(1)Included within Other liabilities, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
In connection with the acquisition of certain farmland located in Fresno County, California, we also acquired an ownership in a related LLC, the sole purpose of which is to own and maintain a pipeline conveying water to our and other neighboring
properties. As of March 31, 2021, our aggregate ownership interest in the LLC was 50.0%. As our investment in the LLC is deemed to constitute “significant influence,” we have accounted for this investment under the equity method.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we recorded (loss) income of approximately $(13,000) and $34,000, respectively (included on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as (Loss) income from investments in unconsolidated entities), which represents our pro-rata share of the (loss) income recognized by the LLC. Our combined ownership interest in the LLC, which had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $1.1 million and $1.2 million, as of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively, is included within Other assets, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Portfolio Concentrations
Credit Risk
As of March 31, 2021, our farms were leased to various different, unrelated third-party tenants, with certain tenants leasing more than one farm. No individual tenant represented greater than 10.0% of the total lease revenue recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Geographic Risk
Farms located in California and Florida accounted for approximately $9.9 million (61.9%) and $3.4 million (20.9%), respectively, of the total lease revenue recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Though we seek to continue to further diversify geographically, as may be desirable or feasible, should an unexpected natural disaster (such as an earthquake, wildfire, or flood) occur or climactic change impact the regions where our properties are located, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial performance and ability to continue operations. No other single state accounted for more than 10.0% of our total lease revenue recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Impairment
We evaluate our entire portfolio each quarter for any impairment indicators and perform an impairment analysis on those select properties that have an indication of impairment. As of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, we concluded that none of our properties were impaired. There have been no impairments recognized on our real estate assets since our inception.
