Population trends

The total postsecondary student population can be thought of as two categories of students: career-launchers, who are primarily traditional college-age students; and career-enhancers, who are primarily working adults.


According to the U.S. Department of Education, between 19972000 and 2007,2010, the latest period for which data are available, enrollment in degree grantingdegree-granting institutions increased by 26%37%, from 14.515.3 million to 18.221.0 million. Much of the enrollment growth was in full-time enrollment; the number of full-time students rose 34%45%, while the number of part-time students grew 15%26%. Enrollment increases may be affected both by population growth and by rising rates of individuals inspired to attend college. Between 19972000 and 2007,2010, the number of 18- to 24-year olds increased from 25.527.3 million to 29.530.7 million, and the percentage of 18- to 24-year olds enrolled in college rose from 37%35% in 19972000 to 39%41% in 2007.


The number of young students has been growing more rapidly than2010.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics (“NCES”), in recent years the percentage increase in the number of older students butage 25 and over has been larger than the percentage increase in the number of younger students, and this pattern is expected to change.  The U.S. Department of Education estimates that between 1995continue. Between 2000 and 20062010, the enrollment of students under age 25 increased by 33%34%. Enrollment of personsstudents 25 and olderover rose by 13%42% during the same period. From 20062010 to 2017, the National Center for Education Statistics (“NCES”)2020, NCES projects a rise of 10%11% in enrollments of personsstudents under age 25, and a rise of 19%20% in enrollments of personsstudents 25 and older.over. Many external forces have combined to inspire older students to attend college today: the development of thetoday’s knowledge-based economy; the rapid pace of technological change in the workplace; the emergence of e-learning tools that make continuing education more feasible; and a growing recognition of the importance of lifelong learning.

The NCES estimates that in 20072011 approximately 37.6%41.7% of all college students were at least 25 years old. DeVry believes that moreMore than half of ourDeVry University’s undergraduate students are at least 25 years old.  More significantly, at DeVry University online and DeVry University centers, which are designed for the adult student and have been the fastest growing portion of our operations, nearly 80% of DeVry University’s students are age 25 or older. Projections indicate that the percentage of this age group attending college will remain constant at approximatelyabove 40% until 2014.2020. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that through 2010, job categories requiring at least some postsecondary education (primarily bachelor’s and associate degrees) will grow nearly twice as fast as those not requiring such education.


Another strong motivation for students considering a postsecondary education is the prospective income premium. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2007,2009 (the most recent date for which data are available), the average income of U.S. employees with a bachelor’s degree was approximately $47,240$56,665 which was nearly 67%85% higher than the average for those with only a high school education. The wage gap is even larger for those with graduate degrees.


While the overall postsecondary student population continues to expand, DeVry University is experiencing declining enrollments. Management believes the decreases in enrollments are driven primarily by the negative impact on student decision making of the prolonged economic downturn and persistent unemployment, resulting in a reduction of interest from potential students. In addition, management believes a short-term distraction of DeVry University employees associated with the implementation of new regulations in July 2011, along with heightened competition also is contributing to the decreases in enrollments.

DeVry University’s student body is increasingly diverse and many come from lower income families, or are the first in their family to attend college. Some DeVry University campuses rank near the top of the list of institutions in the number of degrees granted to minority students in the fields of computer and information science, business, and all academic disciplines combined. In particular, DeVry University continues to be ranked among the top producers in the country of minority graduates earning bachelor’s degrees in the fields of computer and information sciences (CIS), and business, marketing and management by Diverse Issues in Higher Education (June 2009).

Ross University

Ross University

DeVry’s Medical and Healthcare segment includes DeVry Medical International, Chamberlain College of Nursing, and Carrington Colleges Group. Under the leadership of the president of DeVry’s Medical and Healthcare Group, a management team works with each of the institutions in this segment.

DeVry Medical International

DeVry Medical International operates two schools: three institutions:

Ross University School of Medicine confers the Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree, and degree;

Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine confers the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M.) degree; and

American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine confers the Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree.

Together, the two Rossthree schools had 4,4485,944 students enrolled in the May 20092012 semester. Over 7,000

Ross University School of Medicine

Since 1978, Ross University School of Medicine has been providing high quality medical education to prospective physicians. Ross University School of Medicine has graduated over 9,200 physicians during its three decades of service, and these graduates have receivedpractice medicine in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. The mission of Ross M.D. degrees since 1978; these individuals are practicing in all 50 states. More than 2,300 graduates have receivedUniversity School of Medicine is to prepare highly dedicated students to become effective, successful physicians. Ross D.V.M. degrees.


University School of Medicine accomplishes this by focusing on imparting the knowledge, skills, and values required for its students to establish a successful and satisfying career as a physician.

Ross medical students complete a four-semester (approximately 16 months) basic science and pre-clinicalFoundations of Medicine curriculum in modern classrooms and laboratories at a campus located in Dominica and at a newly opened clinical facility in Freeport, Grand Bahama.Dominica. The four semesters are followed by a one-semester course entitled Advanced Introduction to Clinical Medicine at the Dominica campus, the Ross clinical location in Miami or at an affiliated hospital facility in Saginaw, Michigan. After students successfully complete Step 1 of the U.S. Medical Licensing Examinationtm, which assesses whether medical school students understand and can apply scientific concepts that are basic to the practice of medicine, they can complete the remainder of the 10-semester program by participating in clinical rotations under Ross University direction, and conducted at nearly 7075 affiliated teaching hospitals or medical centers affiliated with accredited medical education programs in the United States.


In January 2009, Ross University School of Medicine began teaching courses at its newly opened clinical center in Freeport, Grand Bahama.    The Ross Dominica campus continues to maintain its position as the

Ross’ medical school’s primary campus. All students in the medical school currently begin their training in Dominica, with a portion of third and fourth semester students taking clinical classes in Freeport.  The Ross University Freeport clinical center, located 52 miles from Fort Lauderdale, will grow to accommodate the future expansion needs of Ross University’s medical program, as well as potentially adding other degree programs. The Freeport clinical center currently has 21 faculty members and will add more as enrollment increases.  Depending upon the pace of development, capital expenditures related to opening the branch campus, including land, buildings and equipment, are expected to be in the range of $35-$60 million over the next several years.


Ross’ educational program is highly similarcomparable to the educational programs typically offered at U.S. medical schools.  However, Ross’ program consists of three academic semesters per year — beginning in January, May September, and JanuarySeptember — which allows the medical students to complete their basic science and clinical curriculuminstruction in less time than they would at a U.S. medical school. The program prepares students for general medical practice and provides the foundation for postgraduate specialty training, which is primarily received in the United States.


Since its founding in 1982, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine has graduated more than 2,900 veterinarians. The mission of Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine is to prepare highly dedicated students to become effective, successful veterinarians in the United States.

Ross veterinary students complete a seven-semester pre-clinical curriculum in a large modern facilitytechnologically advanced campus in St. Kitts. This program is structured to provide a veterinary education that is comparable to traditional educational programs at U.S. veterinary schools. After completing their pre-clinical curriculum, Ross veterinary students enter a clinical clerkship lasting approximately 48 weeks under Ross University direction at one of 2122 affiliated U.S. Colleges of Veterinary Medicine. At both the Medical and Veterinary schools, there is an academic trend that is introducing students are introduced to clinical experiences and clinical skills earlierearly in their respective curriculums.


American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine

On August 3, 2011, DeVry acquired the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (“AUC”) which was founded in 1978. AUC confers the Doctor of Medicine degree and its campus is located in the country of St. Maarten. Over 4,500 graduates have received AUC M.D. degrees and are licensed and practicing medicine throughout the world.

AUC medical students complete a two-year basic sciences program taught at AUC’s St. Maarten campus, followed by two years of clinical sciences taught at affiliated hospitals in the United States and England. AUC’s educational program is comparable to the educational programs offered at U.S. medical schools.

The acquisition of AUC was consistent with DeVry’s growth and diversification strategy, increasing its presence in high quality medical and healthcare education and expanding its academic offerings at the post-baccalaureate level. DeVry was attracted to AUC because of its highly regarded faculty, commitment to academic excellence, and an accomplished network of alumni. In addition, AUC has strong partnerships with residency placement hospitals across the United States.

COMPETITION

DeVry University


The postsecondary education market is highly fragmented and competitive; no single institution has a significant market share. According to the NCES, there were approximately 6,5507,234 Title IV eligible postsecondary institutions in the United States as of the 2007-082011-12 academic year, including approximately 2,7303,393 private, for-profit (“market-funded”private-sector”) schools; approximately 2,0002,011 public schools (“publicly-funded” e.g.(e.g. state institutions and community colleges); and approximately 1,8201,830 private, not-for-profit (“privately-funded”independent”) schools. According to the NCES, in 20072010 approximately 18.221.0 million students were attending degree-granting institutions that participate in the various financial aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act.


IV.

In every market in which DeVry University operates, there are numerous state institutions, community colleges, and privately-fundedindependent universities. In particular, there is growing competitive pressure from community colleges, traditional universities, and technical colleges that offer industry-specific certification programs, particularly in the computer information field.   In addition, there is growing competition from online programs (by market-funded,by private-sector, publicly-funded and privately-funded institutions)independent institutions and site-based market-fundedprivate-sector school programs.


Tuition at independent privately-funded institutions is, on average, higher than the tuition at DeVry University. Publicly-supported colleges may offer similar programs at a lower tuition level because of government subsidies, tax-deductible contributions, and other financial sources not available to market-fundedprivate-sector schools. In fact, many local community colleges offer programs similar in content to DeVry University’s associate degree programs, but at a much lower tuition. While community college enrollments have grown significantly in recent years and these institutionscolleges may be viewed as competitors, they also provide DeVry University an opportunity: it has a number of articulation and transfer agreements in place with community colleges that make it easier for their graduates to continue their education to earn a bachelor’s degree at DeVry University.

Small class sizes.


In recent years, DeVry has increased its competitiveness by enhancing several of the undergraduate programs, expanding DeVry University online offerings, and adding DeVry University centers. As a result, we offer more locations, and more flexible class schedules and learning formats, than most other educational institutions. Undergraduate classes at DeVry University campuses generally are offered in morning, afternoonday and evening sessions, which helphelps students maintain part-time or full-time jobs. Undergraduate classes at DeVry University centers generally are offered in the evening for the convenience of predominantly working adult students, but daytime classes are offered at centers in markets where there is deemed to be sufficient demand.


Graduate Programs


DeVry University’s competitive strengths in the market for graduate programs include:

A practitioner approach to education that stresses skills that employers value;


A high level of service to the adult student, including flexible schedules and locations that are convenient to where many students work;

·Convenience of more than 80 onsite teaching locations in major metropolitan areas nationwide and online; and
·Flexible schedules with six sessions each year that enable new students to start their program any time of the year and continuing students to take a session off, if necessary, to accommodate their schedules.

Graduate programs, both onsite and online, are offered in six, eight-week sessions each year. Classroom-based courses generally meet once a week, either in the evening or on Saturday, for the convenience of students with heavy travel, work schedules or other demands on their time.


As the market for adult education programs has expanded in recent years, other schools have implemented multi-location evening and weekend programs. Enrollments in DeVry University’s graduate programs continue to increase, demonstrating the recognition it has earned as an innovator in providing high quality practical education.

Ross University competesSchool of Medicine and American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine compete with the 131138 accredited U.S. schools of medicine, 2526 U.S. colleges of osteopathic medicine, and approximately 30 Caribbean medical schools. In the veterinary education market, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine competes with AVMA accredited schools, of which 28 are U.S., five are Canadian and eightnine are international veterinary schools. In addition, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine competes with two non-AVMA accredited Caribbean veterinary schools.


Ross University attracts

DeVry Medical International’s educational institutions attract potential students for several reasons. For some, Ross isthese respective institutions are their first or only choice of schools because of its commitment to and focus on practitioner-oriented teaching. Others applied to U.S.-based medical or veterinary schools but were not admitted or were wait-listed. Some students elected not to apply to U.S. schools because of self-perceived deficiencies in their academic record or standardized test scores.


For 2008,the 2011-12 academic year, it is estimated that applications to U.S. medical and veterinary medical schools aggregated over 42,000totaled approximately 44,000 and 6,000,7,000, respectively. From each of these separate applicant pools, approximately 45% and 47%, respectively, were accepted. An additional estimated 4,4005,750 students were accepted to U.S. osteopathic medical schools. Acceptance levels have remained largely unchanged for more than two decades, but have recently started to increase with the authorization or openingschools from an applicant pool of several new allopathic and osteopathic schools.

According to the Association of American Medical Colleges Center for Workforce Studies, June 2010 analysis, the demand for medical education is expected to increase over the next decadephysicians will outpace supply by approximately 30%, spurred12% in 2020 and by a physician supply/demand imbalance that is projected to grow. The capacity of U.S. medical schoolsalmost 17% by 2025. There has not changed materially in more than two decades.  However,been some recent expansion is likely in the U.S. medical education industry in the futureenrollment capacity because of the growing supply/demand imbalance for medical doctors. Management believes this imbalance will continue to spur demand for medical education. Management also believes the veterinary medical education market is subject to some of the same forces.



Compared to its market-fundedprivate-sector competitors, Ross University enjoysSchool of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine and American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine enjoy several competitive advantages, including a large alumni base and strong reputation, federal financial aid eligibility for its students, and itstheir historically large network of diverse geographical opportunities for clinical rotations.

DeVry University’s compensation practices have been designed to be in compliance with current regulations.



Many of DeVry University’s applicants are older working adults who want to attend class in the evening or on weekends, recently unemployed adults seeking to improve their job skills, and students transferring to a DeVry University undergraduate program from nearby colleges and universities. In addition, DeVry University has entered into articulation agreements with community colleges to facilitate the enrollment of their students seeking to transfer course credits to DeVry University. A growing numberlarge portion of new students enrolling in our undergraduate programs have some prior college experience. In addition, military veterans with military-specific technical training are attracted to DeVry University’s practical career-oriented education and extensive geographic reach.

ACCREDITATION


Educational institutions and their individual programs are awarded “accreditation” by achieving a level of quality that entitles them to the confidence of the educational community and the public they serve. Accredited institutions are subject to periodic review by accrediting bodies to ensure continued high performance and institutional and program improvement and integrity, and to confirm that accreditation requirements continue to be satisfied.


DeVry University


Regional accreditation in the United States is a voluntary process designed to promote educational quality and improvement, and is an important strength for DeVry University. Management believes regional accreditation offers DeVry University a significant advantage over most other market-funded colleges.Since 1981, DeVry University has been accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (“HLC”) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, which is one of the six regional collegiate accrediting agencies in the United States. College and university administrators depend on the accredited status of an institution when evaluating transfers of credit and applications to their schools; employers rely on the accredited status of an institution when evaluating a candidate’s credentials; and parents and high school counselors look to accreditation for assurance that an institution meets quality educational standards. Moreover, accreditation is necessary for students to qualify for federal financial assistance, and most scholarship commissions restrict their awards to students attending accredited institutions.


Keller Graduate School of Management was first awarded its North Central Association accreditation in 1977, and DeVry Institutes was first awarded North Central Association (now HLC) accreditation in 1981. Each school was separately accredited until February 2002, when the North Central Association approved the merger of DeVry Institutes and Keller Graduate School of Management into a single institution with the nameto form DeVry University. After a comprehensive evaluation visit in August 2002, the HLC approved a 10-year re-accreditation for DeVry University. The HLC further affirmed that DeVry University can offer, without restriction, any of its programs onsite, online, or through any combination of the two. In September 2008, DeVry University was accepted into the Academic Quality Improvement Program (AQIP) of the HLC, a seven year accreditation reaffirmation process based on creating a culture of continuous improvement, one of DeVry University’s key values.



In addition to regional accreditation, the baccalaureate electronics engineering technology programs at most of DeVry University’s U.S. locations are accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET (“TAC of ABET”), an accreditation board for applied science, computing, engineering, and technical educations. Baccalaureate computer engineering technology programs at several DeVry University U.S. locations are also accredited by TAC of ABET. The associate level electronics engineering technology program in North Brunswick, New Jersey is also TAC of ABET accredited.


The associate degree program in health information technology is offered online and at DeVry University locations in Atlanta, Chicago, Columbus, Dallas, Ft. Washington, Houston, and Southern California. These programs are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Health Informatics and Information Management Education. Additional DeVry campuses are in the process of applying for this accreditation for their programs.

The province of Alberta granted accreditation to DeVry Calgary to confer Bachelor of Technology degrees in 2001 and accreditation to confer Bachelor of Science degrees in 2006. DeVry Calgary is the first and only market-fundedprivate-sector institution in Canada to be provincially accredited to grant bachelor’s degrees. Through an arrangement with the Alberta Department of Advanced Education, the State of Arizona, and the HLC, the computer engineering technology and network and communications management curricula offered at DeVry Calgary fall under the accreditation of DeVry University (Arizona) as an offsite instructional location. The computer engineering technology and electronics engineering technology programs are accredited by the Canadian Technology Accreditation Board.

Students attending the Becker Professional Education review courses are not eligible for federal or state financial aid, but many receive partial or full tuition reimbursement from their employers.


The following table summarizes DeVry’s cash receipts from tuition payments by fund source as a percentage of total revenue for the fiscal years 20082011 and 2007,2010, respectively. Final data for fiscal year 2009 is2012 are not yet available.

DeVry University assists its undergraduate students in locating part-time employment to supplement their incomes and help finance their education. Data from the National Center for Education Statistics indicates that almost half of all full-time college students between the ages of 18 and 24 are employed, but we believe the employment rate among DeVry University full-time undergraduate students is higher.



All financial aid and assistance programs are subject to political and governmental budgetary considerations. In the United States, the Higher Education Act (“HEA”) guides the federal government’s support of postsecondary education. The HEA was last reauthorized by the United States Congress in July 2008, and was signed into law by the President in August 2008.


Information about Particular Government Financial Aid Programs


DeVry University, Ross University School of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Chamberlain College of Nursing, ApolloCarrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California students participate in many U.S. and Canadian financial aid programs. Each of these programs is briefly described below.


United States federal financial aid programs


Students in the United States rely on three types of U.S. Department of Education student financial aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act.


1. Grants. DeVry University and Chamberlain College of Nursing undergraduate, ApolloCarrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California students may participate in the Federal Pell Grant and Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant and the Academic Competitiveness Grant programs.  Additionally, certain DeVry University undergraduate students may participate in the National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (“SMART”) Grant program.


 ·

Federal Pell grants. These funds do not have to be repaid and are available to all eligible undergraduate students who demonstrate financial need doand who have not have to be repaid.already received a baccalaureate degree. For the 2009-20102012-2013 school year, eligible students can receive Federal Pell grants ranging from $976$555 to $5,350.  Students attending school year-round may receive two Pell grants.  The maximum Pell funding a DeVry student may receive for one calendar year is $8,025.$5,550.


 ·

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (“FSEOG”). This is a supplement to the Federal Pell grant, and is only available to the neediest undergraduate students. Federal rules restrict the amount of FSEOG funds that may go to a single institution. The maximum individual FSEOG award is established by the institution but cannot exceed $4,000 per academic year, and educationalyear. Educational institutions are required to supplement that amount with a 25% matching contribution. Institutional matching contributions may be satisfied, in whole or in part, by state grants, scholarship funds (discussed below) or by externally provided scholarship grants.


·
National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant (“SMART”).  Most of DeVry University’s undergraduate programs qualify as an eligible program of study.  The awards are restricted to Pell-eligible juniors and seniors who achieve and maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average.  The awards are $4,000 per academic year.

·
Academic Competitiveness Grant (“ACG”).  The awards are restricted to Pell-eligible students in their first or second year of post-secondary degree-seeking studies who have completed a rigorous secondary course of study.  Rigorous courses of study are defined by state education authorities.  Award amounts are $750 for students in their first year of study and $1,300 for students in their second year of study.  Students in their second year of study must have attained a 3.0 cumulative grade point average.

2. Loans. DeVry University, Ross University School of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Chamberlain College of Nursing, ApolloCarrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California students may participate in the Stafford and PLUS programs within the Federal Family Education Loan Program (“FFELP”) and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Student Loan Program. DeVry University undergraduate students may also participate in the Federal Perkins Student Loan Program.


 ·

Subsidized Stafford loan:awarded on the basis of student financial need, it is a low-interest loan (a portion of the interest is subsidized by the Federal government) available to undergraduate students with interest charges and principal repayment deferred until six months after a student no longer attends school on at least a half-time basis.basis (the student is responsible for paying the interest charges during the six months after no longer attending school on at least a half-time basis for those loans with a first disbursement between July 1, 2012 and July 1, 2014). Loan limits per academic year range from $3,500 for students in their first academic year to $5,500 for students in their third or higher undergraduate academic year and increasing to $8,500 per academic year for graduate students.year.


 ·

Unsubsidized Stafford loan: awarded to students who do not meet the needs test or as an additional supplement to the subsidized Stafford loan for independent students.loan. These loans incur interest from the time funds are disbursed, but actual principal and interest payments may be deferred until six months after a student no longer attends school on at least a half-time basis. Unsubsidized loan limits per academic year range from $6,000 for students in their first and second academic year to $7,000 in later years and increasing to $12,000$20,500 per academic year for graduate and professional program students. Additionally, a student without financial need may borrow an additional amount of unsubsidized loans up to the limit of the subsidized Stafford loan at their respective academic grade level. The total Stafford Loan aggregate borrowing limit for undergraduate students is $57,500 and $138,500 for graduate students, which is $20,500 per academic year, with a $138,500 Stafford Loan aggregate borrowing limit that includesinclusive of Stafford Loan amounts borrowed as an undergraduate. Of the $20,500 in academic year borrowings, no more than $8,500 may be in subsidized loans.



 ·

PLUS loan:and Grad PLUS loans: enables a graduate student or parents of a dependent undergraduate student to borrow additional funds to meet the cost of the student’s education. These loans are not based on financial need, nor are they subsidized. Interest begins to accrue, and repayment obligations begin, immediately after the loan is fully disbursed.disbursed, but may be deferred until a student no longer attends school on at least a half-time basis. Graduate students and parents may also borrow funds through the Federal Graduate PLUS program up to the cost of attendance which includes allowances for tuition, fees and living expenses. Both PLUS and Grad PLUS are subject to credit approval, which generally requires the borrower to be free of any current adverse credit conditions. A co-borrower may be used to meet the credit requirements.


 ·

Federal Perkins loan: is a low-interest loan available only to those students who demonstrate exceptional financial need.need with interest and principle repayment deferred until nine months after a student no longer attends school on at least a half-time basis. The maximum Federal Perkins loans are available up to a maximum ofLoan amount is established by the institution, but cannot exceed $5,500 per award year. Ongoing funding for this program is provided from collections on loans issued in previous years. When students repay principal and interest on these loans, that money goes to the pool of funds available for future loans to students at the same institution.


3. Federal work-study.Work-study. This program offers work opportunities, both on or off campus, on a part-time basis to undergraduate students who demonstrate financial need. Federal Work-study wages are paid partly from federal funds and partly from qualified employer funds.


A U.S. Department of Education regulation known as the “90/10 Rule” affects only proprietary postsecondary institutions, such as DeVry University, Ross University andSchool of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Chamberlain ApolloCollege of Nursing, Carrington College and Western Career College.Carrington College California. Under this regulation, an institution that derives more than 90% of its revenues on a cash basis from federal Title IV student financial assistance programs in any yearfor two successive years may notlose its eligibility to participate in these programs for the following year.Title IV programs. The following table details the percentpercentage of revenue from federalTitle IV student financial assistance programs for each of DeVry’s Title IV eligible institutions for fiscal years 20082011 and 2007,2010, respectively. Final data for fiscal 2009 isyear 2012 are not yet available.

DeVry University’s percent of revenue from federal financial assistance programs increased in fiscal year 2008 as compared to fiscal year 2007 primarily due to increased loan and grant limits. Chamberlain College of Nursing’s percent of revenue from federal financial assistance programs decreased in fiscal year 2008 as compared to fiscal year 2007 primarily due to an increase of students in the RN-to-BSN completion program who receive employer reimbursement or are self-pay students.

students attending DeVry institutions. In fiscal year 2013, new students at DeVry University, Carrington College and Carrington College of California will no longer be eligible to receive state grant or loan assistance from California.

Private Loan Programs


Some DeVry University, Chamberlain College of Nursing, Ross University, ApolloCarrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California students rely on private (nonfederal) loan programs for financial assistance. These programs are used to finance the gap between a student’s educational and living costs and their financial aid awards. The amount of the typical loan varies significantly according to the student’s enrollment and financial aid awards. DeVry estimates that approximately one-half of the borrowings under private loan programs are used by students to pay for non-educational expenses, such as room and board.



Prior to 2006, Ross University students relied heavily on private loan programs to meet the gap between tuition and Stafford loan eligibility as well as to meet living costs.  Legislation enacted in February 2006 expanded the parent loan program (PLUS) eligibility to graduate students.  This lower-cost, non-credit based program is now used in place of private loan programs for most U.S. citizens and permanent residents.

Most private loans are approved using the studentstudent’s or co-borrower’s credit history. The cost of these loans varies, but in almost all cases will be more costly than the federal programs. The application process is separate from the traditional financial aid process. Student finance personnel at DeVry’s degree granting institutions coordinate these processes to ensure that all students receive assistance from the federal and state programs first.  A small percentage of these loans were issued from school-backed pools.  These pools were made available to students with little or no credit history or some adverse credit history, who otherwise would

students.

Tax-favored programs


The United States has a number of tax-favored programs aimed at promoting savings for future college expenses. These include state-sponsored “529” college savings plans, state-sponsored prepaid tuition plans, education savings accounts (formerly known as education IRAs), custodial accounts for minors, Hope and Lifetime Learning credits, and tax deductions for interest on student loans.


Canadian government financial aid programs


Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada (other than students from Quebec) are eligible for loans under the Canada Student Loan Plan, which is financed by the Canadian government but administered at the provincial level. Canadian undergraduate students attending the DeVry University Calgary campus may also be eligible for provincial student loans. Eligibility and amount of funding vary by province. Students attending DeVry University on-line or in the United States or Ross University School of Medicine and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine may be eligible for the Canada Student Loan program. The loans are interest-free while the student is in school, and repayment begins six months after the student leaves school. Qualified students also may benefit from Canada Study Grants (designed for students whose financial needs and special circumstances cannot otherwise be met), tax-free withdrawals from retirement savings plans, tax-free education savings plans, loan repayment extensions, and interest relief on loans.


Brazilian government financial aid programs

DeVry Brasil students are eligible for loans under Brazil’s FIES public loan program, which is financed by the Brazilian government. DeVry Brasil also participates in PROUNI, a Brazilian governmental program which provides scholarships to a portion of its undergraduate students.

DeVry-Provided Financial Assistance


DeVry’s EDUCARD® Plan isinstitutional loan programs are available to DeVry Universitystudents and Chamberlain College of Nursing students; a similar option is available for Apollo and Western Career College and Ross University students.  The EDUCARD® Plan is a proprietary loan programare designed to assist students who are unable to completely cover educational costs by other means. EDUCARD® proprietaryThese loans may be used only for tuition, books, and fees, and are available only after all other student financial assistance has been applied toward those purposes. Repayment plans for EDUCARD® Planinstitutional loan program balances are developed to address the financial circumstances of the particular student. Under the deferred payment plan, certain students can arrange to defer all payments on tuition and fees for twelve weeks from the start of the term when the full amount is due.  Interest charges accrue each month on the unpaid balance. Under the revolving loan plan, amounts owed by current students are subject to a monthly interest charge of one percent of the average outstanding balance. After a student leaves school, the student typically will have a monthly installment repayment plan with all balances typically due within 12 to 60 months.



DeVry University undergraduate students also are eligible for numerous DeVry-sponsored scholarships. Scholarship programs generally are designed to attract recent high school graduates and students enrolled at community colleges, with awards that range from $1,000 per term up to the amount of full tuition. DeVry University has also provided funds in the form of institutional grants to help those students most in need of financial assistance.


DeVry University and Chamberlain College of Nursing students who receive employer tuition assistance may choose from several deferred tuition payment plans. Students eligible for tuition reimbursement plans may have their tuition billed directly to their employers or payment deferred until after the end of the session. Educational expenses paid by an employer on behalf of an employee generally are excludable from the employee’s income if provided under a qualified educational assistance plan. At present, the maximum annual exclusion is $5,250.


Professional Education


Students taking the Becker Professional Education review courses are not eligible for federal or state financial aid, but many receive partial or full tuition reimbursement from their employers. Private loans are also available to students to help meet the program costs.


In addition, Becker’s CPA Review course can be financed through Becker under a zero percent, 18 month term program.

Compliance with Legislative and Regulatory Requirements


Extensive and complex regulations in the United States and Canada govern all the government grant, loan, and work study programs in which DeVry University, Ross University School of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, Chamberlain College of Nursing, ApolloAmerican University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Carrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California and their respective students participate. DeVry must comply with many rules and standards, including maximum student loan default rates, limits on the proportion of its revenue that can be derived from federal student aid programs, prohibitions on certain types of incentive payments to student recruiters and financial aid officers, standards of financial responsibility, and administrative capability requirements. Like anyall other educational institution,institutions, DeVry’s administration of these programs is periodically reviewed by various regulatory agencies and is subject to audit or investigation by other governmental authorities. Any violation could be the basis for penalties or other disciplinary action, including initiation of a suspension, limitation or termination proceeding. Previous U.S. Department of Education (“ED”) and state regulatory agency program reviews have not resulted in significant findings or adjustments against DeVry. If a proceeding were initiated and caused the Department of EducationED to substantially curtail DeVry’s participation in government grant or loan programs, DeVry’s enrollments, revenues and accounts receivable could all be all adversely affected.

In the fall of 2009, the ED initiated the process of negotiated rulemaking with respect to Program Integrity Issues to consider changes to certain provisions of the regulations governing the Title IV Programs. The resulting program integrity rules promulgated in October 2010 and June 2011 address fourteen topics. The most significant to DeVry’s U.S. degree granting institutions are the following:

Gainful Employment


Misrepresentation

Incentive Compensation

The ED published final program integrity regulations on October 29, 2010, with most of the final rules effective July 1, 2011. On June 13, 2011, the ED published final regulations on metrics for gainful employment programs effective July 1, 2012. While DeVry expects to be in compliance with these new reporting and disclosure requirements, non-compliance with these requirements, individually or in combination, may negatively impact the Title IV eligibility of DeVry’s academic programs and its student enrollments.

Gainful Employment. To be eligible for Title IV funding, most academic programs offered by private sector institutions of higher education must prepare students for gainful employment in a recognized occupation. Effective July 1, 2011, all private sector higher education institutions must provide prospective students with the types of employment associated with the program, total cost of the program, on-time completion rate, job placement rate, if applicable, and the median loan debt of program completers. Beginning October 1, 2011, institutions must annually submit information to the ED about students who complete a program leading to gainful employment in a recognized occupation, including the amount of debt incurred under private loans or institutional financing plans, matriculation information, and end of year enrollment information. Additionally, beginning July 1, 2011 the final regulations require institutions to notify the ED at least 90 days before the commencement of new educational programs leading to gainful employment in recognized occupations. This notification must include information on the demand for the program, any performed wage analysis, any external program review and approval, and a demonstration of accreditation.

An academic program is considered to lead to gainful employment if it meets at least one of the following three metrics:

at least 35% of former students are repaying their loans;

the estimated annual loan payment of a typical graduate does not exceed 30% of his or her discretionary income; or

the estimated annual loan payment of a typical graduate does not exceed 12% of his or her total earnings.

An academic program that passes any one standard is considered to be preparing students for gainful employment. If an academic program fails all three metrics, the institution will have the opportunity to improve the performance of that program. After one failure, the institution must disclose the amount by which the program missed minimal acceptable performance and the program’s plan for improvement. After two failures within three years, the institution must inform students in the failing program that their debts may be unaffordable, that the program may lose eligibility, and what transfer options exist. After three failures within four years, the academic program loses eligibility to participate in Title IV programs for at least three years, although the program could be continued without federal student aid. If a particular program ceased to be eligible for Title IV funding, in most cases it would not be practical for DeVry to continue offering that program. These gainful employment standards are effective beginning with the Gainful Employment Measures for 2012, which will be published in 2013.

