This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2020. In this Quarterly Report, “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Trust” refer to Universal Health Realty Income Trust and its subsidiaries.

As disclosed in this Quarterly Report, including in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statementscondensed consolidated financial statements—Relationship with Universal Health Services, Inc. (“UHS”) and Related Party Transactions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of UHS (UHS of Delaware, Inc.) serves as our Advisor pursuant to the terms of an annually renewable Advisory Agreement dated December 24, 1986.1986, and as amended and restated as of January 1, 2019. Our officers are all employees of UHS through its wholly-owned subsidiary, UHS of Delaware, Inc. In addition, three of our hospital facilities are leased to subsidiaries of UHS, and subsidiaries of UHS are tenants of seventeenmedical office buildings or free-standing emergency departments, that are either wholly or jointly-owned by us include tenants which are subsidiaries of UHS.(excluding new construction). Any reference to “UHS” or “UHS facilities” in this report is referring to Universal Health Services, Inc.’s subsidiaries, including UHS of Delaware, Inc.

In this Quarterly Report, the term “revenues” does not include the revenues of the unconsolidated limited liability companies (“LLCs”) in which we have four various non-controlling equity interests ranging from 33% to 95%.  As of June 30, 2020, we had investments in five jointly-owned LLCs/LPs (including one currently under construction which is scheduled to be completed in late 2020). We currently account for our share of the income/loss from these investments by the equity method (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statementscondensed consolidated financial statements included herein).

UNIVERSAL HEALTH REALTY INCOME TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SeptemberJune 30, 20172020

(unaudited)

 

(1) General

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2020. In this Quarterly Report, “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Trust” refer to Universal Health Realty Income Trust and its subsidiaries.

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the term “revenues” does not include the revenues of the unconsolidated LLCs in which we have various non-controlling equity interests ranging from 33% to 95%.  As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2020, we had investments in four5 jointly-owned LLCs/LPs (including one under construction which own medical office buildings, allis scheduled to be completed in late 2020). We currently account for our share of which are accounted forthe income/loss from these investments by the equity method (see Note 5). These LLCs are included in our consolidated financial statements for all periods presented on an unconsolidated basis since they are not variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary, nor do we hold a controlling voting interest.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in our opinion, are necessary to fairly present results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and accounting policies included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2019.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic and the federal government declared COVID-19 a national emergency. As a result of various policies implemented by the federal and state governments, and varying by individual state, many non-essential businesses in the nation were closed for varying periods of time.  With the exception of the operators of our 4 preschool and childcare centers, which were closed from mid-March until mid-June, we believe that most of the tenants occupying our hospitals, medical office buildings (“MOBs”) and ambulatory care centers were permitted to continue operating if they elected to do so.  

Although COVID-19 has not had a material adverse impact on our results of operations through June 30, 2020, we believe that the potentially adverse impact that the pandemic may have on the future operations and financial results of our tenants, and in turn ours, will depend upon many factors, most of which are beyond our, or our tenants’, ability to control or predict. Many of our properties are located in states that have experienced significant increases in COVID-19 infections in June, July and early August. Such states include Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Nevada and Texas. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the length of time and severity of the spread of the pandemic; the volume of cancelled or rescheduled elective procedures and the volume of COVID-19 patients treated by the operators of our hospitals and other healthcare facilities; measures our tenants are taking to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic; the impact of government and administrative regulation, including travel bans and restrictions, shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders, quarantines, the promotion of social distancing, business shutdowns and limitations on business activity; changes in patient volumes at our tenants’ hospitals and other healthcare facilities due to patients’ general concerns related to the risk of contracting COVID-19 from interacting with the healthcare system; the impact of stimulus on the health care industry and our tenants; changes in patient volumes and payer mix caused by deteriorating macroeconomic conditions (including increases in uninsured and underinsured patients as the result of business closings and layoffs); potential disruptions to clinical staffing and shortages and disruptions related to supplies required for our tenants’ employees and patients, including equipment, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies, particularly personal protective equipment, or PPE; potential increases to expenses incurred by our tenants related to staffing, supply chain or other expenditures; the impact of our indebtedness and the ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms; disruptions in the financial markets and the business of financial institutions as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic which could impact our ability to access capital or increase associated borrowing costs; and changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in the markets our properties are located resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, including increased unemployment and underemployment levels and reduced consumer spending and confidence.  Since the underlying businesses in each of our properties are operated by the tenants, we can provide no assurance that the businesses will continue to operate in the future, or stay current with their lease obligations.  

Bonus rents earned by us on the 3 acute care hospitals leased to wholly-owned subsidiaries of Universal Health Services, Inc., are computed based upon a computation that compares each hospital’s current quarter revenue to the corresponding quarter in the base year, we could therefore experience significant declines in future bonus rental revenue earned on these properties should those


hospitals experience significant declines in patient volumes and revenues. These hospitals believe that, to the extent that they experience revenue declines and increased expenses resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, as ultimately measured over the life of the pandemic, they are eligible for emergency fund grants as provided for by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).

Certain factors may result in the inability or unwillingness on the part of some of our tenants to make timely payment of their rent to us at current levels or to seek to amend or terminate their leases which, in turn, would have an adverse effect on our occupancy levels and our revenue and cash flow and the value of our properties, and potentially, our ability to maintain our dividend at current levels. Due to COVID-19 restrictions and its impact on the economy, we may experience a decrease in prospective tenants which could unfavorably impact the volume of new leases, as well as the renewal rate of existing leases. The COVID-19 pandemic could also impact our indebtedness and the ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms, as well as risks associated with disruptions in the financial markets and the business of financial institutions as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic which could impact us from a financing perspective; and changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in the markets our properties are located resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Decreases in cash flows and results of operations may have an impact on the inputs and assumptions used in significant accounting estimates, including potential impairments of intangible and long-lived assets.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

 

 

(2) Relationship with Universal Health Services, Inc. (“UHS”) and Related Party Transactions

Leases: We commenced operations in 1986 by purchasing properties offrom certain subsidiaries fromof UHS and immediately leasing the properties back to the respective subsidiaries. Most of the leases were entered into at the time we commenced operations and provided for initial terms of 13 to 15 years with up to six6 additional 5-year renewal terms. The current base rentals and lease and rentalrenewal terms for each of the three3 hospital facilities leased to subsidiaries of UHS are provided below. The base rents are paid monthly and each lease also provides for additional or bonus rents which are computed and paid on a quarterly basis based upon a computation that compares current quarter revenue to a corresponding quarter in the base year. The three hospital leases with subsidiaries of UHS are unconditionally guaranteed by UHS and are cross-defaulted with one another.

The combined revenues generated from the leases on the UHS hospital facilities accounted for approximately 22% and 23%21% of our consolidated revenues for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively, and approximately 22% and 24% of our consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  Including 100% of the revenues generated at the unconsolidated LLCs in which we have various non-controlling equity interests ranging from 33% to 95%, the leases on the UHS hospital facilities accounted for approximately 19% of the combined consolidated and unconsolidated revenue for each of the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016, and approximately 19% and 20% of the combined consolidated and unconsolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.2019. In addition, we have seventeen17 medical office buildings (“MOBs”), or free-standing emergency departments (“FEDs”), that are either wholly or jointly-owned by us (excluding new construction), that include tenants which are subsidiaries of UHS.  The aggregate revenues generated from UHS-related tenants comprised approximately 32% and 30% of our consolidated revenues during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and approximately 32% and 31% of our consolidated revenues during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Pursuant to the Master Lease Document by and among us and certain subsidiaries of UHS, dated December 24, 1986 (the “Master Lease”), which governs the leases of all hospital properties with subsidiaries of UHS, UHS has the option to renew the leases at the lease terms described below by providing notice to us at least 90 days prior to the termination of the then current term. UHS also has the right to purchase the respective leased facilities at the end of the lease terms or any renewal terms at the appraised fair market value. In addition, the Master Lease, as amended duringin 2006, includes a change of control provision whereby UHS has the right, upon one month’s notice should a change of control of the Trust occur, to purchase any or all of the three leased hospital properties listed below at their appraised fair market value. Additionally, UHS has rights of first refusal to: (i) purchase the respective leased facilities during and for 180 days after the lease terms at the same price, terms and conditions of any third-party offer, or; (ii) renew the lease on the respective leased facility at the end of, and for 180 days after, the lease term at the same terms and conditions pursuant to any third-party offer.

UHS has twoone 5-year renewal optionsoption at the existing lease ratesrate (through 2031).

(b)(b.)

UHS has two 5-year renewal options at fair market value lease rates (2022 through 2031).

Management cannot predict whether the leases with subsidiaries of UHS, which have renewal options at existing lease rates or fair market value lease rates, or any of our other leases, will be renewed at the end of their lease term. If the leases are not renewed at their current rates or the fair market value lease rates, we would be required to find other operators for those facilities and/or enter into leases on terms potentially less favorable to us than the current leases. In addition, if subsidiaries of UHS exercise their options to purchase the respective leased hospital or FED facilities upon expiration of the lease terms, our future revenues could decrease if we were unable to earn a favorable rate of return on the sale proceeds received, as compared to the rentallease revenue currently earned pursuant to the these leases.

