CHOICE HOTELS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
January 2002, clarifies the application of the majority voting interest requirement of ARB No. 51, “Consolidated
Financial Statements,” to certain types of variable interest entities that do not have the characteristics of a
controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without
additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The controlling financial interest may be achieved
through arrangements that do not involve voting interests. Under FIN No. 46, if an entity is determined to be a
variable interest entity, it must be consolidated by the enterprise that absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected
losses if they occur, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns if they occur, or both. The
Company adopted the applicable provisions of FIN No. 46 on January 31, 2003. We were not required to
consolidate any previously unconsolidated entities as a result of adopting FIN No. 46. The impact of adopting the
provisions of FIN No. 46 was not material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
On May 31, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” This standard addresses how certain financial instruments with
characteristics of both liabilities and equity should be classified and measured. The provisions of SFAS No. 150
are effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at
the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, or our third quarter of 2003. The adoption
of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
