As a consequence, the assets and liabilities of both entities are presented on a consolidated basis in BFC’s financial statements. However, the debts and obligations of the consolidated entities are not direct obligations of BFC and are non-recourse to BFC. Similarly, the assets of those entities are not available to BFC absent a dividend or distribution from the entity. The recognition by BFC of income from controlled entities is determined based on the percentage of its economic ownership in BankAtlantic Bancorp and Levitt Corporation, which is 22.1% and 16.6%, respectively, which results in BFC recognizing only 22.1% and 16.6% of BankAtlantic Bancorp’s and Levitt Corporation’s income, respectively.
