Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)


Note 1. Organization
The RMR Group Inc., or RMR Inc., is a holding company and substantially all of its business is conducted by its majority owned subsidiary, The RMR Group LLC, or RMR LLC. RMR Inc. is a Maryland corporation and RMR LLC is a Maryland limited liability company. RMR Inc. serves as the sole managing member of RMR LLC and, in that capacity, operates and controls the business and affairs of RMR LLC. In these condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise indicated, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to RMR Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including RMR LLC.
As of December 31, 2023, RMR Inc. owned 15,710,555 class A membership units of RMR LLC, or Class A Units, and 1,000,000 class B membership units of RMR LLC, or Class B Units. The aggregate RMR LLC membership units RMR Inc. owns represented 52.7% of the economic interest of RMR LLC as of December 31, 2023. We refer to economic interest as the right of a holder of a Class A Unit or Class B Unit to share in distributions made by RMR LLC and, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of RMR LLC, to share in the assets of RMR LLC after payments to creditors. A wholly owned subsidiary of ABP Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, owns 15,000,000 redeemable Class A Units, representing 47.3% of the economic interest of RMR LLC as of December 31, 2023, which is presented as noncontrolling interest in The RMR Group LLC within the condensed consolidated financial statements. Adam D. Portnoy, the Chair of our Board, one of our Managing Directors and our President and Chief Executive Officer, is the sole trustee of ABP Trust, and owns all of ABP Trust’s voting securities.
RMR LLC provides management services to four publicly traded equity real estate investment trusts, or REITs: Diversified Healthcare Trust, or DHC, which owns medical office and life science properties, senior living communities and other healthcare related properties; Industrial Logistics Properties Trust, or ILPT, which owns and leases industrial and logistics properties; Office Properties Income Trust, or OPI, which owns and leases office properties primarily to single tenants and those with high credit quality characteristics; and Service Properties Trust, or SVC, which owns a diverse portfolio of hotels and service-focused retail net lease properties. DHC, ILPT, OPI and SVC are collectively referred to as the Managed Equity REITs.
RMR LLC’s wholly owned subsidiary, Tremont Realty Capital LLC, or Tremont, an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, provides advisory services for Seven Hills Realty Trust, or SEVN. SEVN is a publicly traded mortgage REIT that focuses on originating and investing in first mortgage loans secured by middle market and transitional commercial real estate. Tremont may also act as a transaction broker for non-investment advisory clients for negotiated fees, which we refer to as the Tremont business.
RMR LLC also provided management services to TravelCenters of America Inc., or TA, until it was acquired by BP Products North America Inc., or BP, on May 15, 2023. TA, a publicly traded operating company until the time BP acquired it, operates and franchises travel centers primarily along the United States, or U.S., interstate highway system, many of which are owned by SVC, and standalone truck service facilities. The Managed Equity REITs, SEVN, and until May 15, 2023, TA, are collectively referred to as the Perpetual Capital clients.
RMR LLC provides management services to AlerisLife Inc., or AlerisLife, an operator of senior living communities, many of which are owned by DHC, and Sonesta International Hotels Corporation, or Sonesta, a privately owned franchisor and operator of hotels, resorts and cruise ships in the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean and the Middle East, and many of the U.S. hotels that Sonesta operates are owned by SVC.
On December 19, 2023, or the Acquisition Date, RMR LLC acquired MPC Partnership Holdings LLC, or MPC, including MPC’s management agreements, or the Acquisition. In connection with the Acquisition, RMR LLC started providing management services through MPC and its subsidiaries to multiple private funds and the underlying residential real estate assets of the funds. The residential real estate we manage through MPC and its subsidiaries are presented as RMR Residential in these condensed consolidated financial statements. For additional information regarding the Acquisition, see Note 3, Acquisition of MPC Partnership Holdings LLC.
In addition, RMR LLC provides management services to other private capital vehicles including ABP Trust and other private entities that own commercial real estate, of which certain of our Managed Equity REITs own minority equity interests. These other private clients, along with AlerisLife, Sonesta and clients of RMR Residential are collectively referred to as the Private Capital clients.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, or our 2023 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
We report our results in a single reportable segment, which reflects how our chief operating decision maker, or the CODM, allocates resources and evaluates our financial results. Preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. Significant estimates in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include purchase price allocations, useful lives of intangibles and the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. The actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Segments. On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued Accounting Standards Codification, or ASU, No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, or ASU No. 2023-07, which requires public entities to: i) provide disclosures of significant segment expenses and other segment items if they are regularly provided to the CODM and included in each reported measure of segment profit or loss; ii) provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required by ASC 280, Segment Reporting, or ASC 280, in interim periods; and iii) disclose the CODM’s title and position, as well as an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures and other disclosures. Public entities with a single reportable segment must apply all the disclosure requirements of ASU No. 2023-07, as well as all the existing segment disclosures under ASC 280. The amendments in ASU No. 2023-07 are incremental to the requirements in ASC 280 and do not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. ASU No. 2023-07 should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2023-07 will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Income Taxes. On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, or ASU No. 2023-09, which requires public entities to enhance its annual income tax disclosures by requiring: i) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, and ii) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU No. 2023-09 should be applied prospectively but entities have the option to apply it retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2023-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Note 3. Acquisition of MPC Partnership Holdings LLC
On the Acquisition Date, RMR LLC acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of MPC, excluding certain assets (including co-investment interests of legacy investment funds managed by MPC and the rights to future distributions and income allocations in respect of such interests) and liabilities (including liabilities related to such excluded assets), for $80,000 in cash, subject to customary adjustments for cash, debt, transaction expenses and working capital at closing, which are expected to be finalized during this fiscal year, plus up to an additional $20,000 subject to the deployment of remaining capital commitments in investment funds managed by MPC prior to the end of such funds’ investment period, or the Earnout. As part of the purchase price, we agreed to pay certain employees of MPC an aggregate amount of $4,200 for their continued employment through December 31, 2025, or the Retention Payments. The Retention Payments are recognized as transaction and acquisition related costs and are forfeitable upon termination of employment prior to the end of the service period.

