Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Significant accounting policies and practices Significant accounting policies and practices
(a)Nature of operations
Lineage, Inc. together with its subsidiaries (individually or collectively as the context requires, the “Company”) is a global temperature-controlled warehouse real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with a modern and strategically located network of temperature-controlled warehouses. The Company offers a broad range of essential warehousing services and integrated solutions for a variety of customers with complex requirements in the food supply chain. The Company's primary business is temperature-controlled warehousing, and the Company owns and operates the majority of its facilities. The Company provides customers with storage space, as well as handling and other warehousing services. The Company may rent to a customer an entire warehouse, a set amount of reserved space in a warehouse for a set term, or non-exclusive space in a warehouse pursuant to a storage agreement. In addition, the Company operates several critical and value-add temperature-controlled business lines within its integrated solutions business, including, among others, transportation and refrigerated rail car leasing. Lineage Logistics Holdings, LLC (“LLH”) is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary. Bay Grove Management Company, LLC (“Bay Grove Management”), an affiliate of Bay Grove Capital, LLC (“Bay Grove Capital”), provides LLH operating support pursuant to an operating services agreement.
On July 26, 2024, the Company closed its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 56,882,051 shares of its common stock at a price of $78.00 per share, with a subsequent exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase from the Company an additional 8,532,307 shares of common stock that closed on July 31, 2024. Refer to Note 20, Subsequent events for a further description of the related impacts.
(b)Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements include all adjustments, which consist of normal, recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lineage, Inc. consolidated with the accounts of all subsidiaries and affiliates in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest as of the financial statement date. The operating results for the interim periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s prospectus dated July 24, 2024, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on July 26, 2024 (the “Prospectus”) in connection with the Company’s IPO.
The Company consolidates a voting interest entity (“VOE”) in which it has a controlling financial interest and a variable interest entity (“VIE”) if it possesses both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect its economic performance, and (a) is obligated to absorb the losses that could be significant to the VIE or (b) holds the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any VIEs.
(c)Use of estimates in preparation of financial statements
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the financial statement date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The Company bases its estimates on various factors and information which may include, but are not limited to, history and prior experience, expected future results, new related events, and economic conditions, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
(d)Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a contractual restriction on sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The ASU also requires additional disclosures surrounding equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2024. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
(e)Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require that an entity disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, disclose an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of the amount’s composition, and provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Segment Reporting, in interim periods. The amendments also require that an entity disclose the title and position of the CODM with an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and making resource allocation decisions. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is still evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU amends existing income tax disclosure guidance, primarily requiring more detailed disclosure for income taxes paid and the effective tax rate reconciliation. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is still evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the SEC adopted new rules that will require registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The rules require information about a registrant's climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations, or financial condition. The required information about climate-related risks will also include disclosure of a registrant's greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the rules will require registrants to present certain climate-related financial metrics in their audited financial statements. Some portions of the new rules will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning in calendar year 2025 and some in 2026. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the implementation of these rules, pending resolution of judicial review. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the rule changes on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interests and Similar Awards. This ASU clarifies the application of ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, to profits interests and similar instruments by providing illustrative examples of the proper accounting for such awards. The ASU does not contain changes to the application of the previously existing accounting guidance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect this ASU to have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements because the Company’s accounting for profits interests and similar instruments conforms to the clarified guidance.
(f)Accounts receivable and Notes receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are stated net of estimated allowances for uncollectible balances. Notes receivable primarily consist of amounts that are due and payable related to a variety of unique Company transactions. The current portion of notes receivable is recorded in Accounts receivable, net and the non-current portion is recorded in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The current portion of notes receivable was $5 million and $6 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The non-current portion of notes receivable was $3 million and $20 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Allowances for uncollectible balances are reserved based on expected credit losses. Management exercises judgement in establishing these allowances and considers the balance outstanding and payment history. The Company writes off receivables against the allowances after all reasonable collection efforts are exhausted. The Company’s allowance for accounts receivable was $7 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(g)Investments in partially owned entities
The Company accounts for its investments in partially owned entities where the Company does not have a controlling interest but has significant influence using the equity method of accounting, under which the net income of the entity is recognized in income and presented in Equity method investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Allocations of profits and losses are made per the terms of the organizational documents. The Company’s ownership percentages in such investments range from 9.0% to 50.0%.
The Company has committed to invest up to a total of $108 million in its equity method investment Emergent Cold LatAm Holdings, LLC (“LatAm”). The Company has contributed a total of $83 million to date, of which the Company invested $8 million and $13 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $6 million and $21 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The Company has an option to purchase the remaining equity interests in LatAm during a period beginning on the third anniversary and expiring on the sixth anniversary of its initial investment date, which was July 2021.
The Company has interests in partially owned entities where the Company does not have a controlling interest or significant influence. These investments do not have readily determinable fair values, and the Company has elected the measurement alternative to measure these investments at cost less impairment, adjusted by observable price changes, with any fair value changes recognized in earnings. Refer to Note 12, Fair value measurements for additional information. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying amount of these investments was $30 million and is presented in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2024, all outstanding common shares of the Company were held by BG Lineage Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BGLH”). The Company is the managing member of Lineage OP, LP, formerly known as Lineage OP, LLC (“Lineage OP” or the “Operating Partnership”) and owns a controlling financial interest in Lineage OP. Lineage OP holds all direct interests in LLH other than certain interests held by LLH MGMT Profits, LLC (“LLH MGMT”), LLH MGMT Profits II, LLC (“LLH MGMT II”), and BG Maverick, LLC (“BG Maverick”).
Lineage, Inc. capital structure
(a)Common Stock
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 161,749,791 and 162,017,515 common shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company redeemed shares of its common stock as authorized by its Board of Directors (“Board”). Any redeemed shares are constructively retired and returned to an unissued status. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company redeemed a total of 254,680 shares at an average cost of $98.37 per share for a total cost of $25 million. During the six months ended
June 30, 2023, the Company redeemed a total of 37,037 shares at an average cost of $90.00 per share for a total cost of $3 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, no shares were redeemed.
