INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE	7. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE CoreCivic has a 50% ownership interest in APM, an entity holding the management contract for a correctional facility, HM Prison Forest Bank, under a 25-year prison management contract with an agency of the United Kingdom government. CoreCivic has determined that its joint venture investment in APM represents a variable interest entity ("VIE") in accordance with ASC 810, "Consolidation" of which CoreCivic is not the primary beneficiary. The Forest Bank facility, located in Salford, England, which was sold in April 2001, was previously constructed and owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary of CoreCivic. All gains and losses under the joint venture are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. During 2000, CoreCivic extended a working capital loan to APM, which has an outstanding balance of $2.7 million as of December 31, 2022. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, equity in losses of the joint venture was $124,000, $138,000, and $192,000, respectively. The equity in losses of the joint venture is included in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the equity in the net deficit of APM was $0.1 million and is applied as a reduction in the carrying value of the outstanding working capital loan of $2.7 million, which is reported in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and represents CoreCivic's maximum exposure to loss in connection with APM. CoreCivic determined that its January 2020 joint venture investment in GRES also represented a VIE. CoreCivic had 100% voting control in GRES. Accordingly, CoreCivic concluded that it was the primary beneficiary of GRES and consolidated the VIE. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. During June 2021, CoreCivic provided notice to the partners of GRES of its intent to distribute the remaining assets and terminate the partnership. The Company terminated the partnership in September 2021 and cancelled the Operating Partnership Units for no consideration. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company reported an increase to stockholders' equity of $17.4 million resulting from the termination of the partnership.