The RMR Group Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
The Earnout represents contingent consideration of the Acquisition. The fair value of the Earnout was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), including management’s estimates of the deployment of capital remaining in investment funds managed by MPC, adjusted for historical volatility of similar transactions, and a discount rate based on credit ratings of companies similar to RMR LLC. For additional information, see Note 7, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
The following table summarizes the consideration transferred as of the Acquisition Date and excludes transaction costs:
Cash consideration paid by RMR LLC
$84,474 
Earnout
14,547 
Total consideration
$99,021 
The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair values as of the Acquisition Date. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the Acquisition Date.
Goodwill of $69,762 has been recognized based on the amount that the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired less the amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entity. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes and is primarily attributable to the workforce of the acquired business and synergies that can be achieved subsequent to the Acquisition.

Real estate, acquired leases and mortgage note payable
We acquired a 90.0% economic ownership interest in 260 Woodstock Investor, LLC, a mixed-use apartment complex with 23 residential units and 8,620 square feet of fully occupied retail space located in Woodstock, GA, or the Woodstock Property. The allocation of the fair value of the Woodstock Property and related acquired leases as of the Acquisition Date is as follows:
Land$1,400 
Building and improvements7,060 
Acquired leases703 
Total real estate and acquired leases
$9,163 
We determined the fair value of the Woodstock Property and related acquired leases using Level 3 inputs and standard industry valuation methods, including discounted cash flow analyses and sales comparisons. Building and improvements had a remaining useful life of 25 years and the weighted average amortization period for acquired leases was 2.9 years as of the Acquisition Date.
A mortgage note payable with a fair value of $4,726 and an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $5,429 is secured by the Woodstock Property, bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.71% per annum and matures in August 2029. Interest only payments are due on a monthly basis until September 2025, at which time payments of principal and interest are due monthly until the loan matures in August 2029. We determined the fair value of the mortgage note payable by discounting the expected cash flows at a rate comparable with interest rates for similar debt as of the Acquisition Date (Level 3 inputs). Principal payments due during the next five fiscal years are: $0 in 2024, $8 in 2025, $98 in 2026, $102 in 2027 $5,221 in 2028 and thereafter.
The Woodstock Property is consolidated in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Woodstock Property is included in property and equipment, net, and the related acquired leases are included in goodwill and intangibles assets, net of amortization, in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Acquisition Date fair value of the noncontrolling interest in the Woodstock Property (10% ownership we did not acquire) of $444 is reflected in noncontrolling interests in consolidated entity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Property management and investment management agreements
As of the Acquisition Date, MPC managed 66 properties, including 14 in which MPC did not have an economic ownership interest in, or the Third Party Managed Properties, through its property management agreements and managed four funds through its investment management agreements. The property management agreements may be terminated upon written notice and generally provide for property management fees ranging from 2.5% to 3.5% of gross collected rents, construction management fees of 5.0% of construction costs and reimbursement of costs incurred to manage the properties. The investment management agreements generally provide for fees that are based on the lesser of a percentage of invested capital and a fixed fee ranging from $100 to $200 annually. The weighted average remaining useful life of these agreements was 5.6 years.
Trade name
MPC operates many of its residential properties under the trade name ARIUM. We concluded this asset has an indefinite life.
Investor relationships
MPC has relationships with institutional investors that have invested in, and may continue to invest in, the funds managed by MPC. The weighted average remaining useful life of these relationships was 5.0 years.
Managed funds
As of the Acquisition Date and pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2023, by and among RMR LLC, MPC, and the sellers and seller owners set forth therein, we manage four funds that invest in residential real estate. Three of the four funds have no unfunded capital commitments remaining. As of the Acquisition Date, CARROLL Multifamily Venture VII, LP, or Fund VII, had $208,026 in unfunded capital commitments remaining from total capital commitments of $342,825. In the future, we will be eligible to participate in distributions and profits interests on investments from capital commitments we provide to Fund VII, or Investment Interest; however, we had no Investment Interest in Fund VII as of the

Acquisition Date, and as of the Acquisition Date, we had no obligations nor rights to any distributions or profits interests from investments of capital contributed on or prior to the Acquisition Date.
As of December 31, 2023, we have not contributed any capital to Fund VII or any of the other funds we manage. Accordingly, the results of such funds are not reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Unaudited pro forma financial information for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 is presented below. Pro forma financial information presented does not include adjustments related to the Earnout or to reflect any potential synergies that may be achievable in connection with the Acquisition.

