Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Organization
General. AlerisLife Inc., collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries, the Company, we, us or our, is a holding company incorporated in Maryland. Substantially all of our business is conducted by our two segments: (i) our residential segment through our Five Star Senior Living, or Five Star, brand and (ii) our lifestyle services segment primarily through our Ageility Physical Therapy Solutions and Ageility Fitness, or collectively Ageility, brands, as well as Windsong Home Health. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and the U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations related to interim financial statements. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
As of September 30, 2022, through our residential segment, we owned and operated or managed, 140 senior living communities located in 28 states with 19,973 living units, including 10,422 independent living apartments and 9,551 assisted living suites, which includes 1,817 Bridge to Rediscovery memory care units. We managed 120 of these senior living communities (17,889 living units) for Diversified Healthcare Trust, or DHC, and owned 20 of these senior living communities (2,084 living units). The foregoing numbers exclude living units categorized as out of service.
Our lifestyle services segment provides a comprehensive suite of lifestyle services including Ageility rehabilitation and fitness, Windsong Home Health and other home based, concierge services at senior living communities we own and operate or manage as well as at unaffiliated senior living communities. As of September 30, 2022, Ageility operated eight inpatient rehabilitation clinics in senior living communities owned by DHC that are not operated by Five Star. As of September 30, 2022, Ageility operated 203 outpatient rehabilitation locations, of which 109 were located at Five Star operated senior living communities and 94 were located within senior living communities not operated by Five Star.
The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, or Annual Report. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Estimates and Assumptions. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. Significant estimates in our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to revenue recognition, including contractual allowances and implicit price concessions, recoverability of long-lived assets, self-insurance reserves and estimates concerning our provision for income taxes or valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets.
Our actual results could differ from our estimates. We periodically review estimates and assumptions, and we reflect the effects of changes, if any, in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the period that they are determined.
There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report. See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part IV, Item 15 of our Annual Report.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted. In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires a financial asset or a group of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This ASU eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold and instead requires reflection of an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the transition and effective date for nonpublic entities and smaller reporting companies, such as us, and clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not in the scope of this ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial

(unaudited)
Instruments-Credit Losses, which clarifies guidance around how to report expected recoveries. Entities will apply the provisions of the ASU as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. This ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies, like us, for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, which clarifies that a contractual sale restriction prohibiting the sale of an equity security is a characteristic of the reporting entity holding the equity security and is not included in the equity security's unit of account. Accordingly, an entity should not consider the contractual sale restriction when measuring the equity security’s fair value. In addition, the ASU prohibits an entity from recognizing a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other operating income. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, was signed into law. Under the CARES Act, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS, established the Provider Relief Fund. The Provider Relief Fund was further supplemented on December 27, 2020 by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021. Retention and use of the funds received under the CARES Act are subject to certain terms and conditions, including certain reporting requirements. Other operating income includes income recognized for funds we have received pursuant to the Provider Relief Fund of the CARES Act for which we have determined that we were in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Provider Relief Fund of the CARES Act and other government grants. We recognize other operating income in our condensed consolidated statements of operations to the extent we estimate we have COVID-19 incurred losses or related costs for which provisions of the CARES Act is intended to compensate. The amount of income we recognize for these estimated losses and costs is limited to the amount of funds we received during the period in which the estimated losses and costs were recognized or incurred or, if funds were received subsequently, the period in which the funds were received. We received and recognized other operating income of $2 related to state programs for the three months ended September 30, 2022. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, no other operating income was received or recognized. We received and recognized other operating income of $44 and $7,795 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, other operating income related to state programs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, $7,724 related to Phase 3 distributions and $71 related to state programs.
4. Segment Information
We do not allocate assets to operating segments and, therefore, no asset information is provided for reportable segments. Certain of our general and administrative expenses incurred at our corporate office are deemed centralized services and allocated amongst operating segments. Centralized services are largely determined by job function and allocated by percentage of each community's and clinic's gross revenues. Results of operations and selected financial information by reportable segment and the reconciliation to the condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

On September 30, 2021, we terminated our lease for the four communities that we leased from Healthpeak Properties, Inc., or PEAK. Under the terms of the termination agreements, we recorded a loss on lease termination of $3,277. Included in the calculation of the loss on lease termination was the derecognition of $1,173 of all property and equipment at the four previously leased communities. The loss was the aggregate of the lease termination fee of $3,100, other obligations of $548, legal transaction costs of $37, the net derecognition carrying amounts of our right of use asset of $16,055, and leasehold improvements and other fixed assets of $1,173, partially offset by the remaining lease obligations of $17,636.
On April 4, 2021, a fire at one of the four senior living communities that we previously leased from PEAK caused extensive damage to the community. As a result, we recorded an impairment on certain furniture, fixtures and building improvements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 of $890, which is recorded in other residential expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Insurance proceeds received for property damages to the previously leased community caused by the fire of $1,500 were subsequently transferred to PEAK.
We recorded depreciation expense relating to our property and equipment of $2,849 and $2,692 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $8,291 and $8,082 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
6. Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income
Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income of ($33) and $1,029 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, represents the unrealized gains and losses of our debt investments, net of tax. The cost of debt investments sold and for which realized gains and losses are reclassified and included in net loss are determined on a specific identification basis.

7. Income Taxes
We recognized a provision for income taxes of $31 and $99 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and a benefit for income taxes of $164 and provision for income taxes of $194 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The provision and benefit for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is related to state income taxes.
We previously determined it was more likely than not that as a result of our recurring net operating losses and forecasted net operating losses a majority of our net deferred tax assets would not be realized and concluded that a valuation allowance was required, which eliminated the majority of our net deferred tax assets recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the future, if we believe that we will more likely than not realize the benefit of these deferred tax assets, we will adjust our valuation allowance and recognize an income tax benefit, which may affect our results of operations.
8. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. When applicable, net income (loss) per share—diluted reflects the more dilutive earnings per share using the weighted average number of our common shares calculated using the two-class method, or the treasury stock method.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands):

2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||||

_______________________________________
(1) For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, 1,433 and 157 of our unvested common shares were not included in the calculation of net loss per share—diluted because to do so would have been anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, 1,218 and 146, respectively, of our unvested common shares were not included in the calculation of the net loss per share—diluted because to do so would have been antidilutive.

(1) Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments and money market funds held primarily for obligations arising from our self-insurance programs. Cash equivalents are reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as cash and cash equivalents and current and long-term restricted cash and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include $19,766 and $23,546 of balances that were restricted at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. In addition to the cash equivalents of $36,548 and $26,417 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, reflected above, there were cash balances of $62,344 and $64,116 and restricted cash balances of $2,542 and $2,406 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
(2) The fair value of our equity investments is readily determinable. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we received gross proceeds of $6,804 and $741, respectively, in connection with the sales of equity investments and recorded gross realized gains totaling $1,646 and $175, respectively, and gross realized losses totaling $114 and $0, respectively.
(3) As of September 30, 2022, our debt investments, which are classified as available for sale, had a fair value of $7,668 with an amortized cost of $8,438; the difference between the fair value and amortized cost amounts resulted from net unrealized losses of $770, inclusive of unrealized gains of $2. As of December 31, 2021, our debt investments had a fair value of $10,375 with an amortized cost of $10,079; the difference between the fair value and amortized cost amounts resulted from net unrealized gains of $296, inclusive of unrealized losses of $10. Debt investments include $6,055 and $6,907 of balances that were restricted as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. At September 30, 2022, 87 debt investments we held, with a fair value of $6,925, had been in a loss position for less than 12 months and one of the debt investments we held, with a fair value of $45, had been in a loss position for greater than 12 months. We do not believe these investments are impaired primarily because they have not been in a loss position for an extended period of time, the financial conditions of the issuers of these investments remain strong with solid fundamentals as of September 30, 2022, we do not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery, and other factors that support our conclusion that the loss is temporary. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we received gross proceeds of $1,020 and $1,294, respectively, in connection with the sales of debt investments and recorded gross realized losses of $5 and $0, respectively, and gross realized gains of $1 and $18, respectively. We record gains and losses on the sales of these investments using the specific identification method.
The amortized cost basis and fair value of available for sale debt securities at September 30, 2022, by contractual maturity, are shown below:
Amortized Cost | Fair Value | |||||||||||||

Our financial assets (which include cash equivalents and investments) have been valued at the transaction price and subsequently valued, at the end of each reporting period, utilizing third-party pricing services or other market observable data. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we did not change the type of inputs used to determine the fair value of any of our assets and liabilities that we measure at fair value.
The carrying value of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The carrying value and fair value of our debt was $67,598 and $57,463, respectively, as of September 30, 2022 and $6,783 and $7,689, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. These are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We estimate the fair value of our debt by using discounted cash flow analyses and currently prevailing market terms as of the measurement date.
Non-Recurring Fair Value Measures
We review the carrying value of our long-lived assets, including our right-of-use assets and property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not

be recoverable. On April 4, 2021, a fire at one of the four senior living communities that we previously leased from PEAK caused extensive damage to the community. As a result, we deemed the recorded furniture, fixtures and equipment and building improvements at the community had no net recoverable value. We recorded an impairment equal to their carrying value for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 of $890, which is recorded in other residential expenses in the statement of operations. See Note 5 for more information regarding fair value measurements related to impairments of our long-lived assets.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no non-recurring fair value adjustments related to long-lived assets.
10. Indebtedness
On January 27, 2022, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a credit and security agreement, or the Credit Agreement, with MidCap Funding VIII Trust as administrative agent and a lender, or MidCap. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we entered into a $95,000 senior secured term loan, or the Loan, $63,000 of which was funded upon effectiveness of the Credit Agreement, including approximately $3,200 in closing costs. The remaining proceeds include $12,000 for capital improvements at senior living communities we own and an opportunity for another $20,000 that is available to us upon achieving certain financial targets. Certain of our subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement and we and one of our subsidiaries provided a payment guarantee of up to $40,000 of the obligations under the Credit Agreement as well as non-recourse carve-outs. The guaranty is evidenced by a Guaranty and Security Agreement, or the Guaranty Agreement, made by us and one of our subsidiaries in favor of MidCap. Pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement, our subsidiary granted MidCap a security interest on all of the assets of the subsidiary. The Guaranty Agreement requires us and our subsidiary to comply with various covenants, including restricting our ability to make distributions to shareholders. The Loan is secured by real estate mortgages on 14 senior living communities owned by us, our assets and certain related collateral. The maturity date of the Loan is January 27, 2025. Subject to the payment of an extension fee of 35 basis points and meeting certain other conditions, we may elect to extend the stated maturity date of the Loan for two one year periods. We are required to pay interest on outstanding amounts at an annual base rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, plus a term SOFR adjustment of 11 basis points (subject to a minimum base rate of 50 basis points) plus 450 basis points. The Credit Agreement requires interest only payments for the first two years and requires mandatory prepayment of the Loan on account of certain events of default. Voluntary prepayments made within 18 months of the effective date of the Loan will be subject to a prepayment fee equal to the greater of the present value of remaining interest payments relating to the principal amount being repaid or 0.50% of the outstanding balance of the Loan as of the date of prepayment. The Loan may thereafter be voluntarily prepaid without premium or penalty. We will be required to pay an exit fee between 1.0% and 1.5%, subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, upon any prepayment of the Loan, which would be in addition to any prepayment fees that may be payable. The Loan provides for acceleration of payment of all amounts outstanding upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, including a change of control of us, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The default rate of interest is 5.0% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise payable under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also contains a number of financial and other covenants including covenants that restrict a borrower's ability to incur indebtedness or to pay or make distributions under certain circumstances and requires us to maintain a debt yield percentage ranging from 3.0% to 7.5% beginning March 31, 2023 and a debt service coverage ratio ranging from 1.15:1.00 to 1.25:1.00 beginning September 30, 2023. The Credit Agreement also contains certain representations and warranties and reporting obligations. The annual interest rate on the Loan as of September 30, 2022 was 7.7%. We incurred aggregate interest expense related to our Loan of $1,288 and $3,067 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
The Loan replaced our $65,000 secured revolving credit facility, the Credit Facility, which was governed by a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders, and was scheduled to expire on June 12, 2022, before it was terminated on January 27, 2022. No borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Facility at the time we entered into the Credit Agreement. We were required to pay a quarterly commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the unused portion of the available capacity under our Credit Facility. We also had a letter of credit issued under the Credit Facility which was terminated when we replaced the Credit Facility with the Loan. We incurred aggregate interest expense related to our Credit Facility of $0 and $108 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $28 and $566 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
At September 30, 2022, one of our senior living communities was encumbered by a mortgage note. This mortgage note contains standard mortgage covenants. We recorded a discount in connection with the assumption of this mortgage note as part of our acquisition of the senior living community secured by this mortgage in order to record this mortgage note at its then estimated fair value. We amortize this discount as an increase in interest expense until the maturity of this mortgage note. This

This letter of credit expires in June 2023 and is automatically extended for one-year terms unless notice of nonrenewal is provided prior to the end of the applicable term.

11. Management Agreements with DHC
We manage for DHC most of the senior living communities that we operate.
2021 Amendments to our Management Arrangements with DHC. As part of the implementation of the repositioning of our residential management business, on June 9, 2021, we and DHC entered into an amended and restated master management agreement, or the Master Management Agreement, for the senior living communities that we manage for DHC and interim management agreements for the senior living communities that we and DHC agreed to transition to new operators. These agreements replaced our prior management and omnibus agreements with DHC. In addition, we delivered to DHC a related amended and restated guaranty agreement pursuant to which we will continue to guarantee the payment and performance of each of our applicable subsidiary's obligations under the applicable management agreements. The principal changes to the management arrangements included:
15
AlerisLife Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
•We agreed to cooperate with DHC to transition the operations for 107 senior living communities owned by DHC with approximately 7,400 living units that we then managed to other third party managers and to close one senior living community with approximately 100 living units, without payment of any termination fee to us;
•DHC no longer has the right to sell up to an additional $682,000 of senior living communities managed by us and terminate our management of those senior living communities without payment of a termination fee to us upon sale;
•DHC's ability to terminate the management agreement was revised: (i) to not commence until 2025; (ii) the maximum number of senior living communities that may be terminated was reduced to 10% (from 20%) of the total managed portfolio by revenue per year; and (iii) to provide that achieving less than 80% (rather than 90%) of budgeted earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, will be required to qualify as a “Non-Performing Asset.” DHC will not be obligated to pay any termination fee to us if it exercises these termination rights;
•We continue to manage for DHC 119 of the 120 senior living communities that were incorporated under the Master Management Agreement as of June 9, 2021 (the management for one active adult community with 169 living units was terminated by mutual agreement effective October 31, 2022);
•We closed the 27 skilled nursing units in continuing care retirement communities, or CCRCs, that we continue to manage for DHC as independent or assisted living communities, which had 1,532 living units;
•The incentive fee that we may earn in any calendar year for the senior living communities that we continue to manage for DHC will no longer be subject to a cap, any senior living communities that are undergoing a major renovation or repositioning will be excluded from the calculation of the incentive fee and the incentive fee calculation will be reset pursuant to the terms of the management agreements as a result of expected capital projects DHC is planning through mid-2026;
•The RMR Group LLC, or RMR, assumed oversight of major community renovation or repositioning activities at the senior living communities that we continue to manage for DHC; and
•The term of our existing management agreements with DHC was extended by two years to December 31, 2036. We have the right to extend the term for two consecutive five year terms if we achieve certain performance targets for the combined managed communities portfolio, unless earlier terminated.
Pursuant to the Master Management Agreement, we receive a management fee equal to 5% of the gross revenues realized at the applicable senior living communities plus reimbursement for our direct costs and expenses related to such communities. We also receive 3% of construction costs for construction projects we manage at the senior living communities we manage. We may also receive an annual incentive fee equal to 15% of the amount by which the annual EBITDA of all senior living communities on a combined basis exceeds the target EBITDA for all senior living communities on a combined basis for such calendar year. The target EBITDA for those senior living communities on a combined basis is increased annually based on the greater of the annual increase of the Consumer Price Index, or CPI, or 2%, plus 6% of any capital investments funded at the managed senior living communities on a combined basis in excess of the target capital investment. Unless otherwise agreed, the target capital investment increases annually based on the greater of the annual increase of CPI or 2%. Any senior living communities that are undergoing a major renovation or repositioning are excluded from the calculation of the incentive fee.
The Master Management Agreement expires in 2036, subject to our right to extend for two consecutive five year terms if we achieve certain performance targets for the combined managed communities portfolio, unless earlier terminated. Pursuant to the Master Management Agreement, beginning in 2025, DHC will have the right to terminate up to 10% of the senior living communities, based on total revenues per year for failure to meet 80% of a target EBITDA for the applicable period.
As part of the repositioning of our residential management business, we transitioned the management of 107 senior living communities that we managed for DHC with approximately 7,400 living units to new operators during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, of which 69 senior living communities with approximately 4,800 living units were transitioned during the three months ended September 30, 2021. We closed one senior living community with approximately 100 living units that we managed for DHC in February 2022. We also closed all 1,532 skilled nursing facility, or SNF, living units within the 27

CCRC communities, of which 1,473 and 59 living units were closed during the 2021 second and third quarters, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $2,710 and $12,329, respectively, of residential management fees related to the management of these senior living communities and living units.
As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, we managed 120 and 159 senior living communities, respectively, for DHC. We earned residential management fees of $8,497 and $10,418 from the senior living communities we managed for DHC for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $24,713 and $35,437 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

These amounts are included in residential management fees in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Effective October 31, 2022, the management for one active adult community that DHC owns in Plano, Texas was terminated by mutual agreement. We earned total management fees relating to that community of $61 and $54 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $175 and $154 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. DHC paid us a termination fee of approximately $350 in connection with the termination of our management of this active adult community.
We also provide lifestyle services to residents at some of the senior living communities we manage for DHC, such as rehabilitation and wellness services. At senior living communities we manage for DHC where we provide rehabilitation and wellness services on an outpatient basis, the residents, third party payers or government programs pay us for those rehabilitation and wellness services. At senior living communities we previously managed for DHC where we currently provide or previously provided inpatient rehabilitation and wellness services, DHC generally pays us for these services and charges for such services are included in amounts charged to residents, third party payers or government programs. We earned revenues of $1,590 and $1,508 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $5,242 and $9,579 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for lifestyle services we provided at senior living communities we previously managed for DHC and that were payable by DHC. These amounts are included in lifestyle services revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
We earned residential management fees of $104 and $100 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $304 and $309 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for management services at a part of a senior living community DHC subleases to an affiliate, which amounts are included in residential management fees in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and accrued compensation and benefits on our condensed consolidated balance sheets are $28,747 and $21,352, respectively, at September 30, 2022, and $20,345 and $22,619, respectively, at December 31, 2021 that will be or were subsequently, as applicable, reimbursed by DHC and are included in due from related person.
See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part IV, Item 5 of our Annual Report for additional information about our management agreements with DHC.
12. Senior Living Communities Leased from Healthpeak Properties, Inc.
We previously leased four senior living communities from PEAK. On September 30, 2021, we and PEAK terminated our leases for all four communities that we leased from PEAK. These four communities had approximately 200 living units and had residential revenues of $1,457 and lease expense of $724 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and residential revenues of $4,893 and lease expense of $2,185 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

(unaudited)
range from $986 to $1,057 over the term of the lease, inclusive of certain operating costs, including a base amount for utilities and real estate taxes. The lease expires on May 31, 2030. The total aggregate estimated payments over the life of the lease will be approximately $7,861. As a result of the assumption of this lease, we established a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $5,843, using the incremental borrowing rate of 7.4%.
On February 24, 2021, we and the ABP Trust subsidiary renewed the lease for our former headquarters through December 31, 2031. As of the date of that renewal, the annual lease payments were scheduled to range from $1,026 to $1,395 over the term of the lease. On January 10, 2022, we and the ABP Trust subsidiary further amended the lease, which reduced the leased space from approximately 41,000 square feet to approximately 30,000 square feet. As of July 1, 2022, the annual base lease payments, exclusive of utilities and real estate taxes, were scheduled to range from $770 to $1,007 over the term of the lease.

As a result of the January 2022 amendment of the previous lease, we decreased our right-of-use asset and lease liability by $2,958 and $3,237, respectively, in the first quarter of 2022 to reflect the terms of the amendment using the incremental borrowing rate of 5.6% at the time of the January 2022 amendment. As a result of entering into an agreement on July 2, 2022 to terminate this lease on September 30, 2022, we reduced the remaining right-of-use asset and lease liability by $5,876 and $6,374, respectively. The remaining right-of-use asset and lease liability related to this lease was amortized to zero as of September 30, 2022.

The right-of-use asset has been reduced by the amount of accrued lease payments, which amounts are not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Retirement and Separation Arrangements. Katherine E. Potter resigned as our President and Chief Executive Officer effective April 30, 2022. Ms. Potter will remain with the Company as an employee through December 31, 2022 in order to assist in transitioning her duties and responsibilities.
In connection with Ms. Potter’s resignation, we entered into a separation agreement with Ms. Potter on May 2, 2022. Under the separation agreement, we will pay Ms. Potter $12 per month from May 2022 until December 31, 2022 we also paid her a lump sum cash payment in the amount of $483 in May 2022. Provided that Ms. Potter signs and does not revoke a release of claims, and subject to the satisfaction of certain other conditions, on December 31, 2022, we will make an additional cash payment to Ms. Potter in the amount of $483 and will fully accelerate the vesting of any unvested common shares of the Company previously awarded to Ms. Potter as of December 31, 2022, unless that date is accelerated pursuant to the separation agreement. We recorded the full separation cost for Ms. Potter of $1,319 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
In connection with her retirement, on November 22, 2021, we entered into a letter agreement with Margaret Wigglesworth, our former Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. Pursuant to the letter agreement, Ms. Wigglesworth continued to serve as the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer through November 22, 2021, and continued to serve as our employee through December 31, 2021. Pursuant to the letter agreement, we paid Ms. Wigglesworth her current cash salary and benefits through December 31, 2021 and recognized these costs in the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition, subject to the satisfaction of certain other conditions, we made a cash payment of $404 to Ms. Wigglesworth in January 2022 and recognized these costs in the first quarter of 2022.
For further information about these and other such relationships and certain other related person transactions, see Note 15 included in Part IV, Item 15 of our Annual Report.
15. Commitments and Contingencies
We have been, are currently, and expect in the future to be involved in claims, lawsuits, and regulatory and other government audits, investigations and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, some of which may involve
19
AlerisLife Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
material amounts. Also, the defense and resolution of these claims, lawsuits, and regulatory and other government audits, investigations and proceedings may require us to incur significant expense. Loss contingency provisions are recorded for probable and estimable losses at our best estimate of a loss or, when a best estimate cannot be made, at our estimate of the minimum loss. These estimates are often developed prior to knowing the amount of the ultimate loss, require the application of considerable judgment and are refined as additional information becomes known. Accordingly, we are often initially unable to develop a best estimate of loss and therefore the estimated minimum loss amount, which could be zero, is recorded; then, as information becomes known, the minimum loss amount is updated, as appropriate.
In July 2021, we became aware of a potential issue with respect to completion of a form at one of the SNFs we previously managed for DHC. As a result of this discovery, we have made a voluntary self-disclosure to the Office of the Inspector General of HHS, or OIG, pursuant to the OIG's Provider Self-Disclosure Protocol. We submitted our initial disclosure to the OIG in January 2022, and are in discussions with the OIG regarding possible damages. Based on the costs that we have incurred or expect to incur, including estimated OIG imposed penalties, and factoring in DHC's related obligations, we have recorded a total of $288 to general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations in the fourth quarter of 2021 and second quarter of 2022.
In connection with our arrangement with Compass Group, or the Compass Agreement, to manage resident dining at the senior living communities we own or manage, we are obligated to repay amounts totaling $2,405 and $1,240, respectively, for incentives and transition costs incurred by the Compass Group in relation to the twenty communities that had been transitioned as of September 30, 2022. Of those amounts, $2,065 and $974, respectively, would be reimbursable by DHC, if we terminate the agreement prior to January 1, 2028. The repayment amounts are also subject to interest. We expect the remaining senior living communities to transition dining services to Compass Group in the next twelve months.
16. Self-Insurance Reserves
We partially self-insure up to certain limits for workers’ compensation, professional and general liability and automobile insurance programs through an offshore captive insurance company subsidiary. Claims that exceed these limits are reinsured up to contractual limits and reserves for these programs are included in accrued self-insurance obligations in our consolidated balance sheets. We fully self-insure all health-related claims for our covered employees and reserves are included in accrued compensation and benefits in our consolidated balance sheets.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had accrued reserves of $59,257 and $73,174, respectively, under these programs, of which $27,007 and $34,744, respectively, are classified as long-term liabilities. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we recorded $2,271 and $2,686, respectively, of estimated amounts receivable from the reinsurance companies under these programs.
At September 30, 2022, our workers' compensation insurance program was secured by an irrevocable standby letter of credit totaling $23,850 and collateralized by $19,159 of cash equivalents and $4,691 of debt and equity investments.
See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part IV, Item 15 of our Annual Report for further information on our critical accounting estimates and judgments involved in determining our self-insurance obligations.
17. Restructuring Expense
On April 9, 2021, we announced the repositioning of our residential management business to focus on larger independent living, assisted living and memory care communities as well as stand-alone independent living communities. These repositioning activities were substantially completed prior to December 31, 2021.
A summary of the liabilities incurred as a result of this repositioning combined with a reconciliation of the related components of restructuring expense recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, follows, first by cost component and then by segment. The expenses are aggregated and reported in the line item restructuring expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Operational Review
During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we engaged the healthcare consulting arm of Alvarez & Marsal, or A&M, to provide a comprehensive operational review of our business and make recommendations to our Board of Directors. The recommendations made by A&M included general and administrative cost reductions, a corporate reorganization that is designed to enhance accountability and certain operational changes to support team members to ensure the delivery of high-quality experiences to residents and customers and to increase occupancy at our senior living communities, as further described below:
•Reduce costs annually by a target of approximately $2.0 million, net of investments to be made of approximately $3.3 million as described below, by:
◦Streamlining redundant business processes and reducing investments in non-core functions,
◦rationalizing information technology systems to those that directly support core business functions, ensuring their optimal utilization,
◦continually assessing general and administrative expenses to identify cost savings opportunities.
•Invest approximately $3.3 million to refocus on our core business and invest strategically in projects, processes and systems that will enhance our ability to successfully operate our residential and lifestyle services businesses, including:
◦Enhancing the executive leadership team with a Chief Operating Officer to oversee field and national operations and a Chief Financial Officer,
◦investing in a scalable and agile national operations infrastructure to drive operational excellence and results, and
◦establishing a centralized sales function with reinstituted regional sales support to focus on both sales and marketing efforts.
Based on A&M's operational review, on August 3, 2022, we announced a restructuring plan which includes the elimination of certain positions in our corporate team. We expect to complete this restructuring by the middle of 2023. As of the date of this Form 10-Q, we made the following progress with respect to the restructuring plan:
24
•Aligned several functions, including sales, marketing, clinical and resident programming, under the national operations support function;
•Deployed sales support functions to directly support community level sales directors to focus on improved tour to move-in conversion rate;
•Appointed a Chief Financial Officer, effective September 19, 2022, and a Chief Operating Officer, effective October 17, 2022. In addition, we continue to invest in the sales and marketing function, including hiring a Vice President of Marketing, effective October 3, 2022, and five sales directors; and
•Implemented approximately $2.6 million of labor and non-labor annual cost savings, net of approximately $1.8 million in labor investments.
In addition to the restructuring plan, management achieved further cost savings of $4.9 million from the elimination of certain unfilled positions.
In connection with implementing our restructuring plan, we expect to incur non-recurring cash expenses of up to $3.0 million. These expenses are expected to include up to $0.4 million of retention payments, up to $2.0 million of severance, benefits and transition expenses and up to $0.6 million of other restructuring expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $1.6 million of expenses related to the restructuring plan, including $0.1 million of retention payments, $1.4 million of severance, benefits and transition expenses, and $0.1 million of other restructuring expenses, which was recorded in restructuring expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, we recognized costs of $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, related to the implementation of the A&M operational review for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, which are recorded in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
General Industry Trends
We believe that, in the United States, the current primary market for services to older adults is focused on individuals age 75 and older. As a result of medical advances, adults are living longer and expanding their options as to where they choose to reside as they age. The aging of the Baby Boomers and their increasing life expectancy are leading to a fundamental demographic shift. The U.S. age profile reflects a 27.2% rise in the 75+ demographic in the last ten years. This is expected to rise even more significantly by 2030 (as evidenced by the aging boomers in the 65-74 age category)(1).
Due to these demographic trends, service providers are evolving to serve the growing number of older adults and we expect the demand for these services to increase in future years regardless of where the older adults may reside. As we continuously evaluate market opportunities related to older adults, we are cognizant of the demographic trends and projections that indicate that the age 65 and older demographic will represent the largest growth population in the United States over the next decade and beyond. We believe that increased longevity, coupled with evolving consumer preferences, will heighten demand for physical and recreational activities, as well as lifestyle-enhancing services, as older adults seek quality of life, ongoing engagement and sustained independence.
The senior living industry has been materially adversely impacted by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, or COVID-19, pandemic, or the Pandemic, and its economic impact, including the changes in market and older adults' practices during and in response to the Pandemic. While the senior living industry conditions have improved from a low point during the Pandemic, they remain below pre-Pandemic levels. In addition, U.S. economic conditions are currently experiencing significant challenges, including inflation, increasing interest rates, geopolitical risks, labor availability and supply chain issues, that many economic forecasters expect will result in an economic recession.
Occupancy. As a result of the Pandemic and changed market practices in response to, arising from or accelerated during, the Pandemic, we have experienced overall declines in average occupancy at our owned and leased senior living communities. However, we have experienced increases in our owned community average occupancy from 69.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 76.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Consistent with our owned and leased portfolio, the senior living communities we manage for DHC also have experienced increases in average occupancy from 72.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 75.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

