1. Nature of Operations

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Adtalem Global Education Inc., together with its subsidiaries, is collectively referred to as “Adtalem,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or similar references.

Our schools consist of Chamberlain University (“Chamberlain”), Walden University (“Walden”), the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (“AUC”), Ross University School of Medicine (“RUSM”), and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (“RUSVM”). AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM is collectively referred to as the “medical and veterinary schools.” See Note 20 “Segment Information” for information on our reportable segments.

Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, ~~Adtalem made a change to its reportable segments to align with current strategic priorities and resource allocation.~~

~~As of December 31, 2021,~~ Adtalem eliminated its Financial Services segment when the Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (“ACAMS”), Becker Professional Education (“Becker”), OnCourse Learning (“OCL”), and EduPristine were classified as discontinued operations and assets held for sale. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we have classified the ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine entities as “Held for Sale” and “Discontinued Operations” in all periods presented as applicable. As a result, all financial results, disclosures, and discussions of continuing operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q exclude ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine operations, unless otherwise noted. On March 10, 2022, we completed the sale of ACAMS, Becker, and OCL and on June 17, 2022, we completed the sale of EduPristine. In addition, we continue to incur costs associated with ongoing litigation and settlements related to the DeVry University divestiture, which was completed during fiscal year 2019, and are classified as expense within discontinued operations. See Note 4 “Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale” ~~for additional information.~~

~~We present 3 reportable segments as follows:~~

~~Chamberlain~~ ~~– Offers degree and non-degree programs in the nursing postsecondary education industry. This segment includes the operations of Chamberlain University (“Chamberlain”).~~

~~Walden~~ – Offers more than 100 online certificate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees, including those in nursing, education, counseling, business, psychology, public health, social work and human services, public administration and public policy, and criminal justice. This segment includes the operations of Walden University (“Walden”), which was acquired by Adtalem on August 12, 2021. Business acquisition and integration costs incurred for this transaction were $9.1 million and $35.6 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively, and $11.1 million and $24.5 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, respectively. See Note 3 “Acquisitions” for additional information on the acquisition.

~~Medical and Veterinary~~ – Offers degree and non-degree programs in the medical and veterinary postsecondary education industry. This segment includes the operations of the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (“AUC”), Ross University School of Medicine (“RUSM”), and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (“RUSVM”), which are collectively referred to as the “medical and veterinary schools.”

~~“Home Office and Other” includes activities not allocated to a reportable segment. See Note 20 “Segment Information”~~ for additional information.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

A full listing of our significant accounting policies is described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 (“~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K”). We have prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with our annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K.

We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Unless otherwise noted, amounts presented within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements refer to our continuing operations.

~~Table of Contents~~

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. Other (expense) income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) consists of interest income of $2.4 million and $4.0 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, interest income of $0.9 million and $1.7 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively, and investment impairment of $5.0 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2022.

Business acquisition and integration expense was $15.9 million and $24.4 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, and $9.1 million and $35.6 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively. These are transaction costs associated with acquiring Walden and costs associated with integrating Walden into Adtalem. In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we initiated transformation initiatives to accelerate growth and organizational agility. Certain costs relating to this transformation are included in business acquisition and integration costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

Table of Contents

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Although our current estimates contemplate current conditions, including, but not limited to, the impact of (i) the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, (ii) rising interest rates, and (iii) labor and material cost increases and shortages, and how we anticipate them to change in the future, as appropriate, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from what was anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition.

On March 11, 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, which recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. COVID-19 and the response of governmental and public health organizations in dealing with the pandemic included restricting general activity levels within communities, the economy, and operations of our customers. While we have experienced an impact to our business, operations, and financial results as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, it may have even more far-reaching impacts on many aspects of our operations including the impact on customer behaviors, business operations, our employees, and the market in general. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity may differ from management’s current estimates due to inherent uncertainties regarding the duration and further spread of COVID-19, actions taken to contain the virus, the efficacy and distribution of the vaccines, as well as, how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.

Recent Accounting Standards

Recently adopted accounting standards

In ~~December 2019,~~October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12: “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The guidance was issued as part of FASB’s overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. Amendments include removal of certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” and simplification in several other areas. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this guidance on July 1, 2021 and it did not have a material impact on Adtalem’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted~~

~~In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU~~ No. 2021-08: “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The amendments require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. An entity that early adopts in an interim period should apply the amendments (1) retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application and (2) prospectively to all business combinations that occur on or after the date of initial application. We ~~do not expect to early adopt these amendments during fiscal year~~adopted this guidance on July 1, 2022 and ~~therefore,~~will apply the guidance to any future business combinations.

Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02: “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” The guidance was issued as improvements to ASU No. 2016-13. The vintage disclosure changes are relevant to Adtalem and require an entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Management expects to implement this guidance effective July 1, 2023. The amendments will impact our disclosures but will not otherwise impact Adtalem’s Consolidated Financial ~~Statements would not be impacted during fiscal year 2022. Management is evaluating if we will early adopt the amendments during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023.~~Statements.

We reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our ~~consolidated financial statements.~~Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. Acquisitions

Walden University

On August 12, 2021, Adtalem completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity ~~interests~~interest of Walden for $1,488.1 million, net of cash and restricted cash of $83.4 million. Adtalem funded the purchase with the ~~$800~~$800.0 million in Notes (as defined in Note 13 “Debt”), the ~~$850~~$850.0 million Term Loan B (as defined in Note 13 “Debt”), and available cash on hand. Walden offers more than 100 online certificate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees. The acquisition furthers Adtalem’s growth strategy ~~into becoming~~as a national leader in post-secondary education and leading ~~workforce solutions provider.~~provider of professional talent to the healthcare industry.

The operations of Walden are included in Adtalem’s Walden reportable segment (see Note 20 “Segment Information”). The results of Walden’s operations have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements of Adtalem since the date of acquisition, which included revenue of $140.6 million and $209.2 million and net loss of $1.8 million and $10.5 million from the operations of Walden for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively. In addition, we incurred acquisition-related costs of $22.3 million in the six months ended December 31, 2021, ~~and $5.8 million and $14.4 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, respectively,~~ which were included in business acquisition and integration expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based upon preliminary valuations performed to determine the fair values of the acquired items as of the acquisition date. As these valuations, particularly as they relate to intangible assets, were preliminary, they may be adjusted for up to one year after the closing date to reflect final valuations.

~~The~~ following table summarizes the ~~preliminary~~ fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (in thousands):


	August 12,		August 12,
	2021		2021
Assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	65,010	$	65,010
Restricted cash		18,389		18,389

Operating lease assets		6,096		6,096
Deferred income taxes				59
Intangible assets		833,351		833,351
Goodwill		649,848		651,052
Other assets, net		21,316		21,316
Total assets acquired		1,650,802		1,652,065
Liabilities assumed:
Accounts payable		31,971		31,971
Accrued payroll and benefits		24,376		25,639
Accrued liabilities		1,620		1,620
Deferred revenue		10,958		10,958
Current operating lease liabilities		1,983		1,983
Long-term operating lease liabilities		4,343		4,343
Other liabilities		4,098		4,098
Total liabilities assumed		79,349		80,612
Net assets acquired	$	1,571,453	$	1,571,453

The fair value of the assets acquired includes accounts receivable of $22.1 million. The gross amount due under contracts is $37.9 million, of which $15.8 million was expected to be uncollectible.

Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired, was all assigned to the Walden reporting unit and reportable segment. The amounts in the table above changed from that reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 after an adjustment to purchase accounting and due to a working capital purchase price adjustment. The entire goodwill amount is ~~expected~~tax deductible.

Factors that contributed to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of goodwill includes Walden’s strategic fit into Adtalem’s workforce solutions provider strategy, the reputation of the Walden brand as a leader in online education industry, and potential future growth opportunity. Of the $833.4 million of acquired intangible assets, $495.8 million was assigned to Title IV eligibility and accreditations and $119.6 million was assigned to trade names, each of which has been determined not to be subject to amortization. The ~~preliminary~~ values and estimated useful lives of other intangible assets acquired are as follows (in thousands):


	August 12, 2021
	Value		Estimated
	Assigned		Useful Life
Student relationships	$	161,900	3 years
Curriculum	$	56,091	5 years

The Title IV eligibility and accreditations intangible asset was valued using the with and without method of the income approach. The student relationships intangible asset was valued using the multi-period excess earnings method. The trade name intangible asset was valued using the relief-from-royalty method. The curriculum intangible asset was valued using the cost to replace method. Significant judgments and assumptions were used in these valuations. We applied judgment which involved the use of significant assumptions with respect to the discount rate and recovery period for the Title IV eligibility and accreditations intangible asset and royalty rate and discount rate for the trade name intangible asset. We also applied judgment which involved the use of assumptions, including the discount rate and EBITDA margin for the student relationships intangible asset and labor rates and hours and obsolescence rate for the curriculum intangible asset.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information summarizes our results of operations as though the acquisition occurred on July 1, 2020 (in thousands):

The unaudited pro forma financial information includes adjustments to reflect the additional amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to intangible assets had been applied from July 1, 2020, with the consequential tax effects. The unaudited pro forma financial information also includes adjustments to reflect the additional interest expense on the debt we issued to fund the acquisition (see Note 13 “Debt” for additional information). As the ticking fees are representative of the historical interest expense incurred by Adtalem on the Term Loan B from the period of February 12, 2021 to August 12, 2021 and the unaudited pro forma financial information for ~~the three and six months ended December 31, 2020~~fiscal year 2021 has been adjusted to include interest expense assuming the Term Loan B had been entered into as of July 1, 2020, we have made a further adjustment to remove the ticking fees recognized in the unaudited pro forma financial information for the six months ended December 31, 2021 (see Note 13 “Debt” for additional information on ticking fees). Had the Term Loan B been drawn upon on July 1, 2020, none of the ticking fees would have been incurred and, accordingly, the inclusion of such amounts would be duplicative to the interest expense incurred by Adtalem on a pro forma basis. The acquisition transaction costs we incurred in connection with the Walden acquisition are reflected in the unaudited pro forma financial information results for ~~the six months ended December 31, 2020.~~fiscal year 2021.

This unaudited pro forma financial information is for informational purposes only. It does not reflect the integration of the business or any synergies that may result from the acquisition. As such, it is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated on July 1, 2020. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information amounts are not indicative of future operating results.

4. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale

On December 11, 2018, Adtalem completed the sale of DeVry University to Cogswell Education, LLC (“Cogswell”) for de minimis consideration. As the sale represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on Adtalem’s operations and financial results, DeVry University is presented in Adtalem’s ~~financial reporting~~Consolidated Financial Statements as a discontinued operation. The purchase agreement includes an earn-out entitling Adtalem to payments of up to ~~$20~~$20.0 million over a ten-year period payable based on DeVry University’s free cash flow. Adtalem received $4.1 million and $2.9 million during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 and the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, respectively, related to the earn-out, which was recorded within discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021. In connection with the closing of the sale, Adtalem loaned to DeVry

resulting in a total of $7.0 million being received thus far. In connection with the closing of the sale, Adtalem loaned to DeVry University $10.0 million under the terms of the promissory note, dated as of December 11, 2018 (the “ DeVry Note”). The DeVry Note ~~bears~~bore interest at a rate of 4% per annum, payable annually in arrears, and had a maturity date of January 1, 2022. ~~Based on~~We received the ~~terms~~loan repayment of $10.0 million during the ~~DeVry Note, DeVry University may make prepayments and may be required to make prepayments on the DeVry Note.~~third quarter of fiscal year 2022. The DeVry Note is included on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets in prepaid expenses and other current assets as of ~~each of~~ December 31, ~~2021 and June 30, 2021, and other assets, net as of December 31, 2020.~~2021. Adtalem has retained certain leases associated with DeVry University operations. Adtalem remains the primary lessee on these leases and subleases to DeVry University. In addition, Adtalem owns the buildings for certain DeVry University operating and administrative office locations and leases space to DeVry University under one-year operating leases, renewable annually at DeVry University’s option with the exception of 1one lease which expires in December 2023. Adtalem records the proceeds from these leases and subleases as an offset to operating costs. Adtalem also assigned certain leases to DeVry University but remains contingently liable under these leases.

On ~~January 24,~~March 10, 2022, Adtalem ~~entered into an~~completed the sale of ACAMS, Becker, and OCL to Wendel Group and Colibri Group (“Purchaser”), pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) ~~with Wendel Group and Colibri Group (“Purchaser”).~~dated January 24, 2022. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, Adtalem ~~will sell all of~~sold the issued and outstanding shares of ACAMS, Becker, and OCL to the Purchaser for ~~$1 billion. This transaction is expected~~$962.7 million, net of cash of $21.5 million, subject to becertain post-closing adjustments. In addition, on June 17, 2022, Adtalem completed the sale of EduPristine for de minimis consideration, which resulted in a transfer of $1.9 million in cash. We recorded a gain of $0.2 million and a loss of $3.2 million in the ~~third quarter~~three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, for post-closing working capital adjustments to the initial sales price for ACAMS, Becker, and OCL, which is included in gain (loss) on disposal of ~~fiscal year 2022. This sale is~~discontinued operations before income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). These divestitures are the culmination of a long-term strategy to sharpen the focus of our portfolio and enhance our ability to address the rapidly growing and unmet demand for healthcare ~~professions~~professionals in the U.S. ~~In addition, Adtalem is in the process of selling EduPristine.~~ As ~~the potential sale of ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine represents~~these sales represented a strategic shift that ~~will have~~had a major effect on Adtalem’s operations and financial results, these businesses previously included in our former Financial Services segment are presented in Adtalem’s ~~financial reporting~~Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations. ~~All prior~~In accordance with GAAP, we have classified ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine entities as “Held for Sale” and “Discontinued Operations” in all periods presented ~~disclose Financial Services assets and liabilities~~ as ~~held for sale, and operations and cash flows of Financial Services as discontinued operations.~~applicable.

Performance Obligations and Revenue Recognition

Tuition and fees: The majority of revenue is derived from tuition and fees, which is recognized on a straight-line basis over the academic term as instruction is delivered.

~~Fees and educational products~~: Fees and educational products revenue consist of fees, books, and other educational products. Fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term as instruction is delivered. Books and other educational product revenue are recognized when products are shipped or students receive access to electronic materials. Under certain circumstances, we report revenue from these books and other educational products on a net basis because our performance obligation is to facilitate a transaction between the student and a vendor, which revenue was not significant for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Other: Other revenue consists of housing and other miscellaneous services. Other revenue is recognized over the period in which the applicable performance obligation is satisfied.

Arrangements for payment are agreed to prior to registration of the student’s first academic term. The majority of U.S. students obtain Title IV or other financial aid resulting in institutions receiving a significant amount of the transaction price at the beginning of the academic term. Students not utilizing ~~private~~Title IV or other financial aid funding ~~or funding through Adtalem’s credit extension programs (see Note 9 “Accounts Receivable and Credit Losses” for additional information) generally~~may pay after the academic term is complete.

Transaction Price

Revenue, or transaction price, is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods or services.

Students may receive discounts, scholarships, or refunds, which gives rise to variable consideration. The amounts of discounts or scholarships are applied to individual student accounts when such amounts are awarded. Therefore, the transaction price is reduced directly by these discounts or scholarships from the amount of the standard tuition rate charged. Upon withdrawal, a student may be eligible to receive a refund, or partial refund, the amount of which is dependent on the timing of the withdrawal during the academic term. If a student withdraws prior to completing an academic term, federal and state regulations and accreditation criteria permit Adtalem to retain only a set percentage of the total tuition received from such student, which varies with, but generally equals or exceeds, the percentage of the academic term completed by such student. Payment amounts received by Adtalem in excess of such set percentages of tuition are refunded to the student or the appropriate funding source. For contracts with similar characteristics and historical data on refunds, the expected value method is applied in determining the variable consideration related to refunds. Estimates of Adtalem’s expected refunds are determined at the outset of each academic term, based upon actual refunds in previous academic terms. Reserves related to refunds are presented as refund liabilities within accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. All refunds are netted against revenue during the applicable academic term.

Management reassesses collectability on a student-by-student basis throughout the period revenue is recognized. This reassessment is based upon new information and changes in facts and circumstances relevant to a student’s ability to pay. Management also reassesses collectability when a student withdraws from the institution and has unpaid tuition charges. Such unpaid charges do not meet the threshold of reasonably collectible and are recognized as revenue on a cash basis.

~~Table of Contents~~

We believe it is probable that no significant reversal will occur in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Therefore, the estimate of variable consideration is not constrained.

Contract Balances

Students are billed at the beginning of each academic term and payment is due at that time. Adtalem’s performance obligation is to provide educational services in the form of instruction during the academic term. As instruction is provided, deferred revenue is reduced. A significant portion of student payments are from Title IV financial aid and other programs and are generally received during the first month of the respective academic term. For students utilizing Adtalem’s credit extension programs (see Note 9 “Accounts Receivable and Credit Losses”), payments are generally received after the academic term, and the corresponding performance obligation, is complete. When payments are received, accounts receivable is reduced.

Revenue of ~~$68.8~~$0.7 million and $141.4 million was recognized during the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2023, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of fiscal year 2023. No revenue was recognized during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 and $68.8 million of revenue was recognized in the first

Table of Contents

six months of fiscal year 2022, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of fiscal year 2022. Revenue recognized from performance obligations that were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods was not material.

The difference between the opening and closing balances of deferred revenue includes decreases from revenue recognized during the period, increases from charges related to the start of academic terms beginning during the period, and increases from payments received related to academic terms commencing after the end of the reporting ~~period, increases from payments from customers in advance~~period. In addition, for fiscal year 2022, the difference between the opening and closing balances of ~~Adtalem performing its applicable performance obligation, and increases~~deferred revenue included an increase from the Walden acquisition.

Practical Expedients

As our performance obligations have an original expected duration of one year or less, we have applied the practical expedient (as provided in ASC 606-10-50-14) to not disclose the information in ASC 606-10-50-13, which requires disclosure of the amount of the transaction price allocated to our performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of the end of the reporting period and when the entity expects to recognize this amount as revenue. All consideration from contracts with customers is included in the transaction price.

~~6. Restructuring Charges~~

During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022, Adtalem recorded restructuring charges primarily related to workforce reductions related to synergy actions with regard to the Walden acquisition and Adtalem’s home office real estate consolidations. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2021, Adtalem recorded restructuring charges primarily related to Adtalem’s home office real estate consolidations. When estimating costs of exiting lease space, estimates are made which could differ materially from actual results and result in additional restructuring charges or reversals in future periods. Termination benefit charges represented severance pay and benefits for these employees. Adtalem’s home office is classified as “Home Office and Other” in Note 20 “Segment Information.” Pre-tax restructuring charges by segment were as follows (in thousands):

6. Restructuring Charges

During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2023, Adtalem recorded restructuring charges primarily driven by real estate consolidations at Walden, Medical and Veterinary, and Adtalem’s home office resulting in impairments on operating lease assets and property and equipment. During the second quarter and first six months ended of fiscal year 2022, Adtalem recorded restructuring charges primarily driven by workforce reductions and contract terminations related to synergy actions with regards to the Walden acquisition and Adtalem’s home office real estate consolidations. When estimating costs of exiting lease space, estimates are made which could differ materially from actual results and may result in additional restructuring charges or reversals in future periods. Termination benefit charges represent severance pay and benefits for employees impacted by workforce reductions. Adtalem’s home office is classified as “Home Office and Other” in Note 20 “Segment Information.” Pre-tax restructuring charges by segment were as follows (in thousands):

7. Income Taxes

Our income tax provisions from continuing operations were $4.2 million and $5.3 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, and our income tax benefits from continuing operations were $39.4 million and $30.8 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, ~~respectively, and our income tax expenses from continuing operations were $3.6 million and $7.8 million in the~~respectively. The three and six months ended December 31, ~~2020, respectively. The~~2022 resulted in income tax provisions compared to income tax benefits in ~~fiscal year 2022 and~~ the year-ago periods primarily due to the impacts recognized in the year-ago periods related to the Walden acquisition. The income tax expenses ~~in fiscal year 2021~~ reflect the U.S. federal tax rate of 21% adjusted for taxes related to global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), state and local taxes, benefits of the foreign rate differences, and benefits associated with local tax incentives, changes in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and tax benefits on stock-based compensation awards. The increase in the fiscal year 2022 income tax provision benefit is the result of the losses incurred for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, and a catch-up tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 due to the change in the full year effective tax rate after reflecting discontinued operations treatment for the Financial Services segment.incentives.

~~NaN~~Three of Adtalem’s ~~operating units~~businesses benefit from local tax incentives: AUC, which operates in St. Maarten, RUSM, which operates in Barbados, and RUSVM, which operates in St. Kitts. AUC’s effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from investment incentives. RUSM and RUSVM each have agreements with their respective domestic governments that exempt them from local income taxation. RUSM has an exemption in Barbados until 2039. RUSVM has an exemption in St. Kitts until 2037.

On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (the “Appropriations Act”) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Appropriations Act, among other things, temporarily extends through December 31, 2025, certain expiring tax provisions, including look-through treatment of payments of dividends, interest, rents, and royalties received or accrued from related controlled foreign corporations. Additionally, the Appropriations Act enacted new provisions and extended certain provisions originated within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act,”) enacted on March 27, 2020, including an extension of time for repayment of the deferred portion of employees’ payroll tax through December 31, 2021, and a temporary allowance for full deduction of certain business meals. Adtalem elected not to defer the employees’ portion of payroll tax. Management does not expect that the other provisions of the Appropriations Act would result in a material tax or cash benefit.

On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the “Rescue Act”) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Rescue Act, among other things, expands the number of employees subject to the tax deductibility limitation of employee compensation in excess of $1 million for tax years beginning after December 31, 2026 and repeals the election for U.S. affiliated groups to allocate interest expense on a worldwide basis. Management does not expect that the other provisions of the Rescue Act would result in a material tax or cash detriment.

8. Earnings per Share

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share and stock awards not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is antidilutive (in thousands, except per share data). As a result of incurring a net loss from continuing operations for the six months ended December 31, 2021, potential common ~~shares~~stock of 447 thousand shares were excluded from diluted loss per share because the effect would have been antidilutive. As further described in Note 15 “Share Repurchases,” on March 14, 2022, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement to repurchase $150.0 million of common stock. For purposes of calculating earnings per share for the periods presented, Adtalem reflected the ASR agreement as a repurchase of Adtalem common stock and as a forward contract indexed to its own common stock. Based on the volume-weighted average price of Adtalem’s common stock per the terms of the ASR agreement, common stock of 153 thousand shares were contingently issuable by Adtalem under the ASR agreement and were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the six months ended December 31, 2022 because the effect would have been dilutive. As of December 31, 2022 no shares were contingently issuable under the ASR agreement. Certain shares related to stock awards were excluded from the computation of earnings per share because the effect would have been antidilutive. The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share and antidilutive shares (in thousands, except per share data):

9. Accounts Receivable and Credit Losses

We categorize our accounts receivable balances as trade receivables or financing receivables. Our trade receivables relate to student balances occurring in the normal course of business. Trade receivables have a term of less than one year and are included in accounts receivable, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our financing receivables relate to credit extension programs where the student is provided payment terms in excess of one year with their respective school and are included in accounts receivable, net and other assets, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Our financing receivables relate to credit extension programs available to students at Chamberlain, AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM. These credit extension programs are designed to assist students who are unable to completely cover educational costs consisting of tuition, ~~books,~~fees, and ~~fees,~~books, and are available only after all other student financial assistance has been applied toward those purposes. In addition, AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM allow students to finance their living expenses. Repayment plans for financing agreements are developed to address the financial circumstances of the particular student. Interest charges at rates from 3.0% to 12.0% per annum accrue each month on the unpaid balance once a student withdraws or graduates from a program. Most students are required to begin repaying their loans while they are still in school with a minimum payment level designed to demonstrate their capability to repay, which reduces the possibility of over borrowing. Payments may increase upon completing or departing school. After a student leaves school, the student typically will have a monthly installment repayment plan.

Credit Quality

The primary credit quality indicator for our financing receivables is delinquency. Balances are considered delinquent when contractual payments on the loan become past due. We ~~charge-off~~write-off financing receivable balances after they have been sent to a third party collector, the timing of which varies by the institution granting the loan, but in most cases is when the financing agreement is at least 181 days past due. Payments are applied first to outstanding interest and then to the unpaid principal balance.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses represents an estimate of the lifetime expected credit losses inherent in our accounts receivable balances as of each balance sheet date. In evaluating the collectability of all our accounts receivable balances, we utilize historical events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future.

For our trade receivables, we primarily use historical loss rates based on an aging schedule and a student’s status to determine the allowance for credit losses. As these trade receivables are short-term in nature, management believes a student’s status provides the best credit loss estimate, while also factoring in delinquency. Students still attending classes, recently graduated, or current on payments are more likely to pay than those who are inactive due to being on a leave of absence, withdrawing from school, or not current on payments.

Table of Contents

For our financing receivables, we primarily use historical loss rates based on an aging schedule. As these financing receivables are based on long-term financing agreements offered by Adtalem, management believes that delinquency provides the best credit loss estimate. As the financing receivable balances become further past due, it is less likely we will receive payment, causing our estimate of credit losses to increase.

The following tables provide a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses (in thousands):

On July 31, 2019, Adtalem sold its Chicago, Illinois, campus facility to DePaul College Prep for $52.0 million. Adtalem received $5.2 million of cash at the time of closing and holds a mortgage, secured by the property, from DePaul College Prep for $46.8 million. The mortgage is due on July 31, 2024 as a balloon payment and bears interest at a rate of 4% per annum, payable monthly. The buyer has an option to make prepayments. Due to Adtalem’s involvement with financing the sale, the transaction did not qualify as a sale for accounting purposes. Adtalem continues to maintain the assets associated with the sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recorded a note receivable of $40.3 million and a financing payable of $45.5 million at the time of the sale, which were classified as other assets, net and other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet.~~Sheets. See Note 9 “Accounts Receivable and Credit Losses” for a discussion on the discounting of the note receivable.

11. Leases

We determine if a contract contains a lease at inception. We have entered into operating leases for academic sites, housing facilities, and office space which expire at various dates through ~~June 2032,~~December 2034, most of which include options to terminate for a fee or extend the leases for an additional five-year period. The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease, as well as any periods for which we are reasonably certain to exercise extension options. We elected to account for lease and non-lease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs) as a single lease component for all operating leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the ~~balance sheet.~~Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have not entered into any financing leases.

Operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset during the lease term. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. Operating lease assets are adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, lease incentives, initial direct costs, and impairments. Our incremental borrowing rate is utilized in determining the present value of the lease payments based upon the information available at the commencement date. Our incremental borrowing rate is determined using a secured borrowing rate for the same currency and term as the associated lease. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we entered into 1two additional ~~lease~~operating leases that ~~has~~have not yet commenced. One lease is expected to commence during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, has a 10-year lease term, and will result in an additional operating lease asset and operating lease liability of approximately $5.3 million. The second lease is expected to commence during the second quarter of fiscal year ~~2023,~~2024, has a 12-year lease term, and will result in an additional operating lease asset and operating lease liability of approximately ~~$18.9~~$16.6 million.

Adtalem maintains agreements to lease either a portion or the full space of 3two facilities owned by Adtalem to DeVry University with various expiration dates through December 2023. Adtalem maintains agreements to sublease either a portion or the full leased space at 1110 of its operating lease locations. Most of these subleases are a result of Adtalem retaining leases associated with restructured lease activities at DeVry University and Carrington College prior to their divestitures during fiscal year 2019. All sublease expirations with DeVry University and Carrington College coincide with Adtalem’s original head lease expiration dates. At that time, Adtalem will be relieved of its obligations. In addition, Adtalem has entered into subleases with non-affiliated entities for vacated or partially vacated space from restructuring activities. Adtalem’s sublease agreements expire at various dates through December 2025. We record sublease income as an offset against our lease expense recorded on the head lease. For leases which Adtalem vacated or partially vacated space, we recorded estimated restructuring charges in prior periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates, which

Curriculum is amortized on a straight-line basis. Student relationships is amortized based on the estimated retention of the students and giving consideration to the revenue and cash flow associated with these existing students.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets related to trade names and Title IV eligibility and accreditations are not amortized, as there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, economic or other factors that limit the useful life of these intangible assets to the reporting entity.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually and when an event occurs or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment may exist. Our annual testing date is May 31.

Adtalem has 4four reporting units that ~~contained goodwill as of the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.~~contain goodwill. These reporting units constitute components for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by segment ~~management and the Board of Directors (the “Board”).~~management. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit containing the goodwill exceeds the fair value of that reporting unit, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent the fair value of the reporting unit goodwill is less than the carrying amount of the goodwill, up to the amount of goodwill recorded. In analyzing the results of operations and business conditions of all 4four reporting units, ~~as of December 31, 2021,~~ it was determined that no triggering event had occurred that would indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit had exceeded its fair ~~value.~~value as of December 31, 2022.

Table of Contents

Adtalem has 4four reporting units that ~~contained~~contain indefinite-lived intangible ~~assets as of the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.~~assets. For indefinite-lived intangible assets, management first analyzes qualitative factors, including results of operations and business conditions of the 4four reporting units that ~~contained~~contain indefinite-lived intangible assets, significant changes in cash flows at the individual indefinite-lived intangible asset level, if applicable, as well as how much previously calculated fair values exceed carrying values to determine if it is more likely than not that the intangible assets associated with these reporting units have been impaired. In qualitatively assessing the indefinite-lived intangible assets of the 4four reporting units, it was determined that it was more likely than not that these assets’ fair values exceeded their carrying values as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

These interim triggering event conclusions were based on the fact that the annual impairment review of Adtalem’s reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets resulted in 0no impairments as of the end of fiscal year ~~2021,~~2022, and that no interim events or deviations from planned operating results occurred as of December 31, ~~2021~~2022 that would cause management to reassess these conclusions. The recent increase in interest rates has not resulted in a significant enough change to the discount rate used to value Adtalem’s reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets that would result in a triggering event based on how much previously calculated fair values exceed carrying values. We have not yet experienced significant inflationary pressures on wages or other costs of delivering our educational services, so no significant decreases in long-term cash flow projections are anticipated based on these factors. Should inflation persist in the overall economy, cost increases could affect our projections in the future to the point where a triggering event would exist and require reassessment of the fair values of goodwill and intangible assets and potential impairments. Although the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have a negative effect on the operating results of all 4four reporting units that contain goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, at this time none of the effects are considered significant enough to create a triggering event. The effects are currently projected to be short-term and would not significantly decrease long-term cash flow projections; however, should economic conditions continue to deteriorate, the revenue and operating results could also deteriorate to the point where a triggering event would exist and require reassessment of the fair values of goodwill and intangible assets and potential impairments.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit or an intangible asset involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates, which could lead to future impairments of goodwill or intangible assets.

Senior Secured Notes due 2028

On March 1, 2021, Adtalem Escrow Corporation (the “Escrow Issuer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adtalem, issued ~~$800~~$800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”), which mature on March 1, 2028, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 1, 2021 (the “Indenture”), by and between the Escrow Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and notes collateral agent. The Notes were sold within the U.S. only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the U.S. to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The Escrow Issuer deposited the net proceeds of the offering, along with certain additional funds, into a segregated depositary account (the “Escrow Account”). On August 12, 2021, Adtalem used the net proceeds of the offering, along with other financing sources, to finance the purchase price paid in connection with the Walden acquisition, repay the then existing $291.0 million senior secured term loan B, and to pay related acquisition fees and expenses.

On August 12, 2021, the Escrow Issuer merged with and into Adtalem, with Adtalem continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Escrow Merger”), and Adtalem assumed all of the Escrow Issuer's obligations under the Notes, the Indenture, any supplemental indentures thereto, the applicable collateral documents, and the other applicable documents (the “Assumption”) and subject to the satisfaction of certain other conditions, the net proceeds from the offering and the other additional funds were released from the Escrow Account to the Issuer or its designee. The term “Issuer” refers (a) prior to the Assumption, to the Escrow Issuer and (b) from and after the Assumption, to Adtalem.

The Notes were issued at 100.0% of their par value. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2021, to holders of record on the preceding February 15 and August 15, as the case may be. The Notes were initially the senior secured obligations of the Escrow Issuer, secured only by the amounts deposited in the Escrow Account. As of August 12, 2021, the Notes are

~~Table of Contents~~

guaranteed by certain of Adtalem’s subsidiaries that are borrowers or guarantors under its senior secured credit facilities and certain of its other senior indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions (the “Guarantors”). As of August 12, 2021, the Notes are secured, subject to permitted liens and certain other exceptions, by first priority liens on the same collateral that secures the obligations under Adtalem’s senior secured credit facilities.

At any time prior to March 1, 2024, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus a make-whole premium set forth in the Indenture and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March 1, 2024 at redemption prices equal to 102.75%, 101.375% and 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed if the redemption occurs during the twelve-month periods beginning on March 1 of the years 2024, 2025, and 2026 and thereafter, respectively, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to March 1, 2024, the Issuer may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 105.5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds the Issuer receives from one or more qualifying equity offerings.

On April 11, 2022, we repaid $373.3 million of Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes. During June 2022, we repurchased on the open market an additional $20.8 million of Notes at a price equal to

Table of Contents

approximately 90% of the principal amount of the Notes. This debt was subsequently retired. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we repurchased on the open market an additional $0.9 million of Notes at a price equal to approximately 92% of the principal amount of the Notes, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million recorded within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the six months ended December 31, 2022. This debt was subsequently retired.

Accrued interest on the Notes of $7.4 million, $7.4 million, and $14.7 million is recorded within accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets as ~~of each~~ of December 31, ~~2021~~2022, June 30, 2022, and ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2021, respectively.

Credit ~~Facility~~Agreement

On February 12, 2021, Adtalem placed ~~a $850~~an $850.0 million senior secured term loan (“Term Loan B”) into the loan market to provide future funding for the Walden acquisition. For 30 days beginning on March 15, 2021, Adtalem began accruing ticking fees at 50% of the applicable 4.5% margin. Beginning on April 14, 2021 and until the closing date of the Term Loan B, Adtalem accrued ticking fees at a rate equal to LIBOR plus a 4.5% margin, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. ~~Accrued ticking fees of $11.3 million is recorded within accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021.~~ All ticking fees were paid at the time of the Term Loan B closing date, on August 12, 2021, and are recorded within interest expense as accrued in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

On August 12, 2021, Adtalem replaced the Prior Credit ~~Facility and Prior Credit~~ Agreement (as defined below) by entering into its new credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for (1) a ~~$850~~$850.0 million senior secured term loan with a maturity date of August 12, 2028 and (2) a ~~$400~~$400.0 million senior secured revolving loan facility (“Revolver”) with a maturity date of August 12, 2026. We refer to the Term Loan B and Revolver collectively as the “Credit Facility.” The Revolver has availability for letters of credit and currencies other than U.S. dollars of up to ~~$400~~$400.0 million.

Term Loan B

Borrowings under the Term Loan B bear interest at Adtalem’s option at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 4.00% to 4.50% for eurocurrency term loan borrowings or 3.00% to 3.50% for alternative base rate (“ABR”) borrowings depending on Adtalem’s net first lien leverage ratio for such period. ~~The Term Loan B requires quarterly installment payments of $2.125 million beginning on March 31, 2022.~~ As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan B facility was ~~5.25%~~8.39%, which approximated the effective interest rate. The proceeds of the ~~Credit Facility~~Term Loan B were used, among other things, to finance the Walden acquisition, refinance Adtalem’s Prior Credit Agreement (as defined below), and pay fees and expenses related to the Walden ~~acquisition,~~acquisition. The Term Loan B originally required quarterly installment payments of $2.125 million beginning on March 31, 2022. On March 11, 2022, we made a prepayment of $396.7 million on the Term Loan B. With that prepayment, we are no longer required to make quarterly installment payments. We made additional Term Loan B prepayments of $100.0 million and ~~in the case of the Revolver, to finance ongoing working capital~~$50.0 million on September 22, 2022 and ~~for general corporate purposes.~~November 22, 2022, respectively.

Interest on our Term Loan B and the Revolver is set based on LIBOR, which is based on observable market transactions. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced that no new contracts referencing LIBOR are allowed. In addition, publication of one-week and two-month LIBOR rates ceased on December 31, 2021; however, all other LIBOR tenors will be published through June 30, 2023. ~~Various parties, including government agencies, are seeking to identify an alternative rate to replace LIBOR. Management is monitoring their efforts.~~ The Credit Agreement provides guidance surrounding the implementation of a replacement benchmark rate, however the specific replacement benchmark rate has not been identified. We expect to amend the Credit Agreement during fiscal year 2023 to transition from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).

~~Table of Contents~~

Revolver

Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.75% to 4.25% for LIBOR borrowings or 2.75% to 3.25% for ABR borrowings depending on Adtalem’s net first lien leverage ratio for such period.

Adtalem had a letter of credit outstanding of $84.0 million as of December 31, 2021, which was assumed by Adtalem on August 12, 2021 after acquiring Walden, in favor of the U.S. Department of Education, which allows Walden to participate in Title IV programs. As of December 31, 2021, Adtalem is charged an annual fee equal to 4.25% and a 0.125% fronting fee, of the undrawn face amount of the outstanding letter of credit under the Revolver, payable quarterly. The Credit Agreement ~~also~~ requires payment of a commitment fee equal to 0.25% as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, of the undrawn portion of the Revolver. The commitment fee expense is recorded within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The amount undrawn under the Revolver ~~which includes the impact of the outstanding letter of credit,~~ was ~~$316.0~~$400.0 million as of December 31, ~~2021. The letter~~2022.

Table of ~~credit fees and commitment fees are adjustable quarterly, based upon Adtalem’s achievement of certain financial ratios.~~Contents

Adtalem had a letter of credit outstanding of $68.4 million as of each of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, which was posted in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 in relation to a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and required the letter of credit to be equal to the greater of 10% of DeVry University’s annual Title IV disbursements or $68.4 million for a five-year period. Adtalem continued to post the letter of credit in relation to the settlement with the FTC on behalf of DeVry University and was reimbursed by DeVry University for 2.00% of the outstanding amount of this letter of credit. This letter of credit expired during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 and is 0 longer outstanding as of December 31, 2021.

Prior Credit Agreement

On April 13, 2018, Adtalem entered into a credit agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) that provided for (1) a ~~$300 million revolving facility (“Prior Revolver”), which was set to mature on April 13, 2023 and (2) a $300~~$300.0 million senior secured term loan (“Prior Term Loan B”), which was set to mature on April 13, ~~2025.~~2025 and (2) a $300.0 million revolving facility (“Prior Revolver”), which was set to mature on April 13, 2023. We refer to the Prior ~~Revolver~~Term Loan B and Prior ~~Term Loan B~~Revolver collectively as the “Prior Credit Facility.”

Prior Term Loan B

For eurocurrency rate loans, Prior Term Loan B interest iswas equal to LIBOR or a LIBOR-equivalent rate plus 3%. For base rate loans, Prior Term Loan B interest iswas equal to the base rate plus 2%. The Prior Term Loan B required quarterly installment payments of $750,000, with the balance due at maturity on April 13, 2025. ~~As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the interest rate for borrowings under the Prior Term Loan B facility was 3.10% and 3.15%, respectively, which approximated the effective interest rate.~~

On March 24, 2020, we executed a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap agreement (the “Swap”) with a multinational financial institution to mitigate risks associated with the variable interest rate on our Prior Term Loan B debt. We paid interest at a fixed rate of 0.946% and received variable interest of one-month LIBOR (subject to a minimum of 0.00%), on a notional amount equal to the amount outstanding under the Prior Term Loan B. The effective date of the Swap was March 31, 2020 and settlements with the counterparty occurred on a monthly basis. The Swap was set to terminate on February 28, 2025.

During the operating term of the Swap, the annual interest rate on the amount of the Prior Term Loan B ~~Loan~~ was fixed at 3.946% (including the impact of ~~our current~~the 3% interest rate margin on LIBOR loans) for the applicable interest rate period.

The Swap was designated as a cash flow hedge and as such, changes in its fair value were recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets and ~~are~~were reclassified into the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) within interest expense in the periods in which the hedged transactions ~~affect~~affected earnings.

On July 29, 2021, prior to refinancing our Credit Agreement (as discussed above), we settled and terminated the Swap for $4.5 million, which resulted in a charge to interest expense in the six months ended December 31, 2021.

Prior Revolver

Prior Revolver interest iswas equal to LIBOR or a LIBOR-equivalent rate for eurocurrency rate loans or a base rate, plus an applicable margin based on Adtalem’s consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the Prior Credit Agreement. The applicable margin ~~ranges~~ranged from 1.75% to 2.75% for eurocurrency rate loans and from 0.75% to 1.75% for base rate loans. ~~There were 0 outstanding borrowings under the Prior Revolver as of each of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.~~

Debt Discount and Issuance Costs

The Term Loan B was issued at a price of 99% of its principal amount, resulting in an original issue discount of 1%. The debt discount and issuance costs related to the Notes and Term Loan B are capitalized and presented as a direct deduction from the face amount of the debt, while the debt issuance costs related to the Revolver are classified as other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The debt discount and issuance costs are amortized as interest expense over seven years for the Notes and Term Loan B and over five years for the Revolver. The remaining $6.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Prior Credit Facility and the $10.3 million of debt issuances costs associated with an unused bridge facility, which was in place should the permanent financing not have been obtained, were expensed in interest expense in the Consolidated ~~Statement~~Statements of ~~Loss~~Income (Loss) in the six months ended December 31, 2021. In addition, based on the $100.0 million and $50.0 million Term Loan B prepayments on September 22, 2022 and November 22, 2022, respectively, we expensed $1.4 million and $4.3 million in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) in the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, which was the proportionate amount of the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs related to the Term Loan B as of the prepayment dates.

Covenants and Guarantees

The Credit Agreement and Notes contain customary covenants, including restrictions on our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to merge and consolidate with other companies, incur indebtedness, grant liens or security interest on assets, make acquisitions, loans, advances or investments, or sell or otherwise transfer assets.

Table of Contents

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, beginning on the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021 and through December 31, 2023, Adtalem is required to maintain a Total Net Leverage Ratio of equal to or less than 4.00 to 1.00, which requirement reduces to 3.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2024 and thereafter. The Total Net Leverage Ratio under the Credit Agreement is defined as the ratio of (a) the aggregate principal amount of Consolidated

~~Table of Contents~~

Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of Adtalem and its subsidiaries as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period (as defined in the Credit Agreement) minus Unrestricted Cash (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and Permitted Investments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries for such Test Period to (b) EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for such Test Period. EBITDA for purposes of these restrictive covenants includes incremental adjustments beyond those included in traditional EBITDA calculations. Specifically, the Credit Agreement EBITDA definition includes the pro forma impact of EBITDA to be received from certain acquisition-related synergies and cost optimization activities, subject to a 20% cap.

Obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the assets of Adtalem and certain of its domestic wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), which Subsidiary Guarantors also guarantee the obligations of Adtalem under the Credit Agreement, subject to certain exceptions. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants customary for facilities of its type, which, among other things, generally limit (with certain exceptions): mergers, amalgamations, or consolidations; the incurrence of additional indebtedness (including guarantees); the incurrence of additional liens; the sale, assignment, lease, conveyance or transfer of assets; certain investments; dividends and stock redemptions or repurchases in excess of certain amounts; transactions with affiliates; engaging in materially different lines of business; payments and modifications of indebtedness or the governing documents of Adtalem or any Subsidiary Guarantor; and other activities customarily restricted in such agreements.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default for facilities of this type. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, the commitments thereunder may be terminated and the principal amount outstanding thereunder, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owed thereunder, may be declared immediately due and payable.

The Term Loan B requires mandatory prepayments equal to the net cash proceeds from an asset sale or disposition which is not reinvested in assets within one-year from the date of disposition if the asset sale or disposition is in excess of ~~$20~~$20.0 million, among other mandatory prepayment terms (see the Credit Agreement, as filed under Form 8-K dated August 12, 2021, for additional information and term definitions). ~~NaN~~With the $396.7 million prepayment on March 11, 2022 on the Term Loan B, the $394.1 million prepayment on the Notes during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, and the $100.0 million prepayment on September 22, 2022 on the Term Loan B, we satisfied the mandatory prepayment requirement resulting from the sale proceeds received from the sale of the Financial Services segment. No other mandatory prepayments have been required ~~or made~~ since the execution of the Credit Agreement.

The Notes contain covenants that limit the ability of the Issuer and each of the Guarantors to incur or guarantee additional debt or issue disqualified stock or preferred stock; pay dividends and make other distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock; make certain investments; incur certain liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; create certain restrictions on the Guarantors to make dividends or other payments to Adtalem; designate restricted subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; and transfer or sell certain assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. The Indenture and the Notes also provide for certain customary events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes to become or be declared due and payable or would allow the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes to declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Issuer and, upon such declaration, such principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be due and payable immediately.

Adtalem was in compliance with the debt covenants related to the Credit Agreement and the Notes covenants as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

14. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

Prior to the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, Adtalem ~~maintains~~maintained a ~~71%~~69% ownership interest in EduPristine with the remaining ~~29%~~31% owned by Kaizen Management Advisors (“Kaizen”), an India-based private equity ~~firm, as of December 31, 2021.~~firm. Beginning on March 26, 2020, Adtalem ~~has~~ had the right to exercise a call option and purchase any remaining EduPristine stock from Kaizen. Likewise, Kaizen ~~has~~ had the right to exercise a put option and sell up to 33% of its remaining ownership interest in EduPristine to Adtalem. Beginning on March 26, 2022, Kaizen ~~will have~~had the right to exercise a put option and sell its remaining ownership interest in EduPristine to Adtalem.

~~Table~~ During the third quarter of ~~Contents~~fiscal year 2022, Adtalem purchased the remaining ownership interest in EduPristine from Kaizen for $1.8 million, resulting in Adtalem owning 100% of EduPristine. Subsequently, Adtalem sold EduPristine in its entirety on June 17, 2022 (see Note 4 “Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale” for additional information).

Since the put option was out of the control of Adtalem, authoritative guidance required the redeemable noncontrolling interest, which included the value of the put option, to be displayed outside of the equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The estimated fair value of Kaizen’s noncontrolling interest is $1.8 million as of December 31, 2021. The adjustment to increase or decrease the put option to its expected redemption value each reporting period was recorded in retained earnings in accordance with GAAP.

15. Share Repurchases

On February 4, 2020, we announced that the Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized Adtalem’s twelfth share repurchase program, which allowed Adtalem to repurchase up to ~~$300~~$300.0 million of its common stock through December 31, 2021.

Repurchases under our share repurchase programs were suspended on March 12, 2020 due to the economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In November 2020, Adtalem resumed repurchases under its share repurchase programs. We did 0tnot make any share repurchases during the three orand six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. ~~The twelfth~~As of December 31, 2022, $300.0 million of authorized share repurchases were remaining under the current share repurchase ~~program expired~~program.

These repurchases may be made through the open market, including block purchases, in private negotiated transactions, or otherwise. Repurchases will be funded through available cash balances and/or borrowings and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Shares of stock repurchased under the programs are held as treasury shares. ~~These repurchased~~Repurchases under our share repurchase programs reduce the weighted-average number of shares ~~have~~of common stock outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

ASR Agreement

On March 14, 2022, we entered into an ASR agreement to repurchase $150.0 million of common stock. We received an initial delivery of 4,709,576shares of common stock representing approximately 80% of the total shares expected to be delivered at the time of executing the ASR based on the per share price on the day prior to the execution date. This initial delivery of shares reduced the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. The final number of shares to be repurchased was based on the volume-weighted average price of Adtalem’s common stock during the term of the ASR agreement, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms of the ASR agreement. See Note 8 “Earnings per Share” for information on the ASR impact to earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The ASR agreement ended on October 14, 2022. Based on the volume-weighted average price of Adtalem’s common stock during the term of the ASR agreement, Adtalem owed the counter party 332,212 shares of common stock. We elected to settle the contract in cash instead of delivering shares by making a cash payment of $13.2 million on November 2, 2022.

On March 14, 2022, we recorded the $150.0 million purchase price of the ASR as a reduction to shareholders’ equity, consisting of a $120.0 million increase in treasury stock and a $30.0 million reduction in additional paid-in capital, which represented an equity forward contract, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, the $30.0 million initially recorded as a reduction in additional paid-in capital was reclassified to treasury stock and an additional $13.2 million was recorded in treasury stock, which represented our final cash settlement payment.

17. Stock-Based Compensation

Adtalem maintains 2two stock-based incentive plans: the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan of 2005 and the Fourth Amended and Restated Incentive Plan of 2013, which are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. Under these plans, directors, key executives, and managerial employees are eligible to receive incentive ~~stock~~ or nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of Adtalem’s common stock, and also permit the granting of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based RSUs, and other stock and cash-based compensation. Although options remain outstanding under the 2005 incentive plan, no further ~~stock-based~~ grants will be issued under this plan. ~~Options are granted for terms of up to~~We issue options generally with a four-year graduated vesting from the grant date and expire ten years ~~and can vest immediately or over periods of up to five years. The requisite service period is equal to~~from the ~~vesting period.~~grant date. The option price under the plans is the fair market value of the shares on the date of the grant. The Compensation Committee of the Board determined to no longer grant stock options beginning with the fiscal year 2023 stock-based grant awards.

Stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Adtalem accounts for stock-based compensation granted to retirement eligible employees that fully vests upon an employee’s retirement under the non-substantive vesting period approach. Under this approach, the entire stock-based compensation expense is recognized at the grant date for stock-based grants issued to retirement eligible employees. For non-retirement eligible employees, stock-based compensation expense is recognized as expense over the employee requisite service period. We account for forfeitures of unvested awards in the period they occur.

As of December 31, ~~2021, 3,088,814~~2022, 2,871,830 shares were authorized for issuance but not issued or subject to outstanding awards under Adtalem’s stock-based incentive plans.

The expected life of the options granted is based on the weighted-average exercise life with age and salary adjustment factors from historical exercise behavior. Adtalem’s expected volatility is computed by combining and weighting the implied market volatility, the most recent volatility over the expected life of the option grant, and Adtalem’s long-term historical volatility.

18. Fair Value Measurements

Adtalem has elected not to measure any assets or liabilities at fair value other than those required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include goodwill, intangible assets, and assets of businesses where the long-term value of the operations have been impaired.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The guidance specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. The guidance establishes fair value measurement classifications under the following hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3 –Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value-drivers are unobservable.

When available, Adtalem uses quoted market prices to determine fair value, and such measurements are classified within Level 1. In cases where market prices are not available, Adtalem makes use of observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use, where possible, current market-based parameters such as interest rates and yield curves. These measurements are classified within Level 3.

Fair value measurements are classified according to the lowest level input or value-driver that is significant to the valuation. A measurement may therefore be classified within Level 3 even though there may be significant inputs that are readily observable.

~~Table of Contents~~

The carrying value of our cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of their short-term nature and is classified as Level 1.

Adtalem maintains a rabbi trust with investments in stock and bond mutual funds to fund obligations under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The fair value of the investments in the rabbi trust ~~of $21.6 million, $20.6 million,~~included in prepaid expenses and ~~$10.5 million as of December 31, 2021, June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively, were included~~other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets ~~within prepaid expenses~~as of December 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, and ~~other current assets.~~December 31, 2021 was $18.1 million, $17.8 million, and $21.6 million, respectively. These investments are recorded at fair value based upon quoted market prices using Level 1 inputs.

On July 31, 2019, Adtalem sold its Chicago, Illinois, campus facility to DePaul College Prep. In connection with the sale, Adtalem holds a mortgage from DePaul College Prep for $46.8 million. The mortgage is due on July 31, 2024 as a balloon payment and bears interest at a rate of 4% per annum, payable monthly. The carrying value of the DePaul College Prep loan receivable, which approximates its fair value, included in other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020~~2021 is ~~$43.3~~$44.6 million, ~~$42.7~~$44.0 million, and ~~$42.0~~$43.3 million, respectively. Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using an average of current rates for similar arrangements, which is estimated at 7% per annum and is classified as Level 2.

Adtalem has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for highly compensated employees and its Board members. The participant’s “investments” are in a hypothetical portfolio of investments which are tracked by an administrator. Changes in the fair value of the nonqualified deferred compensation obligation are derived using quoted prices in active markets based on the market price per unit multiplied by the number of units. Total liabilities under the plan ~~as of December 31, 2021, June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, were $21.4 million, $20.3 million, and $19.3 million, respectively, and are~~ included in accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheets.~~Sheets as of December 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021 were $14.6 million, $16.3 million, and $21.4 million, respectively. The fair value of the nonqualified deferred compensation obligation is classified as Level 2 because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to the hypothetical investments.

As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, borrowings under our long-term debt agreements were ~~$1,650.0~~$708.3 million, ~~$1,091.0~~$859.2 million, and ~~$292.5~~$1,650.0 million, respectively. The ~~carrying~~fair value of ~~our long-term debt approximates~~the Notes was $371.5 million as of December 31, 2022, which is based upon quoted market prices and is classified as Level 1. The fair value ~~because~~of the ~~interest rates on these borrowings approximated the effective interest rate~~Term Loan B was $301.6 million as of December 31, 2022, which is based upon quoted market prices in a non-active market and is classified as Level 2. See Note 13 “Debt” for additional information on our long-term debt agreements.

On March 24, 2020, we executed a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap agreement with a multinational financial institution to fully mitigate risks associated with the variable interest rate on our Prior Term Loan B debt with an effective date of March 31, 2020. The fair value of our Swap was based in part on data received from the counterparty, and represented the estimated amount we would receive or pay to settle the Swap, taking into consideration current and projected future interest rates as well as the creditworthiness of the counterparty, all of which can be validated through readily observable data from external sources, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. The fair value of the Swap is represented within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with a balance of $8.9 million and $9.6 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. On July 29, 2021, prior to refinancing our Prior Credit Agreement, we settled and terminated the Swap for $4.5 million, which resulted in a charge to interest expense in the six months ended December 31, 2021. See Note 13 “Debt” for additional information on the Swap.

~~Table of Contents~~

As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there were 0no assets or liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs.

We recorded an impairment of $5.0 million on an equity investment with no readily determinable fair value within other (expense) income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) in the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 as the carrying value is no longer recoverable. Since initial recognition of the investment, there have been no upward or downward adjustments as a result of observable price changes. Following the impairment, the carrying amount of $5.0 million was reduced to zero.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles arising from a business combination. These assets are not amortized and charged to expense over time. Instead, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles must be reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if circumstances arise indicating potential impairment. This impairment review was most recently completed as of May 31, ~~2021.~~2022. See Note 12 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” for additional information on the impairment review, including valuation techniques and assumptions.