Note 4. Revenue Recognition
Revenues from services we provide are recognized as earned over time as the services provided represent performance obligations that are satisfied over time.
Management Agreements with the Managed Equity REITs
We are party to a business management and a property management agreement with each Managed Equity REIT. The following is a summary of the fees we earn pursuant to our business management agreements with the Managed Equity REITs. For a summary of the fees we earn pursuant to our property management agreements with the Managed Equity REITs, see Property Management Agreements, below.
Base Business Management Fees We earn annual base business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs by providing continuous services pursuant to business management agreements equal to the lesser of:
the sum of (a) 0.5% of the historical cost of transferred real estate assets, if any, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, plus (b) 0.7% of the average invested capital (exclusive of the transferred real estate assets), as defined in the applicable business management agreement, up to $250,000, plus (c) 0.5% of the average invested capital exceeding $250,000; and
the sum of (a) 0.7% of the average market capitalization, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, up to $250,000, plus (b) 0.5% of the average market capitalization exceeding $250,000.
11

The RMR Group Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
The foregoing base business management fees are paid in cash monthly in arrears. 
We earned aggregate base business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs of $21,550 and $21,373 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Incentive Business Management Fees We also may earn annual incentive business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs under the business management agreements. The incentive business management fees, which are payable in cash, are contingent performance based fees recognized only when earned at the end of each respective measurement period. Incentive business management fees are excluded from the transaction price until it becomes probable that there will not be a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized.
The incentive business management fees are calculated for each Managed Equity REIT as 12.0% of the product of (a) the equity market capitalization of the Managed Equity REIT, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, on the last trading day of the year immediately prior to the relevant measurement period and (b) the amount, expressed as a percentage, by which the Managed Equity REIT’s total return per share, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, exceeded the applicable benchmark total return per share, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, of a specified REIT index identified in the applicable business management agreement for the measurement period, as adjusted for net share issuances during the period and subject to caps on the values of the incentive fees. The measurement period for the annual incentive business management fees is defined as the three year period ending on December 31 of the year for which such fee is being calculated.
We did not earn incentive business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs for calendar years 2023 or 2022.
Other Management Agreements
We earn management fees by providing continuous services pursuant to the management agreements with ABP Trust regarding AlerisLife; with Sonesta and until May 15, 2023, with TA; equal to 0.6% of: (i) in the case of AlerisLife, AlerisLife’s revenues from all sources reportable under GAAP, less any revenues reportable by AlerisLife with respect to properties for which it provides management services, plus the gross revenues at those properties determined in accordance with GAAP; (ii) in the case of Sonesta, Sonesta’s revenues from all sources reportable under GAAP, less any revenues reportable by Sonesta with respect to hotels for which it provides management services, plus the gross revenues at those hotels determined in accordance with GAAP; and (iii) in the case of TA, the sum of TA’s gross fuel margin, as defined in the applicable agreement, plus TA’s total nonfuel revenues. These management fees are estimated and payable in cash monthly in advance.
We also earn management fees from certain other Private Capital clients based on a percentage of average invested capital, as defined in the applicable management agreements. These management fees are payable in cash monthly in arrears.
We earned aggregate base business management fees from TA and the Private Capital clients of $6,682 and $10,578 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Property Management Agreements
We earn property management fees by providing continuous services pursuant to property management agreements with the Managed Equity REITs, SEVN, RMR Residential and certain Private Capital clients. We generally earn fees under these agreements between 2.5% to 3.5% of gross collected rents. Also, under the terms of the property management agreements, we receive additional fees for construction supervision services up to 5.0% of the cost of such construction. In addition, we earn fees under our RMR Residential property management agreements for providing certain marketing, information technology and other management services, as defined in the applicable management agreements, which are included in management services revenue in our condensed consolidated financial statements. These management fees are payable in cash monthly in arrears.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we earned aggregate property management fees of $16,862 and $16,597, respectively, including construction supervision fees of $5,271 and $5,686, respectively.
Management Agreements with Advisory Clients
Tremont is primarily compensated pursuant to its management agreement with SEVN at an annual rate of 1.5% of equity, as defined in the applicable agreement. Tremont may also earn an incentive fee under its management agreement with SEVN equal to the difference between: (a) the product of (i) 20% and (ii) the difference between (A) core earnings, as defined in the
12

The RMR Group Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
agreement, for the most recent 12 month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of the incentive fee is being made, and (B) the product of (1) equity in the most recent 12 month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of the incentive fee is being made, and (2) 7% per year and (b) the sum of any incentive fees paid to Tremont with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12 month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters preceding the applicable period, if applicable). No incentive fee shall be payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless core earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters in the aggregate is greater than zero. The incentive fee may not be less than zero. Tremont earned incentive fees from SEVN of $299 for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Tremont did not earn incentive fees from SEVN for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
We earned advisory services revenue of $1,125 and $1,091 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Reimbursable Costs
We determined we control the services provided by third parties for certain of our clients and therefore account for the cost of these services and the related reimbursement revenue on a gross basis.
Reimbursable Compensation and Benefits Reimbursable compensation and benefits include reimbursements, at cost, that arise primarily from services our employees provide pursuant to our property management agreements at the properties of our clients. A significant portion of these compensation and benefits are charged or passed through to and paid by tenants of our clients. We recognize the revenue for reimbursements when we incur the related reimbursable compensation and benefits expense on behalf of our clients.
Reimbursable Equity Based Compensation Reimbursable equity based compensation includes awards of common shares by our clients directly to certain of our officers and employees in connection with the provision of management services to those clients. The revenue in respect of each award is based on the fair value as of the award date for those shares that have vested, with subsequent changes in the fair value of the unvested awards being recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income over the requisite service periods. We record an equal, offsetting amount as equity based compensation expense for the value of these awards.
Other Reimbursable Expenses Other reimbursable expenses include reimbursements that arise from services we provide pursuant to our property management agreements, which include third party costs related to matters such as maintenance and repairs, development costs, security and cleaning services, a significant portion of which are charged or passed through to and paid by tenants of our clients.
Note 5. Equity Method Investments
Seven Hills Realty Trust
As of December 31, 2023, Tremont owned 1,708,058, or approximately 11.5%, of SEVN’s outstanding common shares. We account for our investment in SEVN using the equity method of accounting because we are deemed to exert significant influence, but not control, over SEVN’s most significant activities. We elected the fair value option to account for our equity method investment in SEVN and determine fair value using the closing price of SEVN’s common shares as of the end of the period, which is a Level 1 fair value input. The aggregate market value of our investment in SEVN as of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, based on quoted market prices, was $22,102 and $18,651, respectively. The unrealized gain in our condensed consolidated statements of income related to our investment in SEVN was $4,049 and $376 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We received distributions from SEVN of $598 and $427 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
TravelCenters of America Inc.
Until BP acquired TA on May 15, 2023, we owned 621,853, or approximately 4.1%, of TA’s outstanding common shares, that had a cost of $13,701. We previously accounted for our investment in TA using the equity method of accounting because we were deemed to exert significant influence, but not control, over TA’s most significant activities. Under the fair value option, we determined fair value using the closing price of TA’s common shares as of the end of the period, which was a Level 1 fair value input, and recorded changes in fair value in earnings in our condensed consolidated statements of income. We

