NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Significant Accounting Policies

For a description of the Partnership’s significant accounting policies, see Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements included in the Partnership’s 2021 Form 10-K, as well as the items noted below. There have been no substantial changes in such policies or the application of such policies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Consolidation

The Partnership analyzes whether it has a variable interest in an entity and whether that entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) to determine whether it is required to consolidate those entities. The Partnership performs the variable interest analysis for all entities in which it has a potential variable interest, which primarily consist of all entities with respect to which the Partnership serves as the sponsor, general partner or managing member, and general partner entities

not wholly owned by the Partnership. If the Partnership has a variable interest in the entity and the entity is a VIE, it will also analyze whether the Partnership is the primary beneficiary of this entity and whether consolidation is required.

In evaluating whether it has a variable interest in the entity, the Partnership reviews the equity ownership and the extent to which it absorbs risk created and distributed by the entity, as well as whether the fees charged to the entity are customary and commensurate with the level of effort required to provide services. Fees received by the Partnership are not variable interests if (i) the fees are compensation for services provided and are commensurate with the level of effort required to provide those services, (ii) the service arrangement includes only terms, conditions, or amounts that are customarily present in arrangements for similar services negotiated at arm’s length and (iii) the Partnership’s other economic interests in the VIE held directly and indirectly through its related parties, as well as economic interests held by related parties under common control, where applicable, would not absorb more than an insignificant amount of the entity’s losses or receive more than an insignificant amount of the entity’s benefits. Evaluation of these criteria requires judgment.

For entities determined to be VIEs, the Partnership must then evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiary of such VIEs. To make this determination, the Partnership evaluates its economic interests in the entity specifically determining if the Partnership has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE (the “benefits”). When making the determination on whether the benefits received from an entity are significant, the Partnership considers the total economics of the entity, and analyzes whether the Partnership’s share of the economics is significant. The Partnership utilizes qualitative factors, and, where applicable, quantitative factors, while performing the analysis.

VIEs of which the Partnership is the primary beneficiary have been included in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements. The portion of the consolidated subsidiaries owned by third parties and any related activity is eliminated through non-controlling interests in the consolidated balance sheets and income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests in the consolidated statements of operations.

Investments Held in Trust by Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

Investments held in trust represent funds raised by TGR, a consolidated special purpose acquisition company, through the TGR IPO (as defined in Note 3). These funds are held in an actively-traded money market fund, which invests in U.S. Treasury securities. Investments held in trust are classified as trading securities and are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in other income (expense)—interest earned on marketable securities in trust account on the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the trust account are determined using quoted prices in an active market and therefore are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 5— Fair Value Measurements.

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

Redeemable non-controlling interests represent the shares of TGR Class A common stock (as defined in Note 3) sold in the TGR IPO that are redeemable for cash by the public TGR shareholders concurrently with TGR’s initial business combination or in the event of TGR’s failure to complete a business combination or a tender offer. The redeemable non-controlling interests are initially recorded at their original issue price, net of issuance costs and the initial fair value of separately traded warrants. The carrying amount remains accreted to its full redemption value at September 30, 2022.