On June 30, 2012, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, in the case captioned Association of Private Sector Colleges and Universities (APSCU) v. Duncan, issued a decision that vacated most of the gainful employment regulations that the ED published on October 29, 2010 and June 13, 2011 and remanded those regulations to the ED for further action. The ED is reviewing the details of the Court’s decision in consultation with the Department of Justice and evaluating appropriate next steps. While the Court vacated most of the gainful employment regulations based upon one issue raised in the court case, it upheld the ED’s authority to impose gainful employment regulations. The Court determined that the ED did not provide a sound reason for setting the repayment rate failure threshold at 35 percent. And, because of the interrelationship of that provision with most of the other gainful employment requirements, the Court vacated the repayment rate metric as well as the debt-to-income gainful employment metrics that would have gone into effect July 1, 2012. The Court also vacated the gainful employment program reporting requirements and requirements about adding new gainful employment programs that previously went into effect on July 1, 2011. The Court left in place the gainful employment disclosure provisions that require institutions to disclose certain information on their web pages for each gainful employment program, including on time completion rates and information about tuition and costs.

Based on the rates that were released by the Department of Education before the Court vacated the regulation, DeVry did not have any programs that failed to meet the new Gainful Employment standards. Although the final rules regarding gainful employment metrics provide opportunities to address program deficiencies before the loss of Title IV eligibility, the continuing eligibility of

DeVry’s educational programs for Title IV funding will be affected by factors beyond management’s control, such as changes in the actual or deemed income level of DeVry’s graduates, changes in student borrowing levels, increases in interest rates, changes in the federal poverty income level used in calculating discretionary income, changes in the percentage of DeVry’s former students who are current in repayment of their student loans, and other factors. In addition, even though deficiencies in the metrics may be correctible on a timely basis, the disclosure requirements to students following a failure to meet the standards may adversely impact student enrollments in that program and may adversely impact the reputation of DeVry’s educational institutions. As discussed above, the U.S. District Court issued a decision which vacated most of the Gainful Employment regulations. DeVry cannot predict the eventual outcome of this case.

Misrepresentation. The new rules significantly broaden an educational institution’s liability for “substantial misrepresentation” that would, among other things, subject DeVry to sanctions for statements containing inadvertent errors made to non-students, including to any member of the public, impose vicarious liability on institutions for the conduct of others, and expose institutions to liability when no actual harm occurs.

Incentive Compensation.An educational institution participating in Title IV programs may not pay any commission, bonus or other incentive payments to any person involved in student recruitment or admissions or awarding of Title IV program funds, if such payments are based directly or indirectly in any part on success in enrolling students or obtaining student financial aid. The law and regulations governing this requirement never established clear criteria for compliance in all circumstances, but there were twelve safe harbors that defined specific types of compensation that were deemed to constitute permissible incentive compensation. The new rules eliminate the 12 safe harbors. These changes increase the uncertainty about what constitutes incentive compensation and which employees are covered by the regulation. This makes the development of effective and compliant performance metrics more difficult to establish. As such, these changes limit DeVry’s ability to compensate our employees based on their performance of their job responsibilities, which could make it more difficult to attract and retain highly-qualified employees.

A separate financial responsibility test for continued participation by an institution’s students in federal financial assistance programs, which pre-dates the program integrity regulations, is based upon a composite score of three ratios: an equity ratio that measures the institution’s capital resources; a primary reserve ratio that measures an institution’s ability to fund its operations from current resources; and a net income ratio that measures an institution’s ability to operate profitably. A minimum score of 1.5 is necessary to meet the Department of Education’s financial standards.


For the past several years, DeVry’s composite score has exceeded the required minimum of 1.5. Management believes it will continue to demonstrate the required level of financial stability. If DeVry were unable to meet requisite financial responsibility standards or otherwise demonstrate, within the regulations, its ability to continue to provide educational services, then DeVry could be required to post a letter of credit to enable its students to continue to participate in federal financial assistance programs.


Institutions that participate in U.S. federal financial aid programs must disclose information upon request about undergraduate student “completion rates” to current and prospective students. The federal Student-Right-To-Know Act defines the cohort of students on which the institution must report as “first-time, full-time, degree-seeking” students who enter the fall term. Completion rates calculated in accordance with the statute for each of DeVry University’s U.S. undergraduate campuses generally fall within the range of completion rates at selected four-year urban public colleges serving low income students and in the areas in which its campuses are located. However, its overall completion rate actually is higher than reported in these statistics: manystatistics. Many DeVry University students have previously attended other colleges (and completion rates for undergraduate students entering with previous college experience generally are higher than for first-time students), but these students are not included in the completion rate statistics that are defined by the Student-Right-To-Know Act. In an effort to improve our completion rates as defined by the statute, DeVry University has changed undergraduate admission requirements and added student support services. For the 20022005 freshman student cohortsstudents (the latest period for which final completion statistics are available), the graduation rate for DeVry University U.S. undergraduates was 31.1%30.0% as compared to the 20012004 rate of 31.3%29.1%.



Specialized staff at DeVry’s Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois, headquartershome office review, interpret, and establish procedures for compliance with regulations governing financial assistance programs and processesprocessing financial aid applications. Because financial assistance programs are required to be administered in accordance with the standard of care and diligence of a fiduciary, any regulatory violation couldcan be the basis for disciplinary action, including the initiation of a suspension, limitation, or termination proceeding.


In the United States, DeVry University, Chamberlain College of Nursing, Ross University ApolloSchool of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Carrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California have completed and submitted all required audits of compliance with federal financial assistance programs for fiscal year 2008.2011. DeVry’s independent public accountants are currently conducting the required audits of the one-year period ended June 30, 2009. In conjunction with previously2012. Based upon the most recently filed financial aid audit reports, DeVry University has beenwas not required to post letters of credit. As of August 2009, there were approximately $12.2 million inany letters of credit outstanding, representing less than 2% of the Title IV aid administered in fiscal year 2008, relating to its participation in federal financial aid assistance programs. These letters of credit expire in less than one year. No amount has ever been drawn under these letters of credit issued on behalf of DeVry.


As a part of its effort to monitor the administration of student financial assistance programs, the U.S. Department of Education and state grant agencies may conduct site visits and program reviews at any educational institution at any time. Reviews atof several DeVry campusesinstitutions have not resulted in any adverse material findings or adjustments.


A comprehensive program review of DeVry University’s administration of the Title IV programs, initiated in May 2011, remains open and ongoing.

In addition to the requirements that educational institutions must meet, student recipients of financial aid must maintain satisfactory academic progress toward completion of their program of study and an appropriate grade point average.


As discussed earlier, DeVry University undergraduate students are eligible to participate in the Federal Perkins Loan Program. DeVry University is responsible for the administration of this program. During fiscal year 2012, DeVry became aware that a portion of students with outstanding Perkins loans did not have the correct enrollment status, and therefore such loans should have been in repayment. The issue involved the transmission to a third party service provider of enrollment data for about ten percent of DeVry University students in the program. These students were not being moved into repayment mode when they should have been, and the fund was not accruing the interest or collecting the principal it should have. DeVry recorded an accrual for interest due to the Perkins fund for such loans along with a reserve for potential uncollectible accounts as a result of this now corrected administrative error.

STUDENT LOAN DEFAULTS


The U.S. Department of Education has instituted strict regulations that penalize institutions whose students have high default rates on federal student loans. Depending on the type of loan, a loan is considered in default after the borrower becomes at least 270 or 360 days past due. For a variety of reasons, highhigher default rates are most often found in proprietary institutions and community colleges — all of which tend to have a higher percentage of low income students enrolled than do four-year publicly supported and independent colleges and universities.


Educational institutions are penalized to varying degrees under the FFELP or the William D. Ford Federal Direct Student Loan Program, depending on the default rate for the “cohort” defined in the statute. An institution with a cohort default rate that exceeds 20% for the year is required to develop a plan to reduce defaults, but the institution’s operations and its students’ ability to utilize student loans are not restricted. An institution with a cohort default rate of 25% or more for three consecutive years is ineligible to participate in these loan programs and cannot offer student loans administered by the U.S. Department of Education for the fiscal year in which the ineligibility determination is made and for the next two fiscal years. Students attending an institution whose cohort default rate has exceeded 25% for three consecutive years also are ineligible for Pell grants. Any institution with a cohort default rate of 40% or more in any year is subject to immediate limitation, suspension, or termination proceedings from all federal aid programs. DeVry carefully monitors students’ loan default raterates and has never had a cohort default rate of 25% or more for three consecutive years, or of 40% or more in any one year. DeVry is notyear, at any if its institutions.

Beginning with the cohort default rate calculations for federal fiscal year 2009, the cohort default rate will be calculated by determining that rate at which borrowers who become subject to any restriction or terminationtheir repayment obligation in the relevant fiscal year, default by the end of the third federal fiscal year. The previous method of calculating cohort default rates will remain in effect and will be used to determine institutional eligibility until three consecutive years of official cohort default rates calculated under any student loan program.

The cohort default rate for Carrington College California was in excess of 15.0% for the most recent year (2009). In accordance with U.S. Department of Education regulations, disbursement of Title IV Stafford loans for new students is delayed for a thirty day period for any institution with a cohort default rate in excess of 15.0%. Management believes that the delay in the related cash receipts for this DeVry institution will not materially affect its operations or cash flow.

Under the Federal Perkins loan program, the institution is responsible for collecting outstanding loans. Any institution with a Perkins loan cohort default rate exceeding 15% must establish a default reduction plan. DeVry has worked to reduce the default raterates for all loan programs by implementing financial literacy and student counseling and additional collection effortsprograms and retaining outside loan service agencies.

CAREER SERVICES


DeVry University


AsTHE Career University, DeVry University believes that the employment of its graduates is essential to the achievement of its mission and the ability to attract and retain students. Career services professionals located at DeVry University undergraduate campuses work with students to choose careers, craft resumes, and prepare for job interviews. The staff also maintains contact with local and national employers to proactively identify job opportunities and arrange interviews. In many cases, company hiring representatives conduct interviews at DeVry University campuses.


DeVry University attempts to gather accurate data to determine how many of its undergraduates, both at the associate and bachelor’s degree levels, are employed in positions related to their program of study within six months following graduation. To a large extent, the reliability of such data depends on the quality of information that graduates self-report.


In

One measure of success is the 10employment outcomes of DeVry University graduates. Each year, period ending October 2008,thousands of DeVry University graduates have started careers in their chosen fields within 6 months or less of their graduation. Eighty-six percent of DeVry University’s U.S. campuses graduated more than 69,000 students who were eligible for career services assistance (this excludesFebruary 2011, June 2011 and October 2011 graduates who continued their education, students from foreign countries not legally eligible to work in the United States, and other categories of students whoactive job market were not available for employment). More than 58,000 graduates during this 10 year period actively pursued employment or were already employed; 89% of those held positions related toemployed in their programfields of study within six months of graduation.


For the three undergraduate classes that ended in calendar year 2008, there were 6,658graduation at an average salary of $42,626. These statistics include graduates from DeVry University’s U.S. undergraduate degree and diploma programs eligible for career service assistance, excluding the one-year post-baccalaureate information technology program (this excludes students continuing their education, students from foreign countries legally ineligible to work in the United States, and others ineligible for employment). From that pool of graduates, 6,001 actively pursued employment or were already employed. Within six months of graduation, 5,460, or 91% of those graduates were employed in positions related to their program of study. This compares to 92.8% who were employed in positions related to their program of study for the three classes that ended in calendar year 2007, and 91.9% who were employed in positions related to their program of study for the three classes that ended in calendar year 2006.

DeVry University believes that a significant number of graduating students currently employed in positions not directly related to their program of study have chosen to not actively seek other employment opportunities. For the three graduating classes in calendar year 2008, there were 438 graduates who were employed but not in positions related to their program of study. Of these individuals, 72% did not conduct an active employment search through DeVry University’s career services offices.

DeVry University’s 2008 graduates (associateassociate and bachelor’s degree programs) achieved reported annual compensation ranging from $33,288 to $50,071 with an average compensationprograms and those who were already employed in their field of $45,486. Individual compensation levels vary depending uponstudy.

For the graduate’s previous employment experience, program of study, and geographic area of employment.



DeVry University believes that no single employer has hired more than 5% of our graduates in recent years. Major employers of DeVry undergraduates include Abbott Laboratories, Boeing, Dell, Federal Express, GE Healthcare, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Intel, J.P. Morgan Chase, Motorola, Northrop Grumman, State Farm, Siemens, and UPS.

DeVry University hosted its first Virtual Career Fair on May 6, 2009, a simulated environment that mirrors a physical Career Fair. The Virtual Career Fair provided real-time employer/student interaction and great networking opportunities for students.  More than 5,400 people (students, grads, and alumni) attended, and more than 25 companies participated including AT&T, Comcast, GE Healthcare, H&R Block, Hewlett Packard, IBM, IRS, Johnson & Johnson, Procter and Gamble: Research & Development, RedBox, Schlumberger, Staples, State Farm Insurance, Verizon Telecom, Volt Technologies, and Zen Technologies Ltd.  As a result of this Fair, two people were hired, two have internships, and more than 25 interviews have been conducted.  Due to its success, two additional Virtual Career Fairs have been scheduled for Fiscal Year 2010.

Management considers its career services commitment an important element of its service to students. Over the past severallast ten years, DeVry University developed and implementedgraduates have obtained employment at over 95 of the Fortune 100 companies. In this connection, DeVry University works with Fortune 100 companies to design programs that provide real-world knowledge.

Historically, DeVry University has provided students access to a student national job database, which allows students to log into one site to view, apply for, and learn more about job leadsopportunities appropriate to their experience and education level. ForOver the upcomingcoming year DeVry University will expand the capabilities of this databasesystem into a more comprehensive student portal for career planning and management. This new system will be further expandedinclude a self-assessment application, networking tools, video tutorials, resource links, and feeds for employer use.events and job leads relevant to their degree program. In addition, management developedhas recently reconfigured the national job database to allow employers to access the system directly and post job leads on their own. This functionality will be rolled-out to our employer partners over the coming year.

SEASONALITY


SEASONALITY

DeVry’s quarterly revenue and net income fluctuate primarily as a result of the pattern of student enrollments. Generally, the schools’ highest enrollment and revenues typically occur in the fall, which corresponds to the second and third quarters of DeVry’s fiscal year. Enrollment is slightly lower in the spring, and the lowest enrollment generally occurs during the summer months. DeVry’s operating costs do not fluctuate as significantly on a quarterly basis.


Results of operations reflect both this seasonal enrollment pattern and the pattern of student recruiting activity costs that precede the start of every term. Revenues, operating income, and net income by quarter for each of the past two fiscal years are included in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Quarterly Financial Data.”

ITEMITEM 1A — RISK FACTORS


DeVry’s business operations are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Investors should carefully consider the risk factors described below and all other information contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K before making an investment decision with respect to DeVry’s common stock. If any of the following risks are realized, DeVry’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected, and as a result, the trading price of DeVry’s common stock could be materially and adversely impacted. Because of their very nature, management cannot predict all the possible risks and uncertainties that may arise. Risks and uncertainties that may affect DeVry’s business include, but are not limited to:


Risks Related to DeVry’s Highly Regulated Industry


DeVry is subject to risks relating to regulatory matters. If DeVry fails to comply with the extensive regulatory requirements for its business,operations, DeVry could face fines and penalties, including loss of access to federal and state student financial aid for ourits students.


As a provider of higher education, DeVry is subject to extensive regulation on both the federal and state levels. In particular, the Higher Education Act, as amended and reauthorized, (“the Higher Education Act”) subjects DeVry’s U.S. degree granting institutions (DeVry University, Ross University, Chamberlain College of Nursing, ApolloCarrington College and Western Career College)Carrington College California) and all

other higher education institutions, including DeVry’s Ross University School of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine and American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, that participate in the various federal student financial aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act (“Title IV”) to significant regulatory scrutiny.


To participate in Title IV, an institution must receive and maintain authorization by the appropriate state education agencies, be accredited by an accrediting commission recognized by the U.S. Department of Education (“U.S. DOE”ED”), and be certified by the U.S. DOEED as an eligible institution.  Most U.S. DOE requirements are applied on an institutional basis.


institution, which ultimately is accomplished through the execution of a Program Participation Agreement.

These regulatory requirements cover virtually all phases of ourDeVry’s U.S. operations, including educational program offerings, facilities, instructional and administrative staff, administrative procedures, marketing and recruiting, financial operations, payment of refunds to students who withdraw, acquisitions or openings of new schools or programs, addition of new educational programs and changes in ourDeVry’s corporate structure and ownership.



If DeVry is found to be in noncompliance with any of these regulations, standards or policies, any one of the relevant regulatory agencies could take action including:

Imposing monetary fines or penalties;

·Imposing monetary fines or penalties;

Requiring a posting of a letter of credit or bond

·Limiting or terminating DeVry’s operations or ability to grant diplomas;

Limiting or terminating DeVry’s operations or ability to grant degrees;

·Restricting or revoking accreditation, licensure or other approval to operate;

Restricting or revoking accreditation, licensure or other approval to operate;

·Limit, suspend, or terminate eligibility to participate in Title IV programs or state financial aid programs; and

Limiting, suspending, or terminating eligibility to participate in Title IV programs or state financial aid programs; and

·Subjecting DeVry to other civil or criminal penalties.

Subjecting DeVry to other civil or criminal penalties, including those associated with filing a false claim, which may include requirements to repay one or more years receipt of Title IV aid and treble damages.


Any of the penalties, injunctions, restrictions or other forms of censure listed above could have a material adverse effect on DeVry’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. If DeVry were to lose its Title IV eligibility, DeVry would experience a dramatic and adverse decline in revenue and would be unable to continue business as it is currently conducted.


The following are some

Many U.S. state governments also provide financial support to students enrolled in higher education programs in their state. These state government financial aid programs subject our schools to regulatory requirements, often similar to those governing federal Title IV programs. If any one of our U.S. degree granting institutions is found to be in noncompliance with regulations governing those programs, its students and prospective students may lose access to funds from the non-compliant program, which could negatively impact the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the affected institution. The institution could also be required to repay all or a portion of funds received for one or more years of noncompliant activity.

The U.S. Congress may change laws governing federal financial aid programs in ways that could materially impact our financial condition, operations and cash flows.

Action by the U.S. Congress to revise the laws governing the federal student financial aid programs or reduce funding for those programs could reduce DeVry’s student enrollments and/or increase its costs of operation. Political and budgetary concerns significantly affect Title IV Programs. The U.S. Congress enacted the Higher Education Act to be reauthorized on a periodic basis, which most recently occurred in August 2008. The 2008 reauthorization of the Higher Education Act made significant regulatorychanges to the requirements governing the Title IV Programs, including changes that, among other things:

Regulated non-federal, private education loans;

Regulated the relationship between institutions and risks relatedlenders that make education loans;

Revised the calculation of the student default rate attributed to governmentalan institution and accrediting body oversightthe threshold rate at which sanctions will be imposed against an institution (as discussed above);

Adjusted the types of revenue that an institution is deemed to have derived from Title IV Programs and the sanctions imposed on an institution that derives too much revenue from Title IV Programs;

Increased the types and amount of information that an institution must disclose to current and prospective students and the public; and

Increased the types of policies and practices that an institution must adopt and follow.

The U.S. Congress can change the laws affecting Title IV Programs in the annual federal appropriations bills and other laws it enacts between the Higher Education Act reauthorizations. At this time, DeVry cannot predict all of the changes that the U.S. Congress will ultimately make. Since a significant percentage of DeVry’s business:

·DeVry’s U.S. degree granting institutions may lose their eligibility to participate in Title IV programs if their student loan default rates are greater than standards set by the U.S. DOE;
·Any of DeVry’s U.S. degree granting institutions may lose eligibility to participate in Title IV programs if, on a cash basis, the percentage of the institution’s revenue derived from Title IV programs for two consecutive fiscal years is greater than 90%;
·The ability of DeVry’s degree granting institutions to participate in Title IV programs may be impaired if regulators do not approve a change of control of any institutions that DeVry may acquire;
·DeVry may be required to accept limitations to continue its U.S. degree granting institutions’ participation in Title IV programs if DeVry fails to satisfy the U.S. DOE administrative capability standards;
·DeVry is subject to sanctions if payments of impermissible commissions, bonuses or other incentive payments are made to the individuals involved in certain recruiting, admissions, or financial aid activities; and
·DeVry may be required to post a letter of credit or accept other limitations to continue its U.S. degree granting institution’s participation in Title IV programs if DeVry does not meet the U.S. DOE’s financial responsibility standards or if DeVry’s institutions do not correctly calculate and timely return Title IV program funds for students who withdraw before completing their program of study.

DeVry could loserevenue is indirectly derived from Title IV Programs, any action by the U.S. Congress that significantly reduces Title IV Program funding or suffer limitationsthe ability of DeVry’s degree granting institutions or students to participate in accreditations and licensing approvals that could affect its ability to recruit students, operate schools in some locations, and grant degrees.

Unforeseen changes to laws or regulations governing DeVry’s operations may adversely affect current operations or future growth opportunities.

DeVry is subject to risks relating to financial aid and student finance.  A substantial decrease in student financing options, or a significant increase in financing costs for DeVry students,Title IV Programs could have a material adverse affecteffect on DeVry’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Recently proposed legislation that, if enacted, could have a material adverse effect on our business includes:

Inclusion of sources of federal student assistance or funding other than Title IV aid in the 90/10 formula,

Limitations of the use of federal funding for certain expenses.

Congressional examination of private sector post-secondary education could lead to legislation or other governmental action that may negatively affect the industry.

In 2010, the U.S. Congress increased its focus on private sector education institutions, including participation in Title IV programs and the U.S. Departments’ of Defense and Veterans Administration oversight of tuition assistance for military service members attending private sector colleges. Since June 2010 the Senate HELP Committee has held hearings to examine private sector education. Other Committees of the U.S. Congress have also held hearings into, among other things, the standards and procedures of accrediting agencies, credit hours and program length, the portion of federal student financial aid going to private sector institutions, and the receipt of veteran’s and military education benefits by students enrolled at private sector institutions. DeVry has cooperated with each of these inquiries. A number of legislators have variously requested the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to review and make recommendations regarding, among other things, recruitment practices, educational quality, student outcomes, the sufficiency of integrity safeguards against waste, fraud and abuse in Title IV programs, and the percentage of private sector institutions’ revenue coming from Title IV and other federal funding sources. The GAO released four reports on private sector post-secondary education: first, a report in August 2010 (subsequently revised in November 2010) that concluded, based on a three-month undercover investigation, that employees at a non-random sample of 15 private sector institutions (not any of our schools) made deceptive statements to students about accreditation, graduation rates, job placement, program costs, or financial aid; second, a report in October 2010 critical of the ED’s efforts to enforce the ban on incentive payments; third, a report in October 2011 critical of the student experience and instructor performance at some private sector online institutions; and fourth, a report in December 2011 comparing various student outcomes across private sector, non-profit, and public institutions. This increased activity is expected to continue and may result in legislation, further rulemaking affecting participation in Title IV programs, and other governmental actions. In addition, concerns generated by Congressional activity may adversely affect enrollment in and revenues of private sector educational institutions. Limitations on the amount of federal student financial results.


DeVry’said for which our students are highlyeligible under Title IV could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our ability to comply with some of regulations of the Department of Education is affected by economic forces affecting our students and graduates that are not entirely within our control.

Our ability to comply with several regulations of the ED is not entirely within our control. In particular, our ability to participate in federal Title IV programs is dependent on government-fundedthe ability of our past students to avoid default on student loans, obtain gainful employment, and to pay for a portion of their education with private funds. These measurements are heavily influenced by broader economic drivers, including the personal or family wealth of our students, the overall employment outlook for their area of study and the availability of private financing sources. The continued economic downturn, or a worsening economic outlook, could impact these measurements, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial aidcondition, results of operation and cash flows.

Our failure to comply with the Department of Education’s gainful employment regulations could result in heightened disclosure requirements and loss of Title IV eligibility.

Proprietary education programs that “lead to gainful employment in a recognized profession” are eligible to participate in Title IV programs. In June 2011, the ED released regulations, comprised of alternative metrics, to determine whether a proprietary institution’s programs lead to gainful employment, with the express purpose of restricting the financing options of students at certain proprietary institutions. Failure to meet the established criteria would result in a proprietary education institution, like any of our U.S. degree institutions, losing eligibility to participate in Title IV programs. Much of the ED’s gainful employment regulations were recently vacated inPSCU v. Duncan, Case No. 1:11-CV-01314-RC, Dkt. 25 at 1 (D.D.C. June 30, 2012). The Court inPSCU,however, upheld ED’s authority to establish minimum standards in determining whether an institution’s programs met the gainful employment requirements. If there are changesthe ED were to successfully appeal the Court’s decision inPSCU,or develop new gainful employment regulations, and we were unable to comply with such regulations, our noncompliance with such regulations could have a material impact on our ability to participate in the Title IV programs and, consequently, a material adverse effect on our financial aid programcondition. In connection with the ED’s focus on gainful employment, the ED also released regulations that restrict student eligibility or reduce funding levels, DeVry’s enrollment and/or collection of student billings may suffer, causing revenueswere not vacated inPSCU requiring disclosures related to decline. Conversely, increases in state funding levels to taxpayer-supported educational institutionsprogram costs, average indebtedness and employment outcomes from each program.These remaining disclosure requirements could generate further price competition that adversely affects DeVry’shave an adverse impact on our ability to recruit and enroll students if potential new students perceive these outcomes as an indicator of poor value or non-competitive with other programs.

Department of Education rules prohibiting “substantial misrepresentation” are very broad. As a result, we face increased exposure to litigation arising from student and prospective student complaints and enforcement actions by the Department of Education that could restrict or eliminate our eligibility to participate in Title IV programs.

Recently adopted ED rules significantly broaden an educational institution’s liability for “substantial misrepresentation” that, among other things, subject us to sanctions for statements containing inadvertent errors made to non-students, including any member of the public, impose vicarious liability on us for the conduct of others, and expose us to liability even when no actual harm occurs. It is possible that despite our efforts to prevent such misrepresentations, our employees or service providers may make statements that could be construed as substantial misrepresentations. As a result, we may face complaints from students and prospective students over statements made by us and our agents throughout the enrollment, admissions and financial aid process, as well as throughout attendance at any of our U.S. degree granting schools, which would expose us to increased risk of enforcement action and applicable sanctions or other penalties and increased risk of private qui tam actions under the Federal False Claims Act. If the ED determines that an institution has engaged in substantial misrepresentation, the ED may revoke an institution’s agreement to participate in the ED’s Title IV programs, impose limitations on the institution’s participation in Title IV programs, deny applications from the institution for approval of new programs or locations or other matters, or initiate proceedings to fine the institution or limit, suspend, or terminate its eligibility to participate in Title IV programs. If the ED determines that statements made by us or on our behalf are in violation of the new regulations, we could be subject to sanctions and other liability, which could have a material adverse effect on financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and stock price.

Regulations governing the eligibility of our U.S. degree granting institutions to participate in Title IV programs preclude us from compensating any employee or third-party involved in student recruitment, admissions or finance based on their success in those areas. These regulations could limit our ability to attract and retain students.


Changeshighly-qualified employees, to sustain and grow our business, or to develop or acquire businesses that would not otherwise be subject to such regulations.

An educational institution participating in tax lawsTitle IV programs may not pay any commission, bonus or other incentive payments to any person involved in student recruitment or admissions or awarding of Title IV program funds, if such payments are based directly or indirectly in any part on success in enrolling students or obtaining student financial aid. Our limited ability to compensate our employees based on their performance of their job responsibilities could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain highly-qualified employees. The regulations may also impair our ability to sustain and grow our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and stock price. Additionally, guidance from the ED indicates that these regulations would apply to services that we may provide to enable other educational institutions to offer online educational programs. These restrictions could materially restrict our ability to provide services competitive with other companies that provide, or will provide, online services to educational institutions without restrictions on incentive compensation.

A failure to demonstrate financial responsibility or administrative capability may result in the loss of eligibility to participate in Title IV programs.

All Title IV participating institutions are subject to meeting financial and administrative standards. These standards are assessed through annual compliance audits, quadrennial renewal of institutional program participation agreements, periodic program reviews and ad hoc events which may lead ED to evaluate an institution’s capacities. If we fail to demonstrate either financial responsibility or administrative capability, we could be subject to sanctions including; a requirement to post a letter of credit, fines, suspension or termination of our eligibility to participated in the Title IV programs, any of, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

Student loan defaults could result in the loss of eligibility to participate in Title IV programs.

Our U.S. degree granting institutions may lose their eligibility to participate in Title IV programs if their student loan default rates are greater than standards set by the ED. An educational institution may lose its eligibility to participate in some or all Title IV programs, if, for three consecutive federal fiscal years, 25% or more of its students who were required to begin repaying their student loans in the relevant federal fiscal year default on their payment by the end of the next federal fiscal year. In addition, an institution may lose its eligibility to participate in some or all Title IV programs if its default rate for a federal fiscal year was greater than 40%. Beginning with the cohort default rate calculations for federal fiscal year 2009, the cohort default rate will be calculated by determining the rate at which borrowers, who become subject to their repayment obligation in the relevant fiscal year, default by the end of the third federal fiscal year. The prior method of calculating cohort default rates will remain in effect and will be used to determine institutional eligibility until three consecutive years of official cohort default rates calculated under the new formula are available. In addition, the cohort default rate threshold of 25% will be increased to 30% for purposes of certain sanctions and requirements related to cohort default rates. This change will initially affect eligibility determinations for the 2015 and 2016 fiscal years. If any of our U.S. degree granting institutions lose eligibility to participate in Title IV programs because of high student loan default rates, it would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

Our schools could lose their eligibility to participate in federal student financial aid programs if the percentage of their revenues derived from those programs were too high.

Our U.S. degree granting institutions may lose eligibility to participate in Title IV programs if, on a cash basis, the percentage of the institution’s revenue derived from Title IV programs for two consecutive fiscal years is greater than 90%. If any of our U.S. degree granting institutions lose eligibility to participate in Title IV programs because it is unable to comply with the ED’s 90/10 Rule, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

Our failure to comply with the Department of Education’s credit hour rule could result in sanctions and other liability.

In 2009 and 2010 the ED’s Office of Inspector General criticized three accreditors, including the Higher Learning Commission, which is the accreditor for DeVry University and Chamberlain College of Nursing, for deficiency in their oversight of institutions’ credit hour allocations. In June 2010 the House Education and Labor Committee held a hearing concerning accrediting agencies’ standards for assessing institutions’ credit hour policies. The 2010 Program Integrity Regulations defined the term “credit hour” for the first time and require accrediting agencies to review the reliability and accuracy of an institution’s credit hour assignments. If an accreditor does not comply with this requirement, its recognition by the ED could be jeopardized. If an accreditor identifies systematic or significant noncompliance in one or more of an institution’s programs, the accreditor must notify the Secretary of Education. If the ED determines that an institution is out of compliance with the credit hour definition, the ED could impose liabilities or other sanctions which could have a material adverse effect on our financial conditions, results of operation and cash flows.

If we fail to maintain our institutional accreditation or if our institutional accrediting body loses recognition by the Department of Education, we would lose our ability to participate in Title IV programs.

The loss of accreditation by any of our schools would leave such affected school ineligible to participate in Title IV programs and would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. In addition, an adverse action by any of our accreditors, other than loss of accreditation, such as issuance of a warning, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Increased scrutiny of accreditors by the Secretary of Education in connection with the ED’s recognition process may result in increased scrutiny of institutions by accreditors or have other consequences.

If we fail to maintain any of our state authorizations, we would lose our ability to operate in that state and to participate in Title IV programs there.

Campuses of our U.S. degree granting institutions are authorized to operate and to grant degrees, diplomas or certificates by the applicable education agency of the state where each such campus is located. Such state authorization is required for students at the campus to participate in Title IV programs. The loss of state authorization would, among other things, render the affected school ineligible to participate in Title IV programs at least at those state campus locations, limit that school’s ability to operate in that state and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

Budget constraints in states that provide state financial aid to our students could reduce the amount of such financial aid that is available to our students, which could reduce our enrollment and adversely affect our 90/10 Rule percentage.