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
recorded a loss in our consolidated statements of income related to our investment in TA of $5,690 for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
Note 6. Income Taxes
We are the sole managing member of RMR LLC. We are a corporation subject to U.S. federal and state income tax with respect to our allocable share of any taxable income of RMR LLC and its tax consolidated subsidiaries. RMR LLC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, RMR LLC is generally not subject to U.S. federal and most state income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by RMR LLC is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including RMR Inc. and ABP Trust, based on each member’s respective ownership percentage.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized estimated income tax expense of $2,638 and $2,484, respectively, which includes $1,701 and $1,820, respectively, of U.S. federal income tax and $937 and $664, respectively, of state income taxes.
A reconciliation of the statutory income tax rate to the effective tax rate is as follows:
Three Months Ended December 31,
20232022
Income taxes computed at the federal statutory rate21.0 %21.0 %
State taxes, net of federal benefit2.8 %3.1 %
Permanent items0.6 %0.7 %
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest(9.9)%(9.9)%
Total14.5 %14.9 %
ASC 740, Income Taxes, provides a model for how a company should recognize, measure and present in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken with respect to all open years and in all significant jurisdictions. Pursuant to this topic, we recognize a tax benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that a particular tax position will be sustained upon examination or audit. To the extent the “more likely than not” standard has been satisfied, the benefit associated with a tax position is measured as the largest amount that is greater than 50.0% likely to be realized upon settlement. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we had no uncertain tax positions.
Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, the fair values of our financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, amounts due from related parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses and reimbursable accounts payable and accrued expenses, were not materially different from their carrying values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments. As of December 31, 2023, the fair value of our mortgage note payable approximated its fair value as of the Acquisition Date.
On a recurring basis, we measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value based upon quoted market prices. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to inputs from unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, or Level 1, the lowest priority to unobservable inputs, or Level 3, and significant other observable inputs, or Level 2. A financial asset’s or financial liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Leases
As of December 31, 2023, RMR LLC leased from ABP Trust and certain Managed Equity REITs office space for use as our headquarters and local offices. We incurred rental expense under related party leases aggregating $1,307 and $1,433 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Tax-Related Payments
Pursuant to our tax receivable agreement with ABP Trust, RMR Inc. pays to ABP Trust 85.0% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that RMR Inc. realizes as a result of (a) the increases in tax basis attributable to RMR Inc.’s dealings with ABP Trust and (b) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed to be paid by RMR Inc. as a result of the tax receivable agreement. As of December 31, 2023, our condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects a liability related to the tax receivable agreement of $23,229, including $2,343 classified as a current liability in accounts payable and accrued expenses that we expect to pay to ABP Trust during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024.
Under the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC is also required to make certain pro rata distributions to each member of RMR LLC quarterly on the basis of the estimated tax liabilities of its members, estimated quarterly, subject to future adjustment based on actual results. For the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, RMR LLC made required quarterly tax distributions to holders of its membership units totaling $8,662 and $8,094, respectively, of which $4,560 and $4,255, respectively, was distributed to us and $4,102 and $3,839, respectively, was distributed to ABP Trust. The amounts distributed to us were eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements, and the amounts distributed to ABP Trust were recorded as a reduction of its noncontrolling interest. We used funds from these distributions to pay certain of our U.S. federal and state income tax liabilities and to pay part of our obligations under the tax receivable agreement.
Separation Arrangements
We enter into retirement agreements with certain of our former executive officers. Pursuant to these agreements, we make various cash payments and accelerate the vesting of unvested shares of RMR Inc. previously awarded to these retiring officers.
17

