Variable Interest Entity, Not Primary Beneficiary, Disclosures [Abstract] |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities The Company evaluates its ownership, contractual, and other interests in entities to determine if they are VIEs if it has a variable interest in those entities, and the nature and extent of those interests. These evaluations are highly complex and involve management judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical information, among other factors. Based on its evaluations, if the Company determines it is the primary beneficiary of such VIEs, it consolidates such entities into its financial statements. Consolidated Variable Interest Entities The Company consolidates a VIE when it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE and, as a result, is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. It consolidates certain single-lessee leasing entities where it, as the lessee, has the majority risk of the leased assets due to its minimum lease payment obligations to these leasing entities. As a result of absorbing this risk, the leases provide the Company with the power to direct the operations of the leased properties and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity. Consolidated VIEs do not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows. Total assets and liabilities included in its Consolidated Balance Sheets for these VIEs were $660 million and $65 million, respectively, at March 31, 2022, and $662 million and $74 million, respectively, at March 31, 2021. Investments in Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities The Company is involved with VIEs which it does not consolidate because it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance and thus is not considered the primary beneficiary of the entities. Its relationships include equity method investments and lending, leasing, contractual, or other relationships with the VIEs. The Company’s most significant VIE relationships are with oncology and other specialty practices. Under these practice arrangements, the Company generally owns or leases all of the real estate and equipment used by the practices and manages the practices’ administrative functions. Prior to the divestment of the Austrian businesses in 2022, the Company had relationships with certain pharmacies in Europe with whom it provided financing, had equity ownership, and/or had a supply agreement whereby it supplied the vast majority of the pharmacies’ purchases. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss (regardless of probability) as a result of all unconsolidated VIEs was $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion at March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which primarily represents the value of intangible assets related to service agreements, equity investments, and lease and loan receivables. This amount excludes the customer loan guarantees discussed in Financial Note 17, “Financial Guarantees and Warranties.” The Company believes there is no material loss exposure on these assets or from these relationships.
