Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

We consolidate variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we are considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, AIR consolidated five and seven VIEs, respectively, including the AIR Operating Partnership.

Redeemable Preferred OP Units

The AIR Operating Partnership has various classes of preferred OP Units. Each class of preferred OP Units is currently redeemable at the holders’ option. The AIR Operating Partnership, at its sole discretion, may settle such redemption requests in cash or cause AIR to issue shares of its Common Stock with a value equal to the redemption price. The preferred OP Units are therefore presented within temporary equity in AIR’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and within temporary partners’ capital in the AIR Operating Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents a rollforward of the AIR Operating Partnership’s preferred OP Units’ redemption value (in thousands):


Balance at January 1, 2023	$	77,143
Preferred distributions	(4,710)
Redemption of preferred units and other	(3)
Net income allocated to preferred units	4,710
Balance at September 30, 2023	$	77,140

The AIR Operating Partnership has outstanding various classes of redeemable preferred OP Units. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the AIR Operating Partnership had 2,846,524 and 2,846,574 redeemable preferred OP Units issued and outstanding, respectively. Distributions per annum range from 1.92% to 8.75% per class and $0.48 to $8.00 per unit, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts included in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
