Certain of the Company’s noncontrolling interests have industry-specific redemption features whereby the Company could be obligated, under the terms of certain of its operating subsidiaries’ partnership and operating agreements, to purchase some or all of the noncontrolling interests of the consolidated subsidiaries. As a result, these noncontrolling interests are not included as part of the Company’s equity and are carried as Noncontrolling interests-redeemable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The activity relating to the Company’s noncontrolling interests — redeemable is summarized below:
