NOTE 10. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Noncontrolling Interests of the Company

Third parties held rights to convert noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership to 10,283 shares of common stock at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The assets and liabilities allocated to the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interests are based on their ownership percentages of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2022 and 2021. The ownership percentages are determined by dividing the number of common units held by each of the noncontrolling interests at December 31, 2022 and 2021 by the total common units outstanding at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The noncontrolling interest ownership percentage in assets and liabilities of the Successor Operating Partnership was 0.03% and 0.01% at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income is allocated to the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interests based on their weighted-average ownership during the year. The ownership percentages are determined by dividing the weighted-average number of common units held by each of the noncontrolling interests by the total weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the year.

A change in the number of shares of common stock or common units changes the percentage ownership of all partners of the Operating Partnership. A common unit is considered to be equivalent to a share of common stock since it generally is exchangeable for shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s election, their cash equivalent. As a result, an allocation is made between shareholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the Successor Company's accompanying balance sheets to reflect the change in ownership of the Operating Partnership’s underlying equity when there is a change in the number of shares and/or common units outstanding. During the period January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company allocated $865 and $6,002, respectively, from shareholders' equity to noncontrolling interest. During the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company allocated $6 and $302, respectively, from shareholders' equity to redeemable noncontrolling interest. There is no redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Successor Company.

The total noncontrolling interest in the Successor Operating Partnership was $121 and $282 at December 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

Noncontrolling Interests in Other Consolidated Subsidiaries

The Successor Company had 11 and 12 other consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, that had noncontrolling interests held by third parties and for which the related partnership agreements either do not include redemption provisions or are subject to redemption provisions that do not require classification outside of permanent equity. The total noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries of the Successor Company was $(3,533) and $4,618 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The assets and liabilities allocated to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries of the Successor Company are based on the third parties’ ownership percentages in each subsidiary at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income is allocated to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries based on the third parties’ weighted-average ownership in each subsidiary during the year.

Variable Interest Entities (VIE)

The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries are deemed to have the characteristics of a VIE primarily because the limited partners of these entities do not collectively possess substantive kick-out or participating rights.

Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor proportionate rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a VIE, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company, through the Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Company's investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the Company's business activities and the business activities of the other investors.

The table below lists the Successor Company's consolidated VIEs as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, which do not reflect the elimination of any internal debt a consolidated VIE has with the Operating Partnership:
