Real Estate Investments | 2. Real Estate Investments Assisted living communities, independent living communities, memory care communities and combinations thereof are included in the assisted living property classification (collectively “ALF”). Any reference to the number of properties or facilities, number of units, number of beds, number of operators and yield on investments in real estate are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

Many of our existing leases contain renewal options that, if exercised, could result in the amount of rent payable upon renewal being greater or less than that currently being paid. During 2023, Brookdale Senior Living Communities, Inc. (“Brookdale”) elected not to exercise its renewal option under a master lease that matured on December 31, 2023.

The new master lease includes a purchase option that can be exercised starting in November 2027 through October 2029 if the lessee exercises its four-year extension option. Rent increases to $984 in the second year, and $1,150 in the third year. (2) These communities were re-leased to Brookdale under a new master lease. Rent escalates by approximately 2.0% annually. The new master lease includes a purchase option that can be exercised in 2029. We also agreed to fund $7,200 for capital expenditures for the first two years of the lease at an initial rate of 8.0% escalating by approximately 2.0% annually thereafter. (3) These communities were transitioned to an operator new to us. Rent escalates by approximately 3.0% annually. (4) Net of transaction costs and seller financing, if any. (5) We provided seller financing collateralized by two of the Florida properties, with a total of 92 units. The $4,000 seller-financed mortgage loan has a two-year term, with a one-year extension, at an interest rate of 8.75% . During the three months ended March 31, 2024, a master lease covering 11 skilled nursing centers, that was scheduled to mature in January 2024, was renewed for seven months extending the maturity to August 2024. The master lease was renewed at the current annualized rent of $8,000,000, or $4,667,000 for seven months in 2024. The centers have a total of 1,444 beds and are located in Texas. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we executed a term sheet with the operator, to amend the master lease extending the term through December 2028. Annual rent will increase by $1,000,000 to $9,000,000 for 2024. Rent will increase to $9,500,000 for 2025, and $10,000,000 for 2026, escalating 3.3% annually thereafter. The amended master lease provides the operator with two five-year renewal options. As a condition of the amendment, the operator will repay $11,900,000 on its $13,531,000 working capital note during the second quarter of 2024. Upon the repayment, the remaining balance of the working capital note will be interest-free and repaid in installments through 2028. Additionally, subsequent to March 31, 2024, another operator exercised its renewal option under its master lease for five years, from March 2025 through February 2030. Annual cash and GAAP rent for 2024 are $8,004,000 and $7,049,000, respectively escalating 2.5% annually. The master lease covers 666 beds across four skilled nursing centers, three in Texas and one in Wisconsin, and a behavioral health care hospital in Nevada. We monitor the collectability of our receivable balances, including deferred rent receivable balances, on an ongoing basis. We write-off uncollectible operator receivable balances, including straight- line rent receivable and lease incentives balances, as a reduction to rental income in the period such balances are no longer probable of being collected. Therefore, recognition of rental income is limited to the lesser of the amount of cash collected or rental income reflected on a “straight-line” basis for those customer receivable balances deemed uncollectible. We wrote-off straight-line rent receivable and lease incentives balances of $191,000 and $144,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as a result of property sales and lease terminations. We continue to take into account the current financial condition of our operators, including consideration of the impact of COVID-19, in our estimation of uncollectible accounts at March 31, 2024. We are closely monitoring the collectability of such rents and will adjust future estimations as appropriate as further information becomes known. The following table summarizes components of our rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands): Three Months Ended March 31, Rental Income 2024 2023 Contractual cash rental income $ 30,951 (1) $ 29,125 (1) Variable cash rental income 3,381 (2) 3,284 (2) Straight-line rent (550) (465) Amortization of lease incentives (233) (209) Total $ 33,549 $ 31,735 (1) Increased primarily due to $2,377 repayment of rent credit in connection with the sale of our interest in a consolidated joint venture (“JV), rental income from 2023 acquisitions and annual rent escalations, partially offset by property sales and transitioned portfolios. (2) The variable rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023 includes reimbursement of real estate taxes by our lessees. Some of our lease agreements provide purchase options allowing the lessees to purchase the properties they currently lease from us.

(3) During 2023, we entered into a JV that purchased 11 ALFs and MCs with a total of 523 units and leased the communities under a 10-year master lease. The master lease provides the operator with the option to buy up to 50% of the properties at the beginning of the third lease year, and the remaining properties at the beginning of the fourth lease year through the end of the sixth lease year, with an exit IRR of 9.0% on any portion of the properties being purchased. For more information regarding this transaction see Financing Receivables below. (4) During 2023, we transferred five ALFs with a total of 210 units from Brookdale to an operator new to us.

(5) During 2023, we transferred five ALFs in Oklahoma with a total of 184 units from Brookdale to an existing operator.

See above for more information. (6) During 2022, we purchased four skilled nursing centers and leased these properties under a 10-year lease with an existing operator. The lease allows the operator to elect either an earn-out payment or purchase option. If neither option is elected within the timeframe defined in the lease, both elections are terminated.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we acquired a parcel of land in Kansas adjacent to an existing community operated by Brookdale for a total cost of $315,000 . Rent was increased by 8% of our total cost of the investment. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we did not have any acquisitions. Intangible Assets. We make estimates as part of our allocation of the purchase price of acquisitions to various components of acquisition based upon the fair value of each component. In determining fair value, we use current appraisals or other third-party opinions of value. The most significant components of our allocations are typically the allocation of fair value to land and buildings, and for certain of our acquisitions, in-place leases and other intangible assets. In the case of the value of in-place leases, we make the best estimates based on the evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors considered include estimates of carrying costs during the hypothetical expected lease-up periods, market conditions and costs to execute similar leases.
