Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2015

In connection with the acquisition of the Company's 49.9% interest in New Video, the terms of the agreement provide BBCWA with a right to put all of its 50.1% noncontrolling interest to the Company at the greater of the then fair value or the fair value of the initial equity interest at inception. The put option is exercisable on the fifteenth and twenty-fifth year anniversaries of the agreement.

Additionally, in connection with the creation of a joint venture entity in 2013, the terms of the agreement provide the noncontrolling member with a right to put all of its interest to the Company at the then fair value.

Because exercise of these put rights is outside of the Company's control, the noncontrolling interest in each entity is presented as redeemable noncontrolling interest outside of stockholders' deficiency on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet. The activity reflected within redeemable noncontrolling interest for the three months ended March 31, 2015 is presented below.
