This note relates and discusses the financial reporting innovation in the 1990s by AirTouch Communications, Inc., a wireless telephone service provider. The innovation was intended to show the parent company’s proportionate ownership share of its subsidiaries’ and joint ventures’ operations, restating key figures from the income statement and operating cash flow. The author corresponded with AirTouch’s then chief financial officer (CFO) for an explanation of the reasoning behind the innovation. Another issue that this note addresses is the opinion given by the audit firm on supplemental disclosures that depart from GAAP.
