Equity Method Investments
Clean Planet Energy USA LLC
In November 2021, we acquired 50% of the Class A shares of Clean Planet Energy USA LLC (“CPE”) with an initial investment of $1.0 million. CPE intends on building waste plastic-to-fuel plants in the United States. The plants will convert various grades of non-recyclable waste plastic to renewable diesel in the form of jet fuel, diesel, naphtha, and low sulfur fuel oil. We account for our investment in CPE as an equity method investment as we have significant influence through our ownership of Class A shares.
Falcon MSN 177 LLC
In November 2021, we invested $1.6 million for a 50% interest in Falcon MSN 177 LLC, an entity that consists of one Dassault Falcon 2000 aircraft. Falcon MSN 177 LLC leases the aircraft to charter operators on aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance contracts. We account for our investment in Falcon as an equity method investment as we have significant influence through our interest.
GM-FTAI Holdco LLC
In September 2021, we acquired 1% of the Class A shares and 50% of the Class B shares of GM-FTAI Holdco LLC for $52.5 million. GM-FTAI Holdco LLC owns 100% interest in Gladieux Metals Recycling (“GMR”) and Aleon Renewable Metals LLC (“Aleon”). GMR specializes in recycling spent catalyst produced in the petroleum refining industry.
Aleon plans to develop a lithium-ion battery recycling business across the United States. Each planned location will collect, discharge and disassemble lithium-ion batteries to extract various metals in high-purity form for resale into the lithium-ion battery production market. Aleon and GMR are governed by separate boards of directors. Our ownership of Class A and B shares in GM-FTAI Holdco LLC provides us with 1% and 50% economic interest in GMR and Aleon, respectively. We account for our investment in GM-FTAI Holdco LLC as an equity method investment as we have significant influence through our ownership of Class A and Class B shares of GM-FTAI Holdco LLC.
On June 15, 2022, we exchanged our Class B shares which gave us economic interest in Aleon for an additional 20% interest in Class A shares. In addition, we also terminated our credit agreements with GMR and Aleon in exchange for an approximate 8.5% of additional interest in Class A shares. At June 30, 2022 as a result of these exchange transactions, we own approximately 27% of GM-FTAI Holdco LLC, which owns 100% of both GMR and Aleon.
Long Ridge Terminal LLC
In December 2019, Ohio River Shareholder LLC (“ORP”), a wholly owned subsidiary, contributed its equity interests in Long Ridge into Long Ridge Terminal LLC and sold a 49.9% interest (the “Long Ridge Transaction”) for $150 million in cash, plus an earn out. We no longer have a controlling interest in Long Ridge but still maintain significant influence through our retained interest and, therefore, now account for this investment in accordance with the equity method. Following the sale, we deconsolidated ORP, which held the assets of Long Ridge.

Advanced Engine Repair JV
In December 2016, we invested $15 million for a 25% interest in an advanced engine repair joint venture. We focus on developing new cost savings programs for engine repairs. We exercise significant influence over this investment and account for this investment as an equity method investment.

Equity Investments
FYX Trust Holdco LLC
In July 2020, we invested $1.3 million for a 14% interest in an operating company that provides roadside assistance services for the intermodal and over-the-road trucking industries. FYX Trust Holdco LLC (“FYX”) has developed a mobile and web-based application that connects fleet managers, owner-operators, and drivers with repair vendors to efficiently and reliably quote, dispatch, monitor, and bill roadside repair services.
In May 2022, we purchased an additional 51% interest in FYX from an unrelated third party for a purchase price of $4.6 million, which resulted in our ownership of a majority stake in the entity. From the purchase date in May 2022 through and as of June 30, 2022, FYX is presented on a consolidated basis in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Consolidated Balance Sheet. $4.2 million is recorded as non-controlling interest for interest held by other parties at June 30, 2022. At the purchase date, assets of FYX were $13.7 million, liabilities were $10.1 million, and goodwill of $5.4 million was recorded. Since purchase, we have recorded total revenue from FYX of $10.1 million and net loss from FYX of $0.4 million.