Operating Partnership capital structure
The Operating Partnership has three classes of equity: Class A, Class B, and Class C units. A summary of these ownership interests as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is as follows:
June 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Class A units owned by Lineage, Inc.161,749,791 162,017,515 
Class A & B units owned by Non-Company LPs19,709,540 18,829,959 
Redeemable Class A units owned by Non-Company LPs319,006 1,260,182 
Total181,778,337 182,107,656 
Class C units are excluded from the above summary because their only claim on the underlying assets of the Operating Partnership is the distribution described below.
Noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership relates to the interest in the Operating Partnership owned by Non-Company LPs.
(b)Noncontrolling Interest in Operating Partnership - Class A, Class B, and Class C
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Non-Company LPs owned 10.8% and 10.3% of the outstanding Class A and Class B units of the Operating Partnership, respectively, excluding the redeemable Operating Partnership units described below. Class A and Class B units are both voting capital interests in the Operating Partnership and are similar to each other in all material respects, except that Class A units held by Non-Company LPs bear a Founders Equity Share (as described below) payable to Class C unit holders, whereas Class B units do not.
BG Cold, LLC (“BG Cold”), an affiliate of Bay Grove Management, holds all outstanding Class C units of the Operating Partnership. Class C units provide BG Cold the right to receive a percentage distribution (“Founders Equity Share”) upon certain distributions made to Non-Company LPs who hold Class A units of the Operating Partnership. Class C units also receive a distribution upon certain repurchases and redemptions of Class A units of the Operating Partnership held by Non-Company LPs. The calculation of the Founders Equity Share borne by Class A units in the Operating Partnership held by Non-Company LPs varies depending on the sub-class of Class A units but generally amounts to a percentage of all value appreciation over certain thresholds. On a quarterly basis, BG Cold also receives an advance distribution (“Advance Distribution”) against its future Founders Equity Share based on a formulaic amount of all capital contributed to the Operating Partnership after August 3, 2020. This Advance Distribution is an advance on the Class C Founders Equity Share to be paid upon the sale, redemption, liquidation of, or other distributions to, Class A units and would offset subsequent Class C unit Founders Equity Share distributions paid in conjunction with a hypothetical sale, redemption, liquidation, or other distribution.
BG Cold received a total of $12 million and $23 million in Advance Distributions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. BG Cold received a total of $12 million and $23 million in Advance Distributions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
(c)Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests - Operating Partnership Units
In connection with the acquisition of Cherry Hill Joliet, LLC, 279 Marquette Drive, LLC, Joliet Cold Storage, LLC, and Bolingbrook Cold Storage, LLC (collectively, “JCS”) in 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement with the sellers of JCS. Under the terms of the agreement, the sellers acquired 941,176 Class A units of the Operating Partnership, and the sellers had a one-time right as of February 1, 2024 to put all, or a portion of, the units for cash. These units were accounted for as Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the
condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity due to the put right held by the sellers. Upon the exercise of the put right, the price to be paid for the redeemable noncontrolling interests was the current fair market value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, subject to a minimum price (“floor”) equivalent to $97 million if the put right was exercised for all the units. Any redemption also required a distribution of any accrued but unpaid Founders Equity Share through the date of redemption, and the required accretion adjustments related to these units included the impact of the Founders Equity Share.
On February 1, 2024, one of the holders of these units elected to exercise their redemption rights for 61,593 of these units in exchange for total proceeds of $6 million. As a result of the partial redemption, BG Cold received a distribution of $1 million in respect of Founders Equity Share. The holders waived their redemption rights for their remaining 879,583 units, and the units remained outstanding, which resulted in a reclassification of the redeemable noncontrolling interest to noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. The difference between the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest and the ASC 810 carrying value for the remaining noncontrolling interest was recognized in Additional paid-in capital - common stock in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity.
LLH Capital Structure
The Operating Partnership owns all outstanding equity interests of LLH except for those held by LLH MGMT, LLH MGMT II, and BG Maverick. Certain subsidiaries of LLH have also issued equity interests to third parties. All of these equity interests are accounted for as Noncontrolling interests in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity.
(d)Noncontrolling Interests in Other Consolidated Subsidiaries
Noncontrolling interests in Other Consolidated Subsidiaries include entities other than the Operating Partnership in which the Company has a controlling interest but which are not wholly owned by the Company. Third parties own the following interests in the below Other Consolidated Subsidiaries:
June 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Cool Port Oakland Holdings, LLC13.3 %13.3 %
Lineage Jiuheng Logistics (HK) Group Company Ltd.40.0 %40.0 %
Kloosterboer BLG Coldstore GmbH49.0 %49.0 %
Turvo India Pvt. Ltd.1.0 %1.0 %
In addition to the third-party interests detailed above, Noncontrolling interests in Other Consolidated Subsidiaries also include Series A Preferred shares issued by each of the Company’s REIT subsidiaries to third-party investors. Each REIT subsidiary has issued Series A Preferred shares, which are non-voting shares that have a $1,000 liquidation preference and a cumulative 12.0% per annum dividend preference. The REIT subsidiary Series A Preferred shares may be redeemed at the Company’s option for consideration equal to $1,000 plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to and including the date fixed for redemption and are not convertible or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Company.
The Company’s REIT subsidiaries had an aggregate amount of 373 Series A preferred shares held by third parties outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(e)Management Profits Interests Class C units
The Company grants interests in LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II to certain members of management. LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II hold all outstanding Class C units in LLH (“Management Profits Interests Class C units”). Management Profits Interests Class C units entitle LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II, and, by extension,
certain members of management, to a formulaic amount of the profits of LLH, generally based on the growth of the Company’s share price over a certain threshold, subject to certain adjustments.
