AHI Acquisition
Also on October 1, 2021, immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, GAHR III acquired a newly formed entity, American Healthcare Opps Holdings, LLC, or NewCo, which we refer to as the AHI Acquisition, pursuant to a contribution and exchange agreement dated June 23, 2021, or the Contribution Agreement, between GAHR III; our operating partnership; American Healthcare Investors, LLC, or AHI; Griffin Capital Company, LLC, or Griffin Capital; Platform Healthcare Investor T-II, LLC; Flaherty Trust; and Jeffrey T. Hanson, the non-executive Chairman of our board of directors, or our board, Danny Prosky, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and Mathieu B. Streiff, one of our directors, or collectively, the AHI Principals.NewCo owned substantially all of the business and operations of AHI, as well as all of the
equity interests in (i) Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV Advisor, LLC, or GAHR IV Advisor, a subsidiary of AHI that served as the external advisor of GAHR IV, and (ii) Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Advisor, LLC, or GAHR III Advisor, also referred to as our former advisor, a subsidiary of AHI that served as the external advisor of GAHR III.
Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, AHI contributed substantially all of its business and operations to the surviving partnership, including its interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor, and Griffin Capital contributed its then-current ownership interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor to the surviving partnership.

The AHI Acquisition was treated as a business combination for accounting purposes, with GAHR III as both the legal and accounting acquiror of NewCo.

On February 9, 2024, pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on Form S-11 (File No. 333-267464), as amended, we closed our underwritten public offering, or the 2024 Offering, through which we issued 64,400,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, for a total of $772,800,000 in gross offering proceeds. Such amounts include the exercise in full of the underwriters’ overallotment option to purchase up to an additional 8,400,000 shares of common stock.

On March 15, 2023, our board, at the recommendation of the audit committee of our board, which is comprised solely of independent directors, unanimously approved and established an updated estimated per share net asset value, or NAV, of our common stock of $31.40. We provide this updated estimated per share NAV annually to assist broker-dealers in connection with their obligations under Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, Rule 2231 with respect to customer account statements. The updated estimated per share NAV is based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, calculated as of December 31, 2022. The valuation was performed in accordance with the methodology provided in Practice Guideline 2013-01, Valuations of Publicly Registered Non-Listed REITs, issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives, or the IPA, in April 2013, in addition to guidance from the SEC. See our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2023 for more information on the methodologies and assumptions used to determine, and the limitations and risks of, our updated estimated per share NAV.
COVID-19
Our residents, tenants, operating partners and managers, our industry and the U.S. economy continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. While the COVID 19 pandemic is subsiding, the timing and extent of the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is dependent upon many factors, including the emergence and severity of COVID-19 variants, the effectiveness and frequency of booster vaccinations and the duration and implications of restrictions and safety measures. As the lasting effect of the COVID-19 pandemic is still impacting the healthcare system to a certain extent, it continues to present challenges for us as an owner and operator of healthcare facilities, making it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on real estate markets in which we own and/or operate properties and our portfolio of investments.
We have evaluated the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business thus far and incorporated information concerning such impacts into our assessments of liquidity, impairment and collectability from tenants and residents as of December 31, 2022. We will continue to monitor such impacts and will adjust our estimates and assumptions based on the best available information. For a further discussion of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business, see Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Business Objectives and Growth Strategies
Our business objectives are to grow our earnings and cash flows, maintain financial flexibility, increase the value of our portfolio, make regular cash distributions to our stockholders and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns through the following growth strategies:
•capture embedded growth from COVID-19 recovery through leasing and expense controls at our senior housing facilities, integrated senior health campuses and SNFs;
•external growth through disciplined and targeted acquisitions to expand our diversified portfolio;
•continue to develop integrated senior health campuses through experienced development partnerpartners (i.e., Trilogy); and
•provide sustained stability through consistent MOBoutpatient medical building performance with the opportunity for revenue growth driven by occupancy gains and improving mark-to-market lease spreads.spreads; and
•actively position our balance sheet for growth.
Investment Strategy
We have acquired, and may continue to acquire, properties either directly or jointly with third parties. We have disposed,parties and may continue to dispose,also consider disposing of, non-core properties from time to time to improve the quality of our portfoliooutright or in joint ventures. We also have originated and acquired, and may continue to originate or acquire, secured loans and other real estate-related investments on an infrequent and opportunistic basis.
We generally seek investments that produce current income; however, we have selectively developed, are currently developing (through Trilogy), and may continue to selectively develop, real estate properties. Our portfolio may include properties in various stages of development other than those producing current income. These stages include unimproved land both with and without entitlements and permits, property to be redeveloped and repositioned, newly constructed properties and properties in lease-up or other stabilization stages, all of which have limited or no relevant operating histories and current income. We make such investment determinations based upon a variety of factors, including the anticipated risk-adjusted returns for such properties when compared with other available properties, the appropriate diversification of theour portfolio and our objectives of realizing both current income and capital appreciation.
We seek to grow our earnings and cash flows, maintain financial flexibility, increase the value of our portfolio, make regular cash distributions and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders through the business objectives and growth strategies discussed above. In order to achieve these objectives, we may invest using a number of investment structures, which may include direct acquisitions, joint ventures, leveraged investments, issuing securities for property and direct and indirect
investments in real estate. In order to maintain our exemption from regulation as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the Investment Company Act, we may be required to limit our investments in certain types of real estate-related investments. See “Investment Company Act Considerations” below for a further discussion.
For each of our investments, regardless of property type, we seek to invest in properties with the following attributes:
•Strong Local Health Systems and Operating Partners. We seek to invest in properties that are associated with strong health systems and operators, that provide exceptional care, have dominant market share and/or are critical to the healthcare delivery system in the communities that they serve.
•Quality. We seek to acquire properties that are suitable for their intended use with a quality of construction that is capable of sustaining the property’s long-term investment potential, for the long-term, assuming funding of budgeted maintenance, repairs and capital improvements.
•Location. We seek to acquire properties that are located in established or otherwise appropriate markets, with access and visibility suitable to meet the needs of itstheir occupants. In addition to United States properties, we also may also seek to acquire international properties that meet our investment criteria.
•Market; Supply and Demand. We focus on local or regional markets that have potential for stable and growing property level cash flows overin the long-term.long term. These determinations are based in part on an evaluation of local and regional economic, demographic and regulatory factors affecting the property. For instance, we favor markets that indicate a growing population and employment base and markets that exhibit potential limitations on additions to supply, such as barriers to new construction. Barriers to new construction include lack of available land, stringent zoning restrictions and states where certificates of need are required. Conversely, we generally seek to limit our investments in areas that have limited potential for growth.
•Predictable Capital Needs. We seek to acquire properties where the future expected capital needs can be reasonably projected in a manner that would enable us to meet our objectives.
•Cash Flows. We seek to acquire properties where the current and projected cash flows, including the potential for appreciation in value, would enable us to maximize long-term stockholder value. We evaluate cash flows as well as expected growth and the potential for appreciation.
We are not limited as to the geographic areas where we may acquire properties. We are not specifically limited in the number or size of properties we may acquire or on the percentage of our assets that we may invest in a single property or investment. The number and mix of properties and real estate-related investments we will acquire will depend upon real estate and market conditions and other circumstances existing at the time we are acquiring our properties and making our investments and the amount of debt financing available.
Real Estate Investments
We generally seek investments that produce current income. We expect our real estate investments to include:
•MOBs;outpatient medical buildings;
•integrated senior health campuses;
•senior housing facilities;housing;
•SNFs; and
•healthcare-related facilities operated utilizing a RIDEA structure.
Our real estate investments may also include:
•hospitals;
•long-term acute care facilities;
•surgery centers;
•memory care facilities;
•specialty medical and diagnostic service facilities;
•laboratories and research facilities;
•pharmaceutical and medical supply manufacturing facilities; and
•offices leased to tenants in healthcare-related industries, including life sciences.
We generally seek to acquire real estate of the types described above that will best enable us to meet our investment objectives, taking into account, among other things, the diversification of our portfolio at the time, relevant real estate and financial factors, the location, the income-producing capacity and the prospects for long-rangelong-term appreciation of a particular property. As a result, we may acquire properties other than the types described above. In addition, we may acquire properties that vary from the parameters described above for a particular property type.
Our real estate investments generally take the form of holding fee title or long-term leasehold interests. Our investments may be made either directly through our operating partnership or indirectly through investments in joint ventures, limited liability companies, general partnerships or other co-ownership arrangements with the developers of the properties or other persons. See “Joint Ventures” below for a further discussion.
We have exercised, and may continue to exercise, our purchase options to acquire properties that we currently lease. In addition, we have participated in sale-leaseback transactions, in which we purchase real estate investments and lease them back to the sellers of such properties. We seek to structure any such sale-leaseback transaction such that the lease will be characterized as a “true lease” and so that we will be treated as the owner of the property for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Our obligation to close a transaction involving the purchase of real estate is generally conditioned upon the delivery and verification of certain documents, including, where appropriate: (i) plans and specifications; (ii) environmental reports (generally a minimum of a Phase I investigation); (iii) building condition reports; (iv) surveys; (v) evidence of marketable title subject to such liens and encumbrances; (vi) audited financial statements covering recent operations of real properties having operating histories unless such statements are not required to be filed with the SEC and delivered to stockholders; (vii) title insurance policies; and (viii) the availability of property and liability insurance policies.
In determining whether to purchase a particular real estate investment, we may obtain an option on such property, including land suitable for development. The amount paid for an option is normally surrendered if the real estate is not purchased and is normally credited against the purchase price if the real estate is purchased. We also may enter into arrangements with the seller or developer of a real estate investment whereby the seller or developer agrees that if, during a stated period, the real estate investment does not generate specified cash flows, the seller or developer will pay us cash in an amount necessary to reach the specified cash flows level, subject in some cases to negotiated dollar limitations.
We have obtained, and we intend to continue to obtain, adequate insurance coverage for all real estate investments in which we invest.
We have acquired, and we intend to continue to acquire, leased properties with long-term leases and we generally do not intend to operate any healthcare-related facilities directly. As a REIT, we are prohibited from operating healthcare-related facilities directly; however, we have leased, and may continue to lease, healthcare-related facilities that we acquire to whollywholly- owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, utilizing a RIDEA structure permitted by the Code. In such an event, our TRS will
engage a third party in the business of operating healthcare-related facilities to manage the property. Through our TRS, we bear all operational risks and liabilities associated with the operation of such healthcare-related facilities unlike our triple-net leased properties. Such operational risks and liabilities might include, but are not limited to, resident quality of care claims and governmental reimbursement matters.
Development and Construction Activities
On an opportunistic basis, we have selectively developed, are currently developing (through Trilogy), and may continue to selectively develop, real estate assets within our integrated senior health campuses segment and other segments of our portfolio when market conditions warrant, which may be funded through capital that we, and in certain circumstances, our joint venture partners, provide. In doing so, we may be able to reduce overall purchase costs by developing property versus purchasing an existing property. We retain and will continue to retain independent contractors to perform the actual construction work on tenant improvements, as well as property development.
Terms of Leases
The terms and conditions of any lease we enter into with our tenants may vary substantially. However, we expect that a majority of our tenant leases will require the tenant to pay or reimburse us for some or all of the operating expenses of the building based on the tenant’s proportionate share of rentable space within the building. Operating expenses typically include, but are not limited to, real estate and other taxes, utilities, insurance and building repairs, and other building operation and
management costs. For our multi-tenanted properties, we generally expect to be responsible for the replacement of certain capital improvements affecting a property, including structural components of a property such as the roof of a building and other capital improvements such as parking facilities. We expect that many of our tenant leases will have terms of five or more years, some of which may have renewal options.
Substantially all of our leases with residents at our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses are for a term of one year or less, which creates the opportunity for operators to adjust rents to reflect current market conditions.
Joint Ventures
We have entered into, and we may continue to enter into, joint ventures, general partnerships and other arrangements with one or more institutions or individuals, including real estate developers, operators, owners, investors and others, for the purpose of acquiring real estate. Our investment in Trilogy is an example of a joint venture into which we have entered. Such joint ventures may be leveraged with debt financing or unleveraged. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, joint ventures to further diversify our investments or to access investments which meet our investment criteria that would otherwise be unavailable to us. In determining whether to invest in a particular joint venture, we will evaluate the real estate that such joint venture owns or is being formed to own under the same criteria described elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the selection of our other properties. However, we will not participate in tenant in commontenant-in-common syndications or transactions.
Joint ventures with unaffiliated third parties may be structured such that the investment made by us and the other joint venture party are on substantially different terms and conditions. This type of investment structure may result in the other joint venture party receiving more of the cash flows, including appreciation, of an investment than we would receive, or may result in certain conflict of interest. See Item 1A, Risk Factors — Risks Related to Joint Ventures, for a further discussion.
Real Estate-Related Investments
In addition to our acquisition of properties, we have invested on an infrequent and opportunistic basis, and may continue to invest, in real estate-related investments, including loans and securities investments.
InvestmentInvestments in Real Estate Mortgages
We have invested, and we may continue to invest, in first and second mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and bridge loans. However, we will not make or invest in any loans that are subordinate to any mortgage or equity interest of any of our directors or any of our affiliates. We also may invest in participations in mortgage loans. Second mortgage loans are secured by second deeds of trust on real property that is already subject to prior mortgage indebtedness. A mezzanine loan is a loan made in respect of certain real property but is secured by a lien on the ownership interests of the entity that, directly or indirectly, owns the real property. A bridge loan is short termshort-term financing for an individual or business, until permanent or the next stage of financing can be obtained. Mortgage participation investments are investments in partial interests of mortgages of the type described above that are made and administered by third-party mortgage lenders. We may also make seller financing loans in connection with the disposition of our properties. In evaluating prospective loan investments, we consider factors, including, but not limited to: (i) the ratio of the investment amount to the underlying property’s value; (ii) current and projected cash flows of the property; (iii) the degree of liquidity of the investment; (iv) the quality, experience and creditworthiness of the borrower; and (v) in the case of mezzanine loans, the ability to acquire the underlying real property.
Our criteria for making or investing in loans are substantially the same as those involved in our investment in properties. We do not intend to make loans to other persons, to underwrite securities of other issuers or to engage in the purchase and sale of any types of investments other than those relating to real estate. We generally will not make or invest in mortgage loans on any one property if the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the property, including our loan, would exceed an amount equal to 85.0% of the appraised value of the property, as determined by an appraiser, unless we find substantial justification due to other underwriting criteria; however, our policy generally will be that the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the property, including our loan, would not exceed 75.0% of the appraised value of the property. We may find such justification in connection with the purchase of loans in cases in which we believe there is a high probability of our foreclosure upon the property in order to acquire the underlying assets and in which the cost of the loan investment does not exceed the fair market value of the underlying property. We will not invest in or make loans unless an appraisal has been obtained concerning the underlying property, except for those loans insured or guaranteed by a government or government agency or in connection with seller financing loans. In the event the transaction is with any of our directors or their respective affiliates, the appraisal will be obtained from a certified independent appraiser to support its determination of fair market value. In addition, we will seek to obtain a customary lender’s title insurance policy or commitment as to the priority of the mortgage or condition of the title. Because the factors considered, including the specific weight we place on each factor, will vary for each prospective loan investment, we do not, and are not able to, assign a specific weight or level of importance to any particular factor.
We will evaluate all potential loan investments to determine if the security for the loan and the loan-to-value ratio meets our investment criteria and objectives. Most loans that we will consider for investment would provide for monthly payments of interest, and some may also provide for principal amortization, although many loans of the nature that we will consider provide for payments of interest only and a payment of principal in full at the end of the loan term. We will not originate loans with negative amortization provisions.
We are not limited as to the amount of our assets that may be invested in mezzanine loans, bridge loans and second mortgage loans. However, we recognize that these types of loans are riskier than first deeds of trust or first priority mortgages on income-producing, fee-simple properties, and we expect to minimize the amount of these types of loans in our portfolio. We will evaluate the fact that these types of loans are riskier in determining the rate of interest on the loans. We do not have any policy that limits the amount that we may invest in any single loan or the amount we may invest in loans to any one borrower. We have not established a portfolio turnover policy with respect to loans we invest in or originate.
Investment in Other Securities
We have invested, and may continue to invest, in debt securities such as commercial mortgage-backed securities issued by other unaffiliated real estate companies. We may also invest in equity securities of public or private real estate companies. Commercial mortgage-backed securities are securities that evidence interests in, or are secured by, a single commercial mortgage loan or a pool of commercial mortgage loans. Commercial mortgage-backed securities generally are pass-through certificates that represent beneficial ownership interests in common law trusts whose assets consist of defined portfolios of one or more commercial mortgage loans. They typically are issued in multiple tranches whereby the more senior classes are entitled to priority distributions from the trust’s income. Losses and other shortfalls from expected amounts to be received in the mortgage pool are borne by the most subordinate classes, which receive payments only after the more senior classes have received all principal and/or interest to which they are entitled. Commercial mortgage-backed securities are subject to all of the risks of the underlying mortgage loans. We may invest in investment grade and non-investment grade commercial mortgage-backed securities.
The specific number and mix of securities in which we invest will depend upon real estate market conditions, other circumstances existing at the time we are investing in securities and the amount of any future indebtedness that we may incur. We will not invest in securities of other issuers for the purpose of exercising control, and the first or second mortgages in which we intend to invest will likely not be insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs or otherwise guaranteed or insured. Real estate-related equity securities are generally unsecured and also may be subordinated to other obligations of the issuer. Our investments in real estate-related equity securities will involve special risks relating to the particular issuer of the equity securities, including the financial condition and business outlook of the issuer.
Financing Policies
We have used, and intend to continue to use, secured and unsecured debt as a means of providing additional funds for the acquisition of properties and real estate-related investments. Our ability to enhance our investment returns and to increase our diversification by acquiring assets using additional funds provided through borrowing could be adversely impacted if banks and other lending institutions reduce the amount of funds available for the types of loans we seek. When interest rates are high or financing is otherwise unavailable on a timely basis, we may purchase certain assets for cash with the intention of obtaining
debt financing at a later time. We have also used, and may continue to use, derivative financial instruments such as fixed interest rate swaps and caps to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.
We anticipate that our overall leverage will not exceed 50.0% of the combined fair market value of all of our properties and other real estate-related investments, as determined at the end of each calendar year. For these purposes, the market value of each asset will be equal to the contract purchase price paid for the asset or, if the asset was appraised subsequent to the date of purchase, then the market value will be equal to the value reported in the most recent independent appraisal of the asset. Our policies do not limit the amount we may borrow with respect to any individual investment. As of December 31, 2022, our aggregate borrowings were 48.5% of the combined market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments.
We seek to obtain financing on the most favorable terms available to us and refinance assets during the term of a loan only in limited circumstances, such as when a decline in interest rates makes it beneficial to prepay an existing loan, when an existing loan matures or if an attractive investment becomes available and the proceeds from the refinancing can be used to purchase such investment. The benefits of the refinancing may include increased cash flows resulting from reduced debt service requirements, an increase in distributions from proceeds of the refinancing and an increase in diversification and assets owned if all or a portion of the refinancing proceeds are reinvested.
If we incur mortgage indebtedness, we will endeavor to obtain level payment financing, meaning that the amount of debt service payable would be substantially the same each year, although some mortgages are likely to provide for one large payment and we may incur floating or adjustable rate financing when our board determines it to be in our best interest.
Dispositions
We have disposed, and may continue to dispose, of assets. We will determine whether a particular property or real estate-related investment should be sold or otherwise disposed of after consideration of the relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view toward maximizing our investment objectives. We intend to hold each property or real estate-related investment we acquire for an extended period. However, circumstances might arise which could result in a shortened holding period for certain investments. A property or real estate-related investment may be sold before the end of the expected holding period if: (i) diversification benefits exist associated with disposing of the investment and rebalancing our investment portfolio; (ii) an opportunity arises to pursue a more attractive investment; (iii) the value of the investment might decline; (iv) with respect to properties, a major tenant involuntarily liquidates or is in default under its lease; (v) the investment was acquired as part of a portfolio acquisition and does not meet our general acquisition criteria; (vi) an opportunity exists to enhance overall investment returns by raising capital through sale of the investment; or (vii) the sale of the investment is in our best interest and the best interestinterests of our stockholders; or (viii) in connection with the strategic goals of one of our joint ventures.stockholders.
The determination of whether a particular property or real estate-related investment should be sold or otherwise disposed of will be made after consideration of the relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view toward maximizing our investment objectives.
Tax Status and Distribution Policy
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2016. We believe that we have been organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. Our qualification as a REIT, and maintenance of such qualification, will depend on our ability to meet, on a continuing basis, various complex requirements under the Code relating to, among other things, the sources of our gross income, the composition and values of our assets, our distribution levels and the concentration of ownership of our stock.
As a REIT, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on the REIT taxable income that we currently distribute to our stockholders. Under the Code, REITs are subject to numerous organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that they distribute annually at least 90.0% of their REIT taxable income to their stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any calendar year and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our REIT taxable income would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the regular corporate rate, and we would likely be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we fail to qualify. Accordingly, our failure to qualify as a REIT could have a material adverse effect on us. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may still be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and assets and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, a portion of our business has been, and is likely to continue to be, conducted through, and a portion of our income may be earned in, one or more TRSs that are themselves subject to regular corporate income taxation.
We cannot predict if we will generate sufficient cash flows to continue to pay cash distributions to our stockholders on an ongoing basis or at all. The amount of any cash distributions is determined by our board and depends on the amount of distributable funds, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations, any limitations imposed by the terms of indebtedness we may incur, as well as other factors. If our investments produce sufficient cash flows, we expect to continue paying distributions to our stockholders as determined at the discretion of our board of directors.board. Because our cash available for distribution in any year may be less than 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains, for the year, we may be required to borrow money, use proceeds from the issuance of securities (in subsequent offerings, if any) or sell assets to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the distribution requirement. These methods of obtaining funds could affect future distributions by increasing operating costs. We did not establish any limit on the amount of net proceeds from the initial offering or
borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences.
To the extent that any distributions to our stockholders are paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, such distributions are taxable as ordinary income. To the extent that any of our distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, such amounts constitute a return of capital to our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of their basis in their stock and thereafter will constitute capital gain. Any portion of distributions to our stockholders paid from net offering proceeds or borrowings constituteswill be treated in the same manner.
Our board shall authorize distributions, if any, on a return of capital to our stockholders.
Since September 2021, our board authorized distributions to our stockholders of record as of a designated record date each month and paid such distributions monthly in arrears. Beginning with distributions made after July 2022, our board elected
to pay distributions quarterly to reduce administrative costs.basis. The amount of distributions we pay to our stockholders is determined by our board and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code and restrictions imposed by our organizational documents and Maryland Law.
See Part II, Item 5, Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities — Distributions, for a further discussion of distributions approved by our board.
Competition
We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions and dispositions of MOBs, hospitals,OM buildings, SNFs, senior housing and other healthcare-related facilities. Our ability to successfully compete is impacted by economic trends, availability of acceptable investment opportunities, our ability to negotiate beneficial investment terms, availability and cost of capital, construction and development costs and applicable laws and regulations.
Income from our investments is dependent on the ability of our tenants and operators to compete with other healthcare operators. These operators compete on a local and regional basis for patients and residents, and the operators’ ability to successfully attract and retain patients and residents depends on key factors such as the number of properties in the local market, the quality of the affiliated health system, proximity to hospital campuses, the price and range of services available, the scope and quality of care, reputation, age and appearance of each property, demographic trends and the cost of care in each locality. Additionally, referral sources, including physicians and managed care organizations, may change their lists of hospitals or physicians to which they refer patients or that are permitted to participate in a payor program. As a result, we may have to provide rent concessions, incur charges for tenant improvements or offer other inducements, or we may be unable to timely lease vacant space in our properties, all of which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations. Private, federal and state payment programs and the effect of other laws and regulations may also have a significant impact on the ability of our tenants and operators to compete successfully for patients and residents at theour properties. For additional information on the risks associated with our business, please see Item 1A, Risk Factors.
Government Regulations
Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, and changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies, occur frequently. Further, our tenants and our healthcare facility operators, including our TRS entities that own and operate our properties under a RIDEA structure, are typically subject to extensive and complex federal, state and local healthcare laws and regulations relating to quality of care, government reimbursement, fraud and abuse practices and similar laws governing the operation of healthcare facilities, and we expect the healthcare industry, in general, will continue to face increased regulation and pressure in the areas of healthcare management, fraud and provision of services, among others. If we fail to comply with these various requirements, we may incur governmental fines or private damage awards. While we believe that our properties are and will be in substantial compliance with all of these regulatory requirements, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether future requirements will require us to make significant unanticipated capital expenditures that will adversely affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. We believe, based in part on third-party due diligence reports which are generally obtained at the time we acquire the properties, that all of our properties comply in all material respects with current regulations or are currently being remediated pursuant to a government approved plan.regulations. However, if we were required to make significant expenditures under applicable regulations, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Privacy and Security Laws and Regulations
There are various federal and state privacy laws and regulations that provide for consumer protection of personal health information, particularly electronic security and privacy. Compliance with such laws and regulations may require us to, among other things, to conduct additional risk analysis, modify our risk management plan, implement new policies and procedures and conduct additional training. We are generally dependent on our tenants and management companies to fulfill our compliance obligations, and we have in certain circumstances developed a program to periodically monitor compliance with such obligations. However, there can be no assurance we would not be required to alter one or more of our systems and data security
procedures to be in compliance with these laws. If we fail to adequately protect health information, we could be subject to civil or criminal liability and adverse publicity, which could harm our business and impact our ability to attract new tenants and residents. We may be required to notify individuals, as well as government agencies and the media, if we experience a data breach. See Item 1C, Cybersecurity, below for a further discussion.
Healthcare Licensure and Certification
Generally, certain properties in our portfolio are subject to licensure, may require a certificate of need, or CON, or other certification through regulatory agencies in order to operate and participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs. Requirements
pertaining to such licensure and certification relate to the quality of care provided by the operator, qualifications of the operator’s staff and continuing compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, CON laws and regulations may place restrictions on certain activities such as the addition of bedsbeds/units at our facilities and changes in ownership. Failure to obtain a license, CON or other certification, or revocation, suspension or restriction of such required license, CON or other certification, could adversely impact our properties’ operations and their ability to generate revenue from services provided. State CON laws are not uniform throughout the United States and are subject to change. We cannot predict the impact of state CON laws on our facilities or the operations of our tenants.
Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements for access and use by disabled persons. Additional federal, state and local laws also may require modifications to our properties or restrict our ability to renovate our properties. We cannot predict the cost of compliance with the ADA or other legislation. We may incur substantial costs to comply with the ADA or any other legislation.
Government Environmental Regulation and Private Litigation
Environmental laws and regulations hold us liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances which may be on our properties. These laws could impose liability without regard to whether we are responsible for the presence or release of the hazardous materials. Government investigations and remediation actions may have substantial costs, and the presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in personal injury or similar claims by private plaintiffs. Various laws also impose liability on a person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances, and such person often must incur the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at the disposal or treatment facility. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. As the owner of our properties, we may be deemed to have arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances.
Geographic Concentration
For a discussion of our geographic information, see Item 2, Properties — Geographic Diversification/Concentration Table, as well as Note 19,18, Segment Reporting, and Note 20,19, Concentration of Credit Risk, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Corporate Responsibility — Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
We are committed to conducting our business in a manner that benefits all of our stakeholders and ensures a lasting and positive impact from our operations. As a result, we measure our success not only by our ability to generate profits but also our ability to reduce our impact on the environment, affect positive social change in our community and conduct our operations in accordance with the highest ethical standards. To achieve this, we are developing a comprehensive ESG strategy and related ESG policy.policy, to which we intend to adhere. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has been delegated the authority to provide oversight and guidance to our board regarding ESG trends and best practices. In particular, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall, as it deems appropriate, recommend changes to our company’s ESG practices as necessary to comply with existing legal requirements or emerging trends and best practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also shall periodically receive reports from management regarding our company’s ESG strategy, initiatives and policies. This ESG policy, which we intend to update regularly as applicable, is briefly summarized below and will be posted on our website, www.AmericanHealthcareREIT.com, and will contain more detailed information once available. Information contained on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated by reference into and does not constitute a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Environmental Responsibility
Protecting the environment and pursuing strong environmental initiatives are integral to our company’s business. In 2022, we launched our ESG program and began conducting a materiality assessment to assist us in prioritizing our efforts and maximizing the efficacy of our program. We strive to consciously manage our operations in a way that minimizes our impact
on the environment and promotes sustainability. At our headquarters, we leverage the latest technology to minimize our energy use, such as efficient and automated lighting systems, moderation, and monitoring of heating and air conditioning, and recycling paper, plastics, metals, and electronics. In addition, we encourage all of our employees to adopt sustainable best practices. For example, we promote the use of electronic communication over printing whenever possible and have implemented electronic approval systems. Our corporate office in California is located in a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (known as LEED) certified buildings.building. Within our portfolio, we work with tenants and operators to implement energy efficiency wherever possible, including light-emitting diode (known as LED) retrofitting and water conservation efforts.
WeIn addition, we follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material adverse effect on us. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Social
Human Capital ResourcesOur People
As of December 31, 2022,2023, we had approximately 113 employees.110 employees, including 68 in Accounting and Finance, 15 in Asset Management, eight in Investments, four in Information Technology and three in Legal.
We believe our employees are our greatest asset, and we pride ourselves on the diversity they bring to our company. Because of this, we have implemented a number of programs to foster not only their professional growth, but also their growth as global citizens. All of our employees are provided with a comprehensive benefits and wellness package, which may include high-quality medical, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401(k) matching, long-term incentive plans, educational grants, fitness programs and other benefits. We provide our employees, consultants and executive officers with competitive compensation and, where applicable, opportunities for equity ownership through our Second Amended and Restated 2015 Incentive Plan, or the AHR Incentive Plan. See Note 14,13, Equity — Equity Compensation Plans — AHR 2015 Incentive Plan, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
We also believe that one of the keys to our success is our ability to benefit from a wide range of opinions and experiences. We believe the best way to accomplish this is through promoting racial, gender and generational diversity across all layers of our organization. As of December 31, 2022, 69.0%2023, 72.7% of our employees were minorities and 63.7%58.2% were females.female. Generationally, our organization was composed of 4.4%10.0% Generation Z, 48.7%37.3% Millennials, 39.8%48.2% Generation X and 7.1%4.5% Baby Boomers. In addition,To further assist us in establishing a work environment that promotes diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, for our employees, we have implementedcompleted a DE&IDEI assessment of our organization and created a DEI action planplan. We provided and will continue to createprovide DEI education, beginning with a workplace environment that is both meaningful and rewarding tovirtual privilege walk for all employees and where there are no barriersleadership training for executives. Additionally, as a part of our commitment to success forDEI, our employees. Through DE&I, we create stronger teamworkboard and relationships that allows us to create a performance driven culture of success for one anotherthe Nominating and our stakeholders.Corporate Governance Committee actively seek out qualified women and individuals from underrepresented communities as director nominees.
Health and Safety
We are committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace. We continuously strive to meet or exceed compliance with all laws, regulations and accepted practices pertaining to workplace safety. All employees and contractors are required to comply with established safety policies, standards and procedures. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, ourOur focus has remainedis on promoting employee health and safety and ensuring business continuity. Beginning in March 2020, our employees were instructed to work from home. As certain offices have reopened due to the liftingpart of local government restrictions,such efforts, we have maintained a voluntary work-from-hometelecommuting policy, providing our people with valued flexibility. We have also substantially reduced employee travel to only essential business needs in favor of ongoing video-based meetings.
For our healthcare-related facilities operated pursuant to a RIDEA structure, which include our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, we rely on each management company to attract and retain skilled personnel to provide services at our healthcare-related facilities. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, such management companies have put into place a number of health and safety measures to enable their employees to continue to work in our healthcare-related facilities, including the procurement and distribution of personal protective equipment, and the implementation of daily employee and resident health screenings, vaccination clinics for employees and residents as well as aggressive safety protocols in accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, and local health agency guidelines to limit the exposure and spread of COVID-19. While the health and safety measures instituted by each management company have allowed facilities to operate during the pandemic, these facilities may face challenges created by workforce shortages and absenteeism due to COVID-19.
Governance
We believe maintaining a rigorous corporate governance framework is essential to the success of our organization, and we seek to adhere to policies and procedures that ensure transparency, accountability, oversight and risk minimization.minimization across all levels of our company. This includes numerous committees of our board, comprised solely of independent directors, which oversee a wide range of matters such as financial reporting,investment activities, executive compensation, ESG policies and conflict of interest related matters.
We have structured our corporate governance in a manner we believe closely aligns our interests with those of our stockholders. Notable features of our corporate governance structure include the following:
•our board is not classified and each of our directors is subject to election annually;annually. Additionally, our charter provides that we may not elect to be subject to the provision of the MGCL that would permit us to classify our board, unless we receive prior approval from stockholders;
•we have fully independent audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees;
•at least one of our directors qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable SEC regulations, and all members of the Audit Committee are financially literate in accordance with the NYSE listing rules and requirements;
•our board has opted out of the business combination statute in the MGCL (provided that such business combination is first approved by our board), and, pursuant to our bylaws, we have opted out of the control share acquisition statute in the MGCL;
•we do not have a stockholder rights plan and do not intend to adopt a stockholder rights plan in the future without (i) the approval of our stockholders or (ii) seeking ratification from our stockholders within 12 months of adoption of the plan if our board determines, in the exercise of the directors’ duties under applicable law, that it is in our best interests to adopt a rights plan without the delay of seeking prior stockholder approval; and
•our Corporate Governance Guidelines adopted by our board require our directors and officers to own certain minimum amounts of our common stock.
We also adhere to what we believe to be industry leading policies to ensure our management and employees are acting in a manner which protects the best interest of our stakeholders. This includes our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, Whistleblower Policy, Insider Trading Policy, Corporate Governance Guidelines, Regulation FD and Disclosure Policy and Related Party Transactions Policy.
Investment Company Act Considerations
We conduct, and intend to continue to conduct, our operations, and the operations of our operating partnership and any other subsidiaries, so that no such entity meets the definition of an “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. We primarily engage in the business of investing in real estate assets; however, our portfolio does include, to a much lesser extent, other real estate-related investments. We have also acquired, and may continue to acquire, real estate assets through investments in joint venture entities, including joint venture entities in which we may not own a controlling interest. We anticipate that our assets generally will be held in our wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries, of the company, each formed to hold a particular asset. We monitor our operations and our assets on an ongoing basis in order to ensure that neither we, nor any of our subsidiaries, meet the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. Among other things, we monitor the proportion of our portfolio that is placed in investments in securities.
Information About Industry Segments
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. As ofDuring the quarter ended December 31, 2022,2023, we operatedmodified how we evaluate our business and make resource allocations, and therefore determined that we operate through sixfour reportable business segments —segments: integrated senior health campuses, outpatient medical, or OM, (which was formerly known as medical office buildings, or MOBs), triple-net leased properties and SHOP. All segment information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been recast for all periods presented to reflect four reportable business segments and the change in segment name from MOBs SNFs, SHOP, senior housing — leased and hospitals.to OM.
Integrated Senior Health Campuses
Integrated senior health campuses are a valuable component of our portfolio because of their ability to provide a continuum of care as residents require increasing levels of care. As of December 31, 2022,2023, we owned and/or operated 120125 integrated senior health campuses. These facilities allow residents to “age-in-place” by providing independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and certain ancillary services, all within a single campus setting. Integrated senior health campuses predominantly focus on needs-drivenneed-driven segments of senior care (i.e., assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing) and charge market rents in lieu of entry fees, as is commonly the case with continuing care retirement communities. NearlyPredominantly all of our integrated senior health campuses are operated utilizing a RIDEA structure, allowing us to participate in the upside from any improved operational performance and bearwhile bearing the risk of any decline in operating performance. Integrated senior health campuses
Outpatient Medical
We value the stable and reliable cash flows our OM buildings provide our company, which we believe are aparticularly valuable component of our portfolio because of their ability to provide a continuum of care as residents require increasing levels of care.
MOBs
during market disruptions and recessionary periods. As of December 31, 2022,2023, we owned 104 MOBs88 OM buildings that we lease to third parties. These properties are similar to commercial office buildings, but typically require specialized infrastructure to accommodate a medical use (e.g., physicians’ offices and examination rooms, as well as some ancillary uses, including pharmacies, hospital ancillary service space and outpatient services, such as diagnostic centers, rehabilitation clinics and outpatient-surgery operating rooms).rooms. Our MOBsOM buildings are typically multi-tenant properties leased to healthcare providers (hospitals and physician practices) under leases that generally provide for recovery of certain operating expenses and certain capital expenditures and have initial terms of five to 10 years with fixed annual rent escalations. We valueescalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year).
Senior Housing Operating Properties
Our SHOP segment has the stablepotential for embedded growth through the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and reliable cash flows our MOBs provide our company, which we believe are particularly valuable during market disruptions and recessionary periods.
SNFs
demand growth from an aging U.S. population. As of December 31, 2022, we owned 17 SNFs that we lease to third parties. SNF residents are generally higher acuity and need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management and also require available 24-hour nursing
care. SNFs offer restorative, rehabilitative and custodial nursing care for people who cannot live independently but do not require the more extensive and sophisticated treatment available at hospitals. Skilled nursing services provided by our tenants in SNFs are paid for either by private sources or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Our SNFs are leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease, typically with 12 to 15 year initial terms, fixed annual rent escalations and require minimum lease coverage ratios. We commonly structure SNFs under a master lease with multiple facilities in order to diversify our master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk. We typically focus on SNF investments in states that require a CON in order to develop new SNFs, which we believe reduces the risk of over-supply.
SHOP
As of December 31, 2022,2023, we owned and operated 51an aggregate 55 senior housing and skilled nursing facilities in our SHOP segment. Senior housingSuch facilities cater to different segments of the elderly population based upon their personal needs and include independent living, assisted living, and memory care facilities.or skilled nursing services. Residents of assisted living facilities typically require limited medical care but need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management. Services provided by operators at these facilities are primarily paid for by the residents directly or through private insurance and are therefore less reliant on government reimbursement programs, such as Medicaid and Medicare. The facilities in our SHOP segment are operated utilizing RIDEA structures, allowing us to participate in the upside from any improved operational performance but requiring us to bearwhile bearing the risk of any decline in operating performance.
Triple-Net Leased Properties
Our SHOPtriple-net leased properties segment hasincludes senior housing, skilled nursing facilities and hospitals. We lease such properties to tenants under triple-net or absolute-net leases that obligate the potential for embedded growth through the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemictenants to pay all property-related expenses, including maintenance, utilities, repairs, taxes, insurance and demand growth from an aging U.S. population.
Senior Housing — Leasedcapital expenditures.
As of December 31, 2022,2023, we owned 20 senior housing facilities15 SNFs within our triple-net leased properties segment that we lease to third parties withinparties. SNF residents are generally higher acuity and need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management and also require available 24-hour nursing care. SNFs offer restorative, rehabilitative and custodial nursing care for people who cannot live independently but do not require the more extensive and sophisticated treatment available at hospitals. Skilled nursing services provided by our senior housing — leased segment. The facilitiestenants in SNFs are paid for either by private sources or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Each SNF is leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease, structure with approximatelyan initial term typically ranging from 12 to 15 year initial terms andyears, fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year) and requirerequiring minimum lease coverage ratios. We commonly structure senior housing — leased assetsSNFs under a single master lease coveringwith multiple facilities in order to diversify our master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk.
Hospitals We typically focus on SNF investments in states that require a CON in order to develop new SNFs, which we believe reduces the risk of over-supply.
As of December 31, 2022,2023, we owned 11 senior housing facilities within our triple-net leased properties segment that we lease to third parties. Each facility is leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease structure with an initial term typically ranging from approximately 12 to 15 years, fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year) and requiring minimum lease coverage ratios. Such assets are commonly leased under a single master lease covering multiple facilities in order to diversify a master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk.
As of December 31, 2023, we have one wholly-owned hospital and one hospital in which we own an approximately 90.6% interest.interest within our triple-net leased properties segment. Services provided by operators and tenants in our hospitals are paid for by private sources, third-party payors (e.g., insurance and health maintenance organizations) or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Our hospital properties include acute care, long-term acute care, specialty and rehabilitation services andthat are leased to single tenants or operators under triple-net lease structures.structures with an initial term ranging from 21 to 29 years and fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 6% per year).