Many states are experiencing severe budget deficits and constraints. Some of these states have reduced corporate earnings both could affect corporate educational benefit plans.or eliminated various student financial assistance programs, and additional states may do so in the future. If employers reduce tuition reimbursement amounts, workingour students who receive this type of assistance cannot secure alternate sources of funding, they may be less likelyforced to withdraw, reduce the rate at which they seek to complete their education, or replace the source with more expensive forms of funding such as private loans which will have a negative impact on debt measurements such as the Gainful Employment disclosures and the cohort default rate. Other students who would otherwise have been eligible for state financial assistance may not be able to enroll without such aid. This reduced funding could decrease our enrollment and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition, the reduction or elimination of these non-Title IV sources of student funding may adversely affect our 90/10 measurement.

We are subject to sanctions if we fail to calculate accurately and make timely payment of refunds of Title IV program funds for students who withdraw before completing their educational program.

The Higher Education Act and ED regulations require us to calculate refunds of unearned Title IV program funds disbursed to students who withdraw from their educational program. If refunds are not properly calculated or timely paid, we may be required to post a letter of credit with the ED or be subject to sanctions or other adverse actions by the ED, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

We rely on one or more third parties to administer portions of our Title IV and institutional loan programs and failure to comply with applicable regulations by a third-party or by us could result in sanctions.

We contract with unaffiliated entities for student software systems and services related to the administration of portions of our Title IV and institutional loan programs. Because each of our schools is jointly and severally liable for the actions of third-party servicers and vendors, failure of such servicers to comply with applicable regulations could have a material adverse effect on our schools, including fines and the loss of eligibility to participate in Title IV programs. If any of the third party servicers discontinue providing such services to us, we may not be able to replace them in a timely, cost-efficient, or effective manner, or at all, and we could lose our ability to comply with collection, lending and Title IV requirements, which could have a material adverse effect our enrollment, revenues and results of operations.

We provide financing programs to assist some of our students in affording our educational offerings. These programs are subject to various federal and state rules and regulations. Failure to comply with credit and collections regulations could subject us to fines.

Our institutional lending programs fall under the oversight and enforcement provisions of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. If we, or one of the companies that service our loans, do not comply with Truth in Lending or Fair Debt Collections Practices laws, we could be subject to fines of as much as $1,000,000 per day of non-compliance. These fines could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

Release of confidential information could subject us to civil penalties or cause us to lose our eligibility to participate in Title IV programs.

As an educational institution participating in federal and state student assistance programs and collecting financial receipts from enrollees or their sponsors, we collect and retain certain confidential information. Such information is subject to federal and state privacy and security rules, including the Family Education Right to Privacy Act, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. Release or failure to secure confidential information or other non-compliance with these rules could subject us to fines, loss of our capacity to conduct electronic commerce and loss of eligibility to participate in Title IV programs.

We are subject to sanctions if we fail to accurately and timely report sponsored students’ tuition, fees and enrollments to the sponsoring agency.

A significant portion of our enrollment is sponsored through various federal and state supported agencies and programs, including the U. S. Departments of Defense, Labor and Veterans Administration. We are required to periodically report tuition fees and enrollment to the sponsoring agencies. As a recipient of funds, we are subject to periodic reviews and audits. Inaccurate or untimely reporting could result in suspension or termination of our eligibility to participate in these federal and state programs and have a material adverse impact on enrollments and revenues.

DeVry’s enrollment may be adversely affected by presentations of data concerning competitors that are not representative of actual educational costs for our prospective students.

The ED and other public policy organizations are concerned with the escalating costs of higher education and have developed various tools and resources to help students find low cost educational alternatives. These resources primarily rely on and present data for first-time, full-time residential students, which is not representative of most prospective DeVry program, causing enrollment and revenuesstudents. These presentations may influence some prospective students to decline.

Risks Related to DeVry’s Business

Student enrollment at our schools is affected by legislative, regulatory and economic factors that may change in ways we cannot predict. These factors outside our control limit our ability to assess our future enrollments effectively.

Our future growth depends on a number of factors, including many of the regulatory risks discussed above and business risks discussed below. DeVry University, Carrington College and Carrington College California have experienced reduced new student enrollments in recent periods. Despite ongoing efforts to provide more scholarships to prospective students, and to increase quality and build our reputation, increased unemployment, consumer aversion to debt and the resulting lower student consumer confidence may continue to impact enrollment in the future. Until legislative, regulatory, and market uncertainty are resolved, it may be difficult to assess whether and to what extent there is an impact on our long term growth prospects.

DeVry is subject to risks relating to enrollment of students. If DeVry is not able to continue to successfully recruit and retain its students, it will not be able to sustain its recent revenue growth rate.


or grow revenues.

DeVry’s undergraduate and graduate educational programs are concentrated in selected areas of technology, healthcare and business. If applicant career interests shift away from these fields, and we do not anticipate or adequately respond to that trend, future enrollment and revenue may decline.


If our graduates are unable to find appropriate employment opportunities, we may not be able to recruit new students.

If employment opportunities for DeVry graduates in fields related to their educational programs decline, future enrollment and revenue may decline as potential applicants choose to enroll at other educational institutions offering different courses of study.


DeVry may experience increased

We face heightened competition in the postsecondary education market from otherboth public and private educational institutions, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

Postsecondary education in recruitingour existing and new market areas is highly competitive and is becoming increasingly so. We compete with traditional public and private two-year and four-year colleges, other proprietary schools and alternatives to higher education. Some of our competitors, both public and private, have greater financial and nonfinancial resources than we have. Some of our competitors, both public and private, are able to offer programs similar to ours at a lower tuition level for a variety of reasons, including the availability of direct and indirect government subsidies, government and foundation grants, large endowments, tax-deductible contributions and other financial resources not available to proprietary institutions, or by providing fewer student services or larger class sizes. An increasing number of traditional colleges and community colleges are offering distance learning and other online education programs, including programs that are geared towards the needs of working learners. This trend has been accelerated by private companies that provide and/or manage online learning platforms for traditional colleges and community colleges. As the proportion of traditional colleges providing alternative learning modalities increases, we will face increasing competition for students from traditional colleges, including colleges with well-established reputations for excellence. As the online and distance learning segment of the postsecondary education market matures, we believe that the intensity of the competition we face will continue to increase. This intense competition could make it more challenging for us to enroll students who are likely to succeed in our educational programs, which could adversely affect our enrollment levels and put downward pressure on our tuition rates, either of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The personal information that we collect may be vulnerable to breach, theft or loss that could adversely affect our reputation and operations.

Possession and use of personal information in our operations subjects us to risks and costs that could harm our business. We collect, use and retain large amounts of personal information regarding our students and retainingtheir families, including social security numbers, tax return information, personal and family financial data and credit card numbers. We also collect and maintain personal information of our employees in the ordinary course of our business. Some of this personal information is held and managed by certain of our vendors. Confidential information also may become available to third parties inadvertently when we integrate or convert computer networks into our network following an acquisition of a school or in connection with upgrades from time to time.

Due to the sensitive nature of the information contained on our networks, such as students’ grades, our networks may be targeted by hackers. Anyone who circumvents security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations. Although we use security and business controls to limit access and use of personal information, a third party may be able to circumvent those security and business controls, which could result in a breach of student or employee privacy. In addition, errors in the storage, use or transmission of personal information could result in a breach of student or employee privacy. Possession and use of personal information in our operations also subjects us to legislative and regulatory burdens that could require notification of data breaches and restrict our use of personal information. We cannot assure you that a breach, loss or theft of personal information will not occur. A breach, theft or loss of personal information regarding our students already enrolled, causing enrollment and revenues to decline.


DeVrytheir families or our employees that is subject to risks relating to operating matters,held by us or our vendors could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and results of operations and result in liability under state and federal privacy statutes and legal actions by state authorities and private litigants, and any of which could have a material adverse affecteffect on DeVry’s financial results.

If other educational institutions reduce their price of tuition, a DeVry educationour business.

A failure in our computer network or information systems could become less attractiveseverely impact our ability to prospectiveserve our existing students and attract new students. In addition, DeVry may be unable, for competitive reasons, to maintain and increase tuition rates in the future, adversely affecting future revenues and earnings.


DeVry may be unable to hire and retain key employees with appropriate educational qualifications and experience, causing DeVry to incur higher wage expense and/or provide less student support and customer service which could adversely affect enrollment, revenues and expense.

The performance and reliability of DeVry’sour computer networks and system applications, especially itstheir online educational platforms and student operational and financial aid packaging applications, are critical to DeVry’sour reputation and ability to attract and retain students. System errors and/or failures could adversely impact DeVry’s delivery of educational content to its online students. In addition, system errors could result in delays and/or errors in processing student financial aid and related disbursements.


Security breaches There is no assurance that we would be able to enhance/expand our computer networks and system applications to meet increased demand and future information requirements.

Government regulations relating to the Internet could increase our cost of DeVry’s information systems can create system disruptions, shutdownsdoing business and affect our ability to grow.

The increasing popularity and use of the Internet and other online services has led to and may lead to further adoption of new laws and regulatory practices in the U.S. or unauthorized disclosureforeign countries and to new interpretations of confidential information.  If DeVry is unableexisting laws and regulations. These new laws and interpretations may relate to preventissues such security breaches, itsas online privacy, copyrights, trademarks and service marks, sales taxes, value-added taxes, withholding taxes, allocation and apportionment of income amongst various state, local and foreign jurisdictions, fair business practices and the requirement that online education institutions qualify to do business as foreign corporations or be licensed in one or more jurisdictions where they have no physical location or other presence. New laws, regulations or interpretations related to doing business over the Internet could increase our costs and materially and adversely affect our enrollments, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations could be disrupted,and cash flows.

Natural disasters or DeVryother extraordinary events may suffer reputational damage and/or financial loss becausecause us to close some of lost or misappropriated information.


our schools.

DeVry may experience business interruptions resulting from natural disasters, inclement weather, transit disruptions, or other events in one or more of the geographic areas in which it operates, particularly in the West Coast and Gulf States of the U.S. and in the Caribbean. These events could cause DeVry to close schools — temporarily or permanently — and could affect student recruiting opportunities in those locations, causing enrollment and revenues to decline.


DeVry’s ability to open new campuses, offer new programs, and add capacity is dependent on regulatory approvals and requires financial and human resources.

As part of its growth strategy, DeVry intends to open new campuses, offer new educational programs and add capacity to existing locations. Such actions require DeVry to obtain appropriate federal, state and accrediting agency approvals. In addition, adding new locations, programs and capacity may require significant financial investments and human resource capabilities. The failure to obtain appropriate approvals or not properly allocate financial and human capital would adversely impact DeVry’s future growth.

We may not be able to attract, retain and develop key employees necessary for our operations and the successful execution of our strategic plans.

DeVry may be unable to attract, retain and develop key employees with appropriate educational qualifications and experience. In addition, DeVry may be unable to effectively plan and prepare for changes in key employees. Such matters may cause DeVry to incur higher wage expense and/or provide less student support and customer service which could adversely affect enrollment, revenues and expense. A significant amount of our compensation for our key employees is tied to our financial performance. Recent financial results have resulted in lower compensation payments under our Management Incentive Plan and lower returns on grants under our Long Term Incentive Plan for many of our key employees, which may make it more difficult for DeVry to retain such employees. We may require new employees in order to execute some of our strategic plans. Uncertainty regarding our future financial performance may limit our ability to attract new employees with competitive compensation or increase our cost of recruiting and retaining such new employees.

DeVry may not be able to successfully identify, pursue or integrate acquisitions.


As part of its growth strategy, DeVry is actively considering acquisition opportunities in the U.S. and worldwide. DeVry has acquired and expects to acquire additional educational institutions that complement our strategic direction, some of which could be material.material to our operations. Any acquisition involves significant risks and uncertainties, including:

Inability to successfully integrate the acquired operations into our institutions and maintain uniform standards, controls, policies and procedures; and

·Inability to successfully integrate the acquired operations into our institutions and maintain uniform standards, controls, policies and procedures; and

Issues not discovered in our due diligence process, including commitments and/or contingencies.

·Issues not discovered in our due diligence process, including commitments and/or contingencies.


Proposed changes in, or lapses of, U.S. tax laws regarding earnings from international operations could adversely affect our financial results.

During May 2009, the

The U.S. Treasury Department announced that it willmay seek legislative changes to federal tax laws governing the taxation of foreign earnings of U.S. based companies. DeVry’s effective income tax rate reflects benefits derived from operations outside the United States. Earnings of Ross University’sDeVry’s international operations are not subject to foreign or U.S. federal income taxes as described in Note 10, Income Taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements. If such federal tax laws were changed and some of Ross University’sDeVry’s international earnings were subject to federal income tax, or if certain of DeVry’s U.S. expenses were not deductible

for U.S. income tax purposes, DeVry’s effective income tax rate would increase and its earnings and cash flows would be adversely impacted.


In addition, DeVry has benefitted from the ability to enter into international intercompany arrangements without incurring U.S. taxation due to a law, subject to expire in fiscal year 2013, deferring U.S. taxation of “foreign personal holding company income” such as foreign income from dividends, interest, rents and royalties. If this law not extended, or a similar law adopted, our consolidated tax provision, beginning in our fiscal year 2013, would be impacted and we may not be able to allocate international capital optimally without realizing U.S. income taxes, which would increase our effective income tax rate and adversely impact our earnings and cash flows.

DeVry may experience movements in foreign currency exchange rates which could adversely affect our operating results.


As DeVry expands internationally, DeVry will conduct more transactions in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Additionally, the volume of transactions in the various foreign currencies will continue to increase, thus increasing DeVry’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could have a material adverse affecteffect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.


Expansion into new international markets will subject DeVry to risks inherent in international operations.


As part of its growth strategy, DeVry has acquired and intends to acquire or establish additional educational operations outside of the United States. To the extent that DeVry expands internationally, DeVry will face risks that are inherent in international operations including:

Compliance with foreign regulatory environments;

·Compliance with foreign regulatory environments;

Currency exchange rate fluctuations

·Currency exchange rate fluctuations

Monetary policy risks, such as inflation, hyperinflation and deflation;

·Monetary policy risks, such as inflation, hyperinflation and deflation;

Price controls or restrictions on exchange of foreign currencies;

·Price controls or restrictions on exchange of foreign currencies;

Political and economic instability in the countries in which DeVry operates;

·Political and economic instability in the countries in which DeVry operates;

·Compliance with United States regulations such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.


DeVry’s goodwill and intangible assets could potentially be impaired if our business results and financial condition were materially and adversely impacted by the risks and uncertainties


At June 30, 2009,2012, intangible assets from business combinations totaled $203.2$285.2 million, and goodwill totaled $512.6$550.0 million. Together, these assets equaled approximately 50%45% of total assets as of such date. If DeVry’s business results and financial condition were materially and adversely impacted, then such goodwill and intangible assets could be impaired, requiring possible write-off of up to $203.2$285.2 million of intangible assets and up to $512.6$550.0 million of goodwill.

ITEM 3  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


DeVry is subject to occasional lawsuits, administrative proceedings, regulatory reviews and investigations associated with financial assistance programs and other claimsmatters arising in the normal conduct of its business. The following is a description of pending litigation that may be considered other than ordinary and routine litigation that is incidental to the business.


On December 23, 2005, Saro Daghlian, a former DeVry University student in California, commenced a putative class action against DeVry University

The Boca Raton Firefighters’ and DeVry Inc. (collectively “DeVry”) in Los Angeles Superior Court, asserting various claims predicated upon DeVry’s alleged failure to comply with disclosure requirements under the California Education Code relating to the transferability of academic units.   In addition to the alleged omission, Daghlian also claimed that DeVry made untrue or misleading statements to prospective students, in violation of the California Unfair Competition Law ("UCL") and the California False Advertising Law, ("FAL").   DeVry removed the action to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.  In two Orders dated October 9, 2007, and December 31, 2007, the District Court entered judgment dismissing all of  plaintiffs’ class and individual claims and awarded DeVry its cost of suit.  The final judgment was entered on January 3, 2008.  The plaintiffs appealed the dismissal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.  On July 31, 2009, the Ninth Circuit dismissed the appeal as moot, citing the repeal of the statute on which all plaintiffs’ claims had been based.


Beginning in May 2008, the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Division, working with the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, conductedPolice Pension Fund filed an inquiry concerning DeVry’s compliance with Title IV regulations relating to recruiter compensation.  DeVry cooperated fully with the inquiry and on October 16, 2008, was advised by the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois that the government had concluded its inquiry and had declined to intervene in a sealed qui tam case which had precipitated the inquiry.  The False Claims Act case, which was unsealed as a result of the government’s action, had been filed in September 2007 by a former DeVry employee, Jennifer S. Shultz,initial complaint (the “Shareholder Case”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Divisionon November 1, 2010 (Case No. 1:10-cv-07031). The initial complaint was filed on behalf of the government.  A firsta putative class of persons who purchased DeVry common stock between October 25, 2007, and August 13, 2010. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint was unsealed(the “First Amended Complaint”) on March 7, 2011 alleging the same categories of claims in the initial complaint. The plaintiffs claimed in the First Amended Complaint that DeVry, Daniel Hamburger and Richard M. Gunst violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by failing to disclose abusive and fraudulent recruiting and financial aid lending practices, thereby increasing DeVry’s student enrollment and revenues and artificially inflating DeVry’s stock price during the class period. On March 27, 2012, Judge John F. Grady dismissed the First Amended Complaint without prejudice, granting Plaintiffs leave to file a second amended complaint by May 4, 2012.

On May 4, 2012, the Plaintiffs again amended their allegations in the Shareholder Case (the “Second Amended Complaint”). The Second Amended Complaint alleges a longer putative class period of October 27, 2007, to August 11, 2011, but narrows the scope of the alleged fraud significantly as compared to the previous two complaints. Plaintiffs now focus exclusively on DeVry’s practices for compensating student Admissions Advisors, alleging DeVry misled the market by failing to disclose that its compensation practices violated federal law and by making affirmative misrepresentations that DeVry complied with compensation regulations. On July 10, 2012, DeVry filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint, which is awaiting Judge Grady’s consideration.

Three derivative cases similar to the Shareholder Case also have been filed (“Derivative Actions”). Two of the Derivative Actions were filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division: DeVry shareholder Timothy Hald filed a derivative complaint on behalf of DeVry on January 3, 2011 (Hald v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 11 CH 0087) and Matthew Green (also a DeVry shareholder) filed a derivative complaint on behalf of DeVry on January 7, 2011 (Green v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 11 CH 0770). TheHaldandGreencases (the “Consolidated Cases”) were consolidated by court order dated December 31, 2008.  The allegationsFebruary 9, 2011. Maria Dotro,

another DeVry shareholder, filed a third derivative complaint on DeVry’s behalf in the first amended complaint relateDelaware Court of Chancery on March 11, 2011 (Dotro v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 6263). Both the Consolidated cases and theDotrocase have been stayed by agreement of the parties until certain matters are resolved or clarified with respect to whetherthe disposition of the Shareholder Case.

The Derivative Actions allege that Daniel Hamburger, Richard M. Gunst, David J. Pauldine, Sharon Thomas Parrott, Ronald L. Taylor, Lisa W. Pickrum, Darren R. Huston, David S. Brown, William T. Keevan, Fernando Ruiz, Harold T. Shapiro, Lyle Logan, Connie R. Curran, and Julia McGee breached their fiduciary duties to DeVry by failing to disclose the same allegedly abusive and fraudulent recruiting and financial aid lending practices alleged in the Shareholder Case. The Derivative Actions also allege that DeVry’s officers and directors unjustly enriched themselves and wasted DeVry’s assets by (i) causing DeVry to incur substantial costs in defending the Shareholder Case; (ii) causing DeVry to pay compensation plansand benefits to individuals who breached their fiduciary duties; (iii) causing potential losses from “certain of DeVry’s programs no longer being eligible for admission representatives violatedfederal financial aid;” and (iv) damaging DeVry’s corporate image and goodwill. DeVry and its executives and directors believe the Higher Education Actallegations contained in the Derivative Actions are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously.

Although DeVry believes that the Shareholder Case and the Department of Education regulations prohibiting an institution participating in Title IV programs from providing to any person or entity engaged in any student recruitment or admissions activity any commission, bonus or other incentive payment based directly or indirectly on success in securing enrollments.  A number of similar lawsuits have been filed in recent years against educational institutions that receive Title IV funds.  On January 26, 2009, DeVry filed a motion to dismissDerivative Actions are without merit, the first amended complaint entirely.  On March 4, 2009, the District Court granted DeVry’s motion to dismiss, entering judgment and dismissing the case with prejudice.  On March 16, 2009, Shultz appealed the dismissal to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.  On June 23, 2009, a settlement in principle was reached between DeVry and Ms. Shultz in connection with a court-sponsored mediation process whereby DeVry would stand by its consistently-held position denying any wrong doing and pay $4.9 million to finally resolve the matter, and avoid the cost and distraction of a potentially protracted appeals process.  The settlement is conditioned upon obtaining approval of the Department of Justice and finalizing settlement terms that would release DeVry from other False Claims Act cases based upon the conduct covered by the settlement.  DeVry and Ms. Shultz have submitted the settlement to the United States Department of Justice for its approval.  Should the parties fail to conclude the settlement on the proposed or other terms, the appeal to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals will resume.


The ultimate outcome of pending litigation and other proceedings, reviews, investigations and contingencies is difficult to estimate.predict. At this time, DeVry does not expect that the outcome of any such matter including the litigation described above, will have a material effect on its cash flows, results of operations or financial position.

ITEM ITEM 7 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIALCONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion of DeVry’s results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.


OVERVIEW


DeVry’s continued focus on student academic outcomes and execution of its growth and diversification strategy produced solid financial results for fiscal year 20092012 reflect the continued revenue deceleration within DeVry University, Carrington College and Carrington College California, which resulted in a challenging economic environment.  Financialdecline in earnings as compared to the prior year. Management is very focused on improving DeVry’s performance by implementing initiatives that are intended to more closely align its cost structure with student enrollment levels; improve the effectiveness of its student recruiting efforts; and operationalmake targeted investments to drive future growth, particularly within the Medical and Healthcare segment. Operational and financial highlights for the year include:

The continued economic downturn, persistent unemployment and heightened competition have resulted in declining student enrollments at DeVry University, Carrington College and Carrington College California.

During the year, management recorded non-cash impairment charges related to the write-down of identified intangible assets and goodwill at Carrington in the amount of $75.0 million and at Advanced Academics in the amount of $19.4 million.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 include:2012, DeVry recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $7.1 million primarily related to workforce reductions to align its cost structure with enrollments primarily at DeVry University and Carrington Colleges. During fiscal year 2013, DeVry expects to realize expense reductions of $50 million primarily within these educational institutions.


Chamberlain College of Nursing (“Chamberlain”) began offering nursing programs at its new campuses in Miramar, Florida in July 2011, and Indianapolis, Indiana in March 2012. In addition, in May 2012, Chamberlain began teaching courses at its new campus in Cleveland, Ohio.

·Total revenues rose 33.9%, reaching a record high of $1,461.5 million, and record net income of $165.7 million increased 32.0% over the prior year, while at the same time making investments to drive academic quality and future growth.

Chamberlain received approval from the Illinois Board of Higher Education for its doctorate of nursing practitioner program. Also, Chamberlain received approval from the Illinois Board of Higher Education for a Master’s of Science in Nursing program in Healthcare Policy.


DeVry continued to execute on its diversification strategy and completed the acquisition of the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine in August 2011. In February 2012, DeVry acquired Faculdade Boa Viagem (FBV). The acquisition was another step in the process of expanding DeVry Brasil’s presence in the northeast area of the country. In May 2012, DeVry’s Becker Professional Education acquired Falcon Physician Falcon Physician Reviews, which offers comprehensive review programs for medical students preparing for the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and the Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensing Examination (COMLEX).

·As a result of DeVry’s diversification strategy, solid operating performance in its Business, Technology and Management and Medical and Healthcare segments more than offset an earnings decline at its Professional Education and Other Educational Services segments.  The Professional Education segment results continue to reflect the economic downturn and the impact on the financial firms that the segment serves.  The Other Education Services segment results reflect increased investment to drive future enrollment growth at Advanced Academics.

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants released its 2011 Elijah Watt Sells award winners, honoring the candidates with the highest scores on the CPA exam. There were 37 winners, and 31 of them prepared for the exam using Becker’s industry-leading CPA review materials.


DeVry was named an official education partner to the United States Olympic Committee. DeVry University and its Keller Graduate School of Management are providing higher education opportunities at undergraduate and graduate levels, including scholarships and a dedicated DeVry staff, for U.S. Olympic and Paralympic athletes and hopefuls through 2016.

·On September 18, 2008, DeVry acquired the operations of U.S. Education, the parent organization of Apollo College and Western Career College, for $290 million.  Apollo College and Western Career College operate 18 campus locations in the western United States and prepare students for careers in the healthcare sector.

DeVry completed its sixth share repurchase program during fiscal year 2012. In December 2011, DeVry began repurchasing shares of its common stock under its seventh share repurchase program, which was approved by its Board of Directors in November 2011. During fiscal year 2012, DeVry repurchased approximately 4,258,000 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $37.13 per share.


DeVry’s financial position remained strong generating $277.4 million of operating cash flow during fiscal year 2012. As of June 30, 2012, cash and marketable securities balances totaled $176.7 million with no debt outstanding.

·On April 1, 2009, DeVry acquired an 82.3% majority stake in Fanor for $40.4 million.  Fanor is a leading provider of private postsecondary education in northeastern Brazil.  Fanor serves more than 10,000 students through undergraduate and graduate programs focused in business management, law and engineering.  This acquisition marks DeVry’s entry into South America and further diversifies its geographic presence.

·In connection with its real estate optimization strategy, DeVry bought-out a portion of the lease for its DeVry University Campus in Long Island City, New York.  In connection with this transaction, DeVry recorded an after tax charge of $2.5 million, or $0.04 per share.  This action favorably impacts pre-tax operating income by approximately $1.9 million per year through the end of the lease in April 2014.

·During November 2008, DeVry began repurchasing shares of its common stock under a $50 million repurchase program, which was approved by its Board of Directors in May 2008.  During fiscal year 2009, DeVry repurchased 707,533 shares at a total cost of approximately $33.7 million.

·DeVry’s financial position remained strong as it generated $249.6 million of operating cash flow during fiscal year 2009, driven primarily by strong operating results. As of June 30, 2009, cash, marketable securities and investment balances totaled $225.4 million and outstanding borrowings were $124.8 million.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND SUPPLEMENTAL RECONCILIATION SCHEDULE


As described in Note 8

During fiscal year 2012, DeVry recorded impairment charges related to the financial statements, DeVry executed certain real estate transactions in fiscal years 2007, 2008its Carrington Colleges Group reporting unit and 2009, which resulted in significant lease termination charges and, losses and gains on the sales of facilities.   As discussed in Note 9,its Advanced Academics reporting unit. In addition, DeVry recorded a restructuring charge for certainprimarily related to workforce reductions in fiscal year 2007.  Also, as discussed in Note 14,to align its cost structure with enrollments at DeVry University and Carrington Colleges. DeVry also recorded a litigation settlement reserve in fiscal year 2009.gain from the sale of Becker’s Stalla CFA review operations. The following table illustrates the effects of the real estate transactions, separation plan severanceimpairment charges, restructuring charge and litigation settlement reservegain on the sale of assets on DeVry’s earnings. Management believes that the non-GAAP disclosure of net income and earnings per share excluding these discrete items provides investors with useful supplemental information regarding the underlying business trends and performance of DeVry’s ongoing operations and areis useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations given the discrete nature of the real estate transactions, separation plan severanceimpairment and litigation settlement reserve.restructuring charges and gain on the sale of assets. DeVry uses these supplemental financial measures internally in its management and budgeting process. However, thethese non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, DeVry’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table reconciles these itemsnon-GAAP measures to the relevantmost directly comparable GAAP information (in thousands, except per share data):

·Business, Technology and Management: previously named DeVry University segment and comprised of DeVry University and Advanced Academics.  This segment is now comprised solely of DeVry University.
·Medical and Healthcare: comprised of Ross University, Chamberlain College of Nursing and U.S. Education
·Professional Education: comprised of Becker Professional Education
·Other Educational Services: newly formed segment comprised of Advanced Academics and Fanor

REVENUES


Total consolidated revenues for fiscal 2009year 2012 of $1,461.5$2,089.8 million increased $369.6decreased $92.6 million, or 33.9%4.2%, as compared to last year. Revenues increased at all fourdecreased within DeVry’s Business, Technology and Management segment as a result of a decline in student enrollments and an increase in scholarships due to the challenging economic environment, persistent unemployment and heightened competition. This decrease was partially offset by revenue increases within DeVry’s businessMedical and Healthcare and International, K-12 and Professional Education segments as a result of continued growth in total student enrollments, improved student retention and tuition price increases. In addition, U.S. Education,AUC, which was acquired on September 18, 2008,August 3, 2011, and Fanor,FBV, which was acquired on April 1, 2009,February 29, 2012 contributed ato offsetting the revenue decline during fiscal year 2012.

Management expects that total of $150.7 million of revenue growthrevenues will be slightly down for fiscal year 2013 as compared to fiscal year 2012, driven largely by the impact from declines in new student enrollments within DeVry University and Carrington experienced in fiscal year 2009.  The2012, partially offset by anticipated revenue growth ratewithin DeVry’s other educational institutions. Management believes that fiscal years 2014 through 2016 will represent a period of recovery and growth for Becker Professional Education slowed significantly during fiscal year 2009 due to the economic downturn.

Management believes

Effective with the increased undergraduate student enrollments were most significantly impacted by DeVry’s strong track record of high-quality education and career outcomes, improved marketing and recruiting efforts, continued strong demand forsummer 2011 term, DeVry University’s online programsU.S. undergraduate tuition is $597 per credit hour for students enrolling in 1 to 11 credit hours. Tuition is $360 per credit hour for each credit hour in excess of 11 credit hours. These tuition rates represent an increase of approximately 2.9% as compared to the summer 2010 term. These amounts do not include the cost of books, supplies, transportation and a heightened focus onliving expenses.

Effective with the retention of existing students.  Management believes efforts to enhance theJuly 2011 session, Keller Graduate School of Management brand awareness through improved messaging have produced positive graduate enrollment results.program tuition per course is $2,255. This represents an expected weighted average increase of 2.8% compared to the year-ago session.

Management believes the decreases in enrollments were driven primarily by the negative impact on student decision making of the prolonged economic downturn and persistent unemployment, resulting in a reduction in interest from potential students. In addition, management believes the recent distraction of DeVry University employees associated with the implementation of new regulations in July 2011, along with heightened competition also contributed to the decreases in DeVry University undergraduate enrollments.

To address these issues, DeVry University is enhancing the effectiveness of its recruiting efforts. During the third quarter, DeVry University provided additional training to its admissions advisors on revisions that were made to their performance management system stemming from the implementation of new regulations in July 2011. It is also making investments to enhance the strength of its brand, improve customer service and increase awareness among potential students through new and innovative advertising campaigns. DeVry University is also making targeted investments in new programs to drive future growth. In addition, management made the decision to invest more heavily in scholarships and grants to help DeVry University’s students achieve their academic goals. This decision was made in order to assist our students in difficult economic downturn hastimes and in reaction to recent changes to the Pell grant program that now provides students with funds for two semesters per year, rather than three. Since students were not going to be receiving the funds they previously had a small, but positive, impact on enrollments, as individuals have returnedunder the Pell program, management made the decision to post-secondary education for job re-tooling. Also contributingutilize DeVry’s financial flexibility to higher total revenuesoffer scholarships to support those students.

Medical and Healthcare


Medical and Healthcare segment revenues increased 113.6%9.6% to $362.7$612.0 million in fiscal year 20092012 as compared to the prior year. U.S. Education, which was acquired on September 18, 2008, contributed $141.7 of revenue growth in fiscal year 2009.   Excluding the impact of the acquisition, fiscal year 2009 segment revenues grew 30.1% over the prior year. In addition, increases inHigher total student enrollments and tuition rates at both Ross University and Chamberlain College of Nursing (“Chamberlain”) alsoand DeVry Medical International were the key drivers of the segment revenue growth, which more than offset a decline in total student enrollments at Carrington Colleges Group (“Carrington”). In addition, AUC, which was acquired on August 3, 2011, contributed to the revenue growth in the segment revenue growth.during the current year periods. Key trends for DeVry Medical International (which is composed of Ross University Schools of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine and American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine), Chamberlain and U.S. EducationCarrington are set forth below.

