Variable Interest Entities |
Variable Interest Entities | NOTE 8—VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Consolidated Variable Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interests In fiscal 2022, we formed eight privately-held limited liability companies (each, a “Member LLC” and collectively, the “Member LLCs” or the “consolidated variable interest entities”) for real estate development activities related to our Gallery transformation and global expansion strategies. We hold a 50 percent membership interest in seven of the Member LLCs, and the remaining noncontrolling interest of 50 percent in each Member LLC is held by a third-party real estate development partner who is also the managing member of the Aspen LLCs (as defined in “Equity Method Investments” below). In one Member LLC we hold approximately 75 percent membership interest with the remaining noncontrolling interest of approximately 25 percent held by the same Aspen LLCs managing member. The Member LLCs are qualitatively determined to be VIEs due to their having insufficient equity investment at risk to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. Upon the formation of each Member LLC we determined that the power to direct the most significant activities of each Member LLC is either controlled by us or shared between the members of the Member LLCs. In the instances where there is shared power among related parties as defined in the consolidation accounting guidance, we evaluated the related-party tiebreaker guidance and determined that we are most closely associated with each Member LLC. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary of the Member LLCs and we consolidate the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Member LLCs in our consolidated financial statements. In fiscal 2022, we recognized compensation expense of $4.5 million related to the equity interests given to the noncontrolling interest holders of the consolidated VIEs, of which $3.6 million is included in additional paid-in capital and $0.9 million is included in other non-current obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. The additional paid-in capital portion relates to equity-classified compensation arrangements and represents the fair-value-based measure of the equity interests upon the noncontrolling interest holders being admitted as a member of the VIEs. The other non-current obligations portion relates to liability-classified compensation arrangements and represents the fair-value-based measure of the equity interests at the end of the reporting period. There are no explicit or implicit vesting conditions associated with these compensation arrangements. We measure the noncontrolling interests in the consolidated variable interest entities using the distribution provisions set out in the operating agreements of each Member LLC. As of January 28, 2023, the noncontrolling interest holders had no claim to the net assets of each Member LLC based upon such distribution provisions. Accordingly, we did not recognize any noncontrolling interests as of and in fiscal 2022. The carrying amounts and classification of the VIEs’ assets and liabilities included in the consolidated balance sheets were as follows: ​

(1) | Restricted cash deposits are held in escrow for one Member LLC and represent a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Promissory Note (defined below) that are required to be used for tenant allowances specified in a lease agreement between us and the Member LLC.
(2) | Includes $125 million of construction in progress, which is included in “building and building improvements” within property and equipment—net.
(3) | Real estate loans are secured by the assets of each respective Member LLC and the associated creditors do not have recourse against RH’s general assets.
On August 3, 2022, a Member LLC as the borrower executed a Secured Promissory Note (the “Secured Promissory Note”) with a third-party in an aggregate principal amount equal to $2.0 million with a maturity date of August 1, 2032. The Secured Promissory Note bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.00%. On September 9, 2022, a Member LLC as the borrower executed a Promissory Note (the “Promissory Note”) with a third-party bank in an aggregate principal amount equal to $16 million with a maturity date of September 9, 2032. The Promissory Note bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 5.37% until September 15, 2027, on which date the interest rate will reset based on the five-year treasury rate plus 2.00%, subject to a total interest rate 3.00% floor. ​ Equity Method Investments Equity method investments represent our membership interests in three privately-held limited liability companies in Aspen, Colorado (each, an “Aspen LLC” and collectively, the “Aspen LLCs” or the “equity method investments”) that were formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing, operating and selling certain real estate projects in Aspen, Colorado. We hold a 50 percent membership interest in two of the Aspen LLCs and a 70 percent membership interest in the third Aspen LLC. The Aspen LLCs are VIEs, however, we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because we do not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Accordingly, we account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. As of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, $3.0 million and $8.4 million, respectively, of promissory notes receivable, inclusive of accrued interest, are outstanding with the managing member or entities affiliated with the managing member for the Aspen LLCs, which promissory notes are included in prepaid expense and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Promissory notes related specifically to the Aspen LLCs are expected to be settled in cash and not converted into additional equity investment in the Aspen LLCs. We have made in excess of $100 million in capital contributions to the Aspen LLCs as contractually required. Our maximum exposure to loss with respect to these equity method investments is the carrying value of the equity method investments as of January 28, 2023. During fiscal 2022, fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, we recorded our proportionate share of equity method investments losses of $2.1 million, $8.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, which is included on the consolidated statements of income with a corresponding decrease to the carrying value of equity method investments on the consolidated balance sheets as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022. We did not receive any distributions or have any undistributed earnings of equity method investments in any fiscal year. In February 2023, subsequent to fiscal 2022, we made equity contributions to two of the Aspen LLCs totaling $31 million whereby such funding was used to repay a portion of third-party debt secured by certain real estate assets held by the Aspen LLCs.
