4. Joint Ventures

The Company enters into JVs, from time to time, for the purpose of developing real estate and other business activities in which the Company may or may not have a controlling financial interest. GAAP requires consolidation of voting interest entities where the Company has a majority voting interest or control and VIEs in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest and is the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company examines specific criteria and uses judgment when determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary and must consolidate a VIE. The Company continues to evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiary as needed when assessing reconsideration events. Investments in JVs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or a voting interest entity where the Company does not have a majority voting interest or control, but has significant influence are unconsolidated and accounted for by the equity method of accounting.

The timing of cash flows for additional required capital contributions related to the Company’s JVs varies by agreement. Some of the Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated JVs have entered into financing agreements where the Company or its JV partners have provided guarantees. See Note 8. Debt, Net and Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information. The Company provides mitigation bank credits, impact and other fees, property for lease and services to certain unconsolidated JVs and incurs expense for leasing management services from the Company’s unconsolidated Watersound Management, LLC (“Watersound Management JV”), see Note 18. Related Party Transactions for additional information.
