Purchase of Equity Investment
The Company holds an equity investment in a privately-held company (“Equity Investment”), which it acquired for $51.5 million. The Company’s pro-rata share of earnings from this investment was $1.1 million and $1.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and was recorded in other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss).
This investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The following table summarizes the Company's equity in this nonconsolidated investment:

The Equity Investment has been determined to be a variable interest entity because the Company has an overall 93.8% economic position in the investee, comprising a significant portion of its capitalization, but has only a 25% voting interest. The Company’s obligation to receive rewards and absorb expected losses is disproportionate to its voting interest. The Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have the power to direct the activities of the equity investment that most significantly impact its economic performance. Certain business decisions, including decisions with respect to operating budgets, material capital expenditures, indebtedness, significant acquisitions or dispositions, and strategic decisions, require the approval of owners holding a majority percentage in the Equity Investment. Beginning on the date it was acquired, the Company accounted for its interest as an equity method investment as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the Equity Investment.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s maximum financial statement exposure related to the Equity Investment was approximately $58.8 million, which is included in Investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2020.
In August 2020, the Company agreed to purchase the remaining 6.2% ownership from the minority holders.
