| Investments and advances to equity method investments | 6. Investments and advances to equity method investments The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s joint ventures are as follows: i) Falcon’s Creative Group Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement by and between FCG and QIC Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of QIC (the “Subscription Agreement”), QIC Delaware, Inc., holds 25% of FCG's equity interest in the form of preferred units (the "Strategic Investment"), and the Company, holds the remaining 75% of the equity interest in the form of common units. FCG's amended and restated limited liability company agreement (“LLCA”) includes QIC as a member and provides QIC with certain consent, priority and preemptive rights. QIC is entitled to redeem its preferred units on the earlier of (a) the five-year anniversary of the Strategic Investment on July 27, 2028 or (b) any date on which a majority of key persons cease to be employed by FCG. The LLCA contains contractual provisions regarding the distribution of FCG’s income or loss. Pursuant to these provisions, QIC is entitled to a redemption amount of the initial $30.0 million investment plus a 9% annual compounding preferred return. QIC does not absorb losses from FCG that would cause its investment to drop below this redemption amount and any losses not absorbed by QIC are fully allocated to the Company. QIC, as the holder of the preferred units of FCG, has priority with respect to any distributions by FCG, to the extent there is cash available. Under the LLCA, such distributions are payable (i) first, to QIC until the holders’ preferred return is reduced to zero, (ii) second, to QIC until the investment amount is reduced to zero, (iii) third, to the Company until it has received an amount per common unit equal to the amount per preferred unit paid to QIC, and (iv) fourth, to QIC and the Company on a pro-rata basis of 25% and 75%, respectively. The Company recognizes 100% of net income (loss), less 9% preferred return to QIC, accretion of fees and amortization of the basis difference of deconsolidation of FCG. The Company will continue to recognize 100% of the gains or losses from its equity method investment in FCG based on the terms of the LLCA until the split in equity accounts becomes 25% related to QIC and 75% to the Company. The LLCA grants QIC the right to block or participate in certain significant operating and capital decisions of FCG, including the approval of FCG’s budget and business plan, strategic investments, and incurring additional debt, among others. These rights allow QIC to effectively participate in significant financial and operating decisions of FCG that are made in FCG’s ordinary course of business. As such, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest since QIC has the substantive right to participate in FCG’s business decisions. Therefore, FCG is accounted for as an equity method investment in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company and FCG are part of an intercompany service agreement (“Intercompany Services Agreement”) and a license agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2024, FCG terminated three leases with Penut, a related party of FCG. As the termination of these leases extinguished a liability with a related party at no cost, the gain on termination of $0.5 million was accounted for by FCG as a capital contribution. The Company adjusted its equity method investment in FCG to reflect the change in the Company's claim on FCG's net assets. This adjustment was recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as Share of change in equity of equity method investment. ii) PDP PDP is an unconsolidated joint venture with Meliá Hotels International, S.A. (“Meliá Group”) for the development and operation of hotel resorts and theme parks. The Company has 50% voting rights and shares 50% of profits and losses in this joint venture. PDP operates one hotel resort and theme park located in Mallorca, Spain. PDP operated a hotel located at Tenerife in the Canary Islands until the sale on May 30, 2025. PDP sold all of the shares of Tertian XXI, S.L., (“Tertian”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDP, which owned the real estate assets comprising the resort hotel at Tenerife, the (“Tenerife Sale”). The Company received $27.0 million in a cash dividend distribution from PDP as a result of the transaction. PDP recognized a pre tax gain on sale of $60.0 million. The Company recognized its 50% share of the gain of $30.0 million in share of gain from equity method investments included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Partial Impairment of Investment in PDP The Tenerife Sale represents a significant change in circumstances that could impact the fair value of the Company’s remaining investment in PDP. Accordingly, the Company performed an impairment evaluation of its equity method investment in PDP to determine whether the remaining carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value. The Company evaluated its remaining equity investment in PDP for impairment as of June 30, 2025 and determined that it was other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in PDP using the direct capitalization method of the income approach. The Company used the property's estimated net operating income, yearly growth rate, capital expenditure reserves and a capitalization rate as the primary significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The estimated fair value is based upon assumptions that Management believes are reasonable, and the impact of variations in these estimates or the underlying assumptions could be material. The fair value of the Company’s investment in PDP was determined to be $27.1 million. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $5.3 million, which is recorded in Share of gain (loss) from equity method investments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. iii) Karnival The Company has a 50% interest in Karnival, an unconsolidated joint venture with Raging Power Limited, a subsidiary of New World Development Company Limited (“Raging Power”). The purpose of the joint venture was to hold ownership interests in entities developing and operating amusement centers located in the People’s Republic of China. The Company has concluded that Karnival is a VIE, because the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Karnival, as such decisions are taken by the unanimous consent of the representatives of the joint venture partners. The Company, therefore, does not consolidate Karnival and accounts for the investment as an equity method investment. In October 2025, the Company and its joint venture partners agreed to terminate this project and windup the joint venture due to protracted delays in the underlying location development schedule. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had funded $6.6 million (HKD 51 million). The advances provided to Karnival are accounted for as investments and classified within Investments and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures equity method investments. Partial Impairment of Investment in Karnival The winding up process of the joint venture represents a significant change in circumstances that could impact the fair value of the Company’s remaining investment in Karnival. Accordingly, the Company performed an impairment evaluation of its equity method investment in Karnival to determine whether the remaining carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value. The Company evaluated its remaining equity investment in Karnival for impairment as of September 30, 2025 and determined that it was other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in Karnival using the liquidation value of cash and cash equivalents less estimated costs to liquidate as the primary unobservable inputs (Level 2). The estimated fair value is based upon assumptions that Management believes are reasonable, and the impact of variations in these estimates or the underlying assumptions could be material. The fair value of the Company’s investment in Karnival was determined to be $4.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $3.0 million, which is recorded in Share of gain (loss) from equity method investments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. iv) Sierra Parima Sierra Parima was an equity method investment with Meliá Group focused on the development and operation of hotel resorts and theme parks. The Company had 50% voting rights and shared 50% of profits and losses in this joint venture. The Sierra Parima Katmandu Park closed in March 2024 following financial, operational, and infrastructure challenges. As of December 31, 2023, the equity investment was deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