On certain occasions, the Company offers a repurchase opportunity for certain Management Profits Interests Class C units by offering cash settlement to repurchase units at their current fair market value. Certain Management Profits Interests Class C units were redeemed in exchange for a cash total of $10 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. No such redemptions occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023 or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. In the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity, the carrying value of the redeemed units is recorded as a reduction of Noncontrolling interests, while the excess of the redemption payments over the carrying value of the redeemed units is recorded as a reduction of Additional paid-in capital - common stock.
(f)Convertible Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests - Preference Shares
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company recorded net redeemable noncontrolling interest adjustments, representing the effect of foreign currency on the carrying amount and accrued dividends payable. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 2,214,553 Preference Shares outstanding. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the ending redeemable noncontrolling interest balance of $225 million and $221 million, respectively, represents the maximum redemption value of the Preference Shares.
Below is a summary of all activity for the Company’s redeemable noncontrolling interests during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, which are discussed in further detail above.

The Company has no material warranties or obligations for allowances, refunds, or other similar obligations. As a practical expedient, the Company does not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component, as the period between the transfer of service to the customer and the receipt of customer payment is less than a year.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $984 million of remaining unsatisfied performance obligations from contracts with customers subject to a non-cancellable term and within contracts that have an original expected duration exceeding
one year. These obligations also do not include variable consideration beyond the non-cancellable term, which, due to the inability to quantify by estimate, is fully constrained. The Company expects to recognize 20.9% of these remaining performance obligations as revenue over the next 12 months and the remaining 79.1% to be recognized over a weighted average period of 9.9 years through 2043.
Accounts receivable balances related to contracts with customers were $818 million and $805 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Deferred revenue balances related to contracts with customers were $82 million and $93 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Substantially all revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balances at the beginning of 2024 has been recognized as of June 30, 2024 and represents revenue from the satisfaction of storage and handling services billed in advance.

(a)Entrepôt du Nord
On February 1, 2024, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity of Entrepôt du Nord Inc. and 2957-8002 Quebec Inc. (collectively “EDN”) through a share purchase agreement for $60 million in cash consideration. EDN owns and operates a temperature controlled warehouse facility near Montreal in Quebec, Canada. Inclusive of measurement period adjustments, the Company has preliminarily assigned the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including $36 million of property, plant, and equipment, $19 million of customer relationships intangible assets, $1 million of cash, $1 million of net working capital assets, $12 million of deferred tax liabilities, and $15 million of goodwill. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments relating to updated fair value estimates of acquired property, plant, and equipment, customer relationships intangible assets, and deferred income tax liabilities, which resulted in a $7 million decrease to goodwill.
The goodwill associated with this acquisition is primarily attributable to the strategic benefits of strengthening the Company’s warehousing network in Canada and is attributable to the Company’s Global Warehousing segment. The goodwill associated with this acquisition is not amortizable for income tax purposes.

Income taxes Income taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes is based upon an estimated annual tax rate for the year applied to U.S. federal, U.S. state, and foreign income. Significant discrete items that are not consistent from period to period are recorded to Income tax expense (benefit) in the quarter in which they occur.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was (9.6%) and 2.3%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was 0.0% and (37.5%), respectively. The annual effective tax rates differ from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the Company operating as a real estate investment trust (REIT) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the differences in tax rates at which foreign income is taxed, and certain nondeductible expenses, income tax credits, and changes in valuation allowance.

The Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A had an original maturity of December 22, 2024 and December 22, 2025, respectively. The Credit Agreement became unsecured with an amendment on August 20, 2021.
Effective February 15, 2024, the Company amended and restated the Credit Agreement, increasing the Company’s borrowing capacity under the existing Revolving Credit Facility from $2,625 million to $3,500 million. The amendment also resulted in a pay down of $875 million on the Term Loan A using funds available on the Revolving Credit Facility. After the amendment, the remaining outstanding balance on the Term Loan A is $1,000 million. Additionally, the amendment gives the Company the right to increase the size of the existing Term Loan A, add one or more incremental term loans, and/or increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, up to $500 million, which would increase the total aggregate commitment amount of the existing Credit Agreement to $5,000 million. The amended maturity dates for the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A are February 15, 2028 and February 15, 2029, respectively. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Revolving Credit Facility may be extended through two six-month extension options that can be exercised if certain conditions are met.
In connection with the February 2024 refinancing of the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred total fees and expenses of $34 million, of which $31 million was capitalized as deferred financing costs, $2 million was recognized as an immediate loss on extinguishment of debt, and $1 million was recognized in General and administrative expense as third-party costs related to a debt modification. Of the capitalized $31 million in deferred financing costs, $26 million related to the Revolving Credit Facility and $5 million related to the Term Loan A, which are presented in Other assets and Long-term debt, net, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company
recognized an additional $5 million in loss on extinguishment of debt related to unamortized deferred financing costs for the portions of the Credit Agreement determined to be extinguished.

There were $67 million in letters of credit issued on the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company has the ability to issue up to $100 million as letters of credit.
On June 25, 2024, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to include two new syndicate lenders. Apart from the addition of these lenders, there were no significant changes to the total loan amounts, terms, or conditions of the Credit Agreement.
ii.Delayed-draw term loan facility
On February 15, 2024, the Company entered into an unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility (“DDTL”) with a borrowing capacity of up to $2,400 million. The involved parties, in addition to the Company, included a syndicate of banks, financial institutions, and other entities, with notable participants being JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) also acting as the administrative agent, and Wells Fargo Securities LLC also acting as a syndication agent. Under this facility, the full commitment was available for borrowing in a single drawing during the period commencing on the closing date and ending on May 10, 2024. In addition, the Company has the right to increase the size of the DDTL, up to $500 million, which would increase the total aggregate commitment amount to $2,900 million.
On April 9, 2024, the Company drew $2,400 million under the DDTL.
The DDTL matures on February 14, 2025. The DDTL may be extended through a twelve-month extension option that can be exercised if certain conditions are met and an extension fee of 0.3% is paid.
