Excerpt from ASC 260-10-S99-2
If a registrant redeems its preferred stock, the SEC staff believes that the difference between (1) the fair value of the consideration transferred to the holders of the preferred stock and (2) the carrying amount of the preferred stock in the registrant’s balance sheet (net of issuance costs) should be subtracted from (or added to) net income to arrive at income available to common stockholders in the calculation of earnings per share. The SEC staff believes that the difference between the fair value of the consideration transferred to the holders of the preferred stock and the carrying amount of the preferred stock in the registrant’s balance sheet represents a return to (from) the preferred stockholder that should be treated in a manner similar to the treatment of dividends paid on preferred stock.

Excerpt from ASC 810-10-40-2
[If] the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock is not accounted for as a liability, then the entity’s acquisition of a subsidiary’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock shall be accounted for as a capital stock transaction. Accordingly, the consolidated entity would not recognize in its income statement any gain or loss from the acquisition of the subsidiary’s preferred stock.
Excerpt from ASC 810-10-40-2A
If mandatorily redeemable preferred stock is accounted for as a liability, then any amounts paid or to be paid to holders of those contracts in excess of the initial measurement amount are reflected as interest cost and not as noncontrolling interest charge. Topic 860 specifies whether a liability has been extinguished and Subtopic 470-50 requires that the parent recognize a gain or loss upon extinguishment of the subsidiary’s liability for mandatorily redeemable preferred shares for any difference between the carrying amount and the redemption amount.
