Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] |
Noncontrolling Interest Disclosure [Text Block] | REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST The Company, in partnership with One Equity Partners (OEP) and the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), owns all of the equity interests in Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia. The Company is party to a shareholders' agreement with OEP and RDIF which was entered into in connection with the acquisition of Voltyre-Prom. The agreement contains a settlement put option which is exercisable beginning in July 2018 through December of 2018 and may require Titan to purchase the indirect equity interests in Voltyre-Prom of OEP and RDIF with cash or Titan common stock, at a value set by the agreement. The value set by the agreement is the greater of: (i) the aggregate of the investment of the selling party and an amount representing an internal rate of return of 8%; or (ii) the last twelve months of EBITDA times 5.5 less net debt times the ownership percentage. The value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest held by OEP and RDIF has been recorded at the aggregate of the investment of the selling party and an amount representing an internal rate of return of 8%, which was greater than the result of the calculation in clause (ii) above at September 30, 2017. The redemption features of the settlement put option are not solely within the Company’s control and the noncontrolling interest is presented as a redeemable noncontrolling interest separately from total equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at the redemption value of the settlement put option. If the redemption value is greater than the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest, the increase in the redemption value is adjusted directly to retained earnings of the affected entity, or additional paid-in capital if there are no available retained earnings applicable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest. In the first quarter of 2016, the Company acquired $25 million of additional shares in the consortium owning Voltyre-Prom, increasing Titan's ownership to 43% from 30%. The acquisition of shares was transacted through the conversion of an intercompany note previously held by Titan. As a result of the ownership change, the balance of the redeemable noncontrolling interest increased by $12 million at the time of such conversion of the intercompany note, which is comprised of a $3.5 million reclassification of currency translation and an $8.5 million reclassification of other equity. The following is a reconciliation of redeemable noncontrolling interest as of September 30, 2017 and 2016 (amounts in thousands):
| 2017 |  | 2016
Balance at January 1 | $ | 104,809 |  |  | $ | 77,174 |
Reclassification as a result of ownership change | — |  |  | 12,039 |
Income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest | 271 |  |  | 1,775 |
Currency translation | 1,955 |  |  | 3,330 |
Redemption value adjustment | 3,981 |  |  | 8,475 |
Balance at September 30 | $ | 111,016 |  |  | $ | 102,793 |
This obligation with respect to the settlement put option approximates the cost if all remaining shares in the consortium owning Voltyre-Prom were purchased by the Company on September 30, 2017, and is presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in redeemable noncontrolling interest, which is treated as mezzanine equity.