19. Commitments and Contingencies

Adtalem is subject to lawsuits, administrative proceedings, regulatory reviews, and investigations associated with financial assistance programs and other matters arising in the normal conduct of its business. As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, Adtalem believes it has adequately reserved for potential losses. The following is a description of pending legal and regulatory matters that may be considered other than ordinary, routine, and incidental to the business. Descriptions of certain matters from prior SEC filings may not be carried forward in this report to the extent we believe such matters no longer are required to be disclosed or there has not been, to our knowledge, significant activity relating to them. We have recorded accruals for those matters where management believes a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. For those matters for which we have not recorded an accrual, their possible impact on Adtalem’s business, financial condition, or results of operations, cannot be predicted at this time. The continued defense, resolution, or settlement of any of the following matters could require us to expend significant resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows, and result in the imposition of significant restrictions on us and our ability to operate.

The plaintiff ~~claims~~claimed that defendants made false or misleading statements regarding DeVry University’s graduate employment rate and asserts causes of action under the Illinois Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act, Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and Illinois Private Business and Vocational Schools Act, and claims of breach of contract, fraudulent misrepresentation, concealment, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, unjust enrichment, and declaratory relief as to violations of state law. The plaintiff ~~seeks~~sought compensatory, exemplary, punitive, treble, and statutory penalties and damages, including pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, in addition to restitution, declaratory and injunctive relief, and attorneys’ fees. The ~~Adtalem Parties moved to dismiss this complaint on June 20, 2018. On March 11, 2019, the court granted plaintiff’s motion for leave to file an amended complaint. The~~ plaintiff later filed an amended complaint ~~that same day,~~ asserting similar claims with a new lead plaintiff, Dave McCormick. ~~The defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff’s amended complaint on April 15, 2019 and~~After discussions among the court granted defendants’ motion on July 29, 2019, with leave to amend. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on August 26, 2019. On October 18, 2019, defendants moved to dismiss this complaint as it was substantially similar to the one the court previously dismissed. After settlement discussionsparties, the court granted a Motion for Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement (the ~~“Settlement”~~“McCormick Settlement”) on May 28, 2020. In conjunction with the McCormick Settlement, Adtalem was required to establish a settlement fund by placing $44.95 million into an escrow account, which is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Adtalem management determined a loss contingency was probable and reasonably estimable. As such, we also recorded a loss contingency accrual of $44.95 million on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets as of June 30, 2020 and charged the contingency loss within discontinued operations in the Consolidated ~~Statement~~Statements of ~~Loss~~Income (Loss) for the year ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we had anticipated the potential payments related to this loss contingency to be made from the escrow account during fiscal year 2021. We now anticipate the potential payments related to this loss contingency to be made from the escrow account during fiscal year ~~2022.~~2023. This loss contingency estimate could differ from actual results and result in additional charges or reversals in future periods. The court issued an order approving the McCormick Settlement on October 7, 2020 and dismissed the action with prejudice. On November 2, 2020, Stoltmann Law Offices filed on behalf of Jose David Valderrama (“Valderrama”), a class member who objected to the terms of the McCormick Settlement, a notice toof appeal of the court’s order approving the McCormick Settlement. On November 5, 2020, ~~Richard~~Richardo Peart (“Peart”), another class member who objected to the terms of the McCormick Settlement, filed a similar notice ~~to appeal the court’s order approving the Settlement.~~

appeal. Those appeals were consolidated before the Appellate Court of Illinois, First District and fully briefed. The Appellate Court ~~has~~ agreed to stay Valderrama’s and Peart’s appeals of the McCormick Settlement pending the outcome of mediation involving the objections to the McCormick Settlement. The objections were not resolved at a mediation on February 1, ~~2022 and are still~~2022. Valderrama’s objection was withdrawn as part of the Stoltmann settlement discussed below. Peart’s objection remained pending a decision by the Appellate Court. On May 4, 2022, the Appellate Court denied Peart’s objection and affirmed the Circuit Court of Cook County’s approval of the McCormick Settlement. Adtalem settled with Peart and the McCormick Settlement is now final. The Circuit Court of Cook County is in the process of administering the $44.95 million settlement fund.

In addition to Valderrama, Stoltmann Law Offices ~~is representing hundreds of~~represented 552 individuals (“Stoltmann Claimants”) who ~~have~~opted out of the McCormick Settlement and filed claims with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) alleging fraud-based claims based on DeVry University’s graduate employment statistics. Stoltmann Law Offices has paid the filing fees for certain of these arbitrations to move forward. JAMS has sent commencement letters in several waves. Respondents have filed answers in response to certain of these arbitration demands. These arbitrations are in various stages of litigation.

On November 2, 2021, Adtalem and the Stoltmann Law Offices participated in a mediation to resolve the claims of the Stoltmann Claimants. Adtalem and the Stoltmann Law Offices have reached agreement on settlement terms ~~provided that~~(“Stoltmann Settlement”).

More particularly, the plaintiff claims that Chamberlain required students to use Respondus Monitor, which collected, captured, stored, used, and disclosed students’ biometric identifiers and biometric information without written and informed consent. The plaintiff also alleges that Chamberlain lacked a

legally compliant written policy establishing a retention schedule and guidelines for destroying biometric identifiers and biometric information. The potential class purportedly includes all students who took an assessment using the proctoring tool, as a student of Chamberlain in Illinois, at any time from March 12, 2016 through January 20, 2021. The plaintiff and the putative class seek damages in excess of $50,000, ~~attorneys’~~attorney’s fees and costs.

On July 22, 2021, plaintiffs Cheryl Burleigh and Chad Harris (both contributing faculty members at Walden) filed a class action complaint in the Superior Court of Alameda County, California alleging violations of California wage and hour laws by Walden and Laureate Education, Inc. The complaint alleges that Walden’s “per assignment” pay scale results in uncompensated work time for plaintiffs and class members for time spent in trainings and meetings. Plaintiffs also allege that they were not paid for meal and rest breaks, that they were not reimbursed for necessary business expenses, that Walden did not provide wage statements as required by California state law, and that they were not paid wages due upon termination.

20. Segment Information

~~During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, Adtalem made a change to its reportable segments to align with current strategic priorities and resource allocation.~~

Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, Adtalem eliminated its Financial Services segment when ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine, were classified as discontinued operations. See Note 4 “Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale” for additional information. Segment information presented excludes the results of the former Financial Services segment. Discontinued operations assets are included in the table below to reconcile to total consolidated assets presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, certain expenses previously allocated to ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine within our former Financial Services segment during fiscal year 2021 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 were reclassified to the Home Office and Other segment based on discontinued operations reporting guidance regarding allocation of corporate overhead. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, these costs are being allocated to the Chamberlain, Walden, and Medical and Veterinary segments.

We present 3three reportable segments as follows:

Chamberlain – Offers degree and non-degree programs in the nursing and health professions postsecondary education industry. This segment includes the operations of Chamberlain.

Table of Contents

Walden – Offers more than 100 online certificate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees, including those in nursing, education, counseling, business, psychology, public health, social work and human services, public administration and public policy, and criminal justice. This segment includes the operations of Walden, which was acquired by Adtalem on August 12, 2021. See Note 3 “Acquisitions” for additional information on the acquisition.

Medical and Veterinary – Offers degree and non-degree programs in the medical and veterinary postsecondary education industry. This segment includes the operations of AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM, which are collectively referred to as the “medical and veterinary schools.”

Certain expenses previously allocated to ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine within our former Financial Services segment during the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 have been reclassified to Home Office and Other based on discontinued operations reporting guidance regarding allocation of corporate overhead. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, these costs are being allocated to the Chamberlain, Walden, and Medical and Veterinary segments.

These segments are consistent with the method by which the Chief Operating Decision Maker (Adtalem’s President and Chief Executive Officer) evaluates performance and allocates resources. Performance evaluations are based on each segment’s adjusted operating ~~income excluding special items. Operating~~income. Adjusted operating income excludes special items, which consists of deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, business acquisition and integration expense, and ~~Walden~~ intangible asset amortization. Adtalem’s management excludes these items from its review of the results of the operating segments for purposes of measuring segment profitability and allocating resources. “Home Office and Other” includes activities not allocated to a reportable segment and is included to reconcile segment results to the Consolidated Financial Statements. ~~Segments may have allocated depreciation expense related to depreciable~~Total assets ~~reported~~by segment is not presented as ~~an asset in a different segment.~~our CODM does not review or allocate resources based on segment assets. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

accordance with GAAP, we have classified the ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine entities as “Held for Sale” and “Discontinued Operations” in all periods presented as applicable. As a result, all financial results, disclosures, and discussions of continuing operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q exclude ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine operations, unless otherwise noted. On March 10, 2022, we completed the sale of ACAMS, Becker, and OCL and on June 17, 2022, we completed the sale of EduPristine. In addition, we continue to incur costs associated with ongoing litigation and settlements related to the DeVry University divestiture, which was completed during fiscal year 2019, and are classified as expense within discontinued operations. See Note 4 “Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discontinued operations information.

We present three reportable segments as follows:

Chamberlain – Offers degree and non-degree programs in the nursing and health professions postsecondary education industry. This segment includes the operations of Chamberlain University (“Chamberlain”).

Walden – Offers more than 100 online certificate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees, including those in nursing, education, counseling, business, psychology, public health, social work and human services, public administration and public policy, and criminal justice. This segment includes the operations of Walden University (“Walden”), which was acquired by Adtalem on August 12, 2021. See Note 3 “Acquisitions” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the acquisition.

Medical and Veterinary – Offers degree and non-degree programs in the medical and veterinary postsecondary education industry. This segment includes the operations of the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (“AUC”), Ross University School of Medicine (“RUSM”), and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (“RUSVM”), which are collectively referred to as the “medical and veterinary schools.”

“Home Office and Other” includes activities not allocated to a reportable segment. Financial and descriptive information about Adtalem’s reportable segments is presented in Note 20 “Segment Information” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Certain expenses previously allocated to ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine within our former Financial Services segment during ~~fiscal year 2021 and~~ the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 have been reclassified to ~~the~~ Home Office and Other ~~segment~~ based on discontinued operations reporting guidance regarding allocation of corporate overhead. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, these costs are being allocated to the Chamberlain, Walden, and Medical and Veterinary segments.

Walden University Acquisition

On August 12, 2021, Adtalem completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding equity interest in Walden e-Learning, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“e-Learning”), and its subsidiary, Walden University, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, from Laureate Education, Inc. (“Laureate” or “Seller”) in exchange for a purchase price of $1.5 billion in cash ~~as set forth in the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement)~~ (the “Acquisition”). See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A for a discussion on the financing used to fund the Acquisition. The risks and uncertainties related to the Acquisition are described in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 (“~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K”).

Overview of the Impact of COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 has had tragic consequences across the globe and altered business and consumer activity across many industries. Management initiated several changes to the operations of our institutions and administrative functions in order to protect the health of our students and employees and to mitigate the financial effects of COVID-19 and its resultant economic slowdown. We will continue to evaluate, and if appropriate, adopt other measures in the future required for the ongoing safety of our students and employees.

~~Results of Operations~~

Management believes ~~the decreased~~that enrollments are negatively impacted at Chamberlain and Walden, and to a lesser extent at Medical and Veterinary, ~~are partially driven~~ by disruptions in the nursing and healthcare markets caused by COVID-19. The amount of revenue, operating income, and earnings per share losses in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2023 and 2022 driven by this disruption are not quantifiable. ~~Management~~While COVID-19 continues to dissipate, management anticipates that the stress caused by COVID-19 on healthcare professionals will continue to negatively affect consolidated revenue, operating ~~income, net~~ income, and earnings per share during the remainder of fiscal year ~~2022~~2023 and ~~beyond or~~ for as long as the pandemic and the various surges continue. In the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022, we experienced higher variable expenses associated with bringing students back to campus and providing a safe environment in the context of COVID-19 as we continue to ~~move back to in-person instruction at Chamberlain~~stress healthcare professionals.

Remote and ~~the medical and veterinary schools. These higher variable expenses are expected to~~hybrid work arrangements continue during the remainder of fiscal year 2022; however, these are expenses incurred in the normal course of on campus operations and will not be categorized as COVID-19 expenses. COVID-19 effects on the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022 and 2021 results of operations of the Adtalem institutions are described below.

●~~Chamberlain~~: Approximately 30% of Chamberlain’s students are based at campus locations and pursuing their Bachelor of Science in Nursing (“BSN”) degree; at the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak, all campus-based students transitioned to online learning for didactic and select clinical experiences. The remaining 70% of Chamberlain’s students are enrolled in online programs that may or may not have clinical components and those programs continued to

~~Table of Contents~~

successfully operate. Students and employees have returned to all Chamberlain campuses for onsite instruction. Management believes that COVID-19 disruptions in the healthcare industry may have driven the enrollment decisions of potential students in the September 2021 and November 2021 sessions; however, the resulting revenue losses specific to COVID-19 are not quantifiable. COVID-19 did not result in significantly increased costs at Chamberlain in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022 or 2021. The extent of the impact during the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and beyond will be determined based on the length and severity of the effects of COVID-19, the efficacy and distribution of the vaccines, and whether any pandemic surge affects healthcare facilities’ ability to continue to provide clinical experiences. Chamberlain has clinical partnerships with healthcare facilities across the U.S., minimizing the risk of suspension of all onsite clinical education experiences.

●~~Walden~~: All of Walden’s students are enrolled in online programs and these programs have continued to successfully operate throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Management believes that COVID-19 disruptions in the healthcare industry may have driven the enrollment decisions of potential students in the September 2021 and December 2021 terms; however, the resulting revenue losses specific to COVID-19 are not quantifiable. COVID-19 did not result in increased costs at Walden in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022. The extent of the impact during the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and beyond will be determined based on the length and severity of the effects of COVID-19 and the efficacy and distribution of the vaccines.

●~~AUC and RUSM~~: Medical students enrolled in the basic science portion of their program transitioned to online learning at the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak. Many students left St. Maarten and Barbados to continue their studies remotely from other locations. AUC and RUSM were able to provide remote learning and have students remain eligible for U.S. federal financial aid assistance under a waiver provided by the U.S. Secretary of Education that was included in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) signed into law in March 2020. The waiver was dependent upon the host country’s coronavirus state of emergency declaration. The nation of St. Maarten lifted their declaration in June 2020, and as a result, AUC’s ability to offer distance education ended after the September 2020 semester, requiring all AUC students to return to St. Maarten for basic science instruction effective January 2021. A limited number of RUSM students began returning to Barbados in January and May 2021 with a full return occurring for the September 2021 semester. The Consolidated Appropriates Act, 2021 (the “Appropriations Act”) was signed into law in December 2020, and corrected technical errors in the CARES Act, which clarified the authority to operate via distance learning due to a declaration of an emergency in an applicable country or a qualifying emergency in the U.S. This section also extends these flexibilities through the end of the qualifying emergency or June 30, 2022, whichever is later. The Appropriations Act provides Adtalem’s foreign institutions the ability to continue distance education without disruption to their students’ Title IV federal financial aid. Management believes uncertainties caused by COVID-19 may have driven the enrollment decisions of potential and current students; however, COVID-19 did not result in significant or quantifiable revenue losses or increased costs within the basic science programs at the medical schools in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022 or 2021, except with respect to housing operations in fiscal year 2021, as discussed below. COVID-19 will likely continue to have a minimal impact on basic science program revenue in fiscal year 2022, unless significant numbers of students choose to not continue or start their studies during this time of uncertainty. The extent of the impact during the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and beyond will be determined based on the length and severity of the effects of COVID-19 and the efficacy and distribution of the vaccines. Students who have completed their basic science education progress to clinical rotations in the U.S. and the U.K. Clinical rotations for all students were temporarily suspended in March 2020; however, some students were able to participate in online clinical elective courses during this transition period and beyond. The COVID-19 surge experienced during the winter in fiscal year 2021 across the U.S. caused many partner hospitals to again reduce the hours available for clinical experiences. As a result, although many students were able to resume their clinical education during the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, management estimates that not being able to offer a full clinical program reduced combined revenue of AUC and RUSM by approximately $3 million and $7 million and operating income losses by approximately $2 million and $4 million in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2021, respectively. As of June 2021, all clinical partners of AUC and RUSM have resumed their clinical programs. As a result, COVID-19 did not result in any lost clinical revenue in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022. Should future surges in COVID-19 again restrict the number of clinical hours available to our students, we could experience negative effects on revenue and operating income in future periods. Adtalem has clinical partnerships with hospitals across the U.S. and the U.K., minimizing the risk of suspension of all onsite clinical education experiences. In addition to the loss of clinical revenue and operating income at AUC and RUSM, management estimates losses of housing and student transportation revenue of approximately $3 million and $8 million and operating income

~~Table of Contents~~

losses of approximately $3 million and $6 million in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2021, respectively, due to students not returning to the St. Maarten and Barbados campuses. All students were back on the two campuses in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, and therefore, COVID-19 did not result in lost housing and student transportation revenue in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022.

●~~RUSVM:~~ All basic science veterinary students transitioned to online learning beginning in March 2020. Many students left St. Kitts in March 2020 to continue their studies remotely from other locations. As of May 2021, all basic science students have returned to St. Kitts where lectures continue to be delivered in -person and remotely and labs are in-person. COVID-19 did not result in significant revenue losses or increased costs within the basic science program in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022 or 2021. We do not expect a significant impact from COVID-19 on the basic science program for the remainder of fiscal year 2022, unless students choose to not continue or start their studies during this time of uncertainty. RUSVM continued to provide remote learning during the pandemic and students remained eligible for U.S. federal financial aid assistance under a waiver provided by the CARES Act and the Appropriations Act. The Appropriations Act extends through the end of the qualifying emergency or June 30, 2022, whichever is later, as described above. Students who have completed their basic science education progress to clinical rotations at select universities in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, and the U.K. A few universities initially suspended onsite clinical experiences and transitioned students to online education. All universities have since resumed onsite clinical courses. The initial suspensions did not significantly reduce revenue or operating income in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022 or 2021. While we do not expect a significant impact from COVID-19 at RUSVM, the extent of the impact on clinical experiences during the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and beyond will be determined based on the length and severity of the effects of COVID-19 and the efficacy and distribution of the vaccines.

●~~Administrative Operations: Most institution and home office administrative operations continue to principally be performed remotely. This includes operations~~ in both the U.S. and ~~all~~at foreign locations. ~~These~~The remote work arrangements have not adversely affected Adtalem’s ability to maintain operations, financial reporting systems, internal control over financial reporting, or disclosure controls and procedures. The effectiveness of our remote technology enables our ability to maintain these systems and controls. Management does not anticipate Adtalem will be materially impacted by any constraints or other impacts on our human capital resources and productivity. Travel restrictions and border closures are not expected to have a material impact on our ability to operate and achieve operational goals. While recent travel expenditures have been lower than historical levels, we would expect these costs to increase as the effects of COVID-19 ~~dissipate. No significant home office costs were incurred related~~continue to ~~COVID-19 in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2022 or 2021 and no such costs are anticipated during the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and beyond.~~

dissipate.

Although COVID-19 has had a negative effect on the operating results of all four reporting units that contain goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of December 31, ~~2021, at this time~~2022, none of the effects are considered significant enough to create an impairment triggering event since our annual goodwill impairment assessment on May 31, 2021. While management has considered the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in evaluating the existence of an impairment triggering event, it is possible that effects to revenue and cash flows will be more significant than currently expected if the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and measures established to combat the virus continue for an extended period of time. Should economic conditions deteriorate beyond expectations during the ~~remainder~~second quarter of fiscal year ~~2022, an~~2023. In addition, our annual impairment ~~triggering event could arise and require reassessment of the fair values of goodwill and intangible assets.~~

~~Liquidity~~

~~Adtalem’s cash and cash equivalents balance~~assessment performed as of ~~December~~May 31, ~~2021 was $275.4~~million. Adtalem used $19.0 million in operating cash flow from continuing operations in the first six months of fiscal year 2022. In the event of unexpected market conditions or negative economic changes, including those caused by COVID-19, that could negatively affect Adtalem’s earnings and/or operating cash flow, Adtalem maintains a $400 million revolving credit facility with availability of $316.0 million as of December 31, 2021. Management currently projects that COVID-19 will continue to have an effect on operations; however, we believe the current balances of cash, cash generated from operations, and our credit facility will be sufficient to fund both Adtalem’s current domestic and international operations and growth plans in the foreseeable future. See further discussion on the new financing executed to close the Acquisition in the section of this MD&A titled “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”2022 did not identify any impairments.

Management is executing its plan to differentiate the medical and veterinary schools from the competition, with a core goal of increasing international students, increasing affiliations with historically black colleges and universities (“HBCU”) and Hispanic-serving institutions (“HSI”), expanding AUC’s medical education program based in the U.K. in partnership with the University of Central Lancashire (“UCLAN”), and improving the effectiveness of marketing and enrollment investments.

Cost of Educational Services

The largest component of cost of educational services is the cost of faculty and staff who support educational operations. This expense category also includes the costs of facilities, adjunct faculty, supplies, housing, bookstore, other educational materials, student education-related support activities, and the provision for bad debts. We have not yet experienced significant inflationary pressures on wages or other costs of delivering our educational services; however, should inflation persist in the overall economy, cost ~~increase~~increases could affect our results of operations in the future.

Student Services and Administrative Expense

The student services and administrative expense category includes expenses related to student admissions, marketing and advertising, general and administrative, and amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets related to business acquisitions. We have not yet experienced significant inflationary pressures on wages or other costs of providing services to our students and educational institutions; however, should inflation persist in the overall economy, cost increases could affect our results of operations in the future.

The ~~primary driver of the increased~~decreased restructure expense in the second quarter ~~and~~of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago period was primarily driven by a reduction in restructuring activity including severance charges related to workforce reductions. The increased restructure expense in the first six months of fiscal year ~~2022 was the higher severance charges related to workforce reductions related to synergy actions with regard~~2023 compared to the year-ago period was primarily driven by real estate consolidations at Walden, ~~acquisition.~~Medical and Veterinary, and Adtalem’s home office resulting in impairments on operating lease assets and property and equipment. See Note 6 “Restructuring Charges” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on restructuring charges.

~~In addition to continuing~~We continue to incur restructuring charges or reversals related to exiting leased space from previous restructuring ~~activities, we have begun additional restructuring plans to achieve synergies with the Walden acquisition.~~activities.

Business Acquisition and Integration Expense

Business acquisition and integration expense in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year ~~2022~~2023 was ~~$9.1~~$15.9 million and ~~$35.6~~$24.4 million, respectively, compared to ~~$11.1~~$9.1 million and ~~$24.5~~$35.6 million in the year-ago periods. These are transaction costs associated with acquiring Walden and costs associated with integrating Walden into Adtalem. In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we initiated transformation initiatives to accelerate growth and organizational

The primary driver of the adjusted operating income increase in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 was cost reduction efforts across all institutions partially offset by the decreased revenue at Walden. The primary drivers of the adjusted operating income increase in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 were the timing of the Walden acquisition in the prior year and cost reduction efforts across all institutions.

Chamberlain

Chamberlain operating income increased 30.5%, or $7.8 million, to $33.2 million in the second quarter and increased 28.3%, or $13.1 million, to $59.4million in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago periods. Segment adjusted operating income increased 28.8%, or $7.4 million, to $33.2 million in the second quarter and increased 29.1%, or $13.6 million, to $60.2 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago periods. The primary driver of the increases in adjusted operating income in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2023 was the result of labor cost reductions.

Walden

Walden operating income was $12.8 million and $14.6 million in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year ~~2022,~~2023, respectively, compared to ~~the year-ago periods. The primary drivers~~operating loss of ~~the operating income decreases in the second quarter~~$2.4 million and the first six months of fiscal year 2022 were decreased revenue at Chamberlain and Medical and Veterinary, increased costs at Chamberlain and Medical and Veterinary for return to campus, increased marketing expense at Chamberlain, and CEO transition costs. An additional driver of the operating income decrease in the first six months of fiscal year 2022 was increased business acquisition and integration costs.

~~Consolidated operating income excluding special items increased 70.0%, or $28.9~~$14.1 million in the ~~second quarter and increased 27.6%, or $23.1million, in the first six months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the~~ year-ago ~~periods. The addition of operating income excluding special items from Walden was partially offset by the drivers explained above for the other segments.~~

~~Chamberlain~~

Chamberlain operating income decreased 21.6%, or $7.0 million, to $25.5 million in the second quarter and decreased 26.1%, or $16.3 million, to $46.3 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the year-ago periods. The primary drivers of the decreases in operating income was decreased revenue, increased costs for return to campus and increased marketing expense.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Walden~~

~~Walden operating loss was $2.4million in the second quarter and an operating loss of $14.1million in the first six months of fiscal year 2022,~~periods, which were impacted by intangible amortization expense and the deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments. Segment adjusted operating income ~~excluding special items~~decreased 10.5%, or $3.4 million, to $29.0 million in the second quarter and increased 20.7%, or $9.0 million, to $52.4 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago periods. The primary driver of the decrease in adjusted operating income in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 was ~~$32.4~~the decrease in revenue. The primary driver of the increase in adjusted operating income in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 was the timing of the Walden acquisition in the prior year.

Medical and Veterinary

Medical and Veterinary operating income increased 17.5%, or $3.4 million, ~~and $43.4~~to $22.9 million in the second quarter and decreased 4.9%, or $1.7million, to $33.5million in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago periods. Segment adjusted operating income increased 16.8%, or $3.3 million, to $23.0 million in the second quarter and increased 14.1%, or $5.0 million, to $40.4 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago periods. The primary driver of the increases in adjusted operating income in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year ~~2022, respectively. There~~2023 was ~~no comparable operating income in~~ the ~~year-ago periods as Adtalem acquired Walden on August 12, 2021.~~result of lower labor, rent, and other expense.

~~Medical and Veterinary~~

~~Medical and Veterinary operating income increased 3.8%, or $0.7million, to $19.5million in the second quarter and decreased 15.5%, or $6.5million, to $35.2~~million in the first six months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the year-ago periods. The primary driver of the increase in operating income in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 was lower bad debt expense. The primary driver of the decrease in operating income in the first six months of fiscal year 2022 was an increase in costs for return to campus.

~~Net Other~~Interest Expense

~~Net other~~Interest expense in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year ~~2022~~2023 was ~~$25.1~~$15.6 million and ~~$71.6~~$33.3 million, respectively, compared to ~~$1.5~~$25.9 million and ~~$3.7~~$73.3 million in the year-ago periods. The ~~increase~~decreases in ~~net other~~interest expense was primarily the result of ~~increased~~decreased borrowings in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago periods due to prepayments of debt. In addition, the decrease in the first six months of fiscal year 2023 compared to the year-ago period was also a result of the year-ago period incurring charges due to the write-off of issuance costs on the Prior Credit Facility and unused bridge fee (as defined and discussed in Note 13 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements). These decreases in interest expense were partially offset by rising interest rates on outstanding debt. As of December 31, 2022, the interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan B facility was 8.39% compared to ~~finance~~5.25% as of December 31, 2021.

periods. The increases in other expense, net was primarily the result of a $5.0 million investment impairment of an equity investment in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2023.

