Mr. Pickett concluded, "Overall, the backdrop continues to be favorable. Operating metrics remain strong, with both occupancy and coverage modestly improving in the quarter. The pipeline remains very active, and we have a cost of capital that should allow us to continue to accretively invest."

As previously disclosed, LaVie filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in June 2024.

2025 AFFO GUIDANCE INCREASED

The Company increased its expected 2025 Adjusted FFO range to be between $2.95 to $3.01 per diluted share from the previous range of $2.90 to $2.98 per diluted share. The Company's revised Adjusted FFO guidance for 2025 includes Q1 2025 actuals and the impact of $423 million in new investments completed through April 2025 and assumes quarterly G&A expense of approximately $12 million to $14 million, repayment of a $50 million term loan in April, repayment of a $238 million secured mortgage loan in November 2025, balance sheet cash of approximately $600M at December 31, 2025, no material changes in market interest rates, that no additional operators are placed on a cash-basis for revenue recognition and Genesis continues to pay its full contractual obligations. The Company holds $247 million mortgages and other real estate-backed investments that are set to mature in 2025. The revised guidance assumes that $84 million of these investments will be converted from loans to fee simple real estate, $68 million will be repaid by the end of 2025, and the remaining balance will be extended beyond 2025. The revised guidance also assumes the $344 million in new investments completed in April are funded with equity issuances. The guidance excludes any additional acquisitions and asset sales, certain revenue and expense items, interest refinancing expenses, acquisition costs, capital market activity and additional provisions for credit losses, if any.

The Company’s guidance is based on several assumptions including those noted above, which are subject to change and many of which are outside the Company’s control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company's expectations may change. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the timing of collection of rental obligations from operators on a cash basis, the timing and completion of acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings and capital and financing transactions may cause actual results to vary materially from our current expectations. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its projected results. The Company may, from time to time, update its publicly announced Adjusted FFO guidance, but it is not obligated to do so.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation for its Adjusted FFO guidance to GAAP net income because it is unable to determine meaningful or accurate estimates of reconciling items without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amounts of various items that would impact future net income. This includes, but is not limited to, changes in the provision for credit losses, real estate impairments, acquisition, merger and transition related costs, straight-line write-offs, gain/loss on assets sold, etc. In particular, the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount of change in the provision for credit losses in future periods, which is often a significant reconciling adjustment.

Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on those statements. All forward-looking statements are based upon information available to us on the date of this release. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.

Nareit Funds From Operations ("Nareit FFO"), Adjusted FFO and Funds Available for Distribution ("FAD") are non-GAAP financial measures. As used in this press release, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The Company calculates and reports Nareit FFO in accordance with the definition and interpretive guidelines issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit"), and consequently, Nareit FFO is defined as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for the effects of asset dispositions and certain non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization and impairments on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and changes in the fair value of warrants. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. Revenue recognized based on the application of security deposits and letters of credit or based on the ability to offset against other financial instruments is included within Nareit FFO. The Company believes that Nareit FFO, Adjusted FFO and FAD are important supplemental measures of its operating performance. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The term funds from operations was designed by the real estate industry to address this issue. Funds from operations described herein is not necessarily comparable to funds from operations of other real estate investment trusts, or REITs, that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from the Company.

Adjusted FFO is calculated as Nareit FFO excluding the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation and certain revenue and expense items (e.g., acquisition, merger and transition related costs, straight-line rent and other write-offs, recoveries and provisions for credit losses (excluding certain cash recoveries on impaired loans), severance expense and other normalizing items). FAD is calculated as Adjusted FFO less non-cash expense, such as the amortization of deferred financing costs, and non-cash revenue, such as straight-line rent. FAD includes the non-cash amortization of premiums associated with the fair value of debt assumed in acquisitions. The Company believes these measures provide an enhanced measure of the operating performance of the Company’s core portfolio as a REIT. The Company’s computation of Adjusted FFO and FAD may not be comparable to the Nareit definition of funds from operations or to similar measures reported by other REITs, but the Company believes that they are appropriate measures for this Company.

The Company uses these non-GAAP measures among the criteria to measure the operating performance of its business. The Company also uses FAD among the performance metrics for performance-based compensation of officers. The Company further believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairments on real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, funds from operations can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods. The Company offers these measures to assist the users of its financial statements in analyzing its operating performance. These non-GAAP measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as measures of liquidity or cash flow, alternatives to net income or indicators of any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in the Company’s securities should not rely on these non-GAAP measures as substitutes for any GAAP measure, including net income.
