Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as outlined in the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification" or "ASC"), and are presented in our reporting and functional currency, the U.S. dollar. The Codification is the single source of authoritative accounting principles applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company (including all wholly-owned subsidiaries), as well as all other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Significant investments in businesses, partnerships, and limited liability companies in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to: (i) asset impairments, including intangible assets and liabilities, and goodwill, (ii) purchase price allocations with respect to commercial real estate asset acquisitions, (iii) the determination of the term and fair value of sales-type leases, (iv) litigation and contingencies, (v) postretirement benefits, (vi) recoverable amounts of accounts and other receivables, (vii) valuation of derivatives and their effectiveness as hedges, (viii) income taxes, and (ix) valuation of market-based and performance-based restricted stock units. Future results could be materially affected if actual results differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Rounding
Rounding: Amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes are rounded to the nearest thousand. Accordingly, a recalculation of some per-share amounts and percentages, if based on the reported data, may result in differences.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued Operations: In November 2023, the Company completed the sale of its interests in Grace Pacific LLC ("Grace Pacific"), a materials and construction company, Company-owned quarry land on Maui, and Grace Pacific's 50% interest in a paving company (collectively, the “Grace Disposal Group”). The financial results associated with the Grace Disposal Group are classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Refer to Note 21 – Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations for additional information. All footnotes exclude discontinued operations unless otherwise noted.
Discontinued Operations: The Company reports disposal groups as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations when the criteria are met. The Company's loss from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 primarily relates to the resolution of cessation related claim liabilities associated with the Company's former sugar operations. The Company’s loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2023, included net loss on disposition, revenues, and expenses associated with the Grace Disposal Group, in addition to expenses associated with the resolution of liabilities from the Company’s former sugar operations. The results of operations are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.
Reclassifications
Reclassifications: Certain amounts presented in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation (e.g., captions previously presented in the prior years that, in the currently presented periods, are less than five percent of total assets or total liabilities were combined in the current year consolidated balance sheets). Operating lease right-of-use assets, Straight-line rent receivable, and Investments in other joint ventures and partnerships, which were previously presented in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, are now presented separately for all periods presented. Operating lease liabilities, Accrued dividends, and Real estate intangible liabilities, net, which were previously presented in Accrued and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, are now presented separately for all periods presented.
Segment Reclassifications
Segment Reclassifications: The Company continually monitors its reportable segments for changes in facts and circumstances to determine whether changes in the identification or aggregation of operating segments are necessary. Refer to Note 19 – Segment Information for additional information.
Real estate property, net
Real estate property, net: Real estate property, net primarily represents long-lived physical assets associated with the CRE segment's leasing activity (e.g., improved property leases and ground leases); it also includes landholdings and related assets in the Land Operations segment that the Company holds for either possible future development or future monetization as part of its simplification strategy. The balance primarily consists of land, buildings, and improvements and is recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation.
Expenditures for additions, improvements, and other enhancements to real estate properties are capitalized, and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs that do not improve or extend asset lives are charged to expense as incurred. When assets related to real estate properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation is removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations for the respective period.
Certain costs are capitalized related to the development and redevelopment of real estate properties, including pre-construction costs; real estate taxes; insurance; construction costs; attributable interest expense; and salaries and related costs of personnel directly involved. Additionally, the Company makes estimates as to the probability of certain development and redevelopment projects being completed. If the Company determines the development or redevelopment is no longer probable of completion, the Company expenses all capitalized costs which are not recoverable. Cash flows related to capitalized costs are classified as investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Acquisitions of real estate properties
Acquisitions of real estate properties: Acquisitions of real estate properties are evaluated to determine if they should be accounted for as asset acquisitions or business combinations (acquisitions of real estate properties are generally considered asset
acquisitions). Under asset acquisition accounting, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets (e.g., land, buildings, and tenant improvements), identifiable intangible assets (e.g., in-place leases and favorable leases) and liabilities (e.g., unfavorable leases and assumed debt) based on an evaluation of available information at the date of the acquisition. Based on these estimates, the purchase consideration is allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Transaction costs incurred during the acquisition process are capitalized as a component of the purchase consideration. Upon the closing of a business combination, after identifying all tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, the excess consideration paid over the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired and assumed, respectively, represents goodwill and transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities and uses various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections using appropriate discount and capitalization rates, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and other available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.
