We remain uniquely positioned through our high-quality institutions to produce highly trained, practice-ready healthcare professionals while driving superior student outcomes.”

Segment Highlights
Chamberlain
First quarter segment revenue was relatively flat compared with the prior year, at $135.4 million, and segment operating income increased 25.6% to $26.2 million primarily due to lower labor from continued cost reduction initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $33.8 million or by 25.1% compared with the prior year.
Total student enrollment decreased 4.0% compared with the prior year, primarily attributable to COVID-related headwinds in Chamberlain’s post-licensure programs, partially offset by continued improvement in enrollment in pre-licensure programs.
Walden
Revenue in the first quarter increased to $130.9 million from $68.6 million in the prior year due to the timing of the Walden acquisition. Segment operating income was $1.8 million, and adjusted segment operating income was $23.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $27.9 million or 107.7% higher compared with the prior year, driven by the timing of the acquisition.
Total student enrollment decreased 9.2% compared with the prior year, which was primarily attributable to COVID-related headwinds in Walden’s post-licensure nursing programs and declines in the management and technology programs, while the social and behavioral science programs – on a relative basis – continued to perform well.
Medical and Veterinary
Revenue in the first quarter increased 4.1% to $88.3 million compared with the prior year. Segment operating income of $10.5 million decreased by 32.8% compared with the prior year. Adjusted segment operating income was $17.4 million, an increase of 10.8% compared with the prior year, driven primarily by the increase in revenue. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $21.9 million or by 9.4% compared with the prior year.
Total student enrollment increased 3.4% compared with the prior year, due to growth in new student enrollment and higher persistence.
Adtalem Outlook
Adtalem reaffirmed its guidance of fiscal year 2023 revenue to be within the range of $1,380 million and $1,450 million, and adjusted earnings per share to be within the range of $3.95 to $4.20.

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 the subsequent GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation tables:
Adjusted net income (most comparable GAAP measure: net income (loss)) – Measure of Adtalem’s net income (loss) adjusted for deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, business acquisition and integration expense, intangible amortization expense, pre-acquisition interest expense, write-off of debt discount and issuance costs, gain on extinguishment of debt, and net loss (income) from discontinued operations.
Adjusted earnings per share (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, intangible amortization expense, pre-acquisition interest expense, write-off of debt discount and issuance costs, gain on extinguishment of debt, and net loss (income) from discontinued operations.
Adjusted operating income (most comparable GAAP measure: operating income (loss)) – Measure of Adtalem’s operating income (loss) adjusted for deferred revenue adjustment, CEO transition costs, restructuring expense, business acquisition and integration expense, and 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 loss (income) from discontinued operations, net other expense, provision for 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 and net other expense is not recorded at the reportable segments, and therefore, the segment adjusted EBITDA reconciliations begin with operating income (loss).
Free cash flow (most comparable GAAP measure: net cash provided by operating activities-continuing operations) – Defined as net cash provided by operating activities-continuing operations less capital expenditures.
Net debt – Defined as long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents.
Net leverage – Defined as net debt divided by adjusted EBITDA.
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,<br> Medical and Veterinary, and Adtalem’s home office. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Business acquisition and integration expense include expenses related to the Walden acquisition and growth transformation initiatives. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Intangible amortization expense on acquired intangible assets. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Pre-acquisition interest expense, write-off of debt discount and issuance costs, and gain on extinguishment of debt related to financing<br> arrangements in connection with the Walden acquisition and prepayment of debt. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Net loss (income) from discontinued operations includes the operations of ACAMS, Becker, OCL, and EduPristine, in addition to costs related to<br> DeVry University. |
