DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

NOTE 2: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

On December 4, 2018, Adtalem completed the sale of Carrington to San Joaquin Valley College, Inc. (“SJVC”) for de minimis consideration. As the sale represented a strategic shift that has a major effect on Adtalem’s operations and financial results, Carrington is presented in Adtalem’s financial reporting as a discontinued operation. Adtalem has retained certain leases associated with the Carrington operations. Adtalem remains the primary lessee on these leases and subleases to Carrington. Adtalem records the proceeds from these subleases as an offset to operating costs. Adtalem also assigned certain leases to Carrington but remains contingently liable under these leases. Adtalem recorded a pre-tax loss of $11.3 million on the sale of Carrington and transferred $9.9 million of cash and restricted cash balances to Carrington in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, subject to post-closing adjustments to be completed in fiscal year 2020.

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 has a major effect on Adtalem’s operations and financial results, DeVry University is presented in Adtalem’s financial reporting as a discontinued operation. The purchase agreement includes an earn-out entitling Adtalem to payments of up to $20 million over a ten-year period payable based on DeVry University’s free cash flow. 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 “Note”). The Note bears interest at a rate of 4% per annum, payable annually in arrears and has a maturity date of January 1, 2022. DeVry University may make prepayments on the Note. This loan is presented as Other Assets, Net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. 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. 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. Adtalem recorded a pre-tax loss of $22.3 million on the sale of DeVry University and transferred $40.2 million of cash and restricted cash balances to DeVry University in fiscal year 2019.

On October 18, 2019, Adtalem entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with Estácio Participações S.A. (“Estácio”) and Sociedade de Ensino Superior Estaćio de Sá Ltda, a wholly owned subsidiary of Estácio (“Purchaser”). Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, Adtalem will sell all of the issued and outstanding shares of Adtalem Brasil Holding S.A. (a/k/a Adtalem Brazil) to the Purchaser for approximately $465 million in cash. In addition, Adtalem expects to receive approximately $74 million in settlement of cash balances as of June 30, 2019 of $89 million, net of indebtedness of $15 million, resulting in total proceeds of $539 million. This transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of fiscal year 2021. This sale advances Adtalem’s strategy to become a leading workforce solutions provider in the medical and healthcare and financial services industries, aligning Adtalem’s portfolio to better address the global workforce skills gap and serve its markets in a more competitive and comprehensive way. As the potential sale represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on Adtalem’s operations and financial results, Adtalem Brazil is presented in Adtalem’s financial reporting as a discontinued operation. All prior periods presented disclose Adtalem Brazil’s assets and liabilities as held for sale, and operations and cash flows of Adtalem Brazil, which were previously included as the only component of the Business and Law reportable segment, as discontinued operations. In connection with the announced proposed sale of Adtalem Brazil, Adtalem entered into certain deal contingent foreign exchange forward contracts to economically hedge the Brazilian Real denominated purchase price through mitigation of the currency exchange rate risk. Management does not expect this contract to qualify for hedge accounting treatment under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, and as a result, all changes in fair value will be recorded to the income statement.

The following is a summary of balance sheet information of assets and liabilities reported as held for sale (in thousands).
