11. Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of equity that the Company does not own in those entities it consolidates as a result of having a controlling interest or having determined that the Company was the primary beneficiary of a VIE in accordance with the provisions of the FASB’s Consolidation guidance. The Company accounts and reports for noncontrolling interests in accordance with the Consolidation guidance and the Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity guidance issued by the FASB. The Company identifies its noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the Company and to the noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company owns eight shopping center properties located in Long Island, NY, which were acquired during 2022, partially through the issuance of $122.1 million of Preferred Outside Partner Units and $13.6 million of Common Outside Partner Units. The noncontrolling interest was classified as mezzanine equity and included in Redeemable noncontrolling interests on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a result of the put right available to the unit holders, an event that is not solely in the Company’s control. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, all of the 824,410 Preferred Outside Partner Units outstanding and 170,585 Common Outside Partner Units outstanding were redeemed for cash of $20.2 million, in separate transactions, and as such, this entity is no longer a VIE. These transactions resulted in a net decrease in Redeemable noncontrolling interests of $14.8 million and a decrease in the embedded derivative liability in Other liabilities of $5.4 million on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company paid $12.5 million, in January 2026, related to the put option exercised in December 2025, which resulted in a decrease in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, 46,461 Preferred Outside Partner Units and 5,162 Common Outside Partner Units were redeemed for cash of $1.0 million, in separate transactions.