(4) Acquisitions, Dispositions and New Construction, Acquisitions and Dispositions

NineSix Months Ended June 30, 2020:    

New Construction:

In September, 30, 2017:

Acquisitions:

During September, 2017,2019, we acquired the Las Palmas Del Sol Emergency Center located in El Paso, Texas forentered into an agreement whereby we will own a purchase price of approximately $4.2 million.  This FED is 100% leased under the terms of a ten year triple net lease that has a remaining lease term of approximately 9 years at the time of purchase, with two, five year renewal options.  

During July, 2017, we acquired The Health Center at Hamburg located in Hamburg, Pennsylvania for a purchase price of approximately $4.7 million. This medical office building is 100% leased under the terms of a fifteen year triple net lease and has a remaining lease term of approximately 8.5 years at the time of purchase, with two, five year renewal options.

These acquisitions were planned and executed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and therefore we believe they both qualify as tax deferred like-kind exchange transactions, as discussed below, in connection with the below-mentioned divestiture of St. Mary’s Professional Office Building in March, 2017.  

The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed consisting of tangible property and intangible assets and liabilities, based on the fair values estimated at the acquisition dates. The intangible assets consist of the value of the in-place leases at the properties at the time of acquisition, and the intangible liabilities consist of the value of a below-market lease at the time of acquisition. The value of the in-place leases and below-market lease will be amortized over the average remaining lease term of each property at the time of acquisition.

Disposition:

During March, 2017, Arlington Medical Properties, LLC, a formerly jointly-owned limited liability company in which we held an 85% noncontrolling ownership interest, sold the real estate assets of St. Mary’s Professional Office Building (“St. Mary’s”) as part of a series of planned tax deferred like-kind exchange transactions pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.  St. Mary’s is a multi-tenant medical office building located in Reno, Nevada.  A third party member owned the remaining 15% of Arlington Medical Properties LLC, which we acquired prior to the divestiture of St. Mary’s for a purchase price of $7.9 million.

The divestiture of St. Mary’s generated an aggregate of approximately $57.3 million of net cash proceeds to us.  These proceeds, which were net of closing costs and the purchase price paid for the minority member’s95% non-controlling ownership interest in Grayson Properties II L.P., which will develop, construct, own and operate the LLC, include repayment to us of a $21.4 million member loan. Our results of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 include a net gain of $27.2 million (net of related transaction costs) recorded in connection with this transaction.  

New Construction:

During the first quarter of 2016, we began the development and construction of the HendersonTexoma Medical Plaza II, an MOB located in Denison, Texas.  This MOB, which is scheduled to be completed in late 2020, will be located on the campus of the Henderson HospitalTexoma Medical Center, a hospital that is owned and operated by a wholly-owned subsidiary of UHS.  A 10-year master flex lease was executed with the wholly-owned subsidiary of UHS for 40,000 rentable square feet, representing over 50% of the rentable square feet of the MOB.  The master flex lease commitment is subject to reduction upon the execution of third-party leases on up to 20,000 rentable square feet of the first and second floors of the three-story MOB, and 20,000 rentable square feet on the third floor.  In April, 2020, a new, 122-month lease was fully executed with a third-party tenant for approximately 26,000 rentable square feet on the first floor of the MOB.  As a result, the master flex lease commitment was reduced to 20,000 of rentable square feet on the third floor of the MOB.  After giving effect to this new lease, 61% of the rentable square feet of the MOB is under lease agreements (including the remaining master lease space).    Effective June 1, 2020, a $13.1 million third-party construction loan (non-recourse to us) was obtained by the LP, which is owned by a UHS subsidiaryscheduled to mature on June 1, 2025 and openedhas an outstanding loan balance of $7.1 million as of June 30, 2020.  Additionally, we have committed to invest up to $4.8 million in late October, 2016. The MOB was completed and opened during April, 2017. We have invested $14.3 million onequity or member loans in the development and construction of this MOB, NaN of which has been invested as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016:

Acquisition:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we spent $52.2 million to:

 purchase the Frederick Memorial Hospital Crestwood,2020.We account for this LP on an MOB located in Frederick, Maryland, during the third quarter of 2016 for approximately $24.3 million.  The property was fully occupiedunconsolidated basis pursuant to the termsequity method since it is not a variable interest entity and we do not have a controlling voting interest.  

In July, 2019, Des Moines Medical Properties, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of triple-net leases withours, entered into an average remainingagreement to build and lease a newly constructed behavioral health care hospital located in Clive, Iowa.  The lease on this facility, which is triple net and has an initial term of 20-years with 5 10-year renewal options, was executed with Clive Behavioral Health, LLC, a joint venture between UHS and Catholic Health Initiatives - Iowa, Corp. (d/b/a Mercy One Des Moines Medical Center). Construction of this hospital, for which we have engaged a wholly-owned subsidiary of UHS to act as project manager for an aggregate fee of approximately 12 years at the time of acquisition.  This acquisition was planned and executed$750,000, is expected to be completed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1031late 2020 or early 2021. The hospital lease will commence upon issuance of the Internal Revenue Codecertificate of occupancy. The approximate cost of the project is estimated to be $37.5 million and therefore we believe that it qualifiesthe initial annual rent is estimated to be approximately $2.7 million.  We have invested approximately $17.4 million for land and the development and construction costs of this hospital as a tax-deferred like-kind exchange transaction in connection with the divestiture of St. Mary’s Professional Office Building in March, 2017.

purchase the Chandler Corporate Center III located in Chandler, Arizona, during the second quarter of 2016 for approximately $18.0 million.  The property was 92% occupied by one tenant pursuant to the terms of a twelve year escalating triple-net lease, with a ten year fair-market value renewal optionJune 30, 2020 (including accrued costs at the time of acquisition. The lease had a remaining lease term of approximately 11.3 years at the time of acquisition.June 30, 2020).


purchase the Madison Professional Office Building located in Madison, Alabama,Acquisitions:

There were 0 acquisitions during the first quartersix months of 2016 for approximately $10.1 million (including $150,000 deposit made in 2015). This multi-tenant property was fully occupied with an average remaining lease term of approximately 6.2 years at the time of acquisition.


The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed consisting of tangible property and intangible assets and liabilities, based on the fair value at acquisition as detailed in the table below. Previous reported estimated purchase price allocations that have been finalized did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.  The intangible assets include the value of in-place leases at the properties at the time of acquisition as well as the above market lease values, if applicable. The value of the in-place leases will be amortized over the average remaining lease terms of approximately 6 to 12 years at the time of acquisition.  The above/below market leases, which are reflected below as intangible assets/below-market intangibles will be amortized over the remaining term of the respective leases. The estimated aggregate allocation is as follows:

(5) Summarized Financial Information of Equity Affiliates

In accordance with professional standardsU.S. GAAP and guidance relating to accounting for investments and real estate ventures, we account for our unconsolidated investments in LLCs/LPs which we do not control using the equity method of accounting.  The third-party members in these investments have equal voting rights with regards to issues such as, but not limited to: (i) divestiture of property; (ii) annual budget approval, and; (iii) financing commitments. These investments, which represent 33% to 95% non-controlling ownership interests, are recorded initially at our cost and subsequently adjusted for our net equity in the net income, cash contributions to, and distributions from, the investments. Pursuant to certain agreements, allocations of sales proceeds and profits and losses of some of the LLC investments may be allocated disproportionately as compared to ownership interests after specified preferred return rate thresholds have been satisfied.

InDistributions received from equity method investees in the Condensed Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Cash Flows, distributions andcash flows are classified based upon the nature of the distribution. Returns on investments are presented net of equity in net income are presented netfrom unconsolidated investments as cash flows from operating activities.  Cumulative distributions received exceeding cumulative equity in earnings represent returnsReturns of investments and are classified as cash flows from investing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.activities.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2020, we have non-controlling equity investments or commitments in four5 jointly-owned LLCs/LPs which own MOBs.MOBs (including 1 currently under construction which is scheduled to be completed in late 2020). As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2020, we accounted for these LLCs/LPs on an unconsolidated basis pursuant to the equity method since they are not variable interest entities andwhich we are the primary beneficiary nor do notwe have a controlling voting interest. The majority of these entities are joint-ventures between us and non-related parties that hold minority ownership interests in the entities. Each entity is generally self-sustained from a cash flow perspective and generates sufficient cash flow to meet its operating cash flow requirements and service the third-party debt (if applicable) that is non-recourse to us. Although there is typically no ongoing financial support required from us to these entities since they are cash-flow sufficient, we may, from time to time, provide funding for certain purposes such as, but not limited to, significant capital expenditures, leasehold improvements and debt financing. Although we are not obligated to do so, if approved by us at our sole discretion, additional cash fundings arefunding is typically advanced as equity or member loans. These entities maintain property insurance on the properties.


During March, 2017, Arlington Medical Properties, LLC, a formerly jointly-owned limited liability company in which we held an 85% noncontrolling ownership interest, sold the real estate assets of St. Mary’s Professional Office Building (“St. Mary’s”) as part of a series of planned tax deferred like-kind exchange transactions pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.  A third party member owned the remaining 15% of Arlington Medical Properties LLC, which we acquired prior to the divestiture of St. Mary’s.

(6) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August, 2016,Accounting for Lease Concessions Granted in Connection with the COVID-19 Outbreak

On April 8, 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”("FASB") held a public meeting and shortly afterwards issued a question-and-answer ("Q&A") document which was intended to provide accounting relief for lease concessions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The accounting relief permits an entity to choose to forgo the evaluation of the enforceable rights and obligations of a lease contract, which is a requirement of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases, as long as the total rent payments after the lease concessions are substantially the same, or less than, the total payments previously required by the lease. An entity may account for COVID-19 related lease concessions either (i) as if they were part of the enforceable rights and obligations of the parties under the existing lease contract; or (ii) as a lease modification. To the extent that a rent concession is granted as a deferral of payments, but the total lease payments are substantially the same, lessors are allowed to account for the concession as if no change had been made to the original lease contract.

Based on the Q&A, an entity is not required to account for all lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic under one elected option, however, the entity is required to apply the elected option consistently to leases with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances. The COVID-19 pandemic did not start to adversely impact the economic conditions in the United States until late March 2020 and did not have a material effect on our operations or financial results during the three or six months ended June 30, 2020.

We have received short-term rent deferral requests from a portion of tenants under lease at our MOBs. These requests are under review on a request-by-request basis based upon each tenant’s specific circumstances as well as consideration of potential economic benefit available and received by tenants through governmental assistance programs.  At this time, we cannot estimate the magnitude of short-term rent deferral requests that we may ultimately agree to provide, or the magnitude of additional short-term rent deferral requests that we may receive in the future.  

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued an accounting standard classified under FASB ASC Topic 848, “Reference Rate Reform.” The amendments in this update contain practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASC 848 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. We will evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.


Financial Instruments – Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses," which introduced new guidance for an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of Certain Cash Receiptsfinancial instruments. Instruments in scope include loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, and Cash Payments,net investments in leases as well as reinsurance and trade receivables. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, which adds or clarifies guidancethat operating lease receivables are outside the scope of the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows with the intent to alleviate diversity in practice for classifying various types of cash flows.  This ASU isnew standard. The standard was effective for annual and interim reporting periodsus in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early2019. The adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASUguidance did not have a material impact on our statement of cash flows.consolidated financial statements.

 


In February 2016,(7) Lease Accounting

As Lessor:

We lease our operating properties to customers under agreements that are classified as operating leases. We recognize the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which sets outtotal minimum lease payments provided for under the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Generally, under the terms of our leases, the majority of our rental expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, are recovered from our customers. We record amounts reimbursed by customers in the period that the applicable expenses are incurred, which is generally ratably throughout the term of the lease. AWe have elected the package of practical expedients that allows lessors to not separate lease and non-lease components by class of underlying asset. This practical expedient allowed us to not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“tenant reimbursements”) from the associated rental revenue if certain criteria were met.  We assessed these criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental revenue and the associated tenant reimbursements are the same, and as our leases qualify as operating leases, we accounted for and presented rental revenue and tenant reimbursements as a single component under Lease revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

The components of the “Lease revenue – UHS facilities” and “Lease revenue – Non-related parties” captions for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are disaggregated below (in thousands). Base rents are primarily stated rent amounts provided for under the leases that are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Bonus rents and tenant reimbursements represent amounts where tenants are contractually obligated to pay an amount that is variable in nature.

As Lessee:

We are the lessee is also requiredwith various third parties, including subsidiaries of UHS, in connection with ground leases for land at 14 of our consolidated properties. Our right-of-use land assets represent our right to record ause the land for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the leases. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recognized upon adoption of Topic 842 based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We utilized our estimated incremental borrowing rate, which was derived from information available as of January 1, 2019, in determining the present value of lease payments.A right-of-use asset and a lease liability are not recognized for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with aan initial term of 12 months or less, will beas these short-term leases are accounted for similar to existingprevious guidance for operating leases.  We do not currently have any ground leases today. The new standard requires lessors to accountwith an initial term of 12 months or less. As of June 30, 2020, our condensed consolidated balance sheet includes right-of-use land assets of approximately $8.9 million and ground lease liabilities of approximately $8.9 million. There were no newly leased assets for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the previous leases standard, Leases (Topic 840). The standard is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial position or results of operations.

In 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 states that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitledright-of-use asset was recorded in exchange for those goods or services.” While ASU 2014-09 specifically references contracts with customers, it may apply to certain other transactions such asa new lease liability during the sale of real estate or equipment. In 2015, the FASB provided for a one-year deferral of the effective date for ASU 2014-09, which is now effective for us beginning January 1, 2018.  We expect to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective approach, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the date of adoption. We do not expect this adoption to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, as a substantial portion of our revenue consists of rental income from leasing arrangements, which is specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09.six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

In January, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business” to clarify the definition of a business in order to allow for the evaluation of whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  We expect that future property acquisitions will generally qualify as asset acquisitions under the standard, which permits the capitalization of acquisition costs to the underlying assets. We adopted this new guidance effective January 1, 2017. This new guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.


 

(7)(8) Debt and Financial Instruments

Debt:

Management routinely monitors and analyzes the Trust’s capital structure in an effort to maintain the targeted balance among capital resources including the level of borrowings pursuant to our $250$350 million revolving credit agreement,facility, the level of borrowings pursuant to non-recourse mortgage debt secured by the real property of our properties and our level of equity including consideration of additional equity issuances pursuant to our ATM equity issuance program.  This ongoing analysis considers factors such as the current debt market and interest rate environment, the current/projected occupancy and financial performance of our properties, the current loan-to-value ratio of our properties, the Trust’s current stock price, the capital resources required for anticipated acquisitions and the expected capital to be generated by anticipated divestitures. This analysis, together with consideration of the Trust’s current balance of revolving credit agreement borrowings, non-recourse mortgage borrowings and equity, assists management in deciding which capital resource to utilize when events such as refinancing of specific debt components occur or additional funds are required to finance the Trust’s growth.

On May 24, 2016,In June 2020, we amended ourentered into the first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the revolving credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, increasean additional tranche of revolving credit commitments in the borrowing capacityamount of $50 million, designated as the “Revolving B Facility”, was established thereby increasing the aggregate revolving credit commitment to $250$350 million from $185 million previously.$300 million. The amended Credit Agreement, as amended, which is scheduled to mature in March 2019, includes2022, provides for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $350 million, including a $40 million sub limitsublimit for letters of credit and a $20$30 million sub limitsublimit for swingline/short-term loans.  The Credit Agreement also provides a one-time optionfor options to extend the maturity date for an2 additional one year period, and an option to increase the total facility borrowing capacity up to an additional $50 million, subject to lender agreement.six month periods. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Trust. In addition, borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by first priority security interests in and liens on all equity interests in certain of the Trust’s wholly-owned subsidiaries.  The remainder of the revolving credit commitments provided under the Credit Agreement that were in effect prior to giving effect to the First Amendment, has been designated as the “Revolving A Facility”.

At June 30, 2020, we had $176.7$221.3 million of outstanding borrowings and $1.5$5.6 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement.  We had $71.8$123.1 million of available borrowing capacity, net of the outstanding borrowings and letters of credit outstanding as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2020. There are no0 compensating balance requirements. At December 31, 2019, we had $213.0 million of outstanding borrowings outstanding against our revolving credit agreement and $87.0 million of available borrowing capacity.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on certain indebtedness, liens, acquisitions and other investments, fundamental changes, asset dispositions and dividends and other distributions. The Credit Agreement also contains restrictive covenants regarding the Trust’s ratio of total debt to total assets, the fixed charge coverage ratio, the ratio of total secured debt to total asset value, the ratio of total unsecured debt to total unencumbered asset value, and minimum tangible net worth, as well as customary events of default, the occurrence of which may trigger an acceleration of amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. We are in compliance with all of the covenants at SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2020 and December 31, 2019. We also believe that we would remain in compliance if, based on the assumption that the majority of the potential new borrowings will be used to fund investments, the full amount of our commitment was borrowed.

The mortgages are secured by the real property of the buildings as well as property leases and rents. The mortgages haveoutstanding as of June 30, 2020 had a combined fair value of approximately $85.0$62.4 million.  At December 31, 2019, we had various mortgages, all of which were non-recourse to us, included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The combined outstanding balance of these various mortgages was $61.1 million and had a combined fair value of approximately $63.1 million. The fair value of our debt was computed based upon quotes received from financial institutions.  We consider these to be “level 2” in the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2017.outlined in the authoritative guidance for disclosure in connection with debt instruments.  Changes in market rates on our fixed rate debt impacts the fair value of debt, but it has no impact on interest incurred or cash flow.

At December 31, 2016,Financial Instruments:

In March 2020, we had fifteen mortgages, allentered into an interest rate swap agreement on a total notional amount of which were non-recourse$55 million with a fixed interest rate of a 0.565% that we designated as a cash flow hedge.  The interest rate swap became effective on March 25, 2020 and is scheduled to mature on March 25, 2027. If the one-month LIBOR is above 0.565%, the counterparty pays us, included in our consolidated balance sheet.and if the one-month LIBOR is less than 0.565%, we pay the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of 0.565% and one-month LIBOR.

In January 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on a total notional amount of $35 million with a fixed interest rate of a 1.4975% that we designated as a cash flow hedge.  The combined outstanding balanceinterest rate swap became effective on January 15, 2020 and is scheduled to mature on September 16, 2024. If the one-month LIBOR is above 1.4975%, the counterparty pays us, and if the one-month LIBOR is less than 1.4975%, we pay the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of these fifteen mortgages was $114.2 million (excluding net debt premium of $436,0001.4975% and net financing fees of $381,000), and had a combined fair value of approximately $115.7 million.

Financial Instruments:one-month LIBOR.  

During the third quarter of 2013,2019, we entered into an interest rate capswap agreement on a total notional amount of $10$50 million with a fixed interest rate of a 1.144% that we designated as a cash flow hedge. The interest rate swap became effective on September 16, 2019 and is scheduled to mature on September 16, 2024. If the one-month LIBOR is above 1.144%, the counterparty pays us, and if


the one-month LIBOR is less than 1.144%, we pay the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of 1.144% and one-month LIBOR.

We measure our interest rate swaps at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of our interest rate swaps is based on quotes from third parties.  We consider those inputs to be “level 2” in the fair value hierarchy as outlined in the authoritative guidance for disclosures in connection with derivative instruments and hedging activities. At June 30, 2020, the fair value of our interest rate swaps was a net liability of $4.9 million which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the second quarter of 2020, we paid or accrued approximately $182,000 in net payments made to the counterparty by us, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, pursuant to the terms of the swaps (consisting of approximately $201,000 in payments, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, or accruals made to the counterparty by us, offset by approximately $19,000 paid to us by the counterparty). During the first six months of 2020, we paid or accrued approximately $131,000 in net payments made to the counterparty by us, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, pursuant to the terms of the swaps (consisting of approximately $222,000 in payments, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, or accruals made to the counterparty by us, offset by approximately $91,000 of payments paid to us by the counterparty).   From inception of the swap agreements through June 30, 2020 we paid or accrued approximately $23,000 in net payments made to the counterparty by us pursuant to the terms of the swap (consisting of approximately $199,000 in payments or accruals made to us by the counterparty, offset by approximately $222,000 of payments due to the counterparty from us).  Cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the fair value of the derivative instrument on the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability, with a corresponding amount recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) within shareholders’ equity.  Amounts are classified from AOCI to the income statement in the period or periods the hedged transaction affects earnings.

During the third quarter of 2016, we entered into an additional interest rate cap agreement on a total notional amount of $30 million whereby we paid a premium of $136,000.

(8)(9) Segment Reporting

Our primary business is investing in and leasing healthcare and human service facilities through direct ownership or through joint ventures, which aggregate into a single reportable segment. We actively manage our portfolio of healthcare and human service facilities and may from time to time make decisions to sell lower performing properties not meeting our long-term investment objectives. The proceeds of sales are typically reinvested in new developments or acquisitions, which we believe will meet our planned rate of return. It is our intent that all healthcare and human service facilities will be owned or developed for investment purposes. Our revenue and net income are generated from the operation of our investment portfolio.

Our portfolio is located throughout the United States, however, we do not distinguish or group our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or measuring performance. We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, we define an operating segment as our individual properties. Individual properties have been aggregated


into one1 reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to both the nature and economics of the facilities, tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term average financial performance.

(9) Impact of Hurricane Harvey  

In late August, 2017, five of our medical office buildings listed below located in  No individual property meets the Houston, Texas area incurred extensive water damage as a result of Hurricane Harvey. Since the hurricane, each of these properties remain temporarily closed and non-operational as we continuerequirements necessary to assess the damage before restoring the properties to an operational condition. Although we can provide no assurance on the estimated re-opening dates, it is expected that the buildings will be closed through the remainder of 2017 and into the first half of 2018.  In the aggregate, these properties comprised approximately 2% of our consolidated revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2017.  

As discussed below, we believe we are entitled to insurance recovery proceeds for substantially all of the costs incurred related to the remediation, repair and reconstruction of each of these properties, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations. In addition, during the period that these properties are non-operational, we believe we are entitled to business interruption insurance recoveries for the lost income related to each of these properties, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations.

Properties damaged and closed from Hurricane Harvey:

Cypresswood Professional Center – located in Spring, Texas and consisting of two MOBs.

Professional Buildings at King’s Crossing – located in Kingwood, Texas and consisting of two MOBs.

Kelsey-Seybold Clinic at King’s Crossing – located in Kingwood, Texas and consisting of one MOB.

Hurricane related expenses and recoveries:

At the time of the hurricane, we maintained insurance policies with a commercial insurance carrier providing for property damage coverage, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations, of up to $20 million in the aggregate applicable to the impacted properties and up to $50 million in the aggregate for business interruption coverage pursuant to a shared limit policy. Additionally, we have insurance coverage under the National Flood Insurance Program providing for property damage coverage of up to $500,000 per each of the 5 buildings, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations. When all property insurance coverage and deductibles applicable to the above-mentioned hurricane damaged buildings are considered we believe we are entitled to recovery of substantially all hurricane related expenses and reconstruction costs, less an aggregate net deductible of $25,000.  In addition, pursuant to the business interruption policy, we believe we are entitled to substantially all lost income at these properties resulting from the hurricane, less an aggregate deductible of $100,000. However, we can provide no assurance that we will ultimately collect, after satisfaction of the applicable deductibles, substantially all of the hurricane related expenses and reconstruction costs and the lost income resulting from the related interruption of business at the impacted properties.

Included in our financial results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 are hurricane related expenses of approximately $3.4 million consisting of $2.2 million related to property damage and $1.2 million related to remediation and demolition expenses. Also included in our financial results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 are hurricane related insurance recoveries of approximately $3.4 million ($1.5 million of which was received in September, 2017), reflecting probable recovery of our preliminary estimate of hurricane related expenses which we believe are less than the total commercial insurance proceeds due to us in connection with property damage and related expenses. As of September 30, 2017, our financial statements do not include any business interruption insurance recoveries, however, we expect that business interruption insurance recoveries will be recognized in future periods when recovery proceeds are probable and/or insurance carrier notifications are received.

The hurricane related expenses and insurance recoveries recorded to date are based upon our preliminary damage assessments of the real property at each of the above-mentioned properties.  However, due to the nature and extent of the damage to the each property and the surrounding communities, a complete and final assessment to determine the exact nature and extent of the losses at each property has not yet been completed. We are therefore unable to assess the ultimate damage sustained at each property, the ultimate repair cost of the damaged property or the amount of total insurance recoveries we may ultimately receive. Although we believe that our ultimate insurance recoveries for claims related to hurricane losses will exceed the combined net book value of the damaged property and the incurred hurricane related expenses, the timing and amount of such proceeds cannot be determined at this time, since it will be based upon factors such as ultimate replacement costs of damaged assets and the ultimate value of the business interruption claims. Therefore, it is likely that we will record additional hurricane related expenses and hurricane insurance recoveries in future periods related to Hurricane Harvey, which could be material.      its own segment.

Forward Looking Statements and Certain Risk Factors

You should carefully review all of the information contained in this Quarterly Report, and should particularly consider any risk factors that we set forth in this Quarterly Report and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In this Quarterly Report, we state our beliefs of future events and of our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify those so-called “forward-looking statements” by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “appears,” “projects” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense. You should be aware that those statements are only our predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating those statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlinedincorporated by reference in Item 1A Risk Factors and described elsewhere herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162019 in Item 1A Risk Factors and in Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Forward Looking Statements. Those factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any of our forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by which, such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking information is based on information available at the time and/or our good faith belief with respect to future events, and is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements. Such factors include, among other things, the following:  

a substantial portion of our revenues are dependent upon one operator, Universal Health Services, Inc. (“UHS”). We cannot assure you that subsidiaries of UHS will renew the leases on our three acute care hospitals (which are scheduled to expire in December, 2021) and two FEDs at existing lease rates or fair market value lease rates. In addition, if subsidiaries of UHS exercise their options to purchase the respective leased hospital facilities and FEDs upon expiration of the lease terms, our future revenues and results of operations could decrease if we were unable to earn a favorable rate of return on the sale proceeds received, as compared to the rental revenue currently earned pursuant to these leases;

Future operations and financial results of our tenants, and in turn ours, will likely be materially impacted by numerous factors and future developments related to COVID-19.   Such factors and developments include, but are not limited to, the length of time and severity of the spread of the pandemic; the volume of cancelled or rescheduled elective procedures and the volume of COVID-19 patients treated by the operators of our hospitals and other healthcare facilities; measures our tenants are taking to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic; the impact of government and administrative regulation, including travel bans and restrictions, shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders, quarantines, the promotion of social distancing, business shutdowns and limitations on business activity; changes in patient volumes at our tenants’ hospitals and other healthcare facilities due to patients’ general concerns related to the risk of contracting COVID-19 from interacting with the healthcare system; the impact of stimulus on the health care industry and our tenants; changes in patient volumes and payer mix caused by deteriorating macroeconomic conditions (including increases in uninsured and underinsured patients as the result of business closings and layoffs); potential disruptions to clinical staffing and shortages and disruptions related to supplies required for our tenants’ employees and patients, including equipment, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies, particularly personal protective equipment, or PPE; potential increases to expenses incurred by our tenants related to staffing, supply chain or other expenditures; the impact of our indebtedness and the ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms; disruptions in the financial markets and the business of financial institutions as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic which could impact our ability to access capital or increase associated borrowing costs; and changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in the markets our properties are located resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, including higher sustained rates of unemployment and underemployment levels and reduced consumer spending and confidence.  There may be significant declines in future bonus rental revenue earned on our hospital  properties leased to subsidiaries of UHS  to the extent that each hospital continues to experience significant decline in patient volumes and revenues. These factors may result in the inability or unwillingness on the part of some of our tenants to make timely payment of their rent to us at current levels or to seek to amend or terminate their leases which,

in certain of our markets, the general real estate market has been unfavorably impacted by increased competition/capacity and decreases in occupancy and rental rates which may adversely impact our operating results and the underlying value of our properties;


in turn, would have an adverse effect on our occupancy levels and our revenue and cash flow and the value of our properties, and potentially, our ability to maintain our dividend at current levels.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions and its impact on the economy, we may experience a decrease in prospective tenants which could unfavorably impact the volume of new leases, as well as the renewal rate of existing leases. The COVID-19 pandemic may delay our construction projects which could result in increased costs and delay the timing of opening and rental payments from those projects, although no such delays have yet occurred. The COVID-19 pandemic could also impact our indebtedness and the ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms, as well as risks associated with disruptions in the financial markets and the business of financial institutions as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic which could impact us from a financing perspective; and changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in the markets our properties are located resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. We are not able to fully quantify the impact that these factors will have on our financial results during 2020, but developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic are likely to have a material adverse impact on our future financial results.

a number of legislative initiatives have recently been passed into law that may result in major changes in the health care delivery system on a national or state level to the operators of our facilities, including UHS. No assurances can be given that the implementation of these new laws will not have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of our operators;

Recent legislation, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act (“PPPHCE Act”), has provided funding to hospitals and other healthcare providers to assist them during the COVID-19 pandemic.  There is a high degree of uncertainty surrounding the implementation of the CARES Act and the PPPHCE Act, and the federal government may consider additional stimulus and relief efforts, but we are unable to predict whether additional stimulus measures will be enacted or their impact.  There can be no assurance as to the total amount of financial and other types of assistance our tenants will receive under the CARES Act and the PPPHCE Act, and it is difficult to predict the impact of such legislation on our tenants’ operations or how they will affect operations of our tenants’ competitors.  Moreover, we are unable to assess the extent to which anticipated negative impacts on our tenants (and, in turn, us) arising from the COVID-19 pandemic will be offset by amounts or benefits received or to be received under the CARES Act and the PPPHCE Act.

a subsidiary of UHS is our Advisor and our officers are all employees of a wholly-owned subsidiary of UHS, which may create the potential for conflicts of interest;

A substantial portion of our revenues are dependent upon one operator, UHS, which comprised approximately 32% and 30% of our consolidated revenues for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and approximately 32% and 31% if our consolidated revenues for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  We cannot assure you that subsidiaries of UHS will renew the leases on our three acute care hospitals (two of which are scheduled to expire in December, 2021 and one of which is scheduled to expire in December, 2026) and two FEDs at existing lease rates or fair market value lease rates. In addition, if subsidiaries of UHS exercise their options to purchase the respective leased hospital facilities and FEDs upon expiration of the lease terms, our future revenues and results of operations could decrease if we were unable to earn a favorable rate of return on the sale proceeds received, as compared to the rental revenue currently earned pursuant to these leases.

lost revenues resulting from the exercise of purchase options, lease expirations and renewals, loan repayments and other restructuring;

In certain of our markets, the general real estate market has been unfavorably impacted by increased competition/capacity and decreases in occupancy and rental rates which may adversely impact our operating results and the underlying value of our properties.

A number of legislative initiatives have recently been passed into law that may result in major changes in the health care delivery system on a national or state level to the operators of our facilities, including UHS. No assurances can be given that the implementation of these new laws will not have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of our operators.

Pending limits for most federal agencies and programs aimed at reducing budget deficits by $917 billion between 2012 and 2021, according to a report released by the Congressional Budget Office. Among its other provisions, the law established a bipartisan Congressional committee, known as the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction (the “Joint Committee”), which was tasked with making recommendations aimed at reducing future federal budget deficits by an additional $1.5 trillion over 10 years. The Joint Committee was unable to reach an agreement by the November 23, 2011 deadline and, as a result, across-the-board cuts to discretionary, national defense and Medicare spending were implemented on March 1, 2013 resulting in Medicare payment reductions of up to 2% per fiscal year with a uniform percentage reduction across all Medicare programs. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, enacted on November 2, 2015, continued the 2% reductions to Medicare reimbursement imposed under the Budget Control Act of 2011. The CARES Act suspended payment reductions between May 1 and December 31, 2020, in exchange for extended cuts through 2030.    We cannot predict whether Congress will restructure the implemented Medicare payment reductions or what other federal budget deficit reduction initiatives may be proposed by Congress going forward.  We also cannot predict the effect these enactments will have on the operators of our properties (including UHS), and thus, our business.

An increasing number of legislative initiatives have been passed into law that may result in major changes in the health care delivery system on a national or state level. Legislation has already been enacted that has eliminated the penalty for


 

in March, 2010,failing to maintain health coverage that was part of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 and theoriginal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the “ACA”) were enacted into law and created significant changesHealthcare and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively referred to as the “Legislation”). President Trump has already taken executive actions: (i) requiring all federal agencies with authorities and responsibilities under the Legislation to “exercise all authority and discretion available to them to waiver, defer, grant exemptions from, or delay” parts of the Legislation that place “unwarranted economic and regulatory burdens” on states, individuals or health care providers; (ii) the issuance of a final rule in June, 2018 by the Department of Labor to enable the formation of association health plans that would be exempt from certain Legislation requirements such as the provision of essential health benefits; (iii) the issuance of a final rule in August, 2018 by the Department of Labor, Treasury, and Health and Human Services to expand the availability of short-term, limited duration health insurance, coverage(iv) eliminating cost-sharing reduction payments to insurers that would otherwise offset deductibles and other out-of-pocket expenses for U.S. citizens as well as material revisions tohealth plan enrollees at or below 250 percent of the federal Medicarepoverty level; (v) relaxing requirements for state innovation waivers that could reduce enrollment in the individual and state Medicaid programs.small group markets and lead to additional enrollment in short-term, limited duration insurance and association health plans; (vi) the issuance of a final rule in June, 2019 by the Departments of Labor, Treasury, and Health and Human Services that would incentivize the use of health reimbursement arrangements by employers to permit employees to purchase health insurance in the individual market, and; (vii) directing the issuance of federal rulemaking by executive agencies to increase transparency of healthcare price and quality information.  The two combined primary goals ofuncertainty resulting from these acts areExecutive Branch policies has led to provide for increased accessreduced Exchange enrollment in 2018 and 2019 and is expected to coverage for healthcarefurther worsen the individual and to reduce healthcare-related expenses. Medicare, Medicaidsmall group market risk pools in future years.  It is also anticipated that these and other health care industry changes are scheduled to be implemented at various times during this decade.  Initiativesfuture policies may create additional cost and reimbursement pressures on hospitals, including ours. In addition, while attempts to repeal the ACA, in whole or in part, to delay elementsentirety of implementation or funding, and to offer amendments or supplements to modify its provisions, have been persistent. The ultimate outcomes of legislative attempts to repeal or amend the ACA have not been successful to date, a key provision of the ACA was repealed as part of the Tax Cuts and legal challengesJobs Act and on December 14, 2018, a federal U.S. District Court Judge in Texas ruled the entire ACA is unconstitutional. That ruling was stayed and has been appealed. On December 18, 2019, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals voted 2-1 to strike down the ACA individual mandate as unconstitutional and sent the case back to the U.S. District Court in Texas to determine which ACA provisions should be stricken with the mandate. On March 2, 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear, during the 2020-2021 term, two consolidated cases, filed by the State of California and the United States House of Representatives, asking the Supreme Court to review the ruling by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. Oral argument is expected in late 2020, and a ruling is not expected until after the November 2020 election. We are unable to predict the final outcome of this matter which has caused greater uncertainty regarding the future status of the ACA. If all or any parts of the ACA are unknown.  Recent Congressionalultimately found to be unconstitutional, it could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and Presidential election results created a political environment in which there have been repeated attempts to repeal or replace substantial portionsof operations of the ACA; operators of our properties, and, thus, our business. 

in May, 2017, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to adopt legislation ( the “AHCA”) to replace portions of the ACA. The legislation featured provisions that would have, in material part (i) eliminated the individual and large employer mandates to obtain or provide health insurance coverage, respectively; (ii) permitted insurers to impose a surcharge up to 30 percent on individuals who go uninsured for more than two months and then purchase coverage; (iii) provided tax credits towards the purchase of health insurance, with a phase-out of tax credits according to income level; (iv) expanded health savings accounts; (v) imposed a per capita cap on federal funding of state Medicaid programs, or, if elected by a state, transitioned federal funding to a block grant; and (vi) permitted states to seek a waiver of certain federal requirements that would allow such states to define essential health benefits differently from federal standards and that would have allowed certain commercial health plans to take health status, including pre-existing conditions, into account in setting premiums. Between June and September, 2017, the U.S. Senate evaluated various forms of proposed legislation substantially similar to the AHCA. The most recently evaluated healthcare bill would have provided block grants to states to use for health care, repealed the expansion of Medicaid under the ACA, and eliminated the tax credits that assist people purchasing insurance on the ACA exchanges. As of the date of this report, the Senate has not passed any of the various proposed forms of healthcare legislation.  It is uncertain when or if any other bills similar to the AHCA or other bills amending or repealing all of portions of the ACA will be enacted. Effective September 30, 2017, the Senate lost the ability to adopt healthcare legislation by simple majority under reconciliation without another vote approving that process. However, Congress may seek to include legislative provisions similar to those adopted in the AHCA and as otherwise described herein in the fiscal year 2018 budget resolution or other omnibus legislation;

on October 11, 2017 President Trump signed an executive order directing the formation of association health plans that would be exempt from certain ACA requirements such as the essential health benefits mandate. The executive order also: (i) provides for expanded access to short-term health plans that are limited under the ACA; (ii) seeks to expand how workers use employer-funded accounts to purchase their own policies; and (iii) calls for an analysis of ways to limit consolidation within the insurance and health care industries;

additionally, on October 12, 2017, President Trump announced that ACA cost-sharing reduction payments will no longer be made to insurers. Cost sharing reduction payments help offset deductibles and other out-of-pocket expenses for exchange health insurance coverage for approximately seven million individuals earning up to 250 percent of the federal poverty level.  The Congressional Budget Office previously reported that if cost sharing reduction payments were to end, premiums for silver-level plans would increase by 20 percent in 2018.  Eighteen states and the District of Columbia filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California challenging the Administration’s action and asking the court to issue a preliminary injunction, which was subsequently denied by the court, mandating that the Administration continue to make cost sharing reduction payments. The Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions announced a bipartisan proposal intended to continue cost sharing reduction payments, but no such legislation has been passed to date;

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  

We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require us to make significant judgments and estimates when we prepare our financial statements, including the following:

Revenue Recognition:  Our revenues consist primarily of rentals received from tenants, which are comprised of minimum rent (base rentals), bonus rentals and reimbursements from tenants for their pro-rata share of expenses such as common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and utilities.

The minimum rent for our six hospital facilities, which is paid monthly, is fixed over the term of the respective leases which are scheduled to expire in 2019 (2 hospitals) or 2021 (4 hospitals). In addition, for the three hospital facilities leased to subsidiaries of UHS, bonus rents are paid on a quarterly basis, based upon a computation that compares the hospitals’ current quarter net revenues to the corresponding quarter in the base year. Rental income recorded by our other properties, including our consolidated and unconsolidated MOBs, relating to leases in excess of one year in length, is recognized using the straight-line method under which contractual rents are recognized evenly over the lease term regardless of when payments are due. The amount of rental revenue resulting from straight-line rent adjustments is dependent on many factors including the nature and amount of any rental concessions granted to new tenants, stipulated rent increases under existing leases, as well as the acquisitions and sales of properties that have existing in-place leases with terms in excess of one year. As a result, the straight-line adjustments to rental revenue may vary from period-to-period. Tenant reimbursements for operating expenses are accrued as revenue in the same period the related expenses are incurred.


Real Estate Investments: Land, buildings and capital improvements are recorded at cost and stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.  Renovations or replacements, which improve or extend the life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Investments in Real Estate:  Purchase accounting is applied to the assets and liabilities related to all real estate investments acquired from third parties. In accordance with current accounting guidance,, we account for our property acquisitions as acquisitions of assets, which requires the capitalization of acquisition costs to the underlying assets and prohibits the recognition of goodwill or bargain purchase gains. The fair value of the real estate acquired is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting primarily of land, building and tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, and acquired ground leases, based in each case on their fair values. Loan premiums, in the case of above market rate assumed loans, or loan discounts, in the case of below market assumed loans, are recorded based on the fair value of any loans assumed in connection with acquiring the real estate.

 

The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property are determined based on comparable land sales for land and replacement costs adjusted for physical and market obsolescence for the improvements. The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property are also determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on management’s determination of the relative fair values of these assets. Management determines the as-if-vacant fair value of a property based on assumptions that a market participant would use, which is similar to methods used by independent appraisers. In addition, there is intangible value related to having tenants leasing space in the purchased property, which is referred to as in-place lease value. Such value results primarily from the buyer of a leased property avoiding the costs associated with leasing the property and also avoiding rent losses and unreimbursed operating expenses during the hypothetical lease-up period. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, legal and other related costs. The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases.

 

In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) estimated fair market lease rates from the perspective of a market participant for the corresponding in-place leases, measured, for above-market leases, over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease and, for below-market leases, over a period equal to the initial term plus any below market fixed rate renewal periods. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental


income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values, also referred to as acquired lease obligations, are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial terms of the respective leases.

Asset Impairment:We review each of our properties for indicators that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Examples of such indicators may include a significant decrease in the market price of the property, a change in the expected holding period for the property, a significant adverse change in how the property is being used or expected to be used based on the underwriting at the time of acquisition, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or development of the property, or a history of operating or cash flow losses of the property. When such impairment indicators exist, we review an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows (excluding interest charges) expected to result from the real estate investment’s use and eventual disposition and compare that estimate to the carrying value of the property. We consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If our future undiscounted net cash flow evaluation indicates that we are unable to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property. These losses have a direct impact on our net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results in future periods. Since cash flows on properties considered to be long-lived assets to be held and used are considered on an undiscounted basis to determine whether the carrying value of a property is recoverable, our strategy of holding properties over the long-term directly decreases the likelihood of their carrying values not being recoverable and therefore requiring the recording of an impairment loss. If our strategy changes or market conditions otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss may be recognized and such loss could be material. If we determine that the asset fails the recoverability test, the affected assets must be reduced to their fair value.

 

We generally estimate the fair value of rental properties utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis that includes projections of future revenues, expenses and capital improvement costs that a market participant would use based on the highest and best use of the asset, which is similar to the income approach that is commonly utilized by appraisers. In certain cases, we may supplement this analysis by obtaining outside broker opinions of value or third party appraisals.

 


In considering whether to classify a property as held for sale, we consider factors such as whether management has committed to a plan to sell the property, the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition for a price that is reasonable in relation to its current value, the sale of the property is probable, and actions required for management to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that any significant changes will made to the plan.  If all the criteria are met, we classify the property as held for sale.  Upon being classified as held for sale, depreciation and amortization related to the property ceases and it is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The assets and related liabilities of the property are classified separately on the consolidated balance sheets for the most recent reporting period. Only those assets held for sale that constitute a strategic shift or that will have a major effect on our operations are classified as discontinued operations. 

An other than temporary impairment of an investment in an unconsolidated LLC is recognized when the carrying value of the investment is not considered recoverable based on evaluation of the severity and duration of the decline in value, including projected declines in cash flow. To the extent impairment has occurred, the excess carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value is charged to income.

Federal Income Taxes:    No provision has been made for federal income tax purposes since we qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and intend to continue to remain so qualified.   As such,To qualify as a REIT, we are exempt from federal income taxesmust meet certain organizational and we are requiredoperational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our real estate investmentannual REIT taxable income to shareholders. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal, state or local income tax on income that we distribute as dividends to our shareholders.

We are subject to a federal excise tax computed on a calendar year basis. The excise tax equals 4% of the amount by which 85% of our ordinary income plus 95% of any capital gain income for the calendar year exceeds cash distributions during the calendar year, as defined. No provision for excise tax has been reflected in the financial statements as no tax was due.

Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of dividends to shareholders, will differ from net income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal tax purposes in the cost basis of assets and in the estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation and the recording of provision for investment losses.

Results of Operations

During the three-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2020, net income increased to $4.0was $4.7 million, as compared to $3.8$4.3 million during the thirdsecond quarter of 2016.2019.  The $142,000$439,000 increase was primarily attributable to:

$694,000 decrease resulting from lease expirations on two hospital facilities located in Corpus Christi, Texas, and Evansville, Indiana, that occurred on June 1, 2019 and September 30, 2019, respectively (each facility has remained vacant since the respective date of lease expiration);

$765,000 increase resulting from a decrease in interest expense, primarily due to a decrease in our average cost of borrowings under our revolving credit agreement, partially offset by an increase in our average outstanding borrowings, and;

a $726,000 decrease in equity in income of LLCs, due primarily to the March, 2017 divestiture of St. Mary’s;

a $350,000 increase due to a decrease in transaction cost expense, and;

$675,000 of other combined net increases due to the increased net income generated at various properties, including the properties acquired during 2016.

Included in our other operating expenses are expenses related to the consolidated medical office buildings and two vacant hospital facilities (as discussed herein), which totaled $4.4$4.7 million and $4.1$4.5 million for the three-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively, and $13.0$9.4 million and $12.1$9.0 million for the nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively.  The increase in operating expenses during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year periods is partially due to new acquisitions as discussed above. A large portion of the expenses associated with our consolidated medical office buildings is passed on directly to the tenants either directly as tenant reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses or included in base rental amounts. Tenant reimbursements for operating expenses are accrued as revenue in the same period the related expenses are incurred and are included as tenant reimbursementlease revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of income. Included in our operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, is $183,000 and $381,000, respectively, of aggregate operating expenses related to the two above-mentioned vacant hospital facilities located in Corpus Christi, Texas, and Evansville, Indiana.

Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a widely recognized measure of performance for REITs.Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”). We believe that FFO and FFO per diluted share, and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) and AFFO per diluted share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, (“GAAP” is Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America), are helpful to our investors as measures of our operating performance. We compute FFO, as reflected below,on the attached Supplemental Schedules, in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than we interpret the definition. FFO adjusts for the effects of gains, such as gains on transactions that occurred during the periods presented.    AFFO was also computed forTo the threeextent a REIT recognizes a gain or loss with respect to the sale of incidental assets, such as the sale of land peripheral to operating properties, the REIT has the option to exclude or include such gains and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017, as discussed herein, since we believe it is helpfullosses in the calculation of FFO.  We have opted to exclude gains and losses from sales of incidental assets in our investors since it adjusts for the hurricane accounting impact on our financial statements.calculation of FFO.  FFO and AFFO dodoes not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, FFO and AFFO should not be used as: (i) an indication of our financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP; (ii) an alternative to cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP; (iii) a measure of our liquidity, or; (iv) an indicator of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to shareholders.

Hurricane Harvey Impact

In late August, 2017, five ofborrowings pursuant to our medical office buildings listed below located in the Houston, Texas area incurred extensive water damage as a result of Hurricane Harvey. Since the hurricane, each of these properties remain temporarily closed and non-operational as we continue to assess the damage before restoring the properties to an operational condition. Although we can provide no assurance


on the estimated re-opening dates, it is expected that the buildings will be closed through the remainder of 2017 and into the first half of 2018.  In the aggregate, these properties comprised approximately 2% of our consolidated revenues and funds from operationsrevolving credit agreement (2.2% during the six months ended June 30, 2017.  2020 as compared to 3.7% in the comparable six-month period of 2019), partially offset by an increase in our average outstanding borrowings ($214.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $195.0 million in the comparable 2019 six month-period); (ii) a $253,000 net increase in interest rate swap/caps expense during the six-months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the comparable period in 2019; (iii) a $80,000 decrease in mortgage interest expense, resulting primarily from the repayment of a mortgage loan during the second quarter of 2019; (iv) a $126,000 decrease in interest expense related to capitalized interest on major projects, and; (v) $12,000 of other combined net increases in interest expense.

 

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic began to significantly impact the United States in mid-March, 2020.  As discussed below,a result of various policies implemented by the federal and state governments, and varying by individual state, many non-essential businesses in the nation were closed for varying time periods. With the exception of the operators of our four preschool and childcare centers, which were closed from mid-March until mid-June, we believe we are entitledthat most of the tenants occupying our hospitals, medical office buildings (“MOBs”) and ambulatory care centers were permitted to insurance recovery proceeds forcontinue operating if they elected to do so.  

Tenants representing approximately 98% of our occupied square footage have paid their June rent. We believe that as of June 30, 2020, substantially all of our tenants have resumed operations of their businesses. However, many of our properties are located in states that have experienced significant increases in COVID-19 infections in June, July and early August. Such states include Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Nevada and Texas.  Although COVID-19 has not had a material adverse impact on our results of operations through June 30, 2020, we believe that the costs incurred relatedpotentially adverse impact that the pandemic may have on our future operations and financial results of our tenants, and in turn ours, will depend upon many factors, most of which are beyond our, or our tenants’, ability to control or predict. Since the remediation, repair and reconstruction ofunderlying businesses in each of these properties, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations. In addition, during the period that theseour properties are non-operational, we believe we are entitled to business interruption insurance recoveries foroperated by the lost income related to each of these properties, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations.

Properties damaged and closed from Hurricane Harvey:

Cypresswood Professional Center – located in Spring, Texas and consisting of two MOBs.

Professional Buildings at King’s Crossing – located in Kingwood, Texas and consisting of two MOBs.

Kelsey-Seybold Clinic at King’s Crossing – located in Kingwood, Texas and consisting of one MOB.

Hurricane related expenses and recoveries:

At the time of the hurricane, we maintained insurance policies with a commercial insurance carrier providing for property damage coverage, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations, of up to $20 million in the aggregate applicable to the impacted properties and up to $50 million in the aggregate for business interruption coverage pursuant to a shared limit policy. Additionally, we have insurance coverage under the National Flood Insurance Program providing for property damage coverage of up to $500,000 per each of the 5 buildings, subject to certain deductibles and other limitations. When all property insurance coverage and deductibles applicable to the above-mentioned hurricane damaged buildings are considered, we believe we are entitled to recovery of substantially all hurricane related expenses and reconstruction costs, less an aggregate net deductible of $25,000.  In addition, pursuant to the business interruption policy, we believe we are entitled to substantially all lost income at these properties resulting from the hurricane, less an aggregate deductible of $100,000. However,tenants, we can provide no assurance that the businesses will continue to operate in the future, or stay current with their lease obligations.  

Since the bonus rents earned by us on the three acute care hospitals leased to wholly-owned subsidiaries of Universal Health Services, Inc., are computed based upon a computation that compares each hospital’s current quarter revenue to the corresponding quarter in the base year, we will ultimately collect, after satisfaction ofcould experience significant declines in future bonus rental revenue earned on these properties should those hospitals continue to experience significant declines in patient volumes and revenues. These hospitals believe that, to the applicable deductibles, substantially all of the hurricane relatedextent that they experience revenue declines and increased expenses and reconstruction costs and the lost income resulting from the related interruptionCOVID-19 pandemic, as ultimately measured over the life of business at the impacted properties.

Included in ourpandemic, they are eligible for emergency fund grants as provided for by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). Our financial resultsstatements for the three and nine-monthsix-month periods ended June 30, 2020 include bonus rental attributable to revenues recorded by these three hospitals in connection with CARES Act grants.      

Throughout the common areas of many properties in our portfolio, we have implemented COVID-19 risk mitigating actions such as, enhanced cleaning protocols including supplemental cleaning and sanitizing of high-touch points, limiting points of entry at certain facilities, and coordinating with health care providers to assess or screen patients prior to entering certain of our MOBs.


Lease Expirations/Vacancies of Two Hospital Facilities

As previously disclosed, the tenants in two of our hospital facilities had provided notice to us that they did not intend to renew the leases upon the scheduled expiration of the respective facilities. The leases on these two hospital facilities, located in Evansville, Indiana, and Corpus Christi, Texas, expired on May 31, 2019 and June 1, 2019, respectively. Prior to the vacancy of the property on September 30, 2017 are hurricane related expenses2019, the former tenant of approximately $3.4 million consistingthe hospital located in Evansville, Indiana, entered into a short-term lease with us, which covered the period of $2.2 million relatedJune 1, 2019 through September 30, 2019, at a substantially increased lease rate as compared to property damagethe original lease rate.

The combined lease revenue generated at these facilities amounted to $537,000 and $1.2 million related to remediation and demolition expenses. Also included in our financial results for$900,000 during the three and nine-monthsix-month periods ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The hospital located in Evansville, Indiana, has remained vacant since September 30, 2017 are hurricane related insurance recoveries of approximately $3.4 million ($1.5 million of which was received2019 and the hospital located in September, 2017), reflecting probable recovery of our preliminary estimate of hurricane related expenses which we believe are less than the total commercial insurance proceeds dueCorpus Christi, Texas, has remained vacant since June 1, 2019.  

We continue to us in connection with property damage and related expenses. As of September 30, 2017, our financial statements do not include any business interruption insurance recoveries, however, we expect that business interruption insurance recoveries will be recognized in future periods when recovery proceeds are probable and/or insurance carrier notifications are received.

The hurricane related expenses and insurance recoveries recorded to date are based upon our preliminary damage assessments of the real property at each of the above-mentioned properties.  However, due to the nature and extent of the damage to themarket each property for lease to new tenants. However, should these properties continue to remain owned and vacant for an extended period of time, or should we experience decreased lease rates on future leases, as compared to prior/expired lease rates, or incur substantial renovation costs to make the surrounding communities, a complete and final assessment to determine the exact nature and extentproperties suitable for other operators/tenants, our future results of the losses at each property has not yet been completed. We are therefore unable to assess the ultimate damage sustained at each property, the ultimate repair cost of the damaged property or the amount of total insurance recoveries we may ultimately receive. Although we believe that our ultimate insurance recoveries for claims related to hurricane losses will exceed the combined net book value of the damaged property and the incurred hurricane related expenses, the timing and amount of such proceeds cannot be determined at this time, since it will be based upon factors such as ultimate replacement costs of damaged assets and the ultimate value of the business interruption claims. Therefore, it is likely that we will record additional hurricane related expenses and hurricane insurance recoveries in future periods related to Hurricane Harvey, whichoperations could be material.materially unfavorably impacted.

Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $33.6$23.2 million during the nine-monthsix-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 as compared to $29.8$21.5 million during the comparable period of 2016.2019. The $3.9$1.8 million net increase was attributable to:

a favorable net change of $1.6 million due to an increase in net income plus/minus the adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities (depreciation and amortization, amortization of debt premium, stock-based compensation, hurricane related expenses and recoveries and gain on Arlington transaction), as discussed above in Results of Operations;

a favorable change of $2.9 million in tenant reserves, deposits and deferred and prepaid rents;


A favorable change of $758,000 due to an increase in net income plus/minus the adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities (depreciation and amortization, amortization related to above/below market leases, amortization of debt premium, amortization of deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation and gain on sale of land), as discussed above;

Additional cash flow and dividends paid information for the nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016:2019:

As indicated on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, we generated net cash provided by operating activities of $33.6$23.2 million and $29.8$21.5 million during the nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively. As also indicated on our statement of cash flows, noncashnon-cash expenses including depreciation and amortization expense, amortization related to above/below market leases, amortization of debt premium, amortization of deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation expense hurricane related expenses and recoveries and the gain recorded during the first nine months of 2017on transaction (as applicable) are the primary differences between our net income and net cash provided by operating activities during each period. In addition, as reflected in the cash flows from investing activities section, we received $1.1

We declared and paid dividends of $18.9 million and $318,000 during the nine-month periodssix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016, respectively,declared dividends of cash distributions$18.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 ($9.4 million of which was paid in excessJuly, 2019).  During the first six months of income from various unconsolidated LLCs which represents our share of2020, the net cash flow distributions from these entities. The cash distributions in excess of income represent operating cash flows net of capital expenditures and debt repayments made by the LLCs.

We therefore generated $34.7 million and $30.1$23.2 million of net cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to theprovided by operating activities of our properties recorded on a consolidated and an unconsolidated basis. We paid dividends of $26.9 million and $26.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. During the first nine months of 2017, the $34.7 million of net cash generated related to the operating activities of our properties was approximately $7.8$4.3 million greater than the $26.9 $18.9��million of dividends paid during the first ninesix months of 2017.2020. During the first ninesix months of 2016,2019, the $30.1$21.5 million of net cash generated related to theprovided by operating activities of our properties was $3.8approximately $2.9 million greater thanthat the $26.2$18.6 million of dividends paiddeclared during the first ninesix months of 2016.2019.  

As indicated in the cash flows from investing activities and cash flows from financing activities sections of the statements of cash flows, there were various other sources and uses of cash during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172020 and 2016.2019.  From time to time, various other sources and uses of cash may include items such as investments and advances made to/from LLCs, additions to real estate investments, acquisitions/divestiture of properties, net borrowings/repayments of debt, and proceeds generated from the issuance of equity. Therefore, in any given period, the funding source for our dividend payments is not wholly dependent on the operating cash flow generated by our properties. Rather, our dividends as well as our capital reinvestments into our existing properties, acquisitions of real property and other investments are funded based upon the aggregate net cash inflows or outflows from all sources and uses of cash from the properties we own either in whole or through LLCs, as outlined above.

In determining and monitoring our dividend level on a quarterly basis, our management and Board of Trustees consider many factors in determining the amount of dividends to be paid each period. These considerations primarily include: (i) the minimum required amount of dividends to be paid in order to maintain our REIT status; (ii) the current and projected operating results of our properties, including those owned in LLCs, and; (iii) our future capital commitments and debt repayments, including those of our LLCs. Based upon the information discussed above, as well as consideration of projections and forecasts of our future operating cash flows, management and the Board of Trustees have determined that our operating cash flows have been sufficient to fund our dividend payments. Future dividend levels will be determined based upon the factors outlined above with consideration given to our projected future results of operations.

We expect to finance all capital expenditures and acquisitions and pay dividends utilizing internally generated and additional funds. Additional funds may be obtained through: (i) borrowings under our existing $250$350 million revolving credit agreement (which has $71.8had $123.1 million of available borrowing capacity, net of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017)2020); (ii) borrowings under or refinancing of existing third-party debt pursuant to mortgage loan agreements entered into by our consolidated and unconsolidated LLCs/LPs; (iii) the issuance of equity pursuant to our ATM program, and/or; (iv) the issuance of other long-term debt.

We believe that our operating cash flows, cash and cash equivalents, available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit agreement and access to the capital markets provide us with sufficient capital resources to fund our operating, investing and financing requirements for the next twelve months, including providing sufficient capital to allow us to make distributions necessary to enable


us to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. In the event we need to access the capital markets or other sources of financing, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on acceptable


terms or within an acceptable time. Our inability to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us could have a material unfavorable impact on our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Credit facilities and mortgage debt

Management routinely monitors and analyzes the Trust’s capital structure in an effort to maintain the targeted balance among capital resources including the level of borrowings pursuant to our $250$350 million revolving credit agreement,facility, the level of borrowings pursuant to non-recourse mortgage debt secured by the real property of our properties and our level of equity including consideration of additional equity issuances pursuant to our ATM equity issuance program.  This ongoing analysis considers factors such as the current debt market and interest rate environment, the current/projected occupancy and financial performance of our properties, the current loan-to-value ratio of our properties, the Trust’s current stock price, the capital resources required for anticipated acquisitions and the expected capital to be generated by anticipated divestitures. This analysis, together with consideration of the Trust’s current balance of revolving credit agreement borrowings, non-recourse mortgage borrowings and equity, assists management in deciding which capital resource to utilize when events such as refinancing of specific debt components occur or additional funds are required to finance the Trust’s growth.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2020, we had $176.7$221.3 million of outstanding borrowings and $1.5$5.6 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement.  We had $71.8$123.1 million of available borrowing capacity, net of the outstanding borrowings and letters of credit outstanding as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2020. There are no compensating balance requirements. At December 31, 2019, we had $213.0 million of outstanding borrowings outstanding against our revolving credit agreement and $87.0 million of available borrowing capacity.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on certain indebtedness, liens, acquisitions and other investments, fundamental changes, asset dispositions and dividends and other distributions. The Credit Agreement also contains restrictive covenants regarding the Trust’s ratio of total debt to total assets, the fixed charge coverage ratio, the ratio of total secured debt to total asset value, the ratio of total unsecured debt to total unencumbered asset value, and minimum tangible net worth, as well as customary events of default, the occurrence of which may trigger an acceleration of amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. We are in compliance with all of the covenants at SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2020 and December 31, 2019. We also believe that we would remain in compliance if, based on the assumption that the majority of the potential new borrowings will be used to fund investments, the full amount of our commitment was borrowed.

In March 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on a total notional amount of $55 million with a fixed interest rate of a 0.565% that we designated as a cash flow hedge.  The interest rate swap became effective on March 25, 2020 and is scheduled to mature on March 25, 2027. If the one-month LIBOR is above 0.565%, the counterparty pays us, and if the one-month LIBOR is less than 0.565%, we pay the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of 0.565% and one-month LIBOR.

In January 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on a total notional amount of $35 million with a fixed interest rate of a 1.4975% that we designated as a cash flow hedge.  The interest rate swap became effective on January 15, 2020 and is scheduled to mature on September 16, 2024. If the one-month LIBOR is above 1.4975%, the counterparty pays us, and if the one-month LIBOR is less than 1.4975%, we pay the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of 1.4975% and one-month LIBOR.  

During the third quarter of 2019, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on a total notional amount of $50 million with a fixed interest rate of a 1.144% that we designated as a cash flow hedge. The interest rate swap became effective on September 16, 2019 and is scheduled to mature on September 16, 2024. If the one-month LIBOR is above 1.144%, the counterparty pays us, and if the one-month LIBOR is less than 1.144%, we pay the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of 1.144% and one-month LIBOR.

We measure our interest rate swaps at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of our interest rate swaps is based on quotes from third parties.  We consider those inputs to be “level 2” in the fair value hierarchy as outlined in the authoritative guidance for disclosures in connection with derivative instruments and hedging activities. At June 30, 2020, the fair value of our interest rate swaps was a net liability of $4.9 million which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the second quarter of 2020, we paid or accrued approximately $182,000 in net payments made to the counterparty by us, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, pursuant to the terms of the swaps (consisting of approximately $201,000 in payments, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, or accruals made to the counterparty by us, offset by approximately $19,000 paid to us by the counterparty).  During the first six months of 2020, we paid or accrued approximately $131,000 in net payments made to the counterparty by us, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, pursuant to the terms of the swaps (consisting of approximately $222,000 in payments, adjusted for the previous quarter accrual, or accruals made to the counterparty by us, offset by approximately $91,000 of payments paid to us by the counterparty).   From inception of the swap agreements through June 30, 2020 we paid or accrued approximately $23,000 in net payments made to the counterparty by us pursuant to the terms of the swap (consisting of approximately $199,000 in payments or accruals made to us by the counterparty, offset by approximately $222,000 of payments due to the counterparty from us).  Cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the fair value of the derivative instrument on the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability, with a corresponding amount recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) within shareholders’ equity.  Amounts are classified from AOCI to the income statement in the period or periods the hedged transaction affects earnings.

The sensitivity analysis related to our fixed and variable rate debt assumes current market rates with all other variables held constant. As of June 30, 2020, the fair value and carrying-value of our debt is approximately $283.6 million and $281.5 million, respectively. As of that date, the fair value exceeds the carrying-value by approximately $2.1 million.


The table below presents information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The interest rate swaps include the $50 million swap agreement entered into during the third quarter of 2019, the $35 million swap agreement entered into in January, 2020 and the $55 million swap agreement entered into in March, 2020. For debt obligations, the amounts of which are as of June 30, 2020, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by contractual maturity dates.

Consists of non-recourse mortgage notes payable.

(b)

Includes $221.3 million of outstanding borrowings under the terms of our $350 million revolving credit agreement.

(c)

Includes a $50 million interest rate swap that became effective on September 16, 2019, and a $35 million interest rate swap that became effective on January 15, 2020, both of which are scheduled to mature during 2024. Additionally included is a $55 million interest rate swap that became effective on March 25, 2020, which is scheduled to mature in 2027.

As calculated based upon our variable rate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2020 that is subject to interest rate fluctuations, and giving effect to the above-mentioned interest rate swap, each 1% change in interest rates would impact our net income by approximately $812,500.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2020, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Trust’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), we performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”).

Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management on a timely basis in order to comply with our disclosure obligations under the 1934 Act and the SEC rules thereunder.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors during the first ninesix months of 20172020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