The agreement permits prepayments of principal, in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty. There are also additional instances outlined that would trigger a mandatory principal prepayment under specified events. The Company is required to prepay the principal using the entire aggregate net cash proceeds from any issuance or offering of common or preferred equity securities through an underwritten public offering in which the equity interests of the
Company are listed on a nationally-recognized stock exchange or a generally offered equity raise, or other specified events which had not occurred as of June 30, 2024.
On or before December 31, 2024, the Company must repay outstanding DDTL balances in an amount equal to at least 20.0% of the aggregate principal amount borrowed on the initial funding date.
Term loan borrowings under the DDTL facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR plus 0.1% (or “Adjusted Term SOFR”), plus the applicable margin ranging from 1.6% to 2.2% based on the Company’s total leverage ratio. Based on the Company’s existing total leverage ratio, the interest rate expected to be in effect for the Company’s prospective DDTL borrowing is Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.6%. Interest is payable in arrears on a quarterly basis. In addition, the DDTL facility is subject to a commitment fee of 0.2% on the average daily unused amount of the facility commitment.
In connection with the execution of the DDTL, the Company incurred and capitalized fees and expenses of $9 million as deferred financing costs. The DDTL capitalized deferred financing costs are presented in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(b)Unsecured Notes
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the total balance of $1,686 million and $1,708 million, respectively, was comprised of a series of USD, Euro (“EUR”), and Great British pound (“GBP”) private placement financing instruments that are fixed-rate guaranteed, unsecured senior notes. The notes bear interest at rates between 0.89% and 3.74% and have maturities between August 2026 and August 2032.
(c)Secured Debt
As of June 30, 2024, the total balance of $1,840 million was comprised of an adjustable rate multi-property loan agreement (“CMBS 5”) in the amount of $1,298 million (due in November 2024 with a one-year extension option), three secured promissory notes with MetLife Real Estate Lending LLC (the “Metlife Real Estate Notes”) totaling $473 million (due in 2026, 2028, and 2029), and $69 million of other fixed-rate real estate and equipment secured financing agreements with various lenders maturing between 2024 and 2044.

ii.MetLife Real Estate Lending LLC - Cool Port Oakland
On March 25, 2019, the Company entered into a loan agreement with MetLife Real Estate Lending LLC in the amount of $81 million.
On February 6, 2024, the Company entered into a new $81 million loan agreement with MetLife Real Estate Lending LLC, designed as a refinancing arrangement, with a maturity date of March 5, 2029.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative instruments and hedging activities Derivative instruments and hedging activities
(a)Risk management objective of using derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, foreign currency, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and with the use of derivative financial instruments.
(b)Cash flow hedges of interest rate and foreign currency risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and to mitigate the potential volatility to interest expense. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for a premium. The Company’s designated interest rate swaps and caps hedge variable-rate interest payments using a first payments approach. The first payments approach allows an entity to hedge interest payments on a designated principal amount, rather than a specific, named debt issuance. Refer to Note 9, Debt for additional information.
In addition, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future cash amounts due to changes in foreign currency rates.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair value measurements Fair value measurements
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying amount of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, were representative of their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities exchanged in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs include directly or indirectly observable inputs (other than Level 1 inputs), such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities exchanged in active or inactive markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities exchanged in inactive markets, other inputs that may be considered in fair value determinations of these assets or liabilities, such as interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default
rates, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Pricing evaluations generally reflect discounted expected future cash flows, which incorporate yield curves for instruments with similar characteristics, such as credit ratings, estimated durations, and yields for other instruments of the issuer or entities in the same industry sector.
Level 3 – Inputs include unobservable inputs used in the measurement of assets and liabilities. Management is required to use its own assumptions regarding unobservable inputs because there is little, if any, market activity in the assets or liabilities and it may be unable to corroborate the related observable inputs. Unobservable inputs require management to make certain projections and assumptions about the information that would be used by market participants in valuing assets or liabilities.
The following table presents the fair value hierarchy levels of the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value:
(in millions)Fair Value HierarchyJune 30, 2024December 31, 2023

__________________
(1) The investments in equity securities carried at fair value are subject to transfer restrictions and generally cannot be sold without consent.
(2) The carrying value of long-term debt is disclosed in Note 9, Debt.
The Company is required to measure certain assets and liabilities at estimated fair value from time to time. These fair value measurements typically result from the application of specific accounting pronouncements under GAAP and are considered non-recurring fair value measurements.
In accordance with GAAP, the Company has elected to remeasure investments without readily determinable fair values only when an observable transaction occurs for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded non-recurring fair value adjustments related to certain other investments without readily determinable fair values totaling $1 million, which is included within Other nonoperating income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). No such transactions were observed during the three months ended June 30, 2024, or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
The Company’s long-term debt is reported at the aggregate principal amount less unamortized deferred financing costs and any above or below market adjustments (as required in purchase accounting) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For instruments with no prepayment option, the fair value is estimated utilizing a discounted cash flow model where the contractual cash flows (i.e., coupon and principal repayments) were discounted at a risk-adjusted yield reflective of both the time value of money and the credit risk inherent in each instrument. For instruments that include a prior-to-maturity prepayment option, the fair value is estimated using a Black-Derman-Toy lattice model. The inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s debt instruments are comprised of Level 2 inputs, including risk-free interest rates, credit ratings, and financial metrics for comparable publicly listed companies, and Level 3 inputs, such as risk-adjusted credit spreads based on adjusted yields implied at issuance, and yield volatility (used for instruments with a prepayment option).

The Pre-IPO Incentive Award Plan is administered by the Board and provides for the award of restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”), performance share awards, Long-Term Incentive Plan unit awards of the Operating Partnership, stock options, stock appreciation rights, and other incentive awards, each as defined in the Pre-IPO Incentive Award Plan, to eligible employees, consultants, and members of the Board. See Note 20, Subsequent events for updates concerning the Company’s July 2024 IPO.
