Other Noncurrent liabilities and Redeemable/Noncontrolling Interests

(3) Other Noncurrent liabilities and Redeemable/Noncontrolling Interests

Other noncurrent liabilities include the long-term portion of our professional and general liability, workers’ compensation reserves, pension and deferred compensation liabilities, and liabilities incurred in connection with split-dollar life insurance agreements on the lives of our chief executive officer and his wife.

As of September 30, 2022, outside owners held noncontrolling, minority ownership interests of: (i) approximately 7% in an acute care facility located in Texas; (ii) 49%, 20%, 30%, 20%, 25%, 48% and 26% in seven behavioral health care facilities located in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Washington, Missouri, Iowa and Michigan, respectively, and; (iii) approximately 5% in an acute care facility located in Nevada. The noncontrolling interest and redeemable noncontrolling interest balances of $49 million and $5 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2022, consist primarily of the third-party ownership interests in these hospitals.

In August 2022, we purchased the 20% noncontrolling ownership interest in a hospital majority owned by us, located in Washington D.C. for $51 million.  We now have 100% ownership interest in the hospital.  The noncontrolling interest balance was reclassified to retained earnings as of September 30, 2022 and is included in common stockholders’ equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet and in retained earnings in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity.

In connection with the two behavioral health care facilities located in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the minority ownership interests of which are reflected as redeemable noncontrolling interests on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, the outside owners have “put options” to put their entire ownership interest to us at any time. If exercised, the put option requires us to purchase the minority member’s interest at fair market value. Accordingly, the amounts recorded as redeemable noncontrolling interests on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects the estimated fair market value of these ownership interests.