Continued demand for medical doctors and veterinarians positively influenced career decisions of new students towards these respective fields of study. Management believes that the increasing enrollmentshistorical enrollment increases at Ross University for the past several termsDeVry Medical International resulted from the solidstrong reputation of its academic programs and student outcomes, enhancements made to its marketing and recruiting functions, as well as steps taken to meet increasing student demand such as adding faculty classrooms, and aclassrooms.

Excluding the impact of the AUC acquisition, new student centerenrollment for the September 2011 semester increased 34.9%, as compared to the prior year semester, overlapping a 26.4% decrease in the new student growth rate in the prior year. Excluding the impact of the AUC acquisition, new student enrollment for the January 2012 semester decreased 19.9%, as compared to the prior year semester, as a result of capacity constraints at the Ross University School of Medicine campus in Dominica. Ross continues to invest in its Dominica facilities, programs and gymnasium.


student services to meet the strong demand for its medical program.

The increasedecreases in new student enrollments in the September 2011, January 2012 and May 2012 terms at Chamberlain were driven by increased competition for its online RN to BSN program. Chamberlain also faced tough year over year comparisons, with a 42% new student enrollment growth in November 2010. Chamberlain’s onsite pre-licensure programs continued to grow as did new student enrollments in its master’s degree programs. Total student enrollment growth at Chamberlain was the result of ongoing investments in new programs and locations, including the addition of three new locations (Houston in March 2011; Miramar, Florida, in July 2011; and Indianapolis in March 2012), along with organic growth at existing locations.

Management believes the decline in student enrollments at Chamberlain was attributableCarrington is the result of the impact of the prolonged economic downturn and persistent unemployment, which has resulted in reductions in the volume of inquiries from potential students. To address these issues, Carrington continues to execute a turnaround plan, which includes increasing its growing RN-to-BSN online completion programfocus on building Carrington’s brand awareness, optimizing its marketing approach to emphasize the development of internally-generated inquiries, and the openingimproving its recruiting process through its new student contact center.

International, K-12 and Professional Education


International, K-12 and Professional Education segment revenues rose 3.8%6.3% to $84.2$174.3 million in fiscal year 20092012 as compared to the prior year. TheDeVry Brasil was the primary reason for the increase in revenues was a tuition price increasedriver of approximately 5% partially offset by a decline in enrollments in CFA review courses and self-study CPA review courses.  The revenue growth rate for the Professional Educationin this segment slowed during fiscal year 2009due to new and total student enrollment growth as compared to the year-ago period due to the economic downturn, particularly among the financial firms that the segment serves.  Management expects that the softness in revenue will persist at least through calendar 2009.


Other Educational Services

Other Educational Services segment revenues grew by $17.0 million or 210.4% to $25.1 million in fiscal year 2009 as compared to the prior year.  The primary reason for the increase was continued enrollment growth at Advanced Academics.periods. In addition, Fanor,FBV, which was acquired on February 29, 2012, contributed to the revenue growth in the segment during the third quarter. Revenues increased slightly at Becker during fiscal year 2012 as a result of increased demand for its CPA live and online instruction. In addition, Becker’s acquisition of Falcon Physician Reviews on April 1, 2009,2, 2012, also contributed $8.9 million ofto revenue growth. Revenues declined at Advanced Academics during the fiscal year due to school district budget constraints. Key enrollment trends for DeVry Brasil are set forth below.

DeVry Brasil new student enrollment by term:

Increased by 29.2% from fall 2010 (2,347 students) to fall 2011 (3,033 students); and


Increased by 46.1% from spring 2010 (3,833 students) to spring 2012 (5,599 students). The acquisition of FBV accounted for 1,263 new student enrollments in the current year period. Excluding the impact of the FBV acquisition, new student enrollments grew by 13.1%.

DeVry Brasil total student enrollment by term:

Increased by 17.8% from fall 2010 (11,972 students) to fall 2011 (14,099 students); and

Increased by 55.6% from spring 2011 (13,688 students) to spring 2012 (21,297 students). The acquisition of FBV accounted for 5,421 total student enrollments in the current year period. Excluding the impact of the FBV acquisition, total student enrollments grew by 16.0%.

COSTS AND EXPENSES


Cost of Educational Services


The largest component of Cost of Educational Services is the cost of faculty and employees who support educational operations. This expense category also includes the costs of facilities, adjunct faculty, supplies, bookstore and other educational materials, student education-related support activities, and the provision for uncollectible student accounts.


DeVry’s Cost of Educational Services increased 33.1%5.4% to $669.7$975.6 million during fiscal year 20092012 as compared to the prior year. U.S. Education, which was acquired by DeVry on September 18, 2008,The acquisitions of AUC, FBV, ATC International and Fanor, which was acquired on April 1, 2009Falcon Physician Reviews, accounted for more than halftwo-thirds of the increase during fiscal year 2012. In addition, cost increases were also incurred in support of operating a higher number of campus locations for Chamberlain and DeVry Brasil as compared to the prior year. These increases were partially offset by lower Costs of Educational Services within DeVry University and Carrington Colleges as a result of savings from cost reduction measures (workforce reductions and deferred project spending). Expense attributed to stock-based awards included in Cost of Educational Services increased during fiscal year 2009.2012 as a result of an increase in the number stock awards granted to retirement eligible employees, which are fully expensed upon grant.

As a percentage of revenue, Cost of Educational Services increased to 46.7% in fiscal year 2012 from 42.4% during the prior year period. The increase was the combined result of decreased operating leverage due to revenue declines primarily at DeVry University and Carrington, and the impact from incremental investments to maintain the high quality of DeVry’s educational offerings and new campus openings at Chamberlain and DeVry Brasil to drive future enrollment growth.

For fiscal year 2013, management expects that DeVry’s Cost of Educational Services will increase as compared to fiscal year 2012 as a result of the impact of acquisitions made in fiscal year 2012 and continued investment to open new locations and support growing enrollments at Chamberlain and DeVry Brasil. Management expects that Cost of Educational Services will decrease within DeVry University, Carrington Colleges and Advanced Academics in fiscal year 2013 and compared to fiscal year 2012.

Student Services and Administrative Expense

This expense category includes student admissions, marketing and advertising costs, general and administrative costs, expenses associated with curriculum development, and the amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets related to acquisitions of businesses.

Student Services and Administrative Expense grew 6.0% to $808.4 million during fiscal year 2012 as compared to the year-ago period. The acquisitions of AUC, FBV, ATC International and Falcon Physician Reviews, accounted for more than one-third of the increase during fiscal year 2012. The remainder of the increase in expenses represented additional investments in advertising and recruiting to drive enrollment growth and incremental marketing expenses associated with operating a higher number of Chamberlain and DeVry Brasil campus locations as compared to the year ago periods. In addition, cost increases were incurred in student services and home office support personnel. These increases were partially offset by savings from cost reduction measures including deferred hiring and workforce reductions.

Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets in connection with acquisitions of businesses increased during fiscal year 2012 as compared to the year-ago period due to the acquisitions of AUC, FBV, ATC International and Falcon Physician Reviews. Amortization expense is included entirely in the Student Services and Administrative Expense category.

As a percentage of revenue, Student Services and Administrative Expense increased to 38.7% in fiscal year 2012 from 34.9% during the year-ago period. The increase was the combined result of decreased operating leverage from declining enrollments and incremental investments, which include advertising, student services and home office support personnel.

Asset Impairment Charge

During fiscal year 2012, DeVry recorded non-cash asset impairments totaling $94.4 million, which were comprised of $75.0 million related to its Carrington reporting unit and $19.4 million relating to its Advanced Academics reporting unit. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, revenues and operating income for DeVry’s Carrington Colleges Group reporting unit were significantly below management’s expectations driven primarily by a larger than expected decline in new student enrollments. Carrington’s revenue declined 27% during the second quarter as compared to the prior year. As a result of the significant decrease in revenue, Carrington generated an operating loss in the second quarter as compared to operating income in the year-ago period. To improve Carrington’s financial results, management is executing a turn-around plan which includes which includes increasing its focus on building Carrington’s brand awareness, optimizing its marketing approach to emphasize the development of internally-generated inquiries, and improving its recruiting process through its new student contact center. Carrington is also making additional investments in its website interface and admissions processes to better serve prospective students. Though management believes its planned business and operational strategies will reverse this negative trend there is increased uncertainty as to the timing of this reversal. Accordingly, management revised its forecast and future cash flow projections for Carrington, and performed an interim impairment analysis. As a result, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, DeVry recorded a non-cash asset impairment charge of $75 million related to its Carrington reporting unit.

At Advanced Academics, revenue was significantly below management’s expectation during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, as a result of decreased funding for large school districts served by Advanced Academics. Advanced Academics revenue declined 46.4% during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 and the reporting unit generated an operating loss of $5.0 million as compared to operating income of $2.1 million in the year-ago quarter. As a result of the decline in revenue and in connection with DeVry’s annual impairment analysis, management revised its forecast and future cash flow projections for Advanced Academics, which resulted in an estimated fair market value which was below its book value. As a result, DeVry recorded a non-cash asset impairment charge of $19.4 million. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012, for additional disclosure on the impairment analyses.

Restructuring Charge

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, DeVry implemented an involuntary reduction in force (RIF) that reduced its workforce by approximately 570 positions across all reporting units. This resulted in a pre-tax charge of approximately $7.1 million that primarily represented severance pay and benefits for these employees. This was allocated to the segments as follows: $5.0 million to Business Technology and Management, $2.0 million to Medical and Healthcare and $0.1 million to International, K-12 and Professional Education.

Cash payments for the severance charges and restructuring charges were approximately $1.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2012. The remaining $5.7 is accrued as of June 30, 2012, and is expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

OPERATING INCOME

Total consolidated operating income for fiscal year 2012 of $204.2 million decreased $289.9 million, or 58.7%, as compared to the prior year. The largest driver of the decline in operating income during fiscal year 2012 was $94.4 million non-cash asset impairment charge. In addition, revenue declines at DeVry University, Carrington Colleges, Advanced Academics and the restructuring charge also contributed to the decline in operating income. Operating income decreased within all three of DeVry’s respective segments.

Business, Technology and Management

Business, Technology and Management segment operating income decreased 44.0% to $201.1 million during fiscal year 2012, as compared to the prior year. The decrease in operating income was the result of lower revenue and decreased operating leverage and a restructuring charge of $5.0 million (as discussed earlier). Management continues to mitigate the effects of this challenging environment by aligning its cost structure with student enrollments while also targeting investments in growth initiatives such as new programs.

Medical and Healthcare

Medical and Healthcare segment operating income decreased 91.0% to $9.6 million during fiscal year 2012 as compared to the prior year. The decrease in operating income was the result of an operating loss at Carrington and an asset impairment charge of $75.0 million (as discussed earlier), which was partially offset by an increase in operating income at both Chamberlain and Ross University Schools of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine and the incremental contribution to operating income from AUC. Carrington generated an operating loss of as compared to operating income of in fiscal year 2011, as a result of lower student enrollments as compared to the year ago period, partially offset by cost reduction measures. Excluding the asset impairment and restructuring charges, the Medical and Healthcare segment operating income declined 19.0% to $86.6 million during fiscal year 2012.

International, K-12 and Professional Education

International, K-12 and Professional Education segment operating income decreased 89.3% to $3.5 million during fiscal year 2012 as compared to the prior year. The decrease in operating income was the result of an operating loss and an asset impairment charge of $19.4 million at Advanced Academics (as discussed earlier), which was partially offset by an increase in operating income at DeVry Brasil, including the incremental contribution to operating income from FBV. Advanced Academics recorded an operating loss during fiscal year 2012 greater than the operating loss in the prior year as a result of lower student enrollments as compared to the year ago period. Excluding the asset impairment and restructuring charges, the International, K-12 and Professional Education segment operating income declined 29.6% to $23.0 million during fiscal year 2012.

NET INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Interest income decreased 46.8% to $0.8 million during fiscal year 2012 as compared to the prior year. Interest income decreased because of lower interest rates earned and a lower level of invested balances during fiscal year 2012. The decrease in invested cash balances was the result of cash used for the acquisitions of AUC, FBV and Falcon Physician Reviews, a decrease in operating cash flow due to decreased profitability, and increased share repurchases over the past year.

Interest expense increased 103.7% to $2.6 million during fiscal year 2012 as compared to the prior year. Interest expense increased due to higher commitment fees and amortization of deferred financing costs related to DeVry’s $400 million revolving line of credit which was entered into during May 2011.

During fiscal year 2012, DeVry recorded a $3.7 million pre-tax gain from the sale of Becker’s Stalla CFA review operations in December 2012. For fiscal year 2012, revenues generated from the Stalla CFA Review represented less than 0.5% of total DeVry revenues, and assets attributable to Stalla comprised less than 0.5% of total DeVry assets at the time of divestiture. The business operations and management of the Stalla CFA Review were combined with other Becker Professional Education program offerings, and as such, Stalla did not have separately identifiable cash flows. Accordingly, management has concluded that treatment of the Stalla divestiture as a discontinued operation is not required.

INCOME TAXES

Taxes on income were 30.9% of pretax income for fiscal year 2012, compared to 33.1% for the prior year. The lower effective tax rate in fiscal year 2012 was attributable to a lesser proportion of pre-tax income being generated by DeVry’s U.S. operations versus its international operations in the current year as compared to the prior year.

DeVry’s effective income tax rate reflects benefits derived from significant operations outside the United States. Earnings of these international operations are not subject to U.S. federal or state income taxes, so long as such earnings are not repatriated, as discussed below. Four of our subsidiaries, Ross University School of Medicine (the Medical School) incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Dominica, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (the Veterinary School) incorporated under the laws of the Federation of St. Christopher, Nevis, St. Kitts in the West Indies, and DeVry Brasil incorporated under the laws of Brazil, and AUC School of Medicine BV (AUC) incorporated under the laws of Sint Maarten all benefit from local tax incentives. The Medical and Veterinary Schools have agreements with the respective governments that exempt them from local income taxation through the years 2043 and 2023, respectively, while DeVry Brasil’s effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from their participation in PROUNI, a Brazilian program for providing scholarships to a portion of its undergraduate students. AUC’s effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from investment incentives.

DeVry intends to indefinitely reinvest international earnings and cash flow to improve and expand facilities and operations at the Medical and Veterinary schools and DeVry Brasil, and pursue other business opportunities outside the United States. Accordingly, DeVry has not recorded a provision for the payment of U.S. income taxes on these earnings.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 VS. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2010

REVENUES

Total consolidated revenues for fiscal year 2011 of $2,182.4 million increased $267.2 million, or 14.0%, as compared to fiscal year 2010. Revenues increased within all three of DeVry’s business segments as a result of growth in student enrollments, improved student retention and tuition price increases. DeVry’s revenue growth rate decelerated from 18.7% during the first half of fiscal year 2011 to 9.7% during the second half of the fiscal year mainly as a result of declining new student enrollments at DeVry University and Carrington.

Business, Technology and Management

During fiscal year 2011, Business, Technology and Management segment revenues increased by 15.6% to $1,460.1 million as compared to fiscal year 2010 driven primarily growth in total student enrollments, tuition price increases, and improved student retention. The Business, Technology and Management segment is composed solely of DeVry University. Key trends in enrollment and tuition pricing are set forth below.

Graduate coursetaker enrollment, including the Keller Graduate School of Management:

The term “coursetaker” refers to the number of courses taken by a student. Thus, one student taking two courses is counted as two coursetakers.

Increased by 17.6% from the July 2009 session (17,991 coursetakers) to the July 2010 session (21,165 coursetakers);

Increased by 14.1% from the September 2009 session (20,496 coursetakers) to the September 2010 session (23,389 coursetakers);

Tuition rates:

Effective July 2010, DeVry University’s U.S. undergraduate tuition ranged from $580 to $600 per credit hour for students enrolling in 1 to 11 credit hours. Tuition ranged from $350 to $360 per credit hour for each credit hour in excess of 11 credit hours. These tuition rates varied by location and/or program and represent a weighted average increase of approximately 3.5% as compared to the year-ago period. These amounts do not include the cost of books, supplies, transportation, and living expenses.

Effective July 2010, Keller Graduate School of Management program tuition per classroom course ranged from $2,100 to $2,225, depending on location. This represented an expected weighted average increase of 2.1% as compared to the year-ago period. The price for a graduate course taken online was $2,225, compared to $2,200 previously.

Management believes the decreases in enrollments were driven mainly by the negative impact on student decision making of the prolonged economic downturn and economic conditions generally, resulting in a reduction of interest from potential students. In addition, management believes the recent distraction of DeVry University employees associated with the implementation of new regulations also contributed to the decreases in DeVry University undergraduate enrollments.

Medical and Healthcare

Medical and Healthcare segment revenues increased 10.1% to $558.3 million in fiscal year 2011 as compared to the prior year. Higher total student enrollments at Chamberlain College of Nursing (“Chamberlain”) and Ross University were the key drivers of the segment revenue growth, which more than offset a decline in total student enrollments at Carrington Colleges Group, Inc. (“Carrington”). Key trends for Ross University, Chamberlain and Carrington are set forth below.

Ross University total enrollment by term:

Increased by 2.1% from May 2009 (4,448 students) to May 2010 (4,542 students);

Decreased by 33. 6% from July 2010 (4,291 students) to July 2011 (2,850 students).

Tuition rates:

Effective September 2010, tuition and fees for the beginning basic sciences portion of the programs at the Ross University medical and veterinary schools were $15,600 and $15,000, respectively, per semester. This tuition rate represented an increase from September 2009 tuition rates of approximately 6.4% for the medical school and 4.3% for the veterinary school. These amounts do not include the cost of books, supplies, transportation and living expenses.

Effective September 2010, tuition and fees for the clinical portion of the programs at the Ross university medical and veterinary schools were $17,125 per semester for the medical school, and $18,850 per semester for the veterinary school. This represented an increase from September 2009 tuition rates of approximately 6.4% for the medical school and 4.4% for the veterinary school. These amounts do not include the cost of books, supplies, transportation, and living expenses.

Effective July 2010, tuition for the 2010-2011 academic year was $620 per credit hour for students enrolled in Chamberlain’s BSN (onsite), ADN and LPN-to-RN programs. Students enrolled on a full-time basis (between 12 and 17 credit hours) were charged a flat tuition amount of $7,440 per semester. This represented an increase from 2009-2010 academic year tuition rates of approximately 4.2%. These amounts do not include the cost of books, supplies, transportation and living expenses.

Effective July 2010, tuition for students enrolled in Chamberlain’s RN-to-BSN online degree program was $575 per credit hour. This tuition rate was unchanged from the 2009-2010 academic year. Tuition for the 2010-2011 academic year was $650 per credit hour for students enrolled in the online MSN program. These amounts do not include the cost of books, supplies, transportation, and living expenses.

Effective July 2010, on a per credit hour basis, tuition for Carrington College and Carrington College California programs ranged from $254 per credit hour to $1,651 per credit hour for non-general education courses, with the wide range due to the nature of the programs. General Education courses were charged at $325 per credit hour at Carrington College, and $364 per credit hour at Carrington College California. Student tuition is reduced accordingly for any incoming academic credits that are applicable. Students are charged a non-refundable registration fee ranging from $95 to $100, and they are also charged separately for books and special (program specific) supplies and/or testing. A student services fee ranging from $75 to $150 is charged at Carrington College as well, depending on the program.

An element of the growth strategy at Ross University School of Medicine was the planned development of a clinical education center located in Freeport, Grand Bahama. The Freeport site was expected to mitigate capacity constraints at the main campus in

Dominica. However, the projected volume of Ross students studying in Freeport has not been realized due to factors including an unforeseen delay in the Medical Board of California licensing review process and delays in confirming the financial aid implications for students studying in Freeport. In November 2010, Ross University School of Medicine secured licensing approval for its Freeport clinical location from the Medical Board of California. It had been Ross’ understanding that medical students would not be eligible to receive Title IV financial aid for their semesters in Freeport, but would be eligible to receive financial aid once they moved elsewhere to complete the remaining portions of their programs. However, this understanding was contradicted in a letter to the Ross University School of Medicine from the U.S. Department of Education (“ED”) indicating that Ross medical students attending any portion of their Foundation of Medicine program outside of the Ross’ Dominica campus would be excluded from participating in the Title IV financial aid program for the remainder of their programs. Currently, Ross University School of Medicine is delivering only its pre-medical review program courses at its Freeport location, while it continues to evaluate how best to utilize the location as part of its overall expansion strategy.

These near-term challenges resulted in lower new student enrollments in the May 2010, September 2010, and January 2011 semesters. New student enrollments for the May 2011 semester increased 37.9% as compared to the prior year period, overlapping a 39.5% decrease in the new student growth rate in prior year.

Ross continues to invest in its Dominica facilities, programs and student services to meet the strong demand for its medical program.

The increase in student enrollments at Chamberlain was attributable to its growing RN-to-BSN online completion program, the addition of three new locations (Arlington, Virginia and Chicago in July 2010 and Houston, Texas in March 2011), along with organic growth at existing locations. In July 2011, Chamberlain began offering its nursing programs at its new campus in Miramar, Florida. All of these campuses are co-located with DeVry University.

Management believes the decline in student enrollments at Carrington is the result of the impact of the prolonged economic downturn, which has resulted in reductions in the volume of inquiries from potential students. To address these issues, Carrington has implemented improvements to its marketing and recruiting processes. Carrington is also making additional investments in enhancing its students’ academic experience.

International, K-12 and Professional Education

International, K-12 and Professional Education segment revenues rose 13.3% to $163.9 million in fiscal year 2011 as compared to fiscal year 2010. DeVry Brasil was the primary driver of revenue growth in this segment due to new student enrollment growth of 41.0% and total student enrollment growth of 16.1% in the most recent term. Becker Professional Education revenues grew during fiscal year 2011 as demand for Becker’s CPA review courses improved. In addition, Becker’s acquisition of ATC International on April 30, 2011, also contributed to revenue growth. Revenue increased modestly at Advanced Academics during fiscal year 2011.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Cost of Educational Services

The largest component of Cost of Educational Services is the cost of faculty and employees who support educational operations. This expense category also includes the costs of facilities, adjunct faculty, supplies, bookstore and other educational materials, student education-related support activities, and the provision for uncollectible student accounts.

DeVry’s Cost of Educational Services increased 12.0% to $925.5 million during fiscal year 2011 as compared to fiscal year 2010. Cost increases were also incurred in support of expanding DeVry University online and onsite total student enrollments and operating a higher number of DeVry University locations as compared to the prior year. In addition, higher costs were incurred to support increasing student enrollments and capacity expansion to drive future growth at Ross University.  During the third quarter of fiscal 2009, Ross University began teaching courses at its newly opened clinical training center in Freeport, Grand Bahama.  Also, cost increases were incurred for the operation of two additionalthe new Chamberlain campuses which began offering programs in March 2008Chicago, Arlington, Virginia, and Houston, Texas, and to support growing online student enrollments. Cost increases were incurred at Carrington associated with operating a newly opened campus in Jacksonville, Florida, which began offering programs in July 2009.higher number of locations as compared to the prior year and increased hiring of career services employees. Expense attributed to stock-based awards included in Cost of Educational Services increased during fiscal year 20092011 as a result of an increase in the fair value of thenumber stock awards granted during the current year and an increase in the number of awards to retirement eligible employees, which are fully expensed upon grant.


Clinical rotation costs for Ross University medical students are included in Cost of Educational Services.  Over the past several years, Ross University has entered into long-term contracts with a hospital group to secure clinical rotations for its students at fixed rates in exchange for prepayment of the rotation fees.   Under the contracts, the established rate-per-clinical rotation was being deducted from the prepaid balance and charged to expense as the medical students utilized the clinical clerkships.   Recently, the hospital group closed two of its hospitals due to financial difficulties.  To date, the hospital group has provided Ross with a limited number of additional clinical clerkships at its remaining hospital, but not nearly enough to offset the void created by the closure of its other two hospitals.  During April 2009, Ross filed a lawsuit against the hospital group to enforce the contract.  The suit seeks specific performance of the hospital group’s obligations to provide Ross with the prepaid clinical clerkships.  As of June 30, 2009, the outstanding balance of prepaid clinical rotations with this hospital group was approximately $8.1 million.  Though Ross has a contractual right to utilize other clinical rotations within the hospital group’s system, given the business uncertainty of this situation, a reserve of $1.5 million was provided against the prepaid balance during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009.

2011 compared to the prior period.

As a percentpercentage of revenue, Cost of Educational Services decreased to 45.8%42.4% in fiscal year 20092011 from 46.1%43.1% during the priorfiscal year period.2010. The decrease was the combined result of increased operating leverage with existing facilities and staff and revenue gains, which more than offset incremental investments to maintain the high quality of DeVry’s educational offerings and to drivesupport future revenuestudent enrollment growth.


Loss on Real Estate Transactions

In September 2007, DeVry executed sale leaseback transactions for its facilities in Seattle, Washington; Phoenix, Arizona; and Alpharetta, Georgia. In connection with these transactions, DeVry recorded a pre-tax loss of $3.7 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.  The recorded net loss on the sale of the facilities was separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and was related to the DeVry University reportable segment.

In January 2009, DeVry entered into an agreement to buyout the lease for approximately 40 percent of the space DeVry University occupied at its Long Island City, New York, campus.  In connection with this transaction, DeVry recorded a pre-tax charge of approximately $4.0 million. The charge was composed of a $2.7 million cash outlay and a non-cash charge of $1.3 million related to the write-off of leasehold improvements, net of a deferred rent credit. After-tax, the charge was $2.5 million or $0.04 per share. This action favorably impacts future pre-tax operating income by approximately $1.9 million per year through the end of the lease, which expires in April 2014, and has a cash payback of less than two years.

These transactions were executed as a part of DeVry’s real estate optimization strategy, which involves evaluating DeVry’s current facilities and locations in order to ensure the optimal mix of large campuses, small campuses and DeVry University centers to meet the demand of the markets it serves.  This process also improves capacity utilization and enhances economic value.  This strategy may include actions such as reconfiguring large campuses; renegotiating lease terms; sub-leasing excess space and relocating to smaller locations within the same geographic area to increase market penetration.  DeVry will also consider co-locating other educational offerings of U.S. Education and Chamberlain College of Nursing at DeVry University campuses.  Future actions under this program could result in accounting gains and/or losses depending upon real estate market conditions, including whether the facilities involved are owned or leased, with the ultimate goal being to drive economic value.

Litigation Settlement Reserve

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, DeVry recorded an accrual of $4.9 million for a litigation settlement that has been reached in principle but is conditioned upon obtaining governmental approval.  See the Contingencies section of Management’s Discussion of Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional discussion of this matter.

Student Services and Administrative Expense


This expense category includes student recruitingadmissions, marketing and advertising costs, general and administrative costs, expenses associated with curriculum development, and the amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets related to acquisitions of businesses.


Student Services and Administrative Expense grew 29.7%12.5% to $548.1$762.7 million during fiscal year 20092011 as compared to the prior year.year-ago period. The fiscal year 2009 acquisitions of U.S. Education and Fanor accounted for nearly one-third of the increase in Student Services and Administrative Expense.  The balance of the increase in expenses primarily represented additional investments in advertising and recruiting to drive and support future growth in new student enrollments. In addition, cost increases were incurred in information technology and student services. Expense attributed to stock-based awards included in Student Services and Administrative Expense increased during fiscal year 20092011 as a result of an increase in the fair valuenumber of thestock awards granted during the current year compared to the prior year period.

Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets in connection with acquisitions of businesses decreased during fiscal year 2011 as compared to the year-ago period, as the respective student relationships and an increasetrade names from the Carrington acquisition were fully amortized as of December 31, 2009. Amortization expense is included entirely in the number of awards to retirement eligible employees, which are fully expensed upon grant.


Student Services and Administrative Expense category.

As a percentpercentage of revenue, Student Services and Administrative Expense decreased to 37.5%34.9% in fiscal year 20092011 from 38.7%35.4% during the prior year. TheThis decrease was the combined result of increased operating leverage from advertising and student recruiting costs, which more than offset incremental investments in student services and home office support personnel.


Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets in connection with acquisitions of businesses increased during fiscal year 2009 as compared to the year ago period.  Increased amortization of finite-lived intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of U.S. Education and Fanor was partially offset by a decrease in amortization of finite-lived intangible assets related to Ross University and Chamberlain, as such assets are fully amortized.  Amortization expense is included entirely in the Student Services and Administrative Expense category.

OPERATING INCOME


Total consolidated operating income for fiscal year 20092011 of $234.8$494.2 million increased $72.5$83.3 million, or 44.7%20.3%, as compared to the prior year. Operating income increased at DeVry’s respective Business, Technology and ManagementInternational, K-12 and Medical and HealthcareProfessional Education segments. These increases were partially offset by a decline in operating profitincome at DeVry’s Professional EducationMedical and Other Educational Services segments.


Healthcare segment.

Business, Technology and Management


Business, Technology and Management segment operating income increased 53.1%23.5% to $126.9$359.4 million during fiscal year 2009,2011, as compared to the prior year. These increases in operating income were the result of higher revenue and an increase in operating leverage, while at the same time, DeVry University continued to make investments in academic quality and student service to drive future enrollment growth.

Medical and Healthcare

Medical and Healthcare segment operating income decreased 3.7% to $107.0 million during fiscal year 2011 as compared to the prior year. The decrease in operating income was the result of a decline in operating income at both Ross University and Carrington, which was partially offset by an increase in operating income at Chamberlain. Ross University operating income declined slightly due to lower new student enrollments, as discussed above, and investments to increase capacity. Carrington operating income decreased as a result of lower student enrollments as compared to the year ago period.

International, K-12 and Professional Education

International, K-12 and Professional Education segment operating income grew 64.4% to $32.7 million during fiscal year 2011 as compared to the prior year. The increase in operating income was the result of higherimproved revenue and gross margins, which were partially offset by increased spending on advertising and recruiting as compared to the prior year.  Fiscal year 2009 results include a $4.9 litigation settlement reserve and a $4.0 million pre-tax charge related to the buy-out of a portion of a lease of thegrowth at DeVry University campus in Long Island City, New York.  Fiscal year 2008 results included a $3.7 million pre-tax loss from sale leaseback transactions.   Excluding the impact of the litigation settlement reserve and real estate transactions in both the current fiscal year of $8.9 million and the prior year period of $3.7 million, Business, Technology and Management segment fiscal year 2009 operating income of $135.8 million increased 56.7% as compared to the year-ago period.


Medical and Healthcare

Medical and Healthcare segment operating income increased 75.4% to $91.7 million during fiscal year 2009 as compared to the prior year.  Increases in student enrollments and tuition produced higher revenues and operating income for the current year period as compared to the prior year even as faculty, staff and facilities were being added in connection with respective expansion programs at both Ross University and Chamberlain.  U.S. Education, which was acquired on September 18, 2008, also accounted for a significant portion of the operating profit growth for this segment.

Professional Education

Brasil, Becker Professional Education segment operating income declined 9.4% to $30.7 million during fiscal year 2009 as compared to the prior year.  The decrease in operating income was the result of slowed revenue growth and increased investments in advertising and marketing related to expanding its business-to-business sales channel and costs associated with operating a new office in Hong Kong.

Other Educational Services

For fiscal year 2009, Other Educational Services segment recorded an operating loss of $1.0 million as compared to operating income of $0.5 million during fiscal year 2008.  The decrease in operating loss was the result ofAdvanced Academics, which more than offset increased investments at Advanced AcademicsDeVry Brasil to driveincrease capacity and support future enrollment growth partially offset by operating income from Fanor, in which DeVry acquired a majority stake on April 1, 2009.

NET INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)


Interest income decreased 49.8%,26.0% to $5.3$1.5 million during fiscal year 20092011 as compared to the prior year. Despite an increase in invested cash balances as compared to the prior year period, interest income decreased because of lower interest rates earned on invested balances throughoutduring fiscal year 2009.2011. The increase in invested cash balances marketable securities and investments was attributable to improved operating cash flow over the past twelve months partially offset by cash used in connection with the acquisition of U.S. Educationincreased share repurchases and Fanor.



capital expenditures.

