7. Income Taxes

Our income tax benefits from continuing operations were $8.1 million and $38.9 million in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, and our income tax expenses from continuing operations were $4.6 million and $12.4 million in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. The income tax benefits in fiscal year 2022 and the income tax expenses in fiscal year 2021 reflect the U.S. federal tax rate of 21% adjusted for state and local taxes, foreign rate differences, benefits associated with local tax incentives, changes in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and tax benefits on stock-based compensation awards. The increase in the fiscal year 2022 income tax provision benefit is the result of the losses incurred in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and a catch-up tax benefit recorded in the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2022 due to the change in the full year effective tax rate after reflecting discontinued operations treatment for the Financial Services segment.

Three of Adtalem’s operating units benefit from local tax incentives: AUC, which operates in St. Maarten, RUSM, which operates in Barbados, and RUSVM, which operates in St. Kitts. 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. RUSM has an exemption in Barbados until 2039. RUSVM has an exemption in St. Kitts until 2037.

On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the “Rescue Act”) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Rescue Act, among other things, expands the number of employees subject to the tax deductibility limitation of employee compensation in excess of $1 million for tax years beginning after December 31, 2026 and repeals the election for U.S. affiliated groups to allocate interest expense on a worldwide basis. Management does not expect that the other provisions of the Rescue Act would result in a material tax or cash detriment.