Values for favorable leases acquired and unfavorable leases assumed are estimated based on the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with leases acquired) of the difference between: (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the leases negotiated and in-place at the time of acquisition and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the property or an equivalent property, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for favorable leases and the initial term plus the estimated term of any below-market, fixed-rate renewal options for unfavorable leases. The assets recognized and liabilities assumed are amortized to revenue over the related lease term plus renewal options the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise, as appropriate.
The purchase price is further allocated to in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of the acquired lease portfolio and the Company's overall relationship with the anchor tenants. Such amounts are amortized to expense over the remaining lease term.
Investments in sales-type leases, net: Investments in sales-type leases are recognized when the Company’s leases qualify as sales-type leases under ASC Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). Leases qualify as sales-type leases if the contract includes either transfer of ownership clauses, certain purchase options, a lease term representing a major part of the economic life of the asset, or the present value of the lease payments and residual guarantees provided by the lessee exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the asset. The net investment in sales-type leases is initially measured at the present value of the fixed and determinable lease payments, including any guaranteed or unguaranteed residual value of the asset at the end of the lease, discounted at the rate implicit in the lease. Acquisition-related costs are capitalized and recorded in Investments in sales-type leases, net on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. For newly originated or acquired leases, the Company’s estimate of residual value equals the fair value of the asset at lease commencement. The investment in a sales-type lease balance is increased every period to reflect income on the net investment in the lease and reduced by the amount of lease payments collected during the period.
Real estate developments
Real estate developments: Real estate developments represent certain costs capitalized and presented in the Land Operations segment that relate to (i) active real estate development projects and other land intended for sale or (ii) potential future real estate development projects intended for lease that would be part of future CRE segment operations. For potential future real estate development projects intended for lease, when management with the relevant authority has approved expenditures for activities clearly associated with the development and construction of a CRE segment project, the capitalized costs associated with such project (e.g., historical cost of land and any land improvement) will be included in Real estate property, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and transferred to the CRE segment.
Certain costs capitalized relating to active real estate development projects intended for sale may include pre-construction costs (e.g., costs related to land acquisition); construction costs (e.g., grading, roads, water and sewage systems, landscaping and project amenities); direct overhead costs (e.g., insurance and real estate taxes); capitalized interest; and salaries and related costs of personnel directly involved.
For development projects, capitalized costs are allocated using the direct method for expenditures that are specifically associated with the unit being sold and the relative-sales-value method for expenditures that benefit the entire project. Direct overhead costs incurred after the development project is substantially complete and ready to be marketed are charged to expense as incurred. All indirect overhead costs are charged to expense as incurred.
Cash flows related to active real estate development projects and other land intended for sale are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Capitalized Interest
Capitalized Interest: Interest costs on developments, major redevelopments, and other projects that meet certain criteria are capitalized as part of real estate development and redevelopment projects that have not yet been placed into service. Capitalization of interest commences when development activities and expenditures begin and end when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use or ready to be marketed.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of property are as follows:
ClassificationRange of Life (in years)
Building and improvements
10 to 40
Leasehold improvementsLesser of useful life or lease term
Water, power and sewer systems
5 to 50
Machinery and equipment
2 to 35
Other property improvements
3 to 35
In the event a lease or leases with a tenant have been, or are expected to be, terminated early, the Company evaluates the remaining useful lives of any associated depreciable or amortizable assets or liabilities related to the lease terminated (i.e., tenant improvements, above and below market lease intangibles, in-place lease value and leasing commissions). Based upon consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding the termination, the Company may accelerate the depreciation and amortization of such associated assets and liabilities.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities Intangible Assets and Liabilities: Real estate intangible assets and real estate intangible liabilities are included in Real estate intangible assets, net and Real estate intangible liabilities, net, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are generally related to the acquisition of commercial real estate properties.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. The Company carries these investments at cost, which approximates fair value.
Restricted Cash
Restricted Cash: The Company's restricted cash is related to cash held in trust for a self-funded workers compensation policy.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Allowance for Credit Losses: The Company estimates its allowance for credit losses for financial assets, primarily accounts receivable and notes receivable, which are included in accounts receivable and other receivables on the consolidated balance sheets, as well as its non-financial assets, including net investment in sales-type leases, within the scope of ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"). The allowance for credit losses are deducted from the respective financial asset's amortized cost basis on the consolidated balance sheets.
The general allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the general allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. The Company develops expected credit loss estimates for an asset or pool of assets by factoring historical loss information; information on both current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions that may not be reflected in historical loss information; and other relevant credit quality information for the respective assets.
