Huron Consulting Group Inc. (NASDAQ:HURN) is one of the top small cap stocks with huge growth potential. On May 5, Huron Consulting Group Inc. (NASDAQ:HURN) reported its Q1 2026 financial results in which it delivered record revenue before RBR of $443.7 million. The revenue was up 12.1% year over year and exceeded the analyst consensus of $438.2 million. Of that growth, $19.3 million came from acquisitions completed in late 2024.

According to the report, the Healthcare segment carried much of the weight with $225.2 million in income, which the company measures as revenues before reimbursable expenses, or RBR. The RBR growth was possible because of strong client demand for performance improvement, revenue cycle management, financial advisory, and strategy services.

Adjusted EPS reached $1.73, well ahead of the $1.61 analyst consensus and up 3% year over year. The report also noted that adjusted EBITDA rose 21.9% to $50.6 million, which lifted the adjusted EBITDA margin to 11.4% of RBR from 10.5% a year ago. John Kelly, the CFO, said on the earnings call that this improvement came despite a higher effective tax rate. To him, this is evidence that the underlying earnings quality was stronger than the headline growth implies.

Kelly concluded his session of the earnings call by telling investors that management fully reaffirmed the company’s outlook. That means the expected RBR remains in the $1.78-$1.86 billion range, 14.5%-15.0% of RBR for adjusted EBITDA margin, and $8.35-$9.15 for adjusted EPS.
