NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2013
(Unaudited)
1. Organization
Sentio Healthcare Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed on October 16, 2006 under the Maryland General Corporation Law for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning commercial real estate. As used in this report, the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Sentio Healthcare Properties, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where context otherwise requires. Our business is managed by Sentio Investments, LLC, a Florida limited liability company that was formed on December 20, 2011 (the “Advisor”), which is majority-owned and controlled by John Mark Ramsey, our Chief Executive Officer. Beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008, Sentio Healthcare Properties, Inc. has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”).
Sentio Healthcare Properties OP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), was formed on October 17, 2006. At December 31, 2012, we owned 100% of the interest in the Operating Partnership and the HC Operating Partnership, LP, a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. We anticipate that we will conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership. Our financial statements and the financial statements of the Operating Partnership are consolidated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
For more information regarding our significant accounting policies and estimates, please refer to “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with the guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIEs”), we analyze our variable interests, including investments in partnerships and joint ventures, to determine if the entity in which we have a variable interest is a variable interest entity. Our analysis includes both quantitative and qualitative reviews, based on our review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability, risk and reward sharing experience and financial condition of other partner(s), voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions and financial agreements. We also use quantitative and qualitative analyses to determine if we must consolidate a variable interest entity as the primary beneficiary.
Interim Financial Information
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by our management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and note disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying financial information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. Our accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included on our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC.

| (1) | Littleton Specialty Rehabilitation Facility was completed in April 2012 and the single tenant began paying rent in July 2012, in accordance with the lease. Tenant operations commenced upon licensure of the facility in July 2012. Littleton Specialty Rehabilitation Facility was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the joint venture may be obligated to monetize a portion of our partners’ interest in the appreciation of value in the joint venture property. These obligations may be exercised by our partners, at their sole discretion, up to three times between years two and four of the joint venture. The amount that would be paid upon monetization is subject to change based on a number of factors, including the value of the property, net income earned by the property and payment of preferred returns on equity. On December 17, 2012, our joint venture partner noticed the Company of their intent to exercise their promote monetization right, and the monetization valuation process is proceeding. If the Company elects to satisfy the monetization provision other than through a sale of the property, the potential additional partnership funding obligation is estimated to range between $1.2 million and $1.9 million. |
| (2) | The Physicians Centre MOB joint venture was acquired in April 2012 and has been accounted for under the equity method of accounting beginning with the second quarter of 2012. |
| (3) | The Company acquired the controlling interest in the operations of Rome LTACH in April 2012 and as a result, Rome LTACH was consolidated in the second quarter of 2012. Accordingly, Rome LTACH was accounted for under the equity method of accounting during the three months ended March 31, 2012. |
5. Income Taxes
For federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2008. REIT status imposes limitations related to operating assisted-living properties. Generally, to qualify as a REIT, we cannot directly operate assisted-living facilities. However, such facilities may generally be operated by a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) pursuant to a lease with the Company. Therefore, we have formed Master HC TRS, LLC (“Master TRS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of HC Operating Partnership, LP, to lease any assisted-living properties we acquire and to operate the assisted-living properties pursuant to contracts with unaffiliated management companies. Master TRS and the Company have made the applicable election for Master TRS to qualify as a TRS. Under the management contracts, the management companies have direct control of the daily operations of these assisted-living properties.
Each TRS is a tax paying component for purposes of classifying deferred tax assets and liabilities. We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event we were to determine that we would not be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would establish a valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
The Master TRS recognized a $0.1 million benefit and a $0.2 million expense for Federal and State income taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which have been recorded in general and administrative expenses. Net deferred tax assets related to the TRS entities totaled approximately $1.6 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, related primarily to book and tax basis differences for straight-line rent and accrued liabilities. Realization of these deferred tax assets is dependent in part upon generating sufficient taxable income in future periods. These deferred tax assets are included in deferred costs and other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We have not recorded a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2013 as we have determined that the future projected taxable income from the operations of the TRS entities are sufficient to cover the additional future expenses resulting from these book tax differences.
6. Segment Reporting
As of March 31, 2013, we operated in three reportable business segments: senior living operations, triple-net leased properties, and medical office building (“MOB”) properties. Our senior living operations segment primarily consists of investments in senior housing communities located in the United States for which we engage independent third-party managers. Our triple-net leased properties segment consists of investments in skilled nursing and hospital facilities in the United States. These facilities are leased to healthcare operating companies under long-term “triple-net” or “absolute-net” leases, which require the tenants to pay all property-related expenses. Our medical office building operations segment primarily consists of investing in medical office buildings and leasing those properties to healthcare providers under long-term leases, which may require tenants to pay property-related expenses.