For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the provision for credit losses. In accordance with the practical expedient approach, the provision for credit loss is the difference between the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, and the carrying value of the respective loan. The fair value of the underlying collateral is determined by using methods such as discounted cash flow, the market approach, or direct capitalization approach. The key unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value of the underlying collateral may vary depending on the information available and market conditions as of the valuation date. If any portion of a loan balance is deemed uncollectible, that amount is written-off.
Financing receivables are placed on nonaccrual status when management determines that the collectibility of contractual amounts is not reasonably assured. When a financing receivable is designated as nonaccrual, interest is only recognized as income when payment has been received. Generally, the Company returns a financing receivable to accrual status when all delinquent payments become current under the terms of the applicable agreement and collectibility of the remaining contractual payments is reasonably assured.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Other receivables, net
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Allowances for doubtful accounts are established by management based on estimates of collectability. Estimates of collectability are principally based on an evaluation of the current financial condition of the Company’s customers and their payment history, which are regularly monitored by the Company.
Other receivables, net: Other receivables, net are primarily composed of notes receivable recorded at cost less allowance for credit losses.
Goodwill
Goodwill: The Company reviews goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate potential impairment. The first step in testing goodwill for impairment is to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if events or circumstances have occurred that indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of the assets of the reporting unit, including goodwill, are less than their carrying values. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than the carrying amount, then a quantitative goodwill impairment test is not performed. If the qualitative assessment does not indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than the carrying amount, then a quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including the associated goodwill.
The fair value of a reporting unit is estimated using an income approach that is based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow approach relies on a number of assumptions, including future macroeconomic conditions, market factors specific to the reporting unit, the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows to be generated by the business over an extended period of time and a discount rate that considers the risks related to the amount and timing of the cash flows, among others. The Company classifies these fair value measurements as Level 3. If the results of the Company's test indicates that a reporting unit's estimated fair value is less than its carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Held and Used and Finite-Lived Intangible Assets
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale: Assets and liabilities to be disposed of by sale ("disposal groups") are reclassified as held for sale when all the held for sale criteria have been met and are included in Assets held for sale and Accrued and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, respectively. Generally, disposal groups are classified as held for sale when they are under contract for sale and the applicable due diligence period has expired prior to the end of the reporting period. Disposal groups are measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell and are not depreciated or amortized. The fair value of a disposal group, less any costs to sell, is assessed each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and any remeasurement to the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell is reported as an adjustment to the carrying value.
Assets and liabilities associated with two CRE properties were reclassified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025.Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Held and Used and Finite-Lived Intangible Assets: Long-lived assets held and used, including finite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for possible impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In such an evaluation, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset are compared with the amount recorded for the asset to determine if its carrying value is not recoverable. If this review determines that the recorded value will not be recovered, the amount recorded for the asset is reduced to estimated fair value. In evaluating the fair value of long-lived asset groups, significant estimates and considerable judgments are involved. These long-lived asset impairment analyses are highly subjective because they require management to make assumptions and apply considerable judgments to, among other things, estimates of the timing and amount of future cash flows, the cash flow projection period, uncertainty about future events, including changes in economic conditions, changes in operating performance, changes in the use of the assets and ongoing costs of maintenance and improvements of the assets, appropriate discount rates based on the perceived risks, and thus, the accounting estimates may change from period to period.
Self-Insured Liabilities
Self-Insured Liabilities: The Company is self-insured for certain losses that include, but are not limited to, workers’ compensation, general liability, real and personal property, and real estate construction warranty and defect claims. When feasible, the Company obtains third-party insurance coverage to limit its exposure to these claims. When estimating its self-insured liabilities, the Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims experience, demographic factors, and valuations provided by independent third-parties.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements: ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), as amended, establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The hierarchy places the highest priority on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and assigns the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of inputs within the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
If the technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy, the lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy.
Revenue Recognition and Leases
Revenue Recognition and Leases - The Company as a Lessor: Sources of revenue for the Company primarily include leasing of commercial real asset assets and sales of real estate development and unimproved land. The Company generates revenue from its two distinct segments:
Commercial Real Estate: The Commercial Real Estate segment owns, operates, leases, and manages a portfolio of retail, industrial, and office properties in Hawai‘i; it also leases urban land in Hawai‘i to third-party lessees. Commercial Real Estate revenue is recognized under lease accounting guidance with the Company as lessor.
