Variable Interest Entities |
Variable Interest Entities | 5.Variable Interest Entities We hold various interests in entities deemed to be VIEs, which we evaluate at acquisition, formation, after a change in the ownership agreement, after a change in the entity's economics or after any other reconsideration event to determine if the VIE should be consolidated in our financial statements or should no longer be considered a VIE. An entity is a VIE because it is in the development stage and/or does not hold sufficient equity at risk, or conducts substantially all its operations on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. We will consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, which entails having the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Certain criteria we assess in determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE include our influence over significant business activities, our voting rights and any noncontrolling interest kick-out or participating rights. Unconsolidated VIEs As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had interests in entities deemed to be VIEs. Although we may be responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of these investees, we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs, as we do not hold unilateral power over activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the respective VIE's economic performance. We account for our investment in these entities under the equity method. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the net carrying amounts of our investment in these entities were $88.4 million and $87.3 million, which were included in "Investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures" in our balance sheets. Our equity in the income of unconsolidated VIEs was included in "Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our statements of operations. Our maximum loss exposure in these entities is limited to our investments, construction commitments and debt guarantees. See Note 17 for additional information. Consolidated VIEs JBG SMITH LP is our most significant consolidated VIE. We hold 86.4% of the limited partnership interest in JBG SMITH LP, act as the general partner and exercise full responsibility, discretion and control over its day-to-day management. The noncontrolling interests of JBG SMITH LP do not have substantive liquidation rights, substantive kick-out rights without cause or substantive participating rights that could be exercised by a simple majority of noncontrolling interest limited partners (including by such a limited partner unilaterally). Because the noncontrolling interest holders do not have these rights, JBG SMITH LP is a VIE. As general partner, we have the power to direct the activities of JBG SMITH LP that most significantly affect its economic performance, and through our majority interest, we have both the right to receive benefits from and the obligation to absorb losses of JBG SMITH LP. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary of JBG SMITH LP and consolidate it in our financial statements. Because we conduct our business through JBG SMITH LP, its total assets and liabilities comprise substantially all our consolidated assets and liabilities. In March 2021, we leased the land underlying 1900 Crystal Drive located in National Landing to a lessee, which constructed an 808-unit multifamily asset comprising two towers, The Grace and Reva, with ground floor retail. The ground lessee engaged us to be the development manager for the construction of 1900 Crystal Drive, and separately, we were the lessee in a master lease of the asset. We determined that 1900 Crystal Drive was a VIE and that we were the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, we consolidated the VIE with the lessee's ownership interest shown as "Noncontrolling interests" in our consolidated balance sheet. In June 2024, we acquired the ground lessee's interest in 1900 Crystal Drive for $26.6 million of which $4.7 million was a reduction of "Noncontrolling interests" in our balance sheet. As a result of the transaction, 1900 Crystal Drive is no longer a VIE. As of June 30, 2024, excluding JBG SMITH LP, we consolidated one VIE (2000/2001 South Bell Street) with total assets of $256.1 million and liabilities of $157.9 million, and as of December 31, 2023, excluding JBG SMITH LP, we consolidated two VIEs (1900 Crystal Drive and 2000/2001 South Bell Street) with total assets of $503.2 million and liabilities of $293.3 million. VIE assets primarily consisted of construction in progress and VIE liabilities primarily consisted of mortgage loans. The assets of the VIEs can only be used to settle the obligations of the VIEs, and the liabilities include third-party liabilities of the VIEs for which the creditors or beneficial interest holders do not have recourse against us.
