First quarter 2022 results were impacted by the following:

  • Lower rental income due to the following:
    • the Senior Care Centers, LLC (“Senior Care”) and Senior Care’s parent company, Abri Health Services, LLC portfolio transition;
    • abated and deferred rent;
    • the sale of a skilled nursing center in Washington; and
    • a lease incentive balance write-off related to a terminated lease;
  • The decrease in rental income was partially offset by the following:
    • increases from properties transitioned from Senior Lifestyle Corporation (“Senior Lifestyle”);
    • increases in property tax revenue from properties formerly leased to Senior Lifestyle;
    • rental income from completed development projects and annual rent escalations; and
    • the following prior year non-recurring items:
      • a straight-line rent receivable write-off; and
      • the one-time 50% reduction of 2021 rent escalations provided to the majority of LTC’s operating partners;
  • Higher interest income from mortgage loans due to mortgage loan originations in 2021;
  • Higher interest and other income due to a mezzanine loan origination and additional funding under working capital loans partially offset by loan payoffs;
  • Higher provision for credit losses due to a mezzanine loan origination and additional funding under working capital loans; and
  • Higher general and administrative expenses due to higher incentive compensation as well as higher non-cash compensation charges and increases in overall costs due to inflationary pressures.

During the first quarter of 2022, LTC completed the following:

  • Originated a $25 million mezzanine loan for the recapitalization of a five-property seniors housing portfolio. The mezzanine loan has a term of approximately five years, with two one-year extension options. It bears interest at 8%, with an IRR of 11%. The five communities are located in Oregon and Montana, have a total of 621 units, and include independent living, assisted‑living and memory care. The communities are being managed by The Springs Living, LLC, an operator new to LTC;
  • Transitioned two memory care communities totaling 88 units in Texas to an existing LTC operator. The new master lease has a two-year term. Cash rent will start in month five, based on mutually agreed fair market rent. LTC recognized $282,000 of rent from these transitioned communities during the first quarter of 2022 and anticipates recognizing approximately $370,000 of rent from these transitioned communities during the second half of 2022;
  • Funded $9.5 million under a working capital loan for HMG Healthcare, LLC (“HMG Healthcare”) and HMG Healthcare repaid $799,000. The current outstanding balance under the working capital loan is $18.6 million, with a remaining availability of up to $6.4 million;
  • An operator of two assisted living communities in California with a total of 232 units exercised the purchase option under their lease for $43.7 million. The communities have a gross book value of $31.8 million and a net book value of $16.8 million. LTC anticipates recognizing a gain on sale of approximately $26.0 million in the second quarter of 2022;
  • Entered into an agreement with a third party to sell a 121-bed skilled nursing center in California for $13.3 million. The property has a gross book value of $4.6 million and a net book value of $1.8 million. LTC anticipates recognizing a gain on sale of approximately $10.5 million in the second quarter of 2022;
  • Borrowed $47.0 million under the Company’s revolving line of credit;
  • Paid $7.0 million in scheduled principal paydowns under LTC’s senior unsecured notes; and
  • Provided $1.3 million of deferred rent and $720,000 of abated rent.

Subsequent to March 31, 2022, LTC completed the following:

  • Acquired four newer transitional care centers for $51.5 million, located in Texas and have a combined total of 339 beds primarily in private rooms. These centers will be operated by Ignite Medical Resorts (“Ignite”), a current LTC operating partner. The lease term is 10 years, with two 5‑year renewal options, and contains a purchase option beginning in the sixth lease year through the end of the seventh lease year. The Company expects to receive rent of approximately $1.0 million in each of the third and fourth quarters of 2022 and approximately $4.3 million during 2023. Rent will increase annually beginning on the third anniversary of the lease by 2.0% to 4.0% based on the change in the Medicare Market Basket Rate. Additionally, LTC provided Ignite a 10-year working capital loan for up to $2.0 million, of which $1.9 million has been funded, at 8% for first year, increasing to 8.25% for the second year, then increasing annually with the lease rate. The Company initially funded this acquisition using its unsecured revolving line of credit and intends to use proceeds from previously announced asset sales, anticipated to close in the second quarter of 2022, to pay down its unsecured revolving line of credit;
  • Sold a 74-unit assisted living community in Virginia for $16.9 million. The community has a gross book value of $16.9 million and a net book value of $15.5 million. LTC anticipates recognizing a gain on sale of approximately $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. In connection with the sale, the current operator paid LTC a $1.2 million lease termination fee. The proceeds from this sale were used to paydown LTC’s unsecured revolving line of credit;
  • Borrowed a net of $34.0 million under its unsecured revolving line of credit;
  • Provided $376,000 of deferred rent and $240,000 of abated rent in April 2022. LTC has agreed to provide rent abatements up to $240,000 for each of May and June of 2022; and
  • Reduced the estimated second quarter 2022 rent of $2.7 million from Anthem Memory Care (“Anthem”) to $2.1 million as Anthem is addressing some new challenges that may make it difficult for them to pay the full 2022 second quarter rent. However, LTC anticipates receiving total cash rent from Anthem in 2022 of approximately $10.8 million as LTC believes occupancy at the properties under Anthem’s master lease will recover and Anthem is expecting receipt of additional stimulus funds. Anthem has paid their agreed upon rent through April 2022.

Supplemental Reporting Measures

FFO and FAD are supplemental measures of a real estate investment trust’s (“REIT”) financial performance that are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Investors, analysts and the Company use FFO and FAD as supplemental measures of operating performance. The Company believes FFO and FAD are helpful in evaluating the operating performance of a REIT. Real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, but cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. We believe that by excluding the effect of historical cost depreciation, which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO and FAD facilitate like comparisons of operating performance between periods. Occasionally, the Company may exclude non-recurring items from FFO and FAD in order to allow investors, analysts and our management to compare the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis without having to account for differences caused by unanticipated items.

FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), means net income available to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on the sale of real estate and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company’s computation of 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 have a different interpretation of the current NAREIT definition from that of the Company; therefore, caution should be exercised when comparing our Company’s FFO to that of other REITs.

We define FAD as FFO excluding the effects of straight-line rent, amortization of lease inducement, effective interest income, deferred income from unconsolidated joint ventures, non-cash compensation charges, capitalized interest and non-cash interest charges. GAAP requires rental revenues related to non-contingent leases that contain specified rental increases over the life of the lease to be recognized evenly over the life of the lease. This method results in rental income in the early years of a lease that is higher than actual cash received, creating a straight-line rent receivable asset included in our consolidated balance sheet. At some point during the lease, depending on its terms, cash rent payments exceed the straight-line rent which results in the straight-line rent receivable asset decreasing to zero over the remainder of the lease term. Effective interest method, as required by GAAP, is a technique for calculating the actual interest rate for the term of a mortgage loan based on the initial origination value. Similar to the accounting methodology of straight-line rent, the actual interest rate is higher than the stated interest rate in the early years of the mortgage loan thus creating an effective interest receivable asset included in the interest receivable line item in our consolidated balance sheet and reduces down to zero when, at some point during the mortgage loan, the stated interest rate is higher than the actual interest rate. FAD is useful in analyzing the portion of cash flow that is available for distribution to stockholders. Investors, analysts and the Company utilize FAD as an indicator of common dividend potential. The FAD payout ratio, which represents annual distributions to common shareholders expressed as a percentage of FAD, facilitates the comparison of dividend coverage between REITs.

While the Company uses FFO and FAD as supplemental performance measures of our cash flow generated by operations and cash available for distribution to stockholders, such measures are not representative of cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to net income available to common stockholders.