The RMR Group Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
We also enter into separation arrangements from time to time with executive and nonexecutive officers and employees of ours. All costs associated with separation arrangements, for which there remain no substantive performance obligations, are recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of income as separation costs.
RMR LLC entered into a letter agreement, or the Retirement Agreement, dated November 15, 2023, with Jennifer Francis, a former Executive Vice President of RMR LLC. Ms. Francis also served as president and chief executive officer and was a managing trustee of DHC. Ms. Francis resigned as our Executive Vice President, effective December 31, 2023, and will continue to serve as a managing trustee of DHC until the earlier of (i) the DHC 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, (ii) July 1, 2024 or (iii) as requested by RMR LLC or the board of trustees of DHC. In addition, Ms. Francis will continue to serve as an employee of RMR LLC until July 1, 2024, or the Retirement Date. Pursuant to the Retirement Agreement, RMR LLC paid Ms. Francis her current cash salary compensation through December 31, 2023 and is paying her $10 per month from January 1, 2024 until the Retirement Date. In addition, RMR LLC agreed to pay Ms. Francis a combined cash payment in the amount of $2,250 with half of that amount paid on January 31, 2024 and the other half expected to be paid on or about August 1, 2024, subject to her execution of a customary release. Pursuant to the Retirement Agreement, RMR LLC agreed to recommend that the Company’s Compensation Committee approve the acceleration of vesting of Ms. Francis’ unvested shares of the Company, effective as of the Retirement Date. The Retirement Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including confidentiality, non-solicitation, and other covenants and a waiver and release.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized separation costs of $3,544 and $438, respectively, including cash separation costs of $3,446 and $380, respectively, and equity based separation costs of $98 and $58, respectively.
Note 9. Shareholders’ Equity
We award our Class A common stock, or Class A Common Shares, to our Directors, officers and employees under the Amended and Restated 2016 Omnibus Equity Plan, or the 2016 Plan. Director share awards vest immediately. Officer and employee share awards vest in five equal, consecutive, annual installments, with the first installment vesting on the date of award. We recognize forfeitures as they occur. Compensation expense related to share awards is determined based on the market value of our shares on the date of award, with the aggregate value of the awarded shares amortized to expense over the related vesting period. Expense recognized for Director share awards are included in general and administrative expenses and expense recognized for officer and employee share awards are included in equity based compensation in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
Equity based compensation expense related to shares awarded to certain officers and employees was $502 and $561 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we had 199,460 unvested shares outstanding which are scheduled to vest as follows: 71,620 shares in 2024, 59,140 shares in 2025, 44,760 shares in 2026 and 23,940 in 2027.
In connection with the vesting and issuance of awards of our Class A Common Shares to our Directors, officers and employees, we provide for the ability to repurchase our Class A Common Shares to satisfy tax withholding and payment obligations for those eligible to do so. The repurchase price is based on the closing price of our Class A Common Shares on the date of repurchase. The aggregate value of 492 Class A Common Shares repurchased during the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $12, which is recorded as a decrease to additional paid in capital included in shareholders’ equity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In connection with the issuances and repurchases of our Class A Common Shares, and as required by the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC concurrently issues or acquires an identical number of Class A Units from RMR Inc.

On January 11, 2024, we declared a quarterly dividend on our Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares to our shareholders of record as of January 22, 2024, in the amount of $0.40 per Class A Common Share and Class B-1 Common Share, or $6,683. This dividend will be partially funded by a distribution from RMR LLC to holders of its membership units in the amount of $0.32 per unit, or $10,147, of which $5,347 will be distributed to us based on our aggregate ownership of 16,708,723 membership units of RMR LLC and $4,800 will be distributed to ABP Trust based on its ownership of 15,000,000 membership units of RMR LLC. The remainder of this dividend will be funded with cash accumulated at RMR Inc. We expect to pay this dividend on or about February 15, 2024.
Note 10. Per Common Share Amounts
We calculate basic earnings per share using the two-class method. Unvested Class A Common Shares awarded to our employees are deemed participating securities for purposes of calculating basic earnings per common share because they have dividend rights. Under the two-class method, we allocate earnings proportionately to vested Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares outstanding and unvested Class A Common Shares outstanding for the period. Accordingly, earnings attributable to unvested Class A Common Shares are excluded from basic earnings per share under the two-class method. Our Class B-2 common stock of RMR Inc., or Class B-2 Common Shares, which are paired with ABP Trust’s Class A Units, have no independent economic interest in RMR Inc. and thus are not included as common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic earnings per common share.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method for unvested Class A Common Shares and the if-converted method for Class B-2 Common Shares. The 15,000,000 Class A Units that we do not own may be redeemed for our Class A Common Shares on a one-for-one basis, or upon such redemption, we may elect to pay cash instead of issuing Class A Common Shares. Upon redemption of a Class A Unit, the Class B-2 Common Share “paired” with such unit is canceled for no additional consideration. In computing the dilutive effect, if any, the assumed redemption would have on earnings per share, we considered net income available to holders of our Class A Common Shares would increase due to elimination of the

