Note 2. Equity Transactions

Equity Offering Transactions

On April 4, 2022, the Sponsors sold an aggregate of 10,235,000 of our Class A shares representing limited partner interests (the “Class A Shares”), inclusive of the underwriters’ option to purchase up to 1,335,000 of additional shares, which was fully exercised, in an underwritten public offering at a price of $29.50 per Class A Share, less underwriting discounts. The Sponsors received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $291.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts.

On May 19, 2023, the Sponsors sold an aggregate of 12,765,000 of our Class A Shares, inclusive of the underwriters’ option to purchase up to 1,665,000 of additional shares, which was fully exercised, in an underwritten public offering at a price of $27.00 per Class A Share, less underwriting discounts. The Sponsors received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $333.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts.

The Company did not receive any proceeds in the offerings. The above equity offering transactions were conducted pursuant to a registration rights agreement among us and the Sponsors. The Class A Shares sold in the offerings were obtained by the Sponsors by exchanging to us the respective number of their Class B units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (the “Class B Units”), together with an equal number of Class B shares representing limited partner interests in the Company (the “Class B Shares”) held by the Company’s general partner. As a result, the total number of Class A and Class B Shares did not change. The Company retained control in the Partnership based on the delegation of control provisions, as described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation. As a result of the equity offering transactions described above, we recognized adjustments increasing the carrying amount of the Class A shareholders’ capital balance by $11.0 million (six months ended June 30, 2022: $27.0 million) and decreasing the carrying amount of noncontrolling interest by an equal amount to reflect the change in ownership interest.

 

Class B Unit Repurchases

On March 29, 2022, the Company, the Partnership and our Sponsors entered into a unit repurchase agreement pursuant to which the Partnership agreed to purchase from the Sponsors, subject to the 2022 secondary equity offering transaction described above, an aggregate number of Class B Units to be determined by dividing (a) $400.0 million by (b) the public offering price of the Class A Shares to be set in the secondary offering. On April 4, 2022, the repurchase transaction closed, and the Partnership purchased directly from the Sponsors 13,559,322 Class B Units at a purchase price per Class B Unit of $29.50, which is equal to the public offering price per Class A Share in the 2022 equity offering transaction described above. The 2022 repurchase transaction was funded using borrowings under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility, which were subsequently repaid with proceeds from a $400.0 million senior unsecured notes offering (see Note 6, Debt and Interest Expense).

On March 27, 2023, the Company, the Partnership and our Sponsors entered into a unit repurchase agreement pursuant to which the Partnership agreed to purchase from the Sponsors 3,619,254 Class B Units for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100.0 million. The repurchase transaction was consummated on March 30, 2023. The purchase price per Class B Unit was $27.63, the closing price of the Class A Shares on March 27, 2023. The March 2023 repurchase transaction was funded using borrowings under the Partnership’s existing revolving credit facility (see Note 6, Debt and Interest Expense).

On June 26, 2023, the Company, the Partnership and our Sponsors entered into a unit repurchase agreement pursuant to which the Partnership agreed to purchase from the Sponsors 3,350,084 Class B Units for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100.0 million. The repurchase transaction was consummated on June 29, 2023. The purchase price per Class B Unit was $29.85, the closing price of the Class A Shares on June 26, 2023. The June 2023 repurchase transaction was funded using borrowings under the Partnership’s existing revolving credit facility (see Note 6, Debt and Interest Expense).

Pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreements described above, immediately following each purchase of the Class B Units from the Sponsors, the Partnership cancelled the repurchased units, and the Company cancelled, for no consideration, an equal number of its Class B Shares.

The repurchase transactions were accounted for in accordance with ASC 810 whereby changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the noncontrolling interest were adjusted to reflect the changes in the ownership interest with the difference between the amounts of consideration paid and the amounts by which the noncontrolling interest were adjusted recognized as a reduction in equity attributable to Class A shareholders. We incurred approximately $1.8 million of costs directly attributable to the repurchase transactions that were charged to equity (six months ended June 30, 2022: $1.5 million).

As a result of the equity offerings and the unit repurchase transactions described above, we also recognized an additional deferred tax asset of $91.5 million (six months ended June 30, 2022: $86.4 million) related to the change in the temporary difference between the carrying amount and the tax basis of our investment in the Partnership. The effect of recognizing the additional deferred tax asset was included in Class A shareholders’ equity balance in the accompanying consolidated statement of changes in partners’ capital due to the transactions being characterized as transactions among or with shareholders.