Time-based restricted stock unit awards
Under the Pre-IPO Incentive Award Plan, certain employees were granted interests in the Company in the form of time-based RSUs covering shares of the Company’s common stock. These time-based RSUs vest over a one to three year time period provided that the recipient remains employed by the Company through the applicable vesting date, subject to acceleration of vesting in the event of the recipient’s death, disability, or termination by the Company without cause. The Company measures these time-based RSUs at fair value as of the grant date based on the price of units issued to third-party investors in arms’ length transactions in connection with BGLH and Operating Partnership capital raising activities. The Company recognizes stock‑based compensation expense over the applicable vesting term. The Company accounts for these units as equity-based awards.
Stock-based compensation expense related to time-based RSUs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1 million. There was no stock-based compensation expense related to time-based RSUs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, there was $2 million of unrecognized noncash compensation cost related to unvested time-based RSUs that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2 years.
The following represents a summary of these RSUs:

Legacy Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Legacy Stock-Based Compensation Plans were authorized prior to the Pre-IPO Incentive Award Plan. The Legacy Stock-Based Compensation Plan include BGLH Restricted Class B units, Management Profits Interests Class C units, and LLH Value Creation Unit Plan units.
(a)BGLH Restricted Class B units
Certain members of management and certain non-employee directors were granted interests in BGLH in the form of restricted Class B Units (“BGLH Restricted Units”). The Company fair values these BGLH Restricted Units as of the grant date based on the price of substantially similar units issued to third-party investors in arms’ length transactions in connection with other BGLH capital raising activities. The Company recognizes stock‑based compensation expense over the vesting term. The Company accounts for these units as equity-based awards.
Stock-based compensation expense related to BGLH Restricted Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $3 million and $6 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense related to BGLH Restricted Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $3 million and $6 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, there was $5 million of unrecognized noncash compensation cost related to unvested BGLH Restricted Units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of less than one year.
The following represents a summary of these units:

(b)Management Profits Interests Class C units
LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II interests were issued to members of management in the form of Management Profits Interests Class C units. These profits interests generally vest over a three to five year time period, with the number of units vested based partially on meeting certain financial targets of the Company or individual performance metrics.
Stock-based compensation related to Management Profits Interests Class C units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $2 million and $4 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation related to Management Profits Interests Class C units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2 million and $4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, there was $9 million of unrecognized noncash compensation cost related to unvested Class C units to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1 year.

(c)LLH Value Creation Unit Plan units
Certain employees have been granted notional units under the LLH Value Creation Unit Plan (the “2015 LVCP”) in the form of appreciation rights that vest over a period of four years and upon the occurrence of a liquidity event. This plan covered awards from 2015 to 2020. A new LLH Value Creation Unit Plan was established in 2021 (the “2021 LVCP”) that generally provides for the grant of similar appreciation rights that may also vest without the occurrence of a liquidity event if the Company achieves the target value as specified in the award agreements.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the cumulative unrecognized stock compensation expense related to the units issued pursuant to the 2015 LVCP and 2021 LVCP was $34 million and $37 million, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]  
Commitment and contingencies Commitments and contingencies
(a)Self‑insured risks
The Company is self‑insured for workers’ compensation costs, with the Company’s workers’ compensation plan having an individual claim stop‑loss deductible of $1 million. Self‑insurance liabilities are determined by third-party actuaries. The Company has established restricted cash accounts with banks or directly with the insurers or letters of credit that are collateral for its self‑insured workers’ compensation obligations. The combined amount included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities relating to workers’ compensation liabilities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $47 million and $40 million, respectively. The liability represents the gross amount excluding amounts receivable from the insurers. The total included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets related to the receivables from insurers as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $12 million and $11 million, respectively.
The Company is also self‑insured for a portion of employee medical costs. The Company has a medical plan with a retained deductible.

The total included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities relating to medical liabilities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $16 million and $15 million, respectively.
(b)Legal and regulatory proceedings
The Company, from time to time and in the normal course of business, is party to various claims, lawsuits, arbitrations, and regulatory actions (collectively, “Claims”). In particular, as the result of numerous ongoing construction activities, the Company may be a party to construction and/or contractor related liens and claims, including mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens. The Company is also party to various Claims relating to commercial disagreements with customers or suppliers. Additionally, given the Company’s substantial workforce, and, in particular, its warehouse related workforce, the Company is party to various labor and employment related Claims, including, without limitation, Claims related to workers’ compensation, wage and hour, discrimination, and related matters. Finally, given the Company’s business of warehousing refrigerated food products and its utilization of anhydrous ammonia for its refrigeration systems
(a known hazardous material), the Company is subject to the jurisdiction of various U.S. regulatory agencies, including, without limitation, the Department of Agriculture, Food and Drug Administration, Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), Department of Justice, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and various other agencies in the locations in which the Company operates. Management of the Company believes the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
(c)Environmental matters
The Company is subject to a wide range of environmental laws and regulations in each of the locations in which the Company operates. Compliance with these requirements can involve significant capital and operating costs. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in civil or criminal fines or sanctions, claims for environmental damages, remediation obligations, the revocation of environmental permits, or restrictions on the Company’s operations.
The Company records accruals for environmental matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated based on current law and existing technologies. The Company adjusts these accruals periodically as assessment and remediation efforts progress or as additional technical or legal information become available. The Company has recorded nominal environmental liabilities in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company believes it is in compliance with applicable environmental regulations in all material respects. Under various U.S. federal, state, and local environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the entire cost of investigating, removing, and/or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on such property. Such laws often impose liability, whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the contamination. Even if more than one person may have been responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the environmental laws may be held responsible for the entire clean-up cost. There are no material unrecorded liabilities as of the periods ended June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Most of the Company’s warehouses utilize anhydrous ammonia as a refrigerant. Anhydrous ammonia is classified as a hazardous chemical regulated by the EPA and various other agencies in the locations in which the Company operates, and an accident or significant release of anhydrous ammonia from a warehouse could result in injuries, loss of life, and property damage.
