3.   Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

 

The Company entered into a joint venture with E.A. Juffali & Brothers ("Juffali") on August 7, 2025, based in Bahrain, aiming to expand its footprint in the Middle East region. The joint venture, operating under the name Generac Juffali Generators WLL, will function as a distinct legal entity with ownership interests divided between the Company and Juffali at 51% and 49%, respectively. As the Company holds a controlling financial interest in the joint venture's operating entity, it will consolidate the entity. During the third quarter of 2025, Juffali funded 49% of the total capital contributed to the new legal entity. The issuance date fair value of the 49% noncontrolling interest was $979 and was recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a redeemable noncontrolling interest. This classification is based on Juffali’s right to require redemption of its interest in Generac Juffali Generators under specific triggering circumstances outlined in the joint venture agreement. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is initially recognized at its issuance date fair value and is adjusted each reporting period to reflect the noncontrolling interests’ share of comprehensive income (loss).  If the redeemable noncontrolling interest becomes currently redeemable or is probable of becoming currently redeemable, it is then adjusted to the greater of the redemption value or the carrying value, with any redemption value adjustments being recorded directly to retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

On February 1, 2019, the Company acquired a 51% ownership interest in Captiva Energy Solutions Private Limited (Captiva). The 49% noncontrolling interest in Captiva had an acquisition date fair value of $3,165 and was recorded as a redeemable noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets, as the noncontrolling interest holder had within its control the right to require the Company to redeem its interest in Captiva. The noncontrolling interest holder had a put option to sell his interest to the Company any time after five years from the date of acquisition, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. Further, the Company had a call option that may be redeemed any time after five years from the date of acquisition, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. The put and call option price was based on a multiple of earnings, subject to the terms of the acquisition agreement. In May 2022, the Company purchased an additional 15% ownership interest in Captiva for $375, which was paid with cash on hand, bringing the Company's total ownership interest in Captiva to 66%. On April 5, 2024, the Company acquired the remaining 34% ownership interest in Captiva for $9,117.
