(c) During 2014, the Company recognized a cumulative foreign currency translation loss as a result of the substantial liquidation of the Company’s investment in Mexico and Peru. Amounts were reclassified on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income as follows (i) $92.9 million of loss was reclassified to Impairment/loss on operating properties sold, net of tax, within Discontinued operations (ii) $47.3 million of loss was reclassified to Equity in income of joint ventures, net and (iii) $5.8 million of a loss was reclassified to Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. At December 31, 2014, the Company had a net $0.3 million, of unrealized cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment (“CTA”) gains relating to its foreign entity investments in Canada and Chile. The CTA is comprised of $15.2 million of unrealized gains relating to its Canadian investments and $14.9 million of unrealized losses relating to its Chilean investment. CTA results from currency fluctuations between local currency and the U.S. dollar during the period in which the Company held its investment. CTA amounts are subject to future changes resulting from ongoing fluctuations in the respective foreign currency exchange rates. Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to release CTA balances into earnings when the Company has substantially liquidated its investment in a foreign entity. During 2013, the Company began selling properties within its Latin American portfolio and as such, the Company may, in the near term, substantially liquidate its remaining investment in Chile, which will require the then unrealized loss on foreign currency translation to be recognized as a charge against earnings.