(Provision for) Benefit from ~~(Provision for)~~ Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate (“ETR”) from continuing operations can differ from the 21% U.S. federal statutory rate due to several factors, including tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), limitation of tax benefits on certain executive compensation, the rate of tax applied by state and local jurisdictions, the rate of tax applied to earnings outside the U.S., tax incentives, changes in valuation ~~allowances,~~allowance, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and tax benefits on stock-based compensation awards. ~~Additionally, our ETR is impacted by the~~

Our income tax provisions from continuing operations were $4.2 million and $5.3 million in the ~~Tax Cuts~~three and ~~Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), which primarily includes a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), a deduction for foreign derived intangible income (“FDII”),~~six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, and a limitation of tax benefits on certain executive compensation. The impact of the Tax Act may be revised in future periods as we obtain additional data and consider any new regulations or guidance that may be released.

~~Our~~our income tax benefits from continuing operations were $39.4 million and $30.8 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, ~~respectively, and our income tax expenses from continuing operations were $3.6 million and $7.8 million in the~~respectively. The three and six months ended December 31, ~~2020, respectively. The increase~~2022 resulted in income tax provisions compared to income tax benefits in the fiscal year 2022 income tax benefit is the result of the losses incurred for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, and a catch-up tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022year-ago periods primarily due to the ~~change~~impacts recognized in the ~~full year ETR after reflecting discontinued operations treatment for the Financial Services segment.~~

~~On December 27, 2020, the Appropriations Act was enacted in response~~year-ago periods related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Appropriations Act, among other things, temporarily extends through December 31, 2025, certain expiring tax provisions, including look-through treatment of payments of dividends, interest, rents, and royalties received or accrued from related controlled foreign corporations. Additionally, the Appropriations Act enacted new provisions and extended certain provisions originated within the CARES Act, enacted on March 27, 2020, including an extension of time for repayment of the deferred portion of employees’ payroll tax through December 31, 2021, and a temporary allowance for full deduction of certain business meals. Adtalem elected not to defer the employees’ portion of payroll tax. Management does not expect that the other provisions of the Appropriations Act would result in a material tax or cash benefit.Walden acquisition.

Discontinued Operations

Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine operations were classified as discontinued operations. In addition, we continue to incur costs associated with ongoing litigation and settlements related to the DeVry University divestiture, which was completed during fiscal year 2019, and are classified as expense within discontinued operations.

~~Total~~Net income from discontinued operations in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $0.5 million.

Regulatory Environment

~~Student Payments~~

Adtalem’s primary source of liquidity is the cash received from payments for student tuition, books, other educational materials, and fees. These payments include funds originating as financial aid from various federal and state loan and grant programs, student and family educational loans (“private loans”), employer educational reimbursements, scholarships, and student and family financial resources. Adtalem continues to provide financing options for its students, including Adtalem’s credit extension programs.

The following table, which excludes ACAMS, Adtalem Brazil (divestiture completed during fiscal year 2020, Becker, EduPristine, and OCL revenue, summarizes Adtalem’s revenue by fund source as a percentage of total revenue for fiscal years 2021 and 2020.

The pattern of cash receipts during the year is seasonal. Adtalem’s cash collections on accounts receivable peak at the start of each institution’s term. Accounts receivable reach their lowest level at the end of each institution’s term.

~~Financial Aid~~

Like other higher education companies, Adtalem is highly dependent upon the timely receipt of federal financial aid funds. All financial aid and assistance programs are subject to political and governmental budgetary considerations. In the U.S., the Higher Education Act (“HEA”) guides the federal government’s support of postsecondary education. If there are changes to financial aid programs that restrict student eligibility or reduce funding levels, Adtalem’s financial condition and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K for a discussion of student financial aid related risks.

Table of Contents

In addition, government-funded financial assistance programs are governed by extensive and complex regulations in the U.S. Like any other educational institution, Adtalem’s administration of these programs is periodically reviewed by various regulatory agencies and is subject to audit or investigation by other governmental authorities. Any violation could be the basis for penalties or other disciplinary action, including initiation of a suspension, limitation, or termination proceeding.

If the U.S. Department of Education (“ED”) determines that we have failed to demonstrate either financial responsibility or administrative capability in any pending program review, or otherwise determines that an institution has violated the terms of its Program Participation Agreement (“PPA”), we could be subject to sanctions including: fines, penalties, reimbursement for discharged loan obligations, a requirement to post a letter of credit, and/or suspension or termination of our eligibility to participate in the Title IV programs.

~~Table~~Chamberlain was most recently recertified and issued an unrestricted PPA in September 2020, with an expiration date of ~~Contents~~

March 31, 2024. Walden was issued a Temporary Provisional PPA (“TPPPA”) on September 17, 2021 in connection with their acquisition by Adtalem. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, ED provisionally recertified AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM’s Title IV PPAs with expiration dates of December 31, 2022, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, respectively. The lengthy PPA recertification process is such that ED allows unhampered continued access to Title IV funding after PPA expiration, so long as materially complete applications are submitted at least 90 days in advance of expiration. Complete applications for PPA recertification have been or will be timely submitted to ED. The provisional nature of the existing agreements for AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM stemmed from increased and/or repeated Title IV compliance audit findings. NoWalden’s TPPPA included financial ~~ramifications,~~requirements, which were in place prior to acquisition, such as a letter of credit, heightened cash monitoring, ~~or student enrollment limitations,~~and additional reporting. No similar requirements were imposed on ~~any of these institutions.~~AUC, RUSM, or RUSVM. While corrective actions have been taken to resolve past compliance matters and eliminate the incidence of repetition, if AUC, RUSM, or RUSVM fail to maintain administrative capability as defined by ED while under provisional status or otherwise fail to comply with ED requirements, the institution(s) could lose eligibility to participate in Title IV programs or have that eligibility adversely conditioned, which could have a material adverse effect on the businesses, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

~~On October 13, 2016, DeVry University and~~ ED reached a negotiated agreement (the “ED Settlement”) to settle the claims asserted in a Notice of Intent to Limit from the Multi-Regional and Foreign School Participation Division of the Federal Student Aid office of the Department of Education (“ED FSA”). Under the terms of the ED Settlement, among other things, without admitting wrongdoing, DeVry University agreed to certain compliance requirements regarding its past and future advertising, that DeVry University’s participation inmay alternatively issue new PPAs for continued Title IV programs was subject to provisional certification for five years and that DeVry University was required to post a letter of credit equal to the greater of 10% of DeVry University’s annual Title IV disbursements or $68.4 million for a five-year period. The posted letter of credit continued to be posted by Adtalem following the closing of the sale of DeVry University. This letter of credit expired during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 and is no longer outstanding as of December 31, 2021.participation.

Walden must apply periodically to ED for continued certification to participate in Title IV programs. Such recertification generally is required every six years, but may be required earlier, including when an institution undergoes a change in control. ED may place an institution on provisional certification status if it finds that the institution does not fully satisfy all of the eligibility and certification standards and in certain other circumstances, such as when an institution is certified for the first time or undergoes a change in control. During the period of provisional certification, the institution must comply with any additional conditions included in the institution’s ~~program participation agreement.~~PPA. In addition, ED may more closely review an institution that is provisionally certified if it applies for recertification or approval to open a new location, add an educational program, acquire another institution or make any other significant change. Students attending provisionally certified institutions remain eligible to receive Title IV program funds. If ED determines that a provisionally certified institution is unable to meet its responsibilities under its ~~program participation agreement,~~PPA, it may seek to revoke the institution’s certification to participate in Title IV programs without advance notice or opportunity for the institution to challenge the action. Walden ~~University~~ is currently on a ~~temporary provisional program participation agreement~~TPPPA which is required for participation in Title IV programs on a month-to-month basis. Walden’s provisional certification prior to acquisition was due to Walden’s prior parent company (Laureate Education Inc.) failing composite score under ED’s financial responsibility standards and ED’s approval of Laureate’s initial public offering in February 2017, which it viewed as a change in control. As a result of Adtalem’s acquisition of Walden, the provisional nature of Walden’s ~~program participation agreement~~PPA remains in effect on a month-to-month basis while ED reviews the change in ownership application relating to the acquisition of Walden by Adtalem. Walden also is subject to a letter of credit and is subject to additional cash management requirements with respect to its disbursements of Title IV funds, as well as a restriction on changes to its educational programs, including a prohibition on the addition of new programs or locations that had not been approved by ED prior to the change in ownership during the period in which Walden participates under provisional certification (either as a result of the change in ownership or because of the continuation of the financial responsibility letter of credit). AsAdtalem had a surety-backed letter of credit outstanding of $84.0 million as of December 31, ~~2021, Adtalem maintains a letter of credit for $84.0 million~~2022 in favor of the ED on behalf of Walden, which allows Walden to participate in Title IV programs. ~~This~~On January 18, 2023, we received a letter from ED, requesting Adtalem to provide a letter of credit ~~which was assumed~~ in the ~~Acquisition, reduces Adtalem’s borrowing capacity dollar-for-dollar under its Credit Facility (as defined in Note 13 “Debt”~~amount of $76.1 million related to ED’s review of the ~~Consolidated Financial Statements).~~Same Day Balance Sheet, which is the consolidated Adtalem balance sheet as of August 12, 2021, the date of the Walden acquisition.

An ED regulation known as the “90/10 Rule” affects only proprietary postsecondary institutions, such as Chamberlain, Walden, AUC, RUSM, and RUSVM. Under this regulation, an institution that derives more than 90% of its revenue on a cash basis from Title IV student financial assistance programs in two consecutive fiscal years loses eligibility to participate in these programs for at least two fiscal years. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the “Rescue Act”) enacted on March 11, 2021 amended the 90/10 rule to require that a proprietary institution derive no more than 90% of its revenue from federal education assistance funds, including but not limited to previously excluded U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and military tuition assistance benefits. This change iswas subject to negotiated rulemaking, which ~~began~~ended in ~~January~~March 2022. The amended rule will first apply to institutional fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The following table details the percentage of revenue on

AAn ED defined financial responsibility test is required for continued participation by an ~~institution’s students~~institution in ~~U.S. federal financial assistance~~Title IV aid programs. For Adtalem’s ~~participating~~ institutions, this test is calculated at the consolidated Adtalem level. ~~The~~Applying various financial elements from the fiscal year audited financial statements, the test is based upon a composite score of three ratios: an equity ratio that measures the institution’s capital resources; a primary reserve ratio that measures an institution’s ability to fund its operations from current resources; and a net income ratio that measures an institution’s ability to operate profitably. A minimum score of 1.5 is necessary to meet ED’s financial standards. Institutions with scores of less than 1.5 but greater than or equal to 1.0 are considered financially responsible, but require additional oversight. These institutions are subject to heightened cash monitoring and other participation requirements. An institution with a score of less than 1.0 is considered not financially responsible. However, an institution with a score of less than 1.0 may continue to participate in the Title IV programs under provisional certification. In addition, this lower score typically requires that the institution be subject to heightened cash monitoring requirements and post a letter of credit (equal to a minimum of 10% of the Title IV aid it received in the institution's most recent fiscal year).

For the past several years, Adtalem’s composite score has exceeded the required minimum of 1.5. Changes to the manner in which the composite score is calculated that were effective on July 1, 2020 has negatively affected Adtalem’s composite score for fiscal year 2021 and will continue to negatively affect future Adtalem scores. At this time, management does not believe these changes by themselves will result in the score falling below 1.5. However, asAs a result of ~~the~~ acquisition of Walden, ~~and the related transactions,~~ Adtalem expects ED will conclude its consolidated composite score towill fall below ~~1.5~~1.5. As a result, ED may impose certain additional conditions for ~~its fiscal year 2022 financial responsibility test.

Management does not believe such conditions, if any, will have a material adverse effect on Adtalem’s operations.

ED also has initiated rulemaking proceedings to ~~continue to participate in federal and state~~amend the financial ~~assistance programs.~~responsibility regulations. The earliest we believe any new rules will be effective is July 1, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Adtalem’s primary source of liquidity is the cash received from payments for student tuition, fees, books, and other educational materials. These payments include funds originating as financial aid from various federal and state loan and grant programs, student and family educational loans, employer educational reimbursements, scholarships, and student and family financial resources. Adtalem continues to provide financing options for its students, including Adtalem’s credit extension programs.

Adtalem’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents balance of ~~$275.4~~$207.8 million, ~~$476.4~~$347.0 million, and ~~$415.9~~$275.4 million as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, included cash and cash equivalents held at Adtalem’s international operations of ~~$51.7~~$18.7 million, ~~$111.7~~$34.2 million, and ~~$44.5~~$51.7 million as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, which is available to Adtalem for general corporate purposes.

Under the terms of Adtalem institutions’ participation in financial aid programs, certain cash received from state governments and ED is maintained in restricted bank accounts. Adtalem receives these funds either after the financial aid authorization and disbursement process for the benefit of the student is completed, or just prior to that authorization. Once

~~Table of Contents~~

the authorization and disbursement process for a particular student is completed, the funds may be transferred to unrestricted accounts and become available for Adtalem to use in operations. This process generally occurs during the academic term for which such funds have been authorized. Cash in the amount of ~~$1.2~~$2.2 million, ~~$0.4~~$1.0 million, and ~~$39.4~~$1.2 million was held in these restricted bank accounts as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. The higher balance in these accounts at December 31, 2020 was driven by the federal financial aid funds received during December 2020 for the January 2021 semester at the medical and veterinary schools, which were not yet transferred to unrestricted accounts as of December 31, 2020. The federal financial aid funds we received in December 2021 for the January 2022 semester at the medical and veterinary schools were transferred to unrestricted accounts prior to December 31, 2021. In addition, $818.6 million was recorded within restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021, which represents cash held in an escrow account designated to fund the Acquisition and was not available to Adtalem for general corporate purposes (see Note 13 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information).

