Variable Interest Entities | 6. Variable Interest Entities Unconsolidated VIEs As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, 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 December 31, 2025 and 2024, the net carrying amounts of our investment in these entities were $79.0 million and $82.0 million, which were included in "Investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures" in our consolidated balance sheets. Our equity in the income of unconsolidated VIEs was included in "Loss from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our consolidated statements of operations. Our maximum loss exposure in these entities is limited to our investments, construction commitments and debt guarantees. See Note 21 for additional information. Consolidated VIEs JBG SMITH LP is our most significant consolidated VIE. We hold 82.0% 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 of our consolidated assets and liabilities.
