Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 11: INCOME TAXES The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was 20.0% in the second quarter and 19.1% in the first six months of fiscal year 2019, compared to 202.0% on income from continuing operations in the second quarter and 141.2% in the first six months of fiscal year 2018. Tax expense in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 included a special item related to one-time impacts from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) and various impacts due to the sale of DeVry University. The effective tax rates on income from continuing operations excluding tax expense related to special items were 17.7% in the second quarter and 16.5% in the first six months of fiscal year 2019. Also, tax expense in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018 included a special item of $101.2 million related to the Tax Act. The effective tax rates on income from continuing operations excluding special items were 15.6% in the second quarter and 15.0% in the first six months of fiscal year 2018. This increase in fiscal year 2019 primarily reflects a lower U.S. tax rate resulting from the Tax Act offset by higher additional expense from provisions of the Tax Act that were effective beginning in fiscal year 2019 and a decrease in the percentage of earnings from foreign operations, which are taxed at lower rates than domestic earnings. The provisions from the Tax Act impacting fiscal year 2019 include a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), a deduction for foreign derived intangible income (“FDII”), a limitation of certain executive compensation, and the repeal of the domestic production activity deduction. We have elected to account for GILTI as a period cost. The effective tax rate includes estimates of these new provisions. Our estimates may be revised in future periods as we obtain additional data and any new regulations or guidance is released. Four of Adtalem’s operating units, AUC, which operates in St. Maarten, RUSM, which operated in Dominica, RUSVM, which operates in St. Kitts, and Adtalem Brazil, which operates in Brazil, all benefit from local tax incentives. 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. Both of these agreements have been extended to provide, in the case of RUSM, an indefinite period of exemption and, in the case of RUSVM, exemption until 2037. On August 3, 2018, Adtalem announced plans to permanently relocate RUSM from Dominica to Barbados. RUSM has negotiated an agreement with the Barbados government that exempts it from local income taxation until 2039. Adtalem Brazil’s effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from its participation in “Programa Universidade para Todos” or “University for All Program” (“PROUNI”), a Brazilian program for providing scholarships to a portion of its undergraduate students. Adtalem has completed its accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Tax Act. The SEC has issued rules that allowed for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the legislation to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. As that period has now ended, we have finalized the calculations of the Tax Act’s impacts previously recorded in the second and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2018 with an immaterial adjustment in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019.
