The outside basis portion of the Company’s investments in joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally is non-recourse to the Company, except for customary exceptions pertaining to such matters as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions, and material misrepresentations.
The Company performed management, leasing, development and other services for the properties owned by the unconsolidated joint ventures, related parties to the Company, and recognized $0.7 million and $0.8 million for such services in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company had $0.3 million and $0.5 million in accounts receivable due from its unconsolidated joint ventures as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
