Temporary Equity Disclosure [Abstract]  
REDEEMABLE LIMITED PARTNERS' CAPITAL
(11) REDEEMABLE LIMITED PARTNERS' CAPITAL
Redeemable limited partners' capital represents the member owners' 41% ownership of Premier LP through their ownership of Class B common units at June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the member owners held the majority of the votes of the Board of Directors and any redemption or transfer or choice of consideration cannot be assumed to be within the control of the Company. Therefore, redeemable limited partners' capital is recorded at the greater of the book value or redemption amount per the LP Agreement (see Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation for more information), and is calculated as the fair value of all Class B common units as if immediately exchangeable into Class A common shares. For the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded adjustments to the fair value of redeemable limited partners' capital as an adjustment of redeemable limited partners' capital to redemption amount in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income in the amounts of $468.3 million, $(118.1) million and $157.6 million, respectively.
Redeemable limited partners' capital is classified as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as, pursuant to the LP Agreement, withdrawal is at the option of each member owner and the conditions of the repurchase are not solely within the Company's control. As of July 31, 2020, the limited partner's redemption feature was under the control of the Company and as a result, the fair value of redeemable limited partners' capital at July 31, 2020 will be reclassified from temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets to additional paid in capital as a component of permanent equity. See Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation under "Company Structure" and Note 21 - Subsequent Events for further information.
The table below provides a summary of the changes in the redeemable limited partners' capital from June 30, 2017 to June 30, 2020 (in thousands):

Receivables from limited partners represent amounts due from limited partners for their required capital in Premier LP. These receivables are interest bearing notes that were issued to new limited partners. These receivables are reflected as a reduction to redeemable limited partners' capital so that amounts due from limited partners for capital are not reflected as redeemable limited partnership capital until paid. No interest bearing notes receivable were executed by limited partners of Premier LP during the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018.
During the year ended June 30, 2020, three limited partners withdrew from Premier LP. The limited partnership agreement provides for the redemption of former limited partner's Class B common units that are not eligible for exchange in the form of a five-year, unsecured, non-interest bearing term promissory note, a cash payment equal to the present value of the redemption amount, or other mutually agreed upon terms. Partnership interest obligations to former limited partners are reflected in notes payable in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Under the Exchange Agreement, Class B common units that are eligible for exchange by withdrawing limited partners must be exchanged in the subsequent quarter's exchange process.
Premier LP's distribution policy requires cash distributions as long as taxable income is generated and cash is available to distribute on a quarterly basis prior to the 60th day after the end of each calendar quarter. The Company makes quarterly distributions to its limited partners in the form of a legal partnership income distribution governed by the terms of the LP Agreement. These partner distributions are based on the limited partner's ownership in Premier LP and relative participation across Premier service offerings. While these distributions are based on relative participation across Premier service offerings, they are not based directly on revenue generated from an individual partner's participation as the distributions are based on the net income (loss) of the partnership which encompasses the operating expenses of the partnership as well as participation by non-owner members in Premier's service offerings. To the extent Premier LP incurred a net loss, the limited partners would not receive a quarterly distribution. As provided
in the LP Agreement, the amount of actual cash distributed may be reduced by the amount of such distributions used by limited partners to offset loans or other amounts payable to the Company.
Quarterly distributions made to limited partners during the current fiscal year are as follows (in thousands):

(a)
Distributions are equal to Premier LP's total taxable income from the preceding fiscal quarter-to-date period for each respective distribution date multiplied by the Company's standalone effective combined federal, state and local income tax rate for each respective distribution date. Premier LP expects to make a $8.0 million quarterly distribution on August 28, 2020. The distribution is reflected in limited partners' distribution payable in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2020.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (see Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation for more information), each limited partner has the cumulative right to exchange up to one-seventh of its initial allocation of Class B common units for shares of Class A common stock, cash or a combination of both, the form of consideration to be at the discretion of the Company's independent Audit and Compliance Committee of the Board of Directors. During the year ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded total reductions of $460.6 million to redeemable limited partners' capital to reflect the exchange of approximately 13.6 million Class B common units and surrender of associated shares of Class B common stock by member owners for a like number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock (see Note 13 - Earnings (Loss) Per Share for more information). Quarterly exchanges during the current fiscal year were as follows (in thousands, except Class B common units):
