Variable Interest Entities

The Company consolidates certain VIEs in which it is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary. The consolidated VIEs are general partner entities of the Partnerships, which are not wholly owned by the Company. The total assets of the consolidated VIEs are $13,597 and $14,704 as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively, and are recorded in Investments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The consolidated VIEs had no liabilities as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 other than deferred incentive fee revenue of $3,704 and $6,245 as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively. The assets of the consolidated VIEs may only be used to settle obligations of the consolidated VIEs, if any. In addition, there is no recourse to the Company for the consolidated VIEs’ liabilities, except for certain entities in which there could be a claw back of previously distributed carried interest.

The Company holds variable interests in certain Partnerships that are VIEs, which are not consolidated, as it is determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary based upon the Company’s equity interest percentage in each of the VIEs. Certain Partnerships are considered VIEs because limited partners lack the ability to remove the general partner or dissolve the entity without cause, by simple majority vote (i.e. do not have substantive “kick out” or “liquidation” rights). The Company’s involvement with such entities is in the form of direct equity interests in, and fee arrangements with, the Partnerships in which it also serves as the general partner or managing member. In the Company’s role as general partner or managing member, it generally considers itself the sponsor of the applicable Partnership and makes all investment and operating decisions. As of June 30, 2018, the total commitments and remaining unfunded commitments from the limited partners and general partners to the unconsolidated VIEs are $14,454,389 and $5,458,926, respectively. These commitments are the primary source of financing for the unconsolidated VIEs.

The maximum exposure to loss represents the potential loss of assets recognized by the Company relating to these unconsolidated entities. The Company believes that its maximum exposure to loss is limited because it establishes separate limited partnerships or limited liability companies to serve as the general partner or managing member of the Partnerships.
