Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	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. 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 included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021 was $17.0 million, $17.8 million, and $20.5 million, respectively. These investments are recorded at fair value based upon quoted market prices using Level 1 inputs. The fair value of the credit extension programs, which approximates its carrying value, included in accounts receivable, net and other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021 of $27.8 million, $27.5 million, and $28.7 million, respectively, is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates for similar arrangements and is classified as Level 2. See Note 9 “Accounts Receivable and Credit Losses” for additional information on these credit extension programs. In connection with the sale of DeVry University, Adtalem loaned $10.0 million to DeVry University under the terms of the DeVry Note. The DeVry Note bore interest at a rate of 4% per annum, payable annually in arrears, and had a maturity date of January 1, 2022. We received the loan repayment of $10.0 million during the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. The fair value of the DeVry Note approximated its carrying value of $10.0 million as of September 30, 2021. The carrying value is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2021. Fair value was estimated by discounting the future cash flows using an average of current rates for similar arrangements, which was estimated at 4% per annum and is classified as Level 2. 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 September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021 is $44.3 million, $44.0 million, and $43.0 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 included in accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021 were $15.3 million, $16.3 million, and $20.7 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 September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, borrowings under our long-term debt agreements were $758.3 million, $859.2 million, and $1,650.0 million, respectively. The fair value of the Notes was $361.7 million as of September 30, 2022, which is based upon quoted market prices and is classified as Level 1. The fair value of the Term Loan B was $350.0 million as of September 30, 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. As of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, there were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. 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, 2022. See Note 12 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” for additional information on the impairment review, including valuation techniques and assumptions.
