In 2000, Swiss Re and the shareholders of New California Holdings, Inc. entered into a put/call agreement for the acquisition of New California Holdings, Inc. by Swiss Re. The put/call agreement was considered a redeemable non-controlling interest, however, a value was not assigned to this instrument as the exercise was contingent on several items occurring to complete the transaction. During the second quarter of 2012, the majority of the contingencies had been resolved and the exercise of the put/call option at the predetermined price became probable. In accordance with US GAAP requirements, the difference between the carrying value of the minority interest and the redemption price, USD 132 million, was recorded against shareholders’ equity and as a reduction in the net income attributable to common shareholders for the purposes of calculating earnings per share.