Interest expense increased by $2.2 milliondecreased 19.1% to $2.8$1.3 million during fiscal year 20092011 as compared to the prior year. The increasedecrease in interest expense during fiscal year 2011 was attributable to higher average borrowings during the current year.  DeVry borrowed approximately $166 million in September 2008 to finance the acquisition of U.S. Education.  As of June 30, 2009, totalno outstanding borrowings were $124.8 million.


Duringunder DeVry’s revolving line of credit during fiscal year 2009, 2011. This decrease was partially offset by increased commitment fees and amortization of deferred financing fees related to DeVry’s new $400 million revolving line of credit which was entered into during May 2011.

DeVry recorded a net investment gaingains of $43,000.  This net gain was comprised$1.2 million during fiscal year 2010. These gains were the result of a $1,266,000 gain from the settlement of a foreign exchange contract entered into in connection with DeVry’s signing of a definitive agreement to purchase a majority share in Fanor (as discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).  Partially offsetting this gain was a $1,223,000 net loss associated with the changes in the valuation of DeVry’s auction rate security portfolio and related put option (as discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).option. As of early July 2010, DeVry will continue to assess the fair value of these two individual assets (auction rate securities and the right to put such securities back to the broker) and record changes each period until the rights are exercised and thehad fully liquidated its auction rate securities are redeemed.   As a result, unrealizedsecurity portfolio at par value. There were no investment gains and losses will be included in earnings in future periods.   DeVry expects that future changes in the fair value of the rights will offset fair value movements in the related auction rate securities.

INCOME TAXES


Taxes on income were 30.2%33.1% of pretax income for fiscal year 2009,2011, compared to 27.1%32.1% for the prior year. The higher effective tax rate in fiscal year 2011 was attributable to a greater proportion of pre-tax income being generated by DeVry’s U.S. operations versus the offshoreits international operations of Ross University in the current year as compared to the prior year. DeVry’s effective income tax rate reflects benefits derived from significant operations outside the United States. Earnings of Ross University’sthese international operations are not subject to U.S. federal or state taxes and also are exempt from income taxes, so long as such earnings are not repatriated, as discussed below. Three of our subsidiaries, Ross University School of Medicine (the “Medical School”) incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Dominica, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (the “Veterinary School”) incorporated under the laws of the Federation of St. Christopher, Nevis, St. Kitts in the jurisdictions in whichWest Indies, and DeVry Brasil incorporated under the schools operate.laws of Brazil, all benefit from local tax incentives. The medicalMedical and veterinary schoolsVeterinary Schools have agreements with theirthe respective governments that exempt them from local income taxation through the years 2043 and 2023, respectively.  respectively, while DeVry Brasil’s effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from their participation in PROUNI, a Brazilian program for providing scholarships to a portion of its undergraduate students.

DeVry intends to indefinitely reinvest Ross Universityinternational earnings and cash flow to improve and expand facilities and operations at the medicalMedical and veterinaryVeterinary schools, and pursue other business opportunities outside the United States. Accordingly, DeVry has not recorded a current provision for the payment of U.S. income taxes on these earnings.


FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 VS. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2007

REVENUES

Total consolidated revenues for fiscal 2008 of $1,091.8 million increased $158.4 million, or 17.0%, as compared to fiscal year 2007.  Fiscal year 2008 revenues increased at all four of DeVry’s business segments as a result of continued growth in total student enrollments, improved student retention and tuition price increases as compared to the year ago period. In addition, revenues increased because of higher sales of Becker CPA review materials.

Business, Technology and Management

During fiscal year 2008, Business, Technology and Management segment revenues increased by 14.3% to $832.8 million as compared to fiscal year 2007.  DeVry University tuition revenues are the sole component of total revenues in the Business, Technology and Management segment. The two principal factors that influence revenues are enrollment and tuition rates. Key trends in these two components are set forth below.

Total undergraduate enrollment by term:

·Increased by 9.8% from summer 2006 (37,132 students) to summer 2007 (40,774 students);

·Increased by 10.3% from fall 2006 (40,434 students) to fall 2007 (44,594 students);

·Increased by 10.3% from spring 2007 (40,637 students) to spring 2008 (44,814 students); and

·Increased by 12.6% from summer 2007 (40,774 students) to summer 2008 (45,907 students).  This was DeVry University’s eighth consecutive term of positive total undergraduate student enrollment growth from the prior year period.


New undergraduate enrollment by term:

·Increased by 9.7% from summer 2006 (12,671 students) to summer 2007 (13,906 students);

·Increased by 10.7% from fall 2006 (11,930 students) to fall 2007 (13,204 students);

·Increased by 12.1% from spring 2007 (11,075 students) to spring 2008 (12,410 students); and

·Increased by 19.3% from summer 2007 (13,906 students) to summer 2008 (16,595 students).  The summer 2008 term was the eleventh consecutive term in which new undergraduate student enrollments increased from the year-ago level.

Graduate coursetaker enrollment, including the Keller Graduate School of Management:

The term “coursetaker” refers to the number of courses taken by a student.  Thus, one student taking two courses is counted as two coursetakers.

·Increased by 11.1% from the July 2006 session (12,617 coursetakers) to the July 2007 session (14,023 coursetakers);

·Increased by 12.7% from the September 2006 session (14,069 coursetakers) to the September 2007 session (15,857 coursetakers);

·Increased by 12.5% from the November 2006 session (13,920 coursetakers) to the November 2007 session (15,657 coursetakers);

·Increased by 13.7% from the January 2007 session (15,278 coursetakers) to the January 2008 session (17,377 coursetakers);

·Increased by 15.2% from the March 2007 session (14,756 coursetakers) to the March 2008 session (17,005 coursetakers);

·Increased by 15.7% from the May 2007 session (14,290 coursetakers) to the May 2008 session (16,537 coursetakers); and

·Increased by 14.2% from the July 2007 session (14,023 coursetakers) to the July 2008 session (16,017 coursetakers).

Tuition rates:

·Undergraduate program tuition increased by approximately 4.5% in July 2007; and

·Graduate school program tuition increased by approximately 0% to 5%, depending on location, effective with the July 2007 session, with a weighted average increase of 2.7%.

Management believes the increased undergraduate student enrollments were most significantly impacted by improved marketing and recruiting efforts, continued strong demand for DeVry University’s online programs and a heightened focus on the retention of existing students.  Management believes efforts at Keller to enhance brand awareness through improved messaging have produced positive graduate enrollment results.  Also contributing to higher total revenues in the DeVry University segment was an increase in Other Educational Revenues from sales of educational materials.

Partly offsetting the increases in revenue from improved enrollments and higher tuition rates were an increase in DeVry University scholarships and a growing proportion of working adult undergraduate students who typically enroll for less than a full-time academic load. These students primarily are enrolled in online programs and in programs offered at DeVry University centers. These part-time students pay a lesser total average tuition amount each term than do full-time students at the undergraduate campus locations. Therefore, the higher revenue per student resulting from tuition increases has been partially offset by a greater proportion of part-time students.  In addition, interest charges (included in Other Educational Revenue) on undergraduate student accounts receivable decreased during fiscal year 2008, as compared to the prior year periods.  These receivables are generally subject to a monthly interest charge of one percent under DeVry University’s EDUCARD® proprietary loan program for financing students’ education.  Lower interest charges are primarily the result of an improvement in the timeliness of receivable collections as compared to the prior year.

Medical and Healthcare

The Medical and Healthcare segment posted record revenues of $169.8 million in fiscal year 2008, representing an increase of $32.6 million, or 23.8% as compared to the prior year.  While Ross University accounted for the majority of the revenue increase in this segment, increasing enrollments at Chamberlain College of Nursing also contributed to segment revenue growth.  The two principal factors that influence revenues are enrollment and tuition rates. Key trends in these two components are set forth below.

Ross University total enrollment by term:

·Increased by 9.9% from May 2006 (3,428 students) to May 2007 (3,767 students);

·Increased by 4.1% from September 2006 (3,724 students) to September 2007 (3,876 students);

·Increased by 7.0% from January 2007 (3,747 students) to January 2008 (4,011 students); and

·Increased by 7.9% from May 2007 (3,767 students) to May 2008 (4,064 students).

Ross University new student enrollment by term:

·Decreased by 5.2% from May 2006 (439 students) to May 2007 (416 students);

·Decreased by 8.9% from September 2006 (628 students) to September 2007 (572 students);

·Increased by 11.1% from January 2007 (496 students) to January 2008 (551 students); and

·Increased by 15.6% from May 2007 (416 students) to May 2008 (481 students).

Chamberlain College of Nursing total enrollment by term:

·Increased by 83.3% from July 2006 (594 students) to July 2007 (1,089 students); and

·Increased by 122.1% from July 2007 (1,089 students) to July 2008 (2,419 students).

Tuition rates:

·Tuition and fees for the Ross University core sciences programs increased by approximately 5.4% for the September 2006 term and approximately 6.8% effective with the September 2007 term;

·Tuition and fees for the Ross University final clinical portion of the programs increased by approximately 5.0% for the September 2006 term and approximately 7.5% effective with the September 2007 term; and

·Tuition for Chamberlain increased approximately 5% for the 2007-2008 academic year (effective July 2007).

Continued demand for medical doctors and veterinarians positively influenced career decisions of new students towards these respective fields of study.  Management believes the increasing enrollments at Ross University for the past several terms resulted from enhancements made to its marketing and recruiting functions, as well as steps taken to meet increasing student demand such as adding faculty, classrooms, and a new student center and gymnasium.

The increase in student enrollments at Chamberlain was attributable to its growing RN to BSN online completion program and the opening of its Columbus campus in March 2007.  Also, during March 2008, Chamberlain began offering nursing programs at its campuses in Addison, Illinois, and Phoenix.  These locations are co-located with existing respective DeVry University campuses.

Professional Education

Professional Education segment revenues reached a record high of $81.1 million for fiscal year 2008, increasing by $13.2 million, or 19.4% from the prior year. The primary reasons for the increase were higher sales of CPA review courses on CD-ROM and increased enrollment in Becker Professional Review’s CPA review courses.  Management believes these increases were being driven largely by Becker’s success in capturing the continuing strong demand for CPAs from accounting and consulting firms.  Also contributing to the growth in revenues was a price increase of approximately 5%, effective July 2007.


Other Educational Services

Other Educational Services segment revenues were $8.1 million in fiscal year 2008.  On October 31, 2007, DeVry acquired Advanced Academics, Inc., which comprised the Other Educational Services segment for fiscal year 2008.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Cost of Educational Services

The largest component of Cost of Educational Services is the cost of employees who support educational operations. This expense category also includes the costs of facilities, adjunct faculty, supplies, bookstore and other educational materials, student education-related support activities, and the provision for uncollectible student accounts.

DeVry’s Cost of Educational Services increased 3.4% to $503.1 million during fiscal year 2008 as compared to fiscal year 2007.  Cost increases were incurred in support of the higher number of DeVry University Centers, expanding online program enrollments and from Advanced Academics, which was acquired on October 31, 2007. In addition, cost increases were incurred at Ross University to both support increasing student enrollments and capacity expansion to drive future growth.  Also, Cost of Educational Services increased due to the operation of two additional Chamberlain locations which began offering programs in March 2008.  Partially offsetting these cost increases were savings realized from the voluntary and involuntary work force reductions taken at DeVry University during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 along with facility cost reductions from DeVry University’s ongoing real estate optimization program.

As a percent of revenue, Cost of Educational Services decreased to 46.1% in fiscal year 2008 from 51.1% during the prior year period.  The decrease was the combined result of increased operating leverage with existing facilities and staff and revenue gains, which more than offset incremental investments within all three business segments.  Management anticipates improvements in operating leverage to continue during fiscal year 2009, albeit not at the same level achieved during fiscal year 2008 as expenses are expected to increase based on additional hiring and project spending to support future quality enhancements and revenue growth.

Separation Plan Severance

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, DeVry offered a voluntary separation plan (VSP) to eligible DeVry University campus-based employees, and during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, DeVry University announced plans for an involuntary reduction in force (RIF).  In connection with these actions, DeVry University reduced its workforce by approximately 220 employees, and recorded a total pre-tax charge of approximately $6.3 million in fiscal year 2007. The charge consisted of severance pay and extended medical and dental benefits coverage. The charge was separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Costs and Expenses and was related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.

Loss (Gain) on Sale of Assets

In February, 2008, DeVry University completed the sale of its 98,000 square foot Houston facility for approximately $14.5 million of gross proceeds. DeVry is leasing back approximately 60 percent of the original space. An accounting gain from the sale of the facility of $2.2 million is being recognized ratably over the 12-year lease period.

In September 2007, DeVry sold its facility located in Seattle, Washington, for approximately $12.4 million.  In connection with the sale, DeVry recorded a pre-tax loss of $5.4 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.  In the same transaction, DeVry sold its facility located in Phoenix, Arizona, for approximately $16.0 million which resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $7.7 million. In connection with the transaction, DeVry entered into agreements to lease back approximately 60% of the total space of both facilities.  The leaseback required the deferral of a portion of the gain on the sale of the Phoenix facility of approximately $6.6 million. This gain is being recognized as a reduction to rent expense over the ten year life of the lease agreement. The remaining pre-tax gain of $1.1 million was recorded during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.


In September 2007, DeVry exercised the option to purchase its leased facility in Alpharetta, Georgia, for $11.2 million.  Immediately following the acquisition, DeVry sold the facility to a different party for $11.2 million and executed a leaseback on the entire facility.  In connection with this transaction, DeVry accelerated to the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, the recognition of approximately $0.6 million of remaining deferred lease credits associated with the original lease.

The recorded net loss on the sale of the facilities and the recognition of the deferred lease credits was separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and was related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.

In September 2006, DeVry sold its facility located in West Hills, California, for $36.0 million. In connection with the sale, DeVry recorded a pre-tax gain of $19.9 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2007.  DeVry relocated its West Hills campus operations to a leased facility in nearby Sherman Oaks, California.  This gain was separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and was also related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.

These transactions were executed as a part of DeVry’s ongoing real estate optimization strategy, which involves evaluating DeVry’s current facilities and locations in order to ensure the optimal mix of large campuses, small campuses and DeVry University centers to meet the demand of each market that it serves.  This process also improves capacity utilization and enhances economic value.  This strategy may include actions such as reconfiguring large campuses; renegotiating lease terms; sub-leasing excess space and relocating to smaller locations within the same geographic area to increase market penetration.  DeVry will also consider co-locating other educational offerings such as Chamberlain College of Nursing with DeVry University campuses.  Future actions under this program could result in accounting gains and/or losses depending upon real estate market conditions, including whether the facility is owned or leased and other market factors.

Student Services and Administrative Expense

This expense category includes student recruiting and advertising costs, general and administrative costs, expenses associated with curriculum development, and the amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets related to acquisitions of businesses.

Student Services and Administrative Expense grew by 17.7% to $422.6 million during fiscal year 2008 as compared to the year-ago period.  The increase in expenses represented additional investments in advertising and recruiting to drive and support future growth in new student enrollments.  Increased new student enrollments, as described above, at all three of DeVry’s business segments are believed to be, in part, attributable to the higher level and effectiveness of this spending.  In addition, cost increases were incurred for improved information technology and student services.  Also, expenses were higher as compared to the year-ago periods as a result of the acquisition of Advanced Academics, which was purchased on October 31, 2007.

As a percent of revenue, Student Services and Administrative Expense increased to 38.7% in fiscal year 2008 from 38.5% during the prior year.  The increase was the result of additional investments in advertising and recruiting to drive and support future enrollment growth as well as cost increases for improved information technology and student services.

Partially offsetting these increases was lower amortization of finite-lived intangible assets in connection with acquisitions of businesses, primarily related to Ross University, net of increased amortization of finite-lived intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of Advanced Academics on October 31, 2007.  For fiscal year 2008, amortization expense for finite-lived intangible assets was $4.9 million compared to $6.8 million in the year-ago period.  Amortization expense is included entirely in the Student Services and Administrative Expense category.

OPERATING INCOME

Total consolidated operating income for fiscal year 2008 of $162.3 million increased $60.0 million, or 58.7%, as compared to the prior year. Operating income increased at all four of DeVry’s business segments.

Business, Technology and Management

Business, Technology and Management segment operating income increased 115.7% to $82.9 million during fiscal year 2008, as compared to the prior year period.  Revenue increased and gross margin improved significantly during fiscal year 2008, which was partially offset by the loss from sale leaseback transactions.  In September 2007, DeVry executed sale leaseback transactions for its facilities in Seattle, Washington; Phoenix, Arizona; and Alpharetta, Georgia. In connection with these transactions, DeVry recorded a pre-tax loss of $3.7 million during the fiscal year 2008.  During fiscal year 2007, DeVry recorded pre-tax gains of $20.8 million associated with facility sales and recorded a pre-tax charge of $6.3 million in connection with separation plans.  The loss in fiscal year 2008 and gain and charge in fiscal year 2007 were included in operating income of the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.  Excluding the impact of these items in both fiscal year 2008 of a $3.7 million loss and fiscal year 2007 net gain of $14.5 million, Business, Technology and Management segment fiscal year 2008 operating income of $86.6 million increased $62.7 million from $23.9 million in the year-ago period.


Medical and Healthcare

Medical and Healthcare segment operating income increased 11.2% to $52.2 million during fiscal year 2008 as compared to the prior year.  Increases in student enrollments and tuition produced higher revenues and operating income in fiscal year 2008 as compared to the prior year even as faculty, staff and facilities were being added in connection with the operation of two additional Chamberlain campuses which began offering programs in March 2008.  The increase was partially offset by an increase in the allocation of corporate expenses to this business unit, including information technology, human resources and legal, based upon current usage of such services.

Professional Education

Professional Education segment operating income rose 31.4% to $33.8 million during fiscal year 2008 as compared to the year-ago period.  The increase in operating income is the result of higher revenue and improved operating leverage as discussed earlier.

Other Educational Services

Other Educational Services segment operating income was $0.5 million in fiscal year 2008.  On October 31, 2007, DeVry acquired Advanced Academics, Inc., which comprised the Other Educational Services segment for fiscal year 2008.

NET INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Interest income increased 40.7%, to $10.5 million during fiscal year 2008 as compared to the prior year.  The increase was attributable to higher levels of invested cash balances and marketable securities with higher interest rates as compared to the prior year.  The increase in invested cash balances and marketable securities was attributable to improved operating cash flow and proceeds received from the sale of assets, as discussed earlier.

Interest expense decreased 89.1% to $0.5 million during fiscal year 2008 as compared to the year-ago period.  The decrease in interest expense was attributable to lower average borrowings and lower amortization of deferred financing costs.  During July and October 2006, DeVry repaid the remaining Senior Notes totaling $115 million.  During January 2007, DeVry amended its revolving credit agreement, which among other things, reduced the spread on applicable interest and fee rates.

INCOME TAXES

Taxes on income were 27.1% of pretax income for fiscal year 2008, compared to 27.4% for the prior year.  The higher effective tax rate in fiscal year 2007 was attributable to the gain on the sale of the West Hills facility and excess adjacent land to the Tinley Park campus, which occurred in fiscal year 2007, and carried a tax rate of 39.1%, partially offset by an increase in the proportion of income generated by U.S. operations versus the offshore operations of Ross University during fiscal year 2008.

Earnings of Ross University’s international operations are not subject to U.S. federal or state taxes and also are exempt from income taxes in the jurisdictions in which the schools operate.  The medical and veterinary schools have agreements with the governments that exempt them from local income taxation through the years 2043 and 2023, respectively.  DeVry intends to indefinitely reinvest Ross University earnings and cash flow to improve and expand facilities and operations at the medical and veterinary schools, and pursue other business opportunities outside the United States. Accordingly, DeVry has not recorded a current provision for the payment of U.S. income taxes on these earnings.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009,2012, describes in more detail the method of application of significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with the discussion below.


Revenue Recognition


DeVry University tuition, Ross University and American University of the Caribbean tuition for the basic science semesters, ApolloCarrington College, Western CareerCarrington College andCalifornia, Chamberlain College of Nursing and DeVry Brasil tuition all are billed at the start of each academic term. Such revenue is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the academic term. Revenue from Ross University clinical terms is recognized based upon the student’s weekly schedule of actual attendance. Refunds of tuition are reported as a reduction of revenues. Revenues from sales of textbooks, electronic course materials and other educational supplies, and commissions received on sales by bookstores (which are operated by an outside party), are recognized when the sales occur.product or service is delivered. Tuition revenue from Advanced Academics Inc. is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the course term or the license period depending on the type of contract.

Tuition revenue from Becker Professional Education, including ATC International and Falcon Physicians Review, is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the course term. Becker Professional Education self-study CD ROM, textbook and other educational product revenues are recognized when the sales occur.product or service is delivered. Revenue from training services, which are generally short-term in duration, is recognized when the training service is provided.


Expense Recognition


Advertising costs are charged to expense in the period in which materials are purchased or services are rendered. Similarly, start-up expenses related to new operating locations and new curriculum development costs are charged directly to expense as incurred.


Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts


The allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined by analyzing the current levelaging of accounts receivable and historical loss rates on collections of accounts receivable. In addition, management considers projections of future receivable levels and collection loss rates. We perform this analysis periodically throughout the year. Provisions required to maintain the allowance at appropriate levels are charged to expense in each period as required.


Internally Developed Software


Selected costs associated with developing DeVry’s information technology systems have been capitalized in accordance with the rules on accounting for costs of computer software developed for internal useuse. Capitalized software development costs for projects not

yet complete are included as construction in accordance with SOP 98-1.


progress in the Land, Buildings and Equipment section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon completion of the projects the costs are transferred to equipment and amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the software.

Stock-Based Compensation


Stock-based compensation is recorded as compensation expense. Accordingly, expenses relatingexpense over the vesting period. DeVry accounts for options granted to stock-based awards are included inretirement eligible employees that fully vest upon an employees’ retirement under the appropriate expense categories.


non-substantive vesting period approach to these options. Under this approach, the entire compensation cost is recognized at the grant date for options issued to retirement eligible employees. If factors change and different assumptions are employed in the application of SFAS 123(R)utilized in future periods, the stock-based compensation expense that DeVry records may differ significantly from what was recorded in the prior period.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets


In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles arising from a business combination are not amortized and charged to expense over time. Instead, these assets must be reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if circumstances arise indicating potential impairment. This impairment review was most recently completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 at which2012. At this time, it was determined that the goodwill and the indefinite-lived intangible asset of the Advanced Academics Inc. (AAI) reporting unit had been impaired. As of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 impairment review, there was no impairment loss associated with recorded goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets for any other reporting unit, as estimated fair values exceeded the carrying amounts.



DeVry did not perform interim impairment reviews during fiscal year 2009. The estimated fair values of

During the reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying values by at least 40% as of the endfourth quarter of fiscal year 20082012, revenues and management did not believe business conditions had deterioratedoperating income for DeVry’s AAI reporting unit were significantly below management’s expectations driven by a larger than expected decline in anyschool district contract revenue. During the first nine months of its reporting unitsfiscal 2012, revenues were down approximately 5% compared to the extent thatfirst nine months of fiscal 2011 and operating income was slightly below management’s expectations. AAI’s revenue declined 46% during the fair valuesfourth quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to the reporting units or intangible assets would have differed materially from theirprior year fourth quarter. As a result of this significant decline in revenues, AAI generated an operating loss in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 fair values.  In2012 that was significantly below management’s expectations which projected operating income for this regard, revenues grewperiod. Accordingly, management revised its forecast and future cash flow projections for all reporting units throughout fiscal year 2009 and operating results and cash flows met or exceeded management expectations for all but the Becker Professional Education (Becker) reporting unit. Though the Becker reporting unit has experienced a slowdown in growth and declining operating profits, this slowdown is considered to be temporary.  Moreover,AAI.

To determine the fair value of thisthe AAI indefinite-lived intangible asset and AAI reporting unit significantly exceeded its carrying value as of the fiscal year 2009in our step one impairment analysis. This reporting unit remains highly profitable with operating margins exceeding 36%. Management believes this negative trend to be temporary and believes its planned business and operational strategies will reverse this negative trend in the foreseeable future.


Management does consider certain triggering events when evaluating whether interim impairment analysis, is warranted. Among these would be a significant long-term decrease in the market capitalization of DeVry based on events specific to DeVry’s operations. As of June 30, 2009, DeVry’s market capitalization exceeded its book value by approximately 300%. This premium was consistent with that as of June 30, 2008.  Other triggering events that could be cause for an interim impairment review would be changes in the accreditation, regulatory or legal environment; unexpected competition; and changes in the market acceptance of our educational programs and the graduates of those programs.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit or an intangible asset involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.  Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

For goodwill, DeVry estimates the fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model utilizing inputs which include projected operating results and cash flows from management’s long term plan. Ifvaluation method was utilized incorporating assumptions that a reasonable market participant would use regarding the carrying amountimpact of the reporting unit containingcurrent operating losses and the goodwill exceeds the fair value of that reporting unit, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent the “implied fair value” of the reporting unit goodwill is less than the carrying amount of the goodwill.

DeVry had seven reporting units which contained goodwill as of the fourth quarter fiscal year 2009 analysis.  These reporting units constitute components for which discrete financial information is availableincreased uncertainty impacting future operations. We used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in our discounted cash flow valuation including future cash flow projections and regularly reviewed by management. discount rate assumptions.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The estimate of fair value of each reporting unit is based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years along with a terminal value calculated based on discounted cash flows. These measures of business performance are similar to those management uses to evaluate the results of operations on a regular basis. The growth rates used to project cash flows, operating results and terminal values of reporting units are commensurate with historical results and analysis of the economic environment in which the reporting units operate. The valuations employ present value techniques to estimate fair value and consider market factors. Management believes the assumptions used for the impairment testing are consistent with those utilized by a market participant in performing similar valuations of its reporting units. A discount rate of 13% was utilized for the AAI reporting unit. The discount rate utilized takes into account management’s assumptions on growth rates and risk, both organization specific and macro-economic, inherent in the reporting unit. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Management’s impairment analysis resulted in an estimated fair value for the AAI reporting unit that was less than its carrying value by approximately $20 million. This difference was greater than the balance of AAI’s combined intangible assets and goodwill. As a result, management determined the indefinite-lived intangible asset and goodwill were considered to be impaired and should have zero balances. Accordingly, AAI’s Trade Name indefinite-lived intangible asset and the goodwill balance were written down by $1.3 million and $17.1 million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

Management also evaluated AAI’s remaining long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, for recoverability and determined that the finite-lived intangible assets were completely impaired and had zero value. As a result, AAI’s Curriculum/Software and Consumer Contracts were written down by a total of $1.0 million. Property and equipment values were determined to be completely recoverable at their recorded net book values. Therefore, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, AAI’s goodwill and other intangibles impairment charges in the aggregate were $19.4 million, with an income tax benefit of $0.9 million for the write-down of the intangible assets. The goodwill write-down is not deductible for tax purposes.

DeVry did perform an interim impairment review on its Carrington Colleges Group (Carrington) reporting unit during the second quarter fiscal year 2012. DeVry did not perform an interim impairment review on any other reporting unit during fiscal 2012. The estimated fair values of the reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying values by at least 15% as of the end of fiscal year 2011 except those indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired with the acquisitions of Carrington and ATC where fair values approximated carrying values. Though certain reporting units experienced a decline in operating results from the previous year, management did not believe business conditions had deteriorated in any of its reporting units other than Carrington such that it was more likely than not that the fair value was below carrying value for any other reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, revenue and operating income for DeVry’s Carrington Colleges Group reporting unit were significantly below management’s expectations driven by a larger than expected decline in new student enrollments. Carrington’s revenue declined 27% during the second quarter as compared to the prior year. As a result of the significant decrease in revenue, Carrington generated an operating loss in the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 as compared to operating income in the year-ago period. Accordingly, management revised its forecast and future cash flow projections for Carrington.

Based upon these facts and circumstances, management performed an interim impairment review for the Carrington indefinite-lived intangible asset and the Carrington reporting unit. To determine the fair value of the Carrington indefinite-lived intangible asset and Carrington reporting unit in our interim step one impairment analysis, a discounted cash flow valuation method was utilized incorporating assumptions that a reasonable market participant would use regarding the impact of the current operating losses and the increased uncertainty impacting future operations. We used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in our discounted cash flow valuation including future cash flow projections and discount rate assumptions.

For indefinite-lived intangible assets, DeVry determines their fair value based on the nature of the asset using various valuation techniques including a discounted cash flow model. The estimated fair values of indefinite-lived intangible assets are based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years. The assumed growth rates used to project cash flows and operating results are commensurate with historical results and analysis of the economic environment in which the reporting unit that records indefinite-lived intangible assets operates. The valuations employ present value techniques to measure fair value and consider market factors. Management believes the assumptions used for the impairment testing are consistent with those that would be utilized by a market participant in performing similar valuations of its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The discount rate of 14% that was utilized in the Carrington valuation takes into account management’s assumptions on growth rates and risk, both company specific and macro-economic, inherent in the reporting unit in addition to the specific risk of the Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility asset relative to Carrington’s other assets. This intangible asset is closely tied to the overall risk of the reporting unit in which it is recorded so management would expect the discount rate to approximate that used for valuing this reporting unit. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty.

Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Management’s interim impairment analysis resulted in an estimated fair value for the Carrington Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility intangible asset of $71.1 million which was $41.2 million less than its carrying value. Based on a calculation of the estimated fair value of the Carrington reporting unit and a hypothetical purchase price allocation which included the estimated fair value of the Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility intangible asset, management determined the Carrington reporting unit would have implied goodwill of $151.9 million. This was $33.8 million less than the carrying value of this reporting unit. Accordingly, Carrington’s Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility indefinite-lived intangible assets and the goodwill balance were considered to be impaired and were written down by $41.2 million and $33.8 million, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

Management also evaluated Carrington’s remaining long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, for recoverability and determined there was no impairment. Therefore in the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, Carrington’s goodwill and other intangibles impairment charges in the aggregate were $75.0 million, with an income tax benefit of $19.3 million for the write-down of the intangible asset. The goodwill write-down is not deductible for tax purposes.

No further impairment indicators were noted for Carrington during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2012, and, as noted above, no impairment indicators were noted for any of DeVry’s other reporting units through any interim period during fiscal 2012.

In this regard, revenues grew for all reporting units in fiscal year 2012 except at DeVry University and Carrington and operating results and cash flows improved over the prior year for all but the DeVry University, Carrington and Becker Professional Review reporting units.

At DeVry University, which carries a goodwill balance of $22.2 million, revenue declined by 11% from the prior year. The revenue decline at DeVry University was the result of lower student enrollments. Management believes these declines were due to economic uncertainties and the prolonged economic downturn, which has resulted in reductions in the volume of inquiries from potential students. To address this issue, DeVry University is focused improving the admissions process to better serve prospective students. Though operating profits declined by approximately 30%, DeVry University remains highly profitable with operating margins in excess of 25%. Management believes its planned business and operational strategies will reverse the negative trends in the foreseeable future. However, if operating improvements are not realized, all or some of the goodwill could be impaired in the future. The impairment review completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 indicated a fair value exceeding carrying value for the DeVry University reporting unit by 250%.

At Carrington, which carries a goodwill balance of $151.9 million as of June 30, 2012, revenue declined by 24% from the prior year. The revenue decline at Carrington was the result of lower student enrollments. Management believes these declines were due to economic uncertainties and the prolonged economic downturn, which has resulted in reductions in the volume of inquiries from potential students. To address this issue, Carrington is focused on building brand awareness and improving communications designed to produce a direct consumer response. Carrington is also making additional investments in its website interface and admissions processes to better serve prospective students. The revenue decline has also resulted in operating losses. As described above, these circumstances resulted in an impairment write-down of Carrington’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of December 31, 2011. Management believes its planned business and operational strategies will reverse the negative trend in the foreseeable future. However, if operating improvements are not realized, all or some of the remaining goodwill could be impaired in the future. The impairment review completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 indicated a fair value exceeding carrying value for the Carrington reporting unit. The estimated excess was less than five percent.

Though the Becker Professional Review reporting unit, which carries a goodwill balance of $32.8 million, has experienced a slowdown in growth and declining operating profits, this slowdown is considered to be temporary and is the result of increased expenditures designed to improve future results. Revenue grew slightly from the prior year and, though operating profits declined by approximately 4% from the prior year, this reporting unit remains highly profitable with operating margins exceeding the consolidated total. The impairment review completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 indicated a fair value exceeding carrying value by approximately 400% for the Becker Professional Review reporting unit.

