non-controlling interest and EPS
I'm modeling a company's financials. Last year, the company subtracted a loss from a non-controlling interest (company they own a stake in) when calculating EPS. I get that this EPS number is more reflective of the business itself, since it doesn't include the loss from its stake in the other business, but why do we exclude the loss? Shouldn't that loss be factored into EPS, since the company owns the stake? If you assign a multiple and price target to EPS as they calculate it, you're ignoring their stake in the other business!
Thanks so much in advance. I'm right out of school and this is for an ER interview. I studied molecular biology and am teaching myself accounting.
Non-controlling interest is the stake in whatever investment that the company does not own. So if company X owns 80% of company Y, there's a 20% NCI owned by some other party
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........
Thanks so much!!
If the stake in the company is a private one (no public info on it) how do account for this in your model, assuming it's significant compared to net income?
1) Use historical growth rate of the NCI 2) If you assume the subsidiary's top line is growing as fast as your top line, margin staying the same etc., you can tie it to % revenue
no. 1 isn't an option since there are only two years of data, but no. 2 will work great. Thanks so much for your help!
RE: Non controlling interest - I am seeing "Redeemable Non Controlling Interest" (RNCI) sometimes. The lingo "redeemable" is throwing me off. Would anyone happen to know whether it's the same as regular NCI (minority interest)? Thanks.