Acquisition of MPC Partnership Holdings LLC
On December 19, 2023, we completed our acquisition of MPC (now known as RMR Residential), a vertically integrated residential platform. This acquisition further advances our strategic focus on continuing to grow our private capital business, adding approximately $5.5 billion in assets under management, over 20 new institutional relationships and the potential to make in excess of $3.0 billion of additional residential investments. This acquisition also allows us to further diversify our revenue sources, to enter the only major commercial real estate sector in which we did not have a significant presence, and brings infrastructure and digital marketing capabilities that may be leveraged across our platform.
Business Environment and Outlook
The continuation and growth of our business depends upon our ability to operate the Managed Equity REITs, our private capital clients and SEVN so as to maintain, grow and increase the value of their businesses, to assist AlerisLife and Sonesta to grow their businesses and operate profitably, and to successfully expand our business through the execution of new business ventures and additional investments, such as our recently completed acquisition of MPC. Our business and the businesses of our clients generally follow the business cycle of the U.S. real estate industry, but with certain property type and regional geographic variations. Typically, as the general U.S. economy expands, commercial real estate occupancies increase and new real estate development occurs; new development frequently leads to increased real estate supply and reduced occupancies; and then the cycle repeats. These general trends can be impacted by property type characteristics or regional factors; for example, demographic factors such as the aging U.S. population, the growth of e-commerce retail sales or net population migration across different geographic regions can slow, accelerate, overwhelm or otherwise impact general cyclical trends. Because of such multiple factors, we believe it is often possible to grow real estate based businesses in selected property types or geographic areas despite general national trends.
Beyond general real estate industry trends, we also take into account general economic factors impacting our clients. More specifically, in the U.S., the Federal Reserve has increased the federal funds rate multiple times since the beginning of calendar 2022 in an attempt to slow inflation, contributing to macroeconomic uncertainty and market volatility in the U.S. and in the commercial real estate markets. Increased borrowing costs and concerns of a possible or pending economic recession have resulted in an overall decline in commercial real estate transactions. Additionally, concerns about the capital adequacy and liquidity of the banking sector caused by the bank failures in 2023, as well as stricter lending standards, have resulted in decreased lending activity from traditional sources such as banks and life insurance companies and may negatively impact the businesses of our clients and our clients' tenants. Rising or sustained high interest rates also adversely impact our clients with floating rate debt, which they, in some instances, attempt to address with interest rate caps and other strategic actions to reduce leverage. Further, while the Federal Reserve is looking to slow inflation, its efforts may not be successful or fully achieve targeted results and they may take longer to achieve. The impact of rising costs, both for goods and services, insurance and human capital, are impacting us and our clients and we and our clients are continuing to implement mitigation strategies to minimize the impact of increased costs on our and our clients’ earnings, where possible.
Both we and our clients consider industry and general economic factors and attempt to take advantage of opportunities when they arise. For example: (i) since March 2020, ILPT and DHC have completed several joint venture transactions with institutional investors and subsequently grown some of those ventures by acquiring additional properties; (ii) SVC transitioned over 200 hotels from other hotel operators to Sonesta, which on March 17, 2021, completed its acquisition of RLH Corporation, establishing it as one of the largest hotel companies in the U.S. and expanding its franchising capabilities; and (iii) on February 25, 2022, ILPT completed its acquisition of 126 new, Class A, single tenant, net leased, e-commerce focused industrial properties as a result of its acquisition of Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation, or MNR, in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $4.0 billion. More recently, on December 19, 2023, we completed our previously announced agreement to acquire 100% of the equity interest in MPC for total consideration of $99,021, which added residential capabilities to RMR LLC. In addition, we balance our pursuit of growth of our and our clients’ businesses by executing, on behalf of our clients, prudent capital recycling or business arrangement restructurings in an attempt to help our clients prudently manage
22

leverage and increased operating costs. We also look to reposition their portfolios and businesses when circumstances warrant such changes or when other more desirable opportunities are identified.
Managed Equity REITs
The base business management fees we earn from the Managed Equity REITs are calculated monthly in accordance with the applicable business management agreement and are based on a percentage of the lower of (i) the average historical cost of each REIT’s properties and (ii) each REIT’s average market capitalization. The property management fees we earn from the Managed Equity REITs are principally based on a percentage of the gross rents collected at certain managed properties owned by the Managed Equity REITs, excluding rents or other revenues from hotels, travel centers, senior living properties and wellness centers, which are separately managed by AlerisLife, Sonesta or a third party. Also under the terms of the property management agreements, we receive construction supervision fees in connection with certain construction activities undertaken at the properties owned by the Managed Equity REITs based on a percentage of the cost of such construction. For further information regarding the fees we earn, see Note 4, Revenue Recognition, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The following table presents for each Managed Equity REIT a summary of its primary strategy and the lesser of the historical cost of its assets under management and its market capitalization as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, as applicable:

A Managed Equity REIT’s historical cost of assets under management includes the real estate it owns and its consolidated assets invested directly or indirectly in equity interests in or loans secured by real estate and personal property owned in connection with such real estate (including acquisition related costs which may be allocated to intangibles or are unallocated), all before reserves for depreciation, amortization, impairment charges or bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves. A Managed Equity REIT’s average market capitalization includes the average value of the Managed Equity REIT’s outstanding common equity value during the period, plus the daily weighted average of each of the aggregate liquidation preference of preferred shares and the principal amount of consolidated indebtedness during the period. The table above presents for each Managed Equity REIT, the lesser of the historical cost of its assets under management and its market capitalization as of the end of each period.
The basis on which our base business management fees are calculated for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 may differ from the basis at the end of the periods presented in the table above. As of December 31, 2023, the market capitalization was lower than the historical cost of assets under management for each of the Managed Equity REITs; the historical cost of assets under management for DHC, ILPT, OPI and SVC as of December 31, 2023, were $7,592,879, $5,692,675, $6,019,588 and $11,329,283, respectively.