We evaluate performance of the combined properties in each segment based on net operating income. Net operating income is defined as total revenue less property operating and maintenance expenses. There are no intersegment sales or transfers. We use net operating income to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate investments and to make decisions concerning the operation of the property. We believe that net operating income is useful to investors in understanding the value of income-producing real estate. Net income is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to net operating income; however, net operating income should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of operating performance as it excludes certain items such as depreciation and amortization, asset management fees and expenses, real estate acquisition costs, interest expense and corporate general and administrative expenses. Additionally, net operating income as we define it may not be comparable to net operating income as defined by other REITs or companies.
The following tables reconcile the segment activity to consolidated net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

7. Fair Value Measurements
FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825-10,“Financial Instruments”, requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet, for which it is practical to estimate that value. In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04,Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS(“ASU 2011-04”). The amendments in this update result in additional fair value measurement and disclosure requirements within U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards and change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.
Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments.
Level 2. Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified according to the lowest level input that is significant to their valuation. A financial instrument that has a significant unobservable input along with significant observable inputs may still be classified as a Level 3 instrument.
We generally determine or calculate the fair value of financial instruments using quoted market prices in active markets when such information is available or using appropriate present value or other valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating available market discount rate information for similar types of instruments and our estimates for non-performance and liquidity risk. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit spreads, and estimates of future cash flow.
Our balance sheets include the following financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, tenant and other receivables, restricted cash, security deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, distributions payable, and notes payable. We consider the carrying values of our financial instruments, other than notes payable, to approximate fair value because they generally expose the Company to limited credit risk and because of the short period of time between origination of the financial assets and liabilities and their expected settlement.
The fair market value of the Company’s notes payable is estimated by discounting future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect the current market rates available to the Company for debt of the same terms and maturities. The fair value of the notes payable was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Based on the estimates used by the Company, the fair value of notes payable was $144.8 million and $146.2 million, compared to the carrying values of $144.7 ($144.3 million, net of premium) million and $145.4 ($144.9 million, net of premium) million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
There were no transfers between Level 1 or 2 during the three months ended March 31, 2013.
8. Notes Payable
Notes payable were $144.7 million ($144.3 million, net of premium) and $145.4 million ($144.9 million, net of premium) as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. As of March 31, 2013, we had fixed and variable rate secured mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 2.80% to 6.50% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 5.45% per annum. As of March 31, 2013, notes payable consisted of $113.3 million of fixed rate debt, or approximately 79% of notes payable, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.35% per annum and $31.0 million of variable rate debt, or approximately 21% of notes payable, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.83% per annum. As of December 31, 2012, we had fixed and variable rate secured mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 2.80% to 6.50% per annum and a weighted-average effective interest rate of 5.45% per annum. As of December 31, 2012, notes payable consisted of $113.8 million of fixed rate debt, or 79% of notes payable, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.35% per annum and $31.1 million of variable rate debt, or 21% of notes payable, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.83% per annum.
We are required by the terms of the applicable loan documents to meet certain financial covenants, such as debt service coverage ratios, rent coverage ratios and reporting requirements. As of March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all such covenants and requirements.
Principal payments due on our notes payable for April 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 and each of the subsequent years is as follows:
Year | | Principal amount | |
April 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 | | $ | 1,769,000 | |
2014 | | | 8,579,000 | |
2015 | | | 25,420,000 | |
2016 | | | 9,023,000 | |
2017 | | | 2,098,000 | |
2018 and thereafter | | | 97,412,000 | |
| | $ | 144,301,000 | |
Interest Expense and Deferred Financing Cost
For the three months ended March 1, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs of $2.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s net deferred financing costs were approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. All deferred financing costs are capitalized and amortized over the life of the respective loan agreement.
9. Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
Our charter authorizes the issuance of 580,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. As of March 31, 2013, including distributions reinvested, we had issued approximately 13.3 million shares of common stock for a total of approximately $132.3 million of gross proceeds in our initial and follow-on public offerings.
Preferred Stock and OP Units
On February 10, 2013, we entered into a series of agreements with Sentinel RE Investment Holdings LP,”), an affiliate of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (together with its affiliates, “KKR”) for the purpose of obtaining up to a $150 million equity commitment to be used to finance future real estate acquisitions (such investment and the related agreements, are referred to herein collectively as the “KKR Equity Commitment”). Pursuant to the KKR Equity Commitment, we may issue and sell to KKR on a private placement basis from time to time over a period of two to three years, up to $150 million in aggregate issuance amount of preferred securities in the Company and the Operating Partnership. Specifically, the Company may issue up to 1,000 shares of 3% Senior Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), or, subject to receipt of stockholder approval, 3% Senior Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series C, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), in either case representing up to an aggregate issuance amount of $100,000. The Operating Partnership may issue 7.5% Series B Convertible Preferred Units (the “Series B Preferred Units”) up to an aggregate issuance amount of $149.9 million. Subject to certain limitations, the Series B Preferred Units may be converted into common stock of the Company. The obligations of KKR to fund and the Company to draw funds under the KKR Equity Commitment are subject to various conditions, limitations and penalties as more fully outlined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and in the proxy statement related to our 2013 annual meeting of stockholders as filed with the SEC on April 9, 2013.
The Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock will rank senior to the Company’s common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends, as and if authorized by our board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose, at an annual rate equal to 3% the Liquidation Preference (defined below) for each share. The “Liquidation Preference” respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock means the actual issuance price of $100.00 of each share as adjusted for any split, subdivision, combination, consolidation, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the preferred stock, and as further adjusted from time to time for the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends on the preferred stock. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock will be payable annually in arrears.
The Series B Preferred Units will rank senior to the Operating Partnership’s common units with respect to distribution rights and rights on liquidation. The Series B Preferred Units will be entitled to receive cash distributions at an annual rate equal to 7.5% of the Series B Liquidation Preference (defined below) in preference to any distributions paid to common units of the Operating Partnership. If the Operating Partnership is unable to pay cash distributions, distributions will be paid in kind at an annual rate of 10% of the Series B Liquidation Preference. The “Series B Liquidation Preference” means a liquidating distribution in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $100.00 per Series B Preferred Unit plus all accrued and unpaid distributions thereon (including any accumulation in respect of distributions that have not been paid prior to such payment date) and (ii) the amount of the liquidating distributions that would be made on the number of common units into which such Series B Preferred Units are convertible immediately before such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. After payment of the preferred distributions, additional distributions will be paid first to the common units until they have received an aggregate return of 7.5% per unit in annual distributions commencing from February 10, 2013, and thereafter to the common units and Series B Preferred Units pro rata.
As of March 31, 2013, no shares or units had been issued pursuant to the KKR Equity Commitment.
The following are the distributions declared during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:
| | Distributions Declared | | | Cash Flow from | |
Period | | Cash | | | Reinvested | | | Total | | | Operations | |
First quarter 2012 | | $ | 801,000 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 801,000 | | | $ | 1,277,000 | |
First quarter 2013 | | | 1,493,000 | | | | — | | | | 1,493,000 | | | | 2,643,000 | |
Effective October 1, 2012, our board of directors declared distributions for daily record dates occurring in the first quarter of 2013 in amounts per share that, if declared and paid each day for a 365-day period, would equate to an annualized rate of $.475 per share (4.75% based on share price of $10.00). Effective April 1, 2013, our board of directors declared distributions for daily record dates occurring in the second quarter of 2013 in amounts per share that, if declared and paid each day for a 365-day period, would equate to an annualized rate of $.50 per share (5.00% based on a share price of $10.00).
The declaration of distributions is at the discretion of our board of directors and our board will determine the amount of distributions on a regular basis. The amount of distributions will depend on our funds from operations, financial condition, capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and other factors our board of directors deems relevant.
Stock Repurchase Program
In 2007, we adopted a stock repurchase program for investors who had held their shares for at least one year. Under our stock repurchase program, the repurchase price varies depending on the purchase price paid by the stockholder and the number of years the shares are held. Our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the program at any time with 30 days prior notice to stockholders. We have no obligation to repurchase our stockholders’ shares. In 2009, our board of directors waived the one-year holding period in the event of the death of a stockholder and adjusted the repurchase price to 100% of such stockholder’s purchase price if the stockholder held the shares for less than three years.
