- Diluted earnings per share was $0.62, compared to $0.81 in the prior year; diluted earnings per share excluding special items was $0.70, compared to $0.71 in the prior year

Academic and Operating Highlights
In the quarter, DeVry Group realigned its reporting segments to reflect its current strategy.
Medical and Healthcare Segment
For the third quarter, segment revenue of $208.2 million decreased 1.0 percent compared to the prior year, with growth at Chamberlain University more than offset by decreased revenue at the medical and veterinary schools. Chamberlain revenue increased 2.4 percent to $124.9 million, while revenue for the medical and veterinary schools decreased 5.7 percent to $83.2 million.
Third quarter operating income for the segment, excluding special items, was $50.8 million, representing a decrease of 11.5 percent from the prior year.
Building on the strength of its brand and reputation, Chamberlain has broadened its reach in healthcare education through the establishment of Chamberlain University and the launch of a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree program within its new College of Health Professions. The Master of Public Health degree program enhances Chamberlain’s continued focus on providing health and wellness education, improving healthcare policy through interdisciplinary collaboration and making health a shared value across communities.
During the fiscal third quarter, Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (Ross) was awarded a grant by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study mosquito-transmitted arboviruses such as chikungunya, dengue and Zika, which have emerged as global public health threats. Ross will study these viruses in an effort to advance the understanding of how they may be transmitted between animals and humans. Led by Ross, the research is a collaborative effort with investigators at Kansas State University and the University of Georgia. It is the first NIH grant awarded to a research team at Ross.
Professional Education
Third quarter segment revenue increased 25.9 percent to $29.8 million compared to the prior year, driven by the Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS) acquisition. Segment operating income for the third quarter was $2.6 million, down from $5.9 million from the prior year, driven by a decline in revenue in Becker’s CPA review program and ACAMS revenue seasonality.
Becker has continued to focus on growing global revenue through its continuing education programs and through ACAMS.
Technology and Business
Third quarter segment revenue increased 28.6 percent to $61.8 million compared to the prior year. On a constant currency basis, revenue in the segment grew 5.3 percent driven in part by recent acquisitions. Segment operating income in the third quarter was $5.4 million, up from a loss of $1.6 million in the prior year.
DeVry Education of Brazil (DVE) introduced several programs during the quarter such as a new architectural program at Ibmec and a Master’s of Education degree program at Damásio. DVE is focused on leveraging its curriculum and its brands to attract new students.
DeVry Education of Brazil launched a new Ibmec campus in São Paulo during the third quarter, which is intended to expand the institution’s access to a broader student population in the primary economic center of the country.
US Traditional Postsecondary
In the third quarter, segment revenue decreased 20.8 percent to $153.0 million. Revenue at DeVry University decreased 23.7 percent to $119.4 million during the third quarter, compared to the prior year. Third quarter revenue at Carrington declined 8.3 percent to $33.5 million compared to the prior year.
The segment recorded breakeven operating income for the quarter, compared to $1.7 million in the prior year, excluding special items.
DeVry University achieved $32.9 million of cost savings in the third quarter compared to prior year, excluding special items. Additional cost reductions are expected in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 to maintain positive segment economics.
DeVry Group Outlook
Fourth quarter revenue is expected to be down 3 to 4 percent versus the prior year. Fourth quarter operating costs before special items are expected to decrease 4 to 5 percent versus the prior year.
For the full year, revenue is expected to be down 1 to 2 percent compared to the prior year and earnings before special items are expected to grow in the mid-teens range as compared to the prior year. Full year capital spending is expected to be in the $55-60 million range. The effective income tax rate for the fiscal year is expected to be in the range of 20 to 21 percent, before special items.

During the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2016, DeVry Group recorded special items related to the following: (i) Restructuring charges related to workforce reductions and real estate consolidations at DeVry University and real estate consolidations at Carrington in order to align its cost structure with enrollments; (ii) An asset impairment charge related to the write-down of Carrington's intangible assets and goodwill; (iii) A charge related to an asset fair value write-down at Becker Professional Education which is part of the Professional Education segment; and (iv) A gain on the sale of the DeVry University, Fremont, California campus and student housing facilities. The following tables illustrate the effects of the special items on DeVry Group’s operating income and net income. Management believes that the non-GAAP disclosure of operating income and net income excluding these special items provides investors with useful supplemental information regarding the underlying business trends and performance of DeVry Group’s ongoing operations and is useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations given the special nature of the restructuring charges, regulatory settlements, loss on assets held for sale, an asset impairment charge and gain on sale of assets. DeVry Group uses these supplemental financial measures internally in its management and budgeting process. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, DeVry Group’s reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP information (in thousands):