On November 8, 2018, we announced that the Board authorized Adtalem’s eleventh share repurchase program, which allowed Adtalem to repurchase up to $300 million of its common stock through December 31, 2021. The eleventh share repurchase program commenced in January 2019 and was completed in January 2021. On February 4, 2020, we announced that the Board authorized Adtalem’s twelfth share repurchase program, which allowed Adtalem to repurchase up to ~~$300~~$300.0 million of its common stock through December 31, 2021. The twelfth share repurchase program commenced in January 2021 and expired on December 31, 2021. ~~Repurchases were suspended in May 2021 after achieving management’s target~~On March 1, 2022, we announced that the Board authorized Adtalem’s thirteenth share repurchase program, which allows Adtalem to repurchase up to $300.0 million of ~~$100 million in repurchases for fiscal year 2021.~~its common stock through February 25, 2025. We did not make any share repurchases under these programs during the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. See Note 15 “Share Repurchases” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our share repurchase programs.

On March 14, 2022, we entered into an ASR agreement to repurchase $150.0 million of common stock. We received an initial delivery of 4,709,576shares of common stock representing approximately 80% of the total shares expected to be delivered at the time of executing the ASR based on the per share price on the day prior to the execution date. The final number of shares to be repurchased was based on the volume-weighted average price of Adtalem’s common stock during the term of the ASR agreement, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms of the ASR agreement. The ASR agreement ended on October 14, 2022. Based on the volume-weighted average price of Adtalem’s common stock during the term of the ASR agreement, Adtalem owed the counter party 332,212 shares of common stock. We elected to settle the contract in cash instead of delivering shares by making a cash payment of $13.2 million on November 2, 2022.

On March 24, 2020, we executed a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap agreement (the “Swap”) with a multinational financial institution to mitigate risks associated with the variable interest rate on our Prior Term Loan B (as defined in Note 13 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements) debt. We paid interest at a fixed rate of 0.946% and received variable interest of one-month LIBOR (subject to a minimum of 0.00%), on a notional amount equal to the amount outstanding under the Prior Term Loan B. The effective date of the Swap was March 31, 2020 and settlements with the counterparty occurred on a monthly basis. The Swap was set to terminate on February 28, 2025. On July 29, 2021, prior to refinancing our Prior Credit Agreement (as discussed below), we settled and terminated the Swap for $4.5 million, which resulted in a charge to interest expense for this amount in the ~~first~~ six months ~~of fiscal year 2022.~~ended December 31, 2021. During the operating term of the Swap, the annual interest rate on the amount of the Prior Term Loan B was fixed at 3.946% (including the impact of ~~our current~~the 3% interest rate margin on LIBOR loans) for the applicable interest rate period. The Swap was designated as a cash flow hedge and as such, changes in its fair value were recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets and were reclassified into the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) within interest expense in the periods in which the hedged transactions affected earnings.

As discussed in the previous section of this MD&A titled “Walden University Acquisition,” on August 12, 2021, Adtalem acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interest in Walden, in exchange for a purchase price of $1.5 billion in cash. On March 1, 2021, we issued ~~$800~~$800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”), which mature on March 1, 2028. On August 12, 2021, Adtalem replaced the Prior Credit Facility and Prior Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 13 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements) by entering into its new credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for (1) a ~~$850~~$850.0 million senior secured term loan (“Term Loan B”) with a maturity date of August 12, 2028 and (2) a ~~$400~~$400.0 million senior secured revolving loan facility (“Revolver”) with a maturity date of August 12, 2026. We refer to the Term Loan B and Revolver collectively as the “Credit Facility.” The proceeds of the Notes and the Term Loan B were used, among other things, to finance the Acquisition, refinance Adtalem’s Prior Credit Agreement, and pay fees and expenses related to the Acquisition. The Revolver will be used to finance ongoing working capital and for general corporate purposes. During fiscal year 2022, we

made a prepayment of $396.7 million on the Term Loan B. With that prepayment, we are no longer required to make quarterly installment payments. On April 11, 2022, we repaid $373.3 million of Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes. During June 2022, we repurchased on the open market an additional $20.8 million of Notes at a price equal to approximately 90% of the principal amount of the Notes, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of $2.1 million recorded within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the year ended June 30, 2022. In July 2022, we repurchased an additional $0.9 million of Notes, on September 22, 2022, we made a prepayment of $100.0 million on the Term Loan B, and on November 22, 2022, we made a prepayment of $50.0 million on the Term Loan B. As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the amount of debt outstanding under the Notes and Credit Facility was ~~$1,650.0~~$708.3 million. See Note 13 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Notes and our Credit Agreement.

~~Management currently projects~~In the event of unexpected market conditions or negative economic changes, including those caused by COVID-19, that could negatively affect Adtalem’s earnings and/or operating cash flow, Adtalem maintains a $400.0 million revolving credit facility with availability of $400.0 million as of December 31, 2022. While COVID-19 will continue to have an effect on operations and, as a result, liquidity, ~~as discussed in the previous section of this MD&A titled “Overview of the Impact of COVID-19”; however,~~ we believe the current balances of cash, cash generated from operations, and our Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund both Adtalem’s current domestic and international operations and growth plans for the foreseeable future.

With the prepayment noted above, we are no longer required to make quarterly principal installment payments on the Term Loan B. In addition, we maintain a ~~$1,250~~$400.0 million revolving credit facility ~~which requires principal and interest payments.~~ Aswith availability of $400.0 million as of December 31, ~~2021, the amount of debt outstanding under the Notes and our Credit Facility~~ ~~was $1,650.0 million~~2022. . See Note 13 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our Notes and Credit Agreement.

Operating Lease Obligations – We have operating lease obligations for the minimum payments required under various lease agreements which are recorded on the Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet.~~Sheets. In addition, we sublease certain space to third parties, which partially offsets the lease obligations at these facilities. See Note 11 “Leases” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our lease agreements.

Seasonality

The seasonal pattern of Adtalem’s enrollments and its educational programs’ starting dates affect the ~~results of operations and the~~ timing of cash ~~flows. Therefore, management believes that comparisons~~flows with higher cash inflows at the beginning of ~~its results of operations should primarily be made to the corresponding period in the preceding year.~~academic terms. Comparisons of financial position should be made to both the end of the previous fiscal year and to the end of the corresponding quarterly period in the preceding year.

Critical Accounting ~~Policies and~~ Estimates

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting ~~policies and~~ estimates as disclosed in our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K. Although our current estimates contemplate current conditions, including, but not limited to, the impact of (i) the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, (ii) rising interest rates, and (iii) labor and material cost increases and shortages, and how we anticipate them to change in the future, as appropriate, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from what was anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations of future events based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact, which includes statements regarding the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ~~efficacy and distribution of the vaccines, the~~ expected synergies from the recent

Walden ~~acquisition, and the pending sale of the financial services segment including our anticipated net proceeds and whether the pending sale will be completed in the anticipated timeframe, if at all.~~acquisition. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as “future,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “can,” “continue,” “preliminary,” “range,” and similar terms. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the statements. These risks and uncertainties include the risk factors described in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which should be read in conjunction with the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are based on information available to us as of the date any such statements are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

We believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information regarding the underlying business trends and performance of Adtalem’s ongoing operations as seen through the eyes of management and are useful for period-over-period comparisons. We use these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally in our assessment of performance and budgeting process. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following are non-GAAP financial measures used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q:

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Net~~Adjusted net income ~~from continuing operations excluding special items~~ (most comparable GAAP measure: net income (loss) ~~attributable to Adtalem)~~) – Measure of Adtalem’s net income (loss) ~~attributable to Adtalem~~ adjusted for deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, business acquisition and integration expense, ~~Walden~~ intangible amortization expense, pre-acquisition interest expense, write-off of debt discount and issuance costs, gain on extinguishment of debt, investment impairment, and net (income) loss from discontinued ~~operations attributable to Adtalem.~~operations.

~~Earnings~~Adjusted earnings per share ~~from continuing operations excluding special items~~ (most comparable GAAP measure: earnings (loss) per share) – Measure of Adtalem’s diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusted for deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, business acquisition and integration expense, ~~Walden~~ intangible amortization expense, pre-acquisition interest expense, write-off of debt discount and issuance costs, gain on extinguishment of debt, investment impairment, and net (income) loss from discontinued ~~operations attributable to Adtalem.~~operations.

~~Operating~~Adjusted operating income ~~excluding special items~~ (most comparable GAAP measure: operating income) – Measure of Adtalem’s operating income adjusted for deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, business acquisition and integration expense, and ~~Walden~~ intangible amortization expense. This measure is applied on a consolidated and segment basis, depending on the context of the discussion.

Adjusted EBITDA (most comparable GAAP measure: net income (loss)) – Measure of Adtalem’s net income (loss) adjusted for net (income) loss from discontinued operations, interest expense, other expense (income), net, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, and business acquisition and integration expense. This measure is applied on a consolidated and segment basis, depending on the context of the discussion. Income taxes, interest expense, and other expense (income), net is not recorded at the reportable segments, and therefore, the segment adjusted EBITDA reconciliations begin with operating income.

A description of special items in our non-GAAP financial measures described above are as follows:

●

Deferred revenue adjustment related to a revenue purchase accounting adjustment to record Walden’s deferred revenue at fair value.

●

CEO transition costs related to acceleration of stock-based compensation expense.

●

Restructuring expense primarily related to plans to achieve synergies with the Walden acquisition and real estate consolidations at Walden, Medical and Veterinary, and Adtalem’s home office.

●

Business acquisition and integration expense include expenses related to the Walden ~~acquisition.~~acquisition and certain costs related to growth transformation initiatives.

●

~~Walden~~Intangible amortization expense on acquired intangible assets.

●

Pre-acquisition interest expense related to financing arrangements in connection with the Walden ~~acquisition.~~acquisition, write-off of debt discount and issuance costs and gain on extinguishment of debt related to prepayments of debt, and impairment of an equity investment.

Table of Contents

●

~~Loss~~Net (income) loss from discontinued operations ~~attributable to Adtalem~~ includes the operations of ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine, in addition to costs related to DeVry University.

The following tables provide a reconciliation from the most directly comparable GAAP measure to these non-GAAP financial measures. The operating income reconciliation is included in the results of operations section within this MD&A.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The interest rate on Adtalem’s Term Loan B is based upon LIBOR for eurocurrency rate loans or an alternative base rate for periods typically ranging from one to three months. As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, Adtalem had ~~$850.0~~$303.3 million in outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan B with an interest rate of ~~5.25%~~8.39%. Based upon borrowings of ~~$850.0~~$303.3 million, a 100 basis point increase in short-term interest rates would result in $3.0million of additional annual interest expense.

Table of Contents

Interest on our Credit Facility is set based on LIBOR, which is based on observable market transactions. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced that no new contracts referencing LIBOR are allowed. In addition, publication of one-week and two-month LIBOR rates ceased on December 31, 2021; however, all other LIBOR tenors will be published through June 30, 2023. ~~Various parties, including government agencies, are seeking to identify an alternative rate to replace LIBOR. Management is monitoring their efforts.~~ The Credit Agreement provides guidance surrounding the implementation of a replacement benchmark rate, however the specific replacement benchmark rate has not been identified. We expect to amend the Credit Agreement during fiscal year 2023 to transition from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).

There have been no other material changes in Adtalem’s market risk exposure during the first six months of fiscal year ~~2022.~~2023. For a discussion of Adtalem’s exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” contained in Adtalem’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of Adtalem’s management, Adtalem’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that Adtalem’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were effective as of December 31, ~~2021~~2022 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Adtalem in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to Adtalem’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

~~During~~There were no changes during the ~~first six months~~second quarter of fiscal year 2022, Adtalem completed its acquisition of Walden on August 12, 2021 (the “Acquired Company”). See Note 3 “Acquisitions” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I. Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the acquisition and related financial data. Adtalem is currently in the process of integrating the Acquired Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Except for the inclusion of the Acquired Company, there has been no change2023 in our internal control over financial reporting that ~~occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 that has~~have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For information regarding legal proceedings, including developments in legal proceedings, see Note 19 “Commitments and Contingencies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1. “Financial ~~Statements.~~Statements,” which is incorporated herein by this reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~In addition to~~There have been no material changes from the ~~other information set forth~~risk factors previously disclosed in ~~this report, the factors discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in Adtalem’s~~our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, which could materially affect Adtalem’s business, financial condition, or future results, should be carefully considered. Such risks are not the only risks facing Adtalem. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to Adtalem or that management currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, and/or operating results. Except for the risk factor discussed below, there have been no material changes to Adtalem’s risk factors since its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

~~A delayed or unsuccessful sale of ACAMS, Becker, and OCL could have a material adverse effect on the stock valuation of Adtalem or may impact the growth prospects or financial resources of Adtalem.~~

Adtalem has entered into a binding equity purchase agreement to sell its ACAMS, Becker, and OCL entities to Wendel Group and Colibri Group (“Purchaser”) (the “Transaction”). Adtalem’s transfer of ownership to the Purchaser is subject to certain closing conditions. There is no assurance that the conditions to closing will be satisfied in a timely manner or at all. If the Transaction is not completed, the valuation of Adtalem common stock may materially and adversely decline.2022.

On March 1, 2022, we announced that the Board authorized Adtalem’s thirteenth share repurchase program, which allows Adtalem to repurchase up to $300.0 million of its common stock through February 25, 2025. The timing and amount of any future repurchases will be determined based on an evaluation of market conditions and other factors. On March 14, 2022, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement to repurchase $150.0 million of common stock under which 4,709,576 shares were initially delivered. The ASR agreement ended on October 14, 2022. Based on the volume-weighted average price of Adtalem’s common stock during the term of the ASR agreement, Adtalem owed the counter party 332,212 shares of common stock. We elected to settle the contract in cash instead of delivering shares as allowed under the terms of the ASR agreement by making a cash payment of $13.2 million on November 2, 2022. See Note 15 “Share Repurchases” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our share repurchase programs, including the ASR agreement.