(d)Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)
The Company’s warehouses located in the U.S. are subject to regulation under OSHA, which requires employers to provide employees with an environment free from hazards, such as exposure to toxic chemicals, excessive noise levels, mechanical dangers, heat or cold stress, and unsanitary conditions. The cost of complying with OSHA and similar laws enacted by states and other jurisdictions in which the Company operates can be substantial, and any failure to comply with these regulations could expose the Company to substantial penalties and/or liabilities to employees who may be injured at the Company’s warehouses. The Company records accruals for OSHA matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all OSHA regulations in all material respects and that no material unrecorded liabilities exist as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(e)Statesville, North Carolina
On January 10, 2020, contractors and subcontractors were working on the blast cells at the Company’s freezer warehouse in Statesville, North Carolina when an incident occurred triggering the release of anhydrous ammonia at the facility, resulting in the death of a subcontractor and injury to another subcontractor, as well as damage to customers’ goods. Litigation is ongoing with respect to this incident, and while the Company believes it has a strong defense to any potential claims, the Company could be subject to losses in unknown amounts. The Company believes the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. No material costs have been incurred in relation to this matter.
(f)Kennewick, Washington warehouse fire
On April 21, 2024, a fire occurred at the Company’s warehouse in Kennewick, Washington, destroying the building and customer inventories. No employees or other parties were injured. The Company expects all repair, replacement, and clean-up costs to be covered by its insurance policies, excluding any deductibles and self-insured retentions. To date, the Company has not received any claims for customer inventories losses. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded income from expected insurance recoveries of $32 million, which represents the amount of insurance reimbursement up to the carrying value of the impaired assets of $24 million and $9 million of clean-up costs, net of $1 million deductible expense. The net loss of $1 million is presented in Restructuring, impairment, and (gain) loss on disposals in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $32 million insurance receivable, presented in Accounts receivable, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Subsequently to June 30, 2024, the Company has collected the entire insurance receivable in cash.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings (loss) per share Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders of the Company by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders of the Company by the weighted average
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the reporting period. A reconciliation of the basic and diluted EPS is as follows:
Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions, except per share amounts)2024202320242023
Earnings (loss) per share - basic and diluted:

Net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders - basic and diluted$(0.46)$(0.08)$(0.73)$(0.04)
The Company’s potential dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, as they are antidilutive and the effect would be to increase the net earnings (or decrease the net loss) per share. Therefore, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is the same.
The Company’s potential common share equivalents as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
As of March 1, 2025 the sellers of MTC Logistics may elect to receive any combination of cash or Operating Partnership units that equal the excess of $34 million over the fair market value of the units issued to the sellers in the MTC Logistics acquisition. The Operating Partnership Units that could be issued in connection with this hypothetical election represent potential common share equivalents.
The holder of the Preference Shares issued by a subsidiary of LLH in connection with the Company’s acquisition of 100.0% of the outstanding equity interests in Kloosterboer Group B.V. and its subsidiaries (“Kloosterboer”) in October 2021 has conversion rights to convert the Preference Shares to Operating Partnership units or common stock of the Company, depending on whether or not certain events have occurred. The Operating Partnership units or common stock of the Company that could be issued in connection with a hypothetical conversion represent potential common share equivalents.
As described in Note 14, Stock-based compensation, certain members of management were granted time-based RSUs during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Time-based RSUs that are unvested as of June 30, 2024 represent potential common share equivalents because upon vesting, the Company will issue common shares to the awardee.
As described in Note 14, Stock-based compensation, certain members of management and certain non-employees have been granted BGLH Restricted Units. BGLH Restricted Units that are unvested as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 represent potential common share equivalents because upon vesting, the Company will have outstanding common shares issued to BGLH.
As described in Note 14, Stock-based compensation, certain members of management have been granted Management Profits Interests Class C units in LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II. These Class C Units in LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II that are unvested as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 represent potential common share
equivalents because upon vesting, they will be able to share in the profits of the Company, as defined in the LLH MGMT and LLH MGMT II operating agreements. Because the Class C Units do not yet share in distributions, the potential units would not be allocated any undistributed earnings for basic and diluted EPS calculations.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]  
Subsequent events Subsequent events
On July 26, 2024, the Company closed its IPO of 56,882,051 shares of its common stock at a price of $78.00 per share, with a subsequent exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase from the Company an additional 8,532,307 shares of common stock that closed on July 31, 2024. The net proceeds to the Company from the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, were $4,875 million. Prior to and upon consummation of the offering, the Company engaged in the following formation and other transactions:
(a)Capital structure and noncontrolling interests
In exchange for cash proceeds of $1 million, Lineage, Inc. redeemed all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which represents $1,000 per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon.
The Operating Partnership converted to a Maryland limited partnership and its Agreement of Limited Partnership was executed concurrently, along with a Unit Designation for Legacy Units of the Operating Partnership. All Class A units in the Operating Partnership held by Lineage, Inc. were reclassified into common units of the Operating Partnership (“Partnership Common Units”) and Series A Preferred Units. The pre-existing Class A, Class B, and Class C units of the Operating Partnership that were held by non-Company LPs described in Note 2, Capital structure and noncontrolling interests were reclassified into Legacy Units of the Partnership (“Legacy OP Units”). Legacy OP Units carry forward pre-existing rights of the Non-Company LPs, which enables BG Cold to continue accruing Founders Equity Share and the holders of a limited number of Class A units of the Operating Partnership with special redemption and/or top-up rights to maintain those rights. All Legacy OP Units will ultimately be exchanged for Partnership Common Units over a period of up to three years following the initial closing of the IPO, which may in turn be redeemed at the request of the holder thereof. Upon a holder’s request for such redemption, the Company has the discretion to redeem Partnership Common Units for shares of Lineage, Inc.’s common stock or cash.
