Restructuring Charges

6. Restructuring Charges

During the first quarter 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 first quarter 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):