Other Clients
We provide business management services to AlerisLife, Sonesta and until May 15, 2023, TA. AlerisLife operates senior living communities throughout the U.S., many of which are owned by and managed for DHC. Sonesta manages and franchises hotels, resorts and cruise ships in the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean and the Middle East; many of the U.S. hotels that Sonesta operates are owned by SVC. TA operates, leases and franchises travel centers along the U.S. interstate highway system, many of which are owned by SVC, and standalone truck service facilities. Generally, our fees earned from business management services to AlerisLife, Sonesta and until May 15, 2023, TA, are based on a percentage of certain revenues. In connection with BP’s acquisition of TA on May 15, 2023, TA terminated its business management agreement with us and in accordance with its terms paid us the applicable termination fee of $45,282.
In addition, we also provide management services to certain other Private Capital clients, including high-quality institutional investors relationships we assumed as part of our MPC acquisition, and earn fees based on a percentage of average invested capital, as defined in the applicable agreements, property management fees based on a percentage of rents collected from managed properties and construction supervision fees based on a percentage of the cost of construction activities. The recent MPC acquisition also provides us the potential to generate promote fees on any new co-investments in the future.
Our management fee revenues from services to these clients for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, are set forth in the following tables:

Management services revenue. Management services revenue decreased $3,454 primarily due to declines in management fees earned from TA of $4,191 as a result of the termination of its business management agreement with us on May 15, 2023, partially offset by growth in management services revenue of $714 related to our acquisition of MPC in the current period.
Incentive fees revenue. Incentive fees for the 2024 fiscal period include an incentive fee of $299 earned by Tremont from SEVN. For further information about these fees, see Note 4, Revenue Recognition, and Note 8, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Advisory services revenue. Advisory services revenue was relatively unchanged from the prior period.
26

Reimbursable compensation and benefits. Reimbursable compensation and benefits include reimbursements, at cost, that arise primarily from services our employees provide pursuant to our property management agreements at the properties of our clients. A significant portion of these compensation and benefits are charged or passed through to and paid by tenants of our clients. Reimbursable compensation and benefits increased $2,505 primarily due to annual merit increases that were effective October 1, 2023.
Reimbursable equity based compensation. Reimbursable equity based compensation includes awards of common shares by our clients directly to certain of our officers and employees in connection with the provision of management services to those clients. We record an equal, offsetting amount as equity based compensation expense for the value of these awards. Reimbursable equity based compensation revenue increased $38 primarily as a result of increases in certain of our clients’ respective share prices.
Other reimbursable expenses. For further information about these reimbursements, see Note 4, Revenue Recognition, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Compensation and benefits. Compensation and benefits consist of employee salaries and other employment related costs, including health insurance expenses and contributions related to our employee retirement plan. Compensation and benefits expense increased $1,508 primarily due to annual merit increases that were effective October 1, 2023.
Equity based compensation. Equity based compensation consists of the value of vested shares awarded to certain of our employees under our and our clients’ equity compensation plans. Equity based compensation was relatively unchanged from the prior period.
Separation costs. Separation costs consist of employment termination costs. For further information about these costs, see Note 8, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist of office related expenses, information technology related expenses, employee training, travel, professional services expenses, director compensation and other administrative expenses. General and administrative costs increased $348 primarily due to increases in third party costs related to our expanded role in construction oversight.
Transaction and acquisition related costs. Transaction and acquisition related costs in the 2024 fiscal period primarily represent costs associated with our acquisition of MPC on December 19, 2023.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $155 primarily due to amortization of acquisition related intangible assets of $122 in the current period.
Interest income. Interest income increased $1,738 primarily due to higher interest earned during the 2024 fiscal period primarily as a result of higher interest rates and higher average cash balances invested compared to the prior period.
Gain (loss) on equity method investments. Gain (loss) on equity method investments represents the unrealized and realized gains or losses on our investments in SEVN and TA common shares. For further information, see Note 5, Investments, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Income tax expense. The increase in income tax expense of $154 is primarily attributable to higher taxable income for the 2024 fiscal period compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Our current assets have historically been comprised predominantly of cash, cash equivalents and receivables for business management, property management and advisory services fees. As of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $202,428 and $267,989, respectively, of which $30,260 and $26,802, respectively, was held by RMR Inc., with the remainder being held at RMR LLC. Cash and cash equivalents include all short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. As of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, $191,486 and $265,800, respectively, of our cash and cash equivalents were invested in money market bank accounts. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents leave us well positioned to pursue a range of capital allocation strategies, with a focus on the growth of our private capital business, to fund our operations and enhance our technology infrastructure, in the next twelve months.
27

