VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES [Abstract]

NOTE 7 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

A variable interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) is an investment or other interest that will absorb portions of the VIE’s expected losses and/or receive portions of the VIE’s expected residual returns. Our variable interests in VIEs include limited partnership interests. VIEs sometimes finance the purchase of assets by issuing limited partnership interests that are either collateralized by or indexed to the assets held by the VIE.

The enterprise with a controlling financial interest in a VIE is known as the primary beneficiary and consolidates the VIE. We determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE by performing an analysis that principally considers: (a) which variable interest holder has the power to direct activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; (b) which variable interest holder has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE; (c) the VIE’s purpose and design, including the risks the VIE was designed to create and pass through to its variable interest holders; (d) the VIE’s capital structure; (e) the terms between the VIE and its variable interest holders and other parties involved with the VIE; and (f) related-party relationships. We reassess our evaluation of whether an entity is a VIE when certain reconsideration events occur. We reassess our determination of whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis based on current facts and circumstances.

Nonconsolidated VIEs

As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, two and four of our unconsolidated VIEs, respectively, include interests in limited partnerships and limited liability companies. We have determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these entities because the managing partner or member of each of these entities has the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance. Accordingly, these VIEs have not been consolidated with us, and they have been reported as investments at fair value in the June 30, 2024 and 2023, consolidated balance sheets.

The table below presents a summary of the nonconsolidated VIEs in which we hold variable interests:

Total Nonconsolidated VIEs	As of June 30, 2024		As of June 30, 2023
Fair value of investments in VIEs	$	796,940	$	6,043,996
Carrying value of variable interests - assets	$	867,358	$	8,037,475
Maximum Exposure to Loss:
Limited Partnership Interest	$	867,358	$	8,037,475

Our exposure to the obligations of VIEs is generally limited to the carrying value of the limited partnership interests in these entities.
