VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES |
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES The Company relies on the operating activities of certain entities that it does not have the majority voting interest, but over which it has indirect influence and of which it is considered the primary beneficiary. These entities are subject to the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities (VIEs). Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), VIEs typically include entities for which (i) the entity’s equity is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (ii) the equity holders as a group lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly influence the entity’s economic performance, the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses, or the right to receive the entity’s expected returns; or (iii) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the entity’s losses. The Company has determined that substantially all of the entities it is associated with that qualify as VIEs must be included in its consolidated financial statements. For its joint ventures, the Company has determined that contractual rights granted to it provide the Company with the ability to direct the most significant activities of these entities, including development, administrative and management services. In some cases, the contractual agreements include financial terms that may result in the Company absorbing more than an insignificant amount of the entities expected losses. Therefore, the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of these entities. Accordingly, the financial results of these joint ventures are fully consolidated into the Company’s operating results. The equity interests of the outside investors in the equity and results of operations of these consolidated entities are accounted for and presented as noncontrolling interests.
The analyses upon which these consolidation determinations rest are complex, involve uncertainties, and require significant judgment on various matters, some of which could be subject to different interpretations. As of March 31, 2017, these condensed consolidated financial statements include total assets of VIEs of $16,231 and total liabilities of VIEs of $12,287. Term Loan Holdings The Company has determined that we are not the primary beneficiary under VIE accounting guidance for Term Loan Holdings, as discussed in “Note 2—Initial Public Offering.” Based on our involvement with Term Loan Holdings, we do not have the power to direct the activities which most significantly impact Term Loan Holding’s economic performance, and therefore this entity is not included in our consolidated financials. The Company’s financial responsibility to repay the loans under its guarantee of a proportionate share of each clinic’s borrowing was not a factor in the Company’s assessment of the power criterion. The maximum exposure to loss with respect to Term Loan Holdings is limited to the proportion of the assigned clinic loans which we guarantee. See “Note 13—Related Party Transactions.”