On April 29, 2011, we informed our stockholders that our Independent Directors Committee had directed us to suspend our public offering, our dividend reinvestment program and our stock repurchase program (except for repurchases due to death). As a result our stock for repurchase program has been suspended since May 29, 2011 for all repurchases, except repurchases due to death of a stockholder.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we repurchased shares pursuant to our stock repurchase program as follows:
Period | | Total Number of Shares Redeemed | | | Average Price Paid per Share | |
First quarter 2013 | | | 60,432 | | | $ | 9.98 | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | 60,432 | | | | | |
10. Related Party Transactions
The Company has no employees. Our Advisor is primarily responsible for managing our business affairs and carrying out the policies established by our board of directors. We are party to an advisory agreement that entitles the Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services to us.
Advisory Agreement and Transition to Internal Management Agreement
Sentio Investments, LLC became our Advisor on January 1, 2012, pursuant to an advisory agreement dated December 22, 2011. As required by our charter, that advisory agreement had a one-year term that ended on December 31, 2012. Effective January 1, 2013, we renewed the advisory agreement on substantially similar terms for an additional one-year term ending on December 31, 2013.
Under the terms of the current advisory agreement, the Advisor is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to present to us investment opportunities to provide a continuing and suitable investment program consistent with the investment policies and objectives adopted by our board of directors. The advisory agreement calls for the Advisor to provide for our day-to-day management and to retain property managers and leasing agents, subject to the authority of our board of directors, and to perform other duties.
On February 10, 2013 in connection with the execution of the KKR Equity Commitment (See Note 9), we entered into a Transition to Internal Management Agreement (the “Transition Agreement”) with our Advisor and KKR. The Transition Agreement provides, following the satisfaction of certain conditions, for certain amendments to the advisory agreement between us and the Advisor and sets forth the terms for our transition to an internal management structure.
The terms of our advisory agreement with our Advisor and the terms of the Transition Agreement are more fully outlined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and in the proxy statement related to our 2013 annual meeting of stockholders as filed with the SEC on April 9, 2013.
The fees and expense reimbursements payable to the Advisor under the advisory agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012 were as follows:
| | Three Months Ended March 31, | |
| | 2013 | | | 2012 | |
Asset management fees | | $ | 648,000 | | | $ | 481,000 | |
Consistent with limitations set forth in our charter, the advisory agreement further provides that, commencing four fiscal quarters after the acquisition of our first real estate asset, we shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter management fees and expenses and operating expenses that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of 2% of our average invested assets or 25% of our net income for such year (the “2%/25% Guidelines”) unless the Independent Directors Committee of our board of directors determines that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which it deems sufficient. If the Independent Directors Committee does not approve such excess as being so justified, the advisory agreement requires that any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company. In addition, our charter provides that, if the Independent Directors Committee does not determine that the Excess Amount is justified, the Advisor shall reimburse us the amount by which the aggregate annual expenses paid to the Advisor during the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines.
For the four quarters ended March 31, 2013, our management fees and expenses and operating expenses totaled did not exceed the greater of 2% of our average invested assets and 25% of our net income.
11. Commitments and Contingencies
We monitor our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. We are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to the properties that we believe would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Our commitments and contingencies include the usual obligations of real estate owners and operators in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, these matters are not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial position, cash flows and results of operations. We are not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Company which if determined unfavorably to us would have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, financial condition or results of operations.
12. Immaterial Corrections to Prior Period Financial Statements
Subsequent to the issuance of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company determined that it should have been accounting for certain investments in joint ventures on the equity method rather than by consolidating these investments. The Company reviewed the impact of these errors on the prior period financial statements and determined that the errors were not material to the financial statements. However, the Company has corrected the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes to reflect these joint venture investments on the equity method of accounting.
A summary of the effects of the correction of these immaterial errors on our consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 is presented in the table below:

Overview
We were incorporated on October 16, 2006 for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning commercial real estate. We intend to invest primarily in real estate including health care properties and other real estate related assets located in markets in the United States.
On June 20, 2008, we commenced an initial public offering of up to 50,000,000 shares of our common stock, consisting of 40,000,000 shares for sale pursuant to a primary offering and 10,000,000 shares for sale pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. We stopped making offers under our initial public offering on February 3, 2011 after raising gross offering proceeds of $123.9 million from the sale of 12.4 million shares, including shares sold under the distribution reinvestment plan. On February 4, 2011, we commenced a follow-on offering of up to 55,000,000 shares of our common stock, consisting of 44,000,000 primary offering shares and 11,000,000 distribution reinvestment plan shares. We suspended all sales pursuant to our follow-on offering on April 29, 2011, and on February 4, 2013 the initial two-year primary offering period for our follow-on offering concluded. We may decide to offer shares pursuant to our follow-on offering in the future, either in a primary offering or pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, at which time we would file an amendment to the follow-on offering registration statement. Under no circumstances could the primary offering period for the follow-on offering extend beyond August 3, 2014, however we could continue to offer shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan beyond that date. As of March 31, 2013, we had sold a total of 12.7 million shares of our common stock pursuant to our initial and follow-on public offerings for aggregate gross proceeds of $127.0 million.
Since January 1, 2012, our business has been managed by Sentio Investments, LLC (the “Advisor”) pursuant to an advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”). As required by our charter, the term of the Advisory Agreement is limited to one year, but can be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year terms. The term of our initial Advisory Agreement ended on December 31, 2012. Effective January 1, 2013, we renewed the Advisory Agreement on substantially similar terms for an additional one-year term ending on December 31, 2013.
On February 10, 2013, we entered into a series of agreements with Sentinel RE Investment Holdings LP, ”), an affiliate of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (together with its affiliates, “KKR”) for the purpose of obtaining up to a $150 million equity commitment to be used to finance future real estate acquisitions (such investment and the related agreements, are referred to herein collectively as the “KKR Equity Commitment”). Pursuant to the KKR Equity Commitment, we may issue and sell to KKR on a private placement basis from time to time over a period of two to three years, up to $150 million in aggregate issuance amount of preferred securities in the Company and the Operating Partnership. The obligations of KKR to fund and the Company to draw funds under the KKR Equity Commitment are subject to various conditions, limitations and penalties as more fully outlined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and in the proxy statement related to our 2013 annual meeting of stockholders as filed with the SEC on April 9, 2013.
In connection with the KKR Equity Commitment we entered into an agreement with our Advisor and KKR (the “Transition Agreement”) that provides, following the satisfaction of certain conditions, for certain amendments to the Advisory Agreement and sets forth the terms for our transition to an internal management structure. The Transition Agreement requires that, unless the parties agree otherwise or certain third party consents cannot be obtained in time, the existing external advisory structure will remain in place upon substantially the same terms as currently in effect for a period of two years from the Transition Agreement date, upon which time the advisory function will be internalized in accordance with procedures set forth in the Transition Agreement. The terms of the Advisory Agreement and the Transition Agreement are more fully outlined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and in the proxy statement related to our 2013 annual meeting of stockholders as filed with the SEC on April 9, 2013.
Our revenues, which are comprised largely of rental income, include rents reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Our growth depends, in part, on our ability to (i) increase rental income and other earned income from leases by increasing rental rates and occupancy levels; (ii) control operating and other; and (iii) maximize tenant recoveries given the underlying lease structures. Our operations are impacted by property specific, market-specific, general economic and other conditions.
Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets
In recent years, both the national and most global economies have experienced substantially increased unemployment and a downturn in economic activity over an extended period. Despite certain recent more positive economic indicators and improved stock market performance, the economic environment continues to be unpredictable and to present challenges that may delay the implementation of our business strategy or force us to modify it.
Despite the economic conditions discussed above, the demand for health care services is projected to continue to grow for the foreseeable future. According to The National Coalition on Healthcare, by 2016 nearly $1 in every $5 in the U.S. will be spent on healthcare, and the aging US population is expected to continue to fuel the need for healthcare services. The over age 65 population of the United States is projected to grow 36% between 2010 and 2020, compared with 9% for the general population, according to the US Census Bureau. Presently, the healthcare real estate market is fragmented, with a local or regional focus, offering opportunities for consolidation and market dominance. We believe that a diversified portfolio of healthcare property types minimizes risks associated with third-party payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid, while also allowing us to capitalize on the favorable demographic trends described above.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC.
Results of Operations
As of March 31, 2013, we operated in three reportable business segments: senior living operations, triple-net leased properties, and medical office building (“MOB”) properties. Our senior living operations segment invests in and directs the operations of assisted-living, memory care and other senior housing communities located in the United States. We engage independent third party managers to operate these properties. Our triple-net leased properties segment invests in healthcare properties in the United States leased under long-term “triple-net” or “absolute-net” leases, which require the tenants to pay all property-related expenses. Our MOB segment invests in medical office buildings and leases those properties to healthcare providers under long-term “full service” leases which may require tenants to reimburse property related expenses to us.
As of March 31, 2013, we owned or had joint venture interests in 20 properties. These properties included fourteen assisted-living facilities which comprise our senior housing segment, one medical office building, which comprises our MOB segment, three operating healthcare facilities, which comprise our triple-net leased segment and one medical office building and net leased healthcare facility held in unconsolidated entities. Four senior living properties, the Leah Bay portfolio, were acquired at the end of August 2012. Physicians Centre MOB, which is held in an unconsolidated entity, was acquired in April 2012. In April 2012, we also acquired our partners’ interests in the Rome LTACH investment, and as a result of the acquisition, the investment is consolidated in our March 31, 2013 condensed consolidated financial statements. The Rome LTACH investment is presented under the equity method in periods prior to the April 2012 acquisition. As of March 31, 2012, we owned or had joint venture interests in 15 properties, including ten assisted-living facilities, one medical office building and four operating healthcare facilities, including one development healthcare facility, held in an unconsolidated joint venture. The results of our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 reflect the acquisitions indicated above that are not included in our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012, and differ accordingly.

| (1) | Net operating income, a non-GAAP supplemental measure, is defined as total revenue less property operating and maintenance expenses. We use net operating income to evaluate the operating performance of our consolidated real estate investments and to make decisions concerning the operation of the property. We believe that net operating income is useful to investors in understanding the value of our consolidated income-producing real estate. Net income is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to net operating income; however, net operating income should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of operating performance as it excludes certain items such as a gain or loss from investments in unconsolidated entities depreciation and amortization, interest expense and corporate general and administrative expenses. Additionally, net operating income as we define it may not be comparable to net operating income as defined by other REITs or companies. |
Senior Living Operations
Total revenue for senior living operations includes rental revenue and resident fees and service income. Property operating and maintenance expenses include labor, food, utilities, marketing, management and other property operating costs. Net operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased to $4.5 million from $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition and consolidation of the Leah Bay joint venture in August of 2012 , but also reflects higher levels of care at several senior living properties.

Triple-Net Leased Properties
Total revenue for triple-net leased properties includes rental revenue and expense reimbursements from tenants. Property operating and maintenance expenses include insurance and property taxes and other operating expenses reimbursed by our tenants. Net operating income increased to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, due to the acquisition of a controlling interest in the Rome LTACH in April 2012. As a result of this acquisition, Rome LTACH operations are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements and included in the operations of our triple-net leased segment for the three months ended March 31, 2013. In the comparable period of 2012, Rome LTACH was accounted for as an equity method investment and its operating results were not included in our triple-net leased properties segment.

Unallocated (expenses) income
General and administrative expenses decreased to $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease was due to lower professional fees and consulting fees, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012. The costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2012 were the result of the Company’s transition to a new advisor in January 2012. The remaining decrease is due to a $0.1 million tax benefit for the three months ended March 21, 2013, as opposed to a $0.2 million tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012, which results in a $0.3 million difference in general and administrative expenses across periods.
Asset management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased to $0.6 million from $0.5 million as a result of a higher portfolio value in the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Depreciation and amortization for the same periods increased to $2.4 million from $1.4 million, as a result of increases in depreciation of buildings, improvements and tenant improvements and the in-place lease value assigned in the Leah Bay purchase price allocation. In-place lease value is amortized over the expected resident lease term, resulting in a higher than average amortization expense in the first year after the acquisition.
Interest expense, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased to $2.0 million from $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, respectively, principally due to higher debt levels associated with refinanced debt, and the acquisitions of the Rome LTACH and Leah Bay properties, which were completed during the second and third quarters of 2012, respectively.
Income from unconsolidated entities of approximately $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily due to the Physicians Centre MOB, acquired in April 2012 and Littleton Specialty Rehabilitation Center which commenced operations in the second quarter of 2012. First quarter 2012 income from unconsolidated entities related to the operations of the Rome LTACH joint venture, which was accounted for under the equity method of accounting prior to our acquisition of a controlling interest in this property in April 2012.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On April 29, 2011, we informed our stockholders that our Independent Directors Committee had directed us to suspend our public offering of common stock, our dividend reinvestment program and our stock repurchase program (except repurchases due to death) due to their consideration of various strategic alternatives to enhance our stockholders’ value. On February 4, 2013 the initial two-year primary offering period for our follow-on offering concluded. We may decide to offer shares pursuant to our follow-on offering in the future, either in a primary offering or pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan, at which time we would file an amendment to the follow-on offering registration statement. Under no circumstances could the primary offering period for the follow-on offering extend beyond August 3, 2014, however we could continue to offer shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan beyond that date.
On February 10, 2013, we entered into the KKR Equity Commitment for the purpose of obtaining up to $150 million of equity funding to be used to finance future real estate acquisitions. Pursuant to the KKR Equity Commitment, we may issue and sell to the Investor and its affiliates on a private placement basis from time to time over a period of two to three years, up to $150 million in aggregate issuance amount of shares of newly issued Series A Preferred Stock, newly issued Series C Preferred Stock and newly issued Series B Convertible Preferred Units of our Operating Partnership.
We expect that primary sources of capital over the long-term will include net proceeds from the sale of our capital stock, the sale of preferred units of partnership interest in our Operating Partnership in accordance with the terms of the KKR Equity Commitment, debt financing, and net cash flows from operations. We expect that our primary uses of capital will be for property acquisitions, including promote monetization payments, for the payment of tenant improvements and capital improvements and operating expenses, including interest expense on any outstanding indebtedness, reducing outstanding indebtedness and for the payment of distributions.
We intend to own our stabilized properties with low to moderate levels of debt financing. We will incur moderate to high levels of indebtedness when acquiring development or value-added properties and possibly other real estate investments. For our stabilized core plus properties, our long-term goal will be to use low to moderate levels of debt financing with leverage ranging from 50% to 65% of the value of the asset. For development and value-added properties, our goal will be to acquire and develop or redevelop these properties using moderate to high levels of debt financing with leverage ranging from 65% to 75% of the cost of the asset. Once these properties are developed, redeveloped and stabilized with tenants, we plan to reduce the levels of debt to fall within target debt ranges appropriate for core plus properties. While we seek to fall within the outlined targets on a portfolio basis, for any specific property we may exceed these estimates. To the extent sufficient proceeds from public offerings, debt financing, the KKR Equity Commitment or a combination of these are unavailable to repay acquisition debt financing down to the target ranges within a reasonable time as determined by our board of directors, we will endeavor to raise additional equity or sell properties to repay such debt so that we will own our properties with low to moderate levels of permanent financing. In the event that we are unable to raise additional equity, our ability to diversify our investments may be diminished.
As of March 31, 2013, we had approximately $18.5 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand. Our liquidity will increase if additional subscriptions for shares are accepted in our follow-on public offering and if refinancing results in excess loan proceeds and decrease as net offering proceeds are expended in connection with the acquisition, operation of properties and distributions made in excess of cash available from operating cash flows.
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $2.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively. The increase in cash flows from operations was primarily due to operating income from the Leah Bay portfolio acquired in the third quarter of 2012. This increase was partially offset by the timing of cash receipts and payments.
Cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $128,000 and $48,000, respectively, comprised of capital expenditures related to existing properties.
Cash flow used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $5.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company paid $2.8 million of the fees and expenses in connection with the KKR Equity Commitment. In addition, the Company’s distribution payment for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $1.5 million and $814,000, respectively, due to an increase in the Company’s distribution rate to 4.75% from 2.5% effective October 1, 2012.
We expect to have sufficient cash available from cash on hand and operations to fund capital improvements and principal payments due on our borrowings in the next twelve months. We expect to fund stockholder distributions from cash on hand and from the excess of cash provided by operations over required capital improvements and debt payments. This excess may be insufficient to make distributions at the current level or at all.
There may be a delay between the sale of our shares or equity securities and the purchase of properties. During this period, proceeds from sales of securities may be temporarily invested in short-term, liquid investments that could yield lower returns than investments in real estate.
Potential future sources of capital include proceeds from future equity offerings, proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of properties and undistributed funds from operations.
Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We compute FFO in accordance with the definition outlined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) , and gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, noncontrolling interests and subsidiaries. Our FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. We believe that FFO is helpful to investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, and extraordinary items, and as a result, when compared year to year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which is not immediately apparent from net income. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. As a result, our management believes that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance. Factors that impact FFO include start-up costs, fixed costs, delay in buying assets, lower yields on cash held in accounts pending investment, income from portfolio properties and other portfolio assets, interest rates on acquisition financing and operating expenses. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), as an indication of our performance, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions, as well as dividend sustainability.