Management does consider certain triggering events when evaluating whether interim impairment analysis is warranted. Among these would be a significant long-term decrease in the market capitalization of DeVry based on events specific to DeVry’s operations. As of June 30, 2012, DeVry’s market capitalization exceeded its book value by approximately 47%. Though this premium is lower than the 200% as of June 30, 2011, it is partially the result of depressed operating results that management believes are short-term in nature. Management also believes the decline in the market price of DeVry’s common stock has been partially caused by the continued overhang of government regulatory changes in the education industry. These changes have lead to significant uncertainty among investors and have worked to keep the prices of all education company stocks at depressed levels for the last 18 months. Once these changes are fully digested and the company is able to show compliance with the new regulations, management believes the stock price will react favorably. Other triggering events that could be cause for an interim impairment review would be changes in the accreditation, regulatory or legal environment; unexpected competition; and changes in the market acceptance of our educational programs and the graduates of those programs.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit or an intangible asset involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

For goodwill, DeVry estimates the fair value of its reporting units primarily using a discounted cash flow model utilizing inputs which include projected operating results and cash flows from management’s long term plan. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit containing the goodwill exceeds the fair value of that reporting unit, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent the "implied fair value" of the reporting unit goodwill is less than the carrying amount of the goodwill.

DeVry had seven reporting units which contained goodwill as of the fourth quarter fiscal year 2012 analysis. These reporting units constitute components for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by segment management. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The estimate of the fair value of each reporting unit is based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering

planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years along with a terminal value calculated based on discounted cash flows. These measures of business performance are similar to those management uses to evaluate the results of operations on a regular basis. The growth rates used to project cash flows, operating results and terminal values of reporting units are commensurate with historical results and analysis of the economic environment in which the reporting units operate. The valuations employ present value techniques to estimate fair value and consider market factors. Management believes the assumptions used for the impairment testing are consistent with those utilized by a market participant in performing similar valuations of its reporting units. Discount rates of 11%13% to 13%16% were utilized for the reporting units. The discount rate utilized by each unit takes into account management’s assumptions on growth rates and risk, both companyorganization specific and macro-economic, inherent in that reporting unit. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.


these estimates which could lead to additional impairments of goodwill.

All of the reporting units’ estimated fair values exceeded their carrying values as of the fourth quarter impairment analysis by at least 30%; therefore25% except for Carrington where fair value slightly exceeded carrying value. The smaller premium for the Carrington reporting unit would be expected considering an impairment charge was recorded for the reporting unit within six months of the fourth quarter fiscal year 2012 valuation date. Consequently, there has been less time for this organization to have appreciated in value from its fair market value at December 31, 2011, and Carrington operating results since December 31 have approximated management expectations. The results of this analysis indicate no impairment of goodwill was recordedexisted as of June 30, 2009.2012, except that of the AAI reporting unit as discussed above. An increase of 100 basis points in the discount raterates used in this analysis would result in no less than a minimum 16%14% premium of fair value over carrying value.value except for the Carrington reporting unit for the same reasons previously mentioned. Management considers the use of this level of sensitivity in the discount rate reasonable considering the strength of DeVry’s sustained operations. If the impairment analysis resulted in any reporting unit’s fair value being less than the carrying value, an additional step would be required to determine the implied fair value of goodwill associated with that reporting unit. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by first allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all its assets and liabilities and then computing the excess of the reporting unit’s fair value over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, such excess represents the amount of goodwill impairment, and, accordingly such impairment is recognized.


For indefinite-lived intangible assets, DeVry determines their fair value based on the nature of the asset using various valuation techniques including a royalty rate model for Trade Names, Trademarks and Intellectual Property, a discounted income stream model for Title IV Eligibility and a discounted cash flow model for Accreditation. The estimated fair values of these indefinite-lived intangible assets are based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years. The assumed royalty rates and the growth rates used to project cash flows and operating results are commensurate with historical results and analysis of the economic environment in which the reporting units that record indefinite-lived intangible assets operate. The valuations employ present value techniques to measure fair value and consider market factors. Management believes the assumptions used for the impairment testing are consistent with those that would be utilized by a market participant in performing similar valuations of its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The discount rates of 11%13% to 13%18% that were utilized in the valuations take into account management’s assumptions on growth rates and risk, both company specific and macro-economic, inherent in each reporting unit that records indefinite-lived intangible assets. These intangible assets are closely tied to the overall risk of the reporting units in which they are recorded so management would expect the discount rates to also match those used for valuing these reporting units. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty.



intangible assets.

All of the fair value estimates of indefinite-lived intangible assets exceed the carrying values of those assets as of the 20092012 fourth quarter impairment analysis by at least 50%100% except those acquired with the acquisitions of U.S. EducationAUC, FBV and Fanor and the Stalla CFA Trade Name. The newly acquired assets all hadCarrington where fair values at least equal to theirslightly exceeded carrying values whichvalues. The smaller premium for the FBV and AUC indefinite-lived intangible assets would be expected considering allthe assets have been acquired within ninetwelve months of the fourth quarter fiscal year 2012 valuation date. As mentioned above,date and there has been less time for these assets to have appreciated in value from their fair market value purchase price. Similarly, the Stalla CFA Trade Name is being phased out oversmaller premium for the next two years which resulted in an estimatedCarrington indefinite-lived intangible assets would be expected considering the assets were revalued and written down to fair value thatwithin six months of the fourth quarter fiscal year 2012 valuation date, Consequently, there has been less time for these assets to have appreciated in value from their fair market value at December 31, 2011, and Carrington operating results since December 31 have approximated its carrying value.  This trade name will continue to be used for the next two years and, in management’s opinion, remains a valuable asset in the marketplace. It will be amortized over the two year phase-out period.management expectations. Since no fair values were estimated to be below carrying value, no impairment of intangible assets was recorded as of June 30, 2009.2012, except the impairment recorded for the AAI reporting unit as discussed above. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.


At June 30, 2009,2012, intangible assets from business combinations totaled $203.2$285.2 million, and goodwill totaled $512.6$550.0 million. Together these assets equal approximately 50%45% of total assets, and any impairment could significantly affect future results of operations.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


DeVry evaluates the carrying amount of its major long-lived assets whenever changes in circumstances or events indicate that the value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. As mentioned above, DeVry evaluated AAI’s long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, for recoverability and determined that the finite-lived intangible assets were completely impaired and had zero value. As a result, AAI’s Curriculum/Software and Consumer Contracts were written down by a total of $1.0 million. No suchother circumstances existed in fiscal year 2009.


2012 that would indicate an impairment of long-lived assets.

Income Taxes


DeVry accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. DeVry also recognizes future tax benefits associated with tax loss and credit carryforwards as deferred tax assets. DeVry’s deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. DeVry measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which DeVry expects to recover or settle the temporary differences. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred taxes is recognized in the period that the change is enacted. DeVry reduces its net tax assets for the estimated additional tax and interest that may result from tax authorities disputing uncertain tax positions DeVry has taken.


Estimates and Assumptions


DeVry’s financial statements include estimates and assumptions about the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses whose exact amounts will not be known until future periods. Management has discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors the critical accounting policies discussed above and the significant estimates included in the financial statements in this report. Although management believes its assumptions and estimates are reasonable, actual amounts may differ from the estimates included in the financial statements thereby materially affecting results in the future.


DeVry’s financial statements reflect the following significant estimates and assumptions:

·

the method of revenue recognition across academic periods;

·the estimates and judgments used to record the provision for uncollectible accounts receivable.  DeVry believes that it has appropriately considered known or expected outcomes of its students’ ability to pay their outstanding amounts due to DeVry.  DeVry’s greatest accounts receivable risk is with its DeVry University undergraduate students.  If an additional allowance of 1% of DeVry University undergraduate gross receivables was necessary, an additional provision of approximately $0.5 million would be required;

The methodology management used to derive each of the above estimates for fiscal 20092012 is consistent with the manner in which such estimates were made in prior years, although management regularly analyzes the parameters used in setting the value of these estimates and may change those parameters as conditions warrant. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


CONTINGENCIES


DeVry is subject to occasional lawsuits, administrative proceedings, regulatory reviews and investigations associated with financial assistance programs and other claimsmatters arising in the normal conduct of its business. The following is a description of pending litigation that may be considered other than ordinary and routine litigation that is incidental to the business.


On December 23, 2005, Saro Daghlian, a former DeVry University student in California, commenced a putative class action against DeVry University

The Boca Raton Firefighters’ and DeVry Inc. (collectively “DeVry”) in Los Angeles Superior Court, asserting various claims predicated upon DeVry’s alleged failure to comply with disclosure requirements under the California Education Code relating to the transferability of academic units.   In addition to the alleged omission, Daghlian also claimed that DeVry made untrue or misleading statements to prospective students, in violation of the California Unfair Competition Law ("UCL") and the California False Advertising Law, ("FAL").   DeVry removed the action to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.  In two Orders dated October 9, 2007, and December 31, 2007, the District Court entered judgment dismissing all of  plaintiffs’ class and individual claims and awarded DeVry its cost of suit.  The final judgment was entered on January 3, 2008.  The plaintiffs appealed the dismissal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.  On July 31, 2009, the Ninth Circuit dismissed the appeal as moot citing the repeal of the statute on which all plaintiffs’ claims had been based.


Beginning in May 2008, the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Division, working with the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, conductedPolice Pension Fund filed an inquiry concerning DeVry’s compliance with Title IV regulations relating to recruiter compensation.  DeVry cooperated fully with the inquiry and on October 16, 2008, was advised by the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois that the government had concluded its inquiry and had declined to intervene in a sealed qui tam case which had precipitated the inquiry.  The False Claims Act case, which was unsealed as a result of the government’s action, had been filed in September 2007 by a former DeVry employee, Jennifer S. Shultz,initial complaint (the “Shareholder Case”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Divisionon November 1, 2010 (Case No. 1:10-cv-07031). The initial complaint was filed on behalf of the government.  A firsta putative class of persons who purchased DeVry common stock between October 25, 2007, and August 13, 2010. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint was unsealed(the “First Amended Complaint”) on March 7, 2011 alleging the same categories of claims in the initial

complaint. The plaintiffs claimed in the First Amended Complaint that DeVry, Daniel Hamburger and Richard M. Gunst violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by failing to disclose abusive and fraudulent recruiting and financial aid lending practices, thereby increasing DeVry’s student enrollment and revenues and artificially inflating DeVry’s stock price during the class period. On March 27, 2012, Judge John F. Grady dismissed the First Amended Complaint without prejudice, granting Plaintiffs leave to file a second amended complaint by May 4, 2012.

On May 4, 2012, the Plaintiffs again amended their allegations in the Shareholder Case (the “Second Amended Complaint”). The Second Amended Complaint alleges a longer putative class period of October 27, 2007, to August 11, 2011, but narrows the scope of the alleged fraud significantly as compared to the previous two complaints. Plaintiffs now focus exclusively on DeVry’s practices for compensating student Admissions Advisors, alleging DeVry misled the market by failing to disclose that its compensation practices violated federal law and by making affirmative misrepresentations that DeVry complied with compensation regulations. On July 10, 2012, DeVry filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint, which is awaiting Judge Grady’s consideration.

Three derivative cases similar to the Shareholder Case also have been filed (“Derivative Actions”). Two of the Derivative Actions were filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division: DeVry shareholder Timothy Hald filed a derivative complaint on behalf of DeVry on January 3, 2011 (Hald v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 11 CH 0087) and Matthew Green (also a DeVry shareholder) filed a derivative complaint on behalf of DeVry on January 7, 2011 (Green v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 11 CH 0770). TheHaldandGreencases (the “Consolidated Cases”) were consolidated by court order dated December 31, 2008.  The allegationsFebruary 9, 2011. Maria Dotro, another DeVry shareholder, filed a third derivative complaint on DeVry’s behalf in the first amended complaint relateDelaware Court of Chancery on March 11, 2011 (Dotro v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 6263). Both the Consolidated cases and theDotrocase have been stayed by agreement of the parties until certain matters are resolved or clarified with respect to whetherthe disposition of the Shareholder Case.

The Derivative Actions allege that Daniel Hamburger, Richard M. Gunst, David J. Pauldine, Sharon Thomas Parrott, Ronald L. Taylor, Lisa W. Pickrum, Darren R. Huston, David S. Brown, William T. Keevan, Fernando Ruiz, Harold T. Shapiro, Lyle Logan, Connie R. Curran, and Julia McGee breached their fiduciary duties to DeVry by failing to disclose the same allegedly abusive and fraudulent recruiting and financial aid lending practices alleged in the Shareholder Case. The Derivative Actions also allege that DeVry’s officers and directors unjustly enriched themselves and wasted DeVry’s assets by (i) causing DeVry to incur substantial costs in defending the Shareholder Case; (ii) causing DeVry to pay compensation plansand benefits to individuals who breached their fiduciary duties; (iii) causing potential losses from “certain of DeVry’s programs no longer being eligible for admission representatives violatedfederal financial aid;” and (iv) damaging DeVry’s corporate image and goodwill. DeVry and its executives and directors believe the Higher Education Actallegations contained in the Derivative Actions are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously.

Although DeVry believes that the Shareholder Case and the Department of Education regulations prohibiting an institution participating in Title IV programs from providing to any person or entity engaged in any student recruitment or admissions activity any commission, bonus or other incentive payment based directly or indirectly on success in securing enrollments.  A number of similar lawsuits have been filed in recent years against educational institutions that receive Title IV funds.  On January 26, 2009, DeVry filed a motion to dismissDerivative Actions are without merit, the first amended complaint entirely.  On March 4, 2009, the District Court granted DeVry’s motion to dismiss, entering judgment and dismissing the case with prejudice.  On March 16, 2009, Shultz appealed the dismissal to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.  On June 23, 2009, a settlement in principle was reached between DeVry and Ms. Shultz in connection with a court-sponsored mediation process whereby DeVry would stand by its consistently-held position denying any wrong doing and pay $4.9 million to finally resolve the matter, and avoid the costs and distraction of a potentially protracted appeals process. The settlement is conditioned upon obtaining approval of the Department of Justice and finalizing settlement terms that would release DeVry from other False Claims Act cases based upon the conduct covered by the settlement.  DeVry and Ms. Shultz have submitted the settlement to the United States Department of Justice for its approval.  Should the parties fail to conclude the settlement on the proposed or other terms, the appeal to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals will resume.



The ultimate outcome of pending litigation and other proceedings, reviews, investigations and contingencies is difficult to estimate.predict. At this time, DeVry does not expect that the outcome of any such matter including the litigation described above, will have a material effect on its cash flows, results of operations or financial position.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Student Payments


DeVry’s primary source of liquidity is the cash received from payments for student tuition, books, other educational suppliesmaterials and fees. These payments include funds originating as financial aid from various federal, state and provincial loan and grant programs; student and family educational loans (“private loans”); employer educational reimbursements; and student and family financial resources. Private loans as a percentpercentage of DeVry’s total revenue are relatively small.


In connection with the turmoil in the credit markets and economic downturn over the past twelve months,three years, some lenders announced that they were changingchanged or exitingexited certain private loan programs. Also, certain lenders have tightened underwriting criteria for private loans. To date, these actions have not had a material impact on DeVry’s students’ ability to access funds for their educational needs and thus its enrollments. DeVry monitors the student lending situation very closely and continues to pursue all available financing options for its students, including its DeVry University EDUCARD® program.


DeVry’s institutional loan programs.

The following table summarizes DeVry’s cash receipts from tuition and related fee payments by fund source as a percentage of total revenue for the fiscal years 20082011 and 2007,2010, respectively. Final data for fiscal year 2009 is2012 are not yet available.

The pattern of cash receipts during the year is somewhat seasonal. DeVry’s accounts receivable peak immediately after bills are issued each semester. Historically, accounts receivable reach their lowest level at the end of each semester/session, dropping to their lowest point during the year at the end of June.


At June 30, 2009,2012, total accounts receivable, net of related reserves, was $104.4$113.9 million, compared to $55.2$114.7 million at June 30, 2008. Nearly seventy-five percent of the increase was due to2011. The decrease in net accounts receivable associated withwas attributable to improved collections management and the respective acquisitions of U.S. Education and Fanor.  The remainder ofimpact on receivables from the increase was primarily attributable todecrease in revenue at Carrington, partially offset by the impact on receivables from revenue growth across all four business segmentsthe other businesses in the Medical and Healthcare segment as compared to the year-ago period.


To reduce the level of interim student financing under the DeVry University undergraduate EDUCARD® program, many students participate in supplementary loan programs funded by private lenders. The supplementary loans are aimed at students whose federal and state funded financial aid is not sufficient to cover all their costs of education. DeVry has entered into a limited default risk sharing arrangement for some of these loans. At June 30, 2009, DeVry had reserved for and recognized as expense the amount of DeVry’s share of the default risk.


Financial Aid

Like other higher education institutions, DeVry is highly dependent upon the timely receipt of federal financial aid funds. All financial aid and assistance programs are subject to political and governmental budgetary considerations. In the United States, the Higher Education Act (“HEA”) guides the federal government’s support of postsecondary education. The HEA was reauthorized by the United States CongressIf there are changes to financial aid programs that restrict student eligibility or reduce funding levels, DeVry’s financial condition and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. Please see Item 1A Risk Factors in July 2008, and was signed into law by the Presidentthis Annual Report on August 14, 2008.



student financial aid related risks.

In addition, government-funded financial assistance programs are governed by extensive and complex regulations in both the United States and Canada. Like any other educational institution, DeVry’s administration of these programs is periodically reviewed by various regulatory agencies and is subject to audit or investigation by other governmental authorities. Any violation could be the basis for penalties or other disciplinary action, including initiation of a suspension, limitation or termination proceeding. Previous Department of Education and state regulatory agency program reviews have not resulted in material findings or adjustments against DeVry.


A U.S. Department of Education regulation known as the “90/10 Rule” affects only proprietary postsecondary institutions, such as DeVry University, Ross University School of Medicine, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, American University of the Caribbean, Chamberlain, ApolloCarrington College and Western Career College.Carrington College California. Under this regulation, an institution that derives more than 90% of its revenues from federalTitle IV student financial assistance programs in any year may not participate in these programs for the following year.

The following table details the percentpercentage of revenue from federal financial assistance programs for each of DeVry’s Title IV eligible institutions for fiscal years 20082011 and 2007,2010, respectively. Final data for fiscal year 20092012 is not yet available.

DeVry University’s percent of revenue from federal financial assistance programs increased in fiscal year 2008 as compared to fiscal year 2007 primarily due to increased loan and grant limits. Chamberlain College of Nursing’s percent of revenue from federal financial assistance programs decreased in fiscal year 2008 as compared to fiscal year 2007 primarily due to an increase of students in the RN-to-BSN completion program who receive employer reimbursement or are self-pay students.

Under the terms of DeVry’s participation in financial aid programs, certain cash received from state governments and the U.S. Department of Education is maintained in restricted bank accounts. DeVry receives these funds either after the financial aid authorization and disbursement process for the benefit of the student is completed, or just prior to that authorization. Once the authorization and disbursement process for a particular student is completed, the funds may be transferred to unrestricted accounts and become available for DeVry to use in current operations. This process generally occurs during the academic term for which such funds have been authorized.

As described in more detail in “Item 1. Description of Business,” institutions must meet a financial responsibility test if their students participate in federal financial assistance programs. The Department of Education relies on a test that considers equity, primary reserve,Equity, Primary Reserve, and net incomeNet Income ratios, with a minimum required score of 1.5. Management has calculated DeVry’s composite score at June 30, 2009,2012, and determined that it exceeds 1.5. Management believes DeVry will continue to demonstrate the required level of financial stability.


Cash from Operations


Cash generated from operations in fiscal year 20092012 was $249.6$277.4 million, compared to $198.6$408.0 million in the prior year period. Cash flow from operations increased $40.1decreased $188.4 million due to higherlower net income.  Greaterincome compared to fiscal 2011. This was partially offset by $94.4 million in non-cash impairment charges included in net income in fiscal 2012. In addition, cash flow was alsofrom operations decreased $5.1 million compared to the prior year as a result of an increase in deferred tuition revenue and advanced tuition paymentsaccounts receivable, net of $12.0 million driven by increased student enrollments and timingrelated reserves, which resulted from higher revenues in the receipt of student payments priorMedical and Healthcare and International, K-12 and Professional Education segments. The change in net deferred income tax liabilities resulted in a $34.1 million reduction in operating cash flows compared to the start of the term.prior year. An increase in non-cash expenses for depreciation, amortizationnet gains on the sale and stock-based compensationdisposition of assets resulted in a $12.4an additional $3.0 million greater source of cash.reduction to operating cash flows compared to the prior year. In addition, cash flow from operations increaseddecreased by a $13.0$34.8 million compared to fiscal 2012 from a greater sourcelarger use of cash compared to the prior year for changes in levels of prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses.  These increases in operating cash flow were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable, net of related reserves, of $8.8 million as a result of revenue growth across all four business segments as compared to the year-ago period. Variations in the levels of accrued and prepaid expenses and accounts payable from period to period are caused, in part, by the timing of the period-end relative to DeVry’s payroll and bill payment cycles.



During fiscal year 2009, DeVry’s investments These decreases in municipal auction rate securities continued to remain illiquid. The auction-rate securities are investment-grade, long-term debt obligations with contractual maturities ranging from 17 to 32 years.  They are secured by student loans, which are guaranteed by U.S. and state governmental agencies. Liquidity for these securities has in the past been provided by an auction process that has allowed DeVry and other investors in these instruments to obtain immediate liquidity by selling the securities at their face amounts. Disruptions in credit markets over the past year, however, have adversely affected the auction market for these types of securities. Auctions for these securities have not produced sufficient bidders to allow for successful auctions since February 2008. As a result, DeVry has been unable to liquidate its auction-rate securities and there can be no assurance that DeVry will be able to access the principal value of these securities prior to their maturity.

For each unsuccessful auction, the interest rates on these securities are reset to a maximum rate defined by the terms of each security, which in turn is reset on a periodic basis at levels which are generally higher than defined short-term interest rate benchmarks.  To date DeVry has collected all interest payable on all of its auction-rate securities when due and expects to continue to do so in the future.  Auction failures relating to this type of security are symptomatic of current conditions in the broader debt markets and are not unique to DeVry.  DeVry intends to hold its portfolio of auction-rate securities until successful auctions resume; a buyer is found outside of the auction process; the issuers establish a different form of financing to replace these securities; or its broker, UBS Financial Services (UBS), purchases the securities (as discussed below).

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, DeVry agreed to accept Auction Rate Security Rights (the Rights) from UBS (its broker for the Auction Rate Securities).  The Rights permit DeVry to sell, or put, its auction rate securities back to UBS at par value at any time during the period from June 30, 2010 through July 2, 2012. DeVry expects to exercise its Rights and put the auction rate securities back to UBS on June 30, 2010, the earliest date allowable under the Rights, unless auctions resume; a buyer is found outside of the auction process; or the issuers establish a different form of financing to replace the securities.

Prior to accepting the Rights agreement, DeVry had the intent and ability to hold these securities until anticipated recovery. Accordingly, DeVry had recognized the unrealized loss previously as a temporary impairment in Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders’ Equity.  After accepting the Rights, DeVry no longer has the intent to hold the auction rate securities until anticipated recovery.  As a result, DeVry elected to reclassify its investments in auction rate securities as trading securities on the date of the acceptance of the Rights.  For fiscal year 2009, DeVry has recorded a $1.2 million unrealized net loss related to these investments.  The unrealized net loss is comprised of an other-than-temporary impairment of approximately $6.6 million on DeVry’s auction rate securities.  The impairment was measured as the difference between the par value and market value of the auction rate securities as of June 30, 2009.   The impairment wasoperating cash flows were partially offset by smaller decreases in the fair market valueeffects of the Rights of approximately $5.4 million at June 30, 2009.  DeVry will be permitted to put the auction rate securities back to UBS at par value, and DeVry has accounted for the Rights as a separate asset measured at its fair value.  DeVry will be required to assess the fair value of these two individual assets and record changes each period until the Rights are exercised and the auction rate securities are redeemed.  As a result, unrealized gains and losses will be included in earnings in future periods.   We expect that future changes in deferred tuition revenue and advanced tuition payments of $6.0 million as compared to the fair valueprior year. Also, an increase in non-cash expenses for depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation resulted in a $28.7 million greater source of cash compared to the Rights will approximate fair value movements in the related auction rate securities.  Although the Rights represent the right to sell the securities back to UBS at par, we are required to periodically assess the economic ability of UBS to meet that obligation in assessing the fair value of the Rights. UBS’s obligations under the Rights are not secured by its assets and do not require UBS to obtain any financing to support its performance obligations under the Rights. UBS has disclaimed any assurance that it will have sufficient financial resources to satisfy its obligations under the Rights.

Since management uses significant unobservable inputs in measuring the fair value of these auction rate securities and the related Rights, these investments are classified as Level 3 assets under the hierarchy established in SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). Accordingly, they are valued using a discounted cash flow model using assumptions that, in management’s judgment, reflect the assumptions a marketplace participant would use.  Significant unobservable inputs include collateralization of the respective underlying security; credit worthiness of the issuer and duration for holding the security.  With a June 30, 2009 balance of $58.3 million, the fair value of these Level 3 assets represented approximately 37% of all assets measured at fair value as of June 30, 2009.

While the auction failures will limit DeVry’s ability to liquidate these investments for some period of time, DeVry believes that based on its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances of $167.1 million (exclusive of auction-rate securities) and its current borrowing capacity of approximately $81 million under its $175 million revolving credit facility (DeVry has the option to expand the revolving credit facility to $275 million), the current lack of liquidity in the auction-rate market will not have a material impact on its ability to fund its operations, nor will it interfere with external growth plans.  Also, as of June 30, 2009, DeVry has borrowed through its broker, UBS, $44.8 million using the auction rate securities portfolio as collateral.  Should DeVry need to liquidate such securities and auctions of these securities continue to fail, or UBS is unable to meet its obligations under the Rights, any impairment of the carrying value of these securities could cause DeVry to recognize a material charge to net income in future periods.

Cash from Financing Activities


During fiscal year 2009, DeVry borrowed $46.3 million from UBS under a short-term uncommitted line of credit which is collateralized by DeVry’s auction rate securities portfolio, as discussed above.  DeVry has repaid $1.6 million of such borrowings.  In addition, DeVry had cumulative borrowings of $290 million and made cumulative repayments of $210 million under its existing revolving line of credit during fiscal year 2009.  DeVry incurred these borrowings to finance the acquisition of U.S. Education.  Also, DeVry repaid $12.7 million of Fanor’s outstanding debt.  As of June 30, 2009, DeVry holds an 82.3% equity ownership in Fanor through the initial majority acquisition on April 1, 2009 and subsequent recapitalizations.


2012, DeVry repurchased 707,533a total of approximately 4,258,000 shares of its stock, on the open market, for approximately $33.7 million$158.1 million. These shares were purchased under DeVry’s sixth share repurchase program, which was completed during fiscal year 2009.  These repurchases were made under a stock buyback2012, and its seventh program, thatwhich was authorized bycommenced in December 2011. As of June 30, 2012, the Board of Directors in May 2008.  The program provides up to $50 million of share repurchases through December 2010.  The total remaining authorization under thethis seventh repurchase program was $16.3 million as of June 30, 2009.$33.6 million. The timing and amount of any future repurchases under this program will be determined by DeVry management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. These repurchases may be made through the open market, including block purchases, or in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The buybackrepurchase of shares will be funded through available cash balances and/or borrowings under its revolving credit agreement and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.


Cash dividends paid during fiscal year 2012 were $10.0$18.4 million. DeVry’s Board of Directors declared a dividend on May 13, 200914, 2012 of $0.08$0.15 per share to common stockholders of record as of June 16, 2009.21, 2012. The total dividend of $5.7$9.7 million was paid on July 9, 2009.


11, 2012.

DeVry’s consolidated cash balances of $174.1 million at June 30, 2012, included approximately $103.3 million of cash attributable to DeVry’s international operations. It is DeVry’s intention to indefinitely reinvest this cash and subsequent earnings and cash flow to improve and expand facilities and operations of its international schools and pursue future business opportunities outside the United States. Therefore, cash held by international operations will not be available for domestic general corporate purposes. Management does not believe that this policy will adversely affect DeVry’s overall liquidity.

Historically, DeVry believes that it has produced positive domestic cash flows from operating activities sufficient liquidity despiteto fund the current disruptiondelivery of its domestic educational programs and services as well as to fund capital investment and other activities including share repurchases and dividend payments. In addition, DeVry maintains a $400 million revolving line of credit which can be expanded to $550 million at the option of DeVry. For fiscal year 2012, cash flows from domestic operating activities were approximately $172 million which when added to DeVry’s beginning of the credit markets.  year domestic cash balances, was sufficient to fund $107.1 million of domestic capital investment, pay dividends of $18.4 million and fund $158.1 million of common stock repurchases, in addition to funding other investment and financing activities.

Management believes that current balances of unrestricted cash, cash generated from operations and revolving loan facility will be sufficient to fund both DeVry’s current domestic and international operations and current growth plans, and current share repurchase program, for the foreseeable future unless future significant investment opportunities, similar to the acquisition of U.S. Education,AUC, should arise.


Revolving Credit Agreement


In January 2007,

On May 5, 2011, DeVry amended itsentered into a revolving credit agreementfacility which replaced the credit facility that was set to among other things, reduce the spreadexpire in January 2012. This new facility, which expires on applicable interest and fee rates; extend the remaining maturity to January 2012; revise and loosen certain financial covenants; and provide increased flexibility for acquisitions, dividends and/or share repurchase programs. AllMay 5, 2016, provides aggregate commitments including borrowings and letters of credit issuedof up to $400 million and, at the request of DeVry, can be increased to $550 million. Borrowings under this agreement will bear interest at the prime rate or at a LIBOR rate, at the option of DeVry, plus a pre-established margin. Outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit agreement are through DeVrycharged a fee for the undrawn face amount of the letter of credit, payable quarterly. The agreement also requires payment of a commitment fee for the undrawn portion of the credit facility. The interest rate margin, letter of credit fees and Global Education International (“GEI”), an international subsidiary.


commitment fees are adjustable quarterly, based upon DeVry’s achievement of certain financial ratios. DeVry’s letters of credit outstanding under the revolving credit facility were approximately $9.3 million as of June 30, 2012.

The following table summarizes the terms of the revolving credit agreement as amended in January 2007, and its status as of June 30, 2009:

The revolving credit agreement contains certain covenants that, among other things, require maintenance of certain financial ratios, as defined in the agreements. These financial ratios include a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, a consolidated leverage ratio and a composite Equity, Primary Reserve and Net Income Department of Education financial responsibility ratio (“DOE Ratio”). Failure to maintain any of these ratios or to comply with other covenants contained in the agreement will constitute an event of default and could result in termination of the agreements and require payment of all outstanding borrowings. DeVry was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2009.


2012.

Other Contractual Arrangements


DeVry’s long-term contractual obligations consist of its $175$400 million revolving line of credit (discussed above), operating leases on facilities and equipment, and agreements for various services.  DeVry has the option to expand the revolving credit facility to $275 million.  At June 30, 2009, DeVry had $80 million of outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit agreement, and there were no required payments under this borrowing agreement prior to its maturity.  DeVry’s letters of credit outstanding under the revolving credit facility were approximately $13.7 million as of June 30, 2009, which includes a letter of credit in the amount of $10.9 million issued for U.S. Education.



DeVry is not a party to any off-balance sheet financing or contingent payment arrangements, nor are there any unconsolidated subsidiaries. DeVry has not extended any loans to any officer, director or other affiliated person. DeVry has not entered into any synthetic leases, and there are no residual purchase or value commitments related to any facility lease. DeVry did not enter into any significant derivatives, swaps, futures contracts, calls, hedges or non-exchange traded contracts during fiscal year 2009 other than those associated with the acquisition of a majority interest in Fanor (see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).2012. DeVry had no open derivative positions at June 30, 2009.