On December 19, 2023, we completed our acquisition of MPC for total cash consideration of $84,474. We are also obligated to pay the Earnout, if earned, which we currently estimate at $14,547 and which will be payable over the next three years, based on our current expectations for the deployment of capital remaining in investment funds managed by MPC prior to the end of such fund’s investment period. In addition to the Earnout, we agreed to pay Retention Payments to certain employees of MPC in an aggregate amount of $4,200 for their continued employment through December 31, 2025.
Our liquidity is highly dependent upon our receipt of fees from the businesses that we manage. Historically, we have funded our working capital needs with cash generated from our operating activities and we currently do not maintain any credit facilities. We expect that our future working capital needs will relate largely to our operating expenses, primarily consisting of employee compensation and benefits costs, our obligation to make quarterly tax distributions to the members of RMR LLC, our plan to make quarterly distributions on our Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares and our plan to pay quarterly distributions to the members of RMR LLC in connection with the quarterly dividends to RMR Inc. shareholders. Our management fees are typically payable to us within 30 days of the end of each month or, in the case of annual incentive business management fees earned from the Managed Equity REITs, if any, within 30 days following each calendar year end. Quarterly incentive fees earned from SEVN, if any, are payable generally within 30 days following the end of the applicable quarter. Historically, we have not experienced losses on collection of our fees and have not recorded any allowances for bad debts.
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we paid cash distributions to the holders of our Class A Common Shares, Class B-1 Common Shares and to the other owner of RMR LLC membership units in the aggregate amount of $11,484. On January 11, 2024, we declared a quarterly dividend on our Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares to our shareholders of record as of January 22, 2024 in the amount of $0.40 per Class A Common Share and Class B-1 Common Share, or $6,683. This dividend will be partially funded by a distribution from RMR LLC to holders of its membership units in the amount of $0.32 per unit, or $10,147, of which $5,347 will be distributed to us based on our aggregate ownership of 16,708,723 membership units of RMR LLC and $4,800 will be distributed to ABP Trust based on its ownership of 15,000,000 membership units of RMR LLC. The remainder of this dividend will be funded with cash accumulated at RMR Inc. We expect the total dividend will amount to approximately $11,483 and we expect to pay this dividend on or about February 15, 2024. See Note 9, Shareholders’ Equity, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding these distributions.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, pursuant to the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC made required quarterly tax distributions to its holders of its membership units totaling $8,662, of which $4,560 was distributed to us and $4,102 was distributed to ABP Trust, based on each membership unit holder’s then respective ownership percentage in RMR LLC. The $4,560 distributed to us was eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the $4,102 distributed to ABP Trust was recorded as a reduction of its noncontrolling interest. We expect to use a portion of these funds distributed to us to pay our tax liabilities and amounts due under the tax receivable agreement described in Note 8, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We expect to use the remaining funds distributed to us to fund our long-term tax liabilities and pay dividends.
Cash Flows
The $1,831 increase in net cash from operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the prior period reflects favorable changes in working capital and increases in net income. The $78,977 increase in net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the prior period was due to our acquisition of MPC in the current fiscal period. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was relatively unchanged compared to the prior period.
As of December 31, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or that we expect would be reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Tax Receivable Agreement
We are party to a tax receivable agreement which provides for the payment by RMR Inc. to ABP Trust of 85.0% of the amount of savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that RMR Inc. realizes as a result of (a) the increases in tax basis attributable to RMR Inc.’s dealings with ABP Trust and (b) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed to be paid by it as a result of the tax receivable agreement. See Note 8, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Business—Our Organizational Structure—tax receivable agreement” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September
28

30, 2019. As of December 31, 2023, our condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects a liability related to the tax receivable agreement of $23,229, of which we expect to pay $2,343 to ABP Trust during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024. 
Market Risk and Credit Risk
We have not invested in derivative instruments, borrowed through issuing debt securities or transacted in foreign currencies. As a result, we are not subject to significant direct market risk related to interest rate changes, changes to the market standard for determining interest rates, commodity price changes or credit risks; however, if any of these risks were to negatively impact our clients’ businesses or market capitalization, our revenues would likely decline. To the extent we change our approach on the foregoing activities, or engage in other activities, our market and credit risks could change. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our 2023 Annual Report for the risks to us and our clients.
Risks Related to Cash and Short Term Investments
Our cash and cash equivalents include short term, highly liquid investments readily convertible to known amounts of cash that have original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. We invest a substantial amount of our cash in money market bank accounts. The majority of our cash is maintained in U.S. bank accounts. Some U.S. bank account balances exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. We believe our cash and short term investments are not subject to any material interest rate risk, equity price risk, credit risk or other market risk.
Related Person Transactions
We have relationships and historical and continuing transactions with Adam D. Portnoy, the Chair of our Board and one of our Managing Directors, as well as our clients. For further information about these and other such relationships and related person transactions, please see Note 8, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our 2023 Annual Report, our definitive Proxy Statement for our 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and our other filings with the SEC. In addition, see the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our 2023 Annual Report for a description of risks that may arise as a result of these and other related person transactions and relationships. We may engage in additional transactions with related persons, including businesses to which RMR LLC or its subsidiaries provide management services.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in our 2023 Annual Report. In addition to the critical accounting estimates identified in our 2023 Annual Report, the estimation of fair values represents a critical accounting estimate in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The estimation of fair value involves a significant level of judgment and estimation uncertainty, and actual results could be materially different and have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
We accounted for the Acquisition as a business combination. We used estimates and assumptions to assign fair values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including intangible assets. Determining the fair value of intangible assets requires us to use estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, expected future cash inflows and outflows, useful lives, discount rates and income tax rates. Fair values were determined based on estimates and assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that could materially affect the accuracy of such estimates, assumptions or actual results.
The fair value of our Earnout liability was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model and is inherently uncertain. Inputs into the model require estimates and assumptions regarding the timing and deployment of future capital, the historical volatility of similar market transactions, and discount rates and credit ratings for companies similar to ours. The Earnout liability is remeasured on a quarterly basis and changes to our estimates and assumptions are likely to have a significant impact on the fair value estimate of the Earnout liability. In addition, actual payments required under the Earnout may differ significantly from our estimates and could have a material impact to our results of operations and financial condition.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Quantitative and Qualitative disclosures about market risk are set forth above in “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation—Market Risk and Credit Risk.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
On December 19, 2023, we completed the acquisition of MPC. We are in the process of integrating MPC into our systems and control environment as of September 30, 2024. For further information regarding this acquisition, see Note 3. Acquisition of MPC Partnership Holdings LLC, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Subject to the foregoing, no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