Leases - The Company as Lessor
The Company reviews its contracts to determine if they qualify as a lease. A contract is determined to be a lease when the right to substantially all of the economic benefits and to direct the use of an identified asset is transferred to a customer over a defined period of time for consideration. During this review, the Company evaluates among other items, asset specification, substitution rights, purchase options, operating rights and control over the asset during the contract period.
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components for all classes of underlying assets where the component follows the same timing and pattern as the lease component and the lease component is classified as an operating lease. Non-lease components included in rental revenue primarily consist of tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance and other services paid for by the lessor and utilized by the lessee. Under the practical expedient, the Company accounts for the single, combined component under leasing guidance as the lease component is the predominant component in the contract.
Rental revenue is primarily derived from operating leases and, therefore, is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Fixed contractual payments from the Company's leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Straight-line rental revenue commences when the customer assumes control of the leased premises. The accrued straight-line receivable represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with lease agreements. Certain of the Company's lease agreements include terms for contingent rental revenue (e.g., percentage rents based on tenant sales volume) and tenant reimbursed property operating costs, which are both accounted for as variable payments.
For sales-type leases, the Company records any selling profit of loss arising from the lease at inception within Gain (loss) on disposal of commercial real estate properties in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, as well as any initial direct costs recorded as an expense if, at commencement, the fair value of the underlying asset differs from its carrying amount, otherwise they are deferred and included in the net investment in the lease. Interest income from sales-type leases is measured using the rate implicit in the lease and is recorded in Operating Revenue - Commercial Real Estate in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations over the lease term to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the Company’s net investment in the lease. Rent payments that are not fixed and determinable at lease inception, such as tenant reimbursed property operating costs, are not included in the effective interest method calculation and are accounted for as variable payments in the period earned.
Certain of the Company's leases include termination and/or extension options. Termination options allow the customer to terminate the lease prior to the end of the lease term under specific circumstances. The Company's extension options, which are exercised at the lessee's discretion, contain rent at fixed rates or require a re-negotiation at market rates. Initial direct costs, primarily commissions, related to the leasing of properties are capitalized on the balance sheet and amortized over the lease term. All other costs to negotiate or arrange a lease are expensed as incurred.
Accounts receivable related to leases are regularly evaluated for collectability, considering factors including, but not limited to, the credit quality of the customer, historical trends of the customer, and changes in customer payment terms. Upon determination that the collectability of a customer receivable is not probable, the Company will reverse the receivable and any
accrued straight-line receivable and record a corresponding reduction of revenue previously recognized. Subsequent revenue is recorded on a cash basis until collectability on related billings becomes probable. Upon determination that portions of a tenant's receivables are not probable of collection (e.g., due to current conditions impacting specific amounts), the Company will record an allowance for doubtful accounts for the recorded operating lease receivable and record a corresponding adjustment of revenue previously recognized.
Land Operations
Land Operations: Revenues from the Land Operations segment are principally derived from real estate development and unimproved land sales. Revenues from real estate sales are recognized at the point in time when control of the underlying goods is transferred to the customer and the payment is due (generally on the closing date).
On a consolidated basis, in addition to disclosing amounts recorded as contract assets or contract liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets, the Company discloses information about the amount of contract consideration allocated to either wholly unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations (see Note 11 – Revenue and Contract Balances). Related to this disclosure, the Company has elected to not disclose information about the amount of contract consideration allocated to remaining performance obligations for certain contracts that have original expected durations of one year or less. This may occur with contracts for sales of real estate that are executed as of the end of the period with control of the underlying assets to be transferred to the customer subsequent to the end of the period. The closing date of such transactions will generally occur within one year or less of the contract execution date.
Leases - The Company as Lessee
Leases - The Company as Lessee: The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception by considering whether that arrangement conveys the right to use an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company evaluates whether a lease is a finance or operating lease using the criteria established in ASC Topic 842, Leases. Right-of-use assets (ROU assets) and lease liabilities related to operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and Operating lease liabilities, respectively, in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets and lease liabilities related to finance leases are included in Real estate property, net and Notes payable and other debt, respectively, in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance lease ROU assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the lease term or using the useful life of the asset if the financing lease contains a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised. Interest expense on the finance lease liability is recognized using the effective interest rate method and is presented within Interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate and are not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before the commencement date and excludes any lease incentives received. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.
