve seen incredible growth over the last year and a half, and in the middle of a successful year, they had a solid third quarter, expanding Chegg Services revenue by 23% year over year. Furthermore, it became evident to them in late September that the education business is facing a momentary slowdown, which they believe is a direct outcome of the COVID-19 outbreak. Given these tendencies, their staff maintains a high level of performance. Chegg is in a fantastic position to emerge from this stronger than ever and seize the opportunities that lie ahead.
