NOTE 15 – Nonredeemable and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest and Stockholders’ Equity
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
The redeemable noncontrolling interest relates to Class A Opco Units, including units issued in connection with the Business Combinations and units owned by the Sponsor (or their transferees), Atlas or the Company’s directors. As of June 30, 2022, the Company directly owned approximately 67.4% of the interest in Opco and the redeemable noncontrolling interest was 32.6%. As of December 31, 2021, the Company owned approximately 54.5% of the interest in Opco and the redeemable noncontrolling interest was 45.5%. Holders of Class A Opco Units other than Archaea own an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock and have a redemption right, subject to certain limitations, to redeem Class A Opco Units and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock for, at Opco’s option, (i) shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, or (ii) a corresponding amount of cash. Due to the cash redemption provisions of the redemption right, the Company has accounted for the redeemable noncontrolling interest as temporary equity.