In connection with its application of the lease guidance, the Company has evaluated the lease and non-lease components within its leases where it is the lessee and has elected, for all classes of underling assets, the practical expedient to present lease and non-lease components in its lease agreements as one component. The Company has also elected, for all classes of underlying assets, to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets for leases with a term of 12 months or less.
Impairment of Investments in Joint Ventures and Partnerships
Impairment of Investments in Joint Ventures and Partnerships: The Company reviews its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and partnerships accounted for under the equity method for impairment whenever there are any indicators that the value may be impaired or that its carrying value may not be recoverable. To the extent indicators suggest that a loss in value
may have occurred, the Company will evaluate both quantitative and qualitative factors to determine if the loss in value is other than temporary. If a potential loss in value is determined to be other than temporary, the Company will recognize an impairment loss measured as the excess of the carrying value of the investment over the estimated fair value, which is recorded in impairment loss in the consolidated statement of operations. Significant estimates are involved in estimating fair value that are highly subjective and include considerable judgment, including the Company's current and future evaluation of general economic and market conditions, estimates regarding the timing and amount of future cash flows, including revenue, and cost of sales, and appropriate discount rates based on the perceived risks, among others. Changes in these and other assumptions could affect the fair value of the unconsolidated joint ventures and partnerships. The Company classifies these fair value measurements as Level 3.
Share-Based Compensation Share-Based Compensation: The Company records compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors.
Employee Benefit Plans
Employee Benefit Plans: The Company provides a wide range of benefits to current employees, including a defined contribution plan and health and welfare benefits, as well as post-employment benefits to qualified retired employees. The Company records amounts relating to certain benefit plans based on various actuarial assumptions, including, but not limited to discount rates, assumed rates of return, assumed salary increases, health care cost rate trends, and significant demographic assumptions. The Company reviews its actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current economic conditions and trends. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording obligations under the Company’s plans, which are presented in Note 15 – Employee Benefit Plans, are reasonable based on its experience and on advice from its independent actuaries; however, differences in actual experience or changes in the assumptions may materially affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Income Taxes Income Taxes: The Company makes certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments are applied in the calculation of tax credits, tax benefits and deductions, and in the calculation of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are adjusted to the extent necessary to reflect tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. Adjustments may be required to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities due to changes in tax laws and audit adjustments by tax authorities. To the extent adjustments are required in any given period, the adjustments would be included within the tax provision in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to an amount it believes is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Changes in the valuation allowance would be included within the tax provision in the period of adjustment.
Earnings Per Share (''EPS'')
Earnings Per Share (“EPS”): Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed and disclosed in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the classification of the Company’s unvested shares of restricted Common Stock,
which contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends as participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of Common Stock and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. In accordance with the two-class method, the Company's calculation of earnings per share excludes the income attributable to unvested shares of restricted Common Stock from the numerator of the calculation and the weighted average shares of Common Stock and potentially dilutive securities in accordance with the treasury stock method and /or if converted method. Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net earnings allocated to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings allocable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of share-based awards. Due to their anti-dilutive effect, the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented do not include anti-dilutive unvested restricted stock units. The Company utilizes the treasury stock method in 2025 and the two-class method in 2024 and 2023 to compute earnings available to common shareholders. For 2023, under the two-class method, earnings are also adjusted by accretion amounts to redeemable noncontrolling interests recorded at redemption value. The adjustments represent in-substance dividend distributions to the noncontrolling interest holder as the holder has a contractual right to receive a specified amount upon redemption. As a result, earnings are adjusted to reflect this in-substance distribution that is different from other common shareholders.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements and Recently issued accounting pronouncements
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 during the fourth quarter of 2025 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations and did not have a significant impact on its disclosures (refer to Note 16 – Income Taxes).
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06 ("ASU 2023-06"), Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendment in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. This ASU modified the disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of codification topics by aligning them with the SEC’s regulations. The amendments to the various topics should be applied prospectively, and the effective date will be determined for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure. If the SEC has not removed the applicable requirements from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K by June 30, 2027, then this ASU will not become effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect the amendments of this accounting standard update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 ("ASU 2024-03"), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. This ASU requires a public business entity to disclose specific information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to its financial statements for interim and annual reporting periods. The objective of the disclosure requirements is to provided disaggregated information about a public business entity's expenses to help investors (a) better understand the entity's performance, (b) better assess the entity's prospects for future cash flows, and (c) compare an entity's performance over time and with that of other entities. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, on either a prospective basis to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effect date, or on a retrospective basis to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