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Investing in our common stock involves risks. Our stockholders should carefully consider the risk factors below, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included herein. If any of these risks were to occur, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our stockholders at a particular rate, or at all, could be materially and adversely affected (which we refer to collectively as “materially and adversely affecting us” or having “a material adverse effect on us” and comparable phrases).
Risk Factor Summary
Below is a summary of the principal factors that make an investment in our common stock speculative or risky. This summary should be read in conjunction with the full risk factors contained below.
Investment Risks
•There is no public market for the shares of our common stock. Therefore, it will be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares of our common stock and, if our stockholders are able to sell their shares of our common stock, they will likely sell them at a substantial discount.
•We have paid, and may continue to pay, a portion of distributions from the net proceeds of the initial offering and borrowings or from other sources. Any such distributions may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in assets and may negatively impact the value of our stockholders’ investment.
•The estimated per share NAV of our common stock may not be an accurate reflection of fair value of our assets and liabilities and likely will not represent the amount of net proceeds that would result if we were liquidated, dissolved or completed a merger or other sale of our company.
•We may not effect a liquidity event within any targeted time frame, or at all. If we do not effect a liquidity event, our stockholders may have to hold their investment in shares of our common stock indefinitely.
•We may not complete the contemplated underwritten offering of our common stock or be successful in listing our common stock on the NYSE. Similarly, there can be no assurance that any public offering price per share of common stock in any offering or subsequent trading price per share of our common stock on the NYSE, if we are successful in listing our common stock thereon, will exceed our current NAV per share.
Risks Related to Our Business and Financial Results
•The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted, and could continue to adversely impact, our business and financial results.
•We have experienced net losses in the past and we may experience additional losses in the future.
•Our prior performance may not be an accurate predictor of our ability to achieve our business objectives or of our future results.
•Our success is dependent on the performance and continued contributions of certain of our key personnel and, in the event they are no longer employed by us, we could be materially and adversely affected.
•All of our integrated senior health campuses are managed by Trilogy Management Services, LLC, or the Trilogy Manager, and account for a significant portion of our revenues and operating income. Adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength could have a material adverse effect on us.
Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate
•Uncertain market conditions could lead our real estate investments to decrease in value or may cause us to sell our properties at a loss in the future.
•Most of our costs, such as operating and general and administrative expenses, interest expense and real estate acquisition and construction costs, are subject to inflation and may not be recoverable.
•Our high concentrations of properties in particular geographic areas magnify the effects of negative conditions affecting those geographic areas.
•Our real estate investments may be concentrated in MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals or other healthcare-related facilities, making us more vulnerable to negative factors affecting these classes than if our investments were diversified beyond the healthcare industry.
•Our business, tenants, residents and operators may face litigation and experience rising liability and insurance costs, which may materially and adversely affect us.
Risks Related to Real Estate-Related Investments
•Unfavorable real estate market conditions and delays in liquidating defaulted mortgage loan investments may negatively impact mortgage loans in which we have invested and may invest, which could result in losses to us.
•We expect a portion of our real estate-related investments to be illiquid and we may not be able to adjust our portfolio in a timely manner in response to changes in economic and other conditions.
Risks Related to the Healthcare Industry
•The healthcare industry is heavily regulated and new laws or regulations, changes to existing laws or regulations, loss of licensure, or failure to obtain licensure could result in the inability of our tenants to make rent payments to us or adversely affect our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures.
•Reductions in reimbursement from third-party payors could adversely affect our tenants’ operations and ability to make rental payments to us or our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures.
•If seniors delay moving to senior housing facilities until they require greater care or forgo moving to senior housing facilities altogether, such action could have a material adverse effect on us.
•We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs may be subject to various government reviews, audits and investigations that could materially and adversely affect us, including an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us.
Risks Related to Joint Ventures
•Property ownership through joint ventures could limit our control of those investments or our decisions with respect to other investments, restrict our ability to operate and finance properties on our terms, and reduce their expected return.
Risks Related to Debt Financing
•We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.
•To the extent we borrow funds at floating interest rates, we will be adversely affected by rising interest rates unless fully hedged. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt.
•Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants relating to our business.
Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Organization
•Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our common stock, or equity securities, which would dilute our existing stockholders and may be senior to our common stock, may adversely affect our stockholders.
Risks Related to Taxes and Our REIT Status
•Failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes would subject us to U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income at the regular corporate rate, which would substantially reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
•We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes that could increase our tax liability or reduce our operating flexibility.
•If the REIT Merger does not qualify as a tax-free reorganization, there may be adverse tax consequences.
Risks Related to Tax Exempt Investors
•If a stockholder that is a benefit plan or IRA fails to meet the fiduciary and other standards under ERISA or the Code as a result of an investment in shares of our common stock, such stockholder could be subject to civil and, if the failure is willful, criminal penalties.
Investment Risks
There is no public market for the shares of our common stock. Therefore, it will be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares of our common stock and, if our stockholders are able to sell their shares of our common stock, they will likely sell them at a substantial discount.
There currently is no public market for the shares of our common stock. We do not expect a public market for our stock to develop prior to the listing of the shares of our common stock on a national securities exchange, which may not occur in the near future or at all. Additionally, our charter contains restrictions on the ownership and transfer of shares of our stock and these restrictions may inhibit our stockholders’ ability to sell their shares of our common stock. Our charter provides that no person may own more than 9.9% in value of our issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or more than 9.9% in value or in number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. Any purported transfer of the shares of our common stock that would result in a violation of either of these limits will result in such shares being transferred to a trust for the benefit of a charitable beneficiary or such transfer being declared null and void. We have adopted a share repurchase plan, but it is limited in terms of the amount of shares of our common stock which may be repurchased annually, is subject to our board’s discretion and is currently suspended except with respect to requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders. As such, it will be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares of our common stock promptly or at all. If our stockholders are able to sell their shares of our common stock, our stockholders may only be able to sell them to an unrelated third party at a substantial discount from the price they paid. This may be the result, in part, of the fact that, at the time we made our investments, the amount of funds available for investment were reduced by up to 12.0% of the gross offering proceeds, which amounts were used to pay selling commissions, a dealer manager fee and other organizational and offering expenses. We also were required to use gross offering proceeds to pay acquisition fees, acquisition expenses and asset management fees. Unless our aggregate investments increase in value to compensate for these fees and expenses, which may not occur, it is unlikely that our stockholders will be able to sell their shares of our common stock, whether pursuant to our share repurchase plan or otherwise, without incurring a substantial loss. We cannot assure our stockholders that their shares of our common stock will ever appreciate in value to equal the price our stockholders paid for their shares of our common stock. Therefore, shares of our common stock should be considered illiquid and a long-term investment, and our stockholders must be prepared to hold their shares of our common stock for an indefinite length of time.
We have paid a portion of distributions from the net proceeds of the initial offering and borrowings, and in the future, may continue to pay distributions from borrowings or from other sources in anticipation of future cash flows. Any such distributions may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in assets and may negatively impact the value of our stockholders’ investment.
We have used the net proceeds from the initial offering, borrowings and certain fees payable to our former advisor which have been waived, and in the future, may use borrowed funds or other sources, to pay cash distributions to our stockholders, which may reduce the amount of proceeds available for investment and operations, cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds or cause subsequent investors to experience dilution. Further, if the aggregate amount of cash distributed in any given year exceeds the amount of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess amount will be deemed a return of capital. Therefore, distributions payable to our stockholders may partially include a return of capital, rather than a return on capital, and we have paid a portion of our distributions from the net proceeds of the initial offering. We have not established any limit on the amount of net proceeds from the initial offering or borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences. The actual amount and timing of distributions is determined by our board, in its sole discretion, and typically depends on the amount of funds available for distribution, which depend on items such as our financial condition, current and projected capital expenditure requirements, tax considerations and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our qualification as a REIT. As a result, our distribution rate and payment frequency have varied, and may continue to vary, from time to time.
Prior to March 31, 2020, the GAHR IV board of directors authorized, on a quarterly basis, a daily distribution to its stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the period commencing on May 1, 2016 and ending on March 31, 2020. The daily distributions were calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and were equal to $0.001643836 per share of GAHR IV’s Class T common stock and Class I common stock, which is equal to an annualized distribution rate of $0.60 per share. These distributions were aggregated and paid monthly in arrears in cash or shares of common stock pursuant to the DRIP offerings, only from legally available funds.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on GAHR IV’s business and operations, the GAHR IV board of directors decided to take steps to protect GAHR IV’s capital and maximize GAHR IV’s liquidity in an effort to strengthen GAHR IV’s long-term financial prospects. Consequently, on March 31, 2020, the GAHR IV board of directors authorized a reduced distribution to its stockholders which is payable monthly in arrears only from legally available funds and equal to an annualized distribution rate of $0.40 per share, a decrease from the annualized distribution rate of $0.60 per share previously paid by GAHR IV. On October 4, 2021, our board reinstated the DRIP. As a result of the reinstatement of the DRIP, beginning with the October 2021 distribution, stockholders who previously enrolled as participants in the DRIP will receive distributions
in shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms of the DRIP, instead of cash distributions. See our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 5, 2021 for more information.
In connection with a proposed public offering by us of our shares of common stock in conjunction with a contemplated listing of our common stock on the NYSE, on November 14, 2022, our board approved the suspension of the AHR DRIP Offering beginning with the distributions declared for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. Consequently, until such time as our board approves the reinstatement of the AHR DRIP Offering, if at all, any future distributions to be paid to stockholders will be payable 100% in cash. See our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 16, 2022.
The estimated per share NAV of our common stock may not be an accurate reflection of fair value of our assets and liabilities and likely will not represent the amount of net proceeds that would result if we were liquidated, dissolved or completed a merger or other sale of our company.
On March 15, 2023, our board, at the recommendation of the audit committee of our board, which is comprised solely of independent directors, unanimously approved and established an updated estimated per share NAV of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock of $31.40 as of December 31, 2022. We provide this updated estimated per share NAV to assist broker-dealers in connection with their obligations under FINRA Rule 2231, with respect to customer account statements. The valuation was performed in accordance with the methodology provided in the Practice Guideline 2013-01, Valuations of Publicly Registered Non-Listed REITs, issued by the IPA in April 2013, in addition to guidance from the SEC. In the event we list on a national securities exchange in the future, we would not plan to continue publishing these valuations.
The updated estimated per share NAV was determined after consultation with an independent third-party valuation firm, the engagement of which was approved by the audit committee of our board. FINRA rules provide no guidance on the methodology an issuer must use to determine its estimated per share NAV. As with any valuation methodology, our independent valuation firm’s methodology was based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not have been accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated per share NAV, and these differences could be significant.
The updated estimated per share NAV was not audited or reviewed by our independent registered public accounting firm and did not represent the fair value of our assets or liabilities according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. In addition, the updated estimated per share NAV was an estimate as of a given point in time and the value of shares of our common stock will fluctuate over time as a result of, among other things, the number of shares of our common stock outstanding, developments related to individual assets and changes in the real estate and capital markets. Accordingly, with respect to the updated estimated per share NAV, we can give no assurance that:
•a stockholder would be able to resell his, her or its shares at our updated estimated per share NAV;
•a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to our updated estimated per share NAV upon liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities or a sale of our company;
•our shares of common stock would trade at our updated estimated per share NAV on a national securities exchange;
•an independent third-party appraiser or other third-party valuation firm, other than the third-party valuation firm engaged by our board to assist in its determination of the updated estimated per share NAV, would agree with our estimated per share NAV; or
•the methodology used to estimate our updated per share NAV would be acceptable to FINRA or comply with reporting requirements under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, or ERISA, the Code, other applicable law, or the applicable provisions of a retirement plan or individual retirement account, or IRA.
Further, our board has ultimately been responsible for determining the estimated per share NAV. Our independent valuation firm calculates estimates of the value of our assets, and our board then determines the net value of assets and liabilities taking into consideration such estimate provided by the independent valuation firm. After any particular valuation, there are likely to be changes in the value of our assets that would not be reflected in the published estimated per share NAV. As a result, the published estimated per share NAV may not fully reflect changes in value that may have occurred since the prior valuation. Furthermore, we will monitor our portfolio, but it has been, and may continue to be, difficult to reflect changing market conditions or material events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, prevailing interest rates and movements in capitalization rates that may impact the value of our portfolio between valuations, or to obtain timely or complete information regarding any such events. Therefore, the estimated per share NAV published before and during the announcement of an extraordinary event may differ significantly from our actual per share NAV until such time as sufficient information is available and analyzed, the financial impact is fully evaluated, and the appropriate adjustment is made to our estimated per share NAV, as determined by our board.
For a full description of the methodologies used to value our assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of the updated estimated per share NAV, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2023.
We may not effect a liquidity event within any targeted time frame, or at all. If we do not effect a liquidity event, our stockholders may have to hold their investment in shares of our common stock for an indefinite period of time.
Although we are currently positioning our company for a potential future listing on a national securities exchange at an opportune time, we are not obligated, through our charter or otherwise, to effectuate a transaction or liquidity event and may not effectuate a transaction or liquidity event within any time frame or at all. If we do not effectuate a transaction or liquidity event, it will be very difficult for our stockholders to have liquidity for their investment in the shares of our common stock other than limited liquidity through our share repurchase plan, if our share repurchase plan is fully reinstated by our board.
If and when we complete a liquidity event, the market value ascribed to our shares of common stock upon the liquidity event may be significantly lower than the current estimated per share NAV.
In the event that we complete a liquidity event, such as a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange, a merger in which our stockholders receive securities that are listed on a national securities exchange, or a sale for cash, the market value of our shares upon consummation of such liquidity event may be significantly lower than the current estimated per share NAV of our common stock that may be reflected on the account statements of our stockholders. For example, if our shares are listed on a national securities exchange, the trading price of the shares may be significantly lower than the most recent estimated per share NAV of our common stock of $31.40 as of December 31, 2022.
No assurance can be given that we will complete the contemplated underwritten offering by us of our common stock or that we will be successful in listing our common stock on the NYSE. Similarly, there can be no assurance that the public offering price per share of common stock in any offering that we may complete or that the subsequent trading price per share of our common stock on the NYSE, if we are successful in listing our common stock thereon, will exceed our current NAV per share.
In September 2022, we filed a registration statement with the SEC relating to a proposed public offering by us of shares of our common stock in conjunction with the contemplated listing of our common stock on the NYSE. Completing a public offering will require the SEC to declare the registration statement effective, and listing on the NYSE will require approval by the NYSE. Moreover, in addition to required regulatory actions, a decision to proceed with an offering and listing depends on our evaluation of market conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to when, or even if, we will be able to complete the public offering or successfully list our common stock on the NYSE.
We do not know the terms, including the public offering price per share, on which the contemplated underwritten public offering of common stock may be completed. The initial public offering price of the common stock sold in any such offering will be discussed between us and the representatives of the underwriters of such offering. Among the factors that we expect to consider in determining the initial public offering price, in addition to prevailing market conditions, will be our historical performance, estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects, an assessment of our management and the consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses. Thereafter, the market price of shares of our common stock on the NYSE will depend on numerous factors and may be volatile, and an active trading market may not develop or be maintained. There can be no assurance that the public offering price per share of common stock will equal or exceed our NAV per share, which our Board determined on March 15, 2023 to be $31.40 as of December 31, 2022, and the subsequent trading price may be below the public offering price per share.
Prior to suspension of the AHR DRIP Offering in November 2022, the purchase price per share of common stock sold under the AHR DRIP was the most recently published estimated NAV per share. No assurance can be given that the public offering price per share of common stock sold in any underwritten offering or that the trading price per share of our common stock on the NYSE will equal or exceed the price at which shares of common stock were sold under the AHR DRIP. The public offering price per share of common stock sold in any underwritten offering or the subsequent trading price per share of our common stock on the NYSE could be below our NAV per share and the price per share that investors purchased shares in the AHR DRIP Offering.
If we do complete the contemplated underwritten offering by us, shares of Class T common stock and Class I common stock held by current stockholders might not be listed initially on the NYSE.
It is contemplated that we will list our common stock sold in the potential underwritten public offering on the NYSE in conjunction with any such offering. Currently, our stockholders own either Class T common stock or Class I common stock, and we do not intend to list our Class T common stock or Class I common stock on the NYSE. However, it is contemplated that on the six-month anniversary of any listing of our common stock on the NYSE, outstanding shares of Class T common stock and Class I common stock will automatically be converted into shares of our NYSE-listed common stock. Accordingly, if we do complete the contemplated underwritten offering by us, current stockholders are not expected to be able to sell their Class T common stock or Class I common stock on the NYSE until such conversion occurs, and such shares would be less liquid than our listed common stock until such time as the automatic conversion occurs.
Risks Related to Our Business and Financial Results
•We are dependent on tenants for our revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
•The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted, and could continue to adversely impact, our business and financial results, and the ultimate impact will depend on future developments including the extentdeterioration, insolvency or bankruptcy of changes in policies and funding resulting from the expiration of the COVID-19 public health emergency declaration, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Our residents, tenants, operating partners and managers, our industry and the U.S. economy continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. While the COVID 19 pandemic is subsiding, the timing and extent of the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is dependent upon many factors, including the emergence and severity of COVID-19 variants, the effectiveness and frequency of booster vaccinations and the duration and implications of restrictions and safety measures. As the lasting effect of the COVID-19 pandemic is still impacting the healthcare system to a certain extent, it continues to present challenges for us as an owner and operator of healthcare facilities, making it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on real estate markets in which we own and/one or operate properties and our portfolio of investments.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a significant decline in resident occupancies at our leased senior housing facilities and SNFs, SHOP and integrated senior health campuses and an increase in COVID-19 related operating expenses with more costly short-term hires due to the shortage of healthcare personnel. Therefore, our focus at such properties continues to be on resident occupancy recovery and operating expense management. Resident occupancies at our senior housing and SNFs have been gradually improving. We believe the operational recovery of such classes from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will generally continue and that such recovery over time towards pre-pandemic levels will drive our overall portfolio performance.
As a result of the federal government's COVID-19 public health emergency declaration in January 2020, certain federal and state pandemic-related relief measures, such as funding, procedural waivers and/or reimbursement increases, became available to some of our major tenants, and operators. On January 30, 2023, the Biden Administration announced that the COVID-19 public health emergency declaration will expireoperators, borrowers or other obligors could have a material adverse effect on May 11, 2023, creating uncertainty as to how widespread these measures will continue to be and to what extent they may be distributed to and benefit our tenants and operators.us.
The lasting effect of the COVID-19 pandemic and pace of recovery will largely depend on future developments, which cannot be predicted with confidence at this time.
•We have experienced net losses in the past and we may experience additional losses in the future.
Historically, we have experienced net losses (calculated in accordance with GAAP) and we may not be profitable or realize growth in the value of our investments. Many of our losses can be attributed to start-up costs, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, as well as acquisition expenses incurred in connection with purchasing properties or making other investments. For a further discussion of our operational history and the factors affecting our net losses, see Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
•Our prior performance may not be an accurate predictor of our ability to achieve our business objectives or of our future results.
Our stockholders should not rely on our past performance to predict our future results. Our stockholders should review our prospects in light of the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by companies that have a limited operating history, many of which may be beyond our control. For example, due to challenging economic conditions in the past, distributions to stockholders were reduced. Therefore, to be successful in this market, we must, among other things:
•identify and acquire investments that further our business objectives and growth strategies;
•attract, integrate, motivate and retain qualified personnel to manage our day-to-day operations;
•respond to competition both for investment opportunities and potential investors’ investment in us; and
•build and expand our operational structure to support our business.
We cannot guarantee that we will succeed in achieving these goals, and our failure to do so could materially and adversely affect us and our stockholders could lose all or a portion of their investment.
Our success is dependent on the performance and continued contributions of certain of our key personnel, and, in the event they are no longer employed by us, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Our success depends, to a significant degree, upon the continued contributions of our executives and key officers. In particular, Danny Prosky would be difficult to replace. Mr. Prosky currently serves as our Chief Executive Officer and one of
our directors. In the event that Mr. Prosky or one of our other executives or key executive officers are no longer employed by us, for any reason, it could have a material adverse effect on us and we may not be able to attract and hire equally capable individuals to replace them. If we were to lose the benefit of the experience, efforts and abilities of one or more of our executives or other key officers, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Our financial results, our ability to make distributions to our stockholders and our ability to dispose of our investments are subject to international, national and local market conditions we cannot control or predict.
We are subject to the risks of an international or national economic slowdown or downturn and other changes in international, national and local market conditions. The following factors may have affected, and may continue to affect, income from our properties, our ability to acquire and dispose of properties, and our overall financial results and ability to make distributions to our stockholders:
•poor economic times may result in defaults by tenants of our properties due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity or operational failures. We may provide rent concessions, tenant improvement expenditures or reduced rental rates to maintain or increase occupancy levels;
•fluctuations as a result of supply and demand imbalances and reduced occupancies and rental rates may cause the properties that we own to decrease in value. Consequently, we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of our properties, which may require us to recognize an impairment charge or record a loss on sale in our financial results;
•reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or to obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans;
•constricted access to credit may result in tenant defaults or non-renewals under leases;
•layoffs may lead to a lower demand for medical services and cause vacancies to increase and a lack of future population and job growth may make it difficult to maintain or increase occupancy levels;
•disruptions in the financial markets, deterioration in economic conditions or a public health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have resulted, and may continue to result, in lower occupancy in our facilities, increased vacancy rates for commercial real estate due to generally lower demand for rentable space, as well as an oversupply of rentable space;
•governmental actions and initiatives, including risks associated with the impact of a prolonged government shutdown or budgetary reductions or impasses; and
•increased insurance premiums, real estate taxes or utilities or other expenses, such as inflation costs, will decrease our financial results and may reduce funds available for distribution to our stockholders or, to the extent such increases are passed through to tenants, may lead to tenant defaults. Also, any such increased expenses may not coincide with our ability to increase rents to tenants on turnover, which would adversely impact our financial results.
The length and severity of any economic slowdown or downturn cannot be predicted with confidence at this time. We have been, and we expect may continue to be, negatively impacted to the extent an economic slowdown or downturn is prolonged or becomes more severe.
We face significant competition for the acquisition and disposition of MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities, which may impede our ability to take, and increase the cost of, such actions, which may materially and adversely affect us.
We face significant competition from other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions and dispositions of MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities, some of whom may have greater resources, lower costs of capital and higher risk tolerances than we do. Increased competition makes it more challenging for us to identify and successfully capitalize on opportunities that meet our business objectives and could improve the bargaining power of our counterparties, thereby impeding our investment, acquisition and disposition activities. If we pay higher prices per property or receive lower prices for dispositions of our MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals or other healthcare-related facilities as a result of such competition, we may be materially and adversely affected.
Our investments in, and acquisitions of, MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities may be unsuccessful or fail to meet our expectations.
Some of our acquisitions may not prove to be successful. We could encounter unanticipated difficulties and expenditures relating to any acquired properties, including contingent liabilities, and acquired properties might require significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business. Such expenditures may negatively affect our results of operations. Investments in and acquisitions of MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-
related facilities entail risks associated with real estate investments generally, including risks that the investment will not achieve expected returns, that the cost estimates for necessary property improvements will prove inaccurate or that the tenant or operator will fail to meet performance expectations. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our anticipated acquisitions and investments, the completion of which is subject to various conditions, will be consummated in accordance with anticipated timing, on anticipated terms, or at all. In addition, we may not be able to identify off-market investment opportunities or investment opportunities that are strategically marketed to a limited number of investors at the rate that we anticipate or at all. We may be unable to obtain or assume financing for acquisitions on favorable terms or at all. Healthcare properties are often highly customizable and the development or redevelopment of such properties may require costly tenant-specific improvements. We may experience delays and disruptions to property redevelopment as a result of supply chain issues and construction material and labor shortages. We also may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations, and this could have a material adverse effect on us. Acquired properties may be located in new markets, either within or outside the United States, where we may face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, lack of business relationships in the area, costs associated with opening a new regional office, and unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures. As a result, we cannot assure our stockholders that we will achieve the economic benefit we expect from acquisitions, investment, development and redevelopment opportunities and may lead to impairment of such assets.
We are uncertain of all of our sources of debt or equity for funding our capital needs. If we cannot obtain funding on favorable terms, our ability to acquire, and make necessary capital improvements to, properties may be impaired or delayed, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We have not identified all of our sources of debt or equity for funding, and such sources of funding may not be available to us on favorable terms or at all. If we do not have access to sufficient funding on favorable terms in the future, we may not be able to acquire, and make necessary capital improvements to, properties, pay other expenses, or expand our business when desired, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We are dependent on tenants for our revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
The successful performance of our real estate investments is materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants. Lease payment defaults by tenants would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such leases and could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. If a property is subject to a mortgage, a default by a significant tenant on its lease payments to us may result in a foreclosure on the property if we are unable to find an alternative source of revenue to meet our mortgage payments. In the event of a tenant default, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-leasing our property. Further, we cannot assure our stockholders that we will be able to re-lease the property for the rent previously received, if at all, or that lease terminations will not cause us to sell the property at a loss.
All of our integrated senior health campuses are managed by Trilogy Management Services, LLC, or the Trilogy Manager, and account for a significant portion of our revenues and operating income. Adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength could have a material adverse effect on us.
As of March 17, 2023, the Trilogy Manager managed all of the day-to-day operations for all of our integrated senior health campuses pursuant to a long-term management agreement. These integrated senior health campuses accounted for approximately 41.1% of our portfolio (based on aggregate contract purchase price) as of December 31, 2022 and contributed approximately 46.8% of our annualized base rent/annualized NOI as of such date. Although we have various rights as the joint venture owner of these integrated senior health campuses under our management agreement, we rely on the Trilogy Manager’s personnel, expertise, technical resources and information systems, proprietary information, good faith and judgment to manage our integrated senior health campuses operations efficiently and effectively, and to identify and manage development opportunities for new integrated senior health campuses. We also rely on the Trilogy Manager to provide accurate campus-level financial results for our integrated senior health campuses in a timely manner and to otherwise operate our integrated senior health campuses in compliance with the terms of our management agreement and all applicable laws and regulations. We depend on the Trilogy Manager’s ability to attract and retain skilled personnel to provide these services. A shortage of nurses or other trained personnel or general inflationary pressures may force the Trilogy Manager to enhance its pay and benefits package to compete effectively for such personnel, the cost of which we would bear in proportion to our joint venture interest, but it may not be able to offset these added costs by increasing the rates charged to residents. As such, any adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength, including its ability to retain key personnel, could impair its ability to manage our integrated senior health campuses efficiently and effectively and could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, if the Trilogy Manager experiences any significant financial, legal, accounting or regulatory difficulties due to a weak economy, industry downturn or otherwise, such difficulties could result in, among other adverse events, acceleration of its indebtedness, impairment of its continued access to capital, the enforcement of default remedies by its counterparties, or the commencement
of insolvency proceedings by or against it under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Any one or a combination of these risks could have a material adverse effect on us.
In the event that our management agreement with the Trilogy Manager is terminated or not renewed, we may be unable to replace the Trilogy Manager with another suitable operator, or, if we were successful in locating such an operator, we cannot guarantee that it would manage the integrated senior health campuses efficiently and effectively or that any such transition would be completed timely, which may have a material adverse effect on us.
In the event we were to contemplate pursuing any existing or future contractual rights or remedies under our management agreement with the Trilogy Manager, including termination rights, we would consider numerous factors, including legal, contractual, regulatory, business and other relevant considerations. In the event that we exercise our rights to terminate the management agreement with the Trilogy Manager for any reason or such agreements are not renewed upon expiration of their terms, we would attempt to reposition the affected integrated senior health campuses with another operator. Although we believe that other qualified national and regional operators would be interested in managing our integrated senior health campuses, we cannot provide any assurance that we would be able to locate another suitable operator or, if we were successful in locating such an operator, that it would manage the integrated senior health campuses efficiently and effectively or that any such transition would be completed timely or would not require substantial capital expenditures. Any such transition would likely result in disruption of the operation of such facilities, including matters relating to staffing and reporting. Moreover, the transition to a replacement operator may require approval by the applicable regulatory authorities and, in most cases, one or more of our lenders, including the mortgage lenders for certain of the integrated senior health campuses, and we cannot provide any assurance that such approvals would be granted on a timely basis, if at all. Any inability to replace, or delay in replacing the Trilogy Manager as the operator of integrated senior health campuses with a highly qualified successor on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on us.
The financial deterioration, insolvency or bankruptcy of one or more of our major tenants, operators, borrowers or other obligors could have a material adverse effect on us.
A downturn in any of our tenants’, operators’, borrowers’ or other obligors’ businesses could ultimately lead to voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceedings, including but not limited to assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, liquidation or winding-up. Bankruptcy and insolvency laws afford certain rights to a defaulting tenant, operator or borrower that has filed for bankruptcy or reorganization that may render certain of our remedies unenforceable or, at the least, delay our ability to pursue such remedies and realize any related recoveries. A debtor has the right to assume, or to assume and assign to a third party, or to reject its executory contracts and unexpired leases in a bankruptcy proceeding. If a debtor were to reject its leases with us, obligations under such rejected leases would cease. The claim against the rejecting debtor would be an unsecured claim, which would be limited by the statutory cap set forth in the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and there may be insufficient assets to satisfy all unsecured claims, even ones limited by the statutory cap. This statutory cap may be substantially less than the remaining rent actually owed under the lease. In addition, a debtor may also assert in bankruptcy proceedings that leases should be re-characterized as financing agreements, which could result in our being deemed a lender instead of a landlord. A lender’s rights and remedies, as compared to a landlord’s, generally are materially less favorable, and our rights as a lender may be subordinated to other creditors’ rights.
Furthermore, the automatic stay provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code would preclude us from enforcing our remedies unless we first obtain relief from the court having jurisdiction over the bankruptcy case. This would effectively limit or delay our ability to collect unpaid rent or interest payments, and we may ultimately not receive any payment at all. In addition, we would likely be required to fund certain expenses and obligations to preserve the value of our properties, avoid the imposition of liens on our properties or transition our properties to a new tenant or operator. Additionally, we lease many of our properties to healthcare providers who provide long-term custodial care to the elderly. Evicting operators for failure to pay rent while the property is occupied typically involves specific procedural or regulatory requirements and may not be successful. Even if eviction is possible, we may determine not to do so due to reputational or other risks. Bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings typically also result in increased costs to the operator, significant management distraction and performance declines. If we are unable to transition affected properties, they would likely experience prolonged operational disruption, leading to lower occupancy rates and further depressed revenues. Publicity about the operator’s financial troubles and bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings may also negatively impact their and our reputations, decreasing customer demand and revenues. Any or all of these risks could have a material adverse effect on us.
We may incur additional costs in re-leasing properties with specialized uses, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Some of the properties we have acquired and will seek to acquire are healthcare properties designed or built primarily for a particular tenant of a specific type of use known as a single-user facility. If we or our tenants terminate the leases for these properties or our tenants default on their lease obligations or lose their regulatory authority to operate such properties, we may not be able to locate suitable replacement tenants to lease the properties for their specialized uses. Alternatively, we may be
required to spend substantial amounts to adapt the properties to other uses or incur other significant re-leasing costs. Any loss of revenues or additional capital expenditures required as a result may have a material adverse effect on us.
We may be unable to secure funds for future tenant or other capital improvements, which could limit our ability to attract, replace or retain tenants, pay our expenses and make distributions to our stockholders.
When tenants do not renew their leases or otherwise vacate their space, in order to attract replacement tenants, we have expended, and may be required to expend in the future, substantial funds for tenant improvements and leasing commissions related to the vacated space. Such tenant improvements have required, and may continue to require, us to incur substantial capital expenditures. If we have not established capital reserves for such tenant or other capital improvements, we will have to obtain financing from other sources and we have not identified any sources for such financing. We may also have future financing needs for other capital improvements to refurbish or renovate our properties. If we need to secure financing sources for tenant or other capital improvements in the future, but are unable to secure such financing or are unable to secure financing on terms we feel are acceptable, we may be unable to make tenant and other capital improvements or we may be required to defer such improvements. If this happens, it may cause one or more of our properties to suffer from a greater risk of obsolescence or a decline in value, or a greater risk of decreased cash flows as a result of fewer potential tenants being attracted to the property or our existing tenants not renewing their leases. If we do not have access to sufficient funding in the future, we may also not be able to pay our expenses or make distributions to our stockholders.
A breach of information technology systems on which we rely could materially and adversely impact us.
We and our tenants and operators rely on information technology systems, including the internet and networks and systems maintained and controlled by third-party vendors and other third parties, to process, transmit and store information and to manage or support our business processes. Third-party vendors collect and hold personally identifiable information and other confidential information of our tenants, operators, patients, stockholders and employees. We also maintain confidential financial and business information regarding us and persons and entities with which we do business on our information technology systems. While we and our tenants and operators take steps to protect the security of the information maintained in our information technology systems, including the use of commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring to provide security for processing, transmitting and storing of the information, it is possible that such security measures will not be able to prevent human error or the systems’ improper functioning, or the loss, misappropriation, disclosure or corruption of personally identifiable information or other confidential or sensitive information, including information about our tenants and employees. Cybersecurity breaches, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, phishing scams, attacks by hackers, breaches due to employee error or misconduct and similar breaches, can create, and in some instances in the past have resulted in, system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized access to information maintained on our information technology systems or the information technology systems of our third-party vendors or other third parties or otherwise cause disruption or negative impacts to occur to our business and materially and adversely affect us. While we and, we believe, most of our tenants and operators maintain cyber risk insurance to provide some coverage for certain risks arising out of cybersecurity breaches, there is no assurance that such insurance would cover all or a significant portion of the costs or consequences associated with a cybersecurity breach. As our reliance on technology increases, so will the risks posed to our information systems, both internal and those we outsource. In addition, as the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to information technology systems become more varied and sophisticated and the occurrence of such breaches becomes more frequent, we and our third-party vendors and other third parties may be unable to adequately anticipate these techniques or breaches and implement appropriate preventative measures. There is no guarantee that any processes, procedures and internal controls we have implemented or will implement will prevent cyber intrusions. Any failure to prevent cybersecurity breaches and maintain the proper function, security and availability of our or our third-party vendors’ and other third parties’ information technology systems could interrupt our operations, damage our reputation and brand, damage our competitive position, make it difficult for us to attract and retain tenants, and subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties, which could materially and adversely affect us. Additionally, as increased regulatory compliance for cybersecurity protocols and disclosures are required by state or federal authorities, the increased amount of resources, both time and expense, could also materially and adversely affect us.
Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate
•Uncertain market conditions could lead our real estate investments to decrease in value or may cause us to sell our properties at a loss in the future.
Our management, subject to the oversight of our board, may exercise its discretion as to whether and when to sell a property, and we have no obligation to sell properties at any particular time or at all. We cannot predict with any certainty the various market conditions affecting real estate investments that will exist at any particular time in the future. As such, we may be purchasing our properties at a time when capitalization rates are at historically low levels and purchase prices are high. In addition, we may be required to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements before a property can be sold. We may not have adequate funds available to correct such defects or to make such improvements. Moreover, in acquiring a property, we may agree to restrictions that prohibit the sale of that property for a period of time or impose other restrictions, such as a limitation on the amount of debt that can be placed or repaid on that property. We cannot predict the length of time needed to find a willing purchaser and to close the sale of a property. The value of our properties may not increase over time, which may restrict our ability to sell our properties, or in the event we are able to sell such properties, may lead to sale prices less than the prices that we paid to purchase the properties or the price at which we value the property. Additionally, we may incur prepayment penalties in the event we sell a property subject to a mortgage earlier than we otherwise had planned. Accordingly, our ability to realize potential appreciation on our real estate investments and make distributions to our stockholders will, among other things, be dependent upon uncertain market conditions.
•Most of our costs, such as operating and general and administrative expenses, interest expense and real estate acquisition and construction costs, are subject to inflation and may not be recoverable.
A significant portion of our operating expenses is sensitive to inflation. These include expenses for property-related costs such as insurance, utilities and repairs and maintenance. We also have ground lease expenses in certain of our properties. Ground lease costs are contractual, but in some cases, lease payments reset every few years based on changes on consumer price indexes.
Operating expenses on our non-RIDEA properties, with the exception of ground lease rental expenses, are typically recoverable through our lease arrangements, which allow us to pass through substantially all expenses associated with property taxes, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, and other operating expenses (including increases thereto) to our tenants. As of December 31, 2022, the majority of our existing leases were either triple-net leases or leases that allow us to recover certain operating expenses and certain capital expenditures. Our remaining leases are generally modified gross, or base year, leases, which only provide for recoveries of operating expenses above the operating expenses from the initial year within each lease. During inflationary periods, we expect to recover increases in operating expenses from our triple-net leases and our modified gross, or base year, leases. As a result, we do not believe that inflation would result in a significant adverse effect on our net operating income, results of operations, and operating cash flows at the property level. For our RIDEA properties, increases in operating expenses, including labor, that are caused by inflationary pressures will generally be passed through to us and may materially and adversely affect us.
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation costs, as well as professional and legal fees. Annually, our employee compensation is adjusted to reflect merit increases; however, to maintain our ability to successfully compete for the best talent, rising inflation rates has required and may continue to require us to provide compensation increases beyond historical annual merit increases, which may significantly increase our compensation costs. Similarly, professional and legal fees are also subject to the impact of inflation and expected to increase proportionately with increasing market prices for such services. Consequently, inflation is expected to increase our general and administrative expenses over time and may materially and adversely affect us.
Also, during inflationary periods, interest rates have historically increased, which would have a direct effect on the interest expense of our borrowings. Our exposure to increases in interest rates is limited to our variable-rate borrowings, which consist of borrowings under our credit facilities and variable-rate mortgage loans payable. As of December 31, 2022, our outstanding variable-rate borrowings aggregated to $1,651,221,000, all of which was unhedged. In January 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap contract to hedge $275,000,000 of our floating rate term loan under our existing credit facility. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate borrowings. Therefore, a significant increase in inflation rates would have a material adverse impact on our financing costs and interest expense.
We have long term lease agreements with our tenants that contain effective annual rent escalations that were either fixed or indexed based on a consumer price index or other index. We believe our annual lease expirations allow us to reset these leases to market rents upon renewal or re-leasing and that annual rent escalations within our long-term leases are generally sufficient to offset the effect of inflation on non-recoverable costs, such as general and administrative expenses and interest expense. However, it is possible that during higher inflationary periods like the one existing in 2021 and 2022, the impact of
inflation will not be adequately offset by the resetting of rents from our renewal and re-leasing activities and our annual rent escalations. As a result, during periods when the impact of inflation exceeds the annual rent escalation percentages in our current leases and the percentage increase in rents in new leases, our financial results will be impaired, potentially significantly.
Additionally, inflationary pricing may have a negative effect on the real estate acquisitions and construction costs necessary to complete our development and redevelopment projects, including, but not limited to, costs of construction materials, labor, and services from third-party contractors and suppliers. Higher acquisition and construction costs could adversely impact our net investments in real estate and expected yields in our development and redevelopment projects, which may make otherwise lucrative investment opportunities less profitable to us. Any of these matters may materially and adversely affect us over time.
Our real estate assets may decline in value and be subject to significant impairment losses, which may reduce our net income.
We periodically evaluate long-lived assets, primarily consisting of investments in real estate that are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In our evaluation of impairment, we consider indicators such as significant negative industry or economic trends, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results and a significant change in the extent or manner in which the asset is used or significant physical change in the asset. If indicators of impairment of long-lived assets are present, we evaluate the carrying value of the related real estate investment in relation to the future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying operations. In performing this evaluation, we consider market conditions and our current intentions with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. If we determine that an impairment has occurred, we would be required to make a downward adjustment to the net book value of the property, which could have a material adverse effect on us in the period in which the impairment charge is recorded. We have recorded impairment charges related to certain properties in the year ended December 31, 2022, and may record future impairments based on actual results and changes in circumstances. Negative developments in the real estate market may cause management to reevaluate the business and macro-economic assumptions used in its impairment analysis. Changes in management’s assumptions based on actual results may have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Our high concentrations of properties in particular geographic areas magnify the effects of negative conditions affecting those geographic areas.
We have a concentration of properties in particular geographic areas; therefore, any adverse situation that disproportionately effects one of those areas would have a magnified adverse effect on our portfolio. As of March 17, 2023, properties located in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan accounted for approximately 37.8%, 11.9% and 10.7%, respectively, of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized NOI. Accordingly, there is a geographic concentration of risk subject to fluctuations in each such state’s economy, real estate and other market conditions.
•Our real estate investments may be concentrated in MOBs,OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs hospitals or other healthcare-related facilities, making us more vulnerable to negative factors affecting these classes than if our investments were diversified beyond the healthcare industry.
As a REIT, we invest primarily in real estate. Within the real estate industry, we have acquired, and may continue to acquire, or selectively develop and own MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities. We are subject to risks inherent in concentrating investments in real estate. These risks resulting from a lack of diversification become even greater as a result of our business objectives and growth strategies, which involve investing substantially all of our assets in clinical healthcare real estate.
A downturn in the commercial real estate industry generally could significantly adversely affect the value of our properties. A downturn in the healthcare industry could negatively affect our lessees’ ability to make lease payments to us and our operators’ ability to manage our properties efficiently and effectively. These matters could materially and adversely affect us and could be more pronounced than if we diversified our investments outside of real estate or if our portfolio did not include a substantial concentration in MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals or healthcare-related facilities.
Terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war, political protests and unrest or public health crises have affected and may affect the markets in which we operate and have a material adverse effect on us.
Terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war, political protests and unrest or public health crises (including the COVID-19 pandemic) have negatively affected, and may continue to negatively affect, our operations and our stockholders’ investments. We have acquired, and may continue to acquire, real estate assets located in areas that are susceptible to terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war, political protests or public health crises. These events may directly impact the value of our assets through
damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs. Although we may obtain terrorism insurance, we may not be able to obtain sufficient coverage to fund any losses we may incur. Risks associated with potential acts of terrorism could sharply increase the premiums we pay for coverage against property and casualty claims. Further, certain losses resulting from these types of events are uninsurable or not insurable at reasonable costs. In addition, other than any reserves we may establish, we have no source of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured damaged property, and we cannot assure our stockholders that any such sources of funding will be available to us for such purposes in the future. Also, to the extent we must pay unexpectedly large amounts for uninsured losses, our cash flows could be impaired in a manner that would result in little or no cash being distributed to our stockholders. More generally, any terrorist attack, other act of violence or war, political protest and unrest or public health crisis could result in increased volatility in, or damage to, the United States and worldwide financial markets and economy, all of which could adversely affect our tenants’ ability to pay rent on their leases with us, our operators’ ability to manage our properties efficiently and effectively and our ability to borrow money or issue capital stock on favorable terms, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our business, tenants, residents and operators may face litigation and experience rising liability and insurance costs, which may materially and adversely affect us.
We currently intend to pursue insurance recovery for any losses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but there can be no assurance that coverage will be available under our existing policies or if such coverage is available, which and how much of our losses will be covered and what other limitations may apply. Due to the likely increase in claims as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, insurance companies may limit or stop offering coverage to companies like ours for pandemic related claims and/or significantly increase the cost of insurance so that it is no longer available at commercially reasonable rates.
With respect to our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, we are ultimately responsible for operational risks and other liabilities of the facility, other than those arising out of certain actions by our operator, such as gross negligence or willful misconduct. As such, operational risks include, and our resulting revenues therefore depend on, the availability and cost of general and professional liability insurance coverage or increases in insurance policy deductibles. Furthermore, because we bear such operational risks and liabilities related to our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, we may be directly adversely impacted by potential litigation or investigations related to the COVID-19 pandemic that have occurred or may occur at those facilities, and our insurance coverage may not cover or may not be sufficient to cover any potential losses.
Additionally, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the cost of insurance for our tenants, operators and residents is expected to increase as well, and such insurance may not cover certain claims related to COVID-19, which could impair their ability to pay rent to us. Our exposure to COVID-19 related litigation or investigation risk may be further increased if our operators or residents of such facilities are subject to bankruptcy or insolvency.
Any of these matters could materially and adversely affect us.
If we contract with a development company for newly developed property, our earnest money deposit made to the development company may not be fully refunded.
We may acquire one or more properties under development. We anticipate that if we do acquire properties that are under development, we will be obligated to pay a substantial earnest money deposit at the time of contracting to acquire such properties, and that we will be required to close the purchase of the property upon completion of the development of the property. We may enter into such a contract with the development company even if at the time we enter into the contract, we have not yet secured sufficient financing to enable us to close the purchase of such property. However, we may not be required to close a purchase from the development company, and may be entitled to a refund of our earnest money, generally in any of the following circumstances depending on the contract:
•the development company fails to complete the development of the property according to contractual requirements;
•all or a specified portion of the pre-leased tenants fail to take possession under their leases for any reason; or
•we are unable to secure sufficient financing to pay the purchase price at closing.
The obligation of the development company to refund our earnest money deposit will be unsecured, and we may not be able to obtain a refund of such earnest money deposit from it under these circumstances since the development company may be an entity without substantial assets or operations.
We may not retain any profits resulting from the sale of our properties, or receive such profits in a timely manner, because we may provide financing to the purchaser of such property.
When we decide to sell one of our properties, we may provide financing to the purchasers. When we provide financing to purchasers, we will bear the risk that the purchaser may default on its obligations under the financing, which could negatively
impact cash flows from operations. Even in the absence of a purchaser default, the distribution of sale proceeds or their reinvestment in other assets, will be delayed until the promissory notes or other property we may accept upon the sale are actually paid, sold, refinanced or otherwise disposed of. In some cases, we may receive initial down payments in cash and other property in the year of sale in an amount less than the selling price, and subsequent payments will be spread over a number of years. Additionally, if any purchaser defaults under a financing arrangement with us, it could negatively impact our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
Representations and warranties made by us in connection with sales of our properties may subject us to liability that could materially and adversely affect us.
When we sell a property, we have been required, and may continue to be required, to make representations and warranties regarding the property and other customary items. In the event of a breach of such representations or warranties, the purchaser of the property may have claims for damages against us, rights to indemnification from us or otherwise have remedies against us. In any such case, we may incur liabilities that could materially and adversely affect us.
We face possible liability for environmental cleanup costs and damages for contamination related to properties we acquire, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Because we own and operate real estate, we are subject to various international, U.S. federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations. Under these laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. The costs of removal or remediation could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Under such laws, a current owner or operator of property can be held liable for contamination on the property caused by the former owner or operator. Environmental laws also may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures. Environmental laws provide for sanctions in the event of noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including the release of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real estate for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances. In addition, new or more stringent laws or stricter interpretations of existing laws could change the cost of compliance or liabilities and restrictions arising out of such laws. The cost of defending against these claims, complying with environmental regulatory requirements, conducting remediation of any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury claims could be substantial and could materially and adversely affect us. In addition, the presence of hazardous substances on a property or the failure to meet environmental regulatory requirements may materially impair our ability to use, lease or sell a property, or to use the property as collateral for borrowing.
Our current and future properties and our tenants may be unable to compete successfully, which could result in lower rent payments and could materially and adversely affect us.
Our current and future properties often will face competition from nearby properties that provide comparable services. Some of those competing properties are owned by governmental agencies and supported by tax revenues, and others are owned by nonprofit corporations and may be supported to a large extent by endowments and charitable contributions. These types of support are not available to our properties. Operators of competing properties may provide superior services than those provided by our operators, which could reduce the competitiveness of our properties, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Similarly, our MOB and senior housing—leased tenants face competition from other medical practices in nearby hospitals and other medical facilities and their failure to compete successfully with these other practices could adversely affect their ability to make rental payments to us, which could materially and adversely affect us. Further, from time to time and for reasons beyond our control, referral sources, including physicians and managed care organizations, may change their lists of hospitals or physicians to which they refer patients or that are permitted to participate in the payor program. This could also adversely affect our tenants’ ability to make rental payments to us, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Ownership of property outside the United States may subject us to different or greater risks than those associated with our domestic operations.
As of December 31, 2022, we had $68,085,000 invested in the United Kingdom, or UK, and the Isle of Man, or 1.4% of our portfolio, based on our aggregate purchase price of real estate investments. International development, ownership, and operating activities involve risks that are different from those we face with respect to our domestic development, ownership, and operating activities. For example, we have limited investing experience in international markets. If we are unable to
successfully manage the risks associated with international expansion and operations, we may be materially and adversely affected.
Additionally, our ownership of properties in the UK and the Isle of Man currently subjects us to fluctuations in the exchange rates between U.S. dollars and the UK Pound Sterling, which may, from time to time, impact our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Revenues generated from any properties or other real estate-related investments we acquire or ventures we enter into relating to transactions involving assets located in markets outside the United States likely will be denominated in the local currency. Therefore, any investments we make outside the United States will subject us to foreign currency risk due to potential fluctuations in exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar, and there can be no assurance that any attempt to mitigate foreign currency risk through hedging transactions or otherwise will be successful. As a result, changes in exchange rates of any such foreign currency to U.S. dollars may materially and adversely affect us and the book value of our assets. In addition, changes in foreign currency exchange rates used to value a REIT’s foreign assets may be considered changes in the value of the REIT’s assets. These changes may adversely affect our status as a REIT. Further, bank accounts in a foreign currency which are not considered cash or cash equivalents may adversely affect our status as a REIT.
Acquired properties may expose us to unknown liability.
We may acquire properties or invest in joint ventures that own properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, against the prior owners or other third parties with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle or contest it, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flow. Unknown liabilities with respect to acquired properties might include liabilities for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination, claims by tenants, vendors or other persons against the former owners of the properties, liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business, and claims for indemnification by general partners, directors and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties.
Severe weather events, natural disasters and the effects of climate change and regulatory and societal responses thereto could materially and adversely affect us.
Natural disasters and severe weather events, including earthquakes, fires, storms, tornados, floods, hurricanes, snow and freezing temperatures could cause significant damage to our properties and the surrounding environment or area. Climate change is causing such events to become more frequent and increasingly severe in their effects, which could increase the costs to and impact on us and our operators over time. The effects of such events on our properties may include increased operational costs, including energy costs, delays and cost increases in our construction projects, damage to our facilities and periods when impacted facilities may be partially or wholly unoccupied, power outages and reputational damage.
Additionally, international, governmental, and societal responses to climate change may materially and adversely affect us or our operators’, including through shifts in fuel sources leading to short or long-term increases in energy costs and new and more stringent building codes pertaining to energy efficiency, reduced emissions, or weather resistance that may be more costly to comply with, any of which could increase our building costs and our and our operators’ capital expenditures, maintenance, and operating costs. These and other changes in federal, state, or local regulation or in societal expectations could materially and adversely affect us directly or indirectly through the impact on our operators.
Risks Related to Real Estate-Related Investments
•Unfavorable real estate market conditions and delays in liquidating defaulted mortgage loan investments may negatively impact mortgage loans in which we have invested and may invest, which could result in losses to us.
The investment in mortgage loans or mortgage-backed securities we have made, and may continue to make, involve special risks relating to the particular borrower or issuer of the mortgage-backed securities and we will be at risk of loss on those investments, including losses as a result of defaults on our mortgage loan investments. These losses may be caused by many conditions beyond our control, including economic conditions affecting real estate values, tenant defaults and lease expirations, interest rate levels, and the other economic and liability risks associated with real estate. If we acquire property by foreclosure following defaults under our mortgage loan investments, we will have the economic and liability risks as the owner described above. We do not know whether the values of the property securing any of our mortgage loan investments will remain at the levels existing on the dates we initially make the related investment. If the values of the underlying properties drop, our risk will increase and the values of our interests may decrease. Furthermore, if there are defaults under our mortgage loan investments, we may not be able to foreclose on or obtain a suitable remedy with respect to such investments. Specifically, we may not be able to repossess and sell the underlying properties quickly, which could reduce the value of our investment. For example, an action to foreclose on a property securing a mortgage loan is regulated by state statutes and rules and is subject to many of the delays and expenses of lawsuits if the defendant raises defenses or counterclaims. Additionally, in the event of default by a mortgagor, these restrictions, among other things, may impede our ability to foreclose on or sell the mortgaged property or to obtain proceeds sufficient to repay all amounts due to us on the mortgage loan.
The commercial mortgage-backed securities in which we have invested, and may continue to invest, are subject to several types of risks.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities are securities which evidence interests in, or are secured by, a single commercial mortgage loan or a pool of commercial mortgage loans. Accordingly, the commercial mortgage-backed securities in which we have invested, and may continue to invest, are subject to all the risks of the underlying mortgage loans.
In a rising interest rate environment, the value of commercial mortgage-backed securities may be adversely affected when payments on underlying mortgages loan(s) do not occur as anticipated, resulting in the extension of the security’s effective maturity and the related increase in interest rate sensitivity of a longer-term instrument. The value of commercial mortgage-backed securities may also change due to shifts in the market’s perception of securitization sponsors and borrower sponsors and regulatory or tax changes adversely affecting the mortgage securities markets as a whole. In addition, commercial mortgage-backed securities are subject to the credit risk associated with the performance of the underlying mortgage properties.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities are also subject to several risks created through the securitization structuring process. Subordinate commercial mortgage-backed securities are paid to the extent that there are funds available to make payments. To the extent the collateral pool includes a large percentage of delinquent loans, there is a risk that payments on subordinate commercial mortgage-backed securities will not be fully paid. In addition, commercial mortgage-backed securities are also subject to greater credit risk than those commercial mortgage-backed securities of the same series that are more highly rated.
The mezzanine loans in which we have invested in the past, and may continue to invest, involve greater risks of loss than senior loans secured by income-producing real estate.
We have in the past, and may in the future, invest in mezzanine loans that take the form of subordinated loans secured by second mortgages on the underlying real estate or loans secured by a pledge of the ownership interests of either the entity owning the real estate or the entity that owns the interest in the entity owning the real estate. These types of investments involve a higher degree of risk than long-term senior mortgage lending secured by income-producing real estate because the investment may become unsecured as a result of foreclosure by the senior lender. In the event of a bankruptcy of the entity providing the pledge of its ownership interests as security, we may not have full recourse to the assets of such entity or the assets of the entity may not be sufficient to satisfy our mezzanine loan. If a borrower defaults on our mezzanine loan or debt senior to our loan or in the event of a borrower bankruptcy, our mezzanine loan will be satisfied only after the senior debt. As a result, we may not recover some or all of our investment. In addition, mezzanine loans may have higher loan-to-value ratios than conventional mortgage loans, resulting in less equity in the real estate and increasing the risk of loss of principal.
We expect a portion of our real estate-related investments to be illiquid, and we may not be able to adjust our portfolio in a timely manner in response to changes in economic and other conditions.
We may acquire real estate-related investments in connection with privately negotiated transactions which are not registered under the relevant securities laws, resulting in a prohibition against their transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition except in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of, or is otherwise not subject to, those laws. As a result, our ability to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions may be relatively limited. The mezzanine and bridge loans we may purchase will be particularly illiquid investments due to their short life, their unsuitability for securitization, and the greater difficulty of recoupment in the event of a borrower’s default.
Bridge loans involve a greater risk of loss than traditional investment-grade mortgage loans with fully insured borrowers.
We have in the past, and may in the future, acquire bridge loans secured by first lien mortgages on a property to borrowers who are typically seeking short-term capital to be used in an acquisition, construction or rehabilitation of a property, or other short-term liquidity needs. The typical borrower under a bridge loan has usually identified an undervalued asset that has been under-managed and/or is located in a recovering market. If the market in which the asset is located fails to recover according to the borrower’s projections, or if the borrower fails to improve the quality of the asset’s management and/or the value of the asset, the borrower may not receive a sufficient return on the asset to satisfy the bridge loan, and we bear the risk that we may not recover some or all of our initial expenditure.
In addition, borrowers usually use the proceeds of a conventional mortgage to repay a bridge loan. A bridge loan therefore is subject to the risk of a borrower’s inability to obtain permanent financing to repay the bridge loan. Bridge loans are also subject to risks of borrower defaults, bankruptcies, fraud, losses, and special hazard losses that are not covered by standard hazard insurance. In the event of any default under bridge loans held by us, we bear the risk of loss of principal and non-payment of interest and fees to the extent of any deficiency between the value of the mortgage collateral and the principal amount and unpaid interest of the bridge loan. To the extent we suffer such losses with respect to our bridge loans, we may be materially and adversely affected.
If we sell real estate-related investments prior to their maturity, we may be forced to sell those investments on unfavorable terms or at a loss.
Our board may choose to sell certain of our assets from time to time, including our real estate-related investments. If we plan to sell those investments prior to their maturity, we may be forced to do so at undesirable times and on unfavorable terms, which may result in losses. For instance, if we sell mortgage loans at a time when prevailing interest rates are higher than the interest rates of such mortgage loans, we would likely sell such loans at a discount to their stated principal values.
Risks Related to the Healthcare Industry
•The healthcare industry is heavily regulated, and new laws or regulations, changes to existing laws or regulations, loss of licensure or failure to obtain licensure could result in the inability of our tenants to make rent payments to us or adversely affect our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures.
The healthcare industry is heavily regulated by federal, state and local governmental bodies. The tenants and operators
Many of our healthcare facilities and their tenants and operators require a license or CON. Failure to obtain a license or CON, or the loss of a required license or CON, would prevent a facility from operating in the manner intended by the tenant or operator. These events could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or for an operator to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. Similarly, state and local laws also may regulate expansion, including the addition of new beds or services or the acquisition of medical equipment at a facility, and the construction of healthcare-related facilities, by requiring a CON or other similar approval. State CON laws and other similar laws are not uniform throughout the United States and are subject to change. Restrictions on the expansion of our facilities could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or for an operator to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. We cannot predict the impact of state CON laws or similar laws on our development or expansion of facilities or the operations of our tenants or operators.
In addition, in certain areas state CON laws materially limit the ability of competitors to enter into the markets served by our facilities, thereby limiting competition. The repeal of CON laws could allow competitors to freely operate in previously closed markets. Any such increased competition could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or for an operator to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. These CON laws could also restrict our ability to expand in new markets.
In certain circumstances, loss of state licensure or certification or closure of a facility could ultimately result in loss of authority to operate the facility or provide services at the facility and require new CON authorization licensure and/or authorization or potential authorization from CMS to re-institute operations. As a result, the value of the facility may be reduced, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Reductions in reimbursement•Reimbursement rates from third-party payors, including Medicare and Medicaid, that do not rise as quickly, or at all, compared to the rate of inflation, could adversely affect theour tenants’ operations of our tenants and their ability to make rental payments to us or our operators’ ability to operateprofitability from operating facilities held in RIDEA structures, either of which could materially and adversely affect us.structures.
Sources of revenue for our tenants and operators may include the federal Medicare program, state Medicaid programs, private insurance carriers and health maintenance organizations, among others. Efforts by such payors to reduce healthcare costs will likely continue, which may result in reductions or slower growth in reimbursement for certain services provided by some of our tenants and operators, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, the healthcare billing rules and regulations are complex, and the failure of any of our tenants or operators to comply with various laws and regulations could jeopardize their ability to continue participating in Medicare, Medicaid, and other government sponsored payment programs. Moreover, the state and federal governmental healthcare payment programs are subject to reductions by state and federal legislative actions, and changes in reimbursement models may reduce our tenants’ and operators’ revenues and adversely affect our tenants’ ability to make rent payments to us or our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
The healthcare industry continues to face various challenges, including increased government and private payor pressure on healthcare providers to control or reduce costs. It is possible that our tenants and operators will continue to experience a shift in payor mix away from fee-for-service payors, resulting in an increase in the percentage of revenues attributable to reimbursement based upon value-based principles and quality driven managed care programs, and general industry trends that include pressures to control healthcare costs. Pressures to control healthcare costs and a shift away from traditional health insurance reimbursement based upon a fee for service payment to payment based upon quality outcomes have increased the uncertainty of payments.
In addition, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, or the Healthcare Reform Act, was passed with an intent to reduce the number of individuals in the United States without health insurance and effect significant other changes to the ways in which healthcare is organized, delivered and reimbursed. Included within the legislation is a limitation on physician-owned hospitals from expanding facility capacity, unless the facility satisfies very narrow federal exceptions to this limitation. Therefore, if our tenants are physicians that own and refer to a hospital, the hospital may be limited in its operations and expansion potential, which may limit the hospital’s services and resulting revenues and may impact the owner’s ability to make rental payments.
Furthermore, the Healthcare Reform Act included new payment models with new shared savings programs and demonstration programs that include bundled payment models and payments contingent upon reporting on satisfaction of quality benchmarks. The new payment models will likely change how physicians are paid for services. These changes could negatively affect some of our tenants and operators, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 was signed into law and repealed the individual mandate financial penalty portion of the Healthcare Reform Act beginning in 2019. With the elimination of the individual mandate enforcement mechanism, several states brought suit seeking to invalidate the entire Healthcare Reform Act. On June 17, 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed this lawsuit without specifically ruling on the constitutionality of the law. However, challenges to the Healthcare Reform Act may continue. If all or a portion of the Healthcare Reform Act, including the individual mandate, is eventually ruled unconstitutional, our tenants and operators may have more patients and residents who do not have insurance coverage, which may adversely impact the tenants’ and operators’ collections and revenues. Additionally, in October 2022, the Biden Administration announced new actions by CMS to strengthen accountability for nursing homes participating in the Special Focus Facilities, or SFF, an oversight program designed to monitor poor-performing nursing homes. These reforms include strengthened penalties for SFF nursing homes that fail to improve, increases in safety standards that SFF nursing homes must implement and increased communication between CMS and SFF nursing homes. The announcement further noted that the administration will continue to take administrative action to improve oversight of nursing homes moving forward. The financial impact on our tenants and operators could adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We cannot predict the ultimate content, timing or effect of any further healthcare reform legislation or the impact of potential legislation on us. We expect that additional state and federal healthcare reform measures will be adopted in the future, any of which could limit the amounts that federal and state governments will pay for healthcare services, which may adversely impact our tenants’ ability to make rental payments to us or our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures efficiently, either of, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
If seniors delay moving to senior housing facilities until they require greater care or forgo moving to senior housing facilities altogether, such action could have a material adverse effect on us.
Seniors have been increasingly delaying their moves to senior housing facilities, including to our senior housing—leased facilities and SHOP, until they require greater care and are increasingly forgoing moving to senior housing facilities altogether. Further, rehabilitation therapy and other services are increasingly being provided to seniors on an outpatient basis or in seniors’ personal residences in response to market demand and government regulation, which may increase the trend for seniors to delay moving to senior housing facilities. Such delays may cause decreases in occupancy rates and increases in resident turnover rates at our senior housing facilities. Moreover, seniors may have greater care needs and require higher acuity services, which may increase our tenants’ and operators’ cost of business, expose our tenants and operators to additional liability, or result in lost business and shorter stays at our leased and managed senior housing facilities if our tenants and operators are not able to provide the requisite care services or fail to adequately provide those services. These trends may negatively impact the occupancy rates and revenues at our leased and managed senior housing, which could have a material adverse effect on us. Further, if any of our tenants or operators are unable to offset lost revenues from these trends by providing and growing other revenue sources, such as new or increased service offerings to seniors, our senior housing facilities may be unprofitable, we may receive lower returns and rent, and the value of our senior housing facilities may decline.
Events that adversely affect the ability of seniors and their families to afford resident fees at our senior housing facilities could cause our occupancy rates and revenues to decline, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Costs to seniors associated with independent and assisted living services are generally not reimbursable under Medicare, and the scope of services that may be covered by Medicaid varies by state. In many cases, only seniors with income or assets meeting or exceeding the comparable median in the regions where our facilities are located typically will be able to afford to pay the entrance fees and monthly resident fees, and a weak economy, depressed housing market or changes in demographics could adversely affect their continued ability to do so. If our tenants and operators are unable to retain and attract seniors with sufficient income, assets or other resources required to pay the fees associated with independent and assisted living services and other services provided by our tenants and operators at our healthcare facilities, our occupancy rates and revenues could decline, which could, in turn, materially and adversely affect us.
Some tenants and operators of our facilities will be subject to fraud and abuse laws, the violation of which could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
There are various federal, foreign and state laws prohibiting fraudulent and abusive business practices by healthcare providers who participate in, receive payments from, or are in a position to make referrals in connection with government-sponsored healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. Our contractual arrangements with tenants and operators may also be subject to these fraud and abuse laws, including federal laws such as the Anti-Kickback Statute and the Stark Law. Moreover, our agreements with tenants and operators may be required to satisfy individual state law requirements that vary from state to state, which impacts the terms and conditions that may be negotiated in such agreements.
These federal and foreign laws include:
•the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a criminal law which prohibits, among other things, the offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of remuneration, directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or in kind, in return for, or to induce, the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any item or service for which payment may be made under a federal healthcare program such as Medicare and Medicaid;
•the Federal Physician Self-Referral Prohibition, which, subject to specific exceptions, restricts physicians from making referrals for specifically designated health services for which payment may be made under federal healthcare programs to an entity with which the physician, or an immediate family member, has a financial relationship;
•the False Claims Act, which prohibits any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, false or fraudulent claims for payment or approval that are false or fraudulent or making a false statement to avoid, decrease or conceal an obligation to pay money to the federal government, including claims paid by the Medicare and Medicaid programs;
•the Civil Monetary Penalties Law, which authorizes the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services to impose monetary penalties or exclusion from participating in state or federal healthcare programs for certain fraudulent acts;
•the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, which makes it a federal crime to defraud any health benefit plan, including private payors;
•the Exclusions Law, which authorizes the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services to exclude persons or entities from participating in state or federal healthcare programs for certain fraudulent acts; and
•the UK Bribery Act 2010, a criminal law which relates to any function of a public nature, connected with a business, performed in the course of a person’s employment or performed on behalf of a company or another body of persons, covering bribery both in the public and private sectors.
Each of these laws includes criminal and/or civil penalties for violations that range from punitive sanctions, damage assessments, penalties, imprisonment, denial of Medicare and Medicaid payments and/or exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Monetary penalties associated with violations of these laws have been increased in recent years. Certain laws, such as the False Claims Act, allow for individuals to bring whistleblower actions on behalf of the government for violations thereof. Additionally, states in which the facilities are located may have similar fraud and abuse laws. Investigation by a federal or state governmental body for violation of fraud and abuse laws or imposition of any of these penalties upon one of our tenants or operators could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Efforts to ensure compliance with applicable healthcare laws and regulations may cause our tenants and operators to incur substantial costs that could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Adverse trends in healthcare provider operations may materially and adversely affect us.
The healthcare industry is currently experiencing:
•changes in the demand for and methods of delivering healthcare services;
•changes in third-party reimbursement policies;
•significant unused capacity in certain areas, which has created substantial competition for patients among healthcare providers in those areas;
•increased expenses for uninsured patients;
•increased competition among healthcare providers;
•increased liability insurance expenses;
•continued pressure by private and governmental payors to reduce payments to providers of services;
•increased scrutiny of billing, referral and other practices by federal and state authorities;
•changes in federal and state healthcare program payment models;
•increased emphasis on compliance with privacy and security requirements related to personal health information; and
•increased instability in the Health Insurance Exchange market and lack of access to insurance plans participating in the exchange.
Additionally, in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, many governmental entities relaxed certain licensure and other regulatory requirements relating to telemedicine, allowing more patients to virtually access care without having to visit a healthcare facility. If governmental and regulatory authorities continue to allow for increased virtual healthcare, this may affect the demand for some of our properties, such as MOBs.
These factors may negatively affect the economic performance of some or all of our tenants and operators, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our tenants and operators may be affected by the financial deterioration, insolvency and/or bankruptcy of other companies in the healthcare industry.
Certain companies in the healthcare industry, including some key senior housing operators, are experiencing considerable financial, legal and/or regulatory difficulties which have resulted or may result in financial deterioration and, in some cases, insolvency and/or bankruptcy. The adverse effects on these companies could have a significant impact on the industry as a whole, including but not limited to negative public perception by investors, lenders, patients and residents. As a result, our tenants and properties managed by our operators could experience the damaging financial effects of a weakened industry sector driven by negative headlines, and we could be materially and adversely affected.
Our tenants and operators may be subject to significant legal and regulatory actions that could subject them to increased operating costs and substantial uninsured liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our tenants and operators may become subject to claims that their services have resulted in patient injury or other adverse effects. Healthcare providers have experienced an increasing trend in the frequency and severity of professional liability and general liability insurance claims and litigation asserted against them. The insurance coverage maintained by our tenants and operators may not cover all claims made against them nor continue to be available at a reasonable cost, if at all. In some states, insurance coverage for the risk of punitive damages arising from professional liability and general liability claims and/or litigation may not, in certain cases, be available to our tenants and operators due to state law prohibitions or limitations of availability. As a result, tenants and operators of our MOBs, senior housing, SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities operating in these states may be liable for punitive damage awards that are either not covered or are in excess of their insurance policy limits. We also believe that there has been, and will continue to be, an increase in regulatory or other governmental investigations of certain healthcare providers, particularly in the area of Medicare/Medicaid false claims, as well as an increase in enforcement actions resulting from these investigations. Insurance may not always be available to cover such losses. Any adverse determination in a legal proceeding or regulatory or other governmental investigation, whether currently asserted or arising in the future, could negatively affect a tenant’s or operator’s business and financial strength. If a tenant or
operator is unable to obtain or maintain insurance coverage, if judgments are obtained in excess of the insurance coverage, if uninsured punitive damages are required to be paid, or if an uninsurable government enforcement action is brought, the tenant or operator could be exposed to substantial additional liabilities, which may affect the tenant’s ability to pay rent to us or the operator’s ability to manage our properties efficiently and effectively, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs may be subject to various government reviews, audits and investigations that could materially and adversely affect us, including an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us, potential criminal charges, the imposition of fines and/or the loss of the right to participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs.
We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs are subject to various governmental reviews, audits and investigations to verify compliance with the Medicaid and Medicare programs and applicable laws and regulations. We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs are also subject to audits under various government programs, including Recovery Audit Contractors, Unified Program Integrity Contractors, and other third party audit programs, in which third-party firms engaged by CMS conduct extensive reviews of claims data and medical and other records to identify potential improper payments under the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Private pay sources also reserve the right to conduct audits. An adverse review, audit or investigation could result in:
•an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us, our tenants or our operators pursuant to the Medicare or Medicaid programs or from private payors, in amounts that could be material to us;
•state or federal agencies imposing fines, penalties and other sanctions on us, our tenants or our operators;
•loss of our right, our tenants’ right or our operators’ right to participate in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or one or more private payor networks;
•an increase in private litigation against us, our tenants or our operators; and
•damage to our reputation in various markets.
While we, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs have always been subject to post-payment audits and reviews, more intensive “probe reviews” appear to be a permanent procedure with our fiscal intermediaries. If the government or a court were to conclude that such errors, deficiencies or disagreements constituted criminal violations or were to conclude that such errors, deficiencies or disagreements resulted in the submission of false claims to federal healthcare programs, or if the government were to discover other problems in addition to the ones identified by the probe reviews that rose to actionable levels, our tenants and operators might face potential criminal charges and/or civil claims, administrative sanctions and penalties for amounts that could be material to us. In addition, other key personnel and our tenants and operators and their other key personnel could be temporarily or permanently excluded from future participation in state and federal healthcare reimbursement programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. In any event, it is likely that a governmental investigation alone, regardless of its outcome, would divert material time, resources and attention from our management team and our staff or those of our tenants and our operators and could materially and adversely affect us during and after any such investigation or proceedings.
In cases where claim and documentation review by any CMS contractor results in repeated poor performance, a facility can be subjected to protracted oversight. This oversight may include repeat education and re-probe, extended pre-payment review, referral to recovery audit or integrity contractors, or extrapolation of an error rate to other reimbursement outside of specifically reviewed claims. Sustained failure to demonstrate improvement towards meeting all claim filing and documentation requirements could ultimately lead to Medicare and Medicaid decertification, which materially and adversely affects us. Adverse actions by CMS may also cause third party payor or licensure authorities to audit our tenants or operators. These additional audits could result in termination of third-party payor agreements or licensure of the facility, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
In addition, our tenants and operators that accepted relief funds distributed to combat the adverse effects of COVID-19 and reimburse providers for unreimbursed expenses and lost revenues may be subject to certain reporting and auditing obligations associated with the receipt of such relief funds. If these tenants or operators fail to comply with the terms and conditions associated with relief funds, they may be subject to government recovery and enforcement actions. Furthermore, regulatory guidance relating to use of the relief funds, recordkeeping requirements and other terms and conditions continues to evolve and there is a high degree of uncertainty surrounding many aspects of the relief funds. This uncertainty may create compliance challenges for tenants and operators who accepted relief funds.
The Healthcare Reform Act and similar foreign laws impose additional requirements regarding compliance and disclosure.
The Healthcare Reform Act requires SNFs to have a compliance and ethics program that is effective in preventing and detecting criminal, civil and administrative violations and in promoting quality of care. The U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services included in the final rule published on October 4, 2016 the requirement for operators to implement a compliance and ethics program as a condition of participation in Medicare and Medicaid. Long-term care facilities, including SNFs, had until November 28, 2019 to comply. If our operators fall short in their compliance and ethics programs and quality assurance and performance improvement programs, if and when required, their reputations and ability to attract patients and residents could be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Similar requirements also apply to healthcare properties in the UK under national law and guidance. The Health & Care Professions Council, the regulator of health, psychological and care professionals in the UK, requires a qualification to demonstrate standards of proficiency and also set standards, hold a register, quality assure education and investigate complaints. They have set out an ethical framework with standards of conduct, performance and ethics including restrictions on confidentiality and the use of social media. If any of our operators in the UK fall short in their obligations, their reputations and ability to attract patients and residents may be adversely affect which might have a material adverse effect on their business and by extension us.
Risks Related to Joint Ventures
•Property ownership through joint ventures could limit our control of those investments or our decisions with respect to other investments, restrict our ability to operate and finance properties on our terms, and reduce their expected return.
In connection with the purchase of real estate, we have entered, and may continue to enter, into joint ventures with third parties. We may also purchase or develop properties in co-ownership arrangements with the property sellers, developers or other parties. We may own properties through both consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. These structures involve participation in the investment by other parties whose interests and rights may not be the same as ours. Our joint ventures, and joint ventures we may enter into in the future, may involve risks not present with respect to our wholly owned properties, including the following:
•we may share with, or even delegate decision-making authority to, our joint venture partners regarding certain major decisions affecting the ownership or operation of the joint venture and the joint venture property, such as, but not limited to, (1) additional capital contribution requirements, (2) obtaining, refinancing or paying off debt and (3) obtaining consent prior to the sale or transfer of our interest in the joint venture to a third party, which may prevent us from taking actions that are opposed by our joint venture partners;
•our joint venture partners may have business interests or goals with respect to the joint venture property that conflict with our business interests and goals, which could increase the likelihood of disputes regarding the ownership, management or disposition of the property;
•in some instances, we may enter into arrangements with our joint venture partners that may (1) require an acquisition opportunity to be allocated to the joint venture when we otherwise may have acquired the asset ourselves or (2) cause the joint venture to sell an asset at a time when we otherwise may not have initiated such a transaction;
•disputes may develop with our joint venture partners over decisions affecting the joint venture property or the joint venture, which may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and distract our officers from focusing their time and effort on our business, disrupt the day-to-day operations of the property, such as by delaying the implementation of important decisions until the conflict is resolved, have an adverse impact on the operations and profitability of the joint venture and possibly force a sale of the property if the dispute cannot be resolved;
•our joint venture partners may be unable to or refuse to make capital contributions when due, or otherwise fail to meet their obligations, which could require us to fund the shortfall or forego our equity in the joint venture; and
•the activities of a joint venture could adversely affect our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT.
As of December 31, 2022, we indirectly own a 73.1% interest in Trilogy, a consolidated joint venture representing approximately 41.1% of our portfolio (based on aggregate contract purchase price) and contributing approximately 46.8% of our Annualized Base Rent / Annualized NOI as of such date. Approximately 23.1% of Trilogy is indirectly owned by NorthStar Healthcare Income, Inc., or NorthStar, with the remaining 3.8% primarily owned by affiliates of the Trilogy Manager, an eligible independent contractor, or EIK, that manages the day-to-day operations of the joint venture. In addition to relying on the Trilogy Manager to manage the joint venture effectively, our investment in Trilogy exposes us to many of the risks described above with respect to joint venture investments generally. For example, other parties with interests in Trilogy have certain rights that could affect our investment in Trilogy. There are certain decisions that are deemed “major decisions” with respect to Trilogy’s business (such as terminating the management agreement with the Trilogy Manager, taking certain actions under the management agreement, making certain sales of the Trilogy properties, and taking certain other actions with respect
to the Trilogy portfolio) that require the approval of NorthStar. It is possible that NorthStar will have interests that differ from ours, and our ability to pursue our interests we may be limited by their rights under the joint venture arrangements. Additionally, if we seek to transfer our indirect ownership interests in Trilogy, we are required to first offer such interests to NorthStar, which could delay our ability to sell such interests or adversely affect the price we receive in connection with a sale. In addition, in certain circumstances, we and NorthStar have the right to force the sale of all of Trilogy’s assets, provided that, if this right is triggered by a party, the non-triggering party has a right to elect to purchase the Trilogy assets. This could cause us to increase our investment in Trilogy or result in the sale of Trilogy at a time when we would not to choose to effect a sale.
If we serve as a managing member, general partner or controlling party with respect to investments or joint ventures, we may be subject to risks and liabilities that we would not otherwise face.
In certain circumstances, we may serve as managing member, general partner or controlling party with respect to investments and joint ventures. In such instances, we may face additional risks including, among others, the following:
•we may have increased duties to the other investors or partners in the investment or venture;
•in the event of certain events or conflicts, our partners may have recourse against us, including the right to monetary penalties, the ability to force a sale or exit the investment or venture;
•our partners may have the right to remove us as the general partner or managing member in certain cases involving cause; and
•our subsidiaries that would be the general partner or managing member of the investment or venture could be generally liable, under applicable law or the governing agreement of a venture, for the debts and obligations of the investment or venture, subject to certain exculpation and indemnification rights pursuant to the terms of the governing agreement.
We may structure our joint venture relationships in a manner which limits the amount we participate in the cash flows or appreciation of an investment.
We have entered, and may continue to enter, into joint venture agreements, the economic terms of which may provide for the distribution of income to us otherwise than in direct proportion to our ownership interest in the joint venture. For example, while we and another joint venture party may invest an equal amount of capital in an investment, the investment may be structured such that one joint venture partner has a right to priority distributions of cash flows up to a certain target return while another joint venture partner may receive a disproportionately greater share of cash flows once such target return has been achieved. This type of investment structure may result in our joint venture partner receiving more of the cash flows, including any from appreciation, of an investment than we receive. If we do not accurately judge the appreciation prospects of a particular investment or structure the venture appropriately, we may incur losses on joint venture investments or have limited participation in the profits of a joint venture investment, either of which could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
Risks Related to Debt Financing
We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.
•We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.As of December 31, 2022, we had indebtedness of $2,537,113,000, which comprises $1,282,634,000 in unsecured debt (lines of credit and term loans) and $1,254,479,000 in mortgage loans payable. Though we anticipate that our overall leverage will not exceed 50.0% of the combined fair market value of all of our properties and other real estate-related investments, as determined at the end of each calendar year, our organizational documents do not place a limitation on the amount of leverage that we may incur, and we could incur leverage substantially in excess of this amount. We expect to fund a portion of our cash needs, including funding investment activity, with additional indebtedness. Our ability to access additional debt capital and the cost of other terms thereof will be significantly influenced by our creditworthiness and any rating assigned by a rating agency, as well as by general economic and market conditions. Significant secured and unsecured indebtedness adversely affects our creditworthiness and could prevent us fromachieving an investment grade credit rating or cause a rating agency to lower a rating or to place a rating on a “watchlist” for possible downgrade. Deteriorations in our creditworthiness or in any ratings that we may achieve, or the perception that any such deterioration may occur, would adversely affect our ability to access additional debt capital and increase the cost of any debt capital that is available to us and may require us to accept restrictive covenants. A reduction in our access to debt capital, an increase in the cost thereof or our acceptance of restrictive covenants could limit our ability to achieve our business objectives and pursue our growth strategies.
Additionally, interest rates have significantly increased, and may continue to significantly increase, our interest costs. Expensive debt could reduce or limit our available cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and
development projects, hinder our ability to meet certain debt service ratios under our credit agreements or impose restrictions on our ability to incur additional debt for so long as certain debt service ratios are not met.
We may also incur mortgage debt and other property-level debt on properties that we already own in order to obtain funds to acquire additional properties or make other capital investments. In addition, we may borrow as necessary or advisable to ensure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including borrowings to satisfy the REIT requirement that we distribute at least 90.0% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain any such borrowings on favorable terms or at all.
If we mortgage a property and there is a shortfall between the cash flows from that property and the cash flows needed to service mortgage debt on that property, our financial results would be negatively affected and the amount of cash available for distributions to stockholders would be reduced. In addition, incurring mortgage debt increases the risk of loss of a property since defaults on indebtedness secured by a property may result in lenders initiating foreclosure actions. If any mortgages contain cross-collateralization or cross-default provisions, a default on a single property could affect multiple properties. In addition, lenders may have recourse to assets other than those specifically securing the repayment of indebtedness. For tax purposes, a foreclosure on any of our properties will be treated as a disposition of the property, which could cause us to recognize taxable income on foreclosure, without receiving corresponding cash proceeds. We may give full or partial guarantees to lenders of mortgage debt on behalf of the entities that own our properties. When we give a guaranty on behalf of an entity that owns one of our properties, we will be responsible to the lender for satisfaction of the debt if it is not paid by such entity.
A significant amount of debt subjects us to many risks that, if realized, would materially and adversely affect us, including the risk that:
•our cash flow from operating activities could become insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest on our debt, which would likely result in (i) acceleration of the debt (and any other debt containing a cross-default or cross-acceleration provision), increasing the likelihood of further distress if refinancing is not available on favorable terms or at all, (ii) our inability to borrow undrawn amounts under other existing financing arrangements, even if we have timely made all required payments under such arrangements, further compromising our liquidity and/or (iii) the loss of some or all of our assets that are pledged as collateral in connection with our financing arrangements;
•our debt may increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions with no assurance that such debt will increase our investment returns in an amount sufficient to offset the associated risks relating to leverage;
•we may be required to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operating activities to payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for operations, future business opportunities, stockholder distributions and/or other purposes; and
•to the extent the maturity of certain debt occurs prior to the maturity of a related asset pledged or transferred as collateral for such debt, we may not be able to refinance that debt on favorable terms or at all, which may reduce available liquidity and/or cause significant losses to us.
To the extent we borrow funds at floating interest rates, we will be adversely affected by rising interest rates unless fully hedged. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt.
Interest we pay on our debt obligations reduces our financial results and cash available for distributions to our stockholders. Whenever we incur variable-rate debt, increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense unless fully hedged. As of December 31, 2022, our outstanding debt aggregated $2,537,113,000, of which 65.1% was unhedged variable-rate debt. In January 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap contract to hedge $275,000,000 of our floating rate term loan under our existing credit facility. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt•.If we need to repay existing debt during periods of rising interest rates, which is currently the case, we could be required to sell one or more of our properties at times which may not permit realization of the maximum return on such investments, which could result in losses.
To the extent we borrow at fixed rates or enter into fixed interest rate swaps, we will not benefit from reduced interest expense if interest rates decrease.
We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of borrowings we have used to maintain liquidity and fund expansion and refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. To limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs while taking into account variable interest rate risk, we have borrowed, and may continue to borrow, at fixed rates or variable rates depending upon prevailing market conditions. We have and may also continue to enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. Therefore, to the extent we borrow at fixed rates or enter into fixed interest rate swaps, we will not benefit from reduced interest expense if interest rates decrease.
Hedging activity may expose us to risks.
We have used, and may continue to use, derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in exchange rates and interest rates. If we use derivative financial instruments to hedge against exchange rate or interest rate fluctuations, we will be exposed to credit risk and legal enforceability risks. In this context, credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us. Legal enforceability risks encompass general contractual risks, including the risk that the counterparty will breach the terms of, or fail to perform its obligations under, the derivative contract. These derivative instruments are speculative in nature and there is no guarantee that they will be effective. If we are unable to manage these risks effectively, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants relating to our business.
When providing financing, a lender may impose restrictions on us that affect our ability to incur additional debt, make distributions to our stockholders and operate our business. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, loan documents that contain covenants that limit our ability to further mortgage the property or discontinue insurance coverage. These or other limitations maycould adversely affect our flexibility and our ability to achieve our business objectives.
Interest-only indebtedness may increase our risk of default, adversely affect our ability to refinance or sell properties and ultimately may reduce our funds available for distribution to our stockholders.
We may finance or refinance our properties using interest-only mortgage indebtedness. During the interest-only period, the amount of each scheduled payment will be less than that of a traditional amortizing mortgage loan. The principal balance of the mortgage loan will not be reduced (except in the case of prepayments) because there are no scheduled monthly payments of principal during this period. After the interest-only period, we will be required either to make scheduled payments of amortized principal and interest or to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. At the time such a balloon payment is due, we may or may not be able to refinance the balloon payment on terms as favorable as the original loan or sell the particular property at a price sufficient to make the balloon payment. Furthermore, these required principal or balloon payments will increase the amount of our scheduled payments and may increase our risk of default under the related mortgage loan. If the mortgage loan has an adjustable interest rate, the amount of our scheduled payments would likely increase at a time of rising interest rates, depending upon the adjustment terms. In addition, payments of principal and interest made to service our debt, including balloon payments, may leave us with insufficient cash to pay the distributions to our stockholders, including those that we are required to pay to maintain our qualification as a REIT. Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on us.
If we are required to make payments under any “bad boy” carve-out guaranties that we may provide in connection with certain mortgages and related loans, we could be materially and adversely affected.
In obtaining certain nonrecourse loans, we have provided, and may continue to provide, standard carve-out guaranties. These guaranties are only applicable if and when the borrower directly, or indirectly through agreement with an affiliate, joint venture partner or other third party, voluntarily files a bankruptcy or similar liquidation or reorganization action or takes other actions that are fraudulent or improper (commonly referred to as “bad boy” guaranties). Although we believe that “bad boy” carve-out guaranties are not guaranties of payment in the event of foreclosure or other actions of the foreclosing lender that are beyond the borrower’s control, some lenders in the real estate industry have recently sought to make claims for payment under such guaranties. In the event such a claim was made against us under a “bad boy” carve-out guaranty following foreclosure on mortgages or related loans, and such claim was successful, we could be materially and adversely affected.business.
We may be adversely affected by the transition away from LIBOR and the use of SOFR or other alternative benchmark rates.
London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, and other indices which are deemed “benchmarks” are the subject of recent national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. The Financial Conduct Authority ceased publishing one-week and two-month LIBOR after December 31, 2021 and intends to cease publishing all remaining LIBOR index maturities after June 30, 2023. It currently appears that U.S. dollar LIBOR will likely be replaced by SOFR, though it is not certain whether or when SOFR or other alternative reference rates will attain market traction as replacements for LIBOR.
SOFR and SOFR-based rates have a limited history, and there is no assurance that SOFR, or rates derived from SOFR, will perform in the same or a similar way as LIBOR would have performed at any time, and there is no assurance that SOFR-based rates will ultimately prove to be a suitable substitute for LIBOR. SOFR-based reference rates cannot be predicted based on SOFR’s history, and future levels of SOFR may bear little or no relation to historical levels of SOFR, LIBOR or other rates. Additionally, SOFR has been more volatile than other benchmark or market rates, such as three-month LIBOR. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our transition to term SOFR in connection with our floating rate or future fixed-rate borrowings will not result in increased volatility in our cost of borrowing or increased interest expense compared to our historical experience. Additionally, the inability or any inefficiency in market participants’ ability to hedge SOFR-based transactions or the illiquidity or relative illiquidity in the market for SOFR-based instruments may increase the costs associated with SOFR-based debt instruments or our ability to hedge our exposure to floating interest rates. Any of these changes could have a material adverse effect on the value of financial assets and liabilities based on or linked to SOFR or another benchmark, including our own.
Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Organization
Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our common stock, or equity securities, which would dilute our existing stockholders and may be senior to our common stock, may adversely affect our stockholders.
We may in the future attempt to increase our capital resources by offering debt or equity securities, including notes and classes of preferred or common stock. Debt securities or shares of preferred stock will generally be entitled to receive interest payments or distributions, both current and in connection with any liquidation or sale, prior to the holders of our common stock. We are not required to offer any such additional debt or preferred stock to existing common stockholders on a preemptive basis. Therefore, issuances of common stock or other equity securities will generally dilute the holdings of our existing stockholders. Because we may generally issue any such debt or preferred stock in the future without obtaining the approval of our stockholders, you will bear the risk of our future issuances reducing the market price of our common stock and diluting your proportionate ownership. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the form amount, timing or nature of our future issuances.
In addition, subject to any limitations set forth under Maryland law, our board may amend our charter to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of stock, or the number of shares of any class or series of stock designated, or reclassify any unissued shares into other classes or series of stock without the necessity of obtaining stockholder approval. All such shares may be issued in the sole discretion of our board. In addition, we have granted, and expect to grant in the future, equity awards under our incentive plan to our independent directors and certain of our employees, including our executive officers, which to date have consisted of our restricted stock and restricted share units, which are exchangeable into shares of our common stock subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. Finally, we have OP units outstanding which are redeemable for cash or, at our election, exchangeable into shares of our common stock.
Therefore, existing stockholders will experience dilution of their equity investment in us as we (1) sell additional shares of our common stock in the future, (2) sell securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock, including OP units, (3) issue restricted shares of our common stock, restricted stock units or other equity-based securities under the AHR Incentive Plan or (4) issue shares of our common stock in a merger or to sellers of properties acquired by us in connection with an exchange of OP units.
Because the OP units may, at our election, be exchanged for shares of our common stock, any merger, exchange or conversion between our operating partnership and another entity ultimately could result in the issuance of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, thereby diluting the percentage ownership interest of other stockholders. Because of these and other reasons, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution in their equity investment in us.
Our ability to issue preferred stock may include a preference in distributions superior to our common stock and also may deter or prevent a sale of shares of our common stock in which our stockholders could profit.
Our charter authorizes our board to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our board has the discretion to establish the preferences and rights, includingimposes a preference in distributions superior to our common stockholders, of any issued preferred stock. If we authorize and issue preferred stock with a distribution preference over our common stock, payment of any distribution preferences of outstanding preferred stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of distributions on our common stock. Further, holders of preferred stock are normally entitled to receive a preference payment in the event we liquidate, dissolve or wind up before any payment is made to our common stockholders, likely reducing the amount our common stockholders would otherwise receive upon such an occurrence. In addition, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock or a separate class or series of common stock may render more difficult or tend to discourage:
•a merger, tender offer or proxy contest;
•assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our securities; or
•removal of incumbent management.
We may be unable to raise additional capital needed to grow our business.
We may not be able to increase our capital resources by engaging in additional debt or equity financings. Even if we complete such financings, they may not be on favorable terms. These circumstances could materially and adversely affect our financial results and impair our ability to achieve our business objectives. Additionally, we may be required to accept terms that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness or take other actions (including terms that require us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios) that would otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.
The limit on the percentage of shares of our common stock or capital stock that any person may own, and such limit may discourage a takeover or business combination that may have benefited our stockholders.
Our charter restricts the direct or indirect ownership by one person or entity to no more than 9.9% of the value of shares of our then outstanding capital stock (which includes common stock and any preferred stock we may issue) and no more than 9.9% of the value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of our then outstanding common stock. This restriction may discourage a change of control of us and may deter individuals or entities from making tender offers for shares of our stock on terms that might be financially attractive to our stockholders or which may cause a change in our management. This ownership restriction may also prohibit business combinations that would have otherwise been approved by our board and our stockholders. In addition to deterring potential transactions that may be favorable to our stockholders, these provisions may also decrease our stockholders’ ability to sell their shares of our common stock.
Our stockholders’ ability to control our operations is severely limited.
Our board determines our major strategies, including our strategies regarding investments, financing, growth, capitalization, REIT qualification and distributions. Our board may amend or revise these and other strategies without a vote of the stockholders. Under our charter and Maryland law, our stockholders have a right to vote only on the following matters:
•the election or removal of directors;
•the amendment of our charter, except that our board may amend our charter without stockholder approval to change our name or the name of other designation or the par value of any class or series of our stock and the aggregate par value of our stock, increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have the authority to issue, or effect certain reverse stock splits;
•our dissolution; and
•certain mergers, consolidations, conversions, statutory share exchanges and sales or other dispositions of all or substantially all of our assets.
All other matters are subject to the sole discretion of our board.
Conflicts of interest could arise as a result of our officers’ other positions and/or interests outside of our company.
We rely on our management for implementation of our policies and our day-to-day operations. Although a majority of their business time is spent working for our company, they may engage in other investment and business activities in which we have no economic interest. Their responsibilities to these other entities could result in action or inaction that is detrimental to our business, which could harm the implementation of our growth strategies and achievement of our business strategies. They
may face conflicts of interest in allocating time among us and their other business ventures and in meeting obligations to us and those other entities.
Maryland law prohibits certain business combinations, which may make it more difficult for us to be acquired and may limit or delay our stockholders’ ability to dispose of their shares of our common stock.
Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, or the MGCL, such as the business combination statute and the control share acquisition statute, are designed to prevent, or have the effect of preventing, someone from acquiring control of us. The MGCL prohibits “business combinations” between a Maryland corporation and:
•any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10.0% or more of the voting power of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock, which is referred to as an “interested stockholder”;
•an affiliate or associate of the corporation who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was an interested stockholder; or
•an affiliate of an interested stockholder.
These prohibitions last for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder. Thereafter, any business combination with the interested stockholder or an affiliate of the interested stockholder must be recommended by the corporation’s board and approved by the affirmative vote of at least 80.0% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation, and two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting stock of the corporation other than shares of voting stock held by the interested stockholder. These requirements could have the effect of inhibiting a change in control even if a change in control were in our stockholders’ best interests.
Pursuant to the MGCL, our bylaws exempt us from the control share acquisition statute, which eliminates voting rights for certain levels of shares that could exercise control over us, and our board has adopted a resolution providing that any business combination between us and any other person is exempted from the business combination statute, provided that such business combination is first approved by our board. However, if the bylaws provision exempting us from the control share acquisition statute or our board resolution opting out of the business combination statute were repealed in whole or in part at any time, these provisions of the MGCL could delay or prevent offers to acquire us and increase the difficulty of consummating any such offers, even if such a transaction would be in our stockholders’ best interest.
The MGCL and our organizational documents limit our stockholders’ right to bring claims against our officers and directors.
The MGCL provides that a director has no liability in such capacity if he or she performs his or her duties in good faith, in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in the corporation’s best interests and with the care that an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Our charter requires us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and advance expenses to our directors and officers and our subsidiaries’ directors and officers. Additionally, our charter limits, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, the liability of our directors and officers to us and our stockholders for monetary damages. Moreover, we have entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers and intend to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our future directors and executive officers. Although our charter does not limit the liability of our directors and officers or allow us to indemnify our directors and officers to a greater extent than permitted under Maryland law, we and our stockholders may have more limited rights against our directors and officers than might otherwise exist under common law, which could reduce our stockholders’ and our recovery against them. In addition, we may be obligated to fund the defense costs incurred by our directors and officers in some cases, which would decrease the cash otherwise available for distribution to our stockholders.
Our stockholders’ investment return may be reduced if we are required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. If we become subject to registration under the Investment Company Act, we may not be able to continue our business.
We do not intend to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. We monitor our operations and our assets on an ongoing basis in order to ensure that neither we, nor any of our subsidiaries, meet the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. If we were obligated to register as an investment company, we would have to comply with a variety of substantive requirements under the Investment Company Act imposing, among other things: limitations on capital structure; restrictions on specified investments; prohibitions on transactions with affiliates; compliance with reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy disclosure and other rules and regulations that would significantly change our operations; and potentially, compliance with daily valuation requirements.
To maintain compliance with our Investment Company Act exemption, we may be unable to sell assets we would otherwise want to sell and may need to sell assets we would otherwise wish to retain. Similarly, we may have to acquire additional income- or loss-generating assets that we might not otherwise have acquired or may have to forgo opportunities to acquire interests in companies that we would otherwise want to acquire and would be important to our investment strategy. Accordingly, our board may not be able to change our investment policies as our board may deem appropriate if such change would cause us to meet the definition of an “investment company.” In addition, a change in the value of any of our assets could negatively affect our ability to avoid being required to register as an investment company. If we were required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, but failed to do so, we would be prohibited from engaging in our business, and criminal and civil actions could be brought against us. In addition, our contracts would be unenforceable unless a court were to require enforcement, and a court could appoint a receiver to take control of us and liquidate our business, which would result in our stockholders’ losing all of their investment in us.
Our structure may result in potential conflicts of interest with limited partners in our operating partnership whose interests may not be aligned with those of our stockholders.
Our directors and officers have duties to us and our stockholders under Maryland law and our charter in connection with their management of us. At the same time, the general partner of our operating partnership, of which we are the sole owner, has fiduciary duties under Delaware law to our operating partnership and to the limited partners in connection with the management of our operating partnership. The duties of the general partner to our operating partnership and its partners may come into conflict with the duties of our directors and officers to us and our stockholders. Under Delaware law, a general partner of a Delaware limited partnership owes its limited partners the duties of good faith and fair dealing. Other duties, including fiduciary duties, may be modified or eliminated in the partnership agreement. If there is a conflict in the fiduciary duties owed by us (as the sole member of the general partner) to our stockholders on one hand and by the general partner to any limited partners on the other, we shall be entitled to resolve such conflict in favor of our stockholders.
Additionally, the partnership agreement expressly limits our liability by providing that we and our officers, directors, stockholders, trustees, representatives, agents and employees will not be liable or accountable to our operating partnership for (i) any act or omission performed or failed to be performed, or for any losses, claims, costs, damages, or liabilities arising from any such act or omission, (ii) any tax liability imposed on our operating partnership or (iii) any losses due to the misconduct, negligence (gross or ordinary), dishonesty or bad faith of any agents of our operating partnership, if we or any such person acted consistent with the obligation of good faith and fair dealing and with applicable duties of care and loyalty. In addition, our operating partnership is required to indemnify us and our officers, directors, employees and designees to the extent permitted by applicable law from and against any and all claims arising from operations of our operating partnership, unless it is established that: (i) the act or omission was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) the indemnified party received an improper personal benefit, in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the indemnified person had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The provisions of Delaware law that allow the fiduciary duties of a general partner to be modified by a partnership agreement have not been tested in a court of law, and we have not obtained an opinion of counsel covering the provisions set forth in the partnership agreement that purport to waive or restrict our fiduciary duties.
Risks RelatedReal Estate Investments
We generally seek investments that produce current income. We expect our real estate investments to Taxesinclude:
•outpatient medical buildings;
•integrated senior health campuses;
•senior housing;
•SNFs; and
•healthcare-related facilities operated utilizing a RIDEA structure.
Our REIT Statusreal estate investments may also include:
Failure•hospitals;
•long-term acute care facilities;
•surgery centers;
•memory care facilities;
•specialty medical and diagnostic service facilities;
•laboratories and research facilities;
•pharmaceutical and medical supply manufacturing facilities; and
•offices leased to maintaintenants in healthcare-related industries, including life sciences.
We generally seek to acquire real estate of the types described above that will best enable us to meet our qualificationinvestment objectives, taking into account, among other things, the diversification of our portfolio at the time, relevant real estate and financial factors, location, income-producing capacity and the prospects for long-term appreciation of a particular property. As a result, we may acquire properties other than the types described above. In addition, we may acquire properties that vary from the parameters described above for a particular property type.
Our real estate investments generally take the form of holding fee title or long-term leasehold interests. Our investments may be made either directly through our operating partnership or indirectly through investments in joint ventures, limited liability companies, general partnerships or other co-ownership arrangements with the developers of the properties or other persons. See “Joint Ventures” below for a further discussion.
We have exercised, and may continue to exercise, our purchase options to acquire properties that we currently lease. In addition, we have participated in sale-leaseback transactions, in which we purchase real estate investments and lease them back to the sellers of such properties. We seek to structure any such sale-leaseback transaction such that the lease will be characterized as a REIT“true lease” and we will be treated as the owner of the property for U.S. federal income tax purposespurposes.
Our obligation to close a transaction involving the purchase of real estate is generally conditioned upon the delivery and verification of certain documents, including, where appropriate: (i) plans and specifications; (ii) environmental reports (generally a minimum of a Phase I investigation); (iii) building condition reports; (iv) surveys; (v) evidence of marketable title subject to such liens and encumbrances; (vi) audited financial statements covering recent operations of real properties having operating histories unless such statements are not required to be filed with the SEC and delivered to stockholders; (vii) title insurance policies; and (viii) the availability of property and liability insurance policies.
In determining whether to purchase a particular real estate investment, we may obtain an option on such property, including land suitable for development. The amount paid for an option is normally surrendered if the real estate is not purchased and is normally credited against the purchase price if the real estate is purchased. We also may enter into arrangements with the seller or developer of a real estate investment whereby the seller or developer agrees that if, during a stated period, the real estate investment does not generate specified cash flows, the seller or developer will pay us cash in an amount necessary to reach the specified cash flows level, subject in some cases to negotiated dollar limitations.
We have obtained, and we intend to continue to obtain, adequate insurance coverage for all real estate investments in which we invest.
We have acquired, and we intend to continue to acquire, leased properties with long-term leases and we generally do not intend to operate any healthcare-related facilities directly. As a REIT, we are prohibited from operating healthcare-related facilities directly; however, we have leased, and may continue to lease, healthcare-related facilities that we acquire to wholly- owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, utilizing a RIDEA structure permitted by the Code. In such an event, our TRS will
engage a third party in the business of operating healthcare-related facilities to manage the property. Through our TRS, we bear operational risks and liabilities associated with the operation of such healthcare-related facilities unlike our triple-net leased properties. Such operational risks and liabilities might include, but are not limited to, resident quality of care claims and governmental reimbursement matters.
Development and Construction Activities
On an opportunistic basis, we have selectively developed, are currently developing (through Trilogy), and may continue to selectively develop, real estate assets within our integrated senior health campuses segment and other segments of our portfolio when market conditions warrant, which may be funded through capital that we, and in certain circumstances, our joint venture partners, provide. In doing so, we may be able to reduce overall purchase costs by developing property versus purchasing an existing property. We retain and will continue to retain independent contractors to perform the actual construction work on tenant improvements, as well as property development.
Terms of Leases
The terms and conditions of any lease we enter into with our tenants may vary substantially. However, we expect that a majority of our tenant leases will require the tenant to pay or reimburse us for some or all of the operating expenses of the building based on the tenant’s proportionate share of rentable space within the building. Operating expenses typically include, but are not limited to, real estate and other taxes, utilities, insurance and building repairs, and other building operation and management costs. For our multi-tenanted properties, we generally expect to be responsible for the replacement of certain capital improvements affecting a property, including structural components of a property such as the roof of a building and other capital improvements such as parking facilities. We expect that many of our tenant leases will have terms of five or more years, some of which may have renewal options.
Substantially all of our leases with residents at our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses are for a term of one year or less, which creates the opportunity for operators to adjust rents to reflect current market conditions.
Joint Ventures
We have entered into, and we may continue to enter into, joint ventures, general partnerships and other arrangements with one or more institutions or individuals, including real estate developers, operators, owners, investors and others, for the purpose of acquiring real estate. Our investment in Trilogy is an example of a joint venture into which we have entered. Such joint ventures may be leveraged with debt financing or unleveraged. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, joint ventures to further diversify our investments or to access investments which meet our investment criteria that would otherwise be unavailable to us. In determining whether to invest in a particular joint venture, we will evaluate the real estate that such joint venture owns or is being formed to own under the same criteria described elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the selection of our other properties. However, we will not participate in tenant-in-common syndications or transactions.
Joint ventures with unaffiliated third parties may be structured such that the investment made by us and the other joint venture party are on substantially different terms and conditions. This type of investment structure may result in the other joint venture party receiving more of the cash flows, including appreciation, of an investment than we would receive, or may result in certain conflict of interest. See Item 1A, Risk Factors — Risks Related to Joint Ventures, for a further discussion.
Real Estate-Related Investments
In addition to our acquisition of properties, we have invested on an infrequent and opportunistic basis, and may continue to invest, in real estate-related investments, including loans and securities investments.
Investments in Real Estate Mortgages
We have invested, and we may continue to invest, in first and second mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and bridge loans. However, we will not make or invest in any loans that are subordinate to any mortgage or equity interest of any of our directors or affiliates. We also may invest in participations in mortgage loans. Second mortgage loans are secured by second deeds of trust on real property that is already subject us to U.S. federal income taxprior mortgage indebtedness. A mezzanine loan is a loan made in respect of certain real property but is secured by a lien on the ownership interests of the entity that, directly or indirectly, owns the real property. A bridge loan is short-term financing for an individual or business, until the next stage of financing can be obtained. Mortgage participation investments are investments in partial interests of mortgages of the type described above that are made and administered by third-party mortgage lenders. We may also make seller financing loans in connection with the disposition of our REIT taxable incomeproperties. In evaluating prospective loan investments, we consider factors, including, but not limited to: (i) the ratio of the investment amount to the underlying property’s value; (ii) current and projected cash flows of the property; (iii) the degree of liquidity of the investment; (iv) the quality, experience and creditworthiness of the borrower; and (v) in the case of mezzanine loans, the ability to acquire the underlying real property.
Our criteria for making or investing in loans are substantially the same as those involved in our investment in properties. We do not intend to make loans to other persons, to underwrite securities of other issuers or to engage in the purchase and sale of any types of investments other than those relating to real estate. We generally will not make or invest in mortgage loans on any one property if the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the property, including our loan, would exceed an amount equal to 85.0% of the appraised value of the property, as determined by an appraiser, unless we find substantial justification due to other underwriting criteria; however, our policy generally will be that the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the property, including our loan, would not exceed 75.0% of the appraised value of the property. We may find such justification in connection with the purchase of loans in cases in which we believe there is a high probability of our foreclosure upon the property in order to acquire the underlying assets and in which the cost of the loan investment does not exceed the fair market value of the underlying property. We will not invest in or make loans unless an appraisal has been obtained concerning the underlying property, except for those loans insured or guaranteed by a government or government agency or in connection with seller financing loans. In the event the transaction is with any of our directors or their respective affiliates, the appraisal will be obtained from a certified independent appraiser to support its determination of fair market value. In addition, we will seek to obtain a customary lender’s title insurance policy or commitment as to the priority of the mortgage or condition of the title. Because the factors considered, including the specific weight we place on each factor, will vary for each prospective loan investment, we do not, and are not able to, assign a specific weight or level of importance to any particular factor.
We will evaluate all potential loan investments to determine if the security for the loan and the loan-to-value ratio meets our investment criteria and objectives. Most loans that we will consider for investment would provide for monthly payments of interest, and some may also provide for principal amortization, although many loans of the nature that we will consider provide for payments of interest only and a payment of principal in full at the regular corporateend of the loan term. We will not originate loans with negative amortization provisions.
We are not limited as to the amount of our assets that may be invested in mezzanine loans, bridge loans and second mortgage loans. However, we recognize that these types of loans are riskier than first deeds of trust or first priority mortgages on income-producing, fee-simple properties, and we expect to minimize the amount of these types of loans in our portfolio. We will evaluate the fact that these types of loans are riskier in determining the rate of interest on the loans. We do not have any policy that limits the amount that we may invest in any single loan or the amount we may invest in loans to any one borrower. We have not established a portfolio turnover policy with respect to loans we invest in or originate.
Investment in Other Securities
We have invested, and may continue to invest, in debt securities such as commercial mortgage-backed securities issued by other unaffiliated real estate companies. We may also invest in equity securities of public or private real estate companies. Commercial mortgage-backed securities are securities that evidence interests in, or are secured by, a single commercial mortgage loan or a pool of commercial mortgage loans. Commercial mortgage-backed securities generally are pass-through certificates that represent beneficial ownership interests in common law trusts whose assets consist of defined portfolios of one or more commercial mortgage loans. They typically are issued in multiple tranches whereby the more senior classes are entitled to priority distributions from the trust’s income. Losses and other shortfalls from expected amounts to be received in the mortgage pool are borne by the most subordinate classes, which would substantially reduce ourreceive payments only after the more senior classes have received all principal and/or interest to which they are entitled. Commercial mortgage-backed securities are subject to all of the risks of the underlying mortgage loans. We may invest in investment grade and non-investment grade commercial mortgage-backed securities.
The specific number and mix of securities in which we invest will depend upon real estate market conditions, other circumstances existing at the time we are investing in securities and the amount of any future indebtedness that we may incur. We will not invest in securities of other issuers for the purpose of exercising control, and the first or second mortgages in which we intend to invest will likely not be insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs or otherwise guaranteed or insured. Real estate-related equity securities are generally unsecured and also may be subordinated to other obligations of the issuer. Our investments in real estate-related equity securities will involve special risks relating to the particular issuer of the equity securities, including the financial condition and business outlook of the issuer.
Financing Policies
We have used, and intend to continue to use, secured and unsecured debt as a means of providing additional funds for the acquisition of properties and real estate-related investments. Our ability to makeenhance our investment returns and to increase our diversification by acquiring assets using additional funds provided through borrowing could be adversely impacted if banks and other lending institutions reduce the amount of funds available for the types of loans we seek. When interest rates are high or financing is otherwise unavailable on a timely basis, we may purchase certain assets for cash with the intention of obtaining
debt financing at a later time. We have also used, and may continue to use, derivative financial instruments such as fixed interest rate swaps and caps to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.
We seek to obtain financing on the most favorable terms available to us and refinance assets during the term of a loan only in limited circumstances, such as when a decline in interest rates makes it beneficial to prepay an existing loan, when an existing loan matures or if an attractive investment becomes available and the proceeds from the refinancing can be used to purchase such investment. The benefits of refinancing may include increased cash flows resulting from reduced debt service requirements, an increase in distributions from proceeds of the refinancing and an increase in diversification and assets owned if all or a portion of the refinancing proceeds are reinvested.
If we incur mortgage indebtedness, we will endeavor to obtain level payment financing, meaning that the amount of debt service payable would be substantially the same each year, although some mortgages are likely to provide for one large payment and we may incur floating or adjustable rate financing when our board determines it to be in our best interest.
Dispositions
We have disposed, and may continue to dispose, of assets. We will determine whether a particular property or real estate-related investment should be sold or otherwise disposed of after consideration of the relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view toward maximizing our investment objectives. We intend to hold each property or real estate-related investment we acquire for an extended period. However, circumstances might arise which could result in a shortened holding period for certain investments. A property or real estate-related investment may be sold before the end of the expected holding period if: (i) diversification benefits exist associated with disposing of the investment and rebalancing our investment portfolio; (ii) an opportunity arises to pursue a more attractive investment; (iii) the value of the investment might decline; (iv) with respect to properties, a major tenant involuntarily liquidates or is in default under its lease; (v) the investment was acquired as part of a portfolio acquisition and does not meet our general acquisition criteria; (vi) an opportunity exists to enhance overall investment returns by raising capital through sale of the investment; or (vii) the sale of the investment is in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders.
The determination of whether a particular property or real estate-related investment should be sold or otherwise disposed of will be made after consideration of the relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view toward maximizing our investment objectives.
Tax Status and Distribution Policy
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Codefor U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2016. We believe that we have been and, through the time of the REIT Merger, GAHR III was, organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. To continueOur qualification as a REIT, and maintenance of such qualification, will depend on our ability to maintainmeet, on a continuing basis, various complex requirements under the Code relating to, among other things, the sources of our gross income, the composition and values of our assets, our distribution levels and the concentration of ownership of our stock.
As a REIT, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on the REIT taxable income that we currently distribute to our stockholders. Under the Code, REITs are subject to numerous organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that they distribute annually at least 90.0% of their REIT taxable income to their stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any calendar year and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our REIT taxable income would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the regular corporate rate, and we would likely be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we fail to qualify. Accordingly, our failure to qualify as a REIT could have a material adverse effect on us. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may still be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and assets and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, we must meet various requirements set forth in the Code concerning, among other things, the ownershipa portion of our outstanding common stock, the nature of our assets, the sourcesbusiness has been, and is likely to continue to be, conducted through, and a portion of our income may be earned in, one or more TRSs that are themselves subject to regular corporate income taxation.
We cannot predict if we will generate sufficient cash flows to continue to pay cash distributions to our stockholders on an ongoing basis or at all. The amount of any cash distributions is determined by our board and depends on the amount of distributable funds, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations, any limitations imposed by the terms of indebtedness we may incur, as well as other factors. If our investments produce sufficient cash flows, we expect to continue paying distributions to stockholders. In addition, if it isour stockholders as determined that GAHR III lost,at the discretion of our board. Because our cash available for distribution in any year priormay be less than 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains, for the year, we may be required to borrow money, use proceeds from the REIT Merger, its qualification as a REIT without being entitledissuance of securities (in subsequent offerings, if any) or sell assets to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the distribution requirement. These methods of obtaining funds could affect future distributions by increasing operating costs. We did not establish any relief underlimit on the statutory provisions to preserve REIT status, we, as a “successor” to GAHR III underamount of net proceeds from the REIT rules, will not be able to qualify as a REIT to the extent we are unable to avail ourselves of any relief under the statutory provisions to preserve REIT status. The REIT qualification requirements are extremely complex, and interpretations of the U.S. federal income tax laws governing qualification as a REIT are limited. In addition, the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will be successful in operating in compliance with the REIT rules in such manner as to allow us to maintain our qualification as a REIT. At any time, new laws, interpretationsinitial offering or court decisions may change the U.S. federal tax laws relating to, or the U.S. federal income tax consequences of, qualification as a REIT. It is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause our board to determine that it
borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences.
To the extent that any distributions to our stockholders are paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, such distributions are taxable as ordinary income. To the extent that any of our distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, such amounts constitute a return of capital to our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes and thereafter will constitute capital gain. Any portion of distributions to our stockholders paid from net offering proceeds or borrowings will be treated in the same manner.
Our board shall authorize distributions, if any, on a quarterly basis. The amount of distributions we pay to our stockholders is not indetermined by our best interestboard and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our qualificationstatus as a REIT under the Code and restrictions imposed by our organizational documents and Maryland Law.
See Part II, Item 5, Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities — Distributions, for a further discussion of distributions approved by our board.
Competition
We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions and dispositions of OM buildings, SNFs, senior housing and other healthcare-related facilities. Our ability to revokesuccessfully compete is impacted by economic trends, availability of acceptable investment opportunities, our REIT election,ability to negotiate beneficial investment terms, availability and cost of capital, construction and development costs and applicable laws and regulations.
Income from our investments is dependent on the ability of our tenants and operators to compete with other healthcare operators. These operators compete on a local and regional basis for patients and residents, and the operators’ ability to successfully attract and retain patients and residents depends on key factors such as the number of properties in the local market, the quality of the affiliated health system, proximity to hospital campuses, the price and range of services available, the scope and quality of care, reputation, age and appearance of each property, demographic trends and the cost of care in each locality. Additionally, referral sources, including physicians and managed care organizations, may change their lists of hospitals or physicians to which itthey refer patients or that are permitted to participate in a payor program. As a result, we may do without stockholder approval.have to provide rent concessions, incur charges for tenant improvements or offer other inducements, or we may be unable to timely lease vacant space in our properties, all of which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations. Private, federal and state payment programs and the effect of other laws and regulations may also have a significant impact on the ability of our tenants and operators to compete successfully for patients and residents at our properties. For additional information on the risks associated with our business, please see Item 1A, Risk Factors.
Government Regulations
Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, and changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies, occur frequently. Further, our tenants and our healthcare facility operators, including our TRS entities that own and operate our properties under a RIDEA structure, are typically subject to extensive and complex federal, state and local healthcare laws and regulations relating to quality of care, government reimbursement, fraud and abuse practices and similar laws governing the operation of healthcare facilities, and we expect the healthcare industry, in general, will continue to face increased regulation and pressure in the areas of healthcare management, fraud and provision of services, among others. If we fail to maintaincomply with these various requirements, we may incur governmental fines or private damage awards. While we believe that our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, weproperties are and will be subjectin substantial compliance with all of these regulatory requirements, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether future requirements will require us to U.S. federal income tax onmake significant unanticipated capital expenditures that will adversely affect our REIT taxable income at the corporate rate and could also be subject to increased state and local taxes. In addition, we would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year of losing our REIT status unless the Internal Revenue Services, or IRS, grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Losing our REIT status would reduce our net earnings available for investment and amounts available for distribution to our stockholders because of the additional tax liability. In addition, distributions would no longer qualify for the distributions paid deduction, and we would no longer be requiredability to make distributions to our stockholders. If this occurs,We believe, based in part on third-party due diligence reports which are generally obtained at the time we mightacquire the properties, that all of our properties comply in all material respects with current regulations. However, if we were required to make significant expenditures under applicable regulations, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Privacy and Security Laws and Regulations
There are various federal and state privacy laws and regulations that provide for consumer protection of personal health information, particularly electronic security and privacy. Compliance with such laws and regulations may require us to, among other things, conduct additional risk analysis, modify our risk management plan, implement new policies and procedures and conduct additional training. We are generally dependent on our tenants and management companies to fulfill our compliance obligations, and we have in certain circumstances developed a program to periodically monitor compliance with such obligations. However, there can be no assurance we would not be required to raise debtalter one or equity capitalmore of our systems and data security
procedures to be in compliance with these laws. If we fail to adequately protect health information, we could be subject to civil or sell some investmentscriminal liability and adverse publicity, which could harm our business and impact our ability to attract new tenants and residents. We may be required to notify individuals, as well as government agencies and the media, if we experience a data breach. See Item 1C, Cybersecurity, below for a further discussion.
Healthcare Licensure and Certification
Generally, certain properties in our portfolio are subject to licensure, may require a certificate of need, or CON, or other certification through regulatory agencies in order to payoperate and participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs. Requirements pertaining to such licensure and certification relate to the quality of care provided by the operator, qualifications of the operator’s staff and continuing compliance with applicable tax.laws and regulations. In addition, CON laws and regulations may place restrictions on certain activities such as the addition of beds/units at our facilities and changes in ownership. Failure to obtain a license, CON or other certification, or revocation, suspension or restriction of such required license, CON or other certification, could adversely impact our properties’ operations and their ability to generate revenue from services provided. State CON laws are not uniform throughout the United States and are subject to change. We cannot predict the impact of state CON laws on our facilities or the operations of our tenants.
Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements for access and use by disabled persons. Additional federal, state and local laws also may require modifications to our properties or restrict our ability to renovate our properties. We cannot predict the cost of compliance with the ADA or other legislation. We may incur substantial costs to comply with the ADA or any other legislation.
Government Environmental Regulation and Private Litigation
Environmental laws and regulations hold us liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances which may be on our properties. These laws could impose liability without regard to whether we are responsible for the presence or release of the hazardous materials. Government investigations and remediation actions may have substantial costs, and the presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in personal injury or similar claims by private plaintiffs. Various laws also impose liability on a person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances, and such person often must incur the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at the disposal or treatment facility. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. As the owner of our properties, we may be deemed to have arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances.
Geographic Concentration
For a discussion of our geographic information, see Item 2, Properties — Geographic Diversification/Concentration Table, as well as Note 18, Segment Reporting, and Note 19, Concentration of Credit Risk, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Corporate Responsibility — Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
We are committed to conducting our business in a manner that benefits all of our stakeholders and ensures a lasting and positive impact from our operations. As a result, of all these factors,we measure our failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT could impairsuccess not only by our ability to expandgenerate profits but also our ability to reduce our impact on the environment, affect positive social change in our community and conduct our operations in accordance with the highest ethical standards. To achieve this, we are developing a comprehensive ESG strategy and related ESG policy, to which we intend to adhere. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has been delegated the authority to provide oversight and guidance to our board regarding ESG trends and best practices. In particular, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall, as it deems appropriate, recommend changes to our company’s ESG practices as necessary to comply with existing legal requirements or emerging trends and best practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also shall periodically receive reports from management regarding our company’s ESG strategy, initiatives and policies. This ESG policy, which we intend to update regularly as applicable, is briefly summarized below and will be posted on our website, www.AmericanHealthcareREIT.com, and will contain more detailed information once available. Information contained on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated by reference into and does not constitute a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Environmental Responsibility
Protecting the environment and pursuing strong environmental initiatives are integral to our company’s business. In 2022, we launched our ESG program and began conducting a materiality assessment to assist us in prioritizing our efforts and maximizing the efficacy of our program. We strive to consciously manage our operations in a way that minimizes our impact
on the environment and promotes sustainability. At our headquarters, we leverage the latest technology to minimize our energy use, such as efficient and automated lighting systems, moderation, and monitoring of heating and air conditioning, and recycling paper, plastics, metals, and electronics. In addition, we encourage all of our employees to adopt sustainable best practices. For example, we promote the use of electronic communication over printing whenever possible and have implemented electronic approval systems. Our corporate office in California is located in a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (known as LEED) certified building. Within our portfolio, we work with tenants and operators to implement energy efficiency wherever possible, including light-emitting diode (known as LED) retrofitting and water conservation efforts.
In addition, we follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material adverse effect on us. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Social
Our People
As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately 110 employees, including 68 in Accounting and Finance, 15 in Asset Management, eight in Investments, four in Information Technology and three in Legal.
We believe our employees are our greatest asset, and we pride ourselves on the diversity they bring to our company. Because of this, we have implemented a number of programs to foster not only their professional growth, but also their growth as global citizens. All of our employees are provided with a comprehensive benefits and wellness package, which may include high-quality medical, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401(k) matching, long-term incentive plans, educational grants, fitness programs and other benefits. We provide our employees, consultants and executive officers with competitive compensation and, where applicable, opportunities for equity ownership through our Second Amended and Restated 2015 Incentive Plan, or the AHR Incentive Plan. See Note 13, Equity — Equity Compensation Plans — AHR Incentive Plan, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
We also believe that one of the keys to our success is our ability to benefit from a wide range of opinions and experiences. We believe the best way to accomplish this is through promoting racial, gender and generational diversity across all layers of our organization. As of December 31, 2023, 72.7% of our employees were minorities and 58.2% were female. Generationally, our organization was composed of 10.0% Generation Z, 37.3% Millennials, 48.2% Generation X and 4.5% Baby Boomers. To further assist us in establishing a work environment that promotes diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, for our employees, we have completed a DEI assessment of our organization and created a DEI action plan. We provided and will continue to provide DEI education, beginning with a virtual privilege walk for all employees and leadership training for executives. Additionally, as a part of our commitment to DEI, our board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee actively seek out qualified women and individuals from underrepresented communities as director nominees.
Health and Safety
We are committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace. We continuously strive to meet or exceed compliance with all laws, regulations and accepted practices pertaining to workplace safety. All employees and contractors are required to comply with established safety policies, standards and procedures. Our focus is on promoting employee health and safety and ensuring business continuity. As part of such efforts, we have maintained a telecommuting policy, providing our people with valued flexibility.
For our healthcare-related facilities operated pursuant to a RIDEA structure, which include our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, we rely on each management company to attract and retain skilled personnel to provide services at our healthcare-related facilities.
Governance
We believe maintaining a rigorous corporate governance framework is essential to the success of our organization, and we seek to adhere to policies and procedures that ensure transparency, accountability, oversight and risk minimization across all levels of our company. This includes numerous committees of our board, comprised solely of independent directors, which oversee a wide range of matters such as investment activities, executive compensation, ESG policies and conflict of interest related matters.
We have structured our corporate governance in a manner we believe closely aligns our interests with those of our stockholders. Notable features of our corporate governance structure include the following:
•our board is not classified and each of our directors is subject to election annually. Additionally, our charter provides that we may not elect to be subject to the provision of the MGCL that would permit us to classify our board, unless we receive prior approval from stockholders;
•we have fully independent audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees;
•at least one of our directors qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable SEC regulations, and all members of the Audit Committee are financially literate in accordance with the NYSE listing rules and requirements;
•our board has opted out of the business combination statute in the MGCL (provided that such business combination is first approved by our board), and, pursuant to our bylaws, we have opted out of the control share acquisition statute in the MGCL;
•we do not have a stockholder rights plan and do not intend to adopt a stockholder rights plan in the future without (i) the approval of our stockholders or (ii) seeking ratification from our stockholders within 12 months of adoption of the plan if our board determines, in the exercise of the directors’ duties under applicable law, that it is in our best interests to adopt a rights plan without the delay of seeking prior stockholder approval; and
•our Corporate Governance Guidelines adopted by our board require our directors and officers to own certain minimum amounts of our common stock.
Investment Company Act Considerations
We conduct, and intend to continue to conduct, our operations, and the operations of our operating partnership and any other subsidiaries, so that no such entity meets the definition of an “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. We primarily engage in the business of investing in real estate assets; however, our portfolio does include, to a much lesser extent, other real estate-related investments. We have also acquired, and may continue to acquire, real estate assets through investments in joint venture entities, including joint venture entities in which we may not own a controlling interest. We anticipate that our assets generally will be held in our wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries, each formed to hold a particular asset. We monitor our operations and our assets on an ongoing basis in order to ensure that neither we, nor any of our subsidiaries, meet the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. Among other things, we monitor the proportion of our portfolio that is placed in investments in securities.
Information About Industry Segments
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, we modified how we evaluate our business and raisemake resource allocations, and therefore determined that we operate through four reportable business segments: integrated senior health campuses, outpatient medical, or OM, (which was formerly known as medical office buildings, or MOBs), triple-net leased properties and SHOP. All segment information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been recast for all periods presented to reflect four reportable business segments and the change in segment name from MOBs to OM.
Integrated Senior Health Campuses
Integrated senior health campuses are a valuable component of our portfolio because of their ability to provide a continuum of care as residents require increasing levels of care. As of December 31, 2023, we owned and/or operated 125 integrated senior health campuses. These facilities allow residents to “age-in-place” by providing independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and certain ancillary services, all within a single campus setting. Integrated senior health campuses predominantly focus on need-driven segments of senior care (i.e., assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing) and charge market rents in lieu of entry fees, as is commonly the case with continuing care retirement communities. Predominantly all of our integrated senior health campuses are operated utilizing a RIDEA structure, allowing us to participate in the upside from any improved operational performance while bearing the risk of any decline in operating performance.
Outpatient Medical
We value the stable and reliable cash flows our OM buildings provide our company, which we believe are particularly valuable during market disruptions and recessionary periods. As of December 31, 2023, we owned 88 OM buildings that we lease to third parties. These properties are similar to commercial office buildings, but typically require specialized infrastructure to accommodate physicians’ offices and examination rooms, as well as some ancillary uses, including pharmacies, hospital ancillary service space and outpatient services, such as diagnostic centers, rehabilitation clinics and outpatient-surgery operating rooms. Our OM buildings are typically multi-tenant properties leased to healthcare providers (hospitals and physician practices) under leases that generally provide for recovery of certain operating expenses and certain capital expenditures and have initial terms of five to 10 years with fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year).
Senior Housing Operating Properties
Our SHOP segment has the potential for embedded growth through the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and demand growth from an aging U.S. population. As of December 31, 2023, we owned and operated an aggregate 55 senior housing and skilled nursing facilities in our SHOP segment. Such facilities cater to different segments of the elderly population based upon their personal needs and include independent living, assisted living, memory care or skilled nursing services. Residents of assisted living facilities typically require limited medical care but need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management. Services provided by operators at these facilities are primarily paid for by the residents directly or through private insurance and are therefore less reliant on government reimbursement programs, such as Medicaid and Medicare. The facilities in our SHOP segment are operated utilizing RIDEA structures, allowing us to participate in the upside from any improved operational performance while bearing the risk of any decline in operating performance.
Triple-Net Leased Properties
Our triple-net leased properties segment includes senior housing, skilled nursing facilities and hospitals. We lease such properties to tenants under triple-net or absolute-net leases that obligate the tenants to pay all property-related expenses, including maintenance, utilities, repairs, taxes, insurance and capital expenditures.
As of December 31, 2023, we owned 15 SNFs within our triple-net leased properties segment that we lease to third parties. SNF residents are generally higher acuity and need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management and also require available 24-hour nursing care. SNFs offer restorative, rehabilitative and custodial nursing care for people who cannot live independently but do not require the more extensive and sophisticated treatment available at hospitals. Skilled nursing services provided by our tenants in SNFs are paid for either by private sources or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Each SNF is leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease, with an initial term typically ranging from 12 to 15 years, fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year) and requiring minimum lease coverage ratios. We commonly structure SNFs under a master lease with multiple facilities in order to diversify our master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk. We typically focus on SNF investments in states that require a CON in order to develop new SNFs, which we believe reduces the risk of over-supply.
As of December 31, 2023, we owned 11 senior housing facilities within our triple-net leased properties segment that we lease to third parties. Each facility is leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease structure with an initial term typically ranging from approximately 12 to 15 years, fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year) and requiring minimum lease coverage ratios. Such assets are commonly leased under a single master lease covering multiple facilities in order to diversify a master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk.
As of December 31, 2023, we have one wholly-owned hospital and one hospital in which we own an approximately 90.6% interest within our triple-net leased properties segment. Services provided by operators and tenants in our hospitals are paid for by private sources, third-party payors (e.g., insurance and health maintenance organizations) or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Our hospital properties include acute care, long-term acute care, specialty and rehabilitation services that are leased to single tenants or operators under triple-net lease structures with an initial term ranging from 21 to 29 years and fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 6% per year).
For a further discussion of our segment reporting for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, see Item 2, Properties, Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Note 18, Segment Reporting, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Investing in our common stock involves risks. Our stockholders should carefully consider the risk factors below, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included herein. If any of these risks were to occur, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our stockholders at a particular rate, or at all, could be materially and adversely affectaffected (which we refer to collectively as “materially and adversely affecting us” or having “a material adverse effect on us” and comparable phrases).
Risk Factor Summary
Below is a summary of the trading price ofprincipal factors that make an investment in our common stock speculative or risky. This summary should be read in conjunction with the full risk factors contained below.
Risks Related to Our Business and would substantiallyFinancial Results
•We are dependent on tenants for our revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
TRSs are subject to corporate-level taxes and our•dealings with TRSs may be subject to a 100% excise tax.
A REIT may own up to 100% of the stockThe financial deterioration, insolvency or bankruptcy of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries,of our major tenants, operators, borrowers or TRSs. Bothother obligors could have a material adverse effect on us.
•We have experienced net losses in the subsidiarypast and we may experience additional losses in the REIT must jointly elect to treat the subsidiary as a TRS. A corporation of which a TRS directly or indirectly owns more than 35.0% of the voting power or value of the stock will automatically be treated as a TRS. Overall, no more than 20.0% (25.0% for taxable years beginningfuture.
•Our prior to January 1, 2018) of the gross value of a REIT’s assetsperformance may consist of stock or securities of one or more TRSs. A TRS may hold assets and earn income that would not be qualifying assetsan accurate predictor of our ability to achieve our business objectives or income if held or earned directly by a REIT, including gross income from operations pursuant to management contracts. We leaseof our properties that are “qualified health care properties” to one or more TRSs which, in turn, contract with independent third-party management companies to operate those “qualified health care properties”future results.
•Our success is dependent on behalfthe performance and continued contributions of those TRSs. In addition, we may use one or more TRSs generally to hold properties for salecertain of our key personnel, and, in the ordinary course of a trade or business or to hold assets or conduct activities that we cannot conduct directly as a REIT. A TRS is subject to applicable U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax on its taxable income, as well as limitations on the deductibility of its interest expenses. In addition, the Code imposes a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between a TRS and its parent REIT thatevent they are not conducted on an arm’s-length basis.
If our “qualified health care properties” are not properly leased to a TRS or the operators of those “qualified health care properties” do not qualify as EIKs,no longer employed by us, we could fail to qualify as a REIT.be materially and adversely affected.
In general, under the REIT rules, we cannot directly operate any properties that are “qualified•All of our integrated senior health care properties” and can only indirectly participate in the operation of “qualified health care properties” on an after-tax basis by leasing those properties to independent health care facility operators or to TRSs. A “qualified health care property” is any real property (and any personal property incident to that real property) which is, or is necessary or incidental to the use of, a hospital, nursing facility, assisted living facility, congregate care facility, qualified continuing care facility or other licensed facility which extends medical or nursing or ancillary services to patients and is operated by a provider of those services that is eligible for participation in the Medicare program with respect to that facility. Furthermore, rent paid by a lessee of a “qualified health care property” that is a “related party tenant” of ours will not be qualifying income for purposes of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs. However, a TRS that leases “qualified health care properties” from us will not be treated as a “related party tenant” with respect to our “qualified health care properties” thatcampuses are managed by an EIK. If we incorrectly classifiedTrilogy Management Services, LLC, or the Trilogy Manager, and account for a propertysignificant portion of our revenues and operating income. Adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength could have a material adverse effect on us.
Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate
•Uncertain market conditions could lead our real estate investments to decrease in value or may cause us to sell our properties at a loss in the future.
•Most of our costs, such as a “qualified health care property”operating and leased itgeneral and administrative expenses, interest expense and real estate acquisition and construction costs, are subject to a TRS, any rental income therefrom would likelyinflation and may not be qualifying income for purposesrecoverable.
•Our high concentrations of properties in particular geographic areas magnify the two gross income tests applicable to REITs.effects of negative conditions affecting those geographic areas.
An EIK is an independent contractor that, at the time such contractor enters into a management•Our real estate investments may be concentrated in OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs or other agreement withhealthcare-related facilities, making us more vulnerable to negative factors affecting these classes than if our investments were diversified beyond the healthcare industry.
•Our business, tenants, residents and operators may face litigation and experience rising liability and insurance costs, which may materially and adversely affect us.
Risks Related to Real Estate-Related Investments
•Unfavorable real estate market conditions and delays in liquidating defaulted mortgage loan investments may negatively impact mortgage loans in which we have invested and may invest, which could result in losses to us.
•We expect a TRSportion of our real estate-related investments to operatebe illiquid, and we may not be able to adjust our portfolio in a “qualified health care property,”timely manner in response to changes in economic and other conditions.
Risks Related to the Healthcare Industry
•The healthcare industry is actively engagedheavily regulated, and new laws or regulations, changes to existing laws or regulations, loss of licensure or failure to obtain licensure could result in the trade or businessinability of operating “qualified health care properties” for any person not relatedour tenants to make rent payments to us or the TRS. Among other requirementsadversely affect our operators’ ability to qualify as an independent contractor, an operator must not own, directly or indirectly (or applying attribution provisions of the Code), more than 35.0% of the shares of our outstanding stock (by value), and no person or group of persons can own more than 35.0% of the shares of our outstanding stock and 35.0% of the ownership interests of the operator (taking into account only owners of more than 5.0% of our shares and, with respect to ownership interestoperate facilities held in such operators that are publicly traded, only holders of more than 5.0% of such ownership interests). The ownership attribution rules that apply for purposes of the 35.0% thresholds are complex. There can be no assurance that the amount of our shares beneficially owned by our operators and their owners will not exceed the above thresholds. If a healthcare facility operator at one of our properties that uses the RIDEA structure was determined to not be an EIK, any rental income we receive from the TRS with respect to such property would likely not be qualifying income for purposes of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs.structures.
If our leases with TRSs are•Reimbursement rates from third-party payors, including Medicare and Medicaid, that do not respectedrise as true leases for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we likely would fail to qualify as a REIT.
To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy two gross income tests, under which specified percentages of our gross income must be derived from certain sources, such as “rents from real property.” Rent paid by TRSs pursuantquickly, or at all, compared to the leaserate of our “qualified health care properties” will constitute a substantial portion of our gross income. For that rent to qualify as “rents from real property” for purposes of the REIT gross income tests, the leases must be respected as true leases for U.S. federal income tax purposes and not be treated as service contracts, joint ventures or some other type of arrangement. If our leases are not respected as true leases for U. S. federal income tax purposes, we may fail to qualify as a REIT.
We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes thatinflation, could increase our tax liability or reduce ouroperating flexibility.
In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial and administrative changes have been made in the provisions of U.S. federal and state income tax laws applicable to investments similar to an investment in shares of our common stock. Additional changes to the tax laws are likely to continue to occur, and we cannot assure our stockholders that any such changes will not adversely affect our taxationtenants’ operations and our ability to continuemake rental payments to qualify as a REITus or the taxation of a stockholder. Anyour profitability from operating facilities held in RIDEA structures.
•If seniors delay moving to senior housing facilities until they require greater care or forgo moving to senior housing facilities altogether, such changesaction could have a material adverse effect on us.
•We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs may be subject to various government reviews, audits and investigations that could materially and adversely affect us, including an investmentobligation to refund amounts previously paid to us, potential criminal charges, the imposition of fines and/or the loss of the right to participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs.
Risks Related to Joint Ventures
•Property ownership through joint ventures could limit our control of those investments or our decisions with respect to other investments, restrict our ability to operate and finance properties on our terms, and reduce their expected return.
Risks Related to Debt Financing
•We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.
•To the extent we borrow funds at floating interest rates, we will be adversely affected by rising interest rates unless fully hedged. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt.
•Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants that could adversely affect our business.
Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Organization
•Our charter imposes a limit on the percentage of shares of our common stock or on the market price thereof or the resale potential of our assets. Our stockholders are urged to consult with their tax advisor with respect to the impact of recent legislation on their investment in ourcapital stock and the status of legislative, regulatory or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in shares of our common stock.
Although REITs generally receive better tax treatment than entities taxed as regular corporations, it is possible that future legislation would result in a REIT having fewer tax advantages, and it could become more advantageous for a company that invests in real estate to elect to be treated for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes as a regular corporation. As a result, our charter provides our board with the power, under certain circumstances, to revoke or otherwise terminate our REIT election and cause us to be taxed as a regular corporation, without the vote of our stockholders. Our board has fiduciary duties to us and our stockholders and could only cause such changes in our tax treatment if it determines in good faith that such changes are in the best interests of our stockholders.
In certain circumstances, we may be subject to U.S. federal, state and foreign income taxes even if we maintain our qualification as a REIT, which would reduce our cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Even if we maintain our qualification as a REIT, we may be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, state income taxes or foreign income taxes. For example, net income from a “prohibited transaction” will be subject to a 100% tax. We may not be able to make sufficient distributions to avoid excise taxes applicable to REITs. We may also decide to retain capital gains we earn from the sale or other disposition of our property and pay income tax directly on such income. In that event, our stockholders would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, our stockholders that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have no benefit from their deemed payment of such tax liability. We may also be subject to state and local taxes or foreign taxes on our income or property, either directly or at the level of the companies through which we indirectly own our assets. Any U.S. federal, state or foreign taxes we pay will reduce our cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Dividends payable by REITs generally do not qualify for the reduced tax rates on dividend income as compared to regular corporations, which could adversely affect the value of our shares.
The maximum U.S. federal income tax rate for certain qualified dividends payable to domestic stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates generally is 20.0%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, are generally not eligible for these reduced rates for qualified dividends except to the extent the REIT dividends are attributable to “qualified dividends” received by the REIT itself. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, U.S. individuals, trusts and estates are permitted a deduction for certain pass-through business income, including “qualified REIT dividends” (generally, dividends received by a REIT stockholder that are not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income), allowing them to deduct up to 20.0% of such amounts, subject to certain limitations. Although the reduced U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to dividend income from regular corporate dividends does not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends paid by REITs, the more favorable rates applicable to qualified dividends from C corporations could cause investors who are individuals, trusts and estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay qualified dividends, which could adversely affect the market price of the shares of common stock of REITs, including our shares of common stock.
Dividends on, and gains recognized on the sale of, shares by a tax-exempt stockholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income.
If (1) we are a “pension-held REIT,” (2) a tax-exempt stockholder has incurred (or is deemed to have incurred) debt to purchase or hold our shares or (3) a holder of our shares is a certain type of tax-exempt stockholder, dividends on, and gains recognized on the sale of, shares by such tax-exempt stockholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income under the Code.
Characterization of our sale-leaseback transactions may be challenged, which could jeopardize our REIT status or require us to make an unexpected distribution.
We have participated, and may continue to participate, in sale-leaseback transactions in which we purchase real estate investments and lease them back to the sellers of such properties. We believe we have structured and intend to structure any of our sale-leaseback transactions such that the lease will be characterized as a “true lease” and so that we will be treated as the owner of the property for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, we cannot assure our stockholders that the IRS will not take the position that specific sale-leaseback transactions that we treated as leases be re-characterized as financing arrangements or loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event that any person may own, and such sale-leaseback transaction is re-characterized aslimit may discourage a financing transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, deductions for depreciation and cost recovery relating to such real estate investment would be disallowedtakeover or significantly reduced. If a sale-leaseback transaction is so re-characterized, we might fail to satisfy the REIT asset tests, income tests or distribution requirements and, consequently, lose our REIT status or be required to elect to distribute an additional distribution of the increased taxable income to avoid the loss of REIT status. This distribution would be paid to all stockholders at the time of declaration rather than the stockholders existing in the taxable year affected by the re-characterization.
Complying with the REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.
To maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, the nature and diversification of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders and the ownership of shares of our common stock. We may be required to make distributions to our stockholders at disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution, or we may be required to raise debt or equity capital or forego otherwise attractive investments in order to comply with the REIT tests. We may need to borrow funds to meet the REIT distribution requirements even if market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will have access to such capital on favorable terms at the desired times, or at all. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements could materially and adversely affect us and may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing our financial results.
If the Operating Partnership fails to maintain its status as a partnership and were to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its income may be subject to taxation, which would reduce the cash available for distribution to stockholders and likely result in a loss of our REIT status.
We intend to maintain the status of our operating partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, if the IRS were to successfully challenge the status of our operating partnership as a partnership for such purposes, it would be taxable as a corporation. In such event, this would reduce the amount of distributions that our operating partnership could make to us. This would also likely result in us losing REIT status, and, if so, becoming subject to a corporate level tax on our own income. This would substantially reduce any cash available to pay distributions. In addition, if any of the partnerships or limited liability companies through which our operating partnership owns its properties, in whole or in part, loses its characterization as a partnership and is otherwise not disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such partnership or limited liability company would be subject to taxation as a corporation, thereby reducing distributions to our operating partnership. Such a recharacterization of an underlying partnership or limited liability company could also threaten our ability to maintain our status as a REIT.
Foreign purchasers of shares of our common stock may be subject to FIRPTA tax upon the sale of their shares of our common stock or upon the payment of a capital gains dividend.
A foreign person disposing of a U.S. real property interest, including shares of stock of a U.S. corporation whose assets consist principally of U.S. real property interests, is generally subject to withholding pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980, as amended, or FIRPTA, on the amount received from the disposition. However, foreign pension plans and certain foreign publicly traded entities are exempt from FIRPTA withholding. Further, such FIRPTA tax does not apply to the disposition of stock in a REIT if the REIT is “domestically controlled.” A REIT is “domestically controlled” if less than 50.0% of the REIT’s stock, by value, has been owned directly or indirectly by persons who are not qualifying U.S. persons during a continuous five-year period ending on the date of disposition or, if shorter, during the entire period of the REIT’s existence. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will qualify as a “domestically controlled” REIT. If we were to fail to so qualify, amounts received by foreign investors on a sale of shares of our common stock would be subject to FIRPTA tax, unless the shares of our common stock are regularly traded on an established securities market and the foreign investor did not at any time during a specified period directly or indirectly own more than 10.0% of the value of our outstanding common stock.
Additionally, a foreign stockholder will likely be subject to FIRPTA upon the payment of any distribution by us that is attributable to gain from sales or exchanges of U.S. real property interests, unless the shares of our common stock are regularly traded on a U.S. established securities market and the foreign investor did not own at any time during the 1-year period ending on the date of such distribution more than 10.0% of such class of common stock.
If the REIT Merger does not qualify as a tax-free reorganization, there may be adverse tax consequences.
The REIT Merger was intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The closing of the REIT Merger was conditioned on the receipt by us and GAHR III of an opinion of counsel to the effect that the REIT Merger will qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. However, these legal opinions will not be binding on the IRS or on the courts. If, for any reason, the REIT Merger were to fail to qualify as a tax-free reorganization, then there would be adverse tax implications to us and our stockholders, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Employee Benefit Plan, IRA, and Other Tax-Exempt Investor Risks
If a stockholder that is a benefit plan or IRA fails to meet the fiduciary and other standards under ERISA or the Code as a result of an investment in shares of our common stock, such stockholder could be subject to civil and, if the failure is willful, criminal penalties.
There are special considerations that apply to benefit plans and IRAs investing in shares of our common stock. Stockholders that are benefit plans and IRAs should consider whether, among other things:
•their investment is consistent with their fiduciary obligations under ERISA and the Code;
•their investment is made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the benefit plan or IRA, including any investment policy;
•their investment satisfies the prudence and diversification requirements of ERISA;
•their investment will not impair the liquidity of the benefit plan or IRA;
•their investment will not produce UBTI for the benefit plan or IRA; and
•they will be able to value the assets of the benefit plan or IRA annually in accordance with ERISA, the Code and the applicable provisions of the benefit plan or IRA.
ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit certain transactions that involve (i) benefit plans or IRAs, and (ii) any person who is a “party-in-interest” or “disqualified person” with respect to such a benefit plan or IRA. Consequently, the fiduciary or owner of a benefit plan or an IRA contemplating an investment in our common stock should consider whether we, any other person associated with the issuance of the common stock, or any of our or their affiliates is or might become a “party-in-interest” or “disqualified person” with respect to the benefit plan or IRA and, if so, whether an exemption from such prohibited transaction rules is applicable. In addition, the U.S. Department of Labor plan asset regulations provide that, subject to certain exceptions, the assets of an entity in which a plan holds an equity interest may be treated as assets of the investing plan, in which event investment made by and certain other transactions entered into by such entity would be subject to the prohibited transaction rules. To avoid our assets from being considered “plan assets,” our charter prohibits “benefit plan investors” from owning 25% or more of the shares of our common stock prior to the time that the common stock qualifies as a class of publicly-offered securities, within the meaning of the plan assets regulation. However, we cannot assure our stockholders that those provisions in our charter will be effective in limiting benefit plan investors’ ownership to less than the 25% limit. Due to the complexity of these rules and the potential penaltiesbusiness combination that may be imposed, it is important that stockholders that are benefit plans and IRAs consult with their own advisors regarding the potential applicability of ERISA, the Code and any similar applicable law.
Stockholders that are benefit plans and IRAs may be limited in their ability to withdraw required minimum distributions as a result of an investment in shares ofhave benefited our common stock.
If benefit plans or IRAs invest in our common stock, the Code may require such plan or IRA to withdraw required minimum distributions in the future. Our stock will be highly illiquid, and our share repurchase plan only offers limited liquidity. If a benefit plan or IRA requires liquidity, it may generally sell its shares, but such sale may be at a price less than the price at which such plan or IRA initially purchased its shares of our common stock. If a benefit plan or IRA fails to make required minimum distributions, it may be subject to certain taxes and tax penalties.
Specific rules apply to foreign, governmental and church plans.
As a general rule, certain employee benefit plans, including foreign pension plans, governmental plans established or maintained in the United States (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA), and certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA), are not subject to ERISA’s requirements and are not “benefit plan investors” within the meaning of the plan assets regulation. Any such plan that is qualified and exempt from taxation under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code may nonetheless be subject to the prohibited transaction rules set forth in Section 503 of the Code and, under certain circumstances in the case of church plans, Section 4975 of the Code. Also, some foreign plans and governmental plans may be subject to foreign, state, or local laws which are, to a material extent, similar to the provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Each fiduciary of a plan subject to any such similar law should make its own determination as to the need for, and the availability of, any exemption relief.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.
Not applicable.
Item 2. Properties.
As of December 31, 2022, our principal executive offices are located at 18191 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 300, Irvine, California 92612. As of December 31, 2022, we also leased office and building space in Arizona. We believe our existing leased facilities are in good condition and suitable for the conduct of our business.
Real Estate Investments
We generally seek investments that produce current income. We expect our real estate investments to include:
•outpatient medical buildings;
•integrated senior health campuses;
•senior housing;
•SNFs; and
•healthcare-related facilities operated utilizing a RIDEA structure.
Our real estate investments may also include:
•hospitals;
•long-term acute care facilities;
•surgery centers;
•memory care facilities;
•specialty medical and diagnostic service facilities;
•laboratories and research facilities;
•pharmaceutical and medical supply manufacturing facilities; and
•offices leased to tenants in healthcare-related industries, including life sciences.
We generally seek to acquire real estate of the types described above that will best enable us to meet our investment objectives, taking into account, among other things, the diversification of our portfolio at the time, relevant real estate and financial factors, location, income-producing capacity and the prospects for long-term appreciation of a particular property. As a result, we may acquire properties other than the types described above. In addition, we may acquire properties that vary from the parameters described above for a particular property type.
Our real estate investments generally take the form of holding fee title or long-term leasehold interests. Our investments may be made either directly through our operating partnership or indirectly through investments in joint ventures, limited liability companies, general partnerships or other co-ownership arrangements with the developers of the properties or other persons. See “Joint Ventures” below for a further discussion.
We have exercised, and may continue to exercise, our purchase options to acquire properties that we currently lease. In addition, we have participated in sale-leaseback transactions, in which we purchase real estate investments and lease them back to the sellers of such properties. We seek to structure any such sale-leaseback transaction such that the lease will be characterized as a “true lease” and we will be treated as the owner of the property for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Our obligation to close a transaction involving the purchase of real estate is generally conditioned upon the delivery and verification of certain documents, including, where appropriate: (i) plans and specifications; (ii) environmental reports (generally a minimum of a Phase I investigation); (iii) building condition reports; (iv) surveys; (v) evidence of marketable title subject to such liens and encumbrances; (vi) audited financial statements covering recent operations of real properties having operating histories unless such statements are not required to be filed with the SEC and delivered to stockholders; (vii) title insurance policies; and (viii) the availability of property and liability insurance policies.
In determining whether to purchase a particular real estate investment, we may obtain an option on such property, including land suitable for development. The amount paid for an option is normally surrendered if the real estate is not purchased and is normally credited against the purchase price if the real estate is purchased. We also may enter into arrangements with the seller or developer of a real estate investment whereby the seller or developer agrees that if, during a stated period, the real estate investment does not generate specified cash flows, the seller or developer will pay us cash in an amount necessary to reach the specified cash flows level, subject in some cases to negotiated dollar limitations.
We have obtained, and we intend to continue to obtain, adequate insurance coverage for all real estate investments in which we invest.
We have acquired, and we intend to continue to acquire, leased properties with long-term leases and we generally do not intend to operate any healthcare-related facilities directly. As a REIT, we are prohibited from operating healthcare-related facilities directly; however, we have leased, and may continue to lease, healthcare-related facilities that we acquire to wholly- owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, utilizing a RIDEA structure permitted by the Code. In such an event, our TRS will
engage a third party in the business of operating healthcare-related facilities to manage the property. Through our TRS, we bear operational risks and liabilities associated with the operation of such healthcare-related facilities unlike our triple-net leased properties. Such operational risks and liabilities might include, but are not limited to, resident quality of care claims and governmental reimbursement matters.
Development and Construction Activities
On an opportunistic basis, we have selectively developed, are currently developing (through Trilogy), and may continue to selectively develop, real estate assets within our integrated senior health campuses segment and other segments of our portfolio when market conditions warrant, which may be funded through capital that we, and in certain circumstances, our joint venture partners, provide. In doing so, we may be able to reduce overall purchase costs by developing property versus purchasing an existing property. We retain and will continue to retain independent contractors to perform the actual construction work on tenant improvements, as well as property development.
Terms of Leases
The terms and conditions of any lease we enter into with our tenants may vary substantially. However, we expect that a majority of our tenant leases will require the tenant to pay or reimburse us for some or all of the operating expenses of the building based on the tenant’s proportionate share of rentable space within the building. Operating expenses typically include, but are not limited to, real estate and other taxes, utilities, insurance and building repairs, and other building operation and management costs. For our multi-tenanted properties, we generally expect to be responsible for the replacement of certain capital improvements affecting a property, including structural components of a property such as the roof of a building and other capital improvements such as parking facilities. We expect that many of our tenant leases will have terms of five or more years, some of which may have renewal options.
Substantially all of our leases with residents at our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses are for a term of one year or less, which creates the opportunity for operators to adjust rents to reflect current market conditions.
Joint Ventures
We have entered into, and we may continue to enter into, joint ventures, general partnerships and other arrangements with one or more institutions or individuals, including real estate developers, operators, owners, investors and others, for the purpose of acquiring real estate. Our investment in Trilogy is an example of a joint venture into which we have entered. Such joint ventures may be leveraged with debt financing or unleveraged. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, joint ventures to further diversify our investments or to access investments which meet our investment criteria that would otherwise be unavailable to us. In determining whether to invest in a particular joint venture, we will evaluate the real estate that such joint venture owns or is being formed to own under the same criteria described elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the selection of our other properties. However, we will not participate in tenant-in-common syndications or transactions.
Joint ventures with unaffiliated third parties may be structured such that the investment made by us and the other joint venture party are on substantially different terms and conditions. This type of investment structure may result in the other joint venture party receiving more of the cash flows, including appreciation, of an investment than we would receive, or may result in certain conflict of interest. See Item 1A, Risk Factors — Risks Related to Joint Ventures, for a further discussion.
Real Estate-Related Investments
In addition to our acquisition of properties, we have invested on an infrequent and opportunistic basis, and may continue to invest, in real estate-related investments, including loans and securities investments.
Investments in Real Estate Mortgages
We have invested, and we may continue to invest, in first and second mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and bridge loans. However, we will not make or invest in any loans that are subordinate to any mortgage or equity interest of any of our directors or affiliates. We also may invest in participations in mortgage loans. Second mortgage loans are secured by second deeds of trust on real property that is already subject to prior mortgage indebtedness. A mezzanine loan is a loan made in respect of certain real property but is secured by a lien on the ownership interests of the entity that, directly or indirectly, owns the real property. A bridge loan is short-term financing for an individual or business, until the next stage of financing can be obtained. Mortgage participation investments are investments in partial interests of mortgages of the type described above that are made and administered by third-party mortgage lenders. We may also make seller financing loans in connection with the disposition of our properties. In evaluating prospective loan investments, we consider factors, including, but not limited to: (i) the ratio of the investment amount to the underlying property’s value; (ii) current and projected cash flows of the property; (iii) the degree of liquidity of the investment; (iv) the quality, experience and creditworthiness of the borrower; and (v) in the case of mezzanine loans, the ability to acquire the underlying real property.
Our criteria for making or investing in loans are substantially the same as those involved in our investment in properties. We do not intend to make loans to other persons, to underwrite securities of other issuers or to engage in the purchase and sale of any types of investments other than those relating to real estate. We generally will not make or invest in mortgage loans on any one property if the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the property, including our loan, would exceed an amount equal to 85.0% of the appraised value of the property, as determined by an appraiser, unless we find substantial justification due to other underwriting criteria; however, our policy generally will be that the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the property, including our loan, would not exceed 75.0% of the appraised value of the property. We may find such justification in connection with the purchase of loans in cases in which we believe there is a high probability of our foreclosure upon the property in order to acquire the underlying assets and in which the cost of the loan investment does not exceed the fair market value of the underlying property. We will not invest in or make loans unless an appraisal has been obtained concerning the underlying property, except for those loans insured or guaranteed by a government or government agency or in connection with seller financing loans. In the event the transaction is with any of our directors or their respective affiliates, the appraisal will be obtained from a certified independent appraiser to support its determination of fair market value. In addition, we will seek to obtain a customary lender’s title insurance policy or commitment as to the priority of the mortgage or condition of the title. Because the factors considered, including the specific weight we place on each factor, will vary for each prospective loan investment, we do not, and are not able to, assign a specific weight or level of importance to any particular factor.
We will evaluate all potential loan investments to determine if the security for the loan and the loan-to-value ratio meets our investment criteria and objectives. Most loans that we will consider for investment would provide for monthly payments of interest, and some may also provide for principal amortization, although many loans of the nature that we will consider provide for payments of interest only and a payment of principal in full at the end of the loan term. We will not originate loans with negative amortization provisions.
We are not limited as to the amount of our assets that may be invested in mezzanine loans, bridge loans and second mortgage loans. However, we recognize that these types of loans are riskier than first deeds of trust or first priority mortgages on income-producing, fee-simple properties, and we expect to minimize the amount of these types of loans in our portfolio. We will evaluate the fact that these types of loans are riskier in determining the rate of interest on the loans. We do not have any policy that limits the amount that we may invest in any single loan or the amount we may invest in loans to any one borrower. We have not established a portfolio turnover policy with respect to loans we invest in or originate.
Investment in Other Securities
We have invested, and may continue to invest, in debt securities such as commercial mortgage-backed securities issued by other unaffiliated real estate companies. We may also invest in equity securities of public or private real estate companies. Commercial mortgage-backed securities are securities that evidence interests in, or are secured by, a single commercial mortgage loan or a pool of commercial mortgage loans. Commercial mortgage-backed securities generally are pass-through certificates that represent beneficial ownership interests in common law trusts whose assets consist of defined portfolios of one or more commercial mortgage loans. They typically are issued in multiple tranches whereby the more senior classes are entitled to priority distributions from the trust’s income. Losses and other shortfalls from expected amounts to be received in the mortgage pool are borne by the most subordinate classes, which receive payments only after the more senior classes have received all principal and/or interest to which they are entitled. Commercial mortgage-backed securities are subject to all of the risks of the underlying mortgage loans. We may invest in investment grade and non-investment grade commercial mortgage-backed securities.
The specific number and mix of securities in which we invest will depend upon real estate market conditions, other circumstances existing at the time we are investing in securities and the amount of any future indebtedness that we may incur. We will not invest in securities of other issuers for the purpose of exercising control, and the first or second mortgages in which we intend to invest will likely not be insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs or otherwise guaranteed or insured. Real estate-related equity securities are generally unsecured and also may be subordinated to other obligations of the issuer. Our investments in real estate-related equity securities will involve special risks relating to the particular issuer of the equity securities, including the financial condition and business outlook of the issuer.
Financing Policies
We have used, and intend to continue to use, secured and unsecured debt as a means of providing additional funds for the acquisition of properties and real estate-related investments. Our ability to enhance our investment returns and to increase our diversification by acquiring assets using additional funds provided through borrowing could be adversely impacted if banks and other lending institutions reduce the amount of funds available for the types of loans we seek. When interest rates are high or financing is otherwise unavailable on a timely basis, we may purchase certain assets for cash with the intention of obtaining
debt financing at a later time. We have also used, and may continue to use, derivative financial instruments such as fixed interest rate swaps and caps to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.
We seek to obtain financing on the most favorable terms available to us and refinance assets during the term of a loan only in limited circumstances, such as when a decline in interest rates makes it beneficial to prepay an existing loan, when an existing loan matures or if an attractive investment becomes available and the proceeds from the refinancing can be used to purchase such investment. The benefits of refinancing may include increased cash flows resulting from reduced debt service requirements, an increase in distributions from proceeds of the refinancing and an increase in diversification and assets owned if all or a portion of the refinancing proceeds are reinvested.
If we incur mortgage indebtedness, we will endeavor to obtain level payment financing, meaning that the amount of debt service payable would be substantially the same each year, although some mortgages are likely to provide for one large payment and we may incur floating or adjustable rate financing when our board determines it to be in our best interest.
Dispositions
We have disposed, and may continue to dispose, of assets. We will determine whether a particular property or real estate-related investment should be sold or otherwise disposed of after consideration of the relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view toward maximizing our investment objectives. We intend to hold each property or real estate-related investment we acquire for an extended period. However, circumstances might arise which could result in a shortened holding period for certain investments. A property or real estate-related investment may be sold before the end of the expected holding period if: (i) diversification benefits exist associated with disposing of the investment and rebalancing our investment portfolio; (ii) an opportunity arises to pursue a more attractive investment; (iii) the value of the investment might decline; (iv) with respect to properties, a major tenant involuntarily liquidates or is in default under its lease; (v) the investment was acquired as part of a portfolio acquisition and does not meet our general acquisition criteria; (vi) an opportunity exists to enhance overall investment returns by raising capital through sale of the investment; or (vii) the sale of the investment is in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders.
The determination of whether a particular property or real estate-related investment should be sold or otherwise disposed of will be made after consideration of the relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view toward maximizing our investment objectives.
Tax Status and Distribution Policy
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2016. We believe that we have been organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. Our qualification as a REIT, and maintenance of such qualification, will depend on our ability to meet, on a continuing basis, various complex requirements under the Code relating to, among other things, the sources of our gross income, the composition and values of our assets, our distribution levels and the concentration of ownership of our stock.
As a REIT, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on the REIT taxable income that we currently distribute to our stockholders. Under the Code, REITs are subject to numerous organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that they distribute annually at least 90.0% of their REIT taxable income to their stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any calendar year and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our REIT taxable income would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the regular corporate rate, and we would likely be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we fail to qualify. Accordingly, our failure to qualify as a REIT could have a material adverse effect on us. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may still be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and assets and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, a portion of our business has been, and is likely to continue to be, conducted through, and a portion of our income may be earned in, one or more TRSs that are themselves subject to regular corporate income taxation.
We cannot predict if we will generate sufficient cash flows to continue to pay cash distributions to our stockholders on an ongoing basis or at all. The amount of any cash distributions is determined by our board and depends on the amount of distributable funds, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations, any limitations imposed by the terms of indebtedness we may incur, as well as other factors. If our investments produce sufficient cash flows, we expect to continue paying distributions to our stockholders as determined at the discretion of our board. Because our cash available for distribution in any year may be less than 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains, for the year, we may be required to borrow money, use proceeds from the issuance of securities (in subsequent offerings, if any) or sell assets to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the distribution requirement. These methods of obtaining funds could affect future distributions by increasing operating costs. We did not establish any limit on the amount of net proceeds from the initial offering or
borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences.
To the extent that any distributions to our stockholders are paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, such distributions are taxable as ordinary income. To the extent that any of our distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, such amounts constitute a return of capital to our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes and thereafter will constitute capital gain. Any portion of distributions to our stockholders paid from net offering proceeds or borrowings will be treated in the same manner.
Our board shall authorize distributions, if any, on a quarterly basis. The amount of distributions we pay to our stockholders is determined by our board and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code and restrictions imposed by our organizational documents and Maryland Law.
See Part II, Item 5, Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities — Distributions, for a further discussion of distributions approved by our board.
Competition
We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions and dispositions of OM buildings, SNFs, senior housing and other healthcare-related facilities. Our ability to successfully compete is impacted by economic trends, availability of acceptable investment opportunities, our ability to negotiate beneficial investment terms, availability and cost of capital, construction and development costs and applicable laws and regulations.
Income from our investments is dependent on the ability of our tenants and operators to compete with other healthcare operators. These operators compete on a local and regional basis for patients and residents, and the operators’ ability to successfully attract and retain patients and residents depends on key factors such as the number of properties in the local market, the quality of the affiliated health system, proximity to hospital campuses, the price and range of services available, the scope and quality of care, reputation, age and appearance of each property, demographic trends and the cost of care in each locality. Additionally, referral sources, including physicians and managed care organizations, may change their lists of hospitals or physicians to which they refer patients or that are permitted to participate in a payor program. As a result, we may have to provide rent concessions, incur charges for tenant improvements or offer other inducements, or we may be unable to timely lease vacant space in our properties, all of which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations. Private, federal and state payment programs and the effect of other laws and regulations may also have a significant impact on the ability of our tenants and operators to compete successfully for patients and residents at our properties. For additional information on the risks associated with our business, please see Item 1A, Risk Factors.
Government Regulations
Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, and changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies, occur frequently. Further, our tenants and our healthcare facility operators, including our TRS entities that own and operate our properties under a RIDEA structure, are typically subject to extensive and complex federal, state and local healthcare laws and regulations relating to quality of care, government reimbursement, fraud and abuse practices and similar laws governing the operation of healthcare facilities, and we expect the healthcare industry, in general, will continue to face increased regulation and pressure in the areas of healthcare management, fraud and provision of services, among others. If we fail to comply with these various requirements, we may incur governmental fines or private damage awards. While we believe that our properties are and will be in substantial compliance with all of these regulatory requirements, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether future requirements will require us to make significant unanticipated capital expenditures that will adversely affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. We believe, based in part on third-party due diligence reports which are generally obtained at the time we acquire the properties, that all of our properties comply in all material respects with current regulations. However, if we were required to make significant expenditures under applicable regulations, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Privacy and Security Laws and Regulations
There are various federal and state privacy laws and regulations that provide for consumer protection of personal health information, particularly electronic security and privacy. Compliance with such laws and regulations may require us to, among other things, conduct additional risk analysis, modify our risk management plan, implement new policies and procedures and conduct additional training. We are generally dependent on our tenants and management companies to fulfill our compliance obligations, and we have in certain circumstances developed a program to periodically monitor compliance with such obligations. However, there can be no assurance we would not be required to alter one or more of our systems and data security
procedures to be in compliance with these laws. If we fail to adequately protect health information, we could be subject to civil or criminal liability and adverse publicity, which could harm our business and impact our ability to attract new tenants and residents. We may be required to notify individuals, as well as government agencies and the media, if we experience a data breach. See Item 1C, Cybersecurity, below for a further discussion.
Healthcare Licensure and Certification
Generally, certain properties in our portfolio are subject to licensure, may require a certificate of need, or CON, or other certification through regulatory agencies in order to operate and participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs. Requirements pertaining to such licensure and certification relate to the quality of care provided by the operator, qualifications of the operator’s staff and continuing compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, CON laws and regulations may place restrictions on certain activities such as the addition of beds/units at our facilities and changes in ownership. Failure to obtain a license, CON or other certification, or revocation, suspension or restriction of such required license, CON or other certification, could adversely impact our properties’ operations and their ability to generate revenue from services provided. State CON laws are not uniform throughout the United States and are subject to change. We cannot predict the impact of state CON laws on our facilities or the operations of our tenants.
Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements for access and use by disabled persons. Additional federal, state and local laws also may require modifications to our properties or restrict our ability to renovate our properties. We cannot predict the cost of compliance with the ADA or other legislation. We may incur substantial costs to comply with the ADA or any other legislation.
Government Environmental Regulation and Private Litigation
Environmental laws and regulations hold us liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances which may be on our properties. These laws could impose liability without regard to whether we are responsible for the presence or release of the hazardous materials. Government investigations and remediation actions may have substantial costs, and the presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in personal injury or similar claims by private plaintiffs. Various laws also impose liability on a person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances, and such person often must incur the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at the disposal or treatment facility. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. As the owner of our properties, we may be deemed to have arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances.
Geographic Concentration
For a discussion of our geographic information, see Item 2, Properties — Geographic Diversification/Concentration Table, as well as Note 18, Segment Reporting, and Note 19, Concentration of Credit Risk, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Corporate Responsibility — Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
We are committed to conducting our business in a manner that benefits all of our stakeholders and ensures a lasting and positive impact from our operations. As a result, we measure our success not only by our ability to generate profits but also our ability to reduce our impact on the environment, affect positive social change in our community and conduct our operations in accordance with the highest ethical standards. To achieve this, we are developing a comprehensive ESG strategy and related ESG policy, to which we intend to adhere. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has been delegated the authority to provide oversight and guidance to our board regarding ESG trends and best practices. In particular, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall, as it deems appropriate, recommend changes to our company’s ESG practices as necessary to comply with existing legal requirements or emerging trends and best practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also shall periodically receive reports from management regarding our company’s ESG strategy, initiatives and policies. This ESG policy, which we intend to update regularly as applicable, is briefly summarized below and will be posted on our website, www.AmericanHealthcareREIT.com, and will contain more detailed information once available. Information contained on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated by reference into and does not constitute a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Environmental Responsibility
Protecting the environment and pursuing strong environmental initiatives are integral to our company’s business. In 2022, we launched our ESG program and began conducting a materiality assessment to assist us in prioritizing our efforts and maximizing the efficacy of our program. We strive to consciously manage our operations in a way that minimizes our impact
on the environment and promotes sustainability. At our headquarters, we leverage the latest technology to minimize our energy use, such as efficient and automated lighting systems, moderation, and monitoring of heating and air conditioning, and recycling paper, plastics, metals, and electronics. In addition, we encourage all of our employees to adopt sustainable best practices. For example, we promote the use of electronic communication over printing whenever possible and have implemented electronic approval systems. Our corporate office in California is located in a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (known as LEED) certified building. Within our portfolio, we work with tenants and operators to implement energy efficiency wherever possible, including light-emitting diode (known as LED) retrofitting and water conservation efforts.
In addition, we follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material adverse effect on us. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Social
Our People
As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately 110 employees, including 68 in Accounting and Finance, 15 in Asset Management, eight in Investments, four in Information Technology and three in Legal.
We believe our employees are our greatest asset, and we pride ourselves on the diversity they bring to our company. Because of this, we have implemented a number of programs to foster not only their professional growth, but also their growth as global citizens. All of our employees are provided with a comprehensive benefits and wellness package, which may include high-quality medical, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401(k) matching, long-term incentive plans, educational grants, fitness programs and other benefits. We provide our employees, consultants and executive officers with competitive compensation and, where applicable, opportunities for equity ownership through our Second Amended and Restated 2015 Incentive Plan, or the AHR Incentive Plan. See Note 13, Equity — Equity Compensation Plans — AHR Incentive Plan, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
We also believe that one of the keys to our success is our ability to benefit from a wide range of opinions and experiences. We believe the best way to accomplish this is through promoting racial, gender and generational diversity across all layers of our organization. As of December 31, 2023, 72.7% of our employees were minorities and 58.2% were female. Generationally, our organization was composed of 10.0% Generation Z, 37.3% Millennials, 48.2% Generation X and 4.5% Baby Boomers. To further assist us in establishing a work environment that promotes diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, for our employees, we have completed a DEI assessment of our organization and created a DEI action plan. We provided and will continue to provide DEI education, beginning with a virtual privilege walk for all employees and leadership training for executives. Additionally, as a part of our commitment to DEI, our board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee actively seek out qualified women and individuals from underrepresented communities as director nominees.
Health and Safety
We are committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace. We continuously strive to meet or exceed compliance with all laws, regulations and accepted practices pertaining to workplace safety. All employees and contractors are required to comply with established safety policies, standards and procedures. Our focus is on promoting employee health and safety and ensuring business continuity. As part of such efforts, we have maintained a telecommuting policy, providing our people with valued flexibility.
For our healthcare-related facilities operated pursuant to a RIDEA structure, which include our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, we rely on each management company to attract and retain skilled personnel to provide services at our healthcare-related facilities.
Governance
We believe maintaining a rigorous corporate governance framework is essential to the success of our organization, and we seek to adhere to policies and procedures that ensure transparency, accountability, oversight and risk minimization across all levels of our company. This includes numerous committees of our board, comprised solely of independent directors, which oversee a wide range of matters such as investment activities, executive compensation, ESG policies and conflict of interest related matters.
We have structured our corporate governance in a manner we believe closely aligns our interests with those of our stockholders. Notable features of our corporate governance structure include the following:
•our board is not classified and each of our directors is subject to election annually. Additionally, our charter provides that we may not elect to be subject to the provision of the MGCL that would permit us to classify our board, unless we receive prior approval from stockholders;
•we have fully independent audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees;
•at least one of our directors qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable SEC regulations, and all members of the Audit Committee are financially literate in accordance with the NYSE listing rules and requirements;
•our board has opted out of the business combination statute in the MGCL (provided that such business combination is first approved by our board), and, pursuant to our bylaws, we have opted out of the control share acquisition statute in the MGCL;
•we do not have a stockholder rights plan and do not intend to adopt a stockholder rights plan in the future without (i) the approval of our stockholders or (ii) seeking ratification from our stockholders within 12 months of adoption of the plan if our board determines, in the exercise of the directors’ duties under applicable law, that it is in our best interests to adopt a rights plan without the delay of seeking prior stockholder approval; and
•our Corporate Governance Guidelines adopted by our board require our directors and officers to own certain minimum amounts of our common stock.
Investment Company Act Considerations
We conduct, and intend to continue to conduct, our operations, and the operations of our operating partnership and any other subsidiaries, so that no such entity meets the definition of an “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. We primarily engage in the business of investing in real estate assets; however, our portfolio does include, to a much lesser extent, other real estate-related investments. We have also acquired, and may continue to acquire, real estate assets through investments in joint venture entities, including joint venture entities in which we may not own a controlling interest. We anticipate that our assets generally will be held in our wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries, each formed to hold a particular asset. We monitor our operations and our assets on an ongoing basis in order to ensure that neither we, nor any of our subsidiaries, meet the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. Among other things, we monitor the proportion of our portfolio that is placed in investments in securities.
Information About Industry Segments
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, we modified how we evaluate our business and make resource allocations, and therefore determined that we operate through four reportable business segments: integrated senior health campuses, outpatient medical, or OM, (which was formerly known as medical office buildings, or MOBs), triple-net leased properties and SHOP. All segment information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been recast for all periods presented to reflect four reportable business segments and the change in segment name from MOBs to OM.
Integrated Senior Health Campuses
Integrated senior health campuses are a valuable component of our portfolio because of their ability to provide a continuum of care as residents require increasing levels of care. As of December 31, 2023, we owned and/or operated 125 integrated senior health campuses. These facilities allow residents to “age-in-place” by providing independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and certain ancillary services, all within a single campus setting. Integrated senior health campuses predominantly focus on need-driven segments of senior care (i.e., assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing) and charge market rents in lieu of entry fees, as is commonly the case with continuing care retirement communities. Predominantly all of our integrated senior health campuses are operated utilizing a RIDEA structure, allowing us to participate in the upside from any improved operational performance while bearing the risk of any decline in operating performance.
Outpatient Medical
We value the stable and reliable cash flows our OM buildings provide our company, which we believe are particularly valuable during market disruptions and recessionary periods. As of December 31, 2023, we owned 88 OM buildings that we lease to third parties. These properties are similar to commercial office buildings, but typically require specialized infrastructure to accommodate physicians’ offices and examination rooms, as well as some ancillary uses, including pharmacies, hospital ancillary service space and outpatient services, such as diagnostic centers, rehabilitation clinics and outpatient-surgery operating rooms. Our OM buildings are typically multi-tenant properties leased to healthcare providers (hospitals and physician practices) under leases that generally provide for recovery of certain operating expenses and certain capital expenditures and have initial terms of five to 10 years with fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year).
Senior Housing Operating Properties
Our SHOP segment has the potential for embedded growth through the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and demand growth from an aging U.S. population. As of December 31, 2023, we owned and operated an aggregate 55 senior housing and skilled nursing facilities in our SHOP segment. Such facilities cater to different segments of the elderly population based upon their personal needs and include independent living, assisted living, memory care or skilled nursing services. Residents of assisted living facilities typically require limited medical care but need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management. Services provided by operators at these facilities are primarily paid for by the residents directly or through private insurance and are therefore less reliant on government reimbursement programs, such as Medicaid and Medicare. The facilities in our SHOP segment are operated utilizing RIDEA structures, allowing us to participate in the upside from any improved operational performance while bearing the risk of any decline in operating performance.
Triple-Net Leased Properties
Our triple-net leased properties segment includes senior housing, skilled nursing facilities and hospitals. We lease such properties to tenants under triple-net or absolute-net leases that obligate the tenants to pay all property-related expenses, including maintenance, utilities, repairs, taxes, insurance and capital expenditures.
As of December 31, 2023, we owned 15 SNFs within our triple-net leased properties segment that we lease to third parties. SNF residents are generally higher acuity and need assistance with eating, bathing, dressing and/or medication management and also require available 24-hour nursing care. SNFs offer restorative, rehabilitative and custodial nursing care for people who cannot live independently but do not require the more extensive and sophisticated treatment available at hospitals. Skilled nursing services provided by our tenants in SNFs are paid for either by private sources or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Each SNF is leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease, with an initial term typically ranging from 12 to 15 years, fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year) and requiring minimum lease coverage ratios. We commonly structure SNFs under a master lease with multiple facilities in order to diversify our master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk. We typically focus on SNF investments in states that require a CON in order to develop new SNFs, which we believe reduces the risk of over-supply.
As of December 31, 2023, we owned 11 senior housing facilities within our triple-net leased properties segment that we lease to third parties. Each facility is leased to a single tenant under a triple-net lease structure with an initial term typically ranging from approximately 12 to 15 years, fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 3% per year) and requiring minimum lease coverage ratios. Such assets are commonly leased under a single master lease covering multiple facilities in order to diversify a master tenant’s sources of rent and mitigate risk.
As of December 31, 2023, we have one wholly-owned hospital and one hospital in which we own an approximately 90.6% interest within our triple-net leased properties segment. Services provided by operators and tenants in our hospitals are paid for by private sources, third-party payors (e.g., insurance and health maintenance organizations) or through the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Our hospital properties include acute care, long-term acute care, specialty and rehabilitation services that are leased to single tenants or operators under triple-net lease structures with an initial term ranging from 21 to 29 years and fixed annual rent escalations (historically ranging from 2% to 6% per year).
For a further discussion of our segment reporting for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, see Item 2, Properties, Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Note 18, Segment Reporting, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Investing in our common stock involves risks. Our stockholders should carefully consider the risk factors below, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included herein. If any of these risks were to occur, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our stockholders at a particular rate, or at all, could be materially and adversely affected (which we refer to collectively as “materially and adversely affecting us” or having “a material adverse effect on us” and comparable phrases).
Risk Factor Summary
Below is a summary of the principal factors that make an investment in our common stock speculative or risky. This summary should be read in conjunction with the full risk factors contained below.
Risks Related to Our Business and Financial Results
•We are dependent on tenants for our revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
•The financial deterioration, insolvency or bankruptcy of one or more of our major tenants, operators, borrowers or other obligors could have a material adverse effect on us.
•We have experienced net losses in the past and we may experience additional losses in the future.
•Our prior performance may not be an accurate predictor of our ability to achieve our business objectives or of our future results.
•Our success is dependent on the performance and continued contributions of certain of our key personnel, and, in the event they are no longer employed by us, we could be materially and adversely affected.
•All of our integrated senior health campuses are managed by Trilogy Management Services, LLC, or the Trilogy Manager, and account for a significant portion of our revenues and operating income. Adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength could have a material adverse effect on us.
Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate
•Uncertain market conditions could lead our real estate investments to decrease in value or may cause us to sell our properties at a loss in the future.
•Most of our costs, such as operating and general and administrative expenses, interest expense and real estate acquisition and construction costs, are subject to inflation and may not be recoverable.
•Our high concentrations of properties in particular geographic areas magnify the effects of negative conditions affecting those geographic areas.
•Our real estate investments may be concentrated in OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs or other healthcare-related facilities, making us more vulnerable to negative factors affecting these classes than if our investments were diversified beyond the healthcare industry.
•Our business, tenants, residents and operators may face litigation and experience rising liability and insurance costs, which may materially and adversely affect us.
Risks Related to Real Estate-Related Investments
•Unfavorable real estate market conditions and delays in liquidating defaulted mortgage loan investments may negatively impact mortgage loans in which we have invested and may invest, which could result in losses to us.
•We expect a portion of our real estate-related investments to be illiquid, and we may not be able to adjust our portfolio in a timely manner in response to changes in economic and other conditions.
Risks Related to the Healthcare Industry
•The healthcare industry is heavily regulated, and new laws or regulations, changes to existing laws or regulations, loss of licensure or failure to obtain licensure could result in the inability of our tenants to make rent payments to us or adversely affect our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures.
•Reimbursement rates from third-party payors, including Medicare and Medicaid, that do not rise as quickly, or at all, compared to the rate of inflation, could adversely affect our tenants’ operations and ability to make rental payments to us or our profitability from operating facilities held in RIDEA structures.
•If seniors delay moving to senior housing facilities until they require greater care or forgo moving to senior housing facilities altogether, such action could have a material adverse effect on us.
•We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs may be subject to various government reviews, audits and investigations that could materially and adversely affect us, including an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us, potential criminal charges, the imposition of fines and/or the loss of the right to participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs.
Risks Related to Joint Ventures
•Property ownership through joint ventures could limit our control of those investments or our decisions with respect to other investments, restrict our ability to operate and finance properties on our terms, and reduce their expected return.
Risks Related to Debt Financing
•We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.
•To the extent we borrow funds at floating interest rates, we will be adversely affected by rising interest rates unless fully hedged. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt.
•Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants that could adversely affect our business.
Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Organization
•Our charter imposes a limit on the percentage of shares of our common stock or capital stock that any person may own, and such limit may discourage a takeover or business combination that may have benefited our stockholders.
Risks Related to Taxes and Our REIT Status
•Failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes would subject us to U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income at the regular corporate rate, which would substantially increase our income tax expenses and reduce our distributions to our stockholders.
•We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes that could increase our tax liability or reduce our operating flexibility.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
•An active trading market for our common stock may not be maintained.
•The market price and trading volume of shares of our common stock may be volatile.
•Because we have a large number of stockholders and shares of our common stock have not been listed on a national securities exchange until recently, there may be significant pent-up demand to sell shares of our common stock (including our Class T common stock and Class I common stock). Significant sales of shares of our common stock, or the perception that significant sales of such shares could occur, may cause the price of shares of our common stock to decline significantly.
•Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our common stock, or equity securities, which would dilute our existing stockholders and may be senior to our common stock, may adversely affect our stockholders.
•We may be unable to raise additional capital on favorable terms, or at all, needed to grow our business.
•Prior to our recent NYSE listing, we had no operating history as a publicly traded company and may not be able to successfully operate as a publicly traded company.
Risks Related to Our Business and Financial Results
We are dependent on tenants for our revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
The successful performance of our real estate investments is materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants. Lease payment defaults by tenants would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such leases and could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. If a property is subject to a mortgage, a default by a significant tenant on its lease payments to us may result in a foreclosure on the property if we are unable to find an alternative source of revenue to meet our mortgage payments. In the event of a tenant default, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-leasing our property. Further, we cannot assure our stockholders that we will be able to re-lease the property for the rent previously received, if at all, or that lease terminations will not cause us to sell the property at a loss.
The financial deterioration, insolvency or bankruptcy of one or more of our major tenants, operators, borrowers or other obligors could have a material adverse effect on us.
A downturn in any of our tenants’, operators’, borrowers’ or other obligors’ businesses could ultimately lead to voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceedings, including but not limited to assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, liquidation or winding-up. Bankruptcy and insolvency laws afford certain rights to a defaulting tenant, operator or borrower that has filed for bankruptcy or reorganization that may render certain of our remedies unenforceable or, at the least, delay our ability to pursue such remedies and realize any related recoveries. A debtor has the right to assume, or to assume and assign to a third party, or to reject its executory contracts and unexpired leases in a bankruptcy proceeding. If a debtor were to reject its leases with us, obligations under such rejected leases would cease. The claim against the rejecting debtor would be an unsecured claim, which would be limited by the statutory cap set forth in the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and there may be insufficient assets to satisfy all unsecured claims, even ones limited by the statutory cap. This statutory cap may be substantially less than the remaining rent actually owed under the lease. In addition, a debtor may also assert in bankruptcy proceedings that leases should be re-characterized as financing agreements, which could result in our being deemed a lender instead of a landlord. A lender’s rights and remedies, as compared to a landlord’s, generally are materially less favorable, and our rights as a lender may be subordinated to other creditors’ rights.
Furthermore, the automatic stay provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code would preclude us from enforcing our remedies unless we first obtain relief from the court having jurisdiction over the bankruptcy case. This would effectively limit or delay our ability to collect unpaid rent or interest payments, and we may ultimately not receive any payment at all. In addition, we would likely be required to fund certain expenses and obligations to preserve the value of our properties, avoid the imposition of liens on our properties or transition our properties to a new tenant or operator. Additionally, we lease many of our properties to healthcare providers who provide long-term custodial care to the elderly. Evicting operators for failure to pay rent while the property is occupied typically involves specific procedural or regulatory requirements and may not be successful. Even if eviction is possible, we may determine not to do so due to reputational or other risks. Bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings typically also result in increased costs to the operator, significant management distraction and performance declines. If we are unable to transition affected properties, they would likely experience prolonged operational disruption, leading to lower occupancy rates and further depressed revenues. Publicity about the operator’s financial troubles and bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings may also negatively impact their and our reputations, decreasing customer demand and revenues. Any or all of these risks could have a material adverse effect on us.
We have experienced net losses in the past and we may experience additional losses in the future.
Historically, we have experienced net losses (calculated in accordance with GAAP), and we may not be profitable or realize growth in the value of our investments. Many of our losses can be attributed to general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, as well as acquisition expenses incurred in connection with purchasing properties or making other investments. For a further discussion of our operational history and the factors affecting our net losses, see Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Our prior performance may not be an accurate predictor of our ability to achieve our business objectives or of our future results.
Our stockholders should not rely on our past performance to predict our future results. Our stockholders should review our prospects in light of the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by companies that have a limited operating history, many of which may be beyond our control. For example, due to challenging economic conditions in the past, distributions to stockholders were reduced. Therefore, to be successful in this market, we must, among other things:
•successfully manage our assets;
•attract, integrate, motivate and retain qualified personnel to manage our day-to-day operations; and
•respond to competition both for investment opportunities and potential investors’ investment in us.
We cannot guarantee that we will succeed in achieving these goals, and our failure to do so could materially and adversely affect us and the market price of our common stock could be highly volatile and decline significantly and our stockholders could lose all or a portion of their investment.
Our success is dependent on the performance and continued contributions of certain of our key personnel, and, in the event they are no longer employed by us, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Our success depends, to a significant degree, upon the continued contributions of our executives and key officers. In particular, Danny Prosky would be difficult to replace. Mr. Prosky currently serves as our Chief Executive Officer and one of our directors. In the event that Mr. Prosky or one of our other executives or key executive officers are no longer employed by us, for any reason, it could have a material adverse effect on us, and we may not be able to attract and hire equally capable individuals to replace them. If we were to lose the benefit of the experience, efforts and abilities of one or more of our executives or other key officers, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Our financial results and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders are subject to international, national and local market conditions we cannot control or predict.
We are subject to the risks of an international or national economic slowdown or downturn and other changes in international, national and local market conditions. The following factors may have affected, and may continue to affect, income from our properties, our ability to acquire and develop properties, and our overall financial results and ability to make distributions to our stockholders:
•poor economic times may result in defaults by tenants of our properties due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity or operational failures. We may provide rent concessions, tenant improvement expenditures or reduced rental rates to maintain or increase occupancy levels;
•fluctuations as a result of supply and demand imbalances and reduced occupancies and rental rates may cause the properties that we own to decrease in value. Consequently, we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of our properties, which may require us to recognize an impairment charge or record a loss on sale in our financial results;
•reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans;
•constricted access to credit may result in tenant defaults or non-renewals under leases;
•layoffs may lead to a lower demand for medical services and cause vacancies to increase and a lack of future population and job growth may make it difficult to maintain or increase occupancy levels;
•disruptions in the financial markets, deterioration in economic conditions or a public health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have resulted in the past, and may result in the future, in lower occupancy in our facilities, increased vacancy rates for commercial real estate due to generally lower demand for rentable space, as well as an oversupply of rentable space;
•governmental actions and initiatives, including risks associated with the impact of a prolonged government shutdown or budgetary reductions or impasses; and
•increased insurance premiums, real estate taxes or utilities or other expenses, such as inflation costs, will decrease our financial results and may reduce funds available for distribution to our stockholders or, to the extent such increases are passed through to tenants, may lead to tenant defaults. Also, any such increased expenses may not coincide with our ability to increase rents to tenants on turnover, which would adversely impact our financial results.
The length and severity of any economic slowdown or downturn cannot be predicted with confidence at this time. We have been, and we expect may continue to be, negatively impacted to the extent an economic slowdown or downturn is prolonged or becomes more severe.
We face significant competition for the acquisition and disposition of OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs and other healthcare-related facilities, which may impede our ability to take, and increase the cost of, such actions, which may materially and adversely affect us.
We face significant competition from other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions and dispositions of OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs and other healthcare-related facilities, some of whom may have greater resources, lower costs of capital and higher risk tolerances than we do. Increased competition makes it more challenging for us to identify and successfully capitalize on opportunities that meet our business objectives and could improve the bargaining power of our counterparties, thereby impeding our investment, acquisition and disposition activities. If we pay higher prices per property or receive lower prices for dispositions of our OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs or other healthcare-related facilities as a result of such competition, we may be materially and adversely affected.
Our investments in, and acquisitions of, OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs and other healthcare-related facilities may be unsuccessful or fail to meet our expectations.
Some of our acquisitions may not prove to be successful. We could encounter unanticipated difficulties and expenditures relating to any acquired properties, including contingent liabilities, and acquired properties might require significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business. Such expenditures may negatively affect our results of operations. Investments in and acquisitions of OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs and other healthcare-related facilities entail risks associated with real estate investments generally, including risks that the investment will not achieve expected returns, that the cost estimates for necessary property improvements will prove inaccurate or that the tenant or operator will fail to meet performance expectations. In addition, we may not be able to identify off-market or other investment opportunities or investment opportunities that are strategically marketed to a limited number of investors at the rate that we anticipate or at all. We may be unable to obtain or assume financing for acquisitions on favorable terms or at all. Healthcare properties are often highly customizable and the development or redevelopment of such properties may require costly tenant-specific improvements. We may experience delays and disruptions to property redevelopment as a result of supply chain issues and construction material and labor shortages. We also may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations, and this could have a material adverse effect on us. Acquired properties may be located in new markets, either within or outside the United States, where we may face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, lack of business relationships in the area, costs associated with opening a new regional office, and unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures. As a result, we cannot assure our stockholders that we will achieve the economic benefit we expect from acquisitions, investment, development and redevelopment opportunities and may lead to impairment of such assets.
We are uncertain of all of our sources of debt or equity for funding our capital needs. If we cannot obtain funding on favorable terms, our ability to acquire, and make necessary capital improvements to, properties may be impaired or delayed, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We have not identified all of our sources of debt or equity for funding, and such sources of funding may not be available to us on favorable terms or at all. If we do not have access to sufficient funding on favorable terms in the future, we may not be able to acquire new properties, make necessary capital improvements to our existing properties, pay other expenses, exercise our option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings (the purchase price of which must include at least a minimum cash consideration as defined in Note 13, Equity — Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity — Membership Interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings, or the Minimum Cash Consideration) or expand our business when desired, or at all, which would have a material adverse effect on us.
All of our integrated senior health campuses are managed by the Trilogy Manager and account for a significant portion of our revenues and operating income. Adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength could have a material adverse effect on us.
The Trilogy Manager manages all of the day-to-day operations for all of our integrated senior health campuses pursuant to a long-term management agreement. These integrated senior health campuses accounted for approximately 43.6% of our portfolio (based on aggregate contract purchase price) as of December 31, 2023 and contributed approximately 51.0% of our annualized base rent/annualized net operating income, or NOI, as of such date. Although we have various rights as the joint venture owner of these integrated senior health campuses under our management agreement, we rely on the Trilogy Manager’s personnel, expertise, technical resources and information systems, proprietary information, good faith and judgment to manage our integrated senior health campuses operations efficiently and effectively, and to identify and manage development opportunities for new integrated senior health campuses. We also rely on the Trilogy Manager to provide accurate campus-level financial results for our integrated senior health campuses in a timely manner and to otherwise operate our integrated senior health campuses in compliance with the terms of our management agreement and all applicable laws and regulations. We depend on the Trilogy Manager’s ability to attract and retain skilled personnel to provide these services. A shortage of nurses or other trained personnel or general inflationary pressures may force the Trilogy Manager to enhance its pay and benefits package to compete effectively for such personnel, the cost of which we would bear in proportion to our joint venture interest, but it may not be able to offset these added costs by increasing the rates charged to residents. As such, any adverse developments in the Trilogy Manager’s business or financial strength, including its ability to retain key personnel, could impair its ability to manage our integrated senior health campuses efficiently and effectively and could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, if the Trilogy Manager experiences any significant financial, legal, accounting or regulatory difficulties due to a weak economy, industry downturn or otherwise, such difficulties could result in, among other adverse events, acceleration of its indebtedness, impairment of its continued access to capital, the enforcement of default remedies by its counterparties or the commencement of insolvency proceedings by or against it under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Any one or a combination of these risks could have a material adverse effect on us. If we exercise our option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings, our indirect ownership of the assets managed by the Trilogy Manager would increase from 74.1% to 97.5% (in all cases assuming that there are no changes in the equity capitalization of Trilogy prior to consummation of the purchase).
In the event that our management agreement with the Trilogy Manager is terminated or not renewed, we may be unable to replace the Trilogy Manager with another suitable operator, or, if we were successful in locating such an operator, we cannot guarantee that it would manage the integrated senior health campuses efficiently and effectively or that any such transition would be completed timely, which may have a material adverse effect on us.
In the event we were to contemplate pursuing any existing or future contractual rights or remedies under our management agreement with the Trilogy Manager, including termination rights, we would consider numerous factors, including legal, contractual, regulatory, business and other relevant considerations. In the event that we exercise our rights to terminate the management agreement with the Trilogy Manager for any reason or such agreements are not renewed upon expiration of their terms, we would attempt to reposition the affected integrated senior health campuses with another operator. Although we believe that other qualified national and regional operators would be interested in managing our integrated senior health campuses, we cannot provide any assurance that we would be able to locate another suitable operator or, if we were successful in locating such an operator, that it would manage the integrated senior health campuses efficiently and effectively or that any such transition would be completed timely or would not require substantial capital expenditures. Any such transition would likely result in disruption of the operation of such facilities, including matters relating to staffing and reporting. Moreover, the transition to a replacement operator may require approval by the applicable regulatory authorities and, in most cases, one or more of our lenders, including the mortgage lenders for certain of the integrated senior health campuses, and we cannot provide any assurance that such approvals would be granted on a timely basis, if at all. Any inability to replace or delay in replacing the Trilogy Manager as the operator of our integrated senior health campuses with a highly qualified successor on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on us.
We may incur additional costs in re-leasing properties with specialized uses, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Some of the properties we have acquired and will seek to acquire are healthcare properties designed or built primarily for a particular tenant of a specific type of use known as a single-user facility. If we or our tenants terminate the leases for these properties or our tenants default on their lease obligations or lose their regulatory authority to operate such properties, we may not be able to locate suitable replacement tenants to lease the properties for their specialized uses. Alternatively, we may be required to spend substantial amounts to adapt the properties to other uses or incur other significant re-leasing costs. Any loss of revenues or additional capital expenditures required as a result may have a material adverse effect on us.
We may be unable to secure funds for future tenant or other capital improvements, which could limit our ability to attract, replace or retain tenants, pay our expenses and make distributions to our stockholders.
When tenants do not renew their leases or otherwise vacate their space, in order to attract replacement tenants, we have expended, and may be required to expend in the future, substantial funds for tenant improvements and leasing commissions related to the vacated space. Such tenant improvements have required, and may continue to require, us to incur substantial capital expenditures. If we have not established capital reserves for such tenant or other capital improvements, we will have to obtain financing from other sources. We may also have future financing needs for other capital improvements to refurbish or renovate our properties. If we need to secure financing sources for tenant or other capital improvements in the future, but are unable to secure such financing or are unable to secure financing on terms we feel are acceptable, we may be unable to make tenant and other capital improvements, or we may be required to defer such improvements. If this happens, it may cause one or more of our properties to suffer from a greater risk of obsolescence or a decline in value or a greater risk of decreased cash flows as a result of fewer potential tenants being attracted to the property or our existing tenants not renewing their leases. If we do not have access to sufficient funding in the future, we may also not be able to pay our expenses or make distributions to our stockholders.
A breach of information technology systems on which we rely could materially and adversely impact us.
We and our tenants and operators rely on information technology systems, including the internet and networks and systems maintained and controlled by third-party vendors and other third parties, to process, transmit and store information and to manage or support our business processes. Third-party vendors collect and hold personally identifiable information and other confidential information of our tenants, operators, patients, stockholders and employees. We also maintain confidential financial and business information regarding us and persons and entities with which we do business on our information technology systems. While we have enhanced our information technology systems in response to the general cybersecurity threat environment in recent years, we are not aware of any specific cybersecurity threat, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity or information security incident or breach, that has had a material effect on us, including our business strategy, results of operation or financial condition. However, there can be no assurances that a cybersecurity threat or incident that could have a material impact on us has not occurred or will not occur in the future.
While we and our tenants and operators take steps to protect the security of the information maintained in our information technology systems, including the use of commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring to provide security for processing, transmitting and storing of the information, it is possible that such security measures will not be able to prevent human error or the systems’ improper functioning, or the loss, misappropriation, disclosure or corruption of personally identifiable information or other confidential or sensitive information, including information about our tenants and employees. Cybersecurity breaches, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, phishing scams, attacks by hackers, breaches due to employee error or misconduct and similar breaches can create and, in some instances in the past, have resulted in, system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized access to information maintained on our information technology systems or the information technology systems of our third-party vendors or other third parties or otherwise cause disruption or negative impacts to occur to our business and materially and adversely affect us. While we and, we believe, most of our tenants and operators maintain cyber risk insurance to provide some coverage for certain risks arising out of cybersecurity breaches, there is no assurance that such insurance would cover all or a significant portion of the costs or consequences associated with a cybersecurity breach. As our reliance on technology increases, so will the risks posed to our information systems, both internal and those we outsource. In addition, as the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to information technology systems become more varied and sophisticated and the occurrence of such breaches becomes more frequent, we and our third-party vendors and other third parties may be unable to adequately anticipate these techniques or breaches and implement appropriate preventative measures. There is no guarantee that any processes, procedures and internal controls we have implemented or will implement will prevent cyber intrusions. Any failure to prevent cybersecurity breaches and maintain the proper function, security and availability of our or our third-party vendors’ and other third parties’ information technology systems could interrupt our operations, damage our reputation and brand, damage our competitive position, make it difficult for us to attract and retain tenants and subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties, which could materially and adversely affect us. Additionally, as increased regulatory compliance for cybersecurity protocols and disclosures, including rules requiring prompt disclosure of any material cybersecurity breaches or incidents, are required by state or federal authorities, the increased amount of resources, both time and expense, could also materially and adversely affect us, and we may be subject to regulatory action and lawsuits, should we fail to comply with such obligations.
Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate
Uncertain market conditions could lead our real estate investments to decrease in value or may cause us to sell our properties at a loss in the future.
Our management, subject to the oversight of our board, may exercise its discretion as to whether and when to sell a property, and we have no obligation to sell properties at any particular time or at all. We cannot predict with any certainty the various market conditions affecting real estate investments that will exist at any particular time in the future. As such, we may be purchasing our properties at a time when capitalization rates are at historically low levels and purchase prices are high. In addition, we may be required to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements before a property can be sold. We may not have adequate funds available to correct such defects or to make such improvements. Moreover, in acquiring a property, we may agree to restrictions that prohibit the sale of that property for a period of time or impose other restrictions, such as a limitation on the amount of debt that can be placed or repaid on that property. We cannot predict the length of time needed to find a willing purchaser and to close the sale of a property. The value of our properties may not increase over time, which may restrict our ability to sell our properties, or in the event we are able to sell such properties, may lead to sale prices less than the prices that we paid to purchase the properties or the price at which we value the property. Additionally, we may incur prepayment penalties in the event we sell a property subject to a mortgage earlier than we otherwise had planned. Accordingly, our ability to realize potential appreciation on our real estate investments and make distributions to our stockholders will, among other things, be dependent upon uncertain market conditions.
Most of our costs, such as operating and general and administrative expenses, interest expense and real estate acquisition and construction costs, are subject to inflation and may not be recoverable.
A significant portion of our operating expenses is sensitive to inflation. These include expenses for property-related costs such as insurance, utilities and repairs and maintenance. We also have ground lease expenses in certain of our properties. Ground lease costs are contractual, but in some cases, lease payments reset every few years based on changes on consumer price indexes.
Operating expenses on our non-RIDEA properties, with the exception of ground lease rental expenses, are typically recoverable through our lease arrangements, which allow us to pass through substantially all expenses associated with property taxes, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance and other operating expenses (including increases thereto) to our tenants. As of December 31, 2023, the majority of our existing leases were either triple-net leases or leases that allow us to recover certain operating expenses and certain capital expenditures. Our remaining leases are generally modified gross, or base year, leases, which only provide for recoveries of operating expenses above the operating expenses from the initial year within each lease. During inflationary periods such as those prevailing in recent years, we have historically been able to and expect to recover increases in operating expenses from our triple-net leases and our gross leases. For our RIDEA properties, increases in operating expenses, including labor, that are caused by inflationary pressures will generally be passed through to us and may materially and adversely affect us.
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation costs, as well as professional and legal fees. Annually, our employee compensation is adjusted to reflect merit increases; however, in order for us to maintain our ability to successfully compete for the best talent, rising inflation rates in recent years have required, and may continue to require, us to provide compensation increases beyond historical annual merit increases, which may significantly increase our compensation costs. Similarly, professional and legal fees are also subject to the impact of inflation and expected to increase proportionately with increasing market prices for such services. Consequently, inflation is expected to increase our general and administrative expenses over time and may materially and adversely affect us.
Also, during inflationary periods, interest rates have historically increased, which in recent years have increased the interest expense of our borrowings and could do so again. Our exposure to increases in interest rates is limited to our variable-rate borrowings, which consist of borrowings under our credit facilities and variable-rate mortgage loans payable. During 2023, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge $750,000,000 of our variable-rate credit facilities. As of December 31, 2023, our outstanding debt aggregated to $2,551,036,000, of which 31.8% was unhedged variable-rate debt. The rise in interest rates has also increased our interest expense on future fixed-rate borrowings. Therefore, a significant increase in inflation or interest rates would have a material adverse impact on our financing costs and interest expense.
We have long-term lease agreements with our tenants that contain effective annual rent escalations that were either fixed or indexed based on a consumer price index or other index. We believe our annual lease expirations allow us to reset these leases to market rents upon renewal or re-leasing and that annual rent escalations within our long-term leases are generally sufficient to offset the effect of inflation on non-recoverable costs, such as general and administrative expenses and interest expense. In addition, our leases often obligate the tenants to pay a pro rata share of any increase in operating expenses. However, it is possible that during higher inflationary periods, the impact of inflation will not be adequately offset by the
resetting of rents from our renewal and re-leasing activities, our annual rent escalations or the tenants’ pro rata payment of the increase in operating expenses. As a result, during periods when the impact of inflation exceeds the annual rent escalation percentages in our current leases and the percentage increase in rents in new leases, our financial results may be impaired.
Additionally, inflationary pricing may have a negative effect on the acquisition and construction costs necessary to complete our development and redevelopment projects, including, but not limited to, costs of construction materials, labor and services from third-party contractors and suppliers. Higher acquisition and construction costs could adversely impact our net investments in real estate and expected yields in our development and redevelopment projects, which may make otherwise lucrative investment opportunities less profitable to us. Any of these matters may materially and adversely affect us over time.
Our high concentrations of properties in particular geographic areas magnify the effects of negative conditions affecting those geographic areas.
We have a concentration of properties in particular geographic areas; therefore, any adverse situation that disproportionately effects one of those areas would have a magnified adverse effect on our portfolio. As of December 31, 2023, properties located in Indiana and Michigan accounted for approximately 35.3% and 10.4%, respectively, of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized NOI. Accordingly, there is a geographic concentration of risk subject to fluctuations in each such state’s economy, real estate and other market conditions.
Our real estate investments may be concentrated in OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs or other healthcare-related facilities, making us more vulnerable to negative factors affecting these classes than if our investments were diversified beyond the healthcare industry.
As a REIT, we invest primarily in real estate. Within the real estate industry, we have acquired, developed and owned, and may continue to acquire, or selectively develop and own, OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs and other healthcare-related facilities. As of December 31, 2023, our three major asset class concentrations (based on aggregate contract purchase price) were senior housing 37.6%, SNFs 29.9% and OM buildings 27.5%. We are subject to risks inherent in concentrating investments in real estate. These risks resulting from a lack of diversification become even greater as a result of our business objectives and growth strategies, which involve investing substantially all of our assets in clinical healthcare real estate.
A downturn in the commercial real estate industry generally could significantly adversely affect the value of our properties. A downturn in the healthcare industry could negatively affect our lessees’ ability to make lease payments to us and our operators’ ability to manage our properties efficiently and effectively. These matters could materially and adversely affect us and could be more pronounced than if we diversified our investments outside of real estate or if our portfolio did not include a substantial concentration in OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs or healthcare-related facilities.
Our buildings that are subject to ground leases could restrict our use of such facilities.
Our buildings that are subject to ground leases could restrict our use of such facilities. As of December 31, 2023, we own fee simple interests in all of our land, buildings and campuses, except for the following properties that are located on land that is subject to ground leases: (a) 19 OM buildings; (b) five integrated senior health campuses; and (c) one SNF, in each case, for which we own fee simple interests in the building and other improvements on such properties. Additionally, we operate 20 integrated senior health campuses that were leased to Trilogy by third parties. These ground leases contain certain restrictions. These restrictions include limits on our use of the facilities and ability to lease, sell or obtain mortgage financing secured by the facilities. There can be no assurance that the ground leases can be extended beyond the stated terms. These restrictions and term limitations could affect our returns on these facilities, which, in turn, could materially and adversely affect us. As a ground lessee, we are also exposed to the risk of reversion of the property upon expiration of the ground lease term or an earlier breach of the ground lease, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Our use of property-level rent coverages to measure our tenant’s ability to make rent payments may not be accurate.
We evaluate a lease’s property-level rent coverage ratio. Our calculations of rent coverage ratios are unaudited and are based on financial information provided to us by our tenants without independent verification on our part, and we must assume the appropriateness of estimates and judgments that were made by the party preparing the financial information. Our review of rent coverages may not adequately assess the risk of an investment, and, if our calculations are not accurate, we may be unaware that we have tenants that may be unable to make payments under their leases. If our assessment is inaccurate, our revenues could be materially and adversely affected.
Terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war, political protests and unrest or public health crises have affected and may affect the markets in which we operate and have a material adverse effect on us.
Terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war, political protests and unrest or public health crises (including the COVID-19 pandemic) have negatively affected, and may continue to negatively affect, our operations and our stockholders’ investments. We have acquired, and may continue to acquire, real estate assets located in areas that are susceptible to terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war, political protests or public health crises. These events may directly impact the value of our assets through damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs. Although we may obtain insurance to mitigate such risks, we may not be able to obtain sufficient coverage to fund any losses we may incur. Further, certain losses resulting from these types of events are uninsurable or not insurable at reasonable costs. In addition, other than any reserves we may establish, we have no source of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured damaged property, and we cannot assure our stockholders that any such sources of funding will be available to us for such purposes in the future. Also, to the extent we must pay unexpectedly large amounts for uninsured losses, our cash flows could be impaired in a manner that would result in little or no cash being distributed to our stockholders. More generally, any terrorist attack, other act of violence or war, political protest and unrest or public health crisis could result in increased volatility in, or damage to, the United States and worldwide financial markets and economy, all of which could adversely affect our tenants’ ability to pay rent on their leases with us, our operators’ ability to manage our properties efficiently and effectively and our ability to borrow money or issue capital stock on favorable terms, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our business, tenants, residents and operators may face litigation and experience rising liability and insurance costs, which may materially and adversely affect us.
With respect to our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, we are ultimately responsible for operational risks and other liabilities of the facility, other than those arising out of certain actions by our operator, such as gross negligence or willful misconduct. As such, operational risks include, and our resulting revenues therefore depend on, the availability and cost of general and professional liability insurance coverage or increases in insurance policy deductibles.
Inaccuracies in our underwriting assumptions and/or delays in the selection, acquisition, expansion or development of real properties may materially and adversely affect us.
Inaccuracies in our underwriting assumptions and/or delays we encounter in the selection, acquisition, expansion and development of real properties could materially and adversely affect us. In deciding whether to acquire, expand or develop a particular property, we make assumptions regarding the expected future performance of that property. In particular, we estimate the return on our investment based on expected construction costs, lease up velocity, occupancy, rental rates, operating expenses, capital costs and future competition. If our financial projections with respect to a new property are inaccurate, the property may fail to perform as we expected in analyzing our investment. Our development/expansion and construction projects are vulnerable to the impact of material shortages and inflation. For example, shortages and fluctuations in the price of lumber or in other important raw materials could result in delays in the start or completion of, or increase the cost of, developing one or more of our projects. Pricing for labor and raw materials can be affected by various national, regional, local, economic and political factors, including changes to immigration laws that impact the availability of labor or tariffs on imported construction materials.
In connection with our development, expansion and related construction activities, we may be unable to obtain, or suffer delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations, or satisfactory tax rates, incentives or abatements. Operators of new facilities we construct may need to obtain Medicare and Medicaid certification and enter into Medicare and Medicaid provider agreements and/or third-party payor contracts. In the event that the operator is unable to obtain the necessary licensure, certification, provider agreements or contracts after the completion of construction, there is a risk that we will not be able to earn any revenues on the facility until either the initial operator obtains a license or certification to operate the new facility and the necessary provider agreements or contracts or we find and contract with a new operator that is able to obtain a license to operate the facility for its intended use and the necessary provider agreements or contracts.
One of our growth strategies is to develop new and expand existing clinical healthcare real estate; we may do this directly or indirectly through joint ventures, including through Trilogy. Expanding and, in particular, developing properties exposes us to increased risks beyond those associated with investing in stabilized, cash flowing real estate. For example, actual costs could significantly exceed estimates (particularly during periods of rapid inflation), construction and stabilization (i.e., substantial lease-up) could take longer than expected, and occupancy and/or rental rates could prove to be lower than expected or property operating expenses could be higher. Any of these events could materially reduce any returns we achieve, or result in losses, on expansion or development projects. For the developments we have completed to date, the time to stabilization has varied, in some cases significantly, and certain developments have not yet stabilized. There can be no assurance that our current
or any future development or expansion projects will be completed in accordance with our budgeted expectations, that they will achieve our underwritten returns or result in yields on cost similar to those achieved on past investments, that they will be stabilized in accordance with our expectations or at all or that, if stabilization is achieved, such stabilization will be maintained. In addition, development and expansion projects undertaken indirectly through Trilogy are primarily overseen by the Trilogy Manager, and we do not have the same level of day-to-day involvement or control over such projects that we do in a project we undertake directly. Accordingly, with respect to projects undertaken through Trilogy, we rely on the development expertise of the Trilogy Manager.
Where properties are acquired prior to the start of construction or during the early stages of construction or when an existing property is expanded, it will typically take several months to complete construction and lease available space. Development and other construction projects, subject us to uncertainties associated with re-zoning for development, environmental concerns of governmental entities and/or community groups and our builder’s ability to build in conformity with plans, specifications, budgeted costs and timetables. If a builder fails to perform, we may resort to legal action to rescind the purchase or the construction contract or to compel performance. A builder’s performance may also be affected or delayed by conditions beyond the builder’s control. Delays in completion of construction could give tenants the right to terminate preconstruction leases for space at a newly developed project. We may incur additional risks if we make periodic progress payments or other advances to builders prior to completion of construction. These and other such factors can result in increased costs of a project or loss of our investment. In addition, we will be subject to normal lease-up risks relating to newly constructed projects. We also must rely on rental income and expense projections and estimates of the fair market value of property upon completion of construction when agreeing upon a price at the time we acquire the property. If our projections are inaccurate, we may pay too much for a property, and our return on our investment could suffer or result in a loss.
If we contract with a development company for newly developed property, our earnest money deposit made to the development company may not be fully refunded.
We may acquire one or more properties under development. We anticipate that, if we do acquire properties that are under development, we will be obligated to pay a substantial earnest money deposit at the time of contracting to acquire such properties, and that we will be required to close the purchase of the property upon completion of the development of the property. We may enter into such a contract with the development company even if, at the time we enter into the contract, we have not yet secured sufficient financing to enable us to close the purchase of such property. However, we may not be required to close a purchase from the development company, and may be entitled to a refund of our earnest money, generally in any of the following circumstances depending on the contract:
•the development company fails to complete the development of the property according to contractual requirements;
•all or a specified portion of the pre-leased tenants fail to take possession under their leases for any reason; or
•we are unable to secure sufficient financing to pay the purchase price at closing.
The obligation of the development company to refund our earnest money deposit will be unsecured, and we may not be able to obtain a refund of such earnest money deposit from it under these circumstances since the development company may be an entity without substantial assets or operations.
We may not retain any profits resulting from the sale of our properties or receive such profits in a timely manner, because we may provide financing to the purchaser of such property.
When we decide to sell one of our properties, we may provide financing to the purchasers. When we provide financing to purchasers, we will bear the risk that the purchaser may default on its obligations under the financing, which could negatively impact cash flows from operations. Even in the absence of a purchaser default, the distribution of sale proceeds or their reinvestment in other assets will be delayed until the promissory notes or other property we may accept upon the sale are actually paid, sold, refinanced or otherwise disposed of. In some cases, we may receive initial down payments in cash and other property in the year of sale in an amount less than the selling price, and subsequent payments will be spread over a number of years. Additionally, if any purchaser defaults under a financing arrangement with us, it could negatively impact our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
Representations and warranties made by us in connection with sales of our properties may subject us to liability that could materially and adversely affect us.
When we sell a property, we have been required, and may continue to be required, to make representations and warranties regarding the property and other customary items. In the event of a breach of such representations or warranties, the purchaser of the property may have claims for damages against us, rights to indemnification from us or otherwise have remedies against us. In any such case, we may incur liabilities that could materially and adversely affect us.
We face possible liability for environmental cleanup costs and damages for contamination related to properties we acquire, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Because we own and operate real estate, we are subject to various international, U.S. federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations. Under these laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. The costs of removal or remediation could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Under such laws, a current owner or operator of property can be held liable for contamination on the property caused by the former owner or operator. Environmental laws also may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures. Environmental laws provide for sanctions in the event of noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including the release of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real estate for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances. In addition, new or more stringent laws or stricter interpretations of existing laws could change the cost of compliance or liabilities and restrictions arising out of such laws. The cost of defending against these claims, complying with environmental regulatory requirements, conducting remediation of any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury claims could be substantial and could materially and adversely affect us. In addition, the presence of hazardous substances on a property or the failure to meet environmental regulatory requirements may materially impair our ability to use, lease or sell a property, or to use the property as collateral for borrowing.
Our current and future properties and our tenants may be unable to compete successfully, which could result in lower rent payments and could materially and adversely affect us.
Our current and future properties often will face competition from nearby properties that provide comparable services. Some of those competing properties are owned by governmental agencies and supported by tax revenues, and others are owned by nonprofit corporations and may be supported to a large extent by endowments and charitable contributions. These types of support are not available to our properties. Operators of competing properties may provide superior services than those provided by our operators, which could reduce the competitiveness of our properties, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Similarly, our OM building and senior housing — leased tenants face competition from other medical practices in nearby hospitals and other medical facilities, and their failure to compete successfully with these other practices could adversely affect their ability to make rental payments to us, which could materially and adversely affect us. Further, from time to time and for reasons beyond our control, referral sources, including physicians and managed care organizations, may change their lists of hospitals or physicians to which they refer patients or that are permitted to participate in the payor program. This could also adversely affect our tenants’ ability to make rental payments to us, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Ownership of property outside the United States may subject us to different or greater risks than those associated with our domestic operations.
International development, ownership and operating activities involve risks that are different from those we face with respect to our domestic development, ownership and operating activities. For example, we have limited investing experience in international markets. As of December 31, 2023, we have investments in the United Kingdom, or the UK, and the Isle of Man that represent 1.4% of our portfolio, based on our aggregate purchase price of real estate investments. If we are unable to successfully manage the risks associated with international expansion and operations, we may be adversely affected.
Additionally, our ownership of properties in the UK and the Isle of Man currently subjects us to fluctuations in the exchange rates between U.S. dollars and the UK Pound Sterling, which may, from time to time, impact our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Revenues generated from any properties or other real estate-related investments we acquire or ventures we enter into relating to transactions involving assets located in markets outside the United States likely will be denominated in the local currency. Therefore, any investments we make outside the United States will subject us to foreign currency risk due to potential fluctuations in exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar, and there can be no
assurance that any attempt to mitigate foreign currency risk through hedging transactions or otherwise will be successful. As a result, changes in exchange rates of any such foreign currency to U.S. dollars may materially and adversely affect us and the book value of our assets. In addition, changes in foreign currency exchange rates used to value a REIT’s foreign assets may be considered changes in the value of the REIT’s assets. These changes may adversely affect our status as a REIT. Further, bank accounts in a foreign currency which are not considered cash or cash equivalents may adversely affect our status as a REIT.
Acquired properties may expose us to unknown liability.
We may acquire properties or invest in joint ventures that own properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, against the prior owners or other third parties with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle or contest it, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flow. Unknown liabilities with respect to acquired properties might include liabilities for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination, claims by tenants, vendors or other persons against the former owners of the properties, liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business, and claims for indemnification by general partners, directors and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties.
Severe weather events, natural disasters and the effects of climate change and regulatory and societal responses thereto could materially and adversely affect us.
Natural disasters and severe weather events, including earthquakes, fires, storms, tornados, floods, hurricanes, snow and freezing temperatures could cause significant damage to our properties and the surrounding environment or area. Climate change is causing such events to become more frequent and increasingly severe in their effects, which could increase the costs to and impact on us and our operators over time. The effects of such events on our properties may include increased operational costs, including energy costs, delays and cost increases in our construction projects, damage to our facilities and periods when impacted facilities may be partially or wholly unoccupied, power outages and reputational damage.
Additionally, we are subject to transition risk from international, governmental and societal responses to climate change that may materially and adversely affect us or our operators, including through shifts in fuel sources leading to short- or long-term increases in energy costs and new and more stringent building codes pertaining to energy efficiency, reduced emissions or weather resistance that may be more costly to comply with, any of which could increase our building costs and our and our operators’ capital expenditures, maintenance and operating costs. Also, we are or may become subject to new laws and market expectations with respect to disclosure requirements, and this may result in additional investments and implementation of new practices and reporting processes, all entailing additional compliance costs and risk. For example, the EU recently adopted the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive that will impose disclosure of the risks and opportunities arising from social and environmental issues and of the impact of companies’ activities on people and the environment. Similarly, the State of California recently passed the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act and the Climate-Related Financial Risk Act that will impose broad climate-related disclosure obligations on companies doing business in California. The SEC has included in its regulatory agenda potential rulemaking on climate change disclosures that, if adopted, could significantly increase compliance burdens and associated regulatory costs and complexity. These and other changes in international, federal, state, or local regulation or in societal expectations could materially and adversely affect us directly or indirectly through the impact on our operators.
Risks Related to Real Estate-Related Investments
Unfavorable real estate market conditions and delays in liquidating defaulted mortgage loan investments may negatively impact mortgage loans in which we have invested and may invest, which could result in losses to us.
The investment in mortgage loans or mortgage-backed securities we have made, and may continue to make, involve special risks relating to the particular borrower or issuer of the mortgage-backed securities and we will be at risk of loss on those investments, including losses as a result of defaults on our mortgage loan investments. These losses may be caused by many conditions beyond our control, including economic conditions affecting real estate values, tenant defaults and lease expirations, interest rate levels, and the other economic and liability risks associated with real estate. If we acquire property by foreclosure following defaults under our mortgage loan investments, we will have the economic and liability risks as the owner described above. We do not know whether the values of the property securing any of our mortgage loan investments will remain at the levels existing on the dates we initially make the related investment. If the values of the underlying properties drop, our risk will increase and the values of our interests may decrease. Furthermore, if there are defaults under our mortgage loan investments, we may not be able to foreclose on or obtain a suitable remedy with respect to such investments. Specifically, we may not be able to repossess and sell the underlying properties quickly, which could reduce the value of our investment. For example, an action to foreclose on a property securing a mortgage loan is regulated by state statutes and rules and is subject to many of the delays and expenses of lawsuits if the defendant raises defenses or counterclaims. Additionally, in the event of
default by a mortgagor, these restrictions, among other things, may impede our ability to foreclose on or sell the mortgaged property or to obtain proceeds sufficient to repay all amounts due to us on the mortgage loan.
The commercial mortgage-backed securities in which we have invested, and may continue to invest, are subject to several types of risks.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities are securities which evidence interests in, or are secured by, a single commercial mortgage loan or a pool of commercial mortgage loans. Accordingly, the commercial mortgage-backed securities in which we have invested, and may continue to invest, are subject to all the risks of the underlying mortgage loans.
In a rising interest rate environment like the one that has prevailed in recent years, the value of commercial mortgage-backed securities may be adversely affected when payments on underlying mortgages loan(s) do not occur as anticipated, resulting in the extension of the security’s effective maturity and the related increase in interest rate sensitivity of a longer-term instrument. The value of commercial mortgage-backed securities may also change due to shifts in the market’s perception of securitization sponsors and borrower sponsors and regulatory or tax changes adversely affecting the mortgage securities markets as a whole. In addition, commercial mortgage-backed securities are subject to the credit risk associated with the performance of the underlying mortgage properties.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities are also subject to several risks created through the securitization structuring process. Subordinate commercial mortgage-backed securities are paid to the extent that there are funds available to make payments. To the extent the collateral pool includes a large percentage of delinquent loans, there is a risk that payments on subordinate commercial mortgage-backed securities will not be fully paid. In addition, commercial mortgage-backed securities are also subject to greater credit risk than those commercial mortgage-backed securities of the same series that are more highly rated.
The mezzanine loans in which we have invested in the past, and may continue to invest, involve greater risks of loss than senior loans secured by income-producing real estate.
We have in the past, and may in the future, invest in mezzanine loans that take the form of subordinated loans secured by second mortgages on the underlying real estate or loans secured by a pledge of the ownership interests of either the entity owning the real estate or the entity that owns the interest in the entity owning the real estate. These types of investments involve a higher degree of risk than long-term senior mortgage lending secured by income-producing real estate because the investment may become unsecured as a result of foreclosure by the senior lender. In the event of a bankruptcy of the entity providing the pledge of its ownership interests as security, we may not have full recourse to the assets of such entity or the assets of the entity may not be sufficient to satisfy our mezzanine loan. If a borrower defaults on our mezzanine loan or debt senior to our loan or in the event of a borrower bankruptcy, our mezzanine loan will be satisfied only after the senior debt. As a result, we may not recover some or all of our investment. In addition, mezzanine loans may have higher loan-to-value ratios than conventional mortgage loans, resulting in less equity in the real estate and increasing the risk of loss of principal.
We expect a portion of our real estate-related investments to be illiquid, and we may not be able to adjust our portfolio in a timely manner in response to changes in economic and other conditions.
We may acquire real estate-related investments in connection with privately negotiated transactions which are not registered under the relevant securities laws, resulting in a prohibition against their transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition except in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of, or is otherwise not subject to, those laws. As a result, our ability to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions may be relatively limited. The mezzanine and bridge loans we may purchase will be particularly illiquid investments due to their short life, their unsuitability for securitization and the greater difficulty of recoupment in the event of a borrower’s default.
Bridge loans involve a greater risk of loss than traditional investment-grade mortgage loans with fully insured borrowers.
We have in the past, and may in the future, acquire bridge loans secured by first lien mortgages on a property to borrowers who are typically seeking short-term capital to be used in an acquisition, construction or rehabilitation of a property, or other short-term liquidity needs. The typical borrower under a bridge loan has usually identified an undervalued asset that has been under-managed and/or is located in a recovering market. If the market in which the asset is located fails to recover according to the borrower’s projections, or if the borrower fails to improve the quality of the asset’s management and/or the value of the asset, the borrower may not receive a sufficient return on the asset to satisfy the bridge loan, and we bear the risk that we may not recover some or all of our initial expenditure.
In addition, borrowers usually use the proceeds of a conventional mortgage to repay a bridge loan. A bridge loan therefore is subject to the risk of a borrower’s inability to obtain permanent financing to repay the bridge loan. Bridge loans are also subject to risks of borrower defaults, bankruptcies, fraud, losses and special hazard losses that are not covered by standard hazard insurance. In the event of any default under bridge loans held by us, we bear the risk of loss of principal and non-payment of interest and fees to the extent of any deficiency between the value of the mortgage collateral and the principal amount and unpaid interest of the bridge loan. To the extent we suffer such losses with respect to our bridge loans, we may be materially and adversely affected.
If we sell real estate-related investments prior to their maturity, we may be forced to sell those investments on unfavorable terms or at a loss.
Our board may choose to sell certain of our assets from time to time, including our real estate-related investments. If we plan to sell those investments prior to their maturity, we may be forced to do so at undesirable times and on unfavorable terms, which may result in losses. For instance, if we sell mortgage loans at a time when prevailing interest rates are higher than the interest rates of such mortgage loans, we would likely sell such loans at a discount to their stated principal values.
Risks Related to the Healthcare Industry
The healthcare industry is heavily regulated and new laws or regulations, changes to existing laws or regulations, loss of licensure or failure to obtain licensure could result in the inability of our tenants to make rent payments to us or adversely affect our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures.
The healthcare industry is heavily regulated by federal, state and local governmental bodies. The tenants and operators of our healthcare facilities generally will be subject to laws and regulations covering, among other things, licensure, certification for participation in government programs and relationships with physicians and other referral sources. Changes in these laws and regulations, or a tenant’s or operator’s failure to comply with these laws and regulations, could adversely affect us. For example, such non-compliance could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us. Similarly, were an operator of a facility held in a RIDEA structure (where we benefit from positive operating performance, if any, at such facilities) to fail to comply with a regulatory obligation, it could adversely affect the operating performance of the facility and our participation therein.
Many of our healthcare facilities and their tenants and operators require a license or CON. Failure to obtain a license or CON, or the loss of a required license or CON, would prevent a facility from operating in the manner intended by the tenant or operator. These events could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or for an operator to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. Similarly, state and local laws also may regulate expansion, including the addition of new beds/units or services or the acquisition of medical equipment at a facility, and the construction of healthcare-related facilities, by requiring a CON or other similar approval. State CON laws and other similar laws are not uniform throughout the United States and are subject to change. Restrictions on the expansion of our facilities could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or for an operator to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. We cannot predict the impact of state CON laws or similar laws on our development or expansion of facilities or the operations of our tenants or operators.
In addition, in certain areas, state CON laws materially limit the ability of competitors to enter into the markets served by our facilities, thereby limiting competition. The repeal of CON laws could allow competitors to freely operate in previously closed markets. Any such increased competition could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or for an operator to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. These CON laws could also restrict our ability to expand in new markets.
In certain circumstances, loss of state licensure or certification or closure of a facility could ultimately result in loss of authority to operate the facility or provide services at the facility and require new CON authorization licensure and/or authorization or potential authorization from CMS to re-institute operations. As a result, the value of the facility may be reduced, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Reimbursement rates from third-party payors, including Medicare and Medicaid, that do not rise as quickly, or at all, compared to the rate of inflation, could adversely affect our tenants’ operations and ability to make rental payments to us or our profitability from operating facilities held in RIDEA structures.
Sources of revenue for our tenants and operators may include the federal Medicare program, state Medicaid programs, private insurance carriers and health maintenance organizations, among others. Efforts by such payors to reduce healthcare costs will likely continue, which may result in the slower growth in reimbursement rates for certain services provided by some of our tenants and operators, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, the healthcare billing rules and regulations are complex, and the failure of any of our tenants or operators to comply with various laws and regulations could jeopardize their ability to continue participating in Medicare, Medicaid, and other government sponsored payment programs. Moreover, the state and federal governmental healthcare payment programs are subject to state and federal legislative actions, and changes in reimbursement models may reduce our tenants’ and operators’ revenues and adversely affect our tenants’ ability to make rent payments to us or our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
The healthcare industry continues to face various challenges, including increased government and private payor pressure on healthcare providers to control or reduce costs. It is possible that our tenants and operators will continue to experience a shift in payor mix away from fee-for-service payors, resulting in an increase in the percentage of revenues attributable to reimbursement based upon value-based principles and quality driven managed care programs, and general industry trends that include pressures to control healthcare costs. Pressures to control healthcare costs and a shift away from traditional health insurance reimbursement based upon a fee for service payment to payment based upon quality outcomes have increased the uncertainty of payments.
In addition, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, or the Healthcare Reform Act, was passed with an intent to reduce the number of individuals in the United States without health insurance and effect significant other changes to the ways in which healthcare is organized, delivered and reimbursed. Included within the legislation is a limitation on physician-owned hospitals from expanding facility capacity, unless the facility satisfies very narrow federal exceptions to this limitation. Therefore, if our tenants are physicians that own and refer to a hospital, the hospital may be limited in its operations and expansion potential, which may limit the hospital’s services and resulting revenues and may impact the owner’s ability to make rental payments.
Furthermore, the Healthcare Reform Act included new payment models with new shared savings programs and demonstration programs that include bundled payment models and payments contingent upon reporting on satisfaction of quality benchmarks. The new payment models will likely change how physicians are paid for services. These changes could negatively affect some of our tenants and operators, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, was signed into law and repealed the individual mandate financial penalty portion of the Healthcare Reform Act beginning in 2019. With the elimination of the individual mandate enforcement mechanism, several states brought suit seeking to invalidate the entire Healthcare Reform Act. On June 17, 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed this lawsuit without specifically ruling on the constitutionality of the law. In addition, President Biden issued an executive order initiating a special enrollment period as a result of the pandemic from February 15, 2021 through August 15, 2021 for purposes of obtaining health insurance coverage through the ACA marketplace. The executive order also instructed federal agencies to review and reconsider their existing policies and rules that limit access to healthcare. However, challenges to the Healthcare Reform Act may continue. If all or a portion of the Healthcare Reform Act, including the individual mandate, is eventually ruled unconstitutional, our tenants and operators may have more patients and residents who do not have insurance coverage, which may adversely impact the tenants’ and operators’ collections and revenues. Additionally, in October 2022, the Biden Administration announced new actions by CMS to strengthen accountability for nursing homes participating in the Special Focus Facilities, or SFF, an oversight program designed to monitor poor-performing nursing homes. These reforms include strengthened penalties for SFF nursing homes that fail to improve, increases in safety standards that SFF nursing homes must implement and increased communication between CMS and SFF nursing homes. The announcement further noted that the administration will continue to take administrative action to improve oversight of nursing homes moving forward. The financial impact on our tenants and operators could adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the ACA was enacted. These changes included aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of 2% per fiscal year, which went into effect on April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments to the statute, some of which have changed the 2% amount for specific years or suspended the 2% for specific years, will remain in effect through 2032, unless additional Congressional action is taken. The financial impact on our tenants and operators could adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate facilities efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We cannot predict the ultimate content, timing or effect of any further healthcare reform legislation or the impact of potential legislation on us. We expect that additional state and federal healthcare reform measures will be adopted in the future, any of which could limit the amounts that federal and state governments will pay for healthcare services, which may adversely impact our tenants’ ability to make rental payments to us or our operators’ ability to operate facilities held in RIDEA structures efficiently, either of, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
If seniors delay moving to senior housing facilities until they require greater care or forgo moving to senior housing facilities altogether, such action could have a material adverse effect on us.
Some seniors have been delaying their moves to senior housing facilities, including to our triple-net leased properties and SHOP, until they require greater care and are increasingly forgoing moving to senior housing facilities altogether. Further, rehabilitation therapy and other services that have become available to seniors as alternative options on an outpatient basis or in seniors’ personal residences in response to market demand and government regulation may increase the trend for seniors to delay moving to senior housing facilities. Such delays may cause decreases in occupancy rates and increases in resident turnover rates at our senior housing facilities. Moreover, seniors may have greater care needs and require higher acuity services, which may increase our tenants’ and operators’ cost of business, expose our tenants and operators to additional liability, or result in lost business and shorter stays at our leased and managed senior housing facilities if our tenants and operators are not able to provide the requisite care services or fail to adequately provide those services. These trends may negatively impact the occupancy rates and revenues at our leased and managed senior housing, which could have a material adverse effect on us. Further, if any of our tenants or operators are unable to offset lost revenues from these trends by providing and growing other revenue sources, such as new or increased service offerings to seniors, our senior housing facilities may be unprofitable, we may receive lower returns and rent, and the value of our senior housing facilities may decline.
Events that adversely affect the ability of seniors and their families to afford resident fees at our senior housing facilities could cause our occupancy rates and revenues to decline, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Costs to seniors associated with independent and assisted living services are generally not reimbursable under Medicare, and the scope of services that may be covered by Medicaid varies by state. In many cases, only seniors with income or assets meeting or exceeding the comparable median in the regions where our facilities are located typically will be able to afford to pay the entrance fees and monthly resident fees, and a weak economy, depressed housing market or changes in demographics could adversely affect their continued ability to do so. If our tenants and operators are unable to retain and attract seniors with sufficient income, assets or other resources required to pay the fees associated with independent and assisted living services and other services provided by our tenants and operators at our healthcare facilities, our occupancy rates and revenues could decline, which could, in turn, materially and adversely affect us.
Some tenants and operators of our facilities will be subject to fraud and abuse laws, the violation of which could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
There are various federal, foreign and state laws prohibiting fraudulent and abusive business practices by healthcare providers who participate in, receive payments from, or are in a position to make referrals in connection with government-sponsored healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. Our contractual arrangements with tenants and operators may also be subject to these fraud and abuse laws, including federal laws such as the Anti-Kickback Statute and the Stark Law. Moreover, our agreements with tenants and operators may be required to satisfy individual state law requirements that vary from state to state, which impacts the terms and conditions that may be negotiated in such agreements.
These federal and foreign laws include:
•the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a criminal law which prohibits, among other things, the offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of remuneration, directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or in kind, in return for, or to induce, the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any item or service for which payment may be made under a federal healthcare program such as Medicare and Medicaid;
•the Federal Physician Self-Referral Prohibition, which, subject to specific exceptions, restricts physicians from making referrals for specifically designated health services for which payment may be made under federal healthcare programs to an entity with which the physician, or an immediate family member, has a financial relationship;
•the False Claims Act, which prohibits any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, false or fraudulent claims for payment or approval that are false or fraudulent or making a false statement to avoid, decrease or conceal an obligation to pay money to the federal government, including claims paid by the Medicare and Medicaid programs;
•the Civil Monetary Penalties Law, which authorizes the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services to impose monetary penalties or exclusion from participating in state or federal healthcare programs for certain fraudulent acts;
•the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, which makes it a federal crime to defraud any health benefit plan, including private payors;
•the Exclusions Law, which authorizes the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services to exclude persons or entities from participating in state or federal healthcare programs for certain fraudulent acts; and
•the UK Bribery Act 2010, a criminal law which relates to any function of a public nature, connected with a business, performed in the course of a person’s employment or performed on behalf of a company or another body of persons, covering bribery both in the public and private sectors.
Each of these laws includes criminal and/or civil penalties for violations that range from punitive sanctions, damage assessments, penalties, imprisonment, denial of Medicare and Medicaid payments and/or exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Monetary penalties associated with violations of these laws have been increased in recent years. Certain laws, such as the False Claims Act, allow for individuals to bring whistleblower actions on behalf of the government for violations thereof. Additionally, states in which the facilities are located may have similar fraud and abuse laws. Investigation by a federal or state governmental body for violation of fraud and abuse laws or imposition of any of these penalties upon one of our tenants or operators or a settlement relating to such matters could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Efforts to ensure compliance with applicable healthcare laws and regulations may cause our tenants and operators to incur substantial costs that could materially and adversely affect a tenant’s ability to make rent payments to us or an operator’s ability to operate a facility held in a RIDEA structure efficiently, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Adverse trends in healthcare provider operations may materially and adversely affect us.
The healthcare industry is currently experiencing:
•changes in the demand for and methods of delivering healthcare services;
•changes in third-party reimbursement policies;
•significant unused capacity in certain areas, which has created substantial competition for patients among healthcare providers in those areas;
•increased expenses for uninsured patients;
•increased competition among healthcare providers;
•increased liability insurance expenses;
•continued pressure by private and governmental payors to reduce payments to providers of services;
•increased scrutiny of billing, referral and other practices by federal and state authorities;
•changes in federal and state healthcare program payment models;
•increased emphasis on compliance with privacy and security requirements related to personal health information; and
•increased instability in the Health Insurance Exchange market and lack of access to insurance plans participating in the exchange.
Additionally, in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, many governmental entities relaxed certain licensure and other regulatory requirements relating to telemedicine, allowing more patients to virtually access care without having to visit a healthcare facility. Despite the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency, if governmental and regulatory authorities continue to allow for increased virtual healthcare, this may affect the demand for some of our properties, such as OM buildings.
These factors may negatively affect the economic performance of some or all of our tenants and operators, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our tenants and operators may be affected by the financial deterioration, insolvency and/or bankruptcy of other companies in the healthcare industry.
Certain companies in the healthcare industry, including some key senior housing operators, are experiencing considerable financial, legal and/or regulatory difficulties which have resulted or may result in financial deterioration and, in some cases, insolvency and/or bankruptcy. The adverse effects on these companies could have a significant impact on the industry as a whole, including but not limited to negative public perception by investors, lenders, patients and residents. As a result, our tenants and properties managed by our operators could experience the damaging financial effects of a weakened industry sector driven by negative headlines, and we could be materially and adversely affected.
Our tenants and operators may be subject to significant legal and regulatory actions that could subject them to increased operating costs and substantial uninsured liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Our tenants and operators may become subject to claims that their services have resulted in patient injury or other adverse effects. Healthcare providers have experienced an increasing trend in the frequency and severity of professional liability and general liability insurance claims and litigation asserted against them. The insurance coverage maintained by our tenants and operators may not cover all claims made against them nor continue to be available at a reasonable cost, if at all. In some states, insurance coverage for the risk of punitive damages arising from professional liability and general liability claims and/or litigation may not, in certain cases, be available to our tenants and operators due to state law prohibitions or limitations of availability. As a result, tenants and operators of our OM buildings, senior housing, SNFs and other healthcare-related facilities operating in these states may be liable for punitive damage awards that are either not covered or are in excess of their insurance policy limits. We also believe that there has been, and will continue to be, an increase in regulatory or other governmental investigations of certain healthcare providers, particularly in the area of Medicare/Medicaid false claims, as well as an increase in enforcement actions resulting from these investigations. Insurance may not always be available to cover such losses. Any adverse determination or settlement in a legal proceeding or regulatory or other governmental investigation, whether currently asserted or arising in the future, could negatively affect a tenant’s or operator’s business and financial strength. If a tenant or operator is unable to obtain or maintain insurance coverage, if judgments are obtained in excess of the insurance coverage, if uninsured punitive damages are required to be paid, or if an uninsurable government enforcement action is brought, the tenant or operator could be exposed to substantial additional liabilities, which may affect the tenant’s ability to pay rent to us or the operator’s ability to manage our properties efficiently and effectively, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs may be subject to various government reviews, audits and investigations that could materially and adversely affect us, including an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us, potential criminal charges, the imposition of fines and/or the loss of the right to participate in Medicare and Medicaid programs.
We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs are subject to various governmental reviews, audits and investigations to verify compliance with the Medicaid and Medicare programs and applicable laws and regulations. We, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs are also subject to audits under various government programs, including Recovery Audit Contractors, Unified Program Integrity Contractors, and other third party audit programs, in which third-party firms engaged by CMS conduct extensive reviews of claims data and medical and other records to identify potential improper payments under the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Private pay sources also reserve the right to conduct audits. An adverse review, audit or investigation could result in:
•an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us, our tenants or our operators pursuant to the Medicare or Medicaid programs or from private payors, in amounts that could be material to us;
•state or federal agencies imposing fines, penalties and other sanctions on us, our tenants or our operators;
•loss of our right, our tenants’ right or our operators’ right to participate in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or one or more private payor networks;
•an increase in private litigation against us, our tenants or our operators; and
•damage to our reputation in various markets.
While we, our tenants and our operators for our senior housing facilities and SNFs have always been subject to post-payment audits and reviews, more intensive “probe reviews” appear to be a permanent procedure with our fiscal intermediaries. If the government or a court were to conclude that such errors, deficiencies or disagreements constituted criminal violations or were to conclude that such errors, deficiencies or disagreements resulted in the submission of false claims to federal healthcare programs, or if the government were to discover other problems in addition to the ones identified by the probe reviews that rose to actionable levels, we, our officers and our tenants and operators and their officers might face potential criminal charges and/or civil claims, administrative sanctions and penalties for amounts that could be material to us. In addition, we, our officers and other key personnel and our tenants and operators and their officers and other key personnel could be temporarily or permanently excluded from future participation in state and federal healthcare reimbursement programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. In any event, it is likely that a governmental investigation alone, regardless of its outcome, would divert material time, resources and attention from our management team and our staff or those of our tenants and our operators and could materially and adversely affect us during and after any such investigation or proceedings.
In cases where claim and documentation review by any CMS contractor results in repeated poor performance, a facility can be subjected to protracted oversight. This oversight may include repeat education and re-probe, extended pre-payment review, referral to recovery audit or integrity contractors, or extrapolation of an error rate to other reimbursement outside of specifically reviewed claims. Sustained failure to demonstrate improvement towards meeting all claim filing and documentation requirements could ultimately lead to Medicare and Medicaid decertification, which materially and adversely affects us. Adverse actions by CMS may also cause third-party payor or licensure authorities to audit our tenants or operators. These additional audits could result in termination of third-party payor agreements or licensure of the facility, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
In addition, our tenants and operators that accepted relief funds distributed to combat the adverse effects of COVID-19 and reimburse providers for unreimbursed expenses and lost revenues may be subject to certain reporting and auditing obligations associated with the receipt of such relief funds. If these tenants or operators fail to comply with the terms and conditions associated with relief funds, they may be subject to government recovery and enforcement actions. Furthermore, regulatory guidance relating to use of the relief funds, recordkeeping requirements and other terms and conditions continues to evolve and there is a high degree of uncertainty surrounding many aspects of the relief funds. This uncertainty may create compliance challenges for tenants and operators who accepted relief funds.
The Healthcare Reform Act and similar foreign laws impose additional requirements regarding compliance and disclosure.
The Healthcare Reform Act requires SNFs to have a compliance and ethics program that is effective in preventing and detecting criminal, civil and administrative violations and in promoting quality of care as a condition of participation in Medicare and Medicaid. If our operators fall short in their compliance and ethics programs and quality assurance and performance improvement programs, if and when required, their reputations and ability to attract patients and residents could be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
Similar requirements also apply to healthcare properties in the UK under national law and guidance. The Health & Care Professions Council, the regulator of health, psychological and care professionals in the UK, requires a qualification to demonstrate standards of proficiency and also set standards, hold a register, quality assure education and investigate complaints. They have set out an ethical framework with standards of conduct, performance and ethics including restrictions on confidentiality and the use of social media. If any of our operators in the UK fall short in their obligations, their reputations and ability to attract patients and residents may be adversely affect which might have a material adverse effect on their business and by extension us.
Risks Related to Joint Ventures
Property ownership through joint ventures could limit our control of those investments or our decisions with respect to other investments, restrict our ability to operate and finance properties on our terms and reduce their expected return.
In connection with the purchase of real estate, we have entered, and may continue to enter, into joint ventures with third parties. We may also purchase or develop properties in co-ownership arrangements with the property sellers, developers or other parties. We may own properties through both consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. These structures involve participation in the investment by other parties whose interests and rights may not be the same as ours. Our joint ventures, and joint ventures we may enter into in the future, may involve risks not present with respect to our wholly-owned properties, including the following:
•we may share with, or even delegate decision-making authority to, our joint venture partners regarding certain major decisions affecting the ownership or operation of the joint venture and the joint venture property, such as, but not limited to, (i) additional capital contribution requirements, (ii) obtaining, refinancing or paying off debt and (iii) obtaining consent prior to the sale or transfer of our interest in the joint venture to a third party, which may prevent us from taking actions that are opposed by our joint venture partners;
•our joint venture partners might become bankrupt and such proceedings could have an adverse impact on the operations of the joint venture;
•our joint venture partners may have business interests or goals with respect to the joint venture property that conflict with our business interests and goals, which could increase the likelihood of disputes regarding the ownership, management or disposition of the property;
•in some instances, we may enter into arrangements with our joint venture partners that may (i) require an acquisition opportunity to be allocated to the joint venture when we otherwise may have acquired the asset ourselves or (ii) cause the joint venture to sell an asset at a time when we otherwise may not have initiated such a transaction;
•disputes may develop with our joint venture partners over decisions affecting the joint venture property or the joint venture, which may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and distract our officers from focusing their time and effort on our business, disrupt the day-to-day operations of the property, such as by delaying the implementation of important decisions until the conflict is resolved, have an adverse impact on the operations and profitability of the joint venture and possibly force a sale of the property if the dispute cannot be resolved;
•our joint venture partners may be unable to or refuse to make capital contributions when due, or otherwise fail to meet their obligations, which could require us to fund the shortfall or forego our equity in the joint venture; and
•the activities of a joint venture could adversely affect our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT.
As of December 31, 2023, we indirectly own a 74.1% interest in Trilogy, a consolidated joint venture representing approximately 43.6% of our portfolio (based on aggregate contract purchase price) and contributing approximately 51.0% of our annualized base rent / annualized NOI as of such date. Approximately 23.4% of Trilogy is indirectly owned by NHI, with the remaining 2.5% primarily owned by affiliates of the Trilogy Manager, an eligible independent contractor, or EIK, that manages the day-to-day operations of the joint venture. In addition to relying on the Trilogy Manager to manage the joint venture effectively, our investment in Trilogy exposes us to many of the risks described above with respect to joint venture investments generally. For example, other parties with interests in Trilogy have certain rights that could affect our investment in Trilogy. There are certain decisions that are deemed “major decisions” with respect to Trilogy’s business (such as terminating the management agreement with the Trilogy Manager, taking certain actions under the management agreement, making certain sales of the Trilogy properties, and taking certain other actions with respect to the Trilogy portfolio) that require the approval of NorthStar. It is possible that NorthStar will have interests that differ from ours, and our ability to pursue our interests may be limited by their rights under the joint venture arrangements. Additionally, if we seek to transfer our indirect ownership interests in Trilogy, we are required to first offer such interests to NorthStar, which could delay our ability to sell such interests or adversely affect the price we receive in connection with a sale. In addition, in certain circumstances, we and NorthStar have the right to force the sale of all of Trilogy’s assets, provided that, if this right is triggered by a party, the non-triggering party has a right to elect to purchase the Trilogy assets. This could cause us to increase our investment in Trilogy or result in the sale of Trilogy at a time when we would not to choose to effect a sale.
We have the option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings. Many factors, such as the historical and projected performance of the assets held by Trilogy REIT Holdings, our expectations for the future performance of the assets held by Trilogy REIT Holdings, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and our access to attractive capital, among other factors, will influence whether or not we elect to exercise this option, the consideration mix we would select in connection with any such exercise and how we would finance the cash portion of the purchase price for any such exercise. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to when, or if, we will exercise this option, or, if we do exercise this option, that we will consummate the purchase on the terms we expect or at all or that we will achieve the anticipated benefit from acquiring the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings.
We may structure our joint venture relationships in a manner which limits the amount we participate in the cash flows or appreciation of an investment.
We have entered, and may continue to enter, into joint venture agreements, the economic terms of which may provide for the distribution of income to us otherwise than in direct proportion to our ownership interest in the joint venture. For example, while we and another joint venture party may invest an equal amount of capital in an investment, the investment may be structured such that one joint venture partner has a right to priority distributions of cash flows up to a certain target return while another joint venture partner may receive a disproportionately greater share of cash flows once such target return has been achieved. This type of investment structure may result in our joint venture partner receiving more of the cash flows, including any from appreciation, of an investment than we receive. If we do not accurately judge the appreciation prospects of a particular investment or structure the venture appropriately, we may incur losses on joint venture investments or have limited participation in the profits of a joint venture investment, either of which could reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
If we serve as a managing member, general partner or controlling party with respect to investments or joint ventures, we may be subject to risks and liabilities that we would not otherwise face.
In certain circumstances, we may serve as managing member, general partner or controlling party with respect to investments and joint ventures. In such instances, we may face additional risks including, among others, the following:
•we may have increased duties to the other investors or partners in the investment or venture;
•in the event of certain events or conflicts, our partners may have recourse against us, including the right to monetary penalties, the ability to force a sale or exit the investment or venture;
•our partners may have the right to remove us as the general partner or managing member in certain cases involving cause; and
•our subsidiaries that would be the general partner or managing member of the investment or venture could be generally liable, under applicable law or the governing agreement of a venture, for the debts and obligations of the investment or venture, subject to certain exculpation and indemnification rights pursuant to the terms of the governing agreement.
Risks Related to Debt Financing
We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.
We have substantial indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially and adversely affect us.As of December 31, 2023, we had indebtedness of $2,551,036,000, which comprises $914,900,000 in unsecured debt under our 2022 Credit Agreement and $1,636,136,000 in secured mortgage loans payable and under the secured 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2023, we had $268,722,000 of total liquidity, comprised of $225,277,000 of undrawn capacity under our lines of credit and $43,445,000 of cash and cash equivalents. This represented approximately 5.7% of the combined fair market value of all of our properties and other real estate-related investments as of December 31, 2023.Though we anticipate that our overall leverage will approximate 50.0% of the combined fair market value of all of our properties and other real estate-related investments, as determined at the end of each calendar year, our organizational documents do not place a limitation on the amount of leverage that we may incur, and we could incur leverage substantially in excess of this amount.
We expect to fund a portion of our cash needs, including funding investment activity, with additional indebtedness. If we exercise our option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings, we may consummate the purchase transaction entirely in cash or in a combination of at least the Minimum Cash Consideration and newly issued shares of our convertible preferred stock as defined in Note 13, Equity — Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity — Membership Interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings, or Convertible Preferred Stock. If we elect to pay
for the purchase entirely in cash, the all cash purchase price would be $240,500,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, would increase to $247,000,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024 and would further increase to $260,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025. If, for example, we elect to pay for the purchase using only the Minimum Cash Consideration, we would pay for the remaining portion of the purchase price consideration by issuing to NorthStar 9,360,000 shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. In all cases, an amount of cash will be required, and we may source our cash need from the proceeds of issuances of additional debt and equity (including preferred stock other than our Convertible Preferred Stock) and/or a hybrid of debt and equity.
Also, if we exercise our option and elect to issue shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock, we would not be permitted to pay cash dividends on junior securities (such as our common stock) unless we were then current on all accumulated dividends owed on our Convertible Preferred Stock for past quarterly dividend periods. This means that we may have additional cash needs so long as our Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding. We may also have cash needs in order to satisfy the redemption option that a holder of shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock may exercise after a fundamental change transaction (such as a change-in-control transaction involving us), which exercise would require us to repurchase that holder’s shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock or to exercise our option to redeem our Convertible Preferred Stock if financially advantageous to do so. As such, the credit rating agencies and our investors may view our Convertible Preferred Stock as effectively similar to debt or “mezzanine” financing. Our ability to access additional debt capital and the cost of other terms thereof will be significantly influenced by our creditworthiness and any rating assigned by a rating agency, as well as by general economic and market conditions. Significant secured and unsecured indebtedness adversely affects our creditworthiness and could prevent us fromachieving an investment grade credit rating or cause a rating agency to lower a rating or to place a rating on a “watchlist” for possible downgrade. Deteriorations in our creditworthiness or in any ratings that we may achieve, or the perception that any such deterioration may occur, would adversely affect our ability to access additional debt capital and increase the cost of any debt capital that is available to us and may require us to accept restrictive covenants. A reduction in our access to debt capital, an increase in the cost thereof or our acceptance of restrictive covenants could limit our ability to achieve our business objectives and pursue our growth strategies.
Additionally, interest rates have significantly increased, and may continue to significantly increase, our interest costs. Expensive debt could reduce or limit our available cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and development projects, reduce cash available for distributions to stockholders, hinder our ability to meet certain debt service ratios under our credit agreements or impose restrictions on our ability to incur additional debt for so long as certain debt service ratios are not met.
We may also incur mortgage debt and other property-level debt on properties that we already own in order to obtain funds to acquire additional properties or make other capital investments. In addition, we may borrow as necessary or advisable to ensure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including borrowings to satisfy the REIT requirement that we distribute at least 90.0% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain any such borrowings on favorable terms or at all.
If we mortgage a property and there is a shortfall between the cash flows from that property and the cash flows needed to service mortgage debt on that property, our financial results would be negatively affected, and the amount of cash available for distributions to stockholders would be reduced. In addition, incurring mortgage debt increases the risk of loss of a property since defaults on indebtedness secured by a property may result in lenders initiating foreclosure actions. If any mortgages contain cross-collateralization or cross-default provisions, a default on a single property could affect multiple properties. In addition, lenders may have recourse to assets other than those specifically securing the repayment of indebtedness. For tax purposes, a foreclosure on any of our properties will be treated as a disposition of the property, which could cause us to recognize taxable income on foreclosure, without receiving corresponding cash proceeds. We may give full or partial guarantees to lenders of mortgage debt on behalf of the entities that own our properties. When we give a guaranty on behalf of an entity that owns one of our properties, we will be responsible to the lender for satisfaction of the debt if it is not paid by such entity.
A significant amount of debt subjects us to many risks that, if realized, would materially and adversely affect us, including the risk that:
•our cash flow from operating activities could become insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest on our debt, which would likely result in (i) acceleration of the debt (and any other debt containing a cross-default or cross-acceleration provision), increasing the likelihood of further distress if refinancing is not available on favorable terms or at all, (ii) our inability to borrow undrawn amounts under other existing financing arrangements, even if we have timely made all required payments under such arrangements, further compromising our liquidity and/or (iii) the loss of some or all of our assets that are pledged as collateral in connection with our financing arrangements;
•our debt may increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions with no assurance that such debt will increase our investment returns in an amount sufficient to offset the associated risks relating to leverage;
•we may be required to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operating activities to payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for operations, future business opportunities, stockholder distributions and/or other purposes; and
•to the extent the maturity of certain debt occurs prior to the maturity of a related asset pledged or transferred as collateral for such debt, we may not be able to refinance that debt on favorable terms or at all, which may reduce available liquidity and/or cause significant losses to us.
To the extent we borrow funds at floating interest rates, we will be adversely affected by rising interest rates unless fully hedged. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt.
Interest we pay on our debt obligations reduces our financial results and cash available for distributions to our stockholders. Whenever we incur variable-rate debt, increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense unless fully hedged. During 2023, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge $750,000,000 of our variable-rate credit facilities. As of December 31, 2023, our outstanding debt aggregated $2,551,036,000, of which 31.8% was unhedged variable-rate debt. Rising interest rates will also increase our interest expense on future fixed-rate debt.If we need to repay existing debt during periods of rising interest rates, which has been the case in recent years , we could be required to sell one or more of our properties at times which may not permit realization of the maximum return on such investments, which could result in losses.
To the extent we borrow at fixed rates or enter into fixed interest rate swaps, we will not benefit from reduced interest expense if interest rates decrease.
We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of borrowings we have used to maintain liquidity and fund expansion and refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. To limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs while taking into account variable interest rate risk, we have borrowed, and may continue to borrow, at fixed rates or variable rates depending upon prevailing market conditions. We have and may also continue to enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. Therefore, to the extent we borrow at fixed rates or enter into fixed interest rate swaps, we will not benefit from reduced interest expense if interest rates decrease in the future below our borrowing rates.
Hedging activity may expose us to risks.
We have used, and may continue to use, derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in exchange rates and interest rates. If we use derivative financial instruments to hedge against exchange rate or interest rate fluctuations, we will be exposed to credit risk and legal enforceability risks. In this context, credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us. Legal enforceability risks encompass general contractual risks, including the risk that the counterparty will breach the terms of, or fail to perform its obligations under, the derivative contract. These derivative instruments are speculative in nature and there is no guarantee that they will be effective. If we are unable to manage these risks effectively, we could be materially and adversely affected.
Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants that could adversely affect our business.
When providing financing, a lender may impose restrictions on us that affect our ability to incur additional debt, make distributions to our stockholders and operate our business. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, loan documents that contain covenants that limit our ability to further mortgage the property or discontinue insurance coverage. These or other limitations may adversely affect our flexibility and our ability to achieve our business objectives.
Interest-only indebtedness may increase our risk of default, adversely affect our ability to refinance or sell properties and ultimately may reduce our funds available for distribution to our stockholders.
We may finance or refinance our properties using interest-only mortgage indebtedness. During the interest-only period, the amount of each scheduled payment will be less than that of a traditional amortizing mortgage loan. The principal balance of the mortgage loan will not be reduced (except in the case of prepayments) because there are no scheduled monthly payments of principal during this period. After the interest-only period, we will be required either to make scheduled payments of amortized principal and interest or to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. At the time such a balloon payment is due, we may or may not be able to refinance the balloon payment on terms as favorable as the original loan or sell the particular property at a price sufficient to make the balloon payment. Furthermore, these required principal or balloon payments will
increase the amount of our scheduled payments and may increase our risk of default under the related mortgage loan. If the mortgage loan has an adjustable interest rate, the amount of our scheduled payments would likely increase at a time of rising interest rates, depending upon the adjustment terms. In addition, payments of principal and interest made to service our debt, including balloon payments, may leave us with insufficient cash to pay the distributions to our stockholders, including those that we are required to pay to maintain our qualification as a REIT. Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on us.
Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Organization
Our charter imposes a limit on the percentage of shares of our common stock or capital stock that any person may own, and such limit may discourage a takeover or business combination that may have benefited our stockholders.
Our charter restricts the direct or indirect ownership by one person or entity to no more than 9.9% of the value of shares of our then outstanding capital stock (which includes common stock and any preferred stock we may issue) and no more than 9.9% of the value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of our then outstanding common stock. This restriction may discourage a change of control of us and may deter individuals or entities from making tender offers for shares of our stock on terms that might be financially attractive to our stockholders or which may cause a change in our management. This ownership restriction may also prohibit business combinations that would have otherwise been approved by our board and our stockholders. In addition to deterring potential transactions that may be favorable to our stockholders, these provisions may also decrease our stockholders’ ability to sell their shares of our common stock.
Our stockholders’ ability to control our operations is severely limited.
Our board determines our major strategies, including our strategies regarding investments, financing, growth, capitalization, REIT qualification and distributions. Our board may amend or revise these and other strategies without a vote of the stockholders. Under our charter and Maryland law, our stockholders have a right to vote only on the following matters:
•the election or removal of directors;
•the amendment of our charter, except that our board may amend our charter without stockholder approval to change our name or the name of other designation or the par value of any class or series of our stock and the aggregate par value of our stock, increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have the authority to issue, or effect certain reverse stock splits;
•our dissolution; and
•certain mergers, consolidations, conversions, statutory share exchanges and sales or other dispositions of all or substantially all of our assets.
All other matters are subject to the sole discretion of our board.
Conflicts of interest could arise as a result of our officers’ other positions and/or interests outside of our company.
We rely on our management for implementation of our policies and our day-to-day operations. Although a majority of their business time is spent working for our company, they may engage in other investment and business activities in which we have no economic interest. Their responsibilities to these other entities could result in action or inaction that is detrimental to our business, which could harm the implementation of our growth strategies and achievement of our business strategies. They may face conflicts of interest in allocating time among us and their other business ventures and in meeting obligations to us and those other entities.
Certain provisions of Maryland law may make it more difficult for us to be acquired and may limit or delay our stockholders’ ability to dispose of their shares of our common stock.
Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, or MGCL, such as the business combination statute and the control share acquisition statute, are designed to prevent, or have the effect of preventing, someone from acquiring control of us. The MGCL prohibits “business combinations” between a Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder or an affiliate of an interested stockholder. An “interested stockholder” is defined generally as:
•any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10.0% or more of the voting power of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock; or
•an affiliate or associate of the corporation who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was an interested stockholder.
These prohibitions last for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder. Thereafter, any business combination with the interested stockholder or an affiliate of the interested stockholder must be recommended by the corporation’s board and approved by the affirmative vote of at least 80.0% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation and two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting stock of the corporation other than shares held by the interested stockholder. These requirements could have the effect of inhibiting a change in control even if a change in control were in the best interests of our stockholders.
The control share acquisition statute of the MGCL provides that, subject to certain exceptions, holders of “control shares” of a Maryland corporation (defined as voting shares of stock that, if aggregated with all other such shares of stock owned by the acquiror or in respect of which the acquiror can exercise or direct voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquiror to exercise voting power in electing directors within specified ranges of voting power) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the acquisition of issued and outstanding control shares) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Shares of stock owned by the acquiror, by our officers or by our employees who are also our directors are excluded from shares entitled to vote on the matter.
Pursuant to the MGCL, our bylaws contain a provision exempting from the control share acquisition provisions of the MGCL any and all acquisitions by any person of shares of our stock, which eliminates voting rights for certain levels of shares that could exercise control over us, and our board has adopted a resolution providing that any business combination between us and any other person is exempted from the business combination statute, provided that such business combination is first approved by our board. However, if the bylaws provision exempting us from the control share acquisition statute or our board resolution opting out of the business combination statute were repealed in whole or in part at any time, these provisions of the MGCL could delay or prevent offers to acquire us and increase the difficulty of consummating any such offers, even if such a transaction would be in the best interests of our stockholders.
The MGCL and our organizational documents limit our stockholders’ right to bring claims against our officers and directors.
The MGCL provides that a director has no liability in such capacity if he or she performs his or her duties in good faith, in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in the corporation’s best interests and with the care that an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Our charter requires us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and advance expenses to our directors and officers and our subsidiaries’ directors and officers. Additionally, our charter limits, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, the liability of our directors and officers to us and our stockholders for monetary damages. Moreover, we have entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers and intend to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our future directors and executive officers. Although our charter does not limit the liability of our directors and officers or allow us to indemnify our directors and officers to a greater extent than permitted under Maryland law, we and our stockholders may have more limited rights against our directors and officers than might otherwise exist under common law, which could reduce our stockholders’ and our recovery against them. In addition, we may be obligated to fund the defense costs incurred by our directors and officers in some cases, which would decrease the cash otherwise available for distribution to our stockholders.
Our structure may result in potential conflicts of interest with limited partners in our operating partnership whose interests may not be aligned with those of our stockholders.
Our directors and officers have duties to us and our stockholders under Maryland law and our charter in connection with their management of us. At the same time, the general partner of our operating partnership, of which we are the sole owner, has fiduciary duties under Delaware law to our operating partnership and to the limited partners in connection with the management of our operating partnership. The duties of the general partner to our operating partnership and its partners may come into conflict with the duties of our directors and officers to us and our stockholders. Under Delaware law, a general partner of a Delaware limited partnership owes its limited partners the duties of good faith and fair dealing. Other duties, including fiduciary duties, may be modified or eliminated in the partnership agreement. If there is a conflict in the fiduciary duties owed by us (as the sole member of the general partner) to our stockholders on one hand and by the general partner to any limited partners on the other, we shall be entitled to resolve such conflict in favor of our stockholders.
Additionally, the partnership agreement expressly limits our liability by providing that we and our officers, directors, stockholders, trustees, representatives, agents and employees will not be liable or accountable to our operating partnership for (i) any act or omission performed or failed to be performed, or for any losses, claims, costs, damages, or liabilities arising from any such act or omission, (ii) any tax liability imposed on our operating partnership or (iii) any losses due to the misconduct, negligence (gross or ordinary), dishonesty or bad faith of any agents of our operating partnership, if we or any such person acted consistent with the obligation of good faith and fair dealing and with applicable duties of care and loyalty. In addition, our operating partnership is required to indemnify us and our officers, directors, employees and designees to the extent permitted by
applicable law from and against any and all claims arising from operations of our operating partnership, unless it is established that: (i) the act or omission was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) the indemnified party received an improper personal benefit, in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the indemnified person had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The provisions of Delaware law that allow the fiduciary duties of a general partner to be modified by a partnership agreement have not been tested in a court of law, and we have not obtained an opinion of counsel covering the provisions set forth in the partnership agreement that purport to waive or restrict our fiduciary duties.
Risks Related to Taxes and Our REIT Status
Failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes would subject us to U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income at the regular corporate rate, which would substantially increase our income tax expenses and reduce our distributions to our stockholders.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2016. We believe that we have been, and, through the time of the REIT Merger, GAHR III was, organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. To continue to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we, and our subsidiary REIT, Trilogy Real Estate Investment Trust, or Trilogy REIT, must meet various requirements set forth in the Code concerning, among other things, the ownership of our, or Trilogy REIT’s, outstanding common stock, the nature of our, or Trilogy REIT’s, assets, the sources of our, or Trilogy REIT’s, income, and the amount of our, or Trilogy REIT’s, distributions to stockholders. In addition, if it is determined that GAHR III lost, in any year prior to the REIT Merger, its qualification as a REIT without being entitled to any relief under the statutory provisions to preserve REIT status, we, as a “successor” to GAHR III under the REIT rules, will not be able to qualify as a REIT to the extent we are unable to avail ourselves of any relief under the statutory provisions to preserve REIT status. The REIT qualification requirements are extremely complex, and interpretations of the U.S. federal income tax laws governing qualification as a REIT are limited. In addition, the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we, or Trilogy REIT, will be successful in operating in compliance with the REIT rules in such manner as to allow us to maintain our qualification as a REIT. At any time, new laws, interpretations or court decisions may change the U.S. federal tax laws relating to, or the U.S. federal income tax consequences of, qualification as a REIT. It is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause our board to determine that it is not in our best interests to maintain our qualification as a REIT, and to revoke our REIT election, which it may do without stockholder approval.
If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income at the corporate rate and could also be subject to increased state and local taxes. In addition, we would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year of losing our REIT status unless the Internal Revenue Services, or IRS, grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Losing our REIT status would reduce our net earnings available for investment and amounts available for distribution to our stockholders because of the additional tax liability. In addition, distributions would no longer qualify for the distributions paid deduction, and we would no longer be required to make distributions to our stockholders. If this occurs, we might be required to raise debt or equity capital or sell some investments in order to pay the applicable tax.
As a result of all these factors, our failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT could impair our ability to expand our business and raise capital, could materially and adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and would substantially reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
TRSs are subject to corporate-level taxes and ourdealings with TRSs may be subject to a 100% excise tax.
A REIT may own up to 100% of the stock of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs. Both the subsidiary and the REIT must jointly elect to treat the subsidiary as a TRS. A corporation of which a TRS directly or indirectly owns more than 35.0% of the voting power or value of the stock will automatically be treated as a TRS. Overall, no more than 20.0% (25.0% for taxable years beginning prior to January 1, 2018) of the gross value of a REIT’s assets may consist of stock or securities of one or more TRSs. A TRS may hold assets and earn income that would not be qualifying assets or income if held or earned directly by a REIT, including gross income from operations pursuant to management contracts. We lease our properties that are “qualified health care properties” to one or more TRSs which, in turn, contract with independent third-party management companies to operate those “qualified health care properties” on behalf of those TRSs. In addition, we may use one or more TRSs generally to hold properties for sale in the ordinary course of a trade or business or to hold assets or conduct activities that we cannot conduct directly as a REIT. A TRS is subject to applicable U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax on its taxable income, as well as limitations on the deductibility of its interest expenses. In addition, the Code imposes a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between a TRS and its parent REIT that are not conducted on an arm’s-length basis.
If our “qualified health care properties” are not properly leased to a TRS or the operators of those “qualified health care properties” do not qualify as EIKs, we could fail to qualify as a REIT.
To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy two gross income tests, under which specified percentages of our gross income must be derived from certain sources, such as “rents from real property.” Rent paid by TRSs pursuant to the lease of our “qualified health care properties” will constitute a substantial portion of our gross income. For that rent to qualify as “rents from real property” for purposes of the REIT gross income tests, the leases must be respected as true leases for U.S. federal income tax purposes and not be treated as service contracts, joint ventures or some other type of arrangement. If our leases are not respected as true leases for U. S. federal income tax purposes, we may fail to qualify as a REIT.
In general, under the REIT rules, we cannot directly operate any properties that are “qualified health care properties” and can only indirectly participate in the operation of “qualified health care properties” on an after-tax basis by leasing those properties to independent health care facility operators or to TRSs. A “qualified health care property” is any real property (and any personal property incident to that real property) which is, or is necessary or incidental to the use of, a hospital, nursing facility, assisted living facility, congregate care facility, qualified continuing care facility or other licensed facility which extends medical or nursing or ancillary services to patients and is operated by a provider of those services that is eligible for participation in the Medicare program with respect to that facility. Furthermore, rent paid by a lessee of a “qualified health care property” that is a “related party tenant” of ours will not be qualifying income for purposes of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs. However, a TRS that leases “qualified health care properties” from us will not be treated as a “related party tenant” with respect to our “qualified health care properties” that are managed by an EIK. If we incorrectly classified a property as a “qualified health care property” and leased it to a TRS, any rental income therefrom would likely not be qualifying income for purposes of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs.
An EIK is an independent contractor that, at the time such contractor enters into a management or other agreement with a TRS to operate a “qualified health care property,” is actively engaged in the trade or business of operating “qualified health care properties” for any person not related to us or the TRS. Among other requirements to qualify as an independent contractor, an operator must not own, directly or indirectly (or applying attribution provisions of the Code), more than 35.0% of the shares of our outstanding stock (by value), and no person or group of persons can own more than 35.0% of the shares of our outstanding stock and 35.0% of the ownership interests of the operator (taking into account only owners of more than 5.0% of our shares and, with respect to ownership interest in such operators that are publicly traded, only holders of more than 5.0% of such ownership interests). The ownership attribution rules that apply for purposes of the 35.0% thresholds are complex. There can be no assurance that the amount of our shares beneficially owned by our operators and their owners will not exceed the above thresholds. If a healthcare facility operator at one of our properties that uses the RIDEA structure was determined to not be an EIK, any rental income we receive from the TRS with respect to such property would likely not be qualifying income for purposes of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs.
We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes that could increase our tax liability or reduce ouroperating flexibility.
In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial and administrative changes have been made in the provisions of U.S. federal and state income tax laws applicable to investments similar to an investment in shares of our common stock. Additional changes to the tax laws are likely to continue to occur, and we cannot assure our stockholders that any such changes will not adversely affect our taxation and our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT or the taxation of a stockholder. Any such changes could have a material adverse effect on an investment in shares of our common stock or on the market price thereof or the resale potential of our assets. Our stockholders are urged to consult with their tax advisor with respect to the impact of recent legislation on their investment in our stock and the status of legislative, regulatory or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in shares of our common stock.
Although REITs generally receive better tax treatment than entities taxed as regular corporations, it is possible that future legislation would result in a REIT having fewer tax advantages, and it could become more advantageous for a company that invests in real estate to elect to be treated for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes as a regular corporation. As a result, our charter provides our board with the power, under certain circumstances, to revoke or otherwise terminate our REIT election and cause us to be taxed as a regular corporation, without the vote of our stockholders. Our board has fiduciary duties to us and our stockholders and could only cause such changes in our tax treatment if it determines in good faith that such changes are in the best interests of our stockholders.
In certain circumstances, we may be subject to U.S. federal, state and foreign income taxes even if we maintain our qualification as a REIT, which would reduce our cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Even if we maintain our qualification as a REIT, we may be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, state income taxes or foreign income taxes. For example, net income from a “prohibited transaction” will be subject to a 100% tax. We may not be able to make sufficient distributions to avoid excise taxes applicable to REITs. We may also decide to retain capital gains we earn from the sale or other disposition of our property and pay income tax directly on such income. In that event, our
stockholders would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, our stockholders that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have no benefit from their deemed payment of such tax liability. We may also be subject to state and local taxes or foreign taxes on our income or property, either directly or at the level of the companies through which we indirectly own our assets. Any U.S. federal, state or foreign taxes we pay will reduce our cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Dividends payable by REITs generally do not qualify for the reduced tax rates on dividend income as compared to regular corporations, which could adversely affect the value of our shares.
The maximum U.S. federal income tax rate for certain qualified dividends payable to domestic stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates generally is 20.0%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, are generally not eligible for these reduced rates for qualified dividends except to the extent the REIT dividends are attributable to “qualified dividends” received by the REIT itself. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, U.S. individuals, trusts and estates are permitted a deduction for certain pass-through business income, including “qualified REIT dividends” (generally, dividends received by a REIT stockholder that are not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income), allowing them to deduct up to 20.0% of such amounts, subject to certain limitations. Although the reduced U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to dividend income from regular corporate dividends does not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends paid by REITs, the more favorable rates applicable to qualified dividends from C corporations could cause investors who are individuals, trusts and estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay qualified dividends, which could adversely affect the market price of the shares of common stock of REITs, including our shares of common stock.
Dividends on, and gains recognized on the sale of, shares by a tax-exempt stockholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income.
If (i) we are a “pension-held REIT,” (ii) a tax-exempt stockholder has incurred (or is deemed to have incurred) debt to purchase or hold our shares or (iii) a holder of our shares is a certain type of tax-exempt stockholder, dividends on, and gains recognized on the sale of, shares by such tax-exempt stockholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income under the Code.
Characterization of our sale-leaseback transactions may be challenged, which could jeopardize our REIT status or require us to make an unexpected distribution.
We have participated, and may continue to participate, in sale-leaseback transactions in which we purchase real estate investments and lease them back to the sellers of such properties. We believe we have structured and intend to structure any of our sale-leaseback transactions such that the lease will be characterized as a “true lease” and so that we will be treated as the owner of the property for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, we cannot assure our stockholders that the IRS will not take the position that specific sale-leaseback transactions that we treated as leases be re-characterized as financing arrangements or loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event that any such sale-leaseback transaction is re-characterized as a financing transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, deductions for depreciation and cost recovery relating to such real estate investment would be disallowed or significantly reduced. If a sale-leaseback transaction is so re-characterized, we might fail to satisfy the REIT asset tests, income tests or distribution requirements and, consequently, lose our REIT status or be required to elect to distribute an additional distribution of the increased taxable income to avoid the loss of REIT status. This distribution would be paid to all stockholders at the time of declaration rather than the stockholders existing in the taxable year affected by the re-characterization.
Complying with the REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.
To maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, the nature and diversification of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders and the ownership of shares of our common stock. We may be required to make distributions to our stockholders at disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution, or we may be required to raise debt or equity capital or forego otherwise attractive investments in order to comply with the REIT tests. We may need to borrow funds to meet the REIT distribution requirements even if market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will have access to such capital on favorable terms at the desired times, or at all. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements could materially and adversely affect us and may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing our financial results.
If the operating partnership fails to maintain its status as a partnership and were to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its income may be subject to taxation, which would reduce the cash available for distribution to stockholders and likely result in a loss of our REIT status.
We intend to maintain the status of our operating partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, if the IRS were to successfully challenge the status of our operating partnership as a partnership for such purposes, it would be taxable as a corporation. In such event, this would reduce the amount of distributions that our operating partnership could make to us. This would also likely result in us losing REIT status, and, if so, becoming subject to a corporate level tax on our own income. This would substantially reduce any cash available to pay distributions. In addition, if any of the partnerships or limited liability companies through which our operating partnership owns its properties, in whole or in part, loses its characterization as a partnership and is otherwise not disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such partnership or limited liability company would be subject to taxation as a corporation, thereby reducing distributions to our operating partnership. Such a recharacterization of an underlying partnership or limited liability company could also threaten our ability to maintain our status as a REIT.
Foreign purchasers of shares of our common stock may be subject to FIRPTA tax upon the sale of their shares of our common stock or upon the payment of a capital gains dividend.
A foreign person disposing of a U.S. real property interest, including shares of stock of a U.S. corporation whose assets consist principally of U.S. real property interests, is generally subject to withholding pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980, as amended, or FIRPTA, on the amount received from the disposition. However, foreign pension plans and certain foreign publicly traded entities are exempt from FIRPTA withholding. Further, such FIRPTA tax does not apply to the disposition of stock in a REIT if the REIT is “domestically controlled.” A REIT is “domestically controlled” if less than 50.0% of the REIT’s stock, by value, has been owned directly or indirectly by persons who are not qualifying U.S. persons during a continuous five-year period ending on the date of disposition or, if shorter, during the entire period of the REIT’s existence. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will qualify as a “domestically controlled” REIT. If we were to fail to so qualify, amounts received by foreign investors on a sale of shares of our common stock would be subject to FIRPTA tax, unless the shares of our common stock are regularly traded on an established securities market and the foreign investor did not at any time during a specified period directly or indirectly own more than 10.0% of the value of our outstanding common stock. Additionally, a foreign stockholder will likely be subject to FIRPTA upon the payment of any distribution by us that is attributable to gain from sales or exchanges of U.S. real property interests, unless the shares of our common stock are regularly traded on a U.S. established securities market and the foreign investor did not own at any time during the 1-year period ending on the date of such distribution more than 10.0% of such class of common stock.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
An active trading market for our common stock may not be maintained.
Our common stock only recently began trading on the NYSE, and we cannot assure our stockholders that an active trading market will be sustained. Whether an active public market for shares of our common stock will be maintained depends on a number of actors, including the extent of institutional investor interest in us, the general reputation of REITs and the attractiveness of their equity securities in comparison to other equity securities (including securities issued by other real estate-based companies), our financial performance and general stock and bond market conditions. If an active trading market for shares of our common stock does not develop or is maintained, our stockholders may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock, which could adversely affect the price that our stockholders receive for such shares.
The market price and trading volume of shares of our common stock may be volatile.
The U.S. stock markets, including the NYSE, on which our common stock recently began trading, have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. As a result, the market price of shares of our common stock is likely to be similarly volatile, and investors in shares of our common stock may experience a decrease in the value of their shares, including decreases unrelated to our operating performance or prospects. We cannot assure our stockholders that the market price of shares of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future.
In addition to the risks listed in this “Risk Factors” section, a number of factors could negatively affect the share price of our common stock or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of shares of our common stock, including:
•the annual yield from distributions on shares of our common stock as compared to yields on other financial instruments;
•equity issuances by us, or future sales of substantial amounts of shares of our common stock by our existing or future stockholders or the perception that such issuances or future sales may occur;
•increases in market interest rates or a decrease in our distributions to stockholders that lead purchasers of shares of our common stock to demand a higher yield;
•changes in market valuations of similar companies;
•fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes;
•additions or departures of key management personnel;
•our operating performance and the performance of other similar companies;
•actual or anticipated differences in our quarterly operating results;
•changes in expectations of future financial performance or changes in estimates of securities analysts;
•publication of research reports about us or our industry by securities analysts;
•failure to qualify as a REIT;
•adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we incur in the future;
•strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, divestments, spin offs, joint ventures, strategic investments or changes in business strategy;
•the passage of legislation or other regulatory developments that adversely affect us or our industry;
•speculation in the press or investment community;
•changes in our earnings;
•failure to satisfy the listing requirements of NYSE;
•failure to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
•actions by institutional stockholders;
•changes in accounting principles; and
•general market conditions, including factors unrelated to our performance.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the price of their common stock. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, our ability to execute our business strategy and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
Because we have a large number of stockholders and shares of our common stock have not been listed on a national securities exchange until recently, there may be significant pent-up demand to sell shares of our common stock (including our Class T common stock and Class I common stock). Significant sales of shares of our common stock, or the perception that significant sales of such shares could occur, may cause the price of shares of our common stock to decline significantly.
As of March 15, 2024, we had (i) an aggregate of 131,597,967 shares of our common stock, Class T common stock and Class I common stock issued and outstanding, (ii) 972,222 shares of unvested restricted common stock issued and outstanding, (iii) 145,993 shares of unvested restricted Class T common stock issued and outstanding, (iv) 156,604 shares of Class T common stock underlying unvested time-based restricted stock units, or RSUs, (v) 141,503 shares of Class T common stock underlying unvested performance-based RSUs (such number of shares assumes that we issue shares of our common stock underlying such unvested performance-based awards at maximum levels for performance and market conditions that have not yet been achieved; to the extent that performance or market conditions do not meet maximum levels, the actual number of shares of our common stock issued under our incentive plan would be less than the amount reflected above) and (vi) 3,501,976 shares of our common stock that may be issued for redeeming OP units. In addition, we have the right to issue an additional 2,434,654 shares of our common stock under our incentive plan. Prior to our recent offering, our common stock, Class T common stock and Class I common stock were not listed on any national securities exchange, and the ability of a stockholder to sell his, her or its shares was limited. Although shares of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock were not listed on a national securities exchange at the same time as our common stock, these shares are not subject to transfer restrictions (other than the restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock set forth in our charter); therefore, such stock will be freely tradable, to extent that a market exists for such stock. As a result, it is possible that a market may develop for shares of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock, and sales of such shares, or the perception that such sales could occur, could have a material adverse effect on the per share trading price of shares of our common stock.
Our Class T common stock and Class I common stock will automatically convert into our listed common stock on August 5, 2024. As a result, there may be significant pent-up demand to sell shares of our common stock. Holders of shares of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock seeking to immediately sell his, her or its shares of our common stock could engage in immediate short sales of shares of our common stock prior to the date on which the shares of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock convert into shares of our common stock and use the shares of our common stock that they receive upon conversion of their Class T common stock and Class I common stock to cover these short sales in the future.
Additionally, if we exercise our option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings, we may consummate the purchase transaction entirely in cash or in a combination of cash and newly issued shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. If we issue shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock as part of the purchase price consideration, a holder thereof, on or after July 1, 2026, may elect to convert those shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock. This conversion right may result in our issuing a substantial number of new shares of our common stock. We may also issue shares of our common stock or other equity or hybrid equity securities to fund our cash needs for any exercise of our option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings. Our issuance of common stock upon a holder’s conversion of shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock, or our issuance of our Convertible Preferred Stock itself and/or the issuance of common stock or other equity or hybrid equity securities to fund the cash needs for any exercise of the option, or the mere perception that we may issue such securities, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
A large volume of sales of shares of our common stock could decrease the market price of shares of our common stock significantly and could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of equity or hybrid securities in the future. Even if a substantial number of sales of shares of our common stock are not effected, the mere perception of the possibility of these sales could decrease the market price of shares of our common stock significantly and have a negative effect on our ability to raise capital in the future.
Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our common stock, or equity securities, which would dilute our existing stockholders and may be senior to our common stock, may adversely affect our stockholders.
We may in the future attempt to increase our capital resources by offering debt or equity securities, including notes and classes of preferred or common stock. Debt securities or shares of preferred stock will generally be entitled to receive interest payments or distributions, both current and in connection with any liquidation or sale, prior to the holders of our common stock. We are not required to offer any such additional debt or preferred stock to existing common stockholders on a preemptive basis. Therefore, issuances of common stock or other equity securities will generally dilute the holdings of our existing stockholders. Because we may generally issue any such debt or preferred stock in the future without obtaining the approval of our stockholders, our stockholders will bear the risk of our future issuances reducing the market price of our common stock and diluting their proportionate ownership. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the form, amount, timing or nature of our future issuances.
If we exercise our option to purchase the remaining 24.0% minority membership interest held by our joint venture partner in Trilogy REIT Holdings, we may consummate the purchase transaction entirely in cash or in a combination of at least the Minimum Cash Consideration and newly issued shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. If we elect to pay for the purchase entirely in cash, the all cash purchase price would be $240,500,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, would increase to $247,000,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024 and would further increase to $260,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025. If, for example, we elect to pay for the purchase using only the Minimum Cash Consideration, we would pay for the remaining portion of the purchase price consideration by issuing NorthStar 9,360,000 shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. We may finance all or any portion of the cash purchase price associated with any exercise of this purchase option with new debt, and, in such case, principal and interest payments on such debt would be senior to the rights of holders of our common stock. Similarly, if we elect to issue shares of our new Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with our exercise of this purchase option, holders of such shares will be entitled to receive dividends as well as liquidation payments prior to holders of our common stock. Specifically, unless we are current on all accumulated dividends owed on shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock for past quarterly dividend periods, we may not pay any dividends on, or repurchase, any shares of our common stock or other junior securities, subject in each case only to limited exceptions. Additionally, we may be required to issue a significant number of shares of our common stock in connection with any future conversion of such Convertible Preferred Stock, and we may issue common stock or other equity or hybrid equity securities to fund all or a portion of the cash purchase price for our option exercise. In both cases, this would result in dilution of our stockholders’ equity investment in us.
In addition, subject to any limitations set forth under Maryland law, our board may amend our charter to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of stock, the number of shares of any class or series of stock designated or reclassify any unissued shares into other classes or series of stock without the necessity of obtaining stockholder approval. All such shares may be issued in the sole discretion of our board. In addition, we have granted, and expect to grant in the future, equity awards under our incentive plan to our independent directors and certain of our employees, including our executive officers, which to date have consisted of our restricted stock and RSUs, which are exchangeable into shares of our common stock subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. Finally, we have OP units outstanding which are redeemable for cash or, at our election, exchangeable into shares of our common stock.
Therefore, existing stockholders will experience dilution of their equity investment in us as we (i) sell additional shares of our common stock in the future, (ii) sell securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock, including OP units, (iii) issue restricted shares of our common stock, RSUs or other equity-based securities under our incentive plan or (iv) issue shares of our common stock in a merger or to sellers of properties acquired by us in connection with an exchange of OP units.
Because the OP units may, at our election, be exchanged for shares of our common stock, any merger, exchange or conversion between the operating partnership and another entity ultimately could result in the issuance of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, thereby diluting the percentage ownership interest of other stockholders. Because of these and other reasons, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution in their equity investment in us.
We may be unable to raise additional capital on favorable terms, or at all, needed to grow our business.
We may not be able to increase our capital resources by engaging in additional debt or equity financings. Even if we complete such financings, they may not be on favorable terms. These circumstances could materially and adversely affect our financial results and impair our ability to achieve our business objectives. Additionally, we may be required to accept terms that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness or take other actions (including terms that require us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios) that would otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.
If we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flows from operations, we may not be able to sustain our distribution rate, we may have fewer funds available for investment in real estate and other assets and our stockholders’ overall returns may be reduced.
Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from any source without limit (other than those limits set forth under Maryland law). To the extent we fund distributions from borrowings, we will have fewer funds available for investment in real estate and other real estate-related assets, and our stockholders’ overall returns may be reduced. At times, we may need to borrow funds to pay distributions, which could increase the costs to operate our business. Furthermore, if we cannot cover our distributions with cash flows from operations, we may be unable to sustain our distribution rate.
Our distributions to stockholders may change, which could adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock.
All distributions will be at the sole discretion of our board and will depend on our actual and projected financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, maintenance of our REIT qualification and such other matters as our board may deem relevant from time to time. We intend to evaluate distributions throughout 2024, and it is possible that stockholders may not receive distributions equivalent to those previously paid by us for various reasons, including: (i) we may not have enough cash to pay such distributions due to changes in our cash requirements, indebtedness, capital spending plans, operating cash flows or financial position; (ii) decisions on whether, when and in what amounts to make any future distributions will remain at all times entirely at the discretion of the board, which reserves the right to change our distribution practices at any time and for any reason; (iii) our board may elect to retain cash for investment purposes, working capital reserves or other purposes, or to maintain or improve our credit ratings; and (iv) the amount of distributions that our Subsidiaries may distribute to us may be subject to restrictions imposed by state law, state regulators and/or the terms of any current or future indebtedness that these subsidiaries may incur.
Stockholders have no contractual or other legal right to distributions that have not been authorized by our board and declared by us. We may not be able to make distributions in the future or may need to fund such distributions from external sources, as to which no assurances can be given. In addition, as noted above, we may choose to retain operating cash flow, and those retained funds, although increasing the value of our underlying assets, may not correspondingly increase the market price of shares of our common stock. Our failure to meet the market's expectations with regard to future cash distributions likely would adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls, we may not be able to accurately and timely report our financial results.
Effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports, effectively prevent fraud and operate successfully as a public company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, it could have a material adverse effect on us. We are currently required to perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting, and we will be required to have our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the same, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. To date, the audit of our consolidated financial statements by our independent registered public accounting firm has included a consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis of designing their audit procedures, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion (as will be required pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. If a material weakness or significant deficiency was to be identified in the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we may also identify deficiencies in some of our disclosure controls and procedures that we believe require remediation. If we or our independent registered public accounting firm discover control issues, we will make efforts to improve our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful. Any failure to maintain effective controls or timely effect any necessary improvement of our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls could harm operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, which could affect the listing of our common stock on NYSE. Ineffective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. Any of these matters could cause a significant decline in the market price of our common stock.
Prior to our recent NYSE listing, we had no operating history as a publicly traded company and may not be able to successfully operate as a publicly traded company.
Prior to our recent listing on the NYSE, we had no operating history as a publicly traded company. We cannot assure our stockholders that the past experience of our senior management team will be sufficient for us to successfully operate as a publicly traded company. Upon completion of our recent listing on the NYSE, we were required to comply with the NYSE listing standards, and this transition could place a significant strain on our management systems, infrastructure and other resources. Failure to operate successfully as a publicly traded company would have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, and per share trading price of our common stock.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.
Not applicable.
Item 1C. Cybersecurity.
Our information technology networks, those of our operators and managers and those of third parties on whom we rely are important enablers to our ability to perform day-to-day operations of our business. Our business operations depend on the secure collection, storage, transmission and other processing of proprietary, confidential or sensitive data.
We have implemented and maintain various information security processes designed to identify, assess and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats. Our cybersecurity program includes several safeguards such as access controls, multi-factor authentication, continuous monitoring and alerting systems for internal and external threats and external vulnerability testing. Additionally, we conduct regular evaluation of our cybersecurity program, encompassing internal reviews and third-party assessments to ensure its effectiveness and resilience.
Governance
Our board retains ultimate oversight of cybersecurity risk, which it manages through our enterprise risk management program. Our board has delegated primary responsibility of overseeing cybersecurity risks to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee's responsibilities include reviewing cybersecurity strategies with management, assessing processes and controls pertaining to the management of our information technology operations and their effectiveness and seeking to confirm that management's response to potential cybersecurity incidents is timely and effective. At least annually, the Audit Committee reviews with the management team our cybersecurity risk exposures and the steps that management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. This review may cover a variety of relevant topics, potentially including recent developments, evolving standards, vulnerability assessments, third-party and independent reviews, the threat environment, technological trends and information security considerations related to our operators, managers and third parties. The scope and focus of each review are determined based on current priorities and emerging issues in cybersecurity.
Management and Cybersecurity Working Group
Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, our Vice President of Information Technology, with extensive cybersecurity knowledge and skills from over 15 years of relevant work experience at our company and elsewhere, leads the team responsible for developing and implementing our information security program across our business. This team comprises individuals with relevant educational and technical experience, including a dedicated IT Systems & Security Administrator, with responsibility for various aspects of cybersecurity within our organizations. This team works closely with the Legal department to oversee compliance and regulatory and contractual security requirements. Our Chief Operating Officer also leads our Cybersecurity Incident Management Team, which is comprised of a cross-functional team including Internal Audit, Legal, Information Technology, Risk Management and Accounting leaders. These individuals meet regularly and are informed about and monitor the prevention, mitigation, detection and remediation of cybersecurity incidents. Our Chief Operating Officer is responsible for reporting on cybersecurity and information technology to the Audit Committee.
Information Security Program
Our Vice President of Information Technology and his information security team provide regular reports to the Chief Operating Officer and other relevant teams on various cybersecurity threats, assessments and findings. In addition to our internal cybersecurity capabilities, we also periodically engage assessors, consultants, auditors or other third parties to provide consultation and advice to assist with assessing, identifying and managing cybersecurity risks. Our management team identifies and assesses information security risks using industry practices, including those informed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
To ensure that cybersecurity is an organization-wide effort, we provide mandatory cybersecurity training at least annually for all employees with network access, including training designed to simulate and help prevent phishing and other social engineering attacks. We also employ systems and processes designed to oversee, identify and reduce the potential impact of a security incident at a third-party vendor, service provider or otherwise implicating the third-party technology and systems we use. Additionally, we maintain cybersecurity insurance providing coverage for certain costs related to cybersecurity-related incidents that impact our cybersecurity and information technology infrastructure.
Incident Response
The Cybersecurity Incident Management Team maintains and oversees an incident response plan that applies in the event of a cybersecurity threat or incident to provide a standardized framework for responding to cybersecurity incidents. The incident response plan sets out a coordinated approach to investigating, containing, documenting and mitigating incidents, including reporting findings and keeping senior management and other key stakeholders informed and involved as appropriate. The objectives of the incident response plan are to reduce the number of systems and users affected by security incidents, reduce the time a threat actor spends within our network, reduce the damage caused by the breach and reduce the time required to restore normal operations. The incident response plan also specifies the use of third-party experts for legal advice, consulting and cyber incident response.
Material Cybersecurity Risks, Threats and Incidents
While we employ several measures to prevent, detect and mitigate cybersecurity threats, there is no guarantee such efforts will be successful. We also rely on information technology and other third-party vendors to support our business, including securely processing personal, confidential, financial, sensitive or proprietary and other types of information. Despite our efforts to improve our ability, and the ability of relevant third parties', to protect against cyber threats, we may not be able to protect all information, systems, products and services. While we are not aware of any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected us to date, there can be no guarantee that we will not be the subject of future attacks, threats or incidents that may have a material impact on our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. Additional information on cybersecurity risks we face can be found in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading "A breach of information technology systems on which we rely could materially and adversely impact us," which should be read in conjunction with the foregoing information.
Item 2. Properties.
As of December 31, 2023, our principal executive offices are located at 18191 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 300, Irvine, California 92612. We believe our existing leased facilities are in good condition and suitable for the conduct of our business.
Real Estate Investments
As of December 31, 2022,2023, we operated through sixfour reportable business segments: integrated senior health campuses, MOBs, SNFs, SHOP, senior housing —OM, triple-net leased properties and hospitals.SHOP. We own and/or operate 100% of our properties as of December 31, 2022,2023, with the exception of our investments through Trilogy, or Trilogy Portfolio, Lakeview IN Medical Plaza, Southlake TX Hospital, Central Florida Senior Housing Portfolio, Pinnacle Beaumont ALF, Pinnacle Warrenton ALF and Louisiana Senior Housing Portfolio. See Note 13,12, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, and Note 14,13, Equity — Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion of our noncontrolling interests.

Market Information
There isOur common stock began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “AHR” on February 7, 2024. As of March 15, 2024, we had approximately 131,597,967 aggregate shares of our common stock outstanding, held by approximately 48,187 stockholders of record. This number does not represent the actual number of beneficial owners of our common stock because shares of our common stock are frequently held in “street name” by securities dealers and others for the beneficial owners who may vote the shares. Prior to February 7, 2024, there was no established public trading market for shares of our common stock.
ToOn February 9, 2024, we closed the 2024 Offering, through which we issued 64,400,000 shares, including the underwriters’ overallotment of 8,400,000 shares, of a new class of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at an initial price to the public of $12.00 per share.
Prior to the 2024 Offering, to assist the members of FINRA and their associated persons, pursuant to FINRA Rule 2231, we disclose in each annual report distributed to stockholders a per share estimated value of the shares, the method by which it was developed, and the date of the data used to develop the estimated value. In addition, we prepare annual statements of the estimated per share value to assist fiduciaries of benefit plans and IRAs subject to the annual reporting requirements of ERISA in the preparation of their reports relating togenerally disclosed an investment in shares of our common stock. For these purposes, our updated estimated per share NAV is $31.40 calculated as of December 31, 2022, and represents a decrease from our previously determined estimated per share NAV of $37.16, which management believes generally reflects changes in property specific factors, such as the age ofour shares based on a property, demand for space and the financial stability of major tenants, and to an even greater degree, broader market factors such as the continued impact on operations from COVID-19, inflation, prevailing interest rates and movements in capitalization rates that also significantly impact values. The updated estimated per share NAV of $31.40 was approved and established by our board onvaluation performed at least annually. On March 15, 2023, based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, calculated as of December 31, 2022. Please see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on March 17, 2023, for additional information regarding the methodology used to determine the updated estimated per share NAV, the information and valuation materials considered by2022, our board in determining the updated estimated per share NAVauthorized and our independent third-party valuation firm. However, there is no established public trading market for the shares of our common stock at this time, and there can be no assurance that stockholders could receive $31.40 per share if such a market did exist and they sold their shares of our common stock or that they would be able to receive such amount for their shares of our common stock in the future.
Pursuant to FINRA rules, we generally disclose an estimated per share NAV of our shares based on a valuation performed at least annually, and we disclose the resulting estimated per share NAV in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K distributed to stockholders.$31.40. When determining the estimated per share NAV, there are currently no SEC, federal and state rules that establish requirements specifying the methodology to employ in determining an estimated per share NAV; provided, however, that the determination of the estimated per share NAV must be conducted by, or with the material assistance or confirmation of, a third-party valuation expert or service and must be derived from a methodology that conforms to standard industry practice. In determining the updated estimated per share NAV of our shares as of December 31, 2022, our board considered information and analysis, including valuation materials that were provided by an independent third-party valuation firm, and the estimated per share NAV recommendation made by the audit committee of our board, which committee is comprised entirely of independent directors. Please see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on March 17, 2023, for additional information regarding the methodology used to determine the updated estimated per share NAV, the information and valuation materials considered by our board in determining the updated estimated per share NAV and our independent third-party valuation firm.

Distributions
The following information represents distributions of GAHR IV for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020. Following the consummation of the Merger between GAHR III and GAHR IV on October 1, 2021, the information included below represents the distributions of the Combined Company.
Prior to March 31, 2020, the GAHR IVOur board authorized a daily distribution to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the period commencing on May 1, 2016 and ending on March 31, 2020. The daily distributions were calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and were equal to $0.006575344 per share of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock, which was equal to an annualized distribution rate of $2.40 per share. These distributions were aggregated and paid in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP on a monthly basis, in arrears, only from legally available funds.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects to our business and operations, at the end of the first quarter of 2020, the GAHR IV board decided to take steps to protect our capital and maximize our liquidity in an effort to strengthen our long-term financial prospects by reducing our distribution payments to stockholders. Consequently, the GAHR IV board authorized a daily distribution to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the period commencing on April 1, 2020 and ending on August 31, 2021, which was calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and was equal to $0.004383560 per share of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock. Such daily distribution was equal to an annualized distribution rate of $1.60 per share. The distributions were aggregated and paid in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP on a monthly basis, in arrears, only from legally available funds.
On March 18, 2021, in connection with the GAHR IV special committee's strategic alternative review process, the GAHR IV board of directors authorized the suspension of the DRIP, effective as of April 1, 2021. As a result, beginning with the April 2021 distributions, which were paid in May 2021, there were no further issuances of shares pursuant to the DRIP, and stockholders who were participants in the AHR DRIP received cash distributions instead. On October 4, 2021, our board authorized the reinstatement of the DRIP and as a result, beginning with the October 2021 distribution, which was paid in November 2021, stockholders who previously enrolled as participants in the DRIP (including former GAHR III stockholders who participated in the GAHR III distribution reinvestment plan) received distributions in shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms of the AHR DRIP, instead of cash distributions.
The GAHR IV board of directors also authorized distributions to our Class T common stockholders and Class I common stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 17, 2021, equal to $0.131506800 per share of our common stock, which was equal to an annualized distribution rate of $1.60 per share. Further, our board authorized record date distributions to our Class T common stockholders and Class I common stockholders of record as of each monthly record date from October 2021 through June 2022, equal to $0.133333332 per share of our common stock, which was equal to an annualized distribution rate of $1.60 per share. The distributions were paid in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to the AHR DRIP.
Effective beginning with the third quarter of 2022,shall authorize distributions, if any, were or shall be authorized by our board on a quarterly basis, in such amounts as our board determined or shall determine, and each quarterly record date for the purposes of such distributions was or shall be determined and authorized by our board in the last month of each calendar quarter until such time as our board changes our distribution policy. On September 28, 2022, our board authorized a distribution to our Class T common stockholders and Class I common stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 29, 2022, for the quarter commencing on July 1, 2022 and ending on September 30, 2022. The quarterly distribution was equal to $0.40 per share of our common stock, which was equal to an annualized distribution rate of $1.60 per share. The third quarter distribution was paid in October 2022 in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to the AHR DRIP, only from legally available funds.
On November 14, 2022, our board suspended the AHRour DRIP Offeringoffering beginning with distributions declared, if any, for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. As a result of the suspension of the AHRour DRIP, unless and until our board reinstates the AHRour DRIP Offering,offering, stockholders who are current participants in the AHRour DRIP were or will be paid distributions in cash. On December 12, 2022,
Since the first quarter of 2023, our board has authorized a distribution to our Class T common stockholders and Class I common stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 29, 2022, for the quarter commencing on October 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2022. The quarterly distribution was equal to $0.40$0.25 per share to holders of our common stock, which waswe expect will continue to be paid in the future, though we cannot guarantee that our distributions will continue at the current value. Such quarterly distributions were equal to an annualized distribution rate of $1.60$1.00 per share and paid in cash, only from legally available funds.
In response to interest rates that have increased drastically since the beginning of 2022, from a Federal Funds Rate of 0.08% as of January 2022 to 4.57% as of February 2023, and greater uncertainty surrounding further interest rate movements, our board elected to reduce our quarterly distribution to $0.25 per share in order to preserve our liquidity, better align distributions with available cash flows and position our company for its long-term strategic goals. On March 15, 2023, our board authorized a reduced quarterly distribution from $0.40 per share to $0.25 per share to our Class T common stockholders and Class I common stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 4, 2023. The distribution for the quarter commencing January 1, 2023 to March 31, 2023, which will be paid on or about April 18, 2023, represents an annualized distribution rate of $1.00 per share. See our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2023 for more information.
The amount of the quarterly distributions paid to our common stockholders was determined quarterly or monthly, as applicable, by our board and was dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code. We have not established any limit on the amount of borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences.

Our share repurchase plan allowed for repurchases of shares of our common stock by us when certain criteria were met. Share repurchases were made at the sole discretion of our board. Funds for the repurchase of shares of our common stock originated exclusively from the cumulative proceeds we received from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings.
OnIn October 4, 2021, our board approved our amended and restated share repurchase plan that included a change in the repurchase price with respect to repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability (as such term is defined in our share repurchase plan) of stockholders, to the most recently published estimated per share NAV. In addition, on October 4, 2021, our board authorized the partial reinstatement of our share repurchase plan with respect to requests to repurchase shares resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, effective with respect to qualifying repurchases for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021. All share repurchase requests other than those requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders were rejected.
On November 14, 2022, our board suspended our share repurchase plan with respect to all repurchase requests, including repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, beginning with share repurchases for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. See Note 14, Equity — Share Repurchase Plan, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.

Overview and Background
American Healthcare REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, is a leading internally-managedself-managed REIT that acquires, owns and operates a diversified portfolio of clinical healthcare real estate properties, focusing primarily on outpatient medical office buildings, or MOBs, senior housing, skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities. We have built a fully-integrated management platform, with approximately 113110 employees, that operates clinical healthcare properties throughout the United States, the United Kingdom and the Isle of Man. We also operate healthcare-related facilities utilizing the structure permitted by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007, which is commonly referred to as a “RIDEA” structure (the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, authorizing the RIDEA structure were enacted as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008). Our healthcare facilities operated under a RIDEA structure include our senior housing operating properties, or SHOP, and our integrated senior health campuses. We have originated and acquired secured loans and may also originate and acquire other real estate-related investments on an infrequent and opportunistic basis. We generally seek investments that produce current income; however, we have selectively developed, and may continue to
selectively develop, healthcare real estate properties. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We believe that we have been organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code.
Merger ofOn October 1, 2021, Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. and Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc.
On October 1, 2021, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 23, 2021,, or the Merger Agreement, GAHR III, merged with and into Continentala wholly-owned subsidiary, or Merger Sub, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company and newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc., or GAHR IV, or Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving company, orwhich we refer to as the REIT Merger. On October 1, 2021, also pursuant to the Merger, Agreement,and our operating partnership, Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership and subsidiary and operating partnership of GAHR IV, or GAHR IV Operating Partnership, merged with and into Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, or our operating partnership,the Surviving Partnership, with our operating partnershipthe Surviving Partnership being the surviving entity, or the Partnership Merger. We collectivelywhich we refer to the REIT Merger andas the Partnership Merger asand, together with the REIT Merger, the Merger. Following the Merger on October 1, 2021, our company or the Combined Company, was renamed American Healthcare REIT, Inc., and our operating partnership, also referred to as the surviving partnership,Surviving Partnership was renamed American Healthcare REIT Holdings, LP. The REIT Merger was intended to qualify as a reorganization under, and within the meaning of, Section 368(a) of the Code. As a result of and at the effective time of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of GAHR III and GAHR IV Operating Partnership ceased.
At the effective time of the REIT Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, each issued and outstanding share of GAHR III’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, converted into the right to receive 0.9266 shares of GAHR IV’s Class I common stock, $0.01 par value per share. Further, at the effective time of the Partnership Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, (i) each unit of limited partnership interest in the surviving partnership outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive 0.9266 of a Partnership Class I Unit, as defined in the agreement of limited partnership, as amended, of the surviving partnership, and (ii) each unit of limited partnership interest in GAHR IV Operating Partnership immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive one unit of limited partnership interest of the surviving partnership of like class.
AHI AcquisitionLP, or our operating partnership.
Also on October 1, 2021, immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, GAHR III acquired a newly formed entity, American Healthcare Opps Holdings, LLC, or NewCo, which we refer to as the AHI Acquisition, pursuant to a contribution and exchange agreement dated June 23, 2021, or the Contribution Agreement, between GAHR III; our operating partnership; American Healthcare Investors, LLC, or AHI; Griffin Capital Company, LLC, or Griffin Capital; Platform Healthcare Investor T-II, LLC; Flaherty Trust; and Jeffrey T. Hanson, the non-executive Chairman of our board of directors, or our board, Danny Prosky, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and Mathieu B. Streiff, one of our directors, or collectively, the AHI Principals. NewCo owned substantially all of the business and operations of AHI, as well as all of the equity interests in (i) Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV Advisor, LLC, or GAHR IV Advisor, a subsidiary of AHI that served as the external advisor of GAHR IV, and (ii) Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Advisor, LLC, or GAHR III Advisor, also referred to as our former advisor, a subsidiary of AHI that served as the external advisor of GAHR III.
Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, AHI contributed substantially all of its business and operations to the surviving partnership, including its interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor, and Griffin Capital contributed its then-current ownership interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor to the surviving partnership. In exchange for these contributions, the surviving partnership issued limited partnership units, OP units. Subject to working capital and other customary adjustments, the total approximate value of these OP units at the time of consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, and prior to the reverse stock split, was approximately $131,674,000, with a reference value for purposes thereof of $8.71 per OP unit, such that the surviving partnership issued 15,117,529 OP units as consideration, or the Closing Date Consideration.2021. Following the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition, the Combined Companyour company became self-managed. See “Operating Partnership and Former Advisor” below for a further discussion. Such OP units were owned by AHI Group Holdings, LLC, or AHI Group Holdings, which is owned and controlled by the AHI Principals, Platform Healthcare Investor TII, LLC, Flaherty Trust and a wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital, or collectively, the NewCo Sellers.
The AHI Acquisition was treated as a business combination for accounting purposes, with GAHR III as both the legal and accounting acquiror of NewCo. While GAHR IV was the legal acquiror of GAHR III in the REIT Merger, GAHR III was determined to be the accounting acquiror in the REIT Merger in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations, after considering the relative share ownership and the composition of the governing body of the Combined Company. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects results of the Combined Company, and the financial information set forth herein prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects GAHR III’s results. For this reason, period to period comparisons may not be meaningful.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our critical accounting policies are those that willestimates have the most impact on the reporting of our financial condition and results of operations and those requiringrequire significant judgments and estimates. We believe that our judgments and estimates are consistently applied and produce financial information that fairly present our financial condition and results of operations. Our most critical accounting policies that involve judgments and estimates include (1) real estate investments purchase price allocation, (2) impairment of long-lived assets, (3) goodwill, (4) revenue recognition and grant income, (5) resident receivable allowances and (6) income taxes.allowances.
These critical accounting policies involve estimates that may require complex judgment in their application and are evaluated on an on-goingongoing basis using information that is available as well as various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, if our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions or other matters had been different, we may have applied a different accounting treatment, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. A discussion of our significant accounting policies is included within Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policiesestimates during 2022.2023. Below is a summary of the key judgments and estimatesassumptions used in our critical accounting policies.
Real Estate Investments Purchase Price Allocation
Upon the acquisition of real estate properties or entities owning real estate properties, we determine whether the transaction is a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. If the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are not a business, we account for the transaction as an asset acquisition. Under both methods, we recognize the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed; however, for a transaction accounted for as an asset acquisition, we capitalize transaction costs and allocate the purchase price using a relative fair value method allocating all accumulated costs, whereas, for a transaction accounted for as a business combination, we immediately expense transaction costs incurred associated with the business combination and allocate the purchase price based on the estimated fair value of each separately identifiable asset and liability.
In accounting for asset acquisitions and business combinations, we, with assistance from independent valuation specialists, measure the fair value of tangible and intangible identified assets and liabilities, as applicable, based on their respective fair values for acquired properties, which is then allocated to acquired investments in real estate. The fair value measurement and its allocation require significant judgment and, in some cases, involve complex calculations. These allocation assessments directly impact our financial statements.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We also periodically perform an analysis that requires us to judge whether indicators of impairment exist and to estimate likely future cash flows. Projections of expected future operating cash flows require that we estimate future revenue amounts, future property operating expenses and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including discountcapitalization and growth rates, where applicable, could result in an incorrect assessment of the recoverability of the carrying value of our real estate assets. In the event that an asset group fails its recoverability test and our carrying value exceeds our estimated fair value, andthe subjectivity of assumptions used could result in the misstatement of the adjusted carrying value of our real estate assets and net income (loss).
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of underlying identifiable net assets of a business acquired. This allocation is based upon our determination of the value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, which requires judgment and some of the estimates involve complex calculations. These allocation assessments have a direct impact
on our financial statements. Our goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Such evaluation could involve estimated future cash flows, which is highly subjective, and is based in part on assumptions regarding future events. We take a qualitative approach, as applicable, to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting unit in step one of the impairment test. When step one of the impairment test is utilized, we compare the fair value of athe reporting segmentunit with its carrying amount. We recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied value in the current period. We take a qualitative approach, as applicable, to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting segment in step one of the impairment test.
Revenue Recognition and Grant Income
A significant portion of resident fees and services revenue represents healthcare service revenue that is reported at the amount that we expect to be entitled to in exchange for providing patient care. These amounts are due from patients, third-party payors (including health insurers and government programs), other healthcare facilities and others and include variable consideration for retroactive revenue adjustments due to settlement of audits, reviews and investigations. Such variable consideration is included in the determination of the estimated transaction price for providing care. These settlements include estimates based on the terms of the payment agreement with the payor, correspondence from the payor and our historical settlement activity, including an assessment to ensure that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the retroactive adjustment is subsequently resolved. Estimated settlements are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known (that is, new information becomes available), or as years are settled or are no longer subject to such audits, reviews and investigations.
We recognize amounts granted through federal and state government programs (such as through the CARES Act) that were established for eligible healthcare providers to preserve liquidity in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as grant income or as a reduction of property operating expenses, as applicable, when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and all conditions to retain the funds will be met. We adjust our estimates and assumptions of such grants based on the applicable guidance provided by the government and the best available information that we have.
Resident Receivable Allowances
An allowance is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of residents and payors to meet the contractual obligations under their lease or service agreements. Substantially all of such allowances are recorded as direct
reductions of resident fees and services revenue as contractual adjustments provided to third-party payors or implicit price concessions in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. Our determination of the adequacy of these allowances is based primarily upon evaluations of historical loss experience, the residents’ financial condition, security deposits, cash collection patterns by payor and by state, current economic conditions, future expectations in estimating credit losses and other relevant factors.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 1, 2016. We believe that we have been organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. Our qualification as a REIT, and maintenance of such qualification, will depend on our ability to meet, on a continuing basis, various complex requirements under the Code relating to, among other things, the sources of our gross income, the composition and values of our assets, our distribution levels and the concentration of ownership of our stock. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on REIT taxable income that we currently distribute to our stockholders.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any calendar year and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our income would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the corporate rate, and we would likely be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we fail to qualify. Accordingly, our failure to qualify as a REIT could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and amounts available for distribution to our stockholders. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may still be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and assets and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income. In addition, subject to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, a portion of our business may be conducted through, and a portion of our income may be earned in, one or more TRSs that are themselves subject to regular corporate income taxation.

Acquisitions and Dispositions in 2023, 2022 2021 and 20202021
For a discussion of our acquisitions and dispositions of investments in 2023, 2022 2021 and 2020,2021, see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Properties Held for Sale, Note 3, Real Estate Investments, Net, and Note 4, Business Combinations, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Factors Which May Influence Results of Operations
In connection with the Merger, GAHR IV was the legal acquiror and GAHR III was the accounting acquiror for financial reporting purposes, as discussed in Note 1, Organization and Description of Business, and Note 4, Business Combinations, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the Merger reflects results of the Combined Company, and the financial information set forth herein prior to the Merger reflects GAHR III’s results. Furthermore, as a result of the AHI Acquisition and the Merger on October 1, 2021, we employed a workforce necessary to operate as a self-managed company. The impact on our results of operations from operating as a self-managed company is predominantly an increase in general and administrative costs related to employing the necessary workforce and cost savings associated with no longer paying advisory fees to our former advisor. For these reasons, period to period comparisons may not be meaningful.
Other than the effects of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition discussed above, and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and inflation discussed below, as well as other national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, orand as otherwise disclosed in our risk factors, we are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues or income from the acquisition, disposition, management and operation of our properties. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results or performance, see Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
COVID-19
Our residents, tenants, operating partners and managers, our industry and the U.S. economy may continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. While the COVID 19 pandemic is subsiding, the timing and extent of the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is dependent upon many factors, including the emergence and severity of COVID-19 variants, the effectiveness and frequency of booster vaccinations and the duration and implications of restrictions and safety measures. As the lasting effect of the COVID-19 pandemic is still
impacting the healthcare system to a certain extent, it continues to present challenges for us as an owner and operator of healthcare facilities, making it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on real estate markets in which we own and/or operate properties and our portfolio of investments. COVID-19 is particularly dangerous among the senior population and results in heightened risk to our senior housing and SNFs, and we continue to work diligently to maintain aggressive protocols at such facilities as well as actively collaborate with our tenants, operating partners and managers to respond and take action to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We have evaluated the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business thus far and incorporated information concerning such impacts into our assessments of liquidity, impairment and collectability from tenants and residents as of December 31, 2022. We will continue to monitor such impacts and will adjust our estimates and assumptions based on the best available information.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a significant decline in resident occupancies at our leased senior housing facilities and SNFs, SHOP and integrated senior health campuses and an increase in COVID-19 related operating expenses with more costly short-term hires due to the shortage of healthcare personnel. Therefore, our focus at such properties continues to be on resident occupancy recovery and operating expense management. Resident occupancies at our senior housing and SNFs have gradually improved to near pre-pandemic levels. We believe the operational recovery of such classes from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will generally continue and that such recovery over time towards pre-pandemic levels will drive our overall portfolio performance.
As a result of the federal government's COVID-19 public health emergency declaration in January 2020, certain federal and state pandemic-related relief measures, such as funding, procedural waivers and/or reimbursement increases, became available to some of our tenants and operators. On January 30, 2023, the Biden Administration announced that the COVID-19 public health emergency declaration will expire on May 11, 2023, creating uncertainty as to how widespread these measures will continue to be and to what extent they may be distributed to and benefit our tenants and operators.
The lasting effect of the COVID-19 pandemic over the next 12 months will largely depend on future developments, which cannot be predicted with confidence at this time. See the “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections below, as well as Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
Inflation
For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 inflation has affected our operations. The annual rate of inflation in the United States was 6.0%3.2% in February 2023,2024, as measured by the Consumer Price Index. We believe inflation has impacted our operations such that we have experienced, and continue to experience, increases in the cost of labor, services, energy and supplies, and therefore continued inflationary pressures on our integrated senior health campuses and SHOP could continue to impact our profitability in future periods. To offset the impact of inflation on the cost of labor and services, we had our RIDEA managers bill higher than average annual rent and care fee increases for existing residents in 2023 and 2024, as compared to prior years, while adjusting market rates as frequently as needed based on competitor pricing and market conditions. We believe this practice will improve operating performance in our integrated senior health campuses and SHOP, as well as increase rent coverage and the stability of our real estate revenue in our triple-net leased properties over time.
For properties that are not operated under a RIDEA structure, there are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that help us mitigate the impact of inflation. These provisions include negotiated rental increases, which historically range from 2% to 3% per year, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges and real estate tax and insurance reimbursements. However, due to the long-term nature of existing leases, among other factors, the leases may not reset frequently enough to cover inflation. A period of
In addition, inflation could also caused, and may continue to cause, an increase in the cost of our variable-rate debt due to rising interest rates. See Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk — Interest Rate Risk, for a further discussion.
Scheduled Lease Expirations
Excluding our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses, as of December 31, 2022,2023, our properties were 92.2%91.3% leased and, during 2023, 7.7%2024, 9.8% of the leased GLA is scheduled to expire. Our leasing strategy focuses on negotiating renewals for leases scheduled to expire during the next twelve12 months. In the future, if we are unable to negotiate renewals, we will try to identify new tenants or collaborate with existing tenants who are seeking additional space to occupy. As of December 31, 2022,2023, our remaining weighted average lease term was 7.26.6 years, excluding our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses.
Our combined SHOP and integrated senior health campuses were 82.5%84.4% leased as of December 31, 2022.2023. Substantially all of our leases with residents at such properties are for a term of one year or less.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021
Our operating results are primarily comprised of income derived from our portfolio of properties and expenses in connection with the acquisition and operation of such properties. Our primary sources of revenue include rent generated by our leased, non-RIDEA properties and resident fees and services revenue from our RIDEA properties. Our primary expenses include property operating expenses and rental expenses. In addition, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, following the AHI Acquisition that resulted in our company being self managed, general, and administrative expenses include payroll and other corporate operating expenses but no longer include advisory fees to our former advisor. In general, and under a normal operating environment without the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic and challenging economic conditions resulting from inflation, we expect amounts related to our portfolio of leased, non-RIDEA properties to increase in the future due to fixed annual rent escalationssuch revenues and amountsexpenses related to our portfolio of RIDEA properties to increase in the future due to an overall increase in occupancies, resident fees and market rents as well as an increase in the pricing of care services provided. The ability to compare one period to another is also impacted by the closing of the AHI Acquisition and the increase in size of our real estate portfolio as a result of the Merger. See Note 1, Organization and Description of Business and Note 4, Business Combinations, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. As of bothDuring the quarter ended December 31, 20222023, we modified how we evaluate our business and 2021,make resource allocations, and therefore determined that we operatedoperate through sixfour reportable business segments: integrated senior health campuses, OM (which was formerly known as MOBs), triple-net leased properties and SHOP. All segment information included herein has been recast for all periods presented to reflect four reportable business segments and the change in segment name from MOBs SNFs, SHOP,to OM.
The most significant drivers behind changes in our consolidated results of operations for the year ended 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022 were primarily due to the adverse effects of inflation, which resulted in increases in the cost of labor, services, energy and supplies; our acquisitions and dispositions of investments subsequent to December 31, 2022; and the transitions of the operations of certain senior housing —and skilled nursing facilities from triple-net leased and hospitals.
Except where otherwise noted, theproperties to RIDEA structures. The changes in our consolidated results of operations for 2022 as compared to 2021 are primarily due to the acquisition of GAHR IV’s portfolio of 92 buildings, or approximately 4,799,000 square feet of GLA, as a result of the Merger on October 1, 2021,2021; the disruption to our normal operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic andpandemic; grant income received, as well asreceived; and the adverse effect of inflation. Additional drivers behind the changes in our consolidated results of operations are discussed in more detail below. See Note 3, Real Estate Investments, Net and Note 4, Business Combinations, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion of our acquisitions and dispositions during 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Our primary sources of revenue include rent generated by our leased, non-RIDEA properties, and resident fees and services revenue generated by our RIDEA properties and rent from our RIDEAleased, non-RIDEA properties. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, resident fees and services revenue primarily consisted of rental fees related to resident leases, extended health care fees and other ancillary services, and real estate revenue primarily consisted of base rent and expense recoveries. The amount of revenues generated by our RIDEA properties depends principally on our ability to maintain theresident occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease available space at the then existing rental rates. We also receive grant income. Revenues and grant income by reportable segment consisted of the following for the periods then ended:ended (in thousands):

Resident Fees and Services Revenue
For our integrated senior health campuses segment, we increased resident fees and services revenue by $227,215,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to: (i) improved resident occupancy and higher resident fees as a result of an increase in billing rates; (ii) an increase of $118,320,000 related to our acquisition of the remaining 50.0% interest in a privately held company, RHS Partners, LLC, or RHS, in August 2022, which owns and/or operates 16 integrated senior health campuses located in Indiana; and (iii) an increase of $41,121,000 due to the expansion of our customer base, expansion of services offered and increases in billing rates for such services at an ancillary business unit within Trilogy Investors, LLC, or Trilogy. Such amounts were partially offset by a decrease in total resident fees and services revenue of $11,888,000 due to dispositions within our integrated senior health campuses segment during the third and fourth quarters of 2022.
For our integrated senior health campuses segment, we increased resident fees and services revenue by $69,992,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, due to: (i) improved resident occupancy; (ii) our acquisition of the 50.0% controlling interest in RHS; and (iii) an increase of $11,480,000 due to our acquisition of an integrated senior health campus in Kentucky in January 2022.
For our SHOP segment, we increased resident fees and services revenue by $29,371,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to: (i) our acquisition of a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas within our SHOP segment in December 2022, which increased revenue by $25,375,000; (ii) an increase of $12,714,000 due to the transitioning of SNFs within the Central Wisconsin Senior Care Portfolio to a RIDEA structure in March 2023; and (iii) an increase of $2,817,000 due to the transitioning of senior housing facilities within the Michigan ALF Portfolio to a RIDEA structure in November 2023. The remaining increase in resident fees and services revenue for our SHOP segment was primarily attributable to improved resident occupancy and higher resident fees as a result of increases in billing rates. Such increases were partially offset by a decrease of $18,755,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, due to real estate dispositions within our SHOP segment during the fourth quarter of 2022 and during the year ended December 31, 2023.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, $43,582,000 in resident fees and services revenue for our SHOP segment was due to the increase in the size of our portfolio as a result of the Merger. The remaining increase in resident fees and services revenue for our SHOP segment for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the prior year period,ended December 31, 2021, was primarily attributable to: (i) increasedimproved resident occupancy; (ii) higher resident move-in fees; (iii) an increase of $5,661,000 due to transitioning the leased senior housing facilities within Delta Valley ALF portfolio to a RIDEA structure and including such facilities within SHOP on December 1, 2021; and (iv) an increase of $1,995,000 due to the acquisition of a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas that are nowin December 2022, which is included within our SHOP segment.
For our integrated senior health campuses segment, we experienced an increase in resident fees and services revenue of $69,992,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to our acquisition of the 50.0% controlling interest in a privately held company, RHS Partners, LLC, or RHS. We previously held a 50.0% equity interest in RHS, which owns and/or operates 16 integrated senior health campuses located in Indiana. For the year ended December 31, 2022, we also experienced an increase in resident fees and services revenue of $11,480,000 due to our acquisition of an integrated senior health campus in Kentucky on January 3, 2022. See Note 4, Business Combinations, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion of such acquisitions. The remaining increase in resident fees and services revenue for our integrated senior health campuses segment was primarily attributable to increased resident occupancy.
Real Estate Revenue
For the year ended December 31, 2023, we experienced a decrease in real estate revenue within our triple-net leased properties segment of $12,294,000, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to: (i) the transitioning of SNFs within the Central Wisconsin Senior Care Portfolio to a RIDEA structure in March 2023 and recording the full amortization of $8,073,000 of above-market leases; and (ii) the transitioning of senior housing facilities within Michigan ALF Portfolio to a RIDEA structure in November 2023 and recording the full amortization of $2,756,000 of above-market leases. We also experienced a decrease in real estate revenue for our OM segment for the year ended December 31, 2023 of $2,649,000, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to a decrease of $4,948,000 related to OM building dispositions during the fourth quarter of 2022 and during the year ended December 31, 2023, and a decrease of $579,000 due to the early lease termination of Cullman AL OM III during the fourth quarter of 2023. Such decreases were partially offset by a $2,965,000 increase in real estate revenue for our OM segment due to the full amortization of below-market leases within Cullman AL OM III due to such lease termination during the fourth quarter of 2023.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, $67,234,000 of real estate revenue was primarily due to the increase in the size of our portfolio as a result of the Merger. Such amounts were partially offset by a decrease in rental revenue for our senior housing — leased segment of $2,200,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to transitioning the leased senior housing facilities within Delta Valley ALF portfolio to a RIDEA structure and including such facilities within SHOP onin December 1, 2021. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2022, we experienced a decrease in rental revenue for our MOBsOM segment of $782,000, primarily due to a one-time lease termination fee recognized in June 2021 for one of our MOBs.Stockbridge GA OM III.
Grant Income
For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we recognized $7,475,000, $25,675,000 and $16,951,000, respectively, of grant income at our integrated senior health campuses and SHOP primarily related to government grants received through the CARESCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act economic stimulus programs. As of April 2023, the federal government’s coronavirus public health emergency declaration expired, and certain relief measures have been wound down, and others are being phased out.
Property Operating Expenses and Rental Expenses
Integrated senior health campuses and SHOP typically have a higher percentage of direct operating expenses to revenue than OM buildings and triple-net leased properties due to the nature of RIDEA-type facilities where we conduct day-to-day operations.

See the “Results of Operations” section above for a further discussion.
Investing Activities
real estate notes receivable.The decrease of $20,074,000 in net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the prior year period of $20,074,000ended December 31, 2021, was primarily due to a $43,798,000 increase in proceeds from dispositions of real estate, a $17,852,000 decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash acquired in connection with the Merger on October 1, 2021 and a $8,175,000 decrease in developments and capital expenditures. Such amounts were partially offset by a $13,714,000 payment to acquire the 50.0% controlling interest in RHS in August 2022. See Note 3, Real Estate Investments, Net and Note 4, Business Combinations, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statementsthe Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion of our acquisition of RHS.
Financing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, the increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to the: (i) $113,911,000 change from net borrowings under our lines of credit to net payments on our lines of credit; (ii) $25,162,000 increase in distributions paid to common stockholders; and (iii) $21,266,000 increase in payments on financing and other obligations. Such increases were offset by the $64,382,000 change from net payments on mortgage loans payable to net borrowings under mortgage loans payable and $20,230,000 decrease in repurchases of common stock. During 2023, we repaid our lines of credits primarily from operating cash flows, net proceeds from dispositions and proceeds from long-term mortgage loans payable financed at lower interest rates. The increase in cash used to pay distributions to common stockholders was primarily due to our board’s suspension of our DRIP offering beginning with distributions declared for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. The decrease in cash used to repurchase our common stock was primarily due to our board’s suspension of our share repurchase plan beginning with share repurchase requests for the quarter ending December 31, 2022.
The decrease of $137,033,000 in net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the prior year period of $137,033,000ended December 31, 2021, was primarily due to a decrease in net borrowings under our mortgage loans payable of $269,296,000, a $28,334,000 increase in distributions paid to our common stockholders and a $20,317,000 payment to repurchase our common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we also paid $2,075,000 in offering costs in connection with the filing of our Registration Statement on Form S-11 for a proposedour underwritten public offering by us of our shares of common stockthat closed in conjunction with a contemplated listing of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange, as discussed in the “Overview and Background — Public Offerings” section above.February 2024. No such costs were paid during the year ended December 31, 2021. Such amounts were partially offset by an increase in net borrowings under our lines of credit and term loans of $161,900,000 and borrowings under a financing obligation of $25,900,000. The change in distributions paid to common stockholders was due to the suspension of all stockholder distributions on May 29, 2020 in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which the board of directors of GAHR III subsequently reinstated in June 2021. The change in share repurchases was due to the suspension of the GAHR III share repurchase plan from May 31, 2020 through October 4, 2021, when the partial reinstatement of our share repurchase plan was approved by our board.

For these purposes, the market value of each asset will be equal to the contract purchase price paid for the asset or, if the asset was appraised subsequent to the date of purchase, then the market value will be equal to the value reported in the most recent independent appraisal of the asset. Our policies do not limit the amount we may borrow with respect to any individual investment. As of December 31, 2022, our aggregate borrowings were 48.5% of the combined market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments.distributions.

REIT Requirements
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we are required to distribute to our stockholders a minimum of 90.0% of our REIT taxable income. Existing Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, guidance includes a safe harbor pursuant to which publicly offered REITs can satisfy the distribution requirement by distributing a combination of cash and stock to stockholders. In general, to qualify under the safe harbor, each stockholder must elect to receive either cash or stock, and the aggregate cash component of the distribution to stockholders must represent at least 20.0% of the total distribution. In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to factors including, without limitation, the timing of such distributions or the timing of the collection of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to make distributions by means of secured and unsecured debt financing through one or more unaffiliated third parties. We may also make distributions with cash from capital transactions including, without limitation, the sale of one or more of our properties.
Commitments and Contingencies
For a discussion of our commitments and contingencies, see Note 12,11, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Debt Service Requirements
A significant liquidity need is the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. As of December 31, 2022,2023, we had $1,254,479,000$1,326,313,000 of fixed-rate and variable-rate mortgage loans payable outstanding secured by our properties. As of December 31, 2022,2023, we had $1,282,634,000$1,224,723,000 outstanding and $167,366,000$225,277,000 remained available under our lines of credit. The weighted average effective interest rate on our outstanding debt factoring in our interest rate swaps was 5.82%5.72% per annum. See Note 8, Mortgage Loans Payable, Net, and Note 9, Lines of Credit and Term Loans,Loan, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
We are required by the terms of certain loan documents to meet various financial and non-financial covenants, such as leverage ratios, net worth ratios, debt service coverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios. As of December 31, 2022,2023, we were in compliance with all such covenants and requirements on our mortgage loans payable and our lines of credit and term loans. See Note 22, Subsequent Events — 2022 Credit Agreement Amendment, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion. While the extent and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business has been subsiding, any potential future deterioration of operations in excess of management's projections as a result of COVID-19 could impact future compliance with these covenants.loan. If any future covenants are violated, we anticipate seeking a waiver or amending the debt covenants with the lenders when and if such event should occur. However, there can be no assurances that management will be able to effectively achieve such plans.

Funds from Operations and ModifiedNormalized Funds from Operations
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of funds from operations is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure, and our management uses FFO to evaluate our performance over time. FFO is not equivalent to our net income (loss) as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP financial measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on funds from operations approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, or the White Paper. The White Paper defines funds from operations as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of certain real estate assets, gains or losses upon consolidation of a previously held equity interest and impairment writedowns of certain real estate assets and investments, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO as described above, investors are cautioned that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s policy described above.
Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, which excludes the impact of real estate-related depreciation and amortization and impairments, provides a further understanding of our operating performance to investors, industry analysts and to our management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income (loss).
The Institute for Portfolio Alternatives,We define normalized FFO attributable to controlling interest, or the IPA, an industry trade group, has standardized a measure knownNormalized FFO, as modified funds from operations, which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental performance measure and which we believe to be another appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect operating performance. Modified funds from operations is not equivalent to our net income (loss) as determined under GAAP, and modified funds from operations may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended. We believe that, because modified funds from operations excludes expensed acquisition fees and expenses that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired and that we consider more reflective of investing activities, as well as other non-operating items included in FFO modified funds from operations can provide, on a going forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring our properties and once our portfolio is in place. Investors are cautioned that modified funds from operations should only be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance after properties have been acquired, as it excludes expensed acquisition fees and expenses that have a negative effect on our initial operating performance during the periods in which properties are acquired.
The IPA issued the Practice Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations, or the Practice Guideline, which defines modified funds from operations as funds from operations further adjusted for the following items included in the determination of GAAP net income (loss): expensed acquisition fees and costs;costs, which we refer to as business acquisition expenses; amounts relating to changes in deferred rent and amortization of above- and below-market leasesleases; the non-cash impact of changes to our equity instruments; non-cash or non-recurring income or expense; the non-cash effect of income tax benefits or expenses; capitalized interest; impairment of intangible assets and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to closer to an expected to be received cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts andgoodwill; amortization of premiumsclosing costs on debt security investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income (loss); gains or losses included in net income (loss) from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan; and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect modified funds from operationsNormalized FFO on the same basis. In order to arrive at our reported modified funds from operations attributable to controlling interest, or MFFO, we further adjust the IPA’s definition of modified funds from operations for the impairment of goodwill.
However, FFO and MFFONormalized FFO should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income (loss) or in its applicability in evaluatingas an indicator of our operating performance.performance, GAAP cash flows from operations as an indicator of our liquidity or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. The method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational performance and considered more prominently than the non-GAAP FFO and MFFONormalized FFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO and MFFO.Normalized FFO.
Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors, industry analysts and management as they compare the operating performance of different REITs,used by the REIT industry, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate funds from operations and modifiednormalized funds from operations the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations, which is an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.Normalized FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with other measurements as an indication of our performance. MFFO may be useful in assisting management and investors in assessing the sustainability of operating performance in future operating periods, and in particular, after the offering and acquisition stages are complete.
None of the SEC, NAREIT or any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO or MFFO.Normalized FFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO.
For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized government grants as grant incomeFFO or as a reduction of property operating expenses, as applicable, and within loss from unconsolidated entities. Such amounts were granted through federal and state government programs, such as through the CARES Act, and which were established for eligible healthcare providers to preserve liquidity in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. See the “Results of Operations” section above for a further discussion. The government grants helped mitigate some of the negative impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our financial condition and results of operations. Without such relief funds, the COVID-19 pandemic would have had a material adverse impact to our FFO and MFFO. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, FFO would have been approximately $74,994,000 and $54,516,000, respectively, excluding government grants recognized. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, MFFO would have been approximately $108,812,000 and $62,480,000, respectively, excluding government grants recognized.Normalized FFO.

___________
(1)We recognized a gain upon the acquisition of the 50.0% controlling interest in RHS. Such acquisition resulted in the consolidation of RHS, which was previously accounted for as an equity method investment. We believe that adjusting for such non-recurring gains provides useful supplemental information because such gains may not be reflective of on-going business transactions and operations and is consistent with management’s analysis of our operating performance.
(2)In evaluating investments in real estate, we differentiate the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. By excluding business acquisition expenses that have been deducted as expenses in the determination of GAAP net income or loss, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Business acquisition expenses include payments to our former advisor or its affiliates and third parties.
(3)Under GAAP, above- and below-market leases are assumed to diminish predictably in value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, we believe that by excluding charges relating to the amortization of above- and below-market leases, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.
(4)Under GAAP, closing costs are amortized over the term of our debt security investment as an adjustment to the yield on our debt security investment. This may result in income recognition that is different than the contractual cash flows under our debt security investment. By adjusting for the amortization of the closing costs, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of our debt security investment, providing insight on the
expected contractual cash flows of such investment, and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance.
(5)Under GAAP, as a lessor, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related lease (including rent holidays). As a lessee, we record amortization of right-of-use assets and accretion of lease liabilities for our operating leases. This may result in income or expense recognition that is significantly different than the underlying contract terms. By adjusting such amounts, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms, providing insight on the expected contractual cash flows of such lease terms, and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance.
(6)The loss associated with the early extinguishment of debt primarily relates to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees, write-off of unamortized debt discount or premium, penalties, or other fees incurred. We believe that adjusting for such non-recurring losses provides useful supplemental information because such charges (or losses) may not be reflective of on-going business transactions and operations and is consistent with management’s analysis of our operating performance.
(7)Under GAAP, we are required to include changes in fair value of our derivative financial instruments in the determination of net income or loss. We believe that adjusting for the change in fair value of our derivative financial instruments to arrive at MFFO is appropriate because such adjustments may not be reflective of on-going operations and reflect unrealized impacts on value based only on then current market conditions, although they may be based upon general market conditions. The need to reflect the change in fair value of our derivative financial instruments is a continuous process and is analyzed on a quarterly basis in accordance with GAAP.
(8)We believe that adjusting for the change in foreign currency exchange rates provides useful information because such adjustments may not be reflective of on-going operations.
(9)We recognized an impairment loss of our goodwill pertaining to our SHOP reporting segment as a result of our annual assessment of goodwill. We believe that adjusting for such non-recurring impairment loss provides useful supplemental information because such losses may not be reflective of on-going business transactions and operations and is consistent with management’s analysis of our operating performance.
(10)Includes all adjustments to eliminate the unconsolidated entities’ share or noncontrolling interests’ share, as applicable, of the adjustments described in notes (2) – (9) above to convert our FFO to MFFO.
Net Operating Income
Net operating income, or NOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, generated from properties before general and administrative expenses, business acquisition expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, gain or loss on dispositions, impairment of real estate investments, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, income or loss from unconsolidated entities, gain on re-measurement of previously held equity interest,interests, foreign currency gain or loss, other income and income tax benefit or expense.
NOI is not equivalent to our net income (loss) as determined under GAAP and may not be a useful measure in measuring operational income or cash flows. Furthermore, NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.liquidity. NOI should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income (loss) or. NOI should be reviewed in its applicability in evaluatingconjunction with other measurements as an indication of our operating performance. Investors are also cautioned that NOI should only be used to assess our operational performance in periods in which we have not incurred or accrued any business acquisition expenses.
We believe that NOI is an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the performance of our operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with the operations of the properties. We believe that NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate community. However, our use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount.
For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized government grants as grant income or as a reduction of property operating expenses, as applicable. The government grants helped mitigate some of the negative impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our financial condition and results of operations. Without such relief funds, the COVID-19 pandemic would have had a material adverse impact to our NOI. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, NOI would have been approximately $276,290,000 and $196,385,000, respectively, excluding government grants recognized.
To facilitate understanding of this financial measure, the following is a reconciliation of net income or loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to NOI for the periods presented below:below (in thousands): | | Years Ended December 31, |

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. In pursuing our business plan, we expect that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk. There were no material changes in our market risk exposures, or in the methods we use to manage market risk, between the years ended December 31, 20222023 and 2021.2022.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to acquire and develop properties and other investments. Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate increases on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs while taking into account variable interest rate risk. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow or lend at fixed or variable rates.
We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument, and for which weinstrument. We have not elected, and may not elect hedge accounting treatment. We didcontinue to not elect, to apply hedge accounting treatment to these derivatives; therefore, changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative financial instruments were recorded as a component of interest expense in gain or loss in fair value of derivative financial instruments in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. As of December 31, 2023, our interest rate swaps are recorded in other assets and other liabilities in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their aggregate fair value of $1,463,000 and ($2,389,000), respectively. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. As of December 31, 2022, we did not have any derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. See Note 22, Subsequent Events — Interest Rate Swap, to the Consolidated10, Derivative Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
The Financial Conduct Authority, or FCA, ceased publishing one-weekInstruments, and two-month LIBOR after December 31, 2021 and intends to cease publishing all remaining LIBOR after June 30, 2023. On January 19, 2022, we through our operating partnership, entered into the 2022 Credit Facility that bears interest at varying SOFR rates, at our option. On December 20, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility, that among other things, replaced all references of LIBOR to SOFR. See Note 9, Lines of Credit and Term Loans — 2022 Credit Facility, and 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility,15, Fair Value Measurements, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion of theon our interest rate terms applicable to such facilities.swaps.
We have variable-rate debt outstanding and maturing on various dates from 2023 to 2031 that are indexed to LIBOR. As such, we are monitoring and evaluating the related risks of the discontinuation of LIBOR, which include possible changes to the interest on loans or amounts received and paid on derivative instruments we may enter into in the future. These risks arise in connection with transitioning contracts to a new alternative rate, including any resulting value transfer that may occur. The value of loans or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR could also be impacted when LIBOR is discontinued. For some instruments, the method of transitioning to an alternative rate may be challenging, as they may require negotiation with the respective counterparty. If a contract is not transitioned to an alternative rate when LIBOR is discontinued, the impact on our contracts is likely to vary. When LIBOR is discontinued, interest rates on our current or future indebtedness may be adversely affected. Currently we cannot estimate the overall impact of the phase-out of LIBOR on our current debt agreements, although it is possible that an alternative variable rate could raise our borrowing costs. It is not possible to predict whether LIBOR will continue to be viewed as an acceptable market “benchmark” prior to June 30, 2023, and it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that point. This could result, for example, if a sufficient number of banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to an alternative reference rate will be accelerated and magnified.

Debt Security Investment, Net
As of December 31, 2022,2023, the net carrying value of our debt security investment was $83,000,000.$86,935,000. As we expect to hold our debt security investment to maturity and the amounts due under such debt security investment would beare limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our debt security investment, would have a significant impact on our operations. See Note 16,15, Fair Value Measurements, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a discussion of the fair value of our investment in a held-to-maturity debt security. The effective interest rate on our debt security investment was 4.24% per annum as of December 31, 2022.2023.
Mortgage Loans Payable, Net and Lines of Credit and Term Loans
Mortgage loans payable were $1,254,479,000$1,326,313,000 ($1,229,847,000,1,302,396,000, net of discount/premium and deferred financing costs) as of December 31, 2022.2023. As of December 31, 2022,2023, we had 6876 fixed-rate mortgage loans payable and 1113 variable-rate mortgage loans payable with effective interest rates ranging from 2.21% to 7.26%8.46% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 5.29%4.72%. In addition, as of December 31, 2022,2023, we had $1,282,634,000$1,224,723,000 ($1,281,794,000,1,223,967,000, net of deferred financing fees) outstanding under our lines of credit and term loans,loan, at a weighted-average interest rate of 6.34%7.36% per annum.
As of December 31, 2022,2023, the weighted average effective interest rate on our outstanding debt, factoring in our fixed-rate interest rate swaps, was 5.82%5.72% per annum. An increase in the variable interest rate on our variable-rate mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loansloan constitutes a market risk. As of December 31, 2022,2023, a 0.50% increase in the market rates of interest would have increased our overall annualized interest expense on all of our other variable-rate mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loans by $8,371,000,$5,124,000, or 7.76%3.48% of total annualized interest expense on our mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loans.loan. See Note 8, Mortgage Loans Payable, Net, and Note 9, Lines of Credit and Term Loans,Loan, to the Consolidated Financial Statements that are a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a further discussion.
Other Market Risk
In addition to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, the value of our future investments is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of tenants and residents, which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of December 31, 20222023 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of December 31, 2022,2023, were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Under the supervision, and with the participation, of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued in 2013 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Based on our evaluation under the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued in 2013, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.2023.
(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Director Independence
At least a majority of our directors are required to qualify as “independent” as affirmatively determined by our board. After review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and American Healthcare REIT, our senior management and our independent registered public accounting firm, our board has determined that Messrs. Estes, Flornes, O’Quinn and Smith, and Mses. Hurley and Richardson, who comprise a majority of our board, meet the current independence and qualifications requirements of the NYSE. In addition, our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee members qualify as independent under the NYSE rules applicable to audit committee and compensation committee members.
Board of Directors Leadership Structure
Jeffrey T. Hanson has served as our non-executive Chairman of our board since June 2022. From October 2021 to June 2022, he served as our Executive Chairman of our board. Mr. Hanson also served as our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our board from January 2015 to October 2021. Danny Prosky assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer and became a member of our board in October 2021. Our independent directors believe our board leadership structure is in the best interests of our stockholders as Mr. Hanson is uniquely positioned to lead our board with his exceptional depth of knowledge about our company and the opportunities and challenges we face. As our former Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Hanson provides valuable industry and strategic perspective to our board. Separating the roles of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer also allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on managing our business and operations, while our Chairman of the board focuses on board of directors matters, which we believe is especially important in light of the high level of regulation and scrutiny of public company boards of directors. Our board retains the authority to modify this structure to best address our unique circumstances, and so advance the best interests of all stockholders, as and when appropriate.
In addition, although we do not have a lead independent director, our board believes that the current structure is appropriate and that, for the reasons set forth below, its existing corporate governance practices achieve independent oversight and management accountability. Our governance practices provide for strong independent leadership, independent discussion among directors and for independent evaluation of, and communication with, many members of senior management. These governance practices are reflected in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, as amended, or our Code of Ethics, and our Corporate Governance Guidelines. Some of the relevant processes and other corporate governance practices include:
•A majority of our directors are independent directors. Each director is an equal participant in decisions made by our full board.
•We have separate chairman of the board and chief executive officer roles.
•An Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee comprised entirely of independent directors.
•Strategic and risk oversight by our board and committees of the board.
•The consideration of factors including diversity, age, skills, and such other factors as our board deems appropriate given the current needs of our board and our company, when appointing new directors.
•Each of our directors is elected annually by our stockholders.
•An annual board of directors and committee of the board of directors evaluation process.
Committees of our Board of Directors
Our board has three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The principal functions of each committee are briefly described below. Additionally, our board may from time to time establish other committees to facilitate our board’s oversight of management of the business and affairs of our company. Each committee’s charter is available on the Investor Relations — Corporate Governance section of our website at www.AmericanHealthcareREIT.com. The current chairs and members of each committee are set forth below.
Audit Committee. We have established an audit committee which currently consists of Ms. Hurley and Messrs. Flornes and Estes, all of whom are independent directors, with Mr. Estes serving as the chairman of the Audit Committee. Our board has determined that Ms. Hurley qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under applicable SEC rules. Our audit committee’s primary function is to assist our board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by reviewing the financial information to be provided to the stockholders and others, the system of internal controls which management has established, and the audit and financial reporting process. The Audit Committee: (1) has direct responsibility for appointing and overseeing an independent registered public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, to serve as our independent auditors; (2) reviews the plans and results of the audit engagement with our independent registered public accounting firm; (3) approves audit and non-audit professional services (including the fees and terms thereof) provided by, and the independence of, our independent registered public accounting firm; and (4) consults with our independent registered public accounting firm regarding the adequacy of our internal controls. The Audit Committee also approves the audit committee report required by this item is incorporated by referenceSEC regulations to be included in our annual proxy statement. Additionally, the Audit Committee oversees the investigation and handling of any concerns or complaints that arise under the our whistleblower policy, which includes a third-party administered whistleblower hotline and dedicated email address to enable all interested parties, including our employees, to submit confidential complaints, concerns, unethical business practices, violations or suspected violations for any and all matters pertaining to accounting, internal control, or auditing, as well as potential violations of a law, rule, regulation, or our Code of Ethics. Pursuant to our definitive proxy statementAudit Committee charter, the Audit Committee will be comprised solely of independent directors.
Compensation Committee. We established a compensation committee in October 2021, which is currently comprised of Mr. O’Quinn and Mses. Hurley and Richardson, all of whom are independent directors, with Ms. Hurley serving as the chairwoman of the Compensation Committee. The primary focus of our Compensation Committee is to assist our board in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to officer and director compensation. Our Compensation Committee assists our board in this regard by: (1) reviewing and approving our corporate goals with respect to compensation of executive officers; (2) reviewing and acting on compensation levels and benefit plans for our executive officers; (3) recommending to our board compensation for all non-employee directors, including board of directors and committee retainers, meeting fees and equity-based compensation; (4) administering and granting awards under the American Healthcare REIT, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2015 Incentive Plan, or the AHR Incentive Plan; and (5) setting the terms and conditions of such awards in accordance with the 2015 Incentive Plan. Our Compensation Committee fulfills these responsibilities in accordance with its charter and current laws, rules and regulations. Stock-based compensation plans will be administered by our board if the members of our Compensation Committee do not qualify as “non-employee directors” within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act; however, our board has determined that each member of our Compensation Committee is a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. We established a nominating and corporate governance committee in October 2021, which is currently comprised of Messrs. Flornes and Smith and Ms. Richardson, all of whom are independent directors, with Mr. Flornes serving as the chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s primary focus is to assist our board in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to director nominations, corporate governance, board of directors and committee evaluations and conflict resolutions. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists our board of directors in this regard by: (1) identifying individuals qualified to serve on our board, consistent with criteria approved by our board, and recommending that our board select a slate of director nominees for election by our stockholders at the annual meeting of our stockholders; (2) developing
and implementing the process necessary to identify prospective members of our board; (3) determining the advisability of retaining any search firm or consultant to assist in the identification and evaluation of candidates for membership on our board; (4) overseeing an annual evaluation of our board, each of the committees of our board and management; (5) developing and recommending to our board a set of corporate governance principles and policies; (6) periodically reviewing our corporate governance principles and policies and suggesting improvements thereto to our board; and (7) considering and acting on any conflicts-related matter required by our charter or otherwise permitted by Maryland law where the exercise of independent judgment by any of our directors, could reasonably be compromised, including approval of any transaction involving any of our affiliates. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee fulfills these responsibilities primarily by carrying out the activities enumerated in its charter and in accordance with current laws, rules and regulations.
Corporate Governance
Pursuant to our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s charter, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee developed and recommended a set of formal, written guidelines for corporate governance, or our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which were adopted by our full board. We also adhere to what we believe to be filed within 120 days afterindustry leading policies to ensure our management and employees are acting in a manner which protects the endbest interest of our stockholders. This includes our Code of Ethics, Whistleblower Policy, Insider Trading Policy, Regulation FD and Disclosure Policy, and Related Party Transactions Policy.
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also, from time to time, reviews our governance structures and procedures and suggests improvements thereto to our full board. Such improvements, if adopted by our full board, will be incorporated into our Corporate Governance Guidelines.
Periodic Evaluations
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts an annual evaluation of its own performance and oversees the annual evaluations of our board, each of the other committees of our board and management.
Conflicts of Interest
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers and acts upon any conflicts of interest-related matter required by our charter or otherwise permitted by Maryland law where the exercise of independent judgment by any of our directors, who is not an independent director, could reasonably be compromised, including approval of any transaction involving our affiliates.
Director Nomination Procedures and Diversity
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, among other things, assists our board in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to director nominations. In selecting a qualified nominee for recommendation to our board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers such factors as it deems appropriate, which may include: the current composition of our board; the range of talents of a nominee that would best complement those already represented on our board; the extent to which a nominee would diversify our board; a nominee’s standards of integrity, commitment and independence of thought and judgment; a nominee’s ability to represent the long-term interests of our stockholders as a whole; a nominee’s relevant expertise and experience upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management; a nominee who is accomplished in his or her respective field, with superior credentials and recognition; and the need for specialized expertise. While we do not have term limits for our board or a formal refreshment policy, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and board regularly evaluate potential candidates and consider the potential benefits of adding new members to our board.
While we do not have a formal diversity policy, we believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of our directors, considered as a group, should provide a significant composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow our board to fulfill its responsibilities. Accordingly, we actively seek out qualified women and individuals from underrepresented communities to include in the pool from which board of director nominees are chosen. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews our board’s composition by evaluating whether our board has the right mix of skills, experience and backgrounds. As part of such annual review process, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews its own effectiveness in recommending director nominees with diverse backgrounds and experiences relative to any perceived needs in the composition of our board.
While our full board remains responsible for selecting its own nominees and recommending them for election by our stockholders, our board has delegated the screening process necessary to identify qualified candidates to our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews director suitability and the continuing composition of our board; it then recommends director nominees who are voted on by our full board. In recommending director nominees to our board, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates for membership on our board recommended by its own members, other directors and management, as well as by our stockholders, provided such stockholder nominations for our board meet the established director criteria. Notice of proposed stockholder nominations for our board must be delivered in accordance with the requirements set forth in our bylaws and SEC Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Nominations must include the full name of the proposed nominee, a brief description of the proposed nominee’s business experience for at least the previous five years and a representation that the nominating stockholder is a beneficial or record owner of our common stock. Any such submission must be accompanied by the written consent of the proposed nominee to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected. Nominations should be delivered to: American Healthcare REIT, Inc., Board of Directors, 18191 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 300, Irvine, California 92612, Attention: Secretary.
In evaluating the persons nominated as potential directors, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider each candidate without regard to the source of the recommendation and take into account those factors that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines are relevant. Our board, based on the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, selects the slate of directors to be nominated for election at the annual meeting of stockholders.
Corporate Responsibility — Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
Refer to Item 1, Business — Corporate Responsibility — Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), for more information regarding our corporate responsibility and ESG initiatives.
Board of Directors Role in Risk Oversight
Our board oversees our stockholders’ and other stakeholders’ interest in the long-term success of our business strategy and our overall financial strength.
Our board is actively involved in overseeing risks associated with our business strategies and decisions. It does so, in part, through its oversight of our executive officers responsible for our real estate and real estate-related investments, acquisitions and dispositions and debt financing. Our board is also responsible for overseeing risks related to corporate governance and the selection of nominees to our board.
In addition, the Audit Committee meets regularly with our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, independent registered public accounting firm and legal counsel to discuss our major financial risk exposures, financial reporting, internal controls, credit and liquidity risk, compliance risk and cybersecurity risk. The Audit Committee meets regularly in separate executive sessions with the independent registered public accounting firm, as well as with committee members only, to facilitate a full and candid discussion of risk and other governance issues.
The Compensation Committee oversees, among other things, the assessment and management of risks related to our incentive compensation plans and equity-based incentive plan and whether our incentive compensation arrangements encourage excessive risk taking.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the assessment and management of risks related to our governance structure, including our board leadership structure and management and director succession, as well as our ESG risks, trends and best practices.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
We have adopted our Code of Ethics, which contains general guidelines for conducting our business and is designed to help our directors, employees and independent consultants resolve ethical issues in an increasingly complex business environment. Our Code of Ethics applies to our officers, employees and all members of our board. Our Code of Ethics covers topics including, but not limited to, conflicts of interest, fair dealing, confidentiality of information, and compliance with laws and regulations. Stockholders may request a copy of our Code of Ethics, which will be provided without charge, by writing to: American Healthcare REIT, Inc., 18191 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 300, Irvine, California 92612, Attention: Secretary. Our Code of Ethics is also available in the Investor Relations – Corporate Governance section on our website, http://www.AmericanHealthcareREIT.com. If, in the future, we amend, modify or waive a provision in our Code of Ethics, we may, rather than filing a Current Report on Form 8-K, satisfy the disclosure requirement by posting such information on our website, as necessary.
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Introduction
This Compensation Discussion and Analysis outlines the principles underlying our executive compensation policies and decisions as it relates to our named executive officers, or NEOs. Our NEOs and their positions held for the year ended December 31, 2023 were:
•Danny Prosky — Chief Executive Officer and President
•Brian S. Peay — Chief Financial Officer
•Gabriel M. Willhite — Chief Operating Officer
•Stefan K.L. Oh — Chief Investment Officer
•Mark E. Foster — Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary
The Compensation Committee believes that our compensation program for executive officers is an important tool to:
•attract, retain and motivate highly-skilled executives;
•encourage management to balance short-term goals and longer-term objectives without incentivizing excessive risk-taking;
•achieve an appropriate balance between risk and reward that does not incentivize excessive risk-taking; and
•align the interests of management and stockholders through the use of equity-based compensation.
The Compensation Committee applied this philosophy in establishing each of the elements of executive compensation for the fiscal year 2022ended December 31, 2023.
Our Compensation and Governance Practices & Policies
We believe the following practices and policies promote sound compensation governance and are in the best interests of our stockholders and executives:
| | | | | |
| What We Do | What We Don’t Do |
| ✓ Compensation Committee comprised solely of independent directors | x No significant perquisites |
| ✓ Independent compensation consultant | x No minimum guaranteed base salary increases |
| ✓ Significant portion of total compensation in the form of equity awards with long-term vesting | x No tax gross ups to our NEOs |
| ✓ Significant portion of total compensation is based on performance and is not guaranteed | x We have a defined program that does not allow for uncapped bonus payouts |
| ✓ We enhance executive officer retention with time-based, multi-year vesting equity incentive awards | x We do not allow hedging or pledging of our securities |
| ✓ We use multiple performance measures for cash bonuses and multi-year equity awards, which mitigates compensation-related risk | x We do not provide single-trigger change in control cash severance payments |
Determining Compensation for Named Executive Officers
Role of Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors and operates under a written charter. The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining compensation for all of our NEOs including evaluating compensation policies, approving target and actual compensation for executives and administering our equity incentive programs.
Role of Management
Our Chief Executive Officer plays an important role in setting compensation for our other executive officers by assisting the Compensation Committee in evaluating individual goals and objectives and developing compensation recommendations for NEOs other than himself. Final decisions on the design of the compensation program, including total compensation, are ultimately made by the Compensation Committee.
Role of Compensation Consultant
The Compensation Committee is authorized to retain the services of a compensation consultant to be used to assist in the review and establishment of our compensation programs and related policies. For 2023 compensation, at the recommendation of management, the Compensation Committee retained Ferguson Partners Consulting, L.P., or FPC, as its independent compensation consultant to advise it on executive officer and director compensation. FPC did not provide any other services to management. The Compensation Committee believes that there are no conflicts of interest with respect to FPC’s services.
Results of 2023 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
At our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.stockholders, we asked our stockholders to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation paid to our NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2022. Our stockholders showed support for our executive compensation program, with 86.0% of the votes cast approving the advisory resolution. The Compensation Committee did not make any changes to our executive compensation program in response to the 2023 advisory vote on executive compensation.
Item 11. Executive Compensation.Benchmarking and Peer Group Comparisons
The information required by this item is incorporated by referenceCompensation Committee reviews competitive compensation data from a select group of peer companies and broader survey sources. Although comparisons of compensation paid to our definitive proxy statementNEOs relative to compensation paid to similarly situated executives in the survey and by our peers assist the Compensation Committee in determining compensation, the Compensation Committee principally evaluates executive compensation based on corporate objectives and individual performance. Additionally, as part of its engagement, FPC provided the Compensation Committee with comparative market data on the overall compensation program for our executive officers based on an analysis of peer companies. In developing our peer group, the Compensation Committee took into consideration the following characteristics:
•Portfolio size;
•Market capitalization and total capitalization;
•Asset class of portfolio; and
•Pre-listing history (emergence from non-listed REIT market to listed REIT market).
The table set forth below identifies the companies in the peer group used for 2023, which the Compensation Committee considered as part of its analysis in setting compensation for our executive officers. This was the same peer group that was established and used in connection with compensation decisions made at the time of the AHI Acquisition.
| | | | | | | | |
| 2023 Executive Compensation Peer Group |

| Brandywine Realty Trust | Highwood Properties, Inc. | Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. |
| CareTrust REIT, Inc. | LTC Properties, Inc. | Retail Opportunity Investments Corp. |
| Global Medical REIT Inc. | National Health Investors, Inc. | Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. |
| Peakstone Realty Trust | Orion Office REIT, Inc. | Sila Realty Trust, Inc. |
| Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated | Physicians Realty Trust | SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. |
Alignment of Pay and Performance
We maintain a target compensation program that is designed to appropriately align the compensation of our executives with performance. For 2023, approximately 78.6% of our Chief Executive Officer’s target pay was performance-based/at risk and approximately 70.2% of target pay for the remaining NEOs was performance-based/at risk. The pay mix of our executives for 2023 is shown below:
Elements of Compensation
For 2023, our executive compensation program for our NEOs consisted of base salary, a short-term incentive cash bonus and long-term equity incentive awards. The material components of our 2023 executive compensation program are summarized in the following chart:
| | | | | |
| Base Salary | Fixed level of competitive base pay to attract and retain executive talent generally based on scope and complexity of role and responsibilities |
| Short-Term Incentive Program | Designed to reward our NEOs for the achievement of annual corporate performance goals and individual performance goals •Includes 70% (varies by executive officer) of objectively evaluated metrics for corporate performance •Includes 30% (varies by executive officer) of subjectively evaluated strategic goals and individual performance |
| Long-Term Incentive Program | Awarded to encourage retention and alignment with the long-term growth and performance that maximizes stockholder value. 25% of total award is performance-based, and 75% is time-based and subject to the NEO’s continued employment or provision of services |
Base Salary
We provide base salaries to our NEOs to compensate them for services rendered on a day-to-day basis. Base salary is also intended to attract and retain executive officers and is generally based on the scope and complexity of the role and responsibilities, experience, individual performance and contributions, and internal pay equity considerations, taking into account comparable company data provided by our compensation consultant and based upon the Compensation Committee’s understanding of compensation paid to similarly situated executives, adjusted as necessary to recruit or retain specific individuals. The Compensation Committee seeks to target our NEOs’ base salaries at competitive levels to recognize professional growth, success and/or increased responsibilities. We believe that providing a competitive base salary relative to the companies with which we compete for executive talent is a necessary element of a compensation program that is designed to attract and retain talented and experienced executives. We also believe that attractive base salaries can motivate and reward
our executive officers for their overall performance. Base salaries are reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee to assess if adjustments are necessary.
The base salaries for our NEOs for 2023 and 2022 are shown below.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Named Executive Officer | | 2023 Salary | | 2022 Salary | | | % Change |

Short-Term Incentive Program (Cash Bonuses)
As part of our compensation program, our NEOs are entitled to receive an annual cash bonus within a specified range based on a percentage of their base salary. The following table sets forth the threshold (as a percentage of target), target (as a percentage of base salary), and maximum (as a percentage of target) bonus opportunities for each NEO under our annual cash bonus program and used in determining 2023 awards:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Named Executive Officer | | Threshold | | Target | | Maximum |
| Danny Prosky | | 50% | | 100% | | 150% |
| Brian S. Peay | | 50% | | 100% | | 150% |
| Gabriel M. Willhite | | 50% | | 100% | | 150% |
| Stefan K.L. Oh | | 50% | | 75% | | 150% |
| Mark E. Foster | | 50% | | 65% | | 150% |
In determining the size of cash bonus awards, the Compensation Committee, in consultation with FPC, thoroughly reviews our corporate performance and the individual performance of the NEOs. For 2023, individual performance was evaluated subjectively by the Compensation Committee while corporate performance was evaluated objectively, with corporate performance being evaluated against pre-determined performance metrics and hurdles. For 2023, the objective performance metrics included Adjusted EBITDA Growth (excluding grant income), our net debt to adjusted EBITDA and our same-property NOI Growth (as defined below, and excluding grant income), as described further below. Our 2023 performance measures were selected based on a careful assessment of measures that we believe encourage profitable growth and increase shareholder value, while also motivating executives to perform at their highest levels despite interest rate volatility impacting the real estate markets. For 2023, corporate performance was weighted at 70%, and individual performance was weighted 30% for all of our NEOs.
The following table sets forth the performance metrics and goals approved by the Compensation Committee to determine corporate performance:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Metric | | Weighting | | Performance Hurdles | | Actual 2023
Performance | | Target Met |
| | Threshold
(50% Payout) | | Target
(100% Payout) | | Maximum
(150% Payout) | | |
| Adjusted EBITDA Growth | | 40% | | 7.50% | | 8.50% | | 9.00% | | 14.20% | | Maximum |
| Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA | | 30% | | 9.1x | | 8.85x | | 8.6x | | 8.8x | | Target |
| Same-Property NOI Growth | | 30% | | 3.00% | | 4.00% | | 5.00% | | 9.20% | | Maximum |
| | | | | |
| 2023 Performance Metrics | |
| Adjusted EBITDA Growth | •EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. •Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and pursuit costs, gain (loss) on sales of real estate, unrealized foreign currency gain (loss), change in fair value of financial instruments, impairment of real estate assets, lease termination revenue, non-recurring items and adjusted for non-controlling interest. •Adjusted EBITDA Growth is calculated as the percentage increase/(decrease) of current year Adjusted EBITDA less grant income over prior year’s Adjusted EBITDA less grant income. •We use Adjusted EBITDA Growth to measure and assess our earnings growth on an unleveraged basis. Moreover, it is an important and closely followed measure of our performance by the investing community and our stockholders. |
| Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA | •Net Debt is our consolidated short-term and long-term debt less our consolidated total and cash and cash equivalents. •Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and pursuit costs, gain (loss) on sales of real estate, unrealized foreign currency gain (loss), change in fair value of financial instruments, impairment of real estate assets, lease termination revenue, non-recurring items, and adjusted for non-controlling interest. •We believe Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA indicates the strength of our company’s balance sheet and reflects our ability to generate sufficient earnings to service our indebtedness over time. |
| Same-Property NOI Growth | •NOI is defined as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, generated from properties before general and administrative expenses, business acquisition expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, gain or loss on dispositions, impairment of real estate investments, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, income or loss from unconsolidated entities, gain on re-measurement of previously held equity interest, foreign currency gain or loss, other income, and income tax benefit or expense. •Same-Property NOI is NOI from assets held by us for one year or more. •Same-Property NOI Growth is calculated as the percentage increase/(decrease) of current year Same-Property NOI less grant income over prior year’s Same-Property NOI less grant income. •We consider Same-Property NOI Growth to be indicative of the organic growth embedded in our property portfolio, which ordinarily can be an important driver of property values. It also is a metric typically evaluated by investors and analysts and is used by many of our peers to evaluate operating performance. |
To determine individual performance, our Compensation Committee took into consideration the following 2023 key accomplishments by our Named Executive Officers:
| | | | | |
| Named Executive Officer | Key Accomplishments |
| Danny Prosky | •Led our success in reaching or exceeding our targets for EBITDA growth, same-property NOI growth and leverage ratios. •Implemented plans to achieve our overall strategic goals, focusing on maximizing the value of our real estate portfolio and ensuring that each department within our company has the talent and resources necessary to succeed. |

Long-Term Incentive Program (Equity-Based Compensation)
As part of our compensation program, our NEOs are entitled to receive equity-based compensation. To encourage retention and alignment with our long-term growth and performance, 25% of such equity-based awards are performance-based and the remaining 75% of such awards are time-based.
Our NEOs received the following equity awards in 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Equity Awards |
| Named Executive Officer | | Time-Based
RSUs (#) (1) | | Performance-Based
RSUs (#) (2) | | Aggregate Grant Date

| Danny Prosky | | 47,771 | | 15,923 | | 1,999,991 |
| Brian S. Peay | | 20,303 | | 6,767 | | 849,998 |

| Mark E. Foster | | 8,957 | | 2,986 | | 375,010 |
___________
(1) The number of time-based RSUs granted to the NEOs was determined based on the value of the equity awards determined by the Compensation Committee, divided by our estimated net asset value per share of Class T common stock of $31.40 available as of April 2023, rounded to the nearest whole share. These time-based RSUs vest in one-third annual increments, subject to each NEO’s continued service through the applicable vesting date.
(2) The number of performance-based RSUs subject to the award was determined based on the value of the equity awards determined by the Compensation Committee, divided by our net asset value per share of our Class T common stock of $31.40 available as of April 2023, rounded to the nearest whole share.
(3) Reflects the value of the NEOs’ respective equity award determined by the Compensation Committee was based on market data, consultation with FPC, NEO responsibilities and historical compensation practices
The performance-based RSUs will cliff vest in the first quarter of 2026 (subject to continuous employment or provision of services through that vesting date), with the amount of RSUs then vesting to be filed within 120 days afterbased on our Normalized FFO per share ranking over the three-year period ending December 31, 2025 versus a company peer group comprised of: CareTrust REIT, Inc., Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated, LTC Properties Inc., National Health Investors, Inc., Physicians Realty Trust, Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. and Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc., which peer group may be modified at the sole direction of our board or the Compensation Committee prior to the end of fiscal yearthe three-year performance period to reflect changed circumstances such as the merger out of existence or significant portfolio modifications of such companies. Each NEO will vest into 50% of the RSUs subject to this grant if we achieve a “threshold” level of Normalized FFO per share, which is Normalized FFO-per-share performance that is 2.5% less than the peer group’s Normalized FFO-per-share performance (with no RSUs vesting if our Normalized FFO-per-share performance is worse than this amount); 100% of the RSUs if we achieve “target” performance, which is Normalized FFO-per-share performance equal to the peer group’s Normalized FFO-per-share performance; and 200% of the RSUs if we achieve “maximum” performance, which is Normalized FFO-per-share performance that is 2.5% or greater than the peer group’s Normalized FFO-per-share performance. There will be linear interpolation between Normalized FFO-per-share performance levels.
The following chart illustrates the terms of the 2023 performance-based award to the NEOs:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
25% of
LTIP | Performance-
Based Restricted
Stock Units | | Normalized FFO per Share | Payout % |
| Threshold | 2.5% Less than Peer Group | 50% |
| Target | Equal to Peer Group | 100% |
| Maximum | 2.5% Greater than Peer Group | 200% |
In 2023, the performance measure used for the Long-Term Incentive Program was Normalized FFO compared to modified FFO attributable to controlling interest, or Modified FFO, in 2022 to adopt a performance measure more closely aligned with that of our publicly listed REIT peers.
See Part III, Item 11, Executive Compensation — Executive Compensation Tables — 2023 Option Exercises and Stock Vested, for more information.
Risk Mitigation
Our executive compensation program is designed to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and reward that does not incentivize excessive risk-taking. Our Compensation Committee, in conjunction with FPC, conducts an annual risk assessment of our executive compensation program. As noted above, the Compensation Committee oversees, among other things, the assessment and management of risks related to our incentive compensation plans and equity-based incentive plan generally and whether our incentive compensation arrangements encourage excessive risk taking. We believe that our annual cash bonus program and equity compensation program contain appropriate risk mitigation factors, as summarized below:
•balance of short-term and long-term incentives through annual cash bonuses and long-term equity compensation;
•a substantial portion of total compensation is in the form of long-term equity awards;
•a substantial portion of total compensation is based on achievement of performance objectives, through a combination of annual or multi-year performance. Furthermore, we incorporate both absolute and relative metrics by which to assess our performance;
•three-year vesting based on continued service as of the vesting date; and
•prohibition against hedging or pledging transactions.
Other Plans, Perquisites and Personal Benefits
Each of our NEOs is eligible to participate in our Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan, or our severance plan, as described below, and all of our compensatory and benefit plans on the same basis as our other employees. We provide an employer 50.0% matching contribution under our 401(k) profit sharing plan up to 5.0% of a participating employee’s contribution, including our NEO’s, taxable compensation, up to the Internal Revenue Service limitations for matching contributions.
Tax and Accounting Considerations
We have not provided or agreed to provide any of our executive officers or directors with a gross-up or other reimbursement for tax amounts they might pay pursuant to Section 4999 or Section 409A of the Code. Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code provide that executive officers, directors who hold significant stockholder interests, and certain other service providers could be subject to significant additional taxes if they receive payments or benefits in connection with a change in control of us that exceed certain limits, and that we or our successor could lose a deduction on the amounts subject to the additional taxes. Section 409A also imposes additional significant taxes on the individual in the event that an employee, director or service provider receives “deferred compensation” that does not meet the requirements of Section 409A.
Hedging Practices
Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits our directors and executive officers from entering into hedging or monetization transactions or similar arrangements with respect to our securities.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The Compensation Committee is currently composed of the independent directors listed as signatories to the below Compensation Committee Report. During 2023:
•none of our executive officers were a director of another entity where one of that entity’s executive officers served on the Compensation Committee;
•no member of the Compensation Committee was formerly an officer or employee of us or any of our subsidiaries;
•no member of the Compensation Committee entered into any transaction with us in which the amount involved exceeded $120,000;
•none of our executive officers served on the compensation committee of any entity where one of that entity’s executive officers served on the Compensation Committee; and
•none of our executive officers served on the compensation committee of another entity where one of that entity’s executive officers served as a director on our board.
Option/SAR Grants in Last Fiscal Year
No option grants were made to our officers or directors for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Compensation Committee Report
The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the information required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K and contained in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and, based on such review and discussions, recommended to our board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

___________
(1) Represents amount paid under the short-term incentive program for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, with the portion in the Bonus column reflecting the individual component of the 2023 short-term incentive program and the portion in the Non-Equity Incentive Compensation column representing the formulaic payout based on the achievement of pre-established performance goals. See Part III, Item 11, Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Elements of Compensation — Short-Term Incentive Program (Cash Bonuses) for more information.
(2) The time-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs were awarded and granted in April 2023 under our incentive plan. The performance-based RSUs are calculated assuming target achievement (the most probable outcome at the time of grant) of the underlying performance condition at the time of grant. Assuming maximum achievement of the underlying performance condition at the time of grant, the grant date fair value of the 2023 performance-based RSUs granted to the NEOs would be as follows: Mr. Prosky, $999,964; Mr. Peay, $424,968; Mr. Willhite, $424,968; Mr. Oh, $200,018; and Mr. Foster, $187,521. See Part III, Item 11, Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Elements of Compensation — Long-Term Incentive Program (Equity-Based Compensation) for additional information regarding these awards.
(3) Amounts in the “All other compensation” column consist of the following payments we paid to or on behalf of the NEOs:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Name | | 401(k) Contributions ($) | | Distributions Paid on Awards ($) |
| Danny Prosky | | 7,979 | | 77,210 |
| Brian S. Peay | | 7,975 | | 50,626 |
| Gabriel M. Willhite | | 8,013 | | 44,396 |
| Stefan K.L. Oh | | 8,033 | | 33,770 |
| Mark E. Foster | | 7,242 | | 10,023 |
(4) Mr. Willhite transitioned from his position as Executive Vice President, General Counsel to Chief Operating Officer, effective August 1, 2022; therefore, the amount of Mr. Willhite’s 2022 salary is based on the two positions he held in 2022.
(5) Mr. Foster was appointed as our Executive Vice President, General Counsel effective August 1, 2022, therefore his 2022 salary is pro-rated and he did not receive any compensation in 2021.

(2) Represents performance-based RSUs that will cliff vest in the first quarter of 2026 (subject to continuous employment or provision of services through that vesting date), with the amount of RSUs then vesting to be based on our relative Normalized FFO per share ranking over the three-year period ending December 31, 2025 versus a company peer group. The grant date fair value was measured based on the achievement of Normalized FFO per share performance at the target level (the most probable outcome as of the grant date), multiplied by our estimated net asset value per share of Class T common stock in effect on the grant date of $31.40.
(3) Represents time-based RSUs determined based on the value of the equity awards determined by the Compensation Committee, divided by our estimated net asset value per share of Class T common stock of $31.40 available as of April 2023, rounded to the nearest whole share. These time-based RSUs will vest in equal annual installments, with the first one-third installment vesting on April 3, 2024, the second one-third installment vesting on April 3, 2025 and the final
one-third installment vesting on April 3, 2026 (subject to continuous employment or provision of services through each vesting date).

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
We adopted our severance plan for the purpose of providing severance and change-of-control protections to certain key employees, including our NEOs. As described below, our severance plan provides our NEOs with, among other things, base salary, bonus and certain other payments at, following and/or in connection with certain terminations of employment or a change in control involving us. As used below, the terms “Cause,” “Change in Control,” “Disability” and “Good Reason” shall have the respective meanings set forth in our severance plan.
Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason
Under our severance plan, in the event a participant is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason, such participant will be entitled to receive the following, including any accrued obligations entitled to such participant:
•a severance payment in an amount equal to: (1) 2.0 if the participant is our Chief Executive Officer, 1.5 if the participant is our Executive Chairman, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Head of Acquisitions/Chief Investment Officer or General Counsel, or 1.0 if the participant holds another position; multiplied by (2) the sum of: (a) such participant’s base salary, plus (b) such participant’s average cash bonus for the three most recent years completed prior to the termination, payable in equal installments in accordance with our normal payroll practices, commencing 60 days following the termination date;

•any retention equity grants granted to the participant that are unvested as of the termination date shall vest and, if applicable, become exercisable and any other unvested restricted stock or other equity awards issued to the participant under our incentive plan or otherwise by us that are outstanding on the termination date and that vest solely based on the passage of time, or, each, a Time-Based Award, shall vest and become exercisable, if applicable, as to the number of shares subject to such award that would have vested over the 12-month period following the termination date had the participant remained employed; and
•any performance-based vesting award issued to the participant under our incentive plan or otherwise by us, or, each, a Performance-Based Award, that remains outstanding on the termination date shall remain outstanding and eligible to be earned following the completion of the performance period based on the actual achievement of applicable performance goals, and to the extent earned (if at all) shall vest on a pro rata basis based on the number of days the participant remained employed from the commencement of the performance period through the termination date.
Change in Control Followed by Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason
In the event a Change in Control occurs:
•any Time-Based Award that is then outstanding shall vest and, if applicable, become exercisable immediately prior to the Change in Control subject to the participant’s continued employment until immediately prior to such Change in Control;
•any Performance-Based Award that is then outstanding and that is not continued, converted, assumed or replaced with a substantially similar award by us or a successor entity in connection with the Change in Control (in each case, such award being considered assumed, or Assumed), shall vest and, if applicable, become exercisable immediately prior to the Change in Control based on actual achievement of the applicable performance goals through the date of the Change in Control, as determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee prior to consummation of the Change in Control; and
•if, during the period beginning on the date of the Change in Control and continuing through the twelve (12) month period following such Change in Control, a participant is terminated without Cause (other than by reason of the death or Disability of such participant) or a participant resigns for Good Reason, such participant shall be entitled to receive each of the following, including any accrued obligations entitled to such participant:
◦a Change in Control severance payment, in an amount equal to: (1) 2.5 if the participant is our Chief Executive Officer, or 2.0 if the participant is not our Chief Executive Officer; multiplied by (2) the sum of: (a) the participant’s base salary; plus (b) the participant’s average cash bonus for the three most recent years completed prior to the termination, which amount shall be paid to the participant in a lump sum within 60 days following the termination date;
◦continuing medical coverage or a corresponding payment as described under “—Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason”; and
◦any Performance-Based Award that was Assumed in connection with such Change in Control and that remains unvested on the termination date shall, to the extent such award remains subject to performance-based vesting as of the termination date, remain outstanding and eligible to be earned following the completion of the performance period based on the actual achievement of applicable performance goals, and to the extent earned (if at all) shall vest on a pro rata basis based on the number of days the participant remained employed from the commencement of the performance period through the termination date.
Termination Other Than Without Cause or Resignation Other Than for Good Reason
In the event that a participant is terminated for any reason other than as set forth above, such participant shall be entitled to receive from us the accrued obligations entitled to such participant and, if such termination is due to the participant’s death or Disability: (1) an amount equal to 0.5 multiplied by such participant’s base salary, which amount shall be paid to the participant (or, if applicable, the participant’s beneficiary or to such participant’s estate, if a participant fails to make a beneficiary designation), in equal installments in accordance with our normal payroll practices for a period of six months after the termination date starting within 60 days following the termination date; (2) the participant’s annual cash performance bonus for the year in which the termination date occurs, as determined by the Compensation Committee based on target performance for the performance period and pro-rated for the number of days from the performance period commencement to the termination date, payable at its normal time (but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the termination date occurs); (3) all unvested Time-Based Awards shall vest and become exercisable, if applicable, as to the number of shares subject to such award that would have vested (and become exercisable) over the 12-month period following the termination date had the participant remained employed; and (4) any Performance-Based Awards shall remain outstanding and eligible to be earned following the completion of the performance period based on the actual achievement of applicable performance goals and, to the extent earned (if at all), shall vest on a pro rata basis based on the number of days the participant remained employed from the commencement of the performance period through the termination date.

(1) Represents the cost of medical insurance coverage for each NEO at the same annual level as in effect immediately preceding December 31, 2023 for a period of time equal to the applicable multiple set forth in our severance plan. Such amounts are paid in equal installments over an annual period equal to the respective severance multiple (i.e., 2.5 years, 2 years, 1.5 years or 1 year). A lesser amount may be due if the NEO becomes eligible to receive healthcare coverage from a subsequent employer.
Listing Equity Awards
Our board granted 625,926 shares of restricted common stock to our NEOs pursuant to our incentive plan upon completion of the 2024 Offering, or the Listing Equity Awards. The Listing Equity Awards vest ratably over four years and are subject to continuous service through the vesting dates.
CEO Pay Ratio
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, presented below is the ratio of annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, to the annual total compensation of our median employee (excluding our CEO). The ratio presented below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
To identify the “median employee” from our employee population, we determined the annual total compensation of each of our employees as of December 31, 2023 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K. We annualized base wages of any permanent employees who were employed for less than the full year or on unpaid leave during 2023, and we did not otherwise annualize or make any cost-of-living or other adjustments to employee compensation. Our employee population, including all full- and part-time employees, as of December 31, 2023 consisted of approximately 108 individuals, all of whom were located in the United States.
For 2023, our last completed fiscal year, annual total compensation as determined under Item 402 of Regulation S-K for our CEO was $3,784,680, as disclosed on page 95.The 2023 annual meetingtotal compensation as determined under Item 402 of stockholders.Regulation S-K for our median employee was $122,976. Based on this information, the ratio of our CEO's annual total compensation to our median employee's annual total compensation for fiscal year 2023 is 30.8 to 1. The SEC's rules for calculating the required pay ratio permit companies to use reasonable estimates and assumptions in their methodologies, and companies have different employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, pay ratios reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above.
Director Compensation
If a director is also one of our employees, we do not pay any additional compensation to that person for services rendered as a director. Our director compensation program is designed with the goals of attracting and retaining highly qualified individuals to serve as directors and to fairly compensate them for their time and efforts. In 2023, our board reviewed and approved the director compensation program adjustments described below after considering input from FPC (as defined below), the independent compensation consultant retained by the Compensation Committee to advise on executive officer and director compensation. For the year ended December 31, 2023, our independent directors received the following forms of compensation:
| | | | | |
| Type of fee | 2023 Amount |

| Annual Cash Retainer | |
•All non-employee directors | •$85,000 annually, paid quarterly |

•Additional Non-Executive Chairman of the Board fee | •$100,000 annually, paid quarterly |

| Other Compensation | •Reimbursement of out-of- pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at Board meetings or Board Committee meetings. Such reimbursement is paid monthly. Our independent directors do not receive other benefits from us. |

In connection with the Merger, we assumed from GAHR III the Registration Rights Agreement and GAHR III’s obligations thereunder in their entirety. In connection with the 2024 Offering, the Holders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) have agreed that, without prior written consent of the representatives on behalf of the underwriters of the 2024 Offering, during the period ending 180 days after the enddate of fiscal year 2022listing of our common stock for trading on a national securities exchange, they will not, and will not publicly disclose an intention to, directly or indirectly, among others, subject to certain exceptions, exercise their registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement.
Related Party Transactions Policy and Procedures
Related party transactions are transactions in which we are a participant where the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a member of our board, an executive officer, or a holder of more than 5.0% of our voting securities (or an immediate family member of any of the foregoing) has a direct or indirect material interest. We have adopted a written statement of policy regarding transactions with related parties. Our related party transaction policy requires all “related party transactions” to be promptly disclosed to our General Counsel. All related party transactions must be approved or ratified by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. As a general rule, directors interested in a related party transaction will recuse themselves from any discussion or vote on a related party transaction in which they have an interest. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider all relevant facts and circumstances when deliberating such transactions, including whether such transactions are in our best interests.
The following is a summary of certain related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements which are described under Part II, Item 11, Executive Compensation.
Indemnification Agreements
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the maximum extent permitted under Maryland law and our charter against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified upon our receipt of certain affirmations and undertakings. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors or executive officers, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable.
There is currently no pending material litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, or employees for which indemnification is sought.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of American Healthcare REIT, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American Healthcare REIT, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”"Company") as of December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss),loss, equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022,2023, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”"financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022,2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’sCompany's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’sCompany's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets relating to real estate investments, net — Refer to NoteNotes 2 and 3 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company periodically evaluates long-lived assets, primarily consisting of investments in real estate that are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company considers the following indicators, among others, in its evaluation of impairment:
•Significant negative industry or economic trends;
•A significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; and
•A significant change in the extent or manner in which the asset is used or significant physical change in the asset.
If indicators of impairment of long-lived assets are present, the Company evaluates the carrying value of the related real estate investment in relation to the future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying operations. In performing this evaluation, the Company considers market conditions and the Company’s current intentions with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. The Company adjusts the net book value of properties it leases to others and other long-lived assets to fair value if the sum of
the expected future undiscounted cash flows, including sales proceeds, is less than carrying value. The Company recognizes an impairment loss at the time any such determination is made.
We identified the determinationimpairment of impairment indicators for real estate investments as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management makes when determining whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred indicating thatto evaluate the carrying amountsrecoverability of real estate assets may not be recoverable.investments. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort when performing audit procedures to evaluate whether management appropriately identified impairment indicators.the reasonableness of significant estimates and assumptions related to future revenues and terminal capitalization rates within management’s undiscounted future cash flow analysis.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the evaluation of real estate investments, net for possible indications of impairment included the following, among others:
•Obtained independent market data to determine if there wereWe evaluated the design and implementation of controls over impairment of real estate investments, including those over identifying impairment indicators, and the determination of forecasted undiscounted cash flows including terminal capitalization rates for real estate investments.
•For real estate investments where indicators of impairment not identifiedwere determined to be present, we tested management’s undiscounted cash flow models by management.(1) evaluating the source information used by management, (2) testing the mathematical accuracy of the undiscounted cash flow models, and (3) evaluating management’s significant assumptions using independently obtained market data.
•Determined whether there are adverse qualitative or quantitative asset-specific conditions, which may indicate that an other than temporary impairment exists.With the assistance of our internal fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the significant estimates and assumptions including future revenues and terminal capitalization rates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 2023, 2022 2021 and 20202021
The use of the words “we,” “us” or “our” refers to Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc., or GAHR III, and its subsidiaries, including Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, for periods prior to the Merger, as defined below, and American Healthcare REIT, Inc. (formerly known as Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc., or GAHR IV) and its subsidiaries, including American Healthcare REIT Holdings, LP, (formerly known as Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP), for periods following the Merger, except where otherwise noted. Certain historical information of GAHR IV is included for background purposes.
1. Organization and Description of Business
Overview and Background
American Healthcare REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, is a self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, that acquires, owns and operates a diversified portfolio of clinical healthcare real estate properties, focusing primarily on outpatient medical office buildings, or MOBs, senior housing, skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs, hospitals and other healthcare-related facilities. We also operate healthcare-related facilities utilizing the structure permitted by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007, which is commonly referred to as a “RIDEA” structure (the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, authorizing the RIDEA structure were enacted as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008). Our healthcare facilities operated under a RIDEA structure include our senior housing operating properties, or SHOP, and our integrated senior health campuses. We have originated and acquired secured loans and may also originate and acquire other real estate-related investments on an infrequent and opportunistic basis. We generally seek investments that produce current income; however, we have selectively developed, and may continue to selectively develop, healthcare real estate properties. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We believe that we have been organized and operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code.
Merger ofOn October 1, 2021, Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. and Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc.
On October 1, 2021, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 23, 2021,, or the Merger Agreement, GAHR III, merged with and into Continentala wholly-owned subsidiary, or Merger Sub, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company and newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc., or GAHR IV, or Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving company, orwhich we refer to as the REIT Merger. On October 1, 2021, also pursuant to the Merger, Agreement,and our operating partnership, Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership and subsidiary and operating partnership of GAHR IV, or GAHR IV Operating Partnership, merged with and into Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, or our operating partnership,the Surviving Partnership, with our operating partnershipthe Surviving Partnership being the surviving entity, or the Partnership Merger. We collectivelywhich we refer to the REIT Merger andas the Partnership Merger asand, together with the REIT Merger, the Merger. Following the Merger on October 1, 2021, our company, or the Combined Company, was renamed American Healthcare REIT, Inc. and our operating partnership, also referred to as the surviving partnership,Surviving Partnership was renamed American Healthcare REIT Holdings, LP. The REIT Merger was intended to qualify as a reorganization under, and within the meaning of, Section 368(a) of the Code. As a result of and at the effective time of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of GAHR III and GAHR IV Operating Partnership ceased.
AHI AcquisitionLP, or our operating partnership.
Also on October 1, 2021, immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, GAHR III acquired a newly formed entity, American Healthcare Opps Holdings, LLC, or NewCo, which we refer to as the AHI Acquisition, pursuant to a contribution and exchange agreement dated June 23, 2021, or the Contribution Agreement, between GAHR III; our operating partnership; American Healthcare Investors, LLC, or AHI; Griffin Capital Company, LLC, or Griffin Capital; Platform Healthcare Investor T-II, LLC; Flaherty Trust; and Jeffrey T. Hanson, the non-executive Chairman of our board of directors, or our board, Danny Prosky, our Chief Executive Officer, President and President,director, and Mathieu B. Streiff, one of our directors, or collectively, the AHI Principals. NewCo owned substantially all of the business and operations of AHI, as well as all of the equity interests in (i) Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV Advisor, LLC, or GAHR IV Advisor, a subsidiary of AHI that served as the external advisor of GAHR IV, and (ii) Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Advisor, LLC, or GAHR III Advisor, also referred to as our former advisor, a subsidiary of AHI that served as the external advisor of GAHR III.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, AHI contributed substantially all of its business and operations to the surviving partnership, including its interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor, and Griffin Capital contributed its then-current ownership interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor to the surviving partnership. In exchange for these contributions, the surviving partnership issued limited partnership units, or OP units. Subject to working capital and other customary adjustments, the total approximate value of these OP units at the time of consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, and prior to the reverse stock split, was approximately $131,674,000, with a reference value for purposes thereof of $8.71 per OP unit, such that the surviving partnership issued 15,117,529 OP units as consideration, or the Closing Date Consideration. Following the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition, the Combined Company became self-managed. See “Operating Partnership and Former Advisor” below for a further discussion. Such OP units were owned by AHI Group Holdings, LLC, or AHI Group Holdings, which is owned and controlled by the AHI Principals, Platform Healthcare Investor TII, LLC, Flaherty Trust and a wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital, or collectively, the NewCo Sellers.
The AHI Acquisition was treated as a business combination for accounting purposes, with GAHR III as both the legal and accounting acquiror of NewCo. While GAHR IV was the legal acquiror of GAHR III in the REIT Merger, GAHR III was determined to be the accounting acquiror in the REIT Merger in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 805, Business Combinations, or ASC Topic 805 after considering the relative share ownership and the composition of the governing body of the Combined Company. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects results of the Combined Company, and the financial information set forth herein prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects GAHR III’s results. For this reason, period to period comparisons may not be meaningful.
See Note 4, Business Combinations — 2021 Business Combinations, for a further discussion of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition.
Operating Partnership and Former Advisor
We conduct substantially all of our operations through our operating partnership, and we are the sole general partner of our operating partnership. As of both December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, we owned an approximately 95.0% and 94.9% generalof the operating partnership interest therein, respectively,units, or OP units, in our operating partnership, and the remaining 5.0% and 5.1%, respectively, waslimited OP units were owned by the NewCo Sellers.
Through September 30,Sellers, as defined in Note 4, Business Combinations — 2021 we were externally advised by our former advisor pursuant to an advisory agreement, as amended, or the Advisory Agreement, between us and our former advisor. Our former advisor, subject to the oversight and review of our board, provided asset management, property management, acquisition, disposition and other advisory services on our behalf consistent with our investment policies and objectives. Following the Merger and the AHI Acquisition, we became self-managed and are no longer externally advised. As a result, any fees that would have otherwise been payable to our former advisor are no longer being paid to a third party. Upon consummation of the AHI Acquisition, we redeemed all 51 limited partnership units that our former advisor held in our operating partnership, as well as all 52 limited partnership units held by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV Operating Partnership. Also, on October 1, 2021 and in connection with the AHI Acquisition, our operating partnership redeemed all 5,148 shares of our common stock owned by our former advisor and all 5,208 shares of our Class T common stock owned by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV.
Prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition, our former advisor was 75.0% owned and managed by wholly owned subsidiaries of AHI, and 25.0% owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital, or collectively, our former co-sponsors. Prior to the AHI Acquisition, AHI was 47.1% owned by AHI Group Holdings, 45.1% indirectly owned by DigitalBridge Group, Inc. (NYSE: DBRG), or DigitalBridge, and 7.8% owned by James F. Flaherty III. We were not affiliated with Griffin Capital, DigitalBridge or Mr. Flaherty; however, we were affiliated with our former advisor, AHI and AHI Group Holdings.

COVID-19
Our residents, tenants, operating partners and managers, our industry and the U.S. economy continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. While the COVID 19 pandemic is subsiding, the timing and extent of the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is dependent upon many factors, including the emergence and severity of COVID-19 variants, the effectiveness and frequency of booster vaccinations and the duration and implications of restrictions and safety measures. As the lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic is still impacting the healthcare system to a certain extent, it continues to present challenges for us as an owner and operator of healthcare facilities, making it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on real estate markets in which we own and/or operate properties and our portfolio of investments.
We have evaluated the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business thus far and incorporated information concerning such impacts into our assessments of liquidity, impairment and collectability from tenants and residents as of December 31, 2022. We will continue to monitor such impacts and will adjust our estimates and assumptions based on the best available information.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding our accompanying consolidated financial statements. Such consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto are the representations of our management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing our accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
Our accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our operating partnership, the wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiaries of our operating partnership and all non-wholly owned subsidiaries in which we have control, as well as any VIEs, in which we are the primary beneficiary. The portion of equity in any subsidiary that is not wholly owned by us is presented in our accompanying consolidated financial statements as a noncontrolling interest. We evaluate our ability to control an entity, and whether the entity is a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary, by considering substantive terms of the arrangement and identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance.

our common stock and a corresponding reverse split of the OP units, or the Reverse Splits. All numbers of common shares and per share data, as well as the OP units, in our accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to the Reverse Splits.We operate and intend to continue to operate in an umbrella partnership REIT structure in which our operating partnership, or wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiaries of our operating partnership and all non-wholly owned subsidiaries of which we have control will own substantially all of the interests in properties acquired on our behalf. We are the sole general partner of our operating partnership and as of both December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, we owned an approximatelya 95.0% and 94.9% general partnership interest therein, respectively, and the remaining 5.0% and 5.1%, respectively,limited partnership interest was owned by the NewCo Sellers. Prior to the Merger, we owned greater than a 99.99% general partnership interestSellers, as defined in our operating partnership and our former advisor was a limited partner that owned less than a 0.01% noncontrolling limited partnership interest in our operating partnership.Note 4, Business Combinations — 2021 Business Combinations.
The accounts of our operating partnership are consolidated in our accompanying consolidated financial statements because we are the sole general partner of our operating partnership and have unilateral control over its management and major operating decisions (even if additional limited partners are admitted to our operating partnership). All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of our consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
to, the initial and recurring valuation of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed through property acquisitions including through business combinations, goodwill and its impairment, revenues and grant income, allowance for credit losses, impairment of long-lived and intangible assets and contingencies. These estimates are made and evaluated on an on-going basis using information that is currently available as well as various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates, perhaps in material adverse ways, and those estimates could be different under different assumptions or conditions.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents consist of all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Restricted cash primarily comprises lender required accounts for property taxes, tenant improvements, capital improvements and insurance, which are restricted as to use or withdrawal.
Leases
Lessee: We determine if a contract is a lease upon inception of the lease and maintain a distinction between finance and operating leases. Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 842, Leases, or ASC Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize the following for all leases with terms greater than 12 months at the commencement date: (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease; and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The lease liability is calculated by using either the implicit rate of the lease or the incremental borrowing rate. The accretion of lease liabilities and amortization expense on right-of-use assets for our operating leases are included in rental expenses, property operating expenses or general and administrative expenses in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. Operating lease liabilities are calculated using our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available as of the lease commencement date.
For our finance leases, the accretion of lease liabilities are included in interest expense and the amortization expense on right-of-use assets are included in depreciation and amortization in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. Further, finance lease assets are included within real estate investments, net and finance lease liabilities are included within financing obligations in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Lessor: Pursuant to ASC Topic 842, lessors bifurcate lease revenues into lease components and non-lease components and separately recognize and disclose non-lease components that are executory in nature. Lease components continue to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and certain non-lease components may be accounted for under the revenue recognition guidance in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, or ASC Topic 606. See the “Revenue Recognition” section below. ASC Topic 842 also provides for a practical expedient package that permits lessors to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. In addition, such practical expedient causes an entity to assess whether a contract is predominately leaselease- or service based,service-based, and recognize the revenue from the entire contract under the relevant accounting guidance. We recognize revenue for our MOBs, senior housing, SNFsOM buildings and hospitalstriple-net leased properties segments as real estate revenue. Minimum annual rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
the related lease (including rent holidays). Differences between real estate revenue recognized and cash amounts contractually due from tenants under the lease agreements are recorded to deferred rent receivable, which is included in other assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Tenant reimbursement revenue, which comprises additional amounts recoverable from tenants for common area maintenance expenses and certain other recoverable expenses, are considered non-lease components and variable lease payments. We qualified for and elected the practical expedient as outlined above to combine the non-lease component with the lease component, which is the predominant component, and therefore the non-lease component is recognized as part of real estate revenue. In addition, as lessors, we exclude certain lessor costs (i.e., property taxes and insurance) paid directly by a lessee to third parties on our behalf from our measurement of variable lease revenue and associated expense (i.e., no gross up of revenue and expense for these costs); and include lessor costs that we paid and are reimbursed by the lessee in our measurement of variable lease revenue and associated expense (i.e., gross up revenue and expense for these costs).
At our RIDEA facilities, we offer residents room and board (lease component), standard meals and healthcare services (non-lease component) and certain ancillary services that are not contemplated in the lease with each resident (i.e., laundry, guest meals, etc.). For our RIDEA facilities, we recognize revenue under ASC Topic 606 as resident fees and services, based on our predominance assessment from electing the practical expedient outlined above. See the “Revenue Recognition” section below.

Revenue Recognition
Real Estate Revenue
We recognize real estate revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 842. See the “Leases” section above.
Resident Fees and Services Revenue
We recognize resident fees and services revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606. A significant portion of resident fees and services revenue represents healthcare service revenue that is reported at the amount that we expect to be entitled to in exchange for providing patient care. These amounts are due from patients, third-party payors (including health insurers and government programs), other healthcare facilities, and others and includes variable consideration for retroactive revenue adjustments due to settlement of audits, reviews, and investigations. Generally, we bill the patients, third-party payors and other healthcare facilities several days after the services are performed. Revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. Consistent with healthcare industry accounting practices, any changes to these governmental revenue estimates are recorded in the period the change or adjustment becomes known based on final settlement. Any differences between recorded revenues and subsequent adjustments are reflected in operations in the year finalized.
Performance obligations are determined based on the nature of the services provided by us. Revenue for performance obligations satisfied over time is recognized based on actual charges incurred in relation to total expected (or actual) charges. This method provides a depiction of the transfer of services over the term of the performance obligation based on the inputs needed to satisfy the obligation. Generally, performance obligations satisfied over time relate to patients receiving long-term healthcare services, including rehabilitation services. We measure the performance obligation from admission into the facility to the point when we are no longer required to provide services to that patient. Revenue for performance obligations satisfied at a point in time is recognized when goods or services are provided and we do not believe we are required to provide additional goods or services to the patient. Generally, performance obligations satisfied at a point in time relate to sales of our pharmaceuticals business or to sales of ancillary supplies.
Because all of our performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of less than one year, we have elected to apply the optional exemption provided in ASC Topic 606 and, therefore, are not required to disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period. The performance obligations for these contracts are generally completed within months of the end of the reporting period.
We determine the transaction price based on standard charges for goods and services provided, reduced, where applicable, by contractual adjustments provided to third-party payors, implicit price concessions provided to uninsured patients, and estimates of goods to be returned. We also determine the estimates of contractual adjustments based on Medicare and Medicaid pricing tables and historical experience. We determine the estimate of implicit price concessions based on the historical collection experience with each class of payor.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Agreements with third-party payors typically provide for payments at amounts less than established charges. The following is a summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors:
•Medicare: Certain healthcare services are paid at prospectively determined rates based on cost-reimbursement methodologies subject to certain limits.
•Medicaid: Reimbursements for Medicaid services are generally paid at prospectively determined rates. In the state of Indiana, we participate in an Upper Payment Limit program, or IGT, with various county hospital partners, which provides supplemental Medicaid payments to SNFs that are licensed to non-state, government-owned entities such as county hospital districts. We have operational responsibility through management agreements for facilities retained by the county hospital districts including this IGT. The licenses and management agreements between the nursing center division and hospital districts are terminable by either party to restore the previous licensed status.
•Other: Payment agreements with certain commercial insurance carriers, health maintenance organizations and preferred provider organizations provide for payment using prospectively determined rates per discharge, discounts from established charges and prospectively determined periodic rates.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Laws and regulations concerning government programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, are complex and subject to varying interpretation. As a result of investigations by governmental agencies, various healthcare organizations have received requests for information and notices regarding alleged noncompliance with those laws and regulations, which, in some instances, have resulted in organizations entering into significant settlement agreements. Compliance with such laws and regulations may also be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action, including fines, penalties and potential exclusion from the related programs. There can be no assurance that regulatory authorities will not challenge our compliance with these laws and regulations, and it is not possible to determine the impact such claims or penalties would have upon us, if any.
Settlements with third-party payors for retroactive adjustments due to audits, reviews or investigations are considered variable consideration and are included in the determination of the estimated transaction price for providing patient care. These settlements are estimated based on the terms of the payment agreement with the payor, correspondence from the payor and our historical settlement activity, including an assessment to ensure that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the retroactive adjustment is subsequently resolved. Estimated settlements are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known (that is, new information becomes available), or as years are settled or are no longer subject to such audits, reviews and investigations. Adjustments arising from a change in the transaction price were not significant for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 2021 and 2020.2021.
Disaggregation of Resident Fees and Services Revenue
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers according to lines of business and payor classes. The transfer of goods and services may occur at a point in time or over time; in other words, revenue may be recognized over the course of the underlying contract, or may occur at a single point in time based upon a single transfer of control. This distinction is discussed in further detail below. We determine that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Financing Component
We have elected a practical expedient allowed under ASC Topic 606 and, therefore, we do not adjust the promised amount of consideration from patients and third-party payors for the effects of a significant financing component due to our expectation that the period between the time the service is provided to a patient and the time that the patient or a third-party payor pays for that service will be one year or less.
Contract Costs
We have applied the practical expedient provided by FASB ASC Topic 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs, and, therefore, all incremental customer contract acquisition costs are expensed as they are incurred since the amortization period of the asset that we otherwise would have recognized is one year or less in duration.
Resident and Tenant Receivables and Allowances
Resident receivables, which are related to resident fees and services revenue, are carried net of an allowance for credit losses. An allowance is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of residents and payors to meet the contractual obligations under their lease or service agreements. Substantially all of such allowances are recorded as direct reductions of resident fees and services revenue as contractual adjustments provided to third-party payors or implicit price concessions in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. Our determination of the adequacy of these allowances is based primarily upon evaluations of historical loss experience, the residents’ financial condition, security deposits, cash collection patterns by payor and by state, current economic conditions, future expectations in estimating credit losses and other relevant factors. Tenant receivables, which are related to real estate revenue, and unbilled deferred rent receivables are reduced for uncollectible amounts where collectability is not probable, which are recognized as direct reductions of real estate revenue in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss.
AsThe following is a summary of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had $14,071,000 and $12,378,000, respectively, inour adjustments to allowances which were determined necessary to reduce receivables by our expected future credit losses.

Real Estate Investments Purchase Price Allocation
Upon the acquisition of real estate properties or entities owning real estate properties, we determine whether the transaction is a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. If the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are not a business, we account for the transaction as an asset acquisition. Under both methods, we recognize the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed; however, for a transaction accounted for as an asset acquisition, we capitalize transaction costs and allocate the purchase price using a relative fair value method allocating all accumulated costs, whereas for a transaction accounted for as a business combination, we immediately expense transaction costs incurred associated with the business combination and allocate the purchase price based on the estimated fair value of each separately identifiable asset and liability. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, our investment transactions were accounted for as asset acquisitions or as business combinations, as applicable. For the year ended December 31, 2020, all of our investment transactions were accounted for as asset acquisitions. See Note 3, Real Estate Investments, Net — AcquisitionAcquisitions of Real Estate Investments, and Note 4, Business Combinations, for a further discussion.
We, with assistance from independent valuation specialists, measure the fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets and liabilities, as applicable, based on their respective fair values for acquired properties. Our method for allocating the purchase price to acquired investments in real estate requires us to make subjective assessments for determining fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This includes determining the value of the buildings, land, leasehold interests, furniture, fixtures and equipment, above- or below-market rent, in-place leases, master leases, tenant improvements, above- or below-market debt assumed, derivative financial instruments assumed, and noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, if any. These estimates require significant judgment and in some cases involve complex calculations. These allocation assessments directly impact our results of operations, as amounts allocated to certain assets and liabilities have different depreciation or amortization

lives. In addition, we amortize the value assigned to above- or below-market rent as a component of revenue, unlike in-place leases and other intangibles, which we include in depreciation and amortization in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss.
The determination of the fair value of land is based upon comparable sales data. In cases where a leasehold interest in the land is acquired, only the above/below market consideration is necessary where the value of the leasehold interest is determined by discounting the difference between the contract ground lease payments and a market ground lease payment back to a present value as of the acquisition date. The fair value of buildings is based upon our determination of the value under two methods: one, as if it were to be replaced and vacant using cost data and, two, also using a residual technique based on discounted cash flow models, as vacant. Factors considered by us include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. We also recognize the fair value of furniture, fixtures and equipment on the premises, as well as the above- or below-market rent, the value of in-place leases, master leases, above- or below-market debt and derivative financial instruments assumed.
The value of the above- or below-market component of the acquired in-place leases is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between: (i) the level payment equivalent of the contract rent paid pursuant to the lease; and (ii) our estimate of market rent payments taking into account the expected market rent growth. In the case of leases with options, a case-by-case analysis is performed based on all facts and circumstances of the specific lease to determine whether the option will be assumed to be exercised. The amounts related to above-market leases are included in identified intangible assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized as a decrease to real estate revenue over the remaining non-cancelable lease term of the acquired leases with each property. The amounts related to below-market leases are included in identified intangible liabilities, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized as an increase to real estate revenue over the remaining non-cancelable lease term plus any below-market renewal options of the acquired leases with each property.
The value of in-place lease costs are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of the tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with the tenants. Characteristics considered by us in allocating these values include the nature and extent of the credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors. The in-place lease intangible represents the value related to the economic benefit for acquiring a property with in-place leases as opposed to a vacant property, which is evaluated based on a review of comparable leases for a similar property, terms and conditions for marketing and executing new leases, and implied in the difference between the value of the whole property “as is” and “as vacant.” The net amounts related to in-place lease costs are included in identified intangible assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized as an increase to depreciation and amortization expense over the average downtime of the acquired leases with each property. The net amounts related to the value of tenant relationships, if any, are included in identified intangible assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized as an increase to depreciation and amortization expense over

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
the average remaining non-cancelable lease term of the acquired leases plus the market renewal lease term. The value of a master lease, if any, in which a previous owner or a tenant is relieved of specific rental obligations as additional space is leased, is determined by discounting the expected real estate revenue associated with the master lease space over the assumed lease-up period.
The value of above- or below-market debt is determined based upon the present value of the difference between the cash flow stream of the assumed mortgage and the cash flow stream of a market rate mortgage at the time of assumption. The net value of above- or below-market debt is included in mortgage loans payable, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is amortized as an increase or decrease to interest expense, as applicable, over the remaining term of the assumed mortgage.
The values of contingent consideration assets and liabilities are analyzed at the time of acquisition. For contingent purchase options, the fair market value of the acquired asset is compared to the specified option price at the exercise date. If the option price is below market, it is assumed to be exercised and the difference between the fair market value and the option price is discounted to the present value at the time of acquisition.
The values of the redeemable and nonredeemable noncontrolling interests are estimated by applying the income approach based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value measurement may apply significant inputs that are not observable in the market. See Note 4, Business Combinations — 2021 Business Combinations — Fair Value of Noncontrolling Interests, for a further discussion of our fair value measurement approach and the significant inputs used in the values of redeemable and nonredeemable noncontrolling interests in GAHR IV.

We carry our operating properties at our historical cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of operating properties includes the cost of land and completed buildings and related improvements, including those related to financing obligations. Expenditures that increase the service life of properties are capitalized and the cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred. The cost of buildings and capital improvements is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the buildings and capital improvements, up to 39 years, and the cost for tenant improvements is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or useful life, up to 34 years. The cost of furniture, fixtures and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful life, up to 28 years. When depreciable property is retired, replaced or disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in earnings.
As part of the leasing process, we may provide the lessee with an allowance for the construction of leasehold improvements. These leasehold improvements are capitalized and recorded as tenant improvements and depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the improvements or the lease term. If the allowance represents a payment for a purpose other than funding leasehold improvements, or in the event we are not considered the owner of the improvements, the allowance is considered to be a lease inducement and is included in other assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Lease inducement is amortized over the lease term as a reduction of real estate revenue on a straight-line basis. Factors considered during this evaluation include, among other things, who holds legal title to the improvements as well as other controlling rights provided by the lease agreement and provisions for substantiation of such costs (e.g., unilateral control of the tenant space during the build-out process). Determination of the appropriate accounting for the payment of a tenant allowance is made on a lease-by-lease basis, considering the facts and circumstances of the individual tenant lease. Recognition of lease revenue commences when the lessee is given possession of the leased space upon completion of tenant improvements when we are the owner of the leasehold improvements. However, when the leasehold improvements are owned by the tenant, the lease inception date (and the date on which recognition of lease revenue commences) is the date the tenant obtains possession of the leased space for purposes of constructing its leasehold improvements.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of underlying identifiable net assets of a business acquired in a business combination. Our goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. We take a qualitative approach, as applicable, to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting unit in step one of the impairment test. When step one of the impairment test is utilized, we compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. We recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied value in the current period. We take a qualitative approach, as applicable, to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting unit in step one of the impairment test.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets
We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets, primarily consisting of investments in real estate that we carry at our historical cost less accumulated depreciation, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying value may not be recoverable. We consider the following indicators, among others, in our evaluation of impairment:
•significant negative industry or economic trends;
•a significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; and
•a significant change in the extent or manner in which the asset is used or significant physical change in the asset.
If indicators of impairment of our long-lived assets are present, we evaluate the carrying value of the related real estate investments in relation to the future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying operations. In performing this evaluation, we consider market conditions and our current intentions with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. We adjust the net book value of properties we lease to others and other long-lived assets to fair value if the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows, including sales proceeds, is less than carrying value. We recognize an impairment loss at the time we make any such determination.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
We test indefinite-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, for impairment at least annually, and more frequently if indicators arise. We first assess qualitative factors to determine the likelihood that the fair value of the reporting group is less than its carrying value. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair values of other indefinite-lived intangible assets are usually determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, as appropriate.
If impairment indicators arise with respect to intangible assets with finite useful lives, we evaluate impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, then we estimate the fair value of the asset and compare the estimated fair value to the intangible asset’s carrying value. For all of our reporting units, we recognize any shortfall from carrying value as an impairment loss in the current period.
See Note 3, Real Estate Investments, Net — Impairment of Real Estate Investments, for a further discussion of impairment of long-lived assets. See Note 6, Identified Intangible Assets Net,and Liabilities, for a further discussion.discussion of impairment of intangible assets.
Properties Held for Sale
A property or a group of properties is reported in discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss)loss for current and prior periods if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when either: (i) the component has been disposed of or (ii) is classified as held for sale. At such time as a property is held for sale, such property is carried at the lower of: (i) its carrying amount or (ii) fair value less costs to sell. In addition, a property being held for sale ceases to be depreciated. We classify operating properties as property held for sale in the period in which all of the following criteria are met:
•management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the asset;
•the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets;
•an active program to locate a buyer or buyers and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the asset has been initiated;
•the sale of the asset is probable and the transfer of the asset is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year;
•the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and
•given the actions required to complete the plan to sell the asset, it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan would be made or that the plan would be withdrawn.

Debt Security Investment, Net
We classify our marketable debt security investment as held-to-maturity because we have the positive intent and ability to hold the security to maturity, and we have not recorded any unrealized holding gains or losses on such investment. Our held-to-maturity security is recorded at amortized cost and adjusted for the amortization of premiums or discounts through maturity.

Derivative Financial Instruments
We are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes in the normal course of business. We seek to mitigate these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, which include the occasional use of derivatives. Our primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts, such as fixed-rate interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements by effectively converting a portion of our variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
Derivatives are recognized as either other assets or other liabilities in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are measured at fair value. We do not designate our derivative instruments as hedge instruments as defined by guidance under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedges, or ASC Topic 815, which allows for gains and losses on derivatives designated as hedges to be offset by the change in value of the hedged items or to be deferred in other comprehensive income (loss). Changes in the fair value of our derivative financial instruments are recorded as a component of interest expense in gain or loss in fair value of derivative financial instruments in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss.
See Note 10, Derivative Financial Instruments, and Note 16,15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion of our derivative financial instruments.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of certain assets and liabilities is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, we follow a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of our reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and our reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
See Note 16,15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion.
Other Assets, Net
Other assets, net primarily consists of inventory, prepaid expenses and deposits, certaindeferred financing costs related to our lines of credit, and term loans, deferred rent receivables, deferred tax assets, investments in unconsolidated entities, lease inducements and lease commissions. Inventory consists primarily of pharmaceutical and medical supplies and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit and term loans include amounts paid to lenders and others to obtain such financing. Such costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest rate method. Amortization of deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit and term loans is included in interest expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. Lease commissions are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease. Prepaid expenses are amortized over the related contract periods.
We report investments in unconsolidated entities using the equity method of accounting when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies. Under the equity method, our share of the investee’s

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
earnings or losses is included in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. We generally do not recognize equity method losses when such losses exceed our net equity method investment balance unless we have committed to provide such investee additional financial support or guaranteed its obligations. To the extent that our cost basis is different from the basis reflected at the entity level, the basis difference is generally amortized over the lives of the related assets and liabilities, and such amortization is included in our share of equity in earnings of the entity. The initial carrying value of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the entity interest or the estimated fair value of the assets prior to the sale of interests in the entity. We have elected to follow the cumulative earnings approach when classifying distributions received from equity method investments in our consolidated statements of cash flows, whereby any distributions received up to the amount of cumulative equity earnings will be considered a return on investment and classified in operating activities and any excess distributions would be considered a return of investment and classified in investing activities. We evaluate our equity method investments for impairment based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value of the equity method investment to its carrying value. When we determine a decline in the estimated fair value of such an investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary, an impairment is recorded.
See Note 7, Other Assets, Net, for a further discussion.

Foreign Currency
We have real estate investments in the United Kingdom, or UK, and Isle of Man for which the functional currency is the UK Pound Sterling, or GBP. We translate the results of operations of our foreign real estate investments into United States Dollars, or USD, using the average currency rates of exchange in effect during the period, and we translate assets and liabilities using the currency exchange rate in effect at the end of the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders’ equity, in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Certain balance sheet items, primarily equity and capital-related accounts, are reflected at the historical currency exchange rates. We also have intercompany notes and payables denominated in GBP with our UK subsidiaries. Gains or losses resulting from remeasuring such intercompany notes and payables into USD at the end of each reporting period are reflected in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss. When such intercompany notes and payables are deemed to be of a long-term investment nature, they will be reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are remeasured into USD at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transactions. The effects of transaction gains or losses are included in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).loss.
Income Taxes
We qualified,qualify, and electedelect to be taxed, as a REIT under the Code, and we intend to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute to our stockholders a minimum of 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes if we distribute 100% of our taxable income each year to our stockholders.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT in any taxable year, we will then be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could have a material adverse effect on our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We may be subject to certain state and local income taxes on our income, property or net worth in some jurisdictions, and, in certain circumstances, we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain activities that we undertake are conducted by subsidiaries, which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, to allow us to provide services that would otherwise be considered impermissible for REITs. Also, we have real estate investments in the UK and Isle of Man, which do not accord REIT status to United States REITs under their tax laws. Accordingly, we recognize an income tax benefit or expense for the federal, state and local income taxes incurred by our TRS and foreign income taxes on our real estate investments in the UK and Isle of Man.
We account for deferred income taxes using the asset and liability method and recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in our financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets reflect the impact of the future deductibility of operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided if we believe it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Any increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes us to change our judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset, is included in income tax benefit or expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss)

Segment Disclosure
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. Accordingly, when we acquired our first MOB in June 2014; SNF in September 2014; hospital in December 2014; SHOP in May 2015; skilled nursing facility in October 2015; and integrated senior health campus in December 2015, we established a new reportable segment at such time.

discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of the discontinuation of the use of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate due to reference rate reform. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, or ASU 2022-06, which extends the period of time entities can utilize the reference rate reform relief guidance under ASU 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU 2020-04, ASU 2021-01 and ASU 2022-06 are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after March 12, 2020 and through the effective date December 31, 2024, as extended by ASU 2022-06. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance has on our variable-rate debt and lease contracts to determine the impact on our disclosures.
In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors — Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, orASU2021-05, which amends the lease classification requirements for lessors to align them with practice under the previous lease accounting standard, ASC Topic 840, Leases. Lessors should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease, if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease; and (2) the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. ASU 2021-05 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption was permitted. We adopted such accounting pronouncement on January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures as we have no material sales-type or direct financing leases.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, or ASU 2021-08, which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquiror on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. Under the current business combination guidance, such assets and liabilities were recognized by the acquiror as fair value on the acquisition date. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. We adopted such accounting pronouncements on January 1, 2023, which has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures as of December 31, 2023.
In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280-General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock, or ASU 2023-03. ASU 2023-03 amends the Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, for SEC updates pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120; SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 Emerging Issues Task Force Meeting; and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock. These updates were immediately effective and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations — Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805- 60): Recognition and Initial Measurement, or ASU 2023-05. ASU 2023-05 applies to the initial formation of a “joint venture” or a “corporate joint venture” as defined in the accounting literature and requires a joint venture to apply a new basis of accounting by initially measuring and recognizing all contributions received upon its formation at fair value. In particular, a joint venture will measure its total assets and liabilities upon formation as the fair value of the joint venture as a whole, which would equal the fair value of all of the joint venture’s outstanding equity interests. The new guidance does not change the definition of a joint venture, the accounting by the investors for their investments in a joint venture (e.g., equity method accounting) or the accounting by a joint venture for contributions received after its formation. ASU 2023-05 will be applied prospectively and is effective for all newly-formed joint venture entities with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-05 on January 1, 2025 to have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, or ASU 2023-07, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. Such disclosure amendments include the requirement for public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 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 and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, or ASU 2023-09, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2022,2024, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02,SEC adopted final rules, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt RestructuringThe Enhancement and VintageStandardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors or ASU 2022-02, which eliminates certain previously issued accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings, or TDRs, and enhances disclosure requirements surrounding refinancing, restructurings, and write-offs. Current GAAP provides an exception to general recognition and measurement guidance for loan restructurings if they meet specific criteria to be considered TDRs. If. The final rules require a modification is a TDR, incremental expected losses are recorded in the allowance for credit losses upon modification and specific disclosures are required. The new amendment eliminates the TDR recognition and measurement guidance and requires the reporting entity to evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan, consistent with accounting for other loan modifications. The amendment also requires public business entitiesregistrant to disclose, current-period gross write-offs by yearamong other things: material climate-related risks; activities to mitigate or adapt to such risks, as well as a quantitative and qualitative description of originationmaterial expenditures incurred and material impacts on financial estimates and assumptions that directly result from such mitigation or adaptation activities; material capitalized costs, expenses and losses incurred as a result of severe weather events and other natural conditions; information about the registrant’s board of directors’ oversight of climate-related risks and management’s role in managing material climate-related risks; and information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the registrant’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

The lease agreement includes a finance obligation with a present value of $15,504,000 representing our obligation to purchase the Sold Property between 2028 and 2029. Simultaneously, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, purchased a previously leased integrated senior health campus, or the Purchased Property, from the Buyer which was in exchange for the Sold Property.

Impairment of Real Estate Investments
For the year ended December 31, 2020.
Impairment2023, as we continue to evaluate additional non-strategic properties for sale, we determined that two of Real Estate Investmentsour SHOP and one of our OM buildings were impaired and recognized an aggregate impairment charge of $13,899,000, which reduced the total aggregate carrying value of such assets to $20,439,000. The remaining $3,477,000 carrying value of one of the impaired SHOP was reclassified to properties held for sale during the third quarter of 2023, which is included in other assets, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of one SHOP was based on its projected sales price from an independent third party letter of intent, and the fair value of such OM was determined by the sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third-party buyer, which were considered Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the other SHOP was determined by a third-party appraiser based on the sales comparison approach with the most significant inputs based on a price per unit and price per square foot analysis within the area for similar types of assets. The ranges of these inputs were $190,000 to $200,000 per unit and $250 to $260 per square foot, which were considered Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, we determined that 12 facilities within our SHOP segment were impaired and recognized an aggregate impairment charge of $54,579,000, which reduced the total aggregate carrying value of such facilities to $81,149,000. We disposed of three of such impaired facilities during the fourth quarter of 2022, and disposed of five of such impaired facilities during the year of 2023, as discussed in the “Dispositions of Real Estate Investments” section above. The fair value of one of our impaired facilities was determined by the

The fair valuevalues of our remaining 11 impaired facilities were based on their projected sales prices, which were considered Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, we determined that one MOBOM building was impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $3,335,000, which reduced the carrying value of such asset to $2,880,000. The fair value of such property was determined by the sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third-party buyer, and adjusted for anticipated selling costs, which was considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. We disposed of such impaired MOBOM building in July 2021 for a contract sales price of $3,000,000 and recognized a net gain on sale of $346,000.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, we determined that one SNF and one MOB were impaired and recognized an aggregate impairment charge
Table of $8,350,000, which reduced the total carrying value of such assets to $4,256,000. The fair values of such properties were determined by the sales price from executed purchase and sales agreements with third-party buyers, and adjusted for anticipated selling costs, which were considered Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. We disposed of such impaired MOB in July 2020 for a contract sales price of $3,500,000 and recognized a net gain on sale of $15,000. As of December 31, 2020, the remaining $1,056,000 carrying value of such SNF was classified in properties held for sale, and we subsequently disposed of such property in February 2021 for a contract sales price of $1,300,000 and recognized a net loss on sale of $332,000.Contents AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.

loss.On December 5, 2022, we acquired a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas from an unaffiliated third party, which facilities are included in our SHOP segment. These facilities are part of the underlying collateral pool of real estate assets securing our debt security investment, as defined and described at Note 5, Debt Security Investment, Net. We acquired the seven facilities by assuming the outstanding principal balance of each related mortgage loan payable from one of the borrowers as such borrower was in default on the required debt payments. The aggregated principal balance of such assumed mortgage loans payable was $110,627,000 at the time of acquisition. No cash consideration was exchanged as part of the transactions; however, we incurred transaction costs of $1,895,000 related to the acquisition of such facilities.

2021 Business Combinations — Merger and the AHI Acquisition
As discussed in Note 1, Organization and Description of Business, on October 1, 2021, pursuant to thean Agreement and Plan of Merger Agreement,dated June 23, 2021, we completed the REIT Merger and Partnership Merger. At the effective time of the REIT Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, each issued and outstanding share of GAHR III’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, converted into the right to receive 0.9266 shares of GAHR IV’s Class I common stock, $0.01 par value per share. At the effective time of the Partnership Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, (i) each unit of limited partnership interest in our operating partnership outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive 0.9266 of a Partnership Class I Unit, as defined in the agreement of limited partnership, as amended, of the surviving partnershipSurviving Partnership and (ii) each unit of limited partnership interest in GAHR IV Operating Partnership outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive one unit of limited partnership interest of the surviving partnershipSurviving Partnership of like class.
Additionally, on October 1, 2021, the AHI Acquisition closed immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, and pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, AHI contributed substantially all of its business and operations to the surviving partnership,Surviving Partnership, including its interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor, and Griffin Capital contributed its ownership interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor to the surviving partnership.Surviving Partnership. In exchange for their contributions, the surviving partnershipSurviving Partnership issued surviving partnershiplimited OP units. The total approximate value of these OP units at the time of consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, and prior to the reverse stock split, was approximately $131,674,000, with a reference value for purposes thereof of $8.71 per OP unit, such that the Surviving Partnership issued 15,117,529 OP units as consideration for the transaction. Such OP units were owned by AHI Group Holdings, LLC, or AHI Group Holdings, which is owned and controlled by the AHI Principals, Platform Healthcare Investor T-II, LLC, Flaherty Trust and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital, or collectively, the NewCo Sellers.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Further, upon consummation of the AHI Acquisition, we redeemed all 51 limited partnership units that our former advisor held in our operating partnership, as well as all 52 limited partnership units held by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV Operating Partnership. Also, on October 1, 2021 and in connection with the AHI Acquisition, our operating partnership redeemed all 5,148 shares of our common stock owned by our former advisor and all 5,208 shares of our Class T common stock owned by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV.
The AHI Acquisition was treated as a business combination for accounting purposes, with GAHR III as both the legal and accounting acquiror of NewCo. While GAHR IV was the legal acquiror of GAHR III in the REIT Merger, GAHR III was determined to be the accounting acquiror in the REIT Merger in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, or ASC Topic 805, after considering the relative share ownership and the composition of the governing body of the Combined Company. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects results of the Combined Company, and the financial information set forth herein prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects GAHR III’s results. For this reason, period-to-period comparisons may not be meaningful.

Environmental Matters
We follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances.

Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Other

Share Repurchase Plan
Our share repurchase plan allowed for repurchases of shares of our common stock by us when certain criteria are met. Share repurchases were made at the sole discretion of our board. Subject to the availability of the funds for share repurchases and other certain conditions, we generally limited the number of shares of our common stock repurchased during any calendar year to 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year; provided however, that shares subject to a repurchase requested upon the death or “qualifying disability,” as defined in our share repurchase plan, of a stockholder were not subject to this cap. Funds for the repurchase of shares of our common stock came from the cumulative proceeds we received from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings.offerings.
Pursuant to our share repurchase plan, the repurchase price is equal to the lesser of (i) the amount per share that a stockholder paid for their shares of our common stock, or (ii) the most recent estimated value of one share of our common stock, as determined by our board, except that the repurchase price with respect to repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders was equal to the most recently published estimated per share NAV. On October 4, 2021, as a result of the Merger, our board authorized the partial reinstatement of our share repurchase plan with respect to requests to repurchase shares resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, effective with respect to qualifying repurchases for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021. All share repurchase requests other than those requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders were rejected. On November 14, 2022, our board suspended our share repurchase plan beginning with share repurchase requests for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. All share repurchase requests, including requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2022, will not be processed, will be considered canceled in full and will not be considered outstanding repurchase requests.

Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity
Membership Interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings
As of December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, Trilogy REIT Holdings owned approximately 96.2%97.5% and 95.9%96.2%, respectively, of Trilogy. Prior to October 1, 2021, we were the indirect owner of a 70.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings pursuant to an amended joint venture agreement with an indirect, wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiary of NorthStar Healthcare Income, Inc., or NHI, and a wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiary of GAHR IV Operating Partnership. We serve as the managing member of Trilogy REIT Holdings. As part ofIn connection with the Merger, the wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiary of GAHR IV Operating Partnership sold its 6.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings to GAHR III, thereby increasing our indirect ownership in Trilogy REIT Holdings to 76.0%. Through September 30, 2021, 30.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to noncontrolling interests, and since October 1, 2021, 24.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to a noncontrolling interest.
On November 3, 2023, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, or the MIPA, with subsidiaries of NHI, which provides us with the option to purchase their 24.0% minority membership interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings. If we exercise this purchase option, we will own 100% of Trilogy REIT Holdings, which (assuming that there are no changes in the equity capitalization of Trilogy prior to consummation of the purchase) will in turn cause us to indirectly own approximately 97.5% of Trilogy. Subject to our first satisfying certain closing conditions, the option is exercisable for a closing before September 30, 2025 assuming that we exercise both extension options described below. If we exercise our purchase option, the all-cash purchase price would be $240,500,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, would increase to $247,000,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024 and would further increase to $260,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025.
The MIPA also allows us (at our election), instead of paying all cash, to consummate the purchase transaction by using a combination of cash and the issuance of new Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, or our Convertible Preferred Stock, as purchase price consideration. We must pay at least a minimum amount of the purchase price in cash, in which case we would pay the remaining amount in shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. The minimum cash amount will be $24,050,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, $24,700,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024, or $26,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025. If issued, our Convertible Preferred Stock will be perpetual, will have a cumulative cash dividend with an

In addition, holders of shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock will have the right, at any time on or after July 1, 2026 and from time to time, to convert some or all of such shares into shares of our common stock, subject to certain customary exceptions.

We seek to mitigate these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, which include the occasional use of derivatives.

Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of certain assets and liabilities is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, we follow a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of our reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and our reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in rentalLevel 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
See Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion.
Other Assets, Net
Other assets, net primarily consists of inventory, prepaid expenses and deposits, deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit, deferred rent receivables, deferred tax assets, investments in unconsolidated entities, lease inducements and lease commissions. Inventory consists primarily of pharmaceutical and medical supplies and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or generalmarket. Deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit include amounts paid to lenders and administrative expensesothers to obtain such financing. Such costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest rate method. Amortization of deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit is included in interest expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), dependingloss. Lease commissions are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease. Prepaid expenses are amortized over the related contract periods.
We report investments in unconsolidated entities using the equity method of accounting when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies. Under the equity method, our share of the investee’s

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
earnings or losses is included in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. We generally do not recognize equity method losses when such losses exceed our net equity method investment balance unless we have committed to provide such investee additional financial support or guaranteed its obligations. To the extent that our cost basis is different from the basis reflected at the entity level, the basis difference is generally amortized over the lives of the related assets and liabilities, and such amortization is included in our share of equity in earnings of the entity. The initial carrying value of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the entity interest or the estimated fair value of the assets prior to the sale of interests in the entity. We have elected to follow the cumulative earnings approach when classifying distributions received from equity method investments in our consolidated statements of cash flows, whereby any distributions received up to the amount of cumulative equity earnings will be considered a return on investment and classified in operating activities and any excess distributions would be considered a return of investment and classified in investing activities. We evaluate our equity method investments for impairment based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value of the equity method investment to its carrying value. When we determine a decline in the estimated fair value of such an investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary, an impairment is recorded.
See Note 7, Other Assets, Net, for a further discussion.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily include insurance reserves of $44,548,000 and $39,893,000, respectively, reimbursement of payroll-related costs to the managers of our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses of $42,698,000 and $38,624,000, respectively, accrued developments and capital expenditures to unaffiliated third parties of $24,881,000 and $30,211,000, respectively, accrued property type fromtaxes of $23,549,000 and $24,926,000, respectively, and accrued distributions to common stockholders of $16,557,000 and $26,484,000, respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
We follow ASC Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, or ASC Topic 718, to account for our stock compensation pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated 2015 Incentive Plan, or the AHR Incentive Plan, using the fair value method, which requires an estimate of fair value of the award at the time of grant and recognition of compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. Forfeitures of stock based awards are recognized as an adjustment to compensation expense as they occur. Awards granted under the AHR Incentive Plan consist of restricted stock or units issued to our executive officers and employees, in addition to restricted stock issued to our directors. See Note 13, Equity — Equity Compensation Plans, for a further discussion of awards granted under the AHR Incentive Plan.
Foreign Currency
We have real estate investments in the United Kingdom, or UK, and Isle of Man for which the feefunctional currency is the UK Pound Sterling, or GBP. We translate the results of operations of our foreign real estate investments into United States Dollars, or USD, using the average currency rates of exchange in effect during the period, and we translate assets and liabilities using the currency exchange rate in effect at the end of the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders’ equity, in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Certain balance sheet items, primarily equity and capital-related accounts, are reflected at the historical currency exchange rates. We also have intercompany notes and payables denominated in GBP with our UK subsidiaries. Gains or losses resulting from remeasuring such intercompany notes and payables into USD at the end of each reporting period are reflected in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. When such intercompany notes and payables are deemed to be of a long-term investment nature, they will be reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are remeasured into USD at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transactions. The effects of transaction gains or losses are included in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Income Taxes
We qualify, and elect to be taxed, as a REIT under the Code, and we intend to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute to our stockholders a minimum of 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes if we distribute 100% of our taxable income each year to our stockholders.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT in any taxable year, we will then be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could have a material adverse effect on our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We may be subject to certain state and local income taxes on our income, property or net worth in some jurisdictions, and, in certain circumstances, we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain activities that we undertake are conducted by subsidiaries, which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, to allow us to provide services that would otherwise be considered impermissible for REITs. Also, we have real estate investments in the UK and Isle of Man, which do not accord REIT status to United States REITs under their tax laws. Accordingly, we recognize an income tax benefit or expense for the federal, state and local income taxes incurred by our TRS and foreign income taxes on our real estate investments in the UK and Isle of Man.
We account for deferred income taxes using the asset and liability method and recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in our financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets reflect the impact of the future deductibility of operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided if we believe it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Any increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes us to change our judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset, is included in income tax benefit or expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss when such changes occur. Any increase or decrease in the deferred tax liability that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes us to change our judgment about expected future tax consequences of events, is recorded in income tax benefit or expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Net deferred tax assets are included in other assets, or net deferred tax liabilities are included in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities, in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
See Note 16, Income Taxes, for a further discussion.
Segment Disclosure
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, we modified how we evaluate our business and make resource allocations, and therefore determined that we operate through four reportable business segments; integrated senior health campuses, OM (which was incurred.formerly known as MOBs), triple-net leased properties and SHOP. All segment information included in the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements has been recast for all periods presented to reflect four reportable business segments and the change in segment name from MOBs to OM. The segment name change from MOBs to OM did not result in any changes to the composition of such segment or information reviewed by management, and therefore, had no impact on the historical results of operations.
See Note 18, Segment Reporting, for a further discussion.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform of Financial Reporting, or ASU 2020-04, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria. ASU 2020-04 applies to the aforementioned transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), or ASU 2021-01, which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modification and hedge accounting apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining,

(3)discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of the discontinuation of the use of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate due to reference rate reform. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06,Acquisition fees Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, or ASU 2022-06, which extends the period of time entities can utilize the reference rate reform relief guidance under ASU 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU 2020-04, ASU 2021-01 and ASU 2022-06 are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after March 12, 2020 and through the effective date December 31, 2024, as extended by ASU 2022-06. We adopted such accounting pronouncements on January 1, 2023, which has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures as of December 31, 2023.
In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280-General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock, or ASU 2023-03. ASU 2023-03 amends the Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, for SEC updates pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120; SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 Emerging Issues Task Force Meeting; and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock. These updates were immediately effective and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations — Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805- 60): Recognition and Initial Measurement, or ASU 2023-05. ASU 2023-05 applies to the initial formation of a “joint venture” or a “corporate joint venture” as defined in the accounting literature and requires a joint venture to apply a new basis of accounting by initially measuring and recognizing all contributions received upon its formation at fair value. In particular, a joint venture will measure its total assets and liabilities upon formation as the fair value of the joint venture as a whole, which would equal the fair value of all of the joint venture’s outstanding equity interests. The new guidance does not change the definition of a joint venture, the accounting by the investors for their investments in a joint venture (e.g., equity method accounting) or the accounting by a joint venture for contributions received after its formation. ASU 2023-05 will be applied prospectively and is effective for all newly-formed joint venture entities with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-05 on January 1, 2025 to have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, or ASU 2023-07, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. Such disclosure amendments include the requirement for public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 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 and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, or ASU 2023-09, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

The fair value of one SHOP was based on its projected sales price from an independent third party letter of intent, and the fair value of such OM was determined by the sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third-party buyer, which were considered Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the AHI Acquisition, GAHR III and the surviving partnership entered intoother SHOP was determined by a registration rights agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement, with Griffin-American Strategic Holdings, LLC, or HoldCo, pursuant to which, subject to certain limitations therein, as promptly as practicable following the later of the expiration of (i) the period commencingthird-party appraiser based on the closing of the AHI Acquisition and ending upon the earliest to occur of (a) the second anniversary date of the issuance of the surviving partnership OP units issued in connectionsales comparison approach with the AHI Acquisition, (b) a change of control of Merger Sub, and (c) the listing of shares of our common stockmost significant inputs based on a national securities exchange, orprice per unit and price per square foot analysis within the Lock-Up Period;area for similar types of assets.

The Registration Rights Agreement also grants HoldCo (or any successor holder of such shares) demand rights to request additional registration statement filings as well as “piggyback” registration rights, in each case on or after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period. In connection with the Merger, we assumed from GAHR III the Registration Rights Agreement and GAHR III’s obligations thereunder in their entirety.

We did not have anyOn February 15, 2023, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired from an unaffiliated third party a 60.0% controlling interest in a privately held company, Memory Care Partners, LLC, or MCP, that operated integrated senior health campuses located in Kentucky. The contract purchase price for the acquisition of MCP was $900,000, which was acquired using cash on hand. Prior to such acquisition, we owned a 40.0% interest in MCP, which was accounted for as an equity method investment and was included in investments in unconsolidated entities within other assets, and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basisnet in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. The table below presents our assets and liabilities measured atIn connection with the acquisition of the remaining interest in MCP, we now own a 100% controlling interest in MCP. As a result, we re-measured the fair value of our previously held equity interest in MCP and recognized a gain on re-measurement of $726,000 in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, we accounted for four acquisitions as business combinations, as discussed below, the first three of which are included within our integrated senior health campuses segment. Based on quantitative and qualitative considerations, such four business combinations were not material to us individually or in the aggregate, and, therefore, pro forma financial information is not provided.
On January 3, 2022, we, through a recurring basismajority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired an integrated senior health campus in Kentucky from an unaffiliated third party. The contract purchase price for such property acquisition was $27,790,000 plus immaterial transaction costs. We acquired such property using cash on hand and placed a mortgage loan payable of $20,800,000 on the property at the time of acquisition.
On April 1, 2022, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired a 50.0% interest in a pharmaceutical business in Florida from an unaffiliated third party and incurred transaction costs of $938,000. Prior to such pharmaceutical business acquisition, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, owned the other 50.0% interest in such business, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. Therefore, through March 31, 2022, our 50.0% interest in the net earnings or losses of such unconsolidated entity was included in income or loss from unconsolidated entities in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
On August 1, 2022, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired a 50.0% controlling interest in a privately held company, RHS Partners, LLC, or RHS, that owns and/or operates 16 integrated senior health campuses located in Indiana, from an unaffiliated third party. The contract purchase price for the acquisition of RHS was $36,661,000 plus immaterial closing costs, which was primarily acquired using cash on hand. Prior to such acquisition, we owned a 50.0% interest in RHS, which was accounted for as an equity method investment and was included in investments in unconsolidated entities within other assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, aggregated by2021. Therefore, through July 31, 2022, our 50.0% equity interest in the levelnet earnings or losses of RHS was included in income or loss from unconsolidated entities in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. In connection with the acquisition of the remaining interest in RHS, we now own a 100% controlling interest in RHS. As a result, we re-measured the fair value hierarchyof our previously held equity interest in RHS and recognized a gain on re-measurement of $19,567,000 in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
On December 5, 2022, we acquired a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas from an unaffiliated third party, which facilities are included in our SHOP segment. These facilities are part of the underlying collateral pool of real estate assets securing our debt security investment, as defined and described at Note 5, Debt Security Investment, Net. We acquired the seven facilities by assuming the outstanding principal balance of each related mortgage loan payable from one of the borrowers as such borrower was in default on the required debt payments. The aggregated principal balance of such assumed mortgage loans payable was $110,627,000 at the time of acquisition. No cash consideration was exchanged as part of the transactions; however, we incurred transaction costs of $1,895,000 related to the acquisition of such facilities.

2021 Business Combinations — Merger and the AHI Acquisition
As discussed in Note 1, Organization and Description of Business, on October 1, 2021, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 23, 2021, we completed the REIT Merger and Partnership Merger. At the effective time of the REIT Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, each issued and outstanding share of GAHR III’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, converted into the right to receive 0.9266 shares of GAHR IV’s Class I common stock, $0.01 par value per share. At the effective time of the Partnership Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, (i) each unit of limited partnership interest in our operating partnership outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive 0.9266 of a Partnership Class I Unit, as defined in the agreement of limited partnership, as amended, of the Surviving Partnership and (ii) each unit of limited partnership interest in GAHR IV Operating Partnership outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive one unit of limited partnership interest of the Surviving Partnership of like class.
Additionally, on October 1, 2021, the AHI Acquisition closed immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, and pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, AHI contributed substantially all of its business and operations to the Surviving Partnership, including its interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor, and Griffin Capital contributed its ownership interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor to the Surviving Partnership. In exchange for their contributions, the Surviving Partnership issued limited OP units. The total approximate value of these OP units at the time of consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, and prior to the reverse stock split, was approximately $131,674,000, with a reference value for purposes thereof of $8.71 per OP unit, such that the Surviving Partnership issued 15,117,529 OP units as consideration for the transaction. Such OP units were owned by AHI Group Holdings, LLC, or AHI Group Holdings, which

Further, upon consummation of the AHI Acquisition, we redeemed all 51 limited partnership units that our former advisor held in our operating partnership, as well as all 52 limited partnership units held by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV Operating Partnership. Also, on October 1, 2021 and in connection with the AHI Acquisition, our operating partnership redeemed all 5,148 shares of our common stock owned by our former advisor and all 5,208 shares of our Class T common stock owned by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV.
The AHI Acquisition was treated as a business combination for accounting purposes, with GAHR III as both the legal and accounting acquiror of NewCo. While GAHR IV was the legal acquiror of GAHR III in the REIT Merger, GAHR III was determined to be the accounting acquiror in the REIT Merger in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, or ASC Topic 805, after considering the relative share ownership and the composition of the governing body of the Combined Company. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects results of the Combined Company, and the financial information set forth herein prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects GAHR III’s results.

amount of $93,433,000, resulting in an anticipated yield-to-maturity of 10.0% per annum. The debt security was issued by an unaffiliated mortgage trust and represents a 10.0% beneficial ownership interest in such mortgage trust. The debt security is subordinate to all other interests in the mortgage trust and is not guaranteed by a government-sponsored entity.
On December 5, 2022, we acquired a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas from an unaffiliated third party, which facilities are included in the underlying collateral pool securing our debt security investment. We acquired the seven facilities by assuming the outstanding principal balance of each related mortgage loan payable from one of the borrowers as such borrower was in default on the required debt payments. We did not grant any concessions to such borrowers, and the carrying value of our debt security investment at the time of acquisition did not exceed the fair value of such facilities. See Note 4, Business Combinations — 2022 and 2023 Business Combinations, for a further discussion of such acquisitions.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying amount of the debt security investment was $86,935,000 and $83,000,000, respectively, net of unamortized closing costs of $489,000 and $767,000, respectively. Accretion on the debt security for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021was $4,213,000, $3,922,000 and $3,665,000, respectively, which is recorded as an increase to real estate revenue in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Amortization expense of closing costs for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $278,000, $237,000 and $201,000, respectively, which is recorded as a decrease to real estate revenue in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. We evaluated credit quality indicators such as the agency ratings and the underlying collateral of such investment in order to determine expected future credit loss.

The 2022 Credit Facility bore interest at varying rates based upon, at our option, (i) Daily SOFR, plus the Applicable Rate for Daily SOFR Rate Loans or (ii) the Term SOFR, plus the Applicable Rate for Term SOFR Rate Loans. If, under the terms of the 2022 Credit Agreement, there was an inability to determine the Daily SOFR or the Term SOFR then the 2022 Credit Facility bore interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans. The loans could have been repaid in common units heldwhole or in part without prepayment premium or penalty, subject to certain conditions.
The 2022 Credit Agreement required us to add additional subsidiaries as guarantors in the event the value of the assets owned by the subsidiary guarantors fell below a certain membersthreshold as set forth in the 2022 Credit Agreement. In the event of Trilogy’s managementdefault, Bank of America had the right to terminate the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions under the 2022 Credit Agreement, and to accelerate the payment on any unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans and interest thereon. On March 1, 2023, we entered into an amendment to the 2022 Credit Agreement, or the First Amendment. The material terms of the First Amendment provided for $678,000revisions to certain financial covenants for a limited period of time.

Litigation
We are not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, which, if determined unfavorably to us, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
We follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Other
Our other commitments and contingencies include the usual obligations of real estate owners and operators in the normal course of business, which include calls/puts to sell/acquire properties. In our view, these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Preferred Stock
Pursuant to our charter, we are authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.

Common Stock
Pursuant to our charter, as amended, we are authorized to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share, whereby 200,000,000 shares are classified as Class T common stock and 800,000,000 shares were classified as Class I common stock. On January 26, 2024, we further amended our charter to reclassify shares of our Class I common stock such that 200,000,000 shares are classified as Class T common stock, 100,000,000 shares are classified as Class I common stock and 700,000,000 shares are classified as common stock without any designation as to class or series.
On October 4, 2021, our board authorized the reinstatement of our distribution reinvestment plan, as amended, or the AHR DRIP, to offer up to $100,000,000 of shares of our common stock pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act filed by GAHR IV, or the AHR DRIP Offering. On November 14, 2022, our board suspended the AHR DRIP Offering beginning with the distributions declared, if any, for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. As a result of the suspension of the AHR DRIP, unless and until our board reinstates the AHR DRIP Offering, stockholders who are current participants in the AHR DRIP will be paid future distributions in cash. See Note 1, Organization and Description of Business — Public Offerings, and the “Distribution Reinvestment Plan” section below for a further discussion.
We effected a one-for-four reverse split of our common stock on November 15, 2022 and a corresponding reverse split of the partnership units in our operating partnership. As a result of the Reverse Splits, every four shares of our common stock or four partnership units in our operating partnership were automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of our common stock of like class, or one partnership unit of like class, as applicable, rounded to the nearest 1/100th share or unit. The Reverse Splits impacted all classes of common stock and partnership units proportionately and had no impact on any stockholder’s or partner’s ownership percentage. Neither the number of authorized shares nor the par value of the Class T common stock and Class I common stock were ultimately impacted. All numbers of common shares and per share data, as well as partnership units in our operating partnership, in our accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to the Reverse Splits.
On February 9, 2024, we closed the 2024 Offering and issued 64,400,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, for a total of $772,800,000 in gross proceeds, including the exercise in full of the underwriters’ overallotment option to purchase up to an additional 8,400,000 shares of common stock. In conjunction with the 2024 Offering, such shares of common stock were listed on the NYSE and began trading on February 7, 2024.
Our Class T common stock and Class I common stock are identical to our common stock, except that such shares are not currently listed on the NYSE or any other national securities exchange. Upon the six month anniversary of the listing of our common stock for trading on the NYSE, which is August 5, 2024, each share of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock will automatically, and without any stockholder action, convert into one share of our listed common stock.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Our DRIP allowed our stockholders to elect to reinvest an amount equal to the distributions declared on their shares of common stock in additional shares of our common stock in lieu of receiving cash distributions. However, on November 14, 2022, our board suspended the DRIP offering beginning with the distributions declared for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. As a result of the suspension of the DRIP offering, unless and until our board reinstates the DRIP offering, stockholders who are current participants in the DRIP were or will be paid distributions in cash. As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, a total of $91,448,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 2,431,695 shares of common stock being issued pursuant to the AHR DRIP Offering.
Since October 5, 2016, our board had approved and established an estimated per share net asset value, or NAV, annually. Commencing with the distribution payment to stockholders paid in the month following such board approval, shares of our common stock issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan were issued at the current estimated per share NAV until such time as our board determined an updated estimated per share NAV.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no distributions reinvested and no shares of our common stock were issued pursuant to our DRIP offerings. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, $36,812,000 and $7,666,000, respectively, in distributions were reinvested and 992,964 and 207,866 shares of our common stock, respectively, were issued pursuant to our DRIP offerings.

Share Repurchase Plan
Our share repurchase plan allowed for repurchases of shares of our common stock by us when certain criteria are met. Share repurchases were made at the sole discretion of our board. Subject to the availability of the funds for share repurchases and other certain conditions, we generally limited the number of shares of our common stock repurchased during any calendar year to 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year; provided however, that shares subject to a repurchase requested upon the death or “qualifying disability,” as defined in our share repurchase plan, of a stockholder were not subject to this cap. Funds for the repurchase of shares of our common stock came from the cumulative proceeds we received from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP offerings.
Pursuant to our share repurchase plan, the repurchase price is equal to the lesser of (i) the amount per share that a stockholder paid for their shares of our common stock, or (ii) the most recent estimated value of one share of our common stock, as determined by our board, except that the repurchase price with respect to repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders was equal to the most recently published estimated per share NAV. On October 4, 2021, as a result of the Merger, our board authorized the partial reinstatement of our share repurchase plan with respect to requests to repurchase shares resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, effective with respect to qualifying repurchases for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021. All share repurchase requests other than those requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders were rejected. On November 14, 2022, our board suspended our share repurchase plan beginning with share repurchase requests for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. All share repurchase requests, including requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2022, will not be processed, will be considered canceled in full and will not be considered outstanding repurchase requests.
For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we repurchased 1,681, 559,195 and 10,356 shares of our common stock, respectively, for an aggregate of $62,000, $20,699,000 and $382,000, respectively, at an average repurchase price of $37.16, $37.02 and $36.88 per share, respectively, pursuant to our share repurchase plan. All shares were repurchased using the cumulative proceeds we received from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP offerings.
Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity
Membership Interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, Trilogy REIT Holdings owned approximately 97.5% and 96.2%, respectively, of Trilogy. Prior to October 1, 2021, we were the indirect owner of a 70.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings pursuant to an amended joint venture agreement with an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of NorthStar Healthcare Income, Inc., or NHI, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of GAHR IV Operating Partnership. We serve as the managing member of Trilogy REIT Holdings. In connection with the Merger, the wholly-owned subsidiary of GAHR IV Operating Partnership sold its 6.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings to GAHR III, thereby increasing our indirect ownership in Trilogy REIT Holdings to 76.0%. Through September 30, 2021, 30.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to noncontrolling interests, and since October 1, 2021, 24.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to a noncontrolling interest.
On November 3, 2023, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, or the MIPA, with subsidiaries of NHI, which provides us with the option to purchase their 24.0% minority membership interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings. If we exercise this purchase option, we will own 100% of Trilogy REIT Holdings, which (assuming that there are no changes in the equity capitalization of Trilogy prior to consummation of the purchase) will in turn cause us to indirectly own approximately 97.5% of Trilogy. Subject to our first satisfying certain closing conditions, the option is exercisable for a closing before September 30, 2025 assuming that we exercise both extension options described below. If we exercise our purchase option, the all-cash purchase price would be $240,500,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, would increase to $247,000,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024 and would further increase to $260,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025.
The MIPA also allows us (at our election), instead of paying all cash, to consummate the purchase transaction by using a combination of cash and the issuance of new Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, or our Convertible Preferred Stock, as purchase price consideration. We must pay at least a minimum amount of the purchase price in cash, in which case we would pay the remaining amount in shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. The minimum cash amount will be $24,050,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, $24,700,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024, or $26,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025. If issued, our Convertible Preferred Stock will be perpetual, will have a cumulative cash dividend with an

initial annual rate of 4.75% (on the liquidation preference per share of $25.00 of our Convertible Preferred Stock) and will be redeemable by us at any time. The annual dividend rate will increase over time, and the redemption price will vary based on the date of redemption. In addition, holders of shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock will have the right, at any time on or after July 1, 2026 and from time to time, to convert some or all of such shares into shares of our common stock, subject to certain customary exceptions. As of December 31, 2023, we did not exercise the MIPA purchase option.
Other Noncontrolling Interests
In connection with our acquisition and operation of Trilogy, profit interest units in Trilogy, or the Profit Interests, were issued to Trilogy Management Services, LLC and an independent director of Trilogy, both unaffiliated third parties that manage or direct the day-to-day operations of Trilogy. The Profit Interests consisted of time-based or performance-based commitments. The time-based Profit Interests were measured at their grant date fair value and vest in increments of 20.0% on each anniversary of the respective grant date over a five year period. We amortized the time-based Profit Interests on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods, which are recorded to general and administrative in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The performance-based Profit Interests were subject to a performance commitment and would have vested upon liquidity events as defined in the Profit Interests agreements. The performance-based Profit Interests were measured at their fair value on the adoption date of ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, using a modified retrospective approach. The nonvested awards are presented as noncontrolling interests in total equity in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and are re-classified to redeemable noncontrolling interests upon vesting as they had redemption features outside of our control similar to the common stock units held by members of Trilogy’s management. See Note 13,12, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, for a further discussion.
In December 2021, we redeemed a part of the time-based Profit Interests and all of the performance-based Profit Interests that were included in noncontrolling interests in total equity. We redeemed such Profit Interests for $16,517,000, which was paid $8,650,000 in cash and $7,867,000 through the issuance of additional equity interests in Trilogy that are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our consolidated balance sheets. There were no canceled, expired or exercised Profit Interests during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we recognized stock compensation expense related to the Profit Interests of $83,000, $83,000 and $8,801,000, respectively.
One of our consolidated subsidiaries issued non-voting preferred shares of beneficial interests to qualified investors for total proceeds of $125,000. These preferred shares of beneficial interests are entitled to receive cumulative preferential cash dividends at the rate of 12.5% per annum. We classify the value of the subsidiary’s preferred shares of beneficial interests as noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the dividends of the preferred shares of beneficial interests in net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, we owned an 86.0% interest in a consolidated limited liability company that owns Lakeview IN Medical Plaza. As such, 14.0% of the net earnings of Lakeview IN Medical Plaza were allocated to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. On February 6, 2024, we purchased the 14.0% membership interest in the consolidated limited liability company that owns Lakeview IN Medical Plaza from an unaffiliated third party for a contract purchase price of $441,000. In connection with such purchase and as of such date, we own a 100% interest in such limited liability company.
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, we owned a 90.6% membership interest in a consolidated limited liability company that owns Southlake TX Hospital. As such, 9.4% of the net earnings of Southlake TX Hospital were allocated to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.
Upon consummation of the Merger, through our operating partnership, we acquired an approximate 90.0% interest in a joint venture that owns the Louisiana Senior Housing Portfolio. As such, 10.0% of the net earnings of the joint venture were allocated to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss since October 1, 2021.

Equity Compensation Plans
GAHR III 2013 Incentive Plan
Prior to the REIT Merger, GAHR III adopted the Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. Incentive Plan, or the 2013 Incentive Plan, pursuant to which its board, or a committee of its independent directors, could grant options, shares of our common stock, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to its independent directors, employees and consultants.
Under the 2013 Incentive Plan, GAHR III granted an aggregate of 33,750 shares of its restricted common stock, or I RSAs as defined below, which is equal to 31,273 shares of restricted Class I common stock, using the conversion ratio of 0.9266 shares of GAHR IV Class I common stock for each share of GAHR III restricted common stock, as determined in the Merger. Such restricted shares vest as to 20.0% of the shares on the date of grant and on each anniversary thereafter over four years from the date of grant and are subject to continuous service through the vesting dates. As of the Merger date, 4,170 shares such I RSAs remained unvested with a weighted average grant date fair value of $40.38.
AHR Incentive Plan
Pursuant to the AHR Incentive Plan, our board (with respect to options and restricted shares of common stock granted to independent directors), or our compensation committee (with respect to any other award), may grant options, restricted shares of common stock, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to our independent directors, officers, employees and consultants. The AHR Incentive Plan terminates on June 15, 2033, and the maximum number of shares of our common stock that may be issued pursuant to such plan is 4,000,000 shares.
Restricted common stock
Pursuant to the AHR Incentive Plan, through December 31, 2023, we granted an aggregate of 315,459 shares of our restricted common stock, or RSAs, which include restricted Class T common stock and restricted Class I common stock, as defined in the AHR Incentive Plan. RSAs were granted to our independent directors in connection with their initial election or re-election to our board or in consideration of their past services rendered. In addition, certain executive officers and key employees received grants of restricted Class T common stock. In February 2024, we also granted an aggregate of 972,222 RSAs to independent directors, executive officers and certain employees upon completion of the 2024 Offering. RSAs generally have a vesting period ranging from one to four years and are subject to continuous service through the vesting dates.
Restricted stock units

14. Related Party Transactions
Derivative Financial Instruments
On January 25, 2022, ourWe are exposed to the effect of interest rate swapchanges in the normal course of business. We seek to mitigate these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, which include the occasional use of derivatives. Our primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts, maturedsuch as fixed-rate interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements by effectively converting a portion of our variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
Derivatives are recognized as either other assets or other liabilities in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are measured at fair value. We do not designate our derivative instruments as hedge instruments as defined by guidance under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedges, or ASC Topic 815, which allows for gains and losses on derivatives designated as hedges to be offset by the change in value of the hedged items or to be deferred in other comprehensive income (loss). Changes in the fair value of our derivative financial instruments are recorded as a component of interest expense in gain or loss in fair value of derivative financial instruments in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
See Note 10, Derivative Financial Instruments, and Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion of our derivative financial instruments.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of certain assets and liabilities is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, we follow a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of our reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and our reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
See Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion.
Other Assets, Net
Other assets, net primarily consists of inventory, prepaid expenses and deposits, deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit, deferred rent receivables, deferred tax assets, investments in unconsolidated entities, lease inducements and lease commissions. Inventory consists primarily of pharmaceutical and medical supplies and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit include amounts paid to lenders and others to obtain such financing. Such costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest rate method. Amortization of deferred financing costs related to our lines of credit is included in interest expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Lease commissions are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease. Prepaid expenses are amortized over the related contract periods.
We report investments in unconsolidated entities using the equity method of accounting when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies. Under the equity method, our share of the investee’s
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
earnings or losses is included in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. We generally do not recognize equity method losses when such losses exceed our net equity method investment balance unless we have committed to provide such investee additional financial support or guaranteed its obligations. To the extent that our cost basis is different from the basis reflected at the entity level, the basis difference is generally amortized over the lives of the related assets and liabilities, and such amortization is included in our share of equity in earnings of the entity. The initial carrying value of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the entity interest or the estimated fair value of the assets prior to the sale of interests in the entity. We have elected to follow the cumulative earnings approach when classifying distributions received from equity method investments in our consolidated statements of cash flows, whereby any distributions received up to the amount of cumulative equity earnings will be considered a return on investment and classified in operating activities and any excess distributions would be considered a return of investment and classified in investing activities. We evaluate our equity method investments for impairment based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value of the equity method investment to its carrying value. When we determine a decline in the estimated fair value of such an investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary, an impairment is recorded.
See Note 7, Other Assets, Net, for a further discussion.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily include insurance reserves of $44,548,000 and $39,893,000, respectively, reimbursement of payroll-related costs to the managers of our SHOP and integrated senior health campuses of $42,698,000 and $38,624,000, respectively, accrued developments and capital expenditures to unaffiliated third parties of $24,881,000 and $30,211,000, respectively, accrued property taxes of $23,549,000 and $24,926,000, respectively, and accrued distributions to common stockholders of $16,557,000 and $26,484,000, respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
We follow ASC Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, or ASC Topic 718, to account for our stock compensation pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated 2015 Incentive Plan, or the AHR Incentive Plan, using the fair value method, which requires an estimate of fair value of the award at the time of grant and recognition of compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. Forfeitures of stock based awards are recognized as an adjustment to compensation expense as they occur. Awards granted under the AHR Incentive Plan consist of restricted stock or units issued to our executive officers and employees, in addition to restricted stock issued to our directors. See Note 13, Equity — Equity Compensation Plans, for a further discussion of awards granted under the AHR Incentive Plan.

We have real estate investments in the United Kingdom, or UK, and Isle of Man for which the functional currency is the UK Pound Sterling, or GBP. We translate the results of operations of our foreign real estate investments into United States Dollars, or USD, using the average currency rates of exchange in effect during the period, and we translate assets and liabilities using the currency exchange rate in effect at the end of the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders’ equity, in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Certain balance sheet items, primarily equity and capital-related accounts, are reflected at the historical currency exchange rates. We also have intercompany notes and payables denominated in GBP with our UK subsidiaries. Gains or losses resulting from remeasuring such intercompany notes and payables into USD at the end of each reporting period are reflected in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. When such intercompany notes and payables are deemed to be of a long-term investment nature, they will be reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are remeasured into USD at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transactions. The effects of transaction gains or losses are included in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Income Taxes
We qualify, and elect to be taxed, as a REIT under the Code, and we intend to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute to our stockholders a minimum of 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes if we distribute 100% of our taxable income each year to our stockholders.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT in any taxable year, we will then be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could have a material adverse effect on our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We may be subject to certain state and local income taxes on our income, property or net worth in some jurisdictions, and, in certain circumstances, we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain activities that we undertake are conducted by subsidiaries, which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, to allow us to provide services that would otherwise be considered impermissible for REITs. Also, we have real estate investments in the UK and Isle of Man, which do not accord REIT status to United States REITs under their tax laws. Accordingly, we recognize an income tax benefit or expense for the federal, state and local income taxes incurred by our TRS and foreign income taxes on our real estate investments in the UK and Isle of Man.
We account for deferred income taxes using the asset and liability method and recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in our financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets reflect the impact of the future deductibility of operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided if we believe it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Any increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes us to change our judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset, is included in income tax benefit or expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss when such changes occur. Any increase or decrease in the deferred tax liability that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes us to change our judgment about expected future tax consequences of events, is recorded in income tax benefit or expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Net deferred tax assets are included in other assets, or net deferred tax liabilities are included in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities, in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
See Note 16, Income Taxes, for a further discussion.
Segment Disclosure
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, we modified how we evaluate our business and make resource allocations, and therefore determined that we operate through four reportable business segments; integrated senior health campuses, OM (which was formerly known as MOBs), triple-net leased properties and SHOP. All segment information included in the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements has been recast for all periods presented to reflect four reportable business segments and the change in segment name from MOBs to OM. The segment name change from MOBs to OM did not result in any changes to the composition of such segment or information reviewed by management, and therefore, had no impact on the historical results of operations.
See Note 18, Segment Reporting, for a further discussion.

GLA and other measures used to describe real estate investments included in our accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on an unaudited basis.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform of Financial Reporting, or ASU 2020-04, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria. ASU 2020-04 applies to the aforementioned transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), or ASU 2021-01, which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modification and hedge accounting apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining,

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of the discontinuation of the use of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate due to reference rate reform. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, or ASU 2022-06, which extends the period of time entities can utilize the reference rate reform relief guidance under ASU 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU 2020-04, ASU 2021-01 and ASU 2022-06 are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after March 12, 2020 and through the effective date December 31, 2024, as extended by ASU 2022-06. We adopted such accounting pronouncements on January 1, 2023, which has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures as of December 31, 2023.
In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280-General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock, or ASU 2023-03. ASU 2023-03 amends the Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, for SEC updates pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120; SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 Emerging Issues Task Force Meeting; and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock. These updates were immediately effective and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations — Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805- 60): Recognition and Initial Measurement, or ASU 2023-05. ASU 2023-05 applies to the initial formation of a “joint venture” or a “corporate joint venture” as defined in the accounting literature and requires a joint venture to apply a new basis of accounting by initially measuring and recognizing all contributions received upon its formation at fair value. In particular, a joint venture will measure its total assets and liabilities upon formation as the fair value of the joint venture as a whole, which would equal the fair value of all of the joint venture’s outstanding equity interests. The new guidance does not change the definition of a joint venture, the accounting by the investors for their investments in a joint venture (e.g., equity method accounting) or the accounting by a joint venture for contributions received after its formation. ASU 2023-05 will be applied prospectively and is effective for all newly-formed joint venture entities with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-05 on January 1, 2025 to have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, or ASU 2023-07, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. Such disclosure amendments include the requirement for public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 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 and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, or ASU 2023-09, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. The final rules require a registrant to disclose, among other things: material climate-related risks; activities to mitigate or adapt to such risks, as well as a quantitative and qualitative description of material expenditures incurred and material impacts on financial estimates and assumptions that directly result from such mitigation or adaptation activities; material capitalized costs, expenses and losses incurred as a result of severe weather events and other natural conditions; information about the registrant’s board of directors’ oversight of climate-related risks and management’s role in managing material climate-related risks; and information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the registrant’s business, results of operations or financial condition. The rules require registrants to provide such climate-related disclosures in their annual reports, beginning with annual reports for the year ending December 31, 2025, for calendar-year-end large accelerated filers. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact to our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

2021 Disposition of Real Estate Investment
In July 2021, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, sold an integrated senior health campus, or the Sold Property, to an unaffiliated third party, or the Buyer, and leased it back, while retaining control of the Sold Property. This transaction did not meet the criteria for a sale and leaseback under GAAP. The lease agreement includes a finance obligation with a present value of $15,504,000 representing our obligation to purchase the Sold Property between 2028 and 2029. Simultaneously, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, purchased a previously leased integrated senior health campus, or the Purchased Property, from the Buyer which was in exchange for the Sold Property. No cash consideration was exchanged as part of the transactions explained above. As of the transaction date, the carrying value of the Purchased Property of $14,807,000 was recorded to real estate investments, net, in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet, and the carrying value of the finance obligation of $15,504,000 was recorded to financing obligations in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Sale of Controlling Interests in Developments
On February 8, 2022, we sold approximately 74.0% of our ownership interests in several real estate development assets within our integrated senior health campuses segment for an aggregate sales price of $19,622,000, and we recognized an aggregate gain on sale of $$683,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022. At the time of sale, we retained approximately 26.0% ownership interests in such real estate development assets. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we own approximately 49.0% and 31.6% ownership interests, respectively, in such real estate development assets, which interests are accounted for as investments in unconsolidated entities within other assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023 and from February 8, 2022 through December 31, 2022, our interests in the net earnings or losses of such unconsolidated entities were included in income or loss from unconsolidated entities in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
See Note 4, Business Combinations, for a discussion of real estate investment acquisitions accounted for business combinations for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.
Impairment of Real Estate Investments
For the year ended December 31, 2023, as we continue to evaluate additional non-strategic properties for sale, we determined that two of our SHOP and one of our OM buildings were impaired and recognized an aggregate impairment charge of $13,899,000, which reduced the total aggregate carrying value of such assets to $20,439,000. The remaining $3,477,000 carrying value of one of the impaired SHOP was reclassified to properties held for sale during the third quarter of 2023, which is included in other assets, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of one SHOP was based on its projected sales price from an independent third party letter of intent, and the fair value of such OM was determined by the sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third-party buyer, which were considered Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the other SHOP was determined by a third-party appraiser based on the sales comparison approach with the most significant inputs based on a price per unit and price per square foot analysis within the area for similar types of assets. The ranges of these inputs were $190,000 to $200,000 per unit and $250 to $260 per square foot, which were considered Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, we determined that 12 facilities within our SHOP segment were impaired and recognized an aggregate impairment charge of $54,579,000, which reduced the total aggregate carrying value of such facilities to $81,149,000. We disposed of three of such impaired facilities during the fourth quarter of 2022, and disposed of five of such impaired facilities during the year of 2023, as discussed in the “Dispositions of Real Estate Investments” section above. The fair value of one of our impaired facilities was determined by the sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third-party buyer, which was considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of our remaining 11 impaired facilities were based on their projected sales prices, which were considered Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, we determined that one OM building was impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $3,335,000, which reduced the carrying value of such asset to $2,880,000. The fair value of such property was determined by the sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third-party buyer, and adjusted for anticipated selling costs, which was considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. We disposed of such impaired OM building in July 2021 for a contract sales price of $3,000,000 and recognized a net gain on sale of $346,000.

4. Business Combinations
2023 and 2022 Business Combinations
On February 15, 2023, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired from an unaffiliated third party a 60.0% controlling interest in a privately held company, Memory Care Partners, LLC, or MCP, that operated integrated senior health campuses located in Kentucky. The contract purchase price for the acquisition of MCP was $900,000, which was acquired using cash on hand. Prior to such acquisition, we owned a 40.0% interest in MCP, which was accounted for as an equity method investment and was included in investments in unconsolidated entities within other assets, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. In connection with the acquisition of the remaining interest in MCP, we now own a 100% controlling interest in MCP. As a result, we re-measured the fair value of our previously held equity interest in MCP and recognized a gain on re-measurement of $726,000 in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, we accounted for four acquisitions as business combinations, as discussed below, the first three of which are included within our integrated senior health campuses segment. Based on quantitative and qualitative considerations, such four business combinations were not material to us individually or in the aggregate, and, therefore, pro forma financial information is not provided.
On January 3, 2022, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired an integrated senior health campus in Kentucky from an unaffiliated third party. The contract purchase price for such property acquisition was $27,790,000 plus immaterial transaction costs. We acquired such property using cash on hand and placed a mortgage loan payable of $20,800,000 on the property at the time of acquisition.
On April 1, 2022, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired a 50.0% interest in a pharmaceutical business in Florida from an unaffiliated third party and incurred transaction costs of $938,000. Prior to such pharmaceutical business acquisition, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, owned the other 50.0% interest in such business, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. Therefore, through March 31, 2022, our 50.0% interest in the net earnings or losses of such unconsolidated entity was included in income or loss from unconsolidated entities in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
On August 1, 2022, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy, acquired a 50.0% controlling interest in a privately held company, RHS Partners, LLC, or RHS, that owns and/or operates 16 integrated senior health campuses located in Indiana, from an unaffiliated third party. The contract purchase price for the acquisition of RHS was $36,661,000 plus immaterial closing costs, which was primarily acquired using cash on hand. Prior to such acquisition, we owned a 50.0% interest in RHS, which was accounted for as an equity method investment and was included in investments in unconsolidated entities within other assets, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. Therefore, through July 31, 2022, our 50.0% equity interest in the net earnings or losses of RHS was included in income or loss from unconsolidated entities in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. In connection with the acquisition of the remaining interest in RHS, we now own a 100% controlling interest in RHS. As a result, we re-measured the fair value of our previously held equity interest in RHS and recognized a gain on re-measurement of $19,567,000 in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
On December 5, 2022, we acquired a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas from an unaffiliated third party, which facilities are included in our SHOP segment. These facilities are part of the underlying collateral pool of real estate assets securing our debt security investment, as defined and described at Note 5, Debt Security Investment, Net. We acquired the seven facilities by assuming the outstanding principal balance of each related mortgage loan payable from one of the borrowers as such borrower was in default on the required debt payments. The aggregated principal balance of such assumed mortgage loans payable was $110,627,000 at the time of acquisition. No cash consideration was exchanged as part of the transactions; however, we incurred transaction costs of $1,895,000 related to the acquisition of such facilities. See Note 5, Debt Security Investment, Net, for a further discussion.

2021 Business Combinations — Merger and the AHI Acquisition
As discussed in Note 1, Organization and Description of Business, on October 1, 2021, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 23, 2021, we completed the REIT Merger and Partnership Merger. At the effective time of the REIT Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, each issued and outstanding share of GAHR III’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, converted into the right to receive 0.9266 shares of GAHR IV’s Class I common stock, $0.01 par value per share. At the effective time of the Partnership Merger and prior to the reverse stock split, (i) each unit of limited partnership interest in our operating partnership outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive 0.9266 of a Partnership Class I Unit, as defined in the agreement of limited partnership, as amended, of the Surviving Partnership and (ii) each unit of limited partnership interest in GAHR IV Operating Partnership outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Partnership Merger was converted automatically into the right to receive one unit of limited partnership interest of the Surviving Partnership of like class.
Additionally, on October 1, 2021, the AHI Acquisition closed immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, and pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, AHI contributed substantially all of its business and operations to the Surviving Partnership, including its interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor, and Griffin Capital contributed its ownership interest in GAHR III Advisor and GAHR IV Advisor to the Surviving Partnership. In exchange for their contributions, the Surviving Partnership issued limited OP units. The total approximate value of these OP units at the time of consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, and prior to the reverse stock split, was approximately $131,674,000, with a reference value for purposes thereof of $8.71 per OP unit, such that the Surviving Partnership issued 15,117,529 OP units as consideration for the transaction. Such OP units were owned by AHI Group Holdings, LLC, or AHI Group Holdings, which is owned and controlled by the AHI Principals, Platform Healthcare Investor T-II, LLC, Flaherty Trust and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital, or collectively, the NewCo Sellers.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Further, upon consummation of the AHI Acquisition, we redeemed all 51 limited partnership units that our former advisor held in our operating partnership, as well as all 52 limited partnership units held by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV Operating Partnership. Also, on October 1, 2021 and in connection with the AHI Acquisition, our operating partnership redeemed all 5,148 shares of our common stock owned by our former advisor and all 5,208 shares of our Class T common stock owned by GAHR IV Advisor in GAHR IV.
The AHI Acquisition was treated as a business combination for accounting purposes, with GAHR III as both the legal and accounting acquiror of NewCo. While GAHR IV was the legal acquiror of GAHR III in the REIT Merger, GAHR III was determined to be the accounting acquiror in the REIT Merger in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, or ASC Topic 805, after considering the relative share ownership and the composition of the governing body of the Combined Company. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the consummation of the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects results of the Combined Company, and the financial information set forth herein prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition reflects GAHR III’s results. For this reason, period-to-period comparisons may not be meaningful.
Purchase Consideration

________________(1)Represents the fair value of GAHR III common stock that is deemed to be issued for accounting purposes only. Taking into consideration the impact of the reverse stock split, the fair value of the purchase consideration is calculated based on 22,045,766 shares of common stock deemed to be issued by GAHR III at the fair value per share of $34.84.
(2)Represents the fair value of additional interest acquired in GAHR III’s subsidiary, Trilogy REIT Holdings, LLC, or Trilogy REIT Holdings. The acquisition of additional interest in Trilogy is accounted for separately from the REIT Merger in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, or ASC Topic 810. See Note 13, Equity — Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity, for a discussion of the Trilogy transaction.
AHI Acquisition
The fair value of the purchase consideration transferred was calculated as follows (in thousands):

________________(1)Taking into consideration the impact of the reverse stock split, the amount represents the estimated fair value of the 3,779,382 Surviving Partnership OP units issued as consideration, with a reference value for purposes thereof of $34.84 per unit. The issuance of Surviving Partnership OP units was accounted for separately from the AHI Acquisition.
(2)Represents the estimated fair value of contingent consideration based on the performance of a possible private investment fund under consideration by AHI. We have no definitive plans to establish the investment fund, and, therefore, the fair value of contingent consideration was estimated to be $0.

Acquisition-related Costs
The Merger and the AHI Acquisition were accounted for as business combinations, and as a result, acquisition-related costs incurred in connection with these transactions of $14,060,000 were expensed and included in business acquisition expenses in our accompanying consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Acquisition-related costs of $6,753,000 were incurred by GAHR IV in the period before the consummation of the Merger and are therefore not reflected in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 as GAHR III was the accounting acquiror in the Merger under ASC Topic 805, as further explained above.
Fair Value of Noncontrolling Interests
The fair value of the redeemable and nonredeemable noncontrolling interest in GAHR IV was estimated by applying the income approach based on a discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The key assumptions applied in the income approach include the estimates of stabilized occupancy, market rents, capitalization rates and discount rates.
AHI Acquisition — Goodwill
In connection with the AHI Acquisition, we recorded goodwill of $134,589,000 as a result of the consideration exceeding the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill represents the estimated future benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill recognized in this transaction is not deductible for tax purposes. See Note 18, Segment Reporting, for a further discussion.

5. Debt Security Investment, Net
Our investment in a commercial mortgage-backed debt security, or debt security, bears an interest rate on the stated principal amount thereof equal to 4.24% per annum, the terms of which security provide for monthly interest-only payments. The debt security has underlying tranches that mature between August 25, 2025 and January 1, 2028 at an aggregate stated
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
amount of $93,433,000, resulting in an anticipated yield-to-maturity of 10.0% per annum. The debt security was issued by an unaffiliated mortgage trust and represents a 10.0% beneficial ownership interest in such mortgage trust. The debt security is subordinate to all other interests in the mortgage trust and is not guaranteed by a government-sponsored entity.
On December 5, 2022, we acquired a portfolio of seven senior housing facilities in Texas from an unaffiliated third party, which facilities are included in the underlying collateral pool securing our debt security investment. We acquired the seven facilities by assuming the outstanding principal balance of each related mortgage loan payable from one of the borrowers as such borrower was in default on the required debt payments. We did not grant any concessions to such borrowers, and the carrying value of our debt security investment at the time of acquisition did not exceed the fair value of such facilities. See Note 4, Business Combinations — 2022 and 2023 Business Combinations, for a further discussion of such acquisitions.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying amount of the debt security investment was $86,935,000 and $83,000,000, respectively, net of unamortized closing costs of $489,000 and $767,000, respectively. Accretion on the debt security for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021was $4,213,000, $3,922,000 and $3,665,000, respectively, which is recorded as an increase to real estate revenue in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Amortization expense of closing costs for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $278,000, $237,000 and $201,000, respectively, which is recorded as a decrease to real estate revenue in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. We evaluated credit quality indicators such as the agency ratings and the underlying collateral of such investment in order to determine expected future credit loss. No credit loss was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

In March 2023, we transitioned our SNFs within Central Wisconsin Senior Care Portfolio from triple-net leased properties to a RIDEA structure, which resulted in a full amortization of $8,073,000 of above-market leases and $885,000 of in-place leases. In addition, we fully amortized $2,756,000 of above-market leases and $5,750,000 of in-place leases in connection with the transition of our senior housing facilities within Michigan ALF Portfolio from triple-net leased properties to a RIDEA structure in November 2023.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
For the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized an impairment loss of approximately $10,520,000 related to the write-off of trade name intangible assets at ancillary business units within Trilogy. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we did not recognize any impairment losses with respect to trade name intangible assets.
Amortization expense on below-market leases for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $4,534,000, $1,848,000 and $396,000, respectively, which is recorded as an increase to real estate revenue in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. In connection with the transition of our senior housing facilities within Michigan ALF Portfolio to a RIDEA structure in November 2023, we fully amortized $112,000 of below-market leases.
The aggregate weighted average remaining life of the identified intangible assets was 7.8 years and 7.7 years as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The aggregate weighted average remaining life of the identified intangible liabilities was 7.2 years and 8.4 years as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

9. Lines of Credit and Term Loan
2022 Credit Facility
On January 19, 2022, we, through our operating partnership, as borrower, and certain of our subsidiaries, or the subsidiary guarantors, collectively as guarantors, entered into an agreement, or the 2022 Credit Agreement, to amend and restate the credit agreement for our existing credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., or Bank of America, KeyBank National Association, Citizens Bank, National Association, and the lenders named therein. The 2022 Credit Agreement provided for a credit facility with an aggregate maximum principal amount up to $1,050,000,000, or the 2022 Credit Facility, which consisted of a senior unsecured revolving credit facility in the initial aggregate amount of $500,000,000 and a senior unsecured term loan facility in the initial aggregate amount of $550,000,000. The proceeds of loans made under the 2022 Credit Facility could have been used for refinancing existing indebtedness and for general corporate purposes including for working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes not inconsistent with obligations under the 2022 Credit Agreement. We could have also obtained up to $25,000,000 in the form of standby letters of credit pursuant to the 2022 Credit Facility. Unless defined herein, all capitalized terms under this “2022 Credit Facility” subsection are defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement.
Under the terms of the 2022 Credit Agreement, the revolving loans matured on January 19, 2026, and could have been extended for one 12-month period, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including payment of an extension fee. The term loan would have matured on January 19, 2027, and could not be extended. The maximum principal amount of the 2022 Credit Facility could have been increased by an aggregate incremental amount of $700,000,000, subject to: (i) the terms of the 2022 Credit Agreement; and (ii) at least five business days’ prior written notice to Bank of America.
The 2022 Credit Facility bore interest at varying rates based upon, at our option, (i) Daily SOFR, plus the Applicable Rate for Daily SOFR Rate Loans or (ii) the Term SOFR, plus the Applicable Rate for Term SOFR Rate Loans. If, under the terms of the 2022 Credit Agreement, there was an inability to determine the Daily SOFR or the Term SOFR then the 2022 Credit Facility bore interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans. The loans could have been repaid in whole or in part without prepayment premium or penalty, subject to certain conditions.
The 2022 Credit Agreement required us to add additional subsidiaries as guarantors in the event the value of the assets owned by the subsidiary guarantors fell below a certain threshold as set forth in the 2022 Credit Agreement. In the event of default, Bank of America had the right to terminate the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any derivativeobligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions under the 2022 Credit Agreement, and to accelerate the payment on any unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans and interest thereon. On March 1, 2023, we entered into an amendment to the 2022 Credit Agreement, or the First Amendment. The material terms of the First Amendment provided for revisions to certain financial instruments. We usedcovenants for a limited period of time. Except as modified by the terms of the First Amendment, the material terms of the 2022 Credit Agreement remained in full force and effect.
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, our aggregate borrowing capacity under the 2022 Credit Facility was $1,050,000,000, excluding the $25,000,000 in standby letters of credit described above. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, borrowings outstanding under the 2022 Credit Facility totaled $914,900,000 ($914,144,000, net of deferred financing costs related to the senior unsecured term loan facility portion of the 2022 Credit Facility) and $965,900,000 ($965,060,000, net of deferred financing costs related to the senior unsecured term loan facility portion of the 2022 Credit Facility), respectively, and the weighted average interest rate on such borrowings outstanding was 7.08% and 6.07% per annum, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we entered into interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk associated with the entire $550,000,000 outstanding borrowing amount of our term loan. See Note 10, Derivative Financial Instruments, for a further discussion.

In January 2022, in connection with the 2022 Credit Agreement, we incurred an aggregate $3,161,000 loss on the extinguishment of a portion of senior unsecured term loan related to former credit facilities. Such loss on extinguishment of debt is recorded as an increase to interest expense in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, and primarily consisted of lender fees we paid to obtain the 2022 Credit Facility.
On February 14, 2024, we, through our operating partnership, entered into an agreement, or the 2024 Credit Agreement, that amends, restates, supersedes and replaces the 2022 Credit Agreement. See Note 21, Subsequent Events — 2024 Credit Facility, for a further discussion.
2019 Trilogy Credit Facility
We, through Trilogy RER, LLC, are party to an amended and restated loan agreement, or the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, among certain subsidiaries of Trilogy OpCo, LLC, Trilogy RER, LLC, and Trilogy Pro Services, LLC; KeyBank; CIT Bank, N.A.; Regions Bank; KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc.; Regions Capital Markets; Bank of America; The Huntington National Bank; and a syndicate of other banks, as lenders named therein, with respect to a senior secured revolving credit facility that had an aggregate maximum principal amount of $360,000,000, consisting of: (i) a $325,000,000 secured revolver supported by real estate assets and ancillary business cash flow and (ii) a $35,000,000 accounts receivable revolving credit facility supported by eligible accounts receivable, or the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility. The proceeds of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility may be used for acquisitions, debt repayment and general corporate purposes. The maximum principal amount of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility could be increased by up to $140,000,000, for a total principal amount of $500,000,000, subject to certain conditions. Unless defined herein, all capitalized terms under this “2019 Trilogy Credit Facility” subsection are defined in the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, as amended.
On December 20, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, or the 2019 Trilogy Credit Amendment. The material terms of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Amendment provided for an increase to the secured revolver amount from $325,000,000 to $365,000,000, thereby increasing our aggregate maximum principal amount under the credit facility from $360,000,000 to $400,000,000. In addition, all references to LIBOR were replaced with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR. On March 30, 2023, we further amended the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement to update the definition of Implied Debt Service, which is used to calculate the Real Estate Borrowing Base Availability, for interest rate capschanges and to add an annual interest-only payment calculation option. Except as modified by the terms of the amendments, the material terms of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect.
The 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility was due to mature on September 5, 2023; however, pursuant to the terms of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, at such time we extended the maturity date for one 12-month period to mature on September 5, 2024, and paid an extension fee of $600,000. On December 21, 2023, we further amended such agreement to extend the maturity date to June 5, 2025 and paid an extension fee of $745,000. At our option, the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility bears interest at per annum rates equal to (a) SOFR, plus 2.75% for SOFR Rate Loans and (b) for Base Rate Loans, 1.75% plus the highest of: (i) the fluctuating rate per annum of interest in effect for such day as established from time to time by KeyBank as its prime rate, (ii) 0.50% above the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and (iii) 1.00% above one-month Adjusted Term SOFR.
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, our aggregate borrowing capacity under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility was $400,000,000. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, borrowings outstanding under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility totaled $309,823,000 and $316,734,000, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate on such borrowings outstanding was 8.20% and 7.17% per annum, respectively. On December 21, 2023, we, through Trilogy RER, LLC, entered into an interest rate swap transaction to mitigate the risk with respect to $200,000,000 of our borrowings under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility. See Note 10, Derivative Financial Instruments, for a further discussion.

10. Derivative Financial Instruments
We use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk associated with variable-rate debt. We recorded such derivative financial instruments in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or a liability, as applicable, measured at fair value. We did not have any derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2022. The following table lists the derivative financial instruments held by us as of December 31, 2023, which were included in other assets and other liabilities in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets (dollars in thousands): | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Instrument | | Notional Amount | | Index | | Interest Rate | | Effective Date | | Maturity Date | | | | Fair Value

| Swap | | $ | 275,000 | | | one month
Term SOFR | | 3.74% | | 02/01/23 | | 01/19/26 | | | | $ | 1,463 | |
| Swap | | 275,000 | | | one month
Term SOFR | | 4.41% | | 08/08/23 | | 01/19/26 | | | | (2,178) | |

| | $ | 750,000 | | | | | | | | | | | | | $ | (926) | |
As of December 31, 2023, none of our derivative financial instruments were designated as hedges. Derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we recorded a net (loss) gain in the fair value of derivative financial instruments of $(926,000), $500,000 and $8,200,000, respectively, as a (increase)/decrease to total interest expense in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Included in the gain in the fair value of derivative instruments recognized for the year ended December 31, 2021 is $823,000 related to the fair value of an interest rate swap entered into by GAHR IV, which matured on November 19, 2021.
See Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion of the fair value of our derivative financial instruments.
11. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
We are not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, which, if determined unfavorably to us, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
We follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Other
Our other commitments and contingencies include the usual obligations of real estate owners and operators in the normal course of business, which include calls/puts to sell/acquire properties. In our view, these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
12. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, we, through our direct and indirect subsidiaries, owned a 95.0% general partnership interest in our operating partnership, and the remaining 5.0% limited partnership interest in our operating partnership was owned by the NewCo Sellers. Some of the limited partnership units outstanding, which account for approximately 1.0% of our total operating partnership units outstanding, have redemption features outside of our control and are accounted for as redeemable noncontrolling interests presented outside of permanent equity in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we, through Trilogy REIT Holdings, in which we indirectly hold a 76.0% ownership interest, owned approximately 97.5% and 96.2%, respectively, of the outstanding equity interests of Trilogy. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, certain members of Trilogy’s management and certain members of an advisory committee to Trilogy’s board of directors owned approximately 2.5% and 3.8%, respectively, of the outstanding equity interests of Trilogy. We account for such equity interests as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 480-10-S99-3A given certain features associated with such equity interests. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we redeemed a portion of the equity interests owned by a member of Trilogy’s management and a member of Trilogy’s advisory committee for an aggregate of $17,150,000. As of December 31, 2023, we reclassified the balance of the remaining equity interest owned by such member of Trilogy’s advisory committee from redeemable noncontrolling interest to other liabilities in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet, and subsequently redeemed such interest in January 2024 for cash of approximately $25,312,000. In October 2022, we redeemed a portion of the equity interests owned by certain previous or current members of Trilogy’s management and advisory committee for cash of $3,707,000.

The noncontrolling interests held by Meridian have redemption features outside of our control and are accounted for as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. See Note 3, Real Estate Investments, Net — Dispositions of Real Estate Investments, for dispositions within our Central Florida Senior Housing Portfolio in 2023 and 2022.
We previously owned 90.0% of the joint venture with Avalon Health Care, Inc., or Avalon, that owned Catalina West Haven ALF and Catalina Madera ALF. The noncontrolling interests held by Avalon had redemption features outside of our control and were accounted for as redeemable noncontrolling interests until December 1, 2022, when we exercised our right to purchase the remaining 10.0% of the joint venture with Avalon for a contract purchase price of $295,000. As such, 10.0% of the net earnings of such joint venture were allocated to redeemable noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss following the Merger and through November 30, 2022.
We record the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests at the greater of: (i) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interests’ share of net income or loss and distributions or (ii) the redemption value. The changes in the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests consisted of the following for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Common Stock
Pursuant to our charter, as amended, we are authorized to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share, whereby 200,000,000 shares are classified as Class T common stock and 800,000,000 shares were classified as Class I common stock. On January 26, 2024, we further amended our charter to reclassify shares of our Class I common stock such that 200,000,000 shares are classified as Class T common stock, 100,000,000 shares are classified as Class I common stock and 700,000,000 shares are classified as common stock without any designation as to class or series.
On October 4, 2021, our board authorized the reinstatement of our distribution reinvestment plan, as amended, or the AHR DRIP, to offer up to $100,000,000 of shares of our common stock pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act filed by GAHR IV, or the AHR DRIP Offering. On November 14, 2022, our board suspended the AHR DRIP Offering beginning with the distributions declared, if any, for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. As a result of the suspension of the AHR DRIP, unless and until our board reinstates the AHR DRIP Offering, stockholders who are current participants in the AHR DRIP will be paid future distributions in cash. See Note 1, Organization and Description of Business — Public Offerings, and the “Distribution Reinvestment Plan” section below for a further discussion.
We effected a one-for-four reverse split of our common stock on November 15, 2022 and a corresponding reverse split of the partnership units in our operating partnership. As a result of the Reverse Splits, every four shares of our common stock or four partnership units in our operating partnership were automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of our common stock of like class, or one partnership unit of like class, as applicable, rounded to the nearest 1/100th share or unit. The Reverse Splits impacted all classes of common stock and partnership units proportionately and had no impact on any stockholder’s or partner’s ownership percentage. Neither the number of authorized shares nor the par value of the Class T common stock and Class I common stock were ultimately impacted. All numbers of common shares and per share data, as well as partnership units in our operating partnership, in our accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to the Reverse Splits.
On February 9, 2024, we closed the 2024 Offering and issued 64,400,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, for a total of $772,800,000 in gross proceeds, including the exercise in full of the underwriters’ overallotment option to purchase up to an additional 8,400,000 shares of common stock. In conjunction with the 2024 Offering, such shares of common stock were listed on the NYSE and began trading on February 7, 2024.
Our Class T common stock and Class I common stock are identical to our common stock, except that such shares are not currently listed on the NYSE or any other national securities exchange. Upon the six month anniversary of the listing of our common stock for trading on the NYSE, which is August 5, 2024, each share of our Class T common stock and Class I common stock will automatically, and without any stockholder action, convert into one share of our listed common stock.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Our DRIP allowed our stockholders to elect to reinvest an amount equal to the distributions declared on their shares of common stock in additional shares of our common stock in lieu of receiving cash distributions. However, on November 14, 2022, our board suspended the DRIP offering beginning with the distributions declared for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. As a result of the suspension of the DRIP offering, unless and until our board reinstates the DRIP offering, stockholders who are current participants in the DRIP were or will be paid distributions in cash. As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, a total of $91,448,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 2,431,695 shares of common stock being issued pursuant to the AHR DRIP Offering.
Since October 5, 2016, our board had approved and established an estimated per share net asset value, or NAV, annually. Commencing with the distribution payment to stockholders paid in the month following such board approval, shares of our common stock issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan were issued at the current estimated per share NAV until such time as our board determined an updated estimated per share NAV.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no distributions reinvested and no shares of our common stock were issued pursuant to our DRIP offerings. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, $36,812,000 and $7,666,000, respectively, in distributions were reinvested and 992,964 and 207,866 shares of our common stock, respectively, were issued pursuant to our DRIP offerings.

Share Repurchase Plan
Our share repurchase plan allowed for repurchases of shares of our common stock by us when certain criteria are met. Share repurchases were made at the sole discretion of our board. Subject to the availability of the funds for share repurchases and other certain conditions, we generally limited the number of shares of our common stock repurchased during any calendar year to 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year; provided however, that shares subject to a repurchase requested upon the death or “qualifying disability,” as defined in our share repurchase plan, of a stockholder were not subject to this cap. Funds for the repurchase of shares of our common stock came from the cumulative proceeds we received from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP offerings.
Pursuant to our share repurchase plan, the repurchase price is equal to the lesser of (i) the amount per share that a stockholder paid for their shares of our common stock, or (ii) the most recent estimated value of one share of our common stock, as determined by our board, except that the repurchase price with respect to repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders was equal to the most recently published estimated per share NAV. On October 4, 2021, as a result of the Merger, our board authorized the partial reinstatement of our share repurchase plan with respect to requests to repurchase shares resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, effective with respect to qualifying repurchases for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021. All share repurchase requests other than those requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders were rejected. On November 14, 2022, our board suspended our share repurchase plan beginning with share repurchase requests for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. All share repurchase requests, including requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders, commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2022, will not be processed, will be considered canceled in full and will not be considered outstanding repurchase requests.
For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we repurchased 1,681, 559,195 and 10,356 shares of our common stock, respectively, for an aggregate of $62,000, $20,699,000 and $382,000, respectively, at an average repurchase price of $37.16, $37.02 and $36.88 per share, respectively, pursuant to our share repurchase plan. All shares were repurchased using the cumulative proceeds we received from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP offerings.
Noncontrolling Interests in Total Equity
Membership Interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, Trilogy REIT Holdings owned approximately 97.5% and 96.2%, respectively, of Trilogy. Prior to October 1, 2021, we were the indirect owner of a 70.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings pursuant to an amended joint venture agreement with an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of NorthStar Healthcare Income, Inc., or NHI, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of GAHR IV Operating Partnership. We serve as the managing member of Trilogy REIT Holdings. In connection with the Merger, the wholly-owned subsidiary of GAHR IV Operating Partnership sold its 6.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings to GAHR III, thereby increasing our indirect ownership in Trilogy REIT Holdings to 76.0%. Through September 30, 2021, 30.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to noncontrolling interests, and since October 1, 2021, 24.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to a noncontrolling interest.
On November 3, 2023, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, or the MIPA, with subsidiaries of NHI, which provides us with the option to purchase their 24.0% minority membership interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings. If we exercise this purchase option, we will own 100% of Trilogy REIT Holdings, which (assuming that there are no changes in the equity capitalization of Trilogy prior to consummation of the purchase) will in turn cause us to indirectly own approximately 97.5% of Trilogy. Subject to our first satisfying certain closing conditions, the option is exercisable for a closing before September 30, 2025 assuming that we exercise both extension options described below. If we exercise our purchase option, the all-cash purchase price would be $240,500,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, would increase to $247,000,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024 and would further increase to $260,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025.
The MIPA also allows us (at our election), instead of paying all cash, to consummate the purchase transaction by using a combination of cash and the issuance of new Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, or our Convertible Preferred Stock, as purchase price consideration. We must pay at least a minimum amount of the purchase price in cash, in which case we would pay the remaining amount in shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock. The minimum cash amount will be $24,050,000 if we consummate the purchase on or before March 31, 2024, $24,700,000 if we consummate the purchase from April 1, 2024 to and including December 31, 2024, or $26,000,000 if we consummate the purchase on or after January 1, 2025. If issued, our Convertible Preferred Stock will be perpetual, will have a cumulative cash dividend with an

initial annual rate of 4.75% (on the liquidation preference per share of $25.00 of our Convertible Preferred Stock) and will be redeemable by us at any time. The annual dividend rate will increase over time, and the redemption price will vary based on the date of redemption. In addition, holders of shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock will have the right, at any time on or after July 1, 2026 and from time to time, to convert some or all of such shares into shares of our common stock, subject to certain customary exceptions. As of December 31, 2023, we did not exercise the MIPA purchase option.
Other Noncontrolling Interests
In connection with our acquisition and operation of Trilogy, profit interest units in Trilogy, or the Profit Interests, were issued to Trilogy Management Services, LLC and an independent director of Trilogy, both unaffiliated third parties that manage or direct the day-to-day operations of Trilogy. The Profit Interests consisted of time-based or performance-based commitments. The time-based Profit Interests were measured at their grant date fair value and vest in increments of 20.0% on each anniversary of the respective grant date over a five year period. We amortized the time-based Profit Interests on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods, which are recorded to general and administrative in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The performance-based Profit Interests were subject to a performance commitment and would have vested upon liquidity events as defined in the Profit Interests agreements. The performance-based Profit Interests were measured at their fair value on the adoption date of ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, using a modified retrospective approach. The nonvested awards are presented as noncontrolling interests in total equity in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and are re-classified to redeemable noncontrolling interests upon vesting as they had redemption features outside of our control similar to the common stock units held by Trilogy’s management. See Note 12, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, for a further discussion.
In December 2021, we redeemed a part of the time-based Profit Interests and all of the performance-based Profit Interests that were included in noncontrolling interests in total equity. We redeemed such Profit Interests for $16,517,000, which was paid $8,650,000 in cash and $7,867,000 through the issuance of additional equity interests in Trilogy that are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our consolidated balance sheets. There were no canceled, expired or exercised Profit Interests during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we recognized stock compensation expense related to the Profit Interests of $83,000, $83,000 and $8,801,000, respectively.
One of our consolidated subsidiaries issued non-voting preferred shares of beneficial interests to qualified investors for total proceeds of $125,000. These preferred shares of beneficial interests are entitled to receive cumulative preferential cash dividends at the rate of 12.5% per annum. We classify the value of the subsidiary’s preferred shares of beneficial interests as noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the dividends of the preferred shares of beneficial interests in net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, we owned an 86.0% interest in a consolidated limited liability company that owns Lakeview IN Medical Plaza. As such, 14.0% of the net earnings of Lakeview IN Medical Plaza were allocated to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. On February 6, 2024, we purchased the 14.0% membership interest in the consolidated limited liability company that owns Lakeview IN Medical Plaza from an unaffiliated third party for a contract purchase price of $441,000. In connection with such purchase and as of such date, we own a 100% interest in such limited liability company.
As of both December 31, 2023 and 2022, we owned a 90.6% membership interest in a consolidated limited liability company that owns Southlake TX Hospital. As such, 9.4% of the net earnings of Southlake TX Hospital were allocated to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.
Upon consummation of the Merger, through our operating partnership, we acquired an approximate 90.0% interest in a joint venture that owns the Louisiana Senior Housing Portfolio. As such, 10.0% of the net earnings of the joint venture were allocated to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss since October 1, 2021.

Equity Compensation Plans
GAHR III 2013 Incentive Plan
Prior to the REIT Merger, GAHR III adopted the Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. Incentive Plan, or the 2013 Incentive Plan, pursuant to which its board, or a committee of its independent directors, could grant options, shares of our common stock, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to its independent directors, employees and consultants.
Under the 2013 Incentive Plan, GAHR III granted an aggregate of 33,750 shares of its restricted common stock, or I RSAs as defined below, which is equal to 31,273 shares of restricted Class I common stock, using the conversion ratio of 0.9266 shares of GAHR IV Class I common stock for each share of GAHR III restricted common stock, as determined in the Merger. Such restricted shares vest as to 20.0% of the shares on the date of grant and on each anniversary thereafter over four years from the date of grant and are subject to continuous service through the vesting dates. As of the Merger date, 4,170 shares such I RSAs remained unvested with a weighted average grant date fair value of $40.38.
AHR Incentive Plan
Pursuant to the AHR Incentive Plan, our board (with respect to options and restricted shares of common stock granted to independent directors), or our compensation committee (with respect to any other award), may grant options, restricted shares of common stock, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to our independent directors, officers, employees and consultants. The AHR Incentive Plan terminates on June 15, 2033, and the maximum number of shares of our common stock that may be issued pursuant to such plan is 4,000,000 shares.

RSAs were granted to our independent directors in connection with their initial election or re-election to our board or in consideration of their past services rendered. In addition, certain executive officers and key employees received grants of restricted Class T common stock. In February 2024, we also granted an aggregate of 972,222 RSAs to independent directors, executive officers and certain employees upon completion of the 2024 Offering. RSAs generally have a vesting period ranging from one to four years and are subject to continuous service through the vesting dates.
Restricted stock units

14. Related Party Transactions
Fees and Expenses Paid to Affiliates
Through September 30, 2021, we were externally advised by our former advisor pursuant to an advisory agreement, as amended, or the Advisory Agreement, between us and our former advisor. Our former advisor, subject to the oversight and review of our board, provided asset management, property management, acquisition, disposition and other advisory services on our behalf consistent with our investment policies and objectives. Until September 30, 2021, all of our executive officers were officers of our former advisor and officers, limited partners and/or members of one of our former co-sponsors and other affiliates of our former advisor.
Prior to the Merger and the AHI Acquisition, our former advisor was 75.0% owned and managed by wholly-owned subsidiaries of AHI and 25.0% owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital, or collectively, our former cosponsors. Prior to the AHI Acquisition, AHI was 47.1% owned by AHI Group Holdings, 45.1% indirectly owned by DigitalBridge Group, Inc. (NYSE: DBRG), or DigitalBridge, and 7.8% owned by James F. Flaherty III. We were not affiliated with Griffin Capital, DigitalBridge or Mr. Flaherty; however, we were affiliated with our former advisor, AHI and AHI Group Holdings.
On December 20, 2021, the Advisory Agreement was assigned to NewCo, and as a result, any fees that would have otherwise been payable to our former advisor are no longer being paid to a third party. Following the consummation of the Merger in October 2021, we became self-managed and as a result we no longer incur any fees or expense reimbursements to our former advisor and its affiliates arising from the Advisory Agreement.

Registration Rights Agreement
Upon consummation of the AHI Acquisition, GAHR III and the Surviving Partnership entered into a registration rights agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement, with Griffin-American Strategic Holdings, LLC, or HoldCo, pursuant to which, subject to certain limitations therein, as promptly as practicable following the later of the expiration of (i) the period commencing on the closing of the AHI Acquisition and ending upon the earliest to occur of (a) the second anniversary date of the issuance of the Surviving Partnership OP units issued in connection with the AHI Acquisition, (b) a change of control of Merger Sub and (c) the listing of shares of our common stock on a national securities exchange, or the Lock-Up Period; and (ii) the date on which we are eligible to file a registration statement (but in any event no later than 180 days after such date), we, as the indirect parent company of the Surviving Partnership, are required to file a shelf registration statement with the SEC under the Securities Act covering the resale of the shares of our Class I common stock issued or issuable in redemption of the Surviving Partnership OP units that the Surviving Partnership issued as consideration in the AHI Acquisition. The Registration Rights Agreement also grants HoldCo (or any successor holder of such shares) demand rights to request additional registration statement filings as well as “piggyback” registration rights, in each case on or after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period.

We did not have any assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022. There were no transfers into and out of fair value measurement levels during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Warrants
As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any warrants outstanding. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we redeemed all the warrants in common units held by certain members of Trilogy’s management for $678,000 in cash, and as a result, we did not have any warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2022. Such warrants had redemption features similar to the common units held by members of Trilogy’s management. See Note 12, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, for a further discussion.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We entered into interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with variable-rate debt. We also previously used interest rate caps to manage such interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysisSuch valuation reflected the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and used observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, as well as option volatility. The fair values of our interest rate swaps were determined by netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts were based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves.
We incorporated credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.
Although we determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivative financial instruments fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with these instrumentsthis instrument utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparty. However, as of December 31, 2021,2023, we assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety were classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. On January 25, 2022, our prior interest rate swap contracts matured and as of December 31, 2022, we did not have any derivative financial instruments.

Current Income Tax
Federal and state income taxes are generally a function of the level of income recognized by our TRS. Foreign income taxes are generally a function of our income on our real estate located in the UK and Isle of Man.
Deferred Taxes
Deferred income tax is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences (primarily basis differences between tax and financial reporting for real estate assets and equity investments) and generation of tax NOL that may be realized in future periods depending on sufficient taxable income.
We recognize the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position on the financial statements, when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits of the tax position, that such a position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authorities. If the tax benefit meets the “more likely than not” threshold, the measurement of the tax benefit will be based on our estimate of the ultimate tax benefit to be sustained if audited by the taxing authority. As of both December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, we did not have any tax benefits or liabilities for uncertain tax positions that we believe should be recognized in our accompanying consolidated financial statements.
We assess the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established if we believe it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets are not realizable. As of both December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, our valuation allowance fully reserves the net deferred tax assets due to historical losses and inherent uncertainty of future income. We will continue to monitor industry and economic conditions, and our ability to generate taxable income based on our business plan and available tax planning strategies, which would allow us to utilize the tax benefits of the net deferred tax assets and thereby allow us to reverse all, or a portion of, our valuation allowance in the future.

Lessee
We lease certain land, buildings, furniture, fixtures, campus equipment,and office equipment and automobiles. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that generally can extend at various dates through 2107, excluding extension options. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. As of December 31, 2022, we had future lease payments of $144,000 for an operating lease that had not yet commenced. Such operating lease will commence in fiscal year 2023 with a lease term of 8 years.
The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments that are adjusted periodically based on the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index and may also include other variable lease costs (i.e., common area maintenance, property taxes and insurance). Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

18. Segment Reporting
As of December 31, 2022, we evaluatedWe evaluate our business and mademake resource allocations based on sixfour reportable business segments: integrated senior health campuses, MOBs, SNFs, SHOP, senior housing —or ISHC, OM, triple-net leased properties and hospitals.SHOP. Our MOBsOM buildings are typically leased to multiple tenants under separate leases, thus requiring active management and responsibility for many of the associated operating expenses (much of which are, or can effectively be, passed through to the tenants). Our integrated senior health campuses includeeach provide a range of independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing services and certain ancillary businesses that are owned and operated utilizing a RIDEA structure. Our triple-net leased properties segment includes senior housing, skilled nursing facilities and senior housing facilitieshospital investments, which are single-tenant properties for which we lease the facilities to unaffiliated tenants under triple-net and generally master leases that transfer the obligation for all facility operating costs (including maintenance, repairs, taxes, insurance and capital expenditures) to the tenant. In addition, our senior housing —triple-net leased properties segment includes our debt security investment. Our hospital investments are similarly structured to our leased skilled nursing and senior housing facilities. Our SHOP segment includes senior housing, facilitieswhich may provide assisted living care, independent living, memory care or skilled nursing services that are owned and operated utilizing a RIDEA structure.
While we believe that net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measurement, we evaluate our segments’ performance based upon segment net operating income, or NOI. We define segment NOI as total revenues and grant income, less property operating expenses and rental expenses, which excludes depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, business acquisition expenses, interest expense, gain or loss on dispositions of real estate investments, impairment of real estate investments, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, income or loss from unconsolidated entities, gain on re-measurement of previously held equity interest, foreign currency gain or loss, other income and income tax benefit or expense for each segment. We believe that segment NOI serves as an appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income (loss) because it allows investors and our management to measure unlevered property-level operating results and to compare our operating results to the operating results of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis.
Interest expense, depreciation and amortization and other expenses not attributable to individual properties are not allocated to individual segments for purposes of assessing segment performance. Non-segment assets primarily consist of corporate assets, including cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, deferred financing costs and other assets not attributable to individual properties.
Effective upon the Merger, we acquired 92 buildings, or approximately 4,799,000 square feet of GLA, which expanded our portfolio of real estate properties and SHOP within the segments as outlined above.

20.19. Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk are primarily our debt security investment, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts and other receivables. We are exposed to credit risk with respect to our debt security investment, but we believe collection of the outstanding amount is probable. Cash and cash equivalents are generally invested in investment-grade, short-term instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. We have cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. As of December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, we had cash and cash equivalents in excess of FDIC insured limits. We believe this risk is not significant. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable from tenants and residents is limited. We perform credit evaluations of prospective tenants and security deposits are obtained at the time of property acquisition and upon lease execution.

Net income (loss) applicable to common stock is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to controlling interest less distributions allocated to participating securities of $3,803,000, $5,967,000 $1,440,000 and $9,000,$1,440,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 2021 and 2020.2021. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of our common stock and all potentially dilutive securities, if any. TBUs, nonvested shares of our RSAs and limited partnership units of our operating partnership are participating securities and give rise to potentially dilutive shares of our common stock.
As of December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, there were 183,240147,044 and 891,543183,240 nonvested shares, respectively, of our RSAs outstanding, but such shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because such shares were anti-dilutive during these periods. As of both December 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, there were 3,501,976 limited partnership units of our operating partnership outstanding, but such units were also excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because such units were anti-dilutive during these periods. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were 157,329 and 19,200 nonvested TBUs outstanding, which were granted on April 1, 2022,respectively, but such units were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because such restricted stock units were anti-dilutive during the period.