The Ninth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of LLH was executed, which created a new form of interest in LLH called an LLH Operating Partnership Equivalent Unit (“OPEU”). OPEUs are capital interests in LLH that allow their holders to share in the profits of LLH on a pari-passu basis with the Operating Partnership. BG Maverick, LLC (“BG Maverick”) held all Class D interests in LLH prior to the IPO, which entitled the holder to a formulaic distribution of profits of LLH. The payment of this distribution in respect of these interests was contingent upon the occurrence of a liquidity event, which was deemed to take place with the IPO. Upon the completion of its IPO, the Company recorded a liability of $184 million due to BG Maverick in respect of its Class D interests. Such Class D interests were subsequently reclassified as OPEUs. In addition, in connection with the termination of the operating services agreement described below, BG Maverick’s Class D distribution rights were increased by $200 million. This cumulative liability was settled partially in the form of a reimbursement to Lineage of previous Advance Distributions paid by the Company as described in Note 2, Capital structure and noncontrolling interests, which reduced the liability to $186 million. This remaining liability was reclassified into OPEUs held by BG Maverick. Following these transactions, BG Maverick held 2,447,990 OPEUs. Immediately after the reclassification of the Class D interests into the OPEUs, LLH repurchased 986,492 OPEUs in exchange for cash proceeds of $75 million. The remaining 1,461,148 OPEUs represent a noncontrolling interest in the consolidated financial statements of Lineage, Inc.
In connection with the IPO, the seller in the Kloosterboer acquisition (“Kloosterboer Co-Investor”) (holders of Convertible Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests - Preference Shares) had the right to convert the preference shares into securities that track the economic performance of certain Operating Partnership interests. The Kloosterboer Co-Investor did not exercise this right. As a result, upon the completion of the IPO, the redeemable noncontrolling interest recognized in the consolidated financial statements of Lineage, Inc. was reclassified into a liability.
The Company and the Operating Partnership exchanged all outstanding vested Management Profits Interests Class C units for a combination of less than 80,950 shares of Lineage, Inc. common stock and 2,204,162 Legacy Class B Units of the Operating Partnership.
(b)Debt
On July 26, 2024, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the IPO to repay in full the remaining outstanding DDTL principal balance of $2,400 million, along with $7 million in accrued interest and fees. As a result of the full repayment, the Company will record a $6 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs previously capitalized for the DDTL.
On July 30, 2024, Moody’s Ratings assigned a first-time Baa2 issuer rating to the Company, with a stable outlook. On August 6, 2024, Fitch Ratings assigned a first-time BBB+ issuer rating to the Company, with a stable outlook. These assigned ratings qualified as an investment grade rating event under the terms of the Credit Agreement and allowed the Company to elect the contractual interest rate margin to be based on the Company’s debt rating instead of the total leverage ratio, effective August 1, 2024, which reduced the RCF and TLA interest rate from Adjusted Term SOFR + 1.60% to Adjusted Term SOFR +1.05%. Upon receipt of the Fitch Rating, the RCF and TLA interest rate was further reduced to Adjusted Term SOFR + 0.925%.
On August 9, 2024, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the IPO to repay in full the remaining outstanding CMBS 5 principal balance of $1,298 million, along with $8 million in accrued interest and fees. As a result of the full repayment, the Company will record a $4 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs previously capitalized for the CMBS 5.
Through August 9, 2024, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the IPO to make net repayments on the RCF of $822 million.
(c)Stock-based compensation
The Pre-IPO Incentive Award Plan described in further detail in Note 14, Stock-based compensation was amended and restated in connection with the IPO (the “Incentive Award Plan”). The Incentive Award Plan increased the maximum number of shares of common stock which can be issued under the plan from 1,000,000 to 12,500,000, and specifies that awards of Long-Term Incentive Plan units (“LTIP Units”) count as shares for the purpose of the share limit under the Incentive Award Plan. LTIP Units are a special class of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership which may be issued to eligible participants.
Upon the adoption of the Incentive Award Plan, the Company granted the following awards to plan participants:
(1)Stock payment awards of 215,149 shares of the Company’s common stock as one-time bonuses in connection with the IPO.
(2)Stock payment awards of 179,838 shares of the Company’s common stock in settlement of their vested LVCP units.
(3)654,690 time-vesting RSUs as replacements of unvested LLH Value Creation Plan units that were unvested at the IPO and LLH Value Creation Plan units that did not have any value.
(4)291,511 time-vesting RSUs as part of the annual equity award program.
(5)1,066,763 time-vesting RSUs or LTIP Units as replacements of unvested Management Profits Interest Class C units and vested Management Profits Interest Class C units that held no intrinsic value.
(6)498,691 time-based LTIP Units as annual equity awards.
Stock payment awards contain no ongoing vesting requirements and stock-based compensation expense for such awards is recorded immediately. The Company will recognize stock-based compensation expense for time-based RSUs and time-based LTIP Units over their respective vesting terms.
Vesting for all unvested BGLH Restricted Units was accelerated in connection with the IPO, resulting in stock-based compensation expense of $5 million.
All unvested Management Profits Interest Class C units were canceled, and holders of such awards were granted replacement time-based RSUs, or time-based LTIP Unit awards. Holders of unvested Management Profits Interest Class C units and Management Profits Interest Class C units that were vested but held no intrinsic value were replaced with time-based RSUs.
As described in Note 14, Stock-based compensation, no stock-based compensation expense was recorded associated with the outstanding LLH Value Creation Plan units prior to the IPO. Upon the consummation of the IPO, the qualifying liquidity event vesting criteria was met for certain awards and such awards fully vested, resulting in stock-based compensation expense and a corresponding liability of $26 million. This liability was immediately settled by either issuing stock payment awards or paying cash to the holders of such vested LLH Value Creation Plan units. All unvested LLH Value Creation Plan units were canceled upon the consummation of the IPO, and holders of such awards received time-based RSUs as replacement awards. Additionally, holders of vested LLH Value Creation Plan units that did not have any value because the Lineage, Inc. stock price was not greater than the threshold specified in their award also received time-based RSU awards.
(d)Related-party balances
The Company terminated the operating services agreement (i.e., operating, consulting, strategic development, and financial services) it had between LLH and Bay Grove Management. Additionally, LLH entered into a transition services agreement with Bay Grove Management. Under this agreement, Bay Grove Management will provide certain transition services to support capital deployment and mergers and acquisitions activity for the three years following the IPO in exchange for annual consideration of $8 million, paid in equal quarterly installments.