DeVry’s consolidated cash balances of $165.2 million at June 30, 2009, included approximately $140.0 million of cash attributable to Ross University’s international operations.  It is DeVry’s intention to indefinitely reinvest this cash and subsequent earnings and cash flow to improve and expand facilities and operations of the Ross University and pursue future business opportunities outside the United States.  Therefore, cash held by Ross University will not be available for domestic general corporate purposes on a long-term basis.

2012.

As of the end of the fiscal year, DeVry had posted more than $22.6$20 million of surety bonds to various governmental jurisdictions on behalf of DeVry University, Chamberlain College of Nursing, ApolloCarrington College, Western CareerCarrington College California and Becker Professional ReviewEducation in the United States, and approximately CDN $0.3 million in Canada. The surety bonds are related primarily to student recruiting and educational operations. If DeVry were to fail to meet its obligations in these jurisdictions, it could be responsible for payment up to the amount of the related bond. To date, no surety bond has ever been paid because DeVry failed to meet its obligations.

ITEM 7A — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKRISK


DeVry is not dependent upon the price levels, nor affected by fluctuations in pricing, of any particular commodity or group of commodities. However, more than 50% of DeVry’s costs are in the form of employee wages and benefits. Changes in employment market conditions or escalations in employee benefit costs could cause DeVry to experience cost increases at levels beyond what it has historically experienced.


The financial position and results of operations of Ross University’s Caribbean operations as well as those of AUC are measured using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Substantially all Ross University and AUC financial transactions are denominated in the U.S. dollar.


The financial position and results of operations of DeVry’s Canadian educational programs are measured using the Canadian dollar as the functional currency. The Canadian operations have not entered into any material long-term contracts to purchase or sell goods and services, other than the lease agreement on a teaching facility. DeVry does not have any foreign exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments designed to mitigate changes in the value of the Canadian dollar. Because Canada-based assets and liabilities constitute less than 1.0% of DeVry’s overall assets and its Canadian liabilities constitute approximately 2% of overall liabilities, changes in the value of Canada’s currency at rates experienced during the past several years are unlikely to have a material effect on DeVry’s results of operations or financial position. Based upon the current value of the net assets in the Canadian operations, a change of $0.01 in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar would result in a translation adjustment of less than $100,000.


The financial position and results of operations of DeVry’s investment in FanorDeVry Brasil are measured using the Brazilian Real as the functional currency. FanorDeVry Brasil has not entered into any material long-term contracts to purchase or sell goods and services, other than the lease agreements on teaching facilities and contingencies relating to prior acquisitions. Currently, DeVry does not have any foreign exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments designed to mitigate changes in the value of the Brazilian Real. BecauseSince Brazilian-based assets constitute less than 1.0%approximately 6.0% of DeVry’s overall assets, and its Brazilian liabilities constitute approximately 2%6.2% of overall liabilities, and because there are very few transactions between DeVry Brasil and DeVry’s U.S. based subsidiaries, changes in the value of Brazil’s currency at rates experienced during the past several years are unlikely to have a material effect on DeVry’s results of operations or financial position.operations; however, the volatility of the Brazilian Real over the past 12 months has resulted in a $23 million charge to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in fiscal 2012. Based upon the current value of the net assets in Fanor’sDeVry Brasil’s operations, a change of $0.01 in the value of the Brazilian Real relative to the U.S. dollar would result in a translation adjustment to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income of less than $100,000.

approximately $1.6 million.

The interest rate on DeVry’s debt is based upon LIBOR interest rates for periods typically ranging from one to three months. Based upon DeVry’s total borrowings of $124.8$50 million, at June 30, 2009, a 100 basis point increase in short-term interest rates would result in approximately $1.2$0.5 million of additional annual interest expense. At June 30, 2012, DeVry had no outstanding borrowings. However, future investment opportunities and cash flow generated from operations may affect the level of outstanding borrowings and the effect of a change in interest rates.

DeVry’s customers are principally individual students enrolled in its various educational programs. Accordingly, concentration of accounts receivable credit risk is small relative to total revenues or accounts receivable.


DeVry’s cash is held in accounts at various large, financially secure depository institutions. Although the amount on deposit at a given institution typically will exceed amounts subject to guarantee, DeVry has not experienced any deposit losses to date, nor does management expect to incur such losses in the future.

ITEMITEM 9A — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Principal Executive, CEO, and Principal Financial Officer, CFO, Certificates


The required compliance certificates signed by DeVry’s CEO and CFO are included as Exhibits 31 and 32 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to help ensure that all the information required to be disclosed in DeVry’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the applicable rules and forms.


DeVry has a Senior Vice President and Chief Compliance Officer to oversee all of its regulatory affairs, internal controls and compliance efforts, including those related to disclosure controls and procedures and those relating to internal control over financial reporting. In addition, DeVry has a Corporate Compliance Officer, reporting to this Senior Vice President to further enhance DeVry’s efforts in these important areas. DeVry has also engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP to work in conjunction with its own internal audit resources to conduct the testing and review that leads to management’s assessment of internal controls.

DeVry’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, that DeVry’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”))Act) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that DeVry files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to DeVry’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


The management of DeVry is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined by Rule 13a — 15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


As of June 30, 2009,2012, DeVry’s management has assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, using the criteria embodied by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission’s 1992 reportInternal Control — Integrated Framework.Based upon this assessment, DeVry concluded that as of June 30, 2009,2012, its internal control over financial reporting was effective based upon these criteria.


The effectiveness of DeVry’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 20092012 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.


Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


As of June 30, 2009, management successfully integrated U.S. Education operations and extended DeVry’s Section 404 compliance program under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations under such Act to include U.S. Education.  Management is in the process of integrating Fanor’s operations.  Management does not consider Fanor to be material to DeVry’s Consolidated Financial Statements nor does management believe that Fanor’s internal controls and procedures have a material effect on DeVry’s internal control over financial reporting.

There were no other changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 20092012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, DeVry’s internal control over financial reporting.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation


The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DeVry and its wholly-owned and majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Where our ownership interest is less than 100 percent, the minoritynoncontrolling ownership interests are reported on our consolidated balance sheet. The minoritynoncontrolling ownership interest in our earnings is classified as “Minority“Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest” in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Unless indicated, or the context requires otherwise, references to years refer to DeVry’s fiscal years.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents can include time deposits, high-grade commercial paper, money market funds and bankers acceptances with original maturities of three months or less. Short-term investment objectives are to minimize risk and maintain liquidity. These investments are stated at cost, which approximates market, because of their short duration or liquid nature. DeVry places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. Cash and cash equivalent balances are generally in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. DeVry has not experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents.


Management periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of the security issuers and financial institutions with which it invests and maintains deposit accounts.


Financial Aid and Restricted Cash


Financial aid and assistance programs, in which most DeVry University, Ross University School of Medicine and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Chamberlain, ApolloCarrington College and Western CareerCarrington College California students participate, are subject to political and governmental budgetary considerations. There is no assurance that such funding will be maintained at current levels. Extensive and complex regulations in the United States, Canada and CanadaBrazil govern all of the government financial assistance programs in which students participate. Administration of these programs is periodically reviewed by various regulatory agencies. Any regulatory violation could be the basis for disciplinary action, including the initiation of a suspension, limitation or termination proceeding.


A significant portion of revenue is received from students who participate in government financial aid and assistance programs. Restricted cash represents amounts received from the federal and state governments under various student aid grant and loan programs and, such restricted funds are held in separate bank accounts. Once the financial aid authorization and disbursement process for the student has been completed, the funds are transferred to unrestricted accounts, and these funds then become available for use in DeVry’s current operations. This authorization and disbursement process that precedes the transfer of funds generally occurs within the period of the academic term for which such funds were authorized.


In fiscal year 2009,2012, as part of continuing operations in Pennsylvania, DeVry was required to maintain a “minimum protective endowment” of at least $500,000. These funds are required as long as DeVry operates campuses in the state. DeVry accounts for these funds as restricted cash.


Marketable Securities and Investments


DeVry owns investments in marketable securities that have been designated as “available for sale” or “trading securities” in accordance with SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS 115”).authoritative guidance. Available for sale securities are carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Trading securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Interest and Other income/(expense)Income (Expense).



Marketable securities and investments consist of auction-rate securities and put rights on these securities which are classified as trading securities and investments in mutual funds which are classified as available-for-sale securities. The following is a summary of our available-for-sale marketable securities at June 30, 20092012 (dollars in thousands):

     Gross Unrealized

Investments are classified as short-term if they are readily convertible to cash or have other characteristics of short-term investments such as highly liquid markets or maturities within one year. All mutual fund investments are recorded at fair market value based upon quoted market prices. At June 30, 2009,2012, all of the Bond and Stock mutual fund investments are held in a rabbi trust for the purpose of paying benefits under DeVry’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan.


As of June 30, 2009,2012, all unrealized losses in the above table have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than one year. When evaluating its investments for possible impairment, DeVry reviews factors such as length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer, and DeVry’s ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time that may be sufficient for anticipated recovery in fair value. The decline in value of the above investments is considered temporary in nature and, accordingly, DeVry does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2009.


The following is a summary of our investments at June 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

     Gross Unrealized    
  Cost  (Loss)  Gain  Fair Value 
Investments:            
Auction Rate Securities (ARS) $59,475  $(6,615) $-  $52,860 
Put Rights on ARS   -   -   5,391   5,391 
Total Investments $59,475  $(6,615) $5,391  $58,251 

As shown in the table above, as of June 30, 2009, DeVry held auction-rate debt securities in the aggregate principal amount of $59.5 million. The auction-rate securities are investment-grade, long-term debt obligations with contractual maturities ranging from 17 to 32 years.  They are secured by student loans, which are guaranteed by U.S. and state governmental agencies. Liquidity for these securities has in the past been provided by an auction process that has allowed DeVry and other investors in these instruments to obtain immediate liquidity by selling the securities at their face amounts. Disruptions in credit markets over the past year, however, have adversely affected the auction market for these types of securities. Auctions for these securities have not produced sufficient bidders to allow for successful auctions since February 2008. As a result, DeVry has been unable to liquidate its auction-rate securities and there can be no assurance that DeVry will be able to access the principal value of these securities prior to their maturity.

For each unsuccessful auction, the interest rates on these securities are reset to a maximum rate defined by the terms of each security, which in turn is reset on a periodic basis at levels which are generally higher than defined short-term interest rate benchmarks.  To date DeVry has collected all interest payable on all of its auction-rate securities when due and expects to continue to do so in the future.  Auction failures relating to this type of security are symptomatic of current conditions in the broader debt markets and are not unique to DeVry.  DeVry intends to hold its portfolio of auction-rate securities until successful auctions resume; a buyer is found outside of the auction process; the issuers establish a different form of financing to replace these securities; or its broker, UBS Financial Services (UBS), purchases the securities (as discussed below).

On August 8, 2008, UBS announced that it had reached a settlement, in principle, with the New York Attorney General, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the Securities and Exchange Commission and other state regulatory agencies represented by North American Securities Administrators Association to restore liquidity to all remaining clients' holdings of auction rate securities.  Under this agreement in principle, UBS has committed to provide liquidity solutions to institutional investors, including DeVry.  During the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, DeVry agreed to accept Auction Rate Security Rights (the Rights) from UBS. The Rights permit DeVry to sell, or put, its auction rate securities back to UBS at par value at any time during the period from June 30, 2010 through July 2, 2012. We expect to exercise our Rights and put our auction rate securities back to UBS on June 30, 2010, the earliest date allowable under the Rights, unless auctions resume; a buyer is found outside of the auction process; or the issuers establish a different form of financing to replace these securities.


Prior to accepting the Rights agreement, DeVry had the intent and ability to hold these securities until anticipated recovery. As a result, DeVry had recognized the unrealized loss previously as a temporary impairment in Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders’ Equity.  After accepting the Rights, DeVry no longer has the intent to hold the auction rate securities until anticipated recovery.  As a result, DeVry has elected to reclassify its investments in auction rate securities as trading securities on the date of the acceptance of the Rights. Therefore, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of approximately $10.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The charge was measured as the difference between the par value and market value of the auction rate securities on December 31, 2008. However, as DeVry will be permitted to put the auction rate securities back to UBS at par value, DeVry accounted for the Rights as a separate asset measured at its fair value, which resulted in a gain of approximately $8.6 million recorded at December 31, 2008.  As of June 30 2009, DeVry revalued the auction rate securities and the Rights using current discount rates and risk premiums. This resulted in a gain in the value of the auction rate securities decreasing the net loss for fiscal 2009 to approximately $6.6 million and a loss in the value of the Rights decreasing the net gain for fiscal 2009 to approximately $5.4 million, both of which are recorded in fiscal 2009 operating results.  The Rights do not meet the definition of a derivative instrument under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 133”).  Therefore, we elected to measure the Rights at fair value under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”), which permits an entity to elect the fair value option for recognized financial assets, in order to match the changes in the fair value of the auction rate securities. DeVry will be required to assess the fair value of these two individual assets and record changes each period until the Rights are exercised and the auction rate securities are redeemed.   As a result, unrealized gains and losses will be included in earnings in future periods.   We expect that future changes in the fair value of the Rights will generally offset fair value movements in the related auction rate securities.  Although the Rights represent the right to sell the securities back to UBS at par, we will be required to periodically assess the economic ability of UBS to meet that obligation in assessing the fair value of the Rights. UBS’s obligations under the Rights are not secured by its assets and do not require UBS to obtain any financing to support its performance obligations under the Rights.  UBS has disclaimed any assurance that it will have sufficient financial resources to satisfy its obligations under the Rights.  We have classified the auction rate securities as current investments as settlement is expected on June 30, 2010, and management intends to exercise its Rights and put the auction rate securities back to UBS.

As described above, changing market conditions have reduced liquidity for Auction Rate Securities.  These investments, including the put rights, are valued using internally-developed pricing models with observable and unobservable inputs.

Realized gains and losses are computed on the basis of specific identification and are included in Interest and Other income/(expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. DeVry has not recorded any realized gains or realized losses for fiscal 2009.2012. See Note 4 for further disclosures on the Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

While the auction failures will limit DeVry’s ability to liquidate these investments for some period of time, DeVry believes that based on its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances of $167 million (exclusive of auction-rate securities) and its current borrowing capacity of approximately $81 million under its $175 million revolving credit facility (DeVry has the option to expand the revolving credit facility to $275 million), the current lack of liquidity in the auction-rate market will not have a material impact on its ability to fund its operations, nor will it interfere with external growth plans.  Also, as of June 30, 2009, DeVry has borrowed through its broker, UBS, $44.8 million using the auction rate securities portfolio as collateral (see “Note 11 – Debt”).  Should DeVry need to liquidate such securities and auctions of these securities continue to fail, and UBS is unable to meet their obligations under the Rights, future impairment of the carrying value of these securities could cause DeVry to recognize a material charge to net income in future periods.

On March 10, 2009, the Company signed an agreement to acquire a majority stake in Fanor, a leading provider of private postsecondary education in northeastern Brazil (see “Note 6 – Business Combinations”). The purchase was closed on April 1, 2009.  Under the terms of the agreement, the purchase price was paid in Brazilian Real.  During March 2009, DeVry purchased a non-deliverable foreign exchange forward contract in the amount of the expected cash outlay to close the transaction, in order to protect against a strengthening in the value of the Brazilian Real.  This contract was settled in March by purchasing another foreign exchange contract to offset the first position, once the necessary cash was delivered to Brazil. DeVry recognized a gain on the settlement of approximately $1.3 million due to the strengthening of the Brazilian Real. This gain is included in Interest and Other (Expense) Income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.


Revenue Recognition

DeVry University tuition revenues are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the applicable academic term. Ross University and AUC basic science curriculum revenues are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the academic term. The clinical portion of the Ross University and AUC education programprograms is conducted under the supervision of the U.S. teaching hospitals and veterinary schools. Ross University isand AUC are responsible for the billing and collection of tuition from its students during the period of clinical education. Revenues are recognized on a weekly basis based on actual education program attendance during the period of the clinical program. Fees paid to the hospitals and veterinary schools for supervision of Ross University and AUC students are charged to expense on the same basis. U.S. Education,Carrington, Chamberlain and FanorDeVry Brasil tuition and fee revenues are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the applicable academic term. AAI tuition and fee revenues are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the applicable course term or the license period depending on the type of contract. The provision for refunds, which is reported as a reduction to Tuition Revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Income, and the provision for uncollectible accounts, which is included in the Cost of Educational Services in the Consolidated Statements of Income, also are recognized in the same ratable fashion as revenue to most appropriately match these costs with the tuition revenue in that term.


Estimates of DeVry’s expected refunds are determined at the onset of each academic term, based upon actual experience in previous terms, and monitored and adjusted as necessary within the term. If a student leaves school prior to completing a term, federal, state and/or Canadian provincial regulations and accreditation criteria permit DeVry to retain only a set percentage of the total tuition received from such student, which varies with, but generally equals or exceeds, the percentage of the term completed by such student. Payment amounts received by DeVry in excess of such set percentages of tuition are refunded to the student or the appropriate funding source. All refunds are charged against revenue during the applicable academic term. ReservesThe allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined by analyzing the current aging of accounts receivable and historical loss rates on collections of accounts receivable. In addition, management considers projections of future receivable levels and collection loss rates. We perform this analysis periodically throughout the year. Provisions required to maintain the allowance at appropriate levels are analyzed periodicallycharged to expense in light of current collection and loss experience.each period as required. Related reserves with respect to uncollectible accounts and refunds totaled $55,118,000$58.9 million and $35,880,000$64.3 million at June 30, 20092012 and June 30, 2008,2011, respectively.


Sales of textbooks, electronic course materials, and other educational products, including training services and the Becker CD-ROMDVD product, are included in Other Educational Revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Textbook, electronic course materials and other educational product revenues are recognized when the sale occurs. Revenues from training services, which are generally short-term in duration, are recognized when the training service is provided. In addition, fees from international licensees of the Becker programs are included in Other Educational Revenues and recognized in income when confirmation of course delivery is received.


DeVry defers DeVry University enrollment fee revenue. This deferred revenue is recognized in subsequent periods as student services are provided. Additionally, DeVry has elected to defer certain direct costs of activities associated with these fees, limited to the extent of the revenue deferral. These costs are subsequently amortized over the periods in which student services are provided. Similar enrollment fee revenue and cost deferrals are recorded at Ross University and Becker. Since changes to the deferrals involve the recording of equivalent amounts of revenues and costs, net income is not affected.

Land, Buildings and Equipment


Land, buildings and equipment, including both purchased and internal-use software development costs, are recorded at acquisition cost. Cost also includes additions and those improvements that enhance performance, increase the capacity or lengthen the useful lives of the assets. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of an asset, the accounts are relieved of the cost and the related accumulated depreciation, with any resulting profit or loss included in income in the period incurred. Assets under construction are reflected in Construction in Progress until they are placed into service for their intended use. Interest is capitalized as a component of cost on major projects during the construction period.


Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Leased property meeting certain criteria is capitalized, and the present value of the related lease payments is recorded as a liability. Amortization of capitalized leased assets is computed on the straight-line method over the term of the lease or the life of the related asset, whichever is shorter.



Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated service lives. These lives range from five to 31 years for buildings and leasehold improvements, and from three to eight years for computers, furniture and equipment.


Internal-Use Software Development Costs

DeVry capitalizes certain internal-use software development costs that are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the software, not to exceed five years. Capitalized costs include external direct costs of equipment, materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software and payroll-related costs for employees directly associated with the internal-use software development project. Capitalization of such costs ceases at the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. Capitalized internal-use software development costs for projects not yet complete are included as construction in progress in the Land, Buildings and Equipment section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Costs capitalized during fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010 were approximately $18.9 million, $25.3 million and $36.2 million, respectively. In all three years these costs were primarily related to Project DELTA (a new student information system for DeVry University and Chamberlain College of Nursing). As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the net balance of capitalized software development costs was $74.7 million and $67.2 million, respectively.

Business Combinations, Intangible Assets and Goodwill


Intangible assets relate mainly to acquired business operations (see “Note 6-Business7 — Business Combinations”). These assets consist of the fair value of certain identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed.


In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles arising from a business combination 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, 2009.2012. For goodwill, if the carrying amount of the reporting unit containing the goodwill exceeds the fair value of that reporting unit, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent the “implied fair value” of the reporting unit goodwill is less than the carrying amount of the goodwill.


For indefinite-lived intangible assets, if the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. See “Note 7-Intangible8 — Intangible Assets” for results of DeVry’s required impairment analysis of its intangible assets and goodwill.


Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their expected economic lives, generally two to 15 years. Amortization of all intangible assets and certain goodwill is being deducted for tax reporting purposes over statutory lives.


DeVry expenses all curriculum development, new school opening and student recruiting costs as incurred.


Perkins Program Fund


DeVry University is required, under federal aid program regulations, to make contributions to the Perkins Student Loan Fund, most recently at a rate equal to 33% of new contributions by the federal government. No new federal contributions were received in fiscal 2009.years 2012 or 2011. DeVry carries its investment in such contributions at original values, net of allowances for expected losses on loan collections, of $2,562,000$2.6 million at June 30, 20092012 and 2008.2011. The allowance for future loan losses is based upon an analysis of actual

loan losses experienced since the inception of the program. As previous borrowers repay their Perkins loans, their payments are used to fund new loans, thus creating a revolving loan fund. The federal contributions to this revolving loan program do not belong to DeVry and are not recorded on its financial statements. Under current law, upon termination of the program by the federal government or withdrawal from future program participation by DeVry University, subsequent student loan repayments would be divided between the federal government and DeVry University to satisfy their respective cumulative contributions to the fund.


Internal Software Development Costs

DeVry capitalizes certain internal software development costs that are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the software, not to exceed five years. Capitalized costs include external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software, and payroll-related costs for employees directly associated with the internal software development project. Capitalization of such costs ceases at the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. Capitalized software development costs for projects not yet complete are included as equipment in the Land, Buildings and Equipment section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Costs capitalized during fiscal 2009 were approximately $8.7 million.  No costs were capitalized in fiscal 2008 and 2007. There were no capitalized software development costs for completed projects as of June 30, 2009.  As of June 30, 2008 the net balance of capitalized costs for completed projects, which are also included in the Land, Building and Equipment section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $2.0 million.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities and investments (see “Note 4 Fair Value of Financial Instruments”), accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and advanced and deferred tuition payments approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. All of DeVry’s current maturities and long-term debt (see “Note 11-Long-Term11 — Debt”) bear interest at a floating rate reset to current rates on a periodic basis not currently exceeding six months. Therefore, the carrying amount of DeVry’s long-term debt, if any, approximates fair value.



Foreign Currency Translation

The financial position and results of operations of the Ross University’sUniversity School of Medicine and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine and the AUC Caribbean operations are measured using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. As such, there is no translation gain or loss associated with these operations. The financial positionDeVry Brasil, DeVry’s Canadian operations and results of operations of FanorBecker’s ATC and DeVry’s CanadianHong Kong operations are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the Fanor and Canadian operationsthese entities are translated to U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates. Income and expense items are translated at monthly average rates of exchange. The resultant translation adjustments are included in the component of Shareholders’ Equity designated as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Transaction losses for the year ended June 30, 2009 totaled $0.9 million. Transaction gains or losses during the years June 30, 20082012, 2011 and 20072010 were not material.


Income Taxes


DeVry accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. DeVry also recognizes future tax benefits associated with tax loss and credit carryforwards as deferred tax assets. DeVry’s deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance, when in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. DeVry measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which DeVry expects to recover or settle the temporary differences. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred taxes is recognized in the period that the change is enacted. DeVry reduces its net tax assets for the estimated additional tax and interest that may result from tax authorities disputing uncertain tax positions DeVry has taken.

Guarantees


Under its bylaws, DeVry has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officers or directors are performing at DeVry’s request in such capacity. The indemnification agreement period is for an officer’s or director’s lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments DeVry could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, DeVry has a director and officer liability insurance policy that limits its exposure and enables it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. Management believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. DeVry has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of June 30, 20092012 and 2008.


Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

2011.

Non-Controlling Interest

DeVry maintains an 83.5 percent ownership interest in DeVry Brasil with the remaining 16.5 percent owned by the current DeVry Brasil management group. Beginning January 2013, DeVry has used derivative financial instrumentsthe right to manageexercise a call option and purchase any remaining DeVry Brasil stock from DeVry Brasil management. Likewise, DeVry Brasil management has the right to exercise a put option and sell its exposureremaining ownership interest in DeVry Brasil to movementsDeVry. These options may become exercisable prior to January 2013 if DeVry Brasil’s management ownership interest falls below five percent. Since the put option is out of the control of DeVry, authoritative guidance requires the non-controlling interest, which includes the value of the put option, to be displayed outside of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

The DeVry Brasil management put option is being accreted to its redemption value in interest rates. DeVry has not used any such financial instruments since the first quarter of fiscal 2006.  The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risksaccordance with the intentstock purchase agreement. The adjustment to reduceincrease or decrease the riskput option to DeVry.its expected redemption value each reporting period is recorded to retained earnings in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The adjustment to increase or decrease the DeVry does not use financial instruments for trading purposes, nor does it use leveraged financial instruments. Credit risk related to derivative financial instruments is considered minimal and is managed by requiring periodic settlements and high credit standardsBrasil non-controlling interest each reporting period for its counterparties.


All derivative contracts are reported at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in earnings or deferred, dependingproportionate share of DeVry Brasil’s profit/loss will continue to flow through the consolidated income statement based on the nature and effectivenessDeVry’s historical non-controlling interest accounting policy.

The following is a reconciliation of the offset or hedging relationship. Any ineffectiveness in a hedging relationship is recognized immediately in earnings.



Prepaid Clinical Fees

Clinical rotation costs for Ross University medical students are included in Cost of Educational Services.  Over the past several years, Ross University has entered into long-term contracts with a hospital group to secure clinical rotations for its students at fixed rates in exchange for prepayment of the rotation fees.   Under the contracts, the established rate-per-clinical rotation was being deducted from the prepaidnon-controlling interest balance and charged to expense as the medical students utilized the clinical clerkships.   Recently, the hospital group closed two of its hospitals due to financial difficulties.  To date, the hospital group has provided Ross with a limited number of additional clinical clerkships at its remaining hospital, but not nearly enough to offset the void created by the closure of its other two hospitals.  During April 2009, Ross filed a lawsuit against the hospital group to enforce the contract.  The suit seeks specific performance of the hospital group’s obligations to provide Ross with the prepaid clinical clerkships.  As of June 30, 2009, the outstanding balance of prepaid clinical rotations with this hospital group was approximately $8.1 million.  Though DeVry believes that Ross has a contractual right to utilize other clinical rotations within the hospital group’s system, given the business uncertainty of this situation, a reserve of $1.5 million has been provided against the prepaid balance and charged to Cost of Educational Services in the Consolidated Statements of Income during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

Earnings per Common Share


Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares assuming dilution. Dilutive shares are computed using the Treasury Stock Method and reflect the additional shares that would be outstanding if dilutive stock options were exercised during the period. Excluded from the June 30, 2009, 20082012, 2011 and 20072010 computations of diluted earnings per share were options to purchase 426,000, 495,0001,608,000, 1,210,000 and 915,000759,000 shares of common stock, respectively. These outstanding options were excluded because the option exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares;shares or the assumed proceeds upon exercise under the Treasury Stock Method resulted in the repurchase of more shares than would be issued; thus, their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Treasury Stock


DeVry’s Board of Directors has authorized stock repurchase programs on twoseven occasions (see “Note 5 –6 — Dividends and Stock Repurchase Program”). The first six repurchase program wasprograms are all completed in April 2008.as of June 2012. The secondseventh repurchase program was approved by the DeVry Board of Directors on November 2, 2011, and it was commenced in May 2008.late December 2011. Shares that are repurchased by DeVry are recorded as Treasury Stock at cost and result in a reduction of Shareholders’ Equity.


From time to time, shares of its common stock are delivered back to DeVry under a swap arrangement resulting from employees’ exercise of incentive stock options pursuant to the terms of the DeVry Stock Incentive Plans (see “Note 3 Stock-Based Compensation”). These shares are recorded as Treasury Stock at cost and result in a reduction of Shareholders’ Equity.


Treasury shares are reissued on a monthly basis at market value, to the DeVry Employee Stock Purchase Plan in exchange for employee payroll deductions.  In the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, 21,575 treasury shares were resold at a 10% discount to market value to three employees of U.S. Education Corporation (“U.S. Education”) upon the acquisition of that business (see “Note 6 – Business Combinations”). When treasury shares are reissued, DeVry uses an average cost method to reduce the Treasury Stock balance. Gains on the difference between the average cost and the reissuance price are credited to Additional Paid-in Capital. Losses on the difference are charged to Additional Paid-in Capital to the extent that previous net gains from reissuance are included therein; otherwise such losses are charged to Retained Earnings.



Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


DeVry maintains four stock-based award plans: the 1994 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan, the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2005 Incentive Plan. Under these plans, directors, key executives and managerial employees are eligible to receive incentive stock or nonqualified options to purchase shares of DeVry’s common stock. The 2005 Incentive Plan also permits the award of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance stock and other stock and cash based compensation. TheThough options remain outstanding under the 1994 and 1999 andStock Incentive Plans, no further stock based awards will be issued from these plans. The 2003 Stock Incentive Plans and the 2005 Incentive Plan are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Options are granted for terms of up to 10 years and can vest immediately or over periods of up to five years. The requisite service period is equal to the vesting period. The option price under the plans is the fair market value of the shares on the date of the grant.


DeVry accounts for options granted to retirement eligible employees that fully vest upon an employees’ retirement under the non-substantive vesting period approach to these options. Under this approach, the entire compensation cost is recognized at the grant date for options issued to retirement eligible employees.


At June 30, 2009, 5,279,8292012, 7,026,324 authorized but unissued shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under DeVry’s stock incentive plans.


DeVry has adopted the provisions of SFAS 123(R) which establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee requisite service period, reduced by an estimated forfeiture rate.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised for the years ended June 30, 2009, 20082012, 2011 and 20072010 was $15,868,000, $21,122,000$4.2 million, $7.5 million and $8,266,000,$16.8 million, respectively.

The fair value of DeVry’s stock-based awards was estimated using a binomial model. This model uses historical cancellation and exercise experience of DeVry to determine the option value. It also takes into account the illiquid nature of employee options during the vesting period.



The weighted average estimated grant date fair values as defined by SFAS 123(R), for options granted at market price under DeVry’s stock option plans during fiscal years 2009, 20082012, 2011 and 20072010 were $23.54, $16.41$17.31, $16.53 and $10.58,$23.11, per share, respectively. The fair values of DeVry’s stock option awards were estimated assuming the following weighted average assumptions:


  Fiscal Year

Expected Life (in Years)  6.79   6.60   6.67

Dividend yield

   0.38  0.29  0.31

Pre-vesting forfeiture rate

   5.00  5.00  5.00

The expected life of the options granted is based on the weighted average exercise life with age and salary adjustment factors from historical exercise behavior. DeVry’s expected volatility is computed by combining and weighting the implied market volatility, the most recent volatility over the expected life of the option grant, and DeVry’s long-term historical volatility. The pre-vesting forfeiture rate is based on DeVry’s historical stock option forfeiture experience.  The pre-vesting forfeiture assumption increased to 5.0% during fiscal year 2008 from 4.0% used in previous periods due to an increase in employee turnover.


If factors change and different assumptions are employed in the applicationvaluation of SFAS 123(R)stock-based awards in future periods, the stock-based compensation expense that DeVry records may differ significantly from what was recorded in the previous period.

During the fiscal year 2009,2012, DeVry granted 84,616324,690 shares of restricted stock to selected employees.  Theseemployees and non-employee directors. Of these, 64,710 are performance based shares which are earned by the recipients over a three year period based on achievement of specified DeVry return on invested capital targets. The remaining 259,980 shares and all other previously granted shares of restricted stock are subject to restrictions which lapse ratably over athree and four-year period fromperiods on the grant anniversary date based on the recipient’s continued service on the Board of Directors or employment with DeVry, or upon retirement. During the restriction period, the recipient of the non-performance based shares shall have a beneficial interest in the restricted stock and all associated rights and privileges of a stockholder, including the right to vote and receive dividends.

NOTE 4: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Effective July 1, 2008, MEASUREMENTS

DeVry adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP 157-2), DeVry deferred the adoption of SFAS No. 157 for our nonfinancialhas 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 and nonfinancial liabilities, including long-lived assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis such as goodwill and intangible assets, until July 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on our fair value measurements.


