8. Equity in Investments (continued) Unconsolidated Significant Subsidiary In accordance with Rule 10-01(b)(1) of Regulation S-X, which applies to interim reports on Form 10-Q, the Company must determine if its equity method investees are considered “significant subsidiaries”. In evaluating its investments, there are two tests utilized to determine if equity method investees are considered significant subsidiaries: the income test and the investment test. Summarized income statement information of an equity method investee is required in an interim report if either of the two tests exceed 20% in the interim periods presented. During the year-to-date interim period for the six months ended April 30, 2019, this threshold was met for the LLCB and thus summarized income statement information is presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following is unaudited summarized financial information for LLCB (in thousands):