Changes in the accounting and reporting rules under GAAP have prompted a significant increase in the amount of non-cash and non-operating items included in FFO, as defined. Therefore, we use modified funds from operations (“MFFO”), which excludes from FFO real estate acquisition expenses, and non-cash amounts related to straight line rent to further evaluate our operating performance as well as dividend sustainability. We compute MFFO consistently with the definition suggested by the Investment Program Association (the “IPA”), the trade association for direct investment programs (including non-listed REITs). However, certain adjustments included in the IPA’s definition are not applicable to us and are therefore not included in the foregoing definition.
We believe that MFFO is a helpful measure of operating performance because it excludes costs that management considers more reflective of investing activities or non-operating changes. Accordingly, we believe that MFFO can be a useful metric to assist management, investors and analysts in assessing the sustainability of our operating performance. As explained below, management’s evaluation of our operating performance excludes the items considered in the calculation based on the following considerations:
| · | Adjustments for straight line rents. Under GAAP, rental income recognition can be significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the economic impact of our lease terms and presents results in a manner more consistent with management’s analysis of our operating performance. |
| · | Real estate acquisition costs. In evaluating investments in real estate, including both business combinations and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, management’s investment models and analysis differentiate costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. These acquisition costs have been funded from the proceeds of our initial public offering and other financing sources and not from operations. We believe by excluding expensed acquisition costs, MFFO provides useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of our real estate investments and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Real estate acquisition expenses include those paid to our advisor and to third parties. |
| · | Non-recurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt. |
| · | Unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to equity accounting. |
FFO or MFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) nor as an indication of our liquidity. Nor is either indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. Both FFO and MFFO should be reviewed along with other GAAP measurements. Our FFO and MFFO as presented may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs. In addition, FFO and MFFO presented for different periods may not be directly comparable.
We believe that MFFO is helpful as a measure of operating performance because it excludes costs that management considers more reflective of investing activities or non-operating changes.

Distributions
Through June 30, 2011, we made cash distributions to our stockholders at an annualized rate of 7.5%, based on a $10.00 per-share purchase price. Effective July 1, 2011, our board of directors resolved to lower our distributions to an annualized rate of $0.25 per share (2.5% based on a share price of $10.00) to more closely align distributions to funds available from operations at that date. Effective October 1, 2012, our board of directors declared distributions that, if declared and paid each day for a 365-day period, would equate to an annualized rate of $.475 per share (4.75% based on share price of $10.00), and effective April 1, 2013, our board of directors declared distributions that, if declared and paid each day for a 365-day period, would equate to an annualized rate of $.50 per share (5.00% based on share price of $10.00). The rate and frequency of distributions is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and may change from time to time based on our operating results and cash flow.
Historically, we have used a portion of the proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures on our real estate investments, tenant improvement costs and leasing costs related to our investments in real estate properties; reserves required by financings of our investments in real estate properties; and the repayment of debt. Because our distribution reinvestment plan was suspended on May 10, 2011, we no longer have distribution reinvestment plan proceeds available for such general corporate purposes. Because such funds are not available from the distribution reinvestment plan offering, we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet our general cash requirements, which would reduce cash available for distributions.
| | Distributions Declared | | | Cash Flow | |
Period | | Cash | | | Reinvested | | | Total | | | from Operations | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
First quarter 2012 | | $ | 801,000 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 801,000 | | | $ | 1,277,000 | |
First quarter 2013 | | | 1,493,000 | | | | — | | | | 1,493,000 | | | | 2,643,000 | |
For the three months ended March 31, 2013, we paid aggregate distributions of approximately $1.5 million, all of which were paid in cash. FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was approximately $3.1 million and cash flow from operations was approximately $2.6 million. We funded our total distributions paid with cash flows from operations. For the purposes of determining the source of our distributions paid, we assume first that we use cash flows from operations from the relevant periods to fund distribution payments. See the reconciliation of FFO to net income above.
| Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. We invest our cash and cash equivalents in government-backed securities and FDIC-insured savings accounts, which, by their nature, are subject to interest rate fluctuations. However, we believe that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk relating the variable portion of our debt financing. As of March 31, 2013, we had approximately $31.0 million of variable rate debt, the majority of which is at a rate tied to the 3-month LIBOR. A 1.0% change in 3-Month LIBOR would result in a change in annual interest expense of approximately $0.3 million per year. Our interest rate risk management objectives will be to monitor and manage the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows by using certain derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on variable rate debt. We will not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.
In addition to changes in interest rates, the fair value of our real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in the real estate capital markets, market rental rates for healthcare facilities, local, regional and national economic conditions and changes in the credit worthiness of tenants. All of these factors may also affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.
| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our senior management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