In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active ("FSP FAS 157-3").  FSP FAS 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and where current activity may not be representative of fair value.assets. Management has fully considered thisall authoritative guidance when determining the fair value of ourDeVry’s financial assets as of June 30, 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-4, “Determining 2012.

Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (FSP No. 157-4).  FSP No. 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157, when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FSP No. 157-4 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly.  Also in April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. 115-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments” (FSP No. 115-2).  FSP 115-2 establishes a new method of recognizing and reporting other-than-temporary impairments of debt securities and contains additional disclosure requirements.  Both FSP No. 157-4 and FSP No. 115-2 were effective for DeVry as of April 1, 2009.  Management has fully considered this guidance when determining the fair value of our financial assets as of June 30, 2009.


 SFAS 157 defines fair valuedefined 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. SFAS 157 alsoThe 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. In accordance with SFAS 157,The guidance establishes fair value measurements are classifiedmeasurement classifications under the following hierarchy:

Level 1 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2–2 — 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, DeVry uses quoted market prices to determine fair value, and such measurements are classified within Level 1. In some cases where market prices are not available, DeVry 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.

fiscal year 2012. See “Note 8: Intangible Assets” for further discussion on the impairment review including valuation techniques and assumptions.

During fiscal 2012, it was determined that the goodwill and the indefinite-lived intangible asset of the Carrington Colleges Group, Inc. (Carrington) and Advanced Academics Inc. (AAI) reporting units had been impaired.

To determine the fair value of the Carrington and AAI indefinite-lived intangible assets and AAI reporting units in our step one impairment analysis, a discounted cash flow valuation method was utilized incorporating assumptions that a reasonable market participant would use regarding the impact of the current operating losses and the increased uncertainty impacting future operations. We used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in our discounted cash flow valuation including future cash flow projections and discount rate assumptions.

Management’s impairment analysis resulted in an estimated fair value for the Carrington Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility intangible asset of $71.1 million which was $41.2 million less than its carrying value. Based on a calculation of the estimated fair value of the Carrington reporting unit and a hypothetical purchase price allocation which included the estimated fair value of the Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility intangible asset, management determined the Carrington reporting unit would have implied goodwill of $151.9 million. This was $33.8 million less than the carrying value of this reporting unit. Accordingly, Carrington’s Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility indefinite-lived intangible assets and the goodwill balance were considered to be impaired and were written down by $41.2 million and $33.8 million, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

Management’s impairment analysis resulted in an estimated fair value for the AAI reporting unit that was less than its carrying value by approximately $20 million. This difference was greater than the balance of AAI’s combined intangible assets and goodwill. As a result, management determined the indefinite-lived intangible asset and goodwill were considered to be impaired and should have zero balances. Accordingly, AAI’s Trade Name indefinite-lived intangible asset and the goodwill balance were written down by $1.3 million and $17.1 million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012

NOTE 5: FINANCING RECEIVABLES

DeVry’s institutional loan programs are available to students at its DeVry University, Chamberlain College of Nursing, Carrington College and Carrington College of California schools as well as selected students at Ross University School of Medicine. These loan programs are designed to assist students who are unable to completely cover educational costs by other means. These loans may be used for tuition, books, and fees, and are available only after all other student financial assistance has been applied toward those purposes. In addition, Ross University School of Medicine and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine loans may be used for students’ living expenses. Repayment plans for institutional loan program balances are developed to address the financial circumstances of the particular student. Interest charges accrue each month on the unpaid balance. After a student leaves school, the student typically will have a monthly installment repayment plan with all balances due within 12 to 60 months. In addition, the Becker CPA Review Course can be financed through Becker with a zero percent, 18-month term loan.

Reserves for uncollectible loans are determined by analyzing the current aging of accounts receivable and historical loss rates of loans at each educational institution. In addition, management considers projections of future receivable levels and collection loss rates. Management performs this analysis periodically throughout the year. Since all of DeVry’s financing receivables are generated through the extension of credit to students to fund educational costs, all such receivables are considered part of the same loan portfolio.

The following table details the institutional loan balances along with the related allowances for credit losses as of June 30, 2012 and 2011.

On May 13, 2008,20, 2011, the Company announced itsDeVry Board of Directors authorized a newsixth share repurchase program, which allows the companyallowed DeVry to repurchase up to $50$100 million of its common stock through June 30, 2013. This program was completed in late December 2011. On November 2, 2011, the DeVry Board of Directors authorized a seventh share repurchase program, which will allow DeVry to repurchase up to $100 million of its common stock through December 31, 2010. As of June 30, 2009, DeVry has repurchased, on the open market, 707,533 shares of its common stock at a total cost of approximately $33.7 million.2013. This program was commenced in late December 2011. The timing and amount of any repurchase will be determined by management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. These repurchases may be made through the open market, including block purchases, or in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise.

This change was necessitated by a decision made subsequent to June 30, 2009 to phase out this trade name over the two year period. This asset has a book value of $1.9 million as of June 30, 2009.  As of the latest impairment analysis completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, the asset’s fair value exceeded this book value.


Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”)

Authoritative guidance provides that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles arising from a business combination 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 during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 at which2012. At this time, thereit was determined that the goodwill and the indefinite-lived intangible asset of the Advanced Academics Inc. (AAI) reporting unit had been impaired. There was no impairment loss associated with recorded goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets for any other reporting unit, as estimated fair values exceedsexceeded the carrying amount.


During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, revenues and operating income for DeVry’s AAI reporting unit were significantly below management’s expectations driven by a larger than expected decline in school district contract revenue. During the first nine months of fiscal 2012, revenues were down approximately 5% compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and operating income was slightly below management’s expectations. AAI’s revenue declined 46% during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to the prior year fourth quarter. As a result of this significant decline in revenues, AAI generated an operating loss in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 that was significantly below management’s expectations which projected operating income for this period. Accordingly, management revised its forecast and future cash flow projections for AAI.

To determine the fair value of the AAI indefinite-lived intangible asset and AAI reporting unit in our step one impairment analysis, a discounted cash flow valuation method was utilized incorporating assumptions that a reasonable market participant would use regarding the impact of the current operating losses and the increased uncertainty impacting future operations. We used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in our discounted cash flow valuation including future cash flow projections and discount rate assumptions.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The estimate of fair value of each reporting unit is based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years along with a terminal value calculated based on discounted cash flows. These measures of business performance are similar to those management uses to evaluate the results of operations on a regular basis. The growth rates used to project cash flows, operating results and terminal values of reporting units are commensurate with historical results and analysis of the economic environment in which the reporting units operate. The valuations employ present value techniques to estimate fair value and consider market factors. Management believes the assumptions used for the impairment testing are consistent with those utilized by a market participant in performing similar valuations of its reporting units. A discount rate of 13% was utilized for the AAI reporting unit. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Management’s impairment analysis resulted in an estimated fair value for the AAI reporting unit that was less than its carrying value by approximately $20 million. This difference was greater than the balance of AAI’s combined intangible assets and goodwill. As a result, management determined the indefinite-lived intangible asset and goodwill were considered to be impaired and should have zero balances. Accordingly, AAI’s Trade Name indefinite-lived intangible asset and the goodwill balance were written down by $1.3 million and $17.1 million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

Management also evaluated AAI’s remaining long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, for recoverability and determined that the finite-lived intangible assets were completely impaired and had zero value. As a result, AAI’s Curriculum/Software and Consumer Contracts were written down by a total of $1.0 million. Property and equipment values were determined to be completely recoverable at their recorded net book values. Therefore in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, AAI’s goodwill and other intangibles impairment charges in the aggregate were $19.4 million, with an income tax benefit of $0.9 million for the write-down of the intangible assets. The goodwill write-down is not deductible for tax purposes.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, revenues and operating income for DeVry’s Carrington Colleges Group reporting unit were significantly below management’s expectations driven by a larger than expected decline in new student enrollments. Carrington’s revenue declined 27% during the second quarter as compared to the prior year. As a result of the significant decrease in revenue, Carrington generated an operating loss in the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 as compared to operating income in the year-ago period. Accordingly, management revised its forecast and future cash flow projections for Carrington.

Based upon these facts and circumstances, management performed an interim impairment review for the Carrington indefinite-lived intangible asset and the Carrington reporting unit. To determine the fair value of the Carrington indefinite-lived intangible asset and Carrington reporting unit in our interim step one impairment analysis, a discounted cash flow valuation method was utilized incorporating assumptions that a reasonable market participant would use regarding the impact of the current operating losses and the increased uncertainty impacting future operations. We used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in our discounted cash flow valuation including future cash flow projections and discount rate assumptions.

For indefinite-lived intangible assets, DeVry determines their fair value based on the nature of the asset using various valuation techniques including a discounted cash flow model for the Carrington Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility. The estimated fair values of indefinite-lived intangible assets are based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years. The assumed growth rates used to project cash flows and operating results are commensurate with historical results and analysis of the economic environment in which the reporting unit that records indefinite-lived intangible assets operates. The valuations employ present value techniques to measure fair value and consider market factors. Management believes the assumptions used for the impairment testing are consistent with those that would be utilized by a market participant in performing similar valuations of its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The discount rate of 14% that was utilized in the Carrington valuation takes into account management’s assumptions on growth rates and risk, both company specific and macro-economic, inherent in the reporting unit in addition to the specific risk of the Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility asset relative to Carrington’s other assets. This intangible asset is closely tied to the overall risk of the reporting unit in which it is recorded so management would expect the discount rate to approximate that used for valuing this reporting unit. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The estimate of fair value of each reporting unit is based on management’s projection of revenues, gross margin, operating costs and cash flows considering planned business and operational strategies over a long-term planning horizon of 5 years along with a terminal value calculated based on discounted cash flows.

A discount rate of 13% was utilized for the Carrington reporting unit. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Management’s interim impairment analysis resulted in an estimated fair value for the Carrington Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility intangible asset of $71.1 million which was $41.2 million less than its carrying value. Based on a calculation of the estimated fair value of the Carrington reporting unit and a hypothetical purchase price allocation which included the estimated fair value of the Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility intangible asset, management determined the Carrington reporting unit would have implied goodwill of $151.9 million. This was $33.8 million less than the carrying value of this reporting unit. Accordingly, Carrington’s Accreditation and Title IV Eligibility indefinite-lived intangible assets and the goodwill balance were considered to be impaired and were written down by $41.2 million and $33.8 million, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

Management also evaluated Carrington’s remaining long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, for recoverability and determined there was no impairment. Therefore in the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, Carrington’s goodwill and other intangibles impairment charges in the aggregate were $75.0 million, with an income tax benefit of $19.3 million for the write-down of the intangible asset. The goodwill write-down is not deductible for tax purposes.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit or an intangible asset involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Management bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable at the time, but such assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates, which could lead to additional impairments of reporting unit goodwill and intangible assets.

Total indefinite-lived intangible assets balancesincreased by $84.3 million from June 30, 2008, was2011. This increase is the result of the addition of $117.1 million and $15.8 million of indefinite-lived intangibles associated with the U.S Educationacquisitions of AUC and Fanor assets, includingFBV, respectively, offset by the impairment charges of $41.2 million at Carrington and $1.3 million at AAI as described above and the effects of translation. These entities were acquired byforeign currency translation on the DeVry during fiscal 2009, as describedBrasil assets. Since DeVry Brasil intangible assets are recorded in “Note 6-Business Combinations”.


NOTE 8:  REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS

In January 2009, DeVry bought out the lease on approximately 40 percentlocal Brazilian currency, fluctuations in the value of the space it occupied at its DeVry University campusBrazilian Real in Long Island City, New York.  Inrelation to the thirdU.S. dollar will cause changes in the balance of these assets.

NOTE 9: RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009,2012, DeVry recorded a pre-tax charge of approximately $4.0 million. The charge is composed of a $2.7 million cash outlay and a non-cash charge of $1.3 million related to the write-off of leasehold improvements, net of a deferred rent credit. This loss is separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and is related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.


In the second quarter of fiscal 2009, DeVry moved its Decatur, Georgia campus to a new leased facility.  The campus was previously located in an owned facility that is currently held as available for sale.  DeVry estimates the fair value of this property less costs to sell to be in excess of its carrying value; therefore, no impairment loss was recognized.

In February 2008, DeVry sold its facility located in Houston, Texas, for approximately $14.5 million in gross proceeds which resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $2.2 million.  In connection with the transaction, DeVry entered into an agreement to lease back approximately 60% of the original space in the facility.  The leaseback required the deferral of the gain on the sale.  The gain is being recognized ratably as a reduction to rent expense over the twelve year term of the lease agreement.

In September 2007, DeVry sold its facility located in Seattle, Washington, for approximately $12.4 million.  In connection with the sale, DeVry recorded a pre-tax loss of $5.4 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.  In the same transaction, DeVry sold its facility located in Phoenix, Arizona, for approximately $16.0 million which resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $7.7 million. In connection with the transaction, DeVry entered into agreements to lease back approximately 60% of the total space of both facilities.  The leaseback required the deferral of a portion of the gain on the sale of the Phoenix facility of approximately $6.6 million. This gain will be recognized as a reduction to rent expense over the ten year life of the lease agreement. The remaining pre-tax gain of $1.1 million was recorded during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.  In September 2007, DeVry exercised the option to purchase its leased facility in Alpharetta, Georgia, for $11.2 million.  Immediately following the acquisition, DeVry sold the facility to a different party for $11.2 million and executed a leaseback on the entire facility.  In connection with this transaction, DeVry accelerated to the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, the recognition of approximately $0.6 million of remaining deferred lease credits associated with the original lease.  The recorded net loss on the sale of the facilities and the recognition of the deferred lease credits are separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and are related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.
95

In March 2007, DeVry sold unused land located adjacent to its DeVry University campus in Tinley Park, Illinois for approximately $1.9 million. In connection with the sale, DeVry recorded a pre-tax gain of approximately $0.9 million during the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.  In September 2006, DeVry sold its facility located in West Hills, California for $36.0 million. In connection with the sale, DeVry recorded a pre-tax gain of $19.9 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2007.  DeVry relocated its West Hills campus operations to a leased facility in nearby Sherman Oaks, California.  These gains are separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and are related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.

NOTE 9:  REDUCTION IN WORKFORCE CHARGES

During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, DeVry offered a voluntary separation plan (VSP) to eligible DeVry University campus-based employees.  The decision to take this action resulted from a thorough analysis which revealed that a reduction in the number of employees at DeVry University campuses was warranted to address the subsidiary’s cost structure.  The VSP was offered at 22 DeVry University campuses with 285 employees being eligible to participate.  Seventy employees accepted this separation plan.   Separation of employment was effective no later than June 30, 2007.  DeVry recorded a pre-tax charge of approximately $3.7 million in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2007 in relation to these employees.  This charge consists of severance pay and extended medical and dental benefits coverage.

In April 2007, DeVry announced plans forimplemented an involuntary reduction in force (RIF) that further reduced its workforce by approximately 150570 positions at its DeVry University campus-based operations.across all reporting units. This resulted in an additionala pre-tax charge in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 of approximately $2.6$7.1 million that primarily represented severance pay and benefits in relation to these employees.

The VSP and RIF charges are separately classified in This was allocated to the Consolidated Statements of Incomesegments as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and are relatedfollows: $5.0 million to the Business Technology and Management, reportable segment.

$2.0 million to Medical and Healthcare and $0.1 million to International, K-12 and Professional Education. Cash payments for the VSPseverance charges and RIFrestructuring charges were approximately $0.15$1.4 million and $4.6 million, infor the yearsyear ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

DeVry has net operating loss carryforwards in various tax jurisdictions expiring at various times through the years ending June 30, 2029.


2032.

DeVry’s effective income tax rate reflects benefits derived from significant operations outside the United States. Earnings of Ross University’sthese international operations are not subject to U.S. federal or state income taxes. Sotaxes, so long as such earnings are not repatriated, as discussed below. The principal operatingFour of our subsidiaries, of Ross University are Ross University School of Medicine (the Medical School) incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Dominica, and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (the Veterinary School), incorporated under the laws of the Federation of St. Christopher, Nevis, St. Kitts in the West Indies.  BothIndies, and DeVry Brasil incorporated under the laws of Brazil, and AUC School of Medicine BV (AUC) incorporated under the laws of Sint Maarten all benefit from local tax incentives. The Medical and Veterinary Schools have agreements with the respective governments that exempt them from local income taxation through the years 2043 and 2023, respectively.


Earnings of Fanor’s operations are not subject to U.S. federal or state income taxes.  However, earnings of Fanor’s operations are subject to Brazilian income taxes.  Fanor’srespectively, while DeVry Brasil’s effective income tax rate reflects significant tax benefits derived from Fanor’stheir participation in PROUNI, a Brazilian program for providing scholarships to a portion of its undergraduate students.

As of June 30, 2009, valuation AUC’s effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from investment incentives.

Valuation allowances have been established for approximately $12.4$9.4 million as compared to $13.6and $6.9 million as offor the years ended June 30, 2008.  The decrease in valuation allowances in fiscal year 2009 was primarily related to the expected realization of additional state net operating loss carryforwards.2012 and 2011, respectively. The valuation allowances are composed of $6.5 million related to our Canadian subsidiary in both years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and $2.9 million and $0.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for certain state net operating loss carryforwards that may expire before their benefits are utilized and $3.0 million related to the historical federal net operating losses acquired as a result of the Advanced Academics acquisition.  The Canadian valuation allowances are composed of net operating losses of $2.5 million, depreciation of $3.5 million and $0.5 million of other deferred tax benefits.



utilized.

Based on DeVry’s expectations for future taxable income, management believes that it is more likely than not that operating income in respective jurisdictions will be sufficient to recognize fully all deferred tax assets, except as explained above.


During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, DeVry performed a detailed reconciliation of its deferred tax accounts and identified errors impacting prior years.  These errors had no impact on consolidated net income in fiscal years 2007, 2008, or 2009 and were immaterial to all individual prior years impacted.  As a result, and due to the fact that all of the errors related to financial periods prior to those presented in these Consolidated Financial Statements, DeVry has recorded an adjustment to decrease its deferred tax liabilities by $10.4 million and increase retained earnings by a corresponding amount as of July 1, 2006.  The fiscal year 2007 and 2008 amounts included within this 2009 Form 10-K have been revised to reflect this adjustment.

DeVry has not recorded a U.S. federal or state tax provision for the undistributed international earnings of the Medical and Veterinary Schools.its international subsidiaries. It is DeVry’s intention to indefinitely reinvest accumulated cash balances, future cash flows and post-acquisition undistributed earnings and profits to improve the facilities and operations of the Schoolsits international schools and pursue future opportunities outside of the United States. In accordance with this plan, cash held by Ross Universitythe international subsidiaries will not be available for general company purposes and under current laws will not be subject to U.S. taxation. Included in DeVry’s consolidated cash balances were approximately $140.0 million and $129.6 million attributable to Ross University’s international operations as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  As of June 30, 20092012 and 2008,2011, cumulative undistributed earnings attributable to international operations were approximately 201.9$414.0 million and $146.4$332.3 million, respectively.


The effective tax rate was 30.2%30.9% for fiscal year 2009,2012, compared to 27.1%33.1% for the prior year. The higherlower effective income tax rate in fiscal year 20092012 was due primarily due to an increasea decrease in the proportion of income generated by U.S. operations versus the offshore operations of Ross University as compared to the prior year.

Effective July 1, 2007, DeVry adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. The cumulative effects of applying this interpretation have been recorded as a decrease of $0.9 million to retained earnings, an increase of $0.5 million to net deferred income tax assets, a decrease of $4.2 million to net deferred income tax liabilities, an increase of $0.7 million to other accrued current taxes and an increase of $4.8 million to other accrued non-current taxes as of July 1, 2007.  In accordance with FIN 48, we classify uncertain tax positions as non-current tax liabilities unless expected to be paid in one year.

As of June 30, 20092012 the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions, including positions impacting only the timing of tax benefits, was $2.3$22.0 million. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate was $1.5$13.3 million. As of June 30, 2008,2011, our gross unrecognized tax benefits, including positions impacting only the timing of benefits, was $2.6$11.9 million. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $1.9$11.9 million. We expect that our unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by an insignificant amountapproximately $11.8 million during the next twelve months. DeVry classifies interest and penalties on tax uncertainties as a component of the provision for income taxes. The total amount of interest and penalties accrued as of adoptionJune 30, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was $0.5$1.9 million, $1.0 million, and at$0.7 million respectively. Interest and penalties recognized during the years ended June 20, 2009 was $0.5 million.30, 2012, 2011, and 2010 were $0.9 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million respectively.

NOTE 13: SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN


On November 24, 2004, DeVry adopted a shareholder rights plan. In connection with this plan, DeVry’s Board of Directors declared a dividend of one Common Stock Purchase Right (“Right” or “Rights”) for each outstanding share of DeVry Inc. Common Stock. The dividend was distributed on December 6, 2004 to shareholders of record on that date. Each shareholder is automatically entitled to the Rights and no physical distribution of new certificates was made.


Each Right, as represented by DeVry’s Common Stock certificates, currently entitles the holder to buy one one-thousandth of a share of DeVry’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $75 subject to adjustment, e.g. for stock splits or stock dividends. However, following the acquisition of 15% or more of DeVry Inc. Common Stock by a person or group, the holders of the Rights (other than the acquiring person or group) will be entitled to purchase shares of DeVry Inc. Common Stock at half of the then current fair market value. Further, in the event of a subsequent merger or other acquisition of DeVry, the holder of the Rights (other than the acquiring person or group) will be entitled to buy shares of common stock of the acquiring entity at one-half of the market price of these shares.

DeVry is subject to occasional lawsuits, administrative proceedings, regulatory reviews and investigations associated with financial assistance programs and other claimsmatters arising in the normal conduct of its business. The following is a description of pending litigation that may be considered other than ordinary and routine litigation that is incidental to the business.


On December 23, 2005, Saro Daghlian, a former DeVry University student in California, commenced a putative class action against DeVry University

The Boca Raton Firefighters’ and DeVry Inc. (collectively “DeVry”) in Los Angeles Superior Court, asserting various claims predicated upon DeVry’s alleged failure to comply with disclosure requirements under the California Education Code relating to the transferability of academic units.   In addition to the alleged omission, Daghlian also claimed that DeVry made untrue or misleading statements to prospective students, in violation of the California Unfair Competition Law ("UCL") and the California False Advertising Law, ("FAL").   DeVry removed the action to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.  In two Orders dated October 9, 2007, and December 31, 2007, the District Court entered judgment dismissing all of plaintiffs’ class and individual claims and awarded DeVry its cost of suit.  The final judgment was entered on January 3, 2008.  Plaintiffs appealed the dismissal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.  On July 31, 2009, the Ninth Circuit dismissed the appeal as moot, citing the repeal of the statute on which all plaintiffs’ claims had been based.


Beginning in May 2008, the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Division, working with the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, conductedPolice Pension Fund filed an inquiry concerning DeVry’s compliance with Title IV regulations relating to recruiter compensation.  DeVry cooperated fully with the inquiry and on October 16, 2008, was advised by the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois that the government had concluded its inquiry and had declined to intervene in a sealed qui tam case which had precipitated the inquiry.  The False Claims Act case, which was unsealed as a result of the government’s action, had been filed in September 2007 by a former DeVry employee, Jennifer S. Shultz,initial complaint (the “Shareholder Case”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Divisionon November 1, 2010 (Case No. 1:10-cv-07031). The initial complaint was filed on behalf of the government.  A firsta putative class of persons who purchased DeVry common stock between October 25, 2007, and August 13, 2010. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint was unsealed(the “First Amended Complaint”) on March 7, 2011 alleging the same categories of claims in the initial complaint. The plaintiffs claimed in the First Amended Complaint that DeVry, Daniel Hamburger and Richard M. Gunst violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by failing to disclose abusive and fraudulent recruiting and financial aid lending practices, thereby increasing DeVry’s student enrollment and revenues and artificially inflating DeVry’s stock price during the class period. On March 27, 2012, Judge John F. Grady dismissed the First Amended Complaint without prejudice, granting Plaintiffs leave to file a second amended complaint by May 4, 2012.

On May 4, 2012, the Plaintiffs again amended their allegations in the Shareholder Case (the “Second Amended Complaint”). The Second Amended Complaint alleges a longer putative class period of October 27, 2007, to August 11, 2011, but narrows the scope of the alleged fraud significantly as compared to the previous two complaints. Plaintiffs now focus exclusively on DeVry’s practices for compensating student Admissions Advisors, alleging DeVry misled the market by failing to disclose that its compensation practices violated federal law and by making affirmative misrepresentations that DeVry complied with compensation regulations. On July 10, 2012, DeVry filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint, which is awaiting Judge Grady’s consideration.

Three derivative cases similar to the Shareholder Case also have been filed (“Derivative Actions”). Two of the Derivative Actions were filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division: DeVry shareholder Timothy Hald filed a derivative complaint on behalf of DeVry on January 3, 2011 (Hald v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 11 CH 0087) and Matthew Green (also a DeVry shareholder) filed a derivative complaint on behalf of DeVry on January 7, 2011 (Green v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 11 CH 0770). TheHaldandGreencases (the “Consolidated Cases”) were consolidated by court order dated December 31, 2008.  The allegationsFebruary 9, 2011. Maria Dotro, another DeVry shareholder, filed a third derivative complaint on DeVry’s behalf in the first amended complaint relateDelaware Court of Chancery on March 11, 2011 (Dotro v. Hamburger et al., Case No. 6263). Both the Consolidated cases and theDotrocase have been stayed by agreement of the parties until certain matters are resolved or clarified with respect to whetherthe disposition of the Shareholder Case.

The Derivative Actions allege that Daniel Hamburger, Richard M. Gunst, David J. Pauldine, Sharon Thomas Parrott, Ronald L. Taylor, Lisa W. Pickrum, Darren R. Huston, David S. Brown, William T. Keevan, Fernando Ruiz, Harold T. Shapiro, Lyle Logan, Connie R. Curran, and Julia McGee breached their fiduciary duties to DeVry by failing to disclose the same allegedly abusive and fraudulent recruiting and financial aid lending practices alleged in the Shareholder Case. The Derivative Actions also allege that DeVry’s officers and directors unjustly enriched themselves and wasted DeVry’s assets by (i) causing DeVry to incur substantial costs in defending the Shareholder Case; (ii) causing DeVry to pay compensation plansand benefits to individuals who breached their fiduciary duties; (iii) causing potential losses from “certain of DeVry’s programs no longer being eligible for admission representatives violatedfederal financial aid;” and (iv) damaging DeVry’s corporate image and goodwill. DeVry and its executives and directors believe the Higher Education Act ("HEA")allegations contained in the Derivative Actions are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously.

Although DeVry believes that the Shareholder Case and the Department of Education ("DOE") regulations prohibiting an institution participating in Title IV programs from providing to any person or entity engaged in any student recruitment or admissions activity any commission, bonus or other incentive payment based directly or indirectly on success in securing enrollments.  A number of similar lawsuits have been filed in recent years against educational institutions that receive Title IV funds.  On January 26, 2009, DeVry filed a motion to dismissDerivative Actions are without merit, the first amended complaint entirely.  On March 4, 2009, the District Court granted DeVry’s motion to dismiss, entering judgment and dismissing the case with prejudice.  On March 16, 2009, Shultz appealed the dismissal to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.  On June 23, 2009, a settlement in principle was reached between DeVry and Ms. Shultz in connection with a court-sponsored mediation process whereby DeVry would stand by its consistently-held position denying any wrong doing and pay $4.9 million to finally resolve the matter, and avoid the cost and distraction of a potentially protracted appeals process.  The settlement is conditioned upon obtaining approval of the Department of Justice and finalizing settlement terms that would release DeVry from other False Claims Act cases based upon the same conduct within the same time period covered by the settlement.  DeVry and Ms. Shultz have submitted the settlement to the United States Department of Justice for its approval.  Should the parties fail to conclude the settlement on the proposed or other terms, the appeal to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals will resume.



The ultimate outcome of pending litigation and other proceedings, reviews, investigations and contingencies is difficult to estimate.predict. At this time, DeVry does not expect that the outcome of any such matter including the litigation described above, will have a material effect on its cash flows, results of operations or financial position.

Intersegment sales are accounted for at amounts comparable to sales to nonaffiliated customers and are eliminated in consolidation. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in “Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”


The segments described above have changed from those previously reported, effective with the beginning of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009.  The acquired business operations of Fanor do not operationally align with any of DeVry’s previously existing businesses due to its foreign operating and regulatory environment. The evaluation of the performance of this business and how resources are to be allocated is distinct from that of the other DeVry businesses.  The decision to realign AAI operations from the former DeVry University segment is based on the expected growth of this business and how decisions on resource allocation are also now distinct from those of the Business, Technology and Management segment operations. Since neither business (Fanor and AAI) is significant enough to be reported as individual segments, they are aggregated in the newly created Other Educational Services segment as allowed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (SFAS 131). As a result of these changes, DeVry has provided in the tables below segment information based upon the current and previous segmentation.

The consistent measure of segment operating income excludes interest income and expense, amortization and certain corporate-related depreciation and expenses. As such, these items are reconciling items in arriving at income before income taxes. The consistent measure of segment assets excludes deferred income tax assets and certain depreciable corporate assets. Additions to long-lived assets have been measured in this same manner. Reconciling items are included as corporate assets.



Following is a tabulation of business segment information based on the current segmentation for each of the years ended June 30, 2009, 20082012, 2011 and 2007.2010. Corporate information is included where it is needed to reconcile segment data to the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2009, DeVry bought out the lease on approximately 40% of the space it occupied at its DeVry University campus in Long Island City, New York.  As a result, DeVry recorded a pre-tax charge of approximately $4.0 million. The charge is composed of a $2.7 million cash outlay and a non-cash charge of $1.3 million related to the write-off of leasehold improvements, net of a deferred rent credit. This loss is included in operating income of the current Business, Technology and Management reportable segment and the previous DeVry University reportable segment.

In September 2007, DeVry executed a sale leaseback transaction for its facilities in Seattle, Washington, and Phoenix, Arizona. In connection with these transactions, DeVry recorded a pre-tax loss of $4.3 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. This loss is included in operating income of the current Business, Technology and Management reportable segment and the previous DeVry University reportable segment.

In September 2007, DeVry exercised the option to purchase its leased facility in Alpharetta, Georgia.  Immediately following the acquisition, DeVry sold the facility to a different party and executed a leaseback on the entire facility.  In connection with this transaction, DeVry accelerated to the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, the recognition of approximately $0.6 million of remaining deferred lease credits associated with the original lease. This income is included in operating income of the current Business, Technology and Management reportable segment and the previous DeVry University reportable segment.

On September 18, 2008, DeVry Inc. acquired the operations of U.S. Education, the parent organization of Apollo College and Western Career College, for $290 million.  Including working capital adjustments and direct costs of acquisition, total consideration paid was approximately $303 million in cash.  The results of U.S. Education’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements of DeVry since that date.

On April 1, 2009, DeVry Inc. acquired the 82.3% of the outstanding stock of Fanor, a leading provider of private postsecondary education in northeastern Brazil for $40.8 million in cash, including costs of acquisition. Funding was provided from DeVry’s existing operating cash balances. The results of Fanor’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements of DeVry since the date of acquisition.

In January 2009, DeVry bought out the lease on approximately 40 percent of the space it occupied at its DeVry University campus in Long Island City, New York.  In the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, DeVry recorded a pre-tax charge of approximately $4.0 million. The charge is composed of a $2.7 million cash outlay and a non-cash charge of $1.3 million related to the write-off of leasehold improvements, net of a deferred rent credit. This loss is separately classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of Total Operating Costs and Expenses and is related to the Business, Technology and Management reportable segment.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2009, DeVry moved its Decatur, Georgia campus to a new leased facility.  The campus was previously located in an owned facility that is currently held as available for sale.  DeVry estimates the fair value of this property less costs to sell to be in excess of its carrying value; therefore, no impairment loss was recognized.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of DeVry Inc.:


In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DeVry Inc. and its subsidiaries at June 30, 20092012 and 2008,2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 20092012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009,2012, based on criteria established inInternal Control - Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company'sCompany’s management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management'sManagement’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.


As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for uncertain tax positions in 2008.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
