Uniti Group Inc.

Schedule I – Condensed Financial Information of

The Registrant (Parent Company)

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

 

Note 1.  Background and Basis of Presentation

Uniti Group Inc.’s parent company financial information has been derived from its consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes of Uniti and its subsidiaries included in Item 8 Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Note 2. Subsidiary Transactions

Investment in Subsidiaries

During 2017, the parent company completed its reorganization (the “up-REIT Reorganization”) to operate through a customary “up-REIT” structure, pursuant to which we hold substantially all of our assets through a partnership, Uniti Group LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), that we control as general partner, with the only significant difference between the financial position and results of operations of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries compared to the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations of Uniti is that the results for the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries do not include Uniti’s Consumer CLEC segment, which consists of Talk America Services.  The up-REIT structure is intended to facilitate future acquisition opportunities by providing the Company with the ability to use common units of the Operating Partnership as a tax-efficient acquisition currency.  As of December 31, 2020, we are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and own approximately 98.5% of the partnership interests in the Operating Partnership.

Dividends

Cash dividends received from subsidiaries and recorded in Cash Flow from Operating Activities in the Condensed Statement of Cash Flows were $134.7 million, $136.2 million and $426.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
