CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated loss in statement of operations

Included within the Company’s net loss from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are the activities of real estate entities that were determined to be VIEs. These entities have been established to own and operate real estate property and were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entities to finance their activities without additional financial support. The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as a result of the Company’s majority voting rights and complete operational control of these entities.

Prior to April 30, 2019, the Company evaluated Investors X and determined that the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support and the Company was the primary beneficiary of the VIE as a result of its complete operational control of the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance and its obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits. As a result of the April 30, 2019 Master Transfer Agreement (“MTA”) entered into between the Company and CDS, the Company determined that Investors X was considered held for sale effective April 30, 2019 and Investors X activities were reclassified to discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