(e)Rollover Holder Put Option
Rollover equity in the form of BGLH units was previously issued as consideration in various business combinations. Some of those sellers who received rollover equity in BGLH were provided with separate classes of equity of BGLH that included special one-time redemption features with minimum value guarantees and/or the alternative option to elect cash or equity top-up rights to achieve a certain minimum equity valuation at a specified date (collectively, the “BGLH Guarantee Rights”). Prior to the IPO, the obligations in respect of the BGLH Guarantee Rights resided with BGLH.
In connection with the IPO, Lineage, Inc. has agreed to provide successive repurchase rights and cash and equity top-up rights to the rollover equity holders that mirror those given by BGLH to its investors (the “Rollover Holder Put Option”). Pursuant to the Rollover Holder Put Option, BGLH has the right to (i) distribute (in various installments from September 2024 through December 2025 (the “Rollover Holder Put Exercise Window”) up to 2,036,738 shares of our common stock to its investors holding BGLH Guarantee Rights, and such investors have the individual right to cause Lineage to purchase any or all of such shares of our common stock distributed to such persons by BGLH for an amount equal to the guaranteed minimum value intrinsic to the BGLH Guarantee Rights (at a guaranteed minimum price or, in some cases, if greater, the then-current fair market value of the shares of our common stock), which amounts differ for different such investors, or (ii) in some cases demand a top-up, through a cash payment or through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock without
payment therefor, or any combination thereof, in the amount by which the guaranteed minimum value exceeds the then current fair market value of the shares of our common stock (if at all) at various specified times during the Rollover Holder Put Exercise Window.
The Rollover Holder Put Option represents a written put option on shares of Lineage, Inc. common stock, which the Company will account for as a separate, freestanding financial instrument from the shares of common stock underlying the option (the “Rollover Holder Put Option Liability”). Upon execution of the IPO, the Company recorded the Rollover Holder Put Option Liability at its fair value of $103 million, with a corresponding reduction in Retained earnings (accumulated deficit) attributable to BGLH.
On July 31, 2024, the Company purchased Luik Natie in Belgium for estimated maximum purchase price of $52 million, inclusive of possible contingent earn-out payments. The purpose of this acquisition is to expand the Company’s warehousing network in the port city of Antwerp-Bruges, Belgium and grow the related transportation and freight forwarding services in the region.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements include all adjustments, which consist of normal, recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lineage, Inc. consolidated with the accounts of all subsidiaries and affiliates in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest as of the financial statement date. The operating results for the interim periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s prospectus dated July 24, 2024, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on July 26, 2024 (the “Prospectus”) in connection with the Company’s IPO.
Principles of consolidation
The Company consolidates a voting interest entity (“VOE”) in which it has a controlling financial interest and a variable interest entity (“VIE”) if it possesses both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect its economic performance, and (a) is obligated to absorb the losses that could be significant to the VIE or (b) holds the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any VIEs.
Use of estimates in preparation of financial statements
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the financial statement date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The Company bases its estimates on various factors and information which may include, but are not limited to, history and prior experience, expected future results, new related events, and economic conditions, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements and Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a contractual restriction on sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The ASU also requires additional disclosures surrounding equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2024. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require that an entity disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, disclose an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of the amount’s composition, and provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Segment Reporting, in interim periods. The amendments also require that an entity disclose the title and position of the CODM with an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and making resource allocation decisions. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is still evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU amends existing income tax disclosure guidance, primarily requiring more detailed disclosure for income taxes paid and the effective tax rate reconciliation. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is still evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the SEC adopted new rules that will require registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The rules require information about a registrant's climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations, or financial condition. The required information about climate-related risks will also include disclosure of a registrant's greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the rules will require registrants to present certain climate-related financial metrics in their audited financial statements. Some portions of the new rules will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning in calendar year 2025 and some in 2026. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the implementation of these rules, pending resolution of judicial review. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the rule changes on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interests and Similar Awards. This ASU clarifies the application of ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, to profits interests and similar instruments by providing illustrative examples of the proper accounting for such awards. The ASU does not contain changes to the application of the previously existing accounting guidance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect this ASU to have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements because the Company’s accounting for profits interests and similar instruments conforms to the clarified guidance.
Accounts receivable and Notes receivable Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are stated net of estimated allowances for uncollectible balances. Notes receivable primarily consist of amounts that are due and payable related to a variety of unique Company transactions. The current portion of notes receivable is recorded in Accounts receivable, net and the non-current portion is recorded in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The current portion of notes receivable was $5 million and $6 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The non-current portion of notes receivable was $3 million and $20 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Allowances for uncollectible balances are reserved based on expected credit losses. Management exercises judgement in establishing these allowances and considers the balance outstanding and payment history. The Company writes off receivables against the allowances after all reasonable collection efforts are exhausted.
Investments in partially owned entities
The Company accounts for its investments in partially owned entities where the Company does not have a controlling interest but has significant influence using the equity method of accounting, under which the net income of the entity is recognized in income and presented in Equity method investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Allocations of profits and losses are made per the terms of the organizational documents. The Company’s ownership percentages in such investments range from 9.0% to 50.0%.
The Company has committed to invest up to a total of $108 million in its equity method investment Emergent Cold LatAm Holdings, LLC (“LatAm”). The Company has contributed a total of $83 million to date, of which the Company invested $8 million and $13 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $6 million and $21 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The Company has an option to purchase the remaining equity interests in LatAm during a period beginning on the third anniversary and expiring on the sixth anniversary of its initial investment date, which was July 2021.
The Company has interests in partially owned entities where the Company does not have a controlling interest or significant influence. These investments do not have readily determinable fair values, and the Company has elected the measurement alternative to measure these investments at cost less impairment, adjusted by observable price changes, with any fair value changes recognized in earnings.