25
In order to drive occupancy growth, we recently have launched several initiatives, including i) adding regional staffing positions focused on revenue growth through sales, marketing and rate management, ii) launching a sales training and sales best practices program that we successfully piloted earlier in 2022, and iii) launching a sales incentive program that provides the leadership teams at our senior living communities an opportunity to share in the revenue growth at their communities, with the intent of increasing occupancy at each senior living community.
Despite these initiatives, there is a possibility of occupancy declines in the near term, due to possible surges of COVID variant viruses, or other public health issues that may emerge, current residents leaving our senior living communities, restrictions on new residents moving into and/or touring our senior living communities, older adults continuing the trend of aging at home and the possibility that older adults forego or delay moving into senior living communities because of perceived safety issues associated with the Pandemic or other public health safety concerns. Our revenues are largely dependent on occupancy at our senior living communities and any decline in occupancy adversely impacts these revenues, unless we are able to offset those lost revenues with increased rates we charge our residents and clients or other sources of increased revenues.
Expenses. Our labor costs have been negatively impacted as a result of increased labor costs for community based team members due to competitive market conditions and high levels of inflation. While health insurance costs have decreased as a result of the reduction in the number of team members, there is a possibility that these costs will rise again in the future as a result of claims made related to possible surges of COVID variant viruses or other public health issues that may emerge. The Pandemic and other current economic and market challenges have disrupted the global supply chain, including many of our medical and technological suppliers, due to factory closures and reduced manufacturing output. We believe that our current supplies and supplies we currently have on order should be sufficient to support our needs for the reasonably foreseeable future. We have undertaken efforts to mitigate potential future impacts on the supply chain by increasing our stock of critical materials to meet our expected increased needs for the reasonably foreseeable future and by identifying and engaging alternative suppliers.
Both labor costs and the costs of supplies and materials, in particular food and gasoline costs, have risen over the past year due to either the Russia-Ukraine war or from inflation. While inflation rates have eased slightly from their highest levels in June 2022, they are still running significantly higher than historical averages. We expect these increased costs to continue to impact our results of operations for the foreseeable future.
We incur these costs for our owned senior living communities, rehabilitation services locations and corporate and regional operations. Although DHC is responsible for these costs at the senior living communities we manage for DHC, increases in these costs would reduce earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, realized at these communities and, hence, negatively impact our ability to earn, and the amount of, any incentive fees, as well as possibly impact other aspects of our management arrangements.
Results of Operations. We have experienced negative impacts on our operating results and on the operating results for those senior living communities we manage for DHC as a result of the Pandemic as well as economic, market and industry conditions since the onset of the Pandemic. Although, as noted above, conditions have improved from the lows experienced during the Pandemic, the senior living industry continues to be below pre-Pandemic levels. Although we believe that our business and operating results will improve as the Pandemic further wanes, we expect that it may take an extended period for our business to return to pre-Pandemic levels, if at all, and our business remains subject to decline if Pandemic conditions worsen or for other reasons including the challenging current and forecasted economic and market conditions which may result in an economic recession. Going forward, the amounts and type of revenue, expense and cash flow impacts resulting from the Pandemic will be dependent on a number of factors, including: the speed, depth, geographic reach and duration of the spread of new variants or surges of the disease or other public safety developments; the effectiveness of therapeutic treatments; the impact of the current and forecasted economic and market conditions, including the depth and length of any economic recession; consumer confidence and the demand for our senior living communities and services.
An increase in labor costs due to worker shortages as well as a general increase in costs due to rising inflation have resulted in negative impacts on our operating results and on the operating results for those senior living communities we manage for DHC. We also expect that other direct and indirect impacts of the Pandemic or other public health issues that may arise, potential economic recession, lower levels of consumer confidence, stock market volatility, inflation, rising interest rates and/or changes in demographics could adversely affect the ability of older adults and their families to afford our services.
26
Senior Living Development. In the years prior to the Pandemic, increased access to capital and low-interest rates encouraged increased senior living development, particularly in areas where existing senior living communities have historically experienced high occupancy. This has resulted in a significant increase in new senior living community inventory entering the market in recent years, increasing competitive pressures on us, particularly in certain of our geographic markets. Although new development had been slowing prior to the onset of the Pandemic, and the impact of the Pandemic and current and forecasted economic and market conditions have further impacted new development, we expect that the new inventory that entered the market will continue to have a competitive effect on our business for at least the next few years; these challenges may be intensified if older adults' demand for senior living communities declines or fails to sufficiently grow its impact on the senior living community industry.
Labor Market. We have increased the rates paid to community based team members in order to be competitive with the increasing rates in the market for these front line team members. We also have increased staffing needs at the senior living communities we operate, for which we continue to use temporary staffing through our arrangements with staffing agencies to accommodate staffing shortages due to a tight labor market. The market for skilled front line workers within and outside of the senior living industry continues to be very competitive, and the current demand for those workers remains strong. As of September 30, 2022, there are approximately 10.1 million(1) jobs available in the United States, with only approximately 5.8 million(1) available workers. Our current rate of open positions is approximately 15.0%, a rate which will continue to result in increased expenses from temporary staffing, and increased rates and overtime paid to our community based team members, and may restrict our ability to fully operate our senior living communities.
Management Arrangements with DHC
As part of the repositioning of our residential management business in 2021, we and DHC amended our management arrangements. For more information on the amendments to our management arrangements with DHC, see Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report or "Properties--Our Leases and Management Agreements with DHC" in Part I, Item 2 and Notes 1 and 10 included in Part IV, Item 15 of our Annual Report.
Debt Financing
On January 27, 2022, we entered into a $95.0 million senior secured term loan, or the Loan, $63.0 million of which was funded upon effectiveness of a credit and security agreement, or the Credit Agreement, that we entered into with MidCap Funding VIII Trust, or MidCap, including approximately $3.2 million in closing costs. Upon entering into the Loan, we terminated our $65.0 million secured revolving facility, or our Credit Facility, that we had with a syndicate of lenders and was available for us to use for general business purposes. At September 30, 2022, we had one mortgage note outstanding totaling $6.7 million. For more information about the Loan, our previous Credit Facility and our mortgage note, see Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Our Revenues
Our revenues are derived from the services we provide to residents at our senior living communities and to older adults through our lifestyle services, and these revenues are our primary source of cash to fund our operating expenses, including capital expenditures at the senior living communities we own and principal and interest payments on our debt.
Medicare and Medicaid programs provide operating revenues for lifestyle services and certain of our former skilled nursing facility, or SNF, units. We derived approximately 5.6% and 4.3% of our consolidated revenues from these government-funded programs during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Revenues from Medicare programs totaled $28.6 million and $31.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Revenues from Medicaid programs totaled $0.8 million and $0.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The concentration of revenues derived from Medicare and Medicaid is principally earned in connection with our lifestyle services.
In connection with the repositioning of our residential management business, we transitioned 107 senior living communities that we managed for DHC with approximately 7,400 living units to new operators, of which 69 senior living communities with approximately 4,800 living units were transitioned during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and closed one senior living community with approximately 100 living units. In addition, we and DHC closed all 1,532 SNF living units in 27 managed continuing care retirement communities, or CCRCs that we continue to manage for DHC as independent or assisted living communities, of which 1,473 and 59 living units were closed during the second and third quarters of 2021, respectively.

27
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $2.7 million and $12.3 million of residential management fees related to these senior living communities and living units, respectively. Through September 30, 2022, we also closed 29 of the 37 Ageility inpatient rehabilitation clinics. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $1.5 million and $9.6 million of revenue related to all 37 inpatient rehabilitation clinics, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $1.6 million and $5.2 million of revenue related to the ten inpatient rehabilitation clinics we continue to operate (inclusive of revenue earned from two inpatient rehabilitation clinics that were closed during the three months ended September 30, 2022).
Effective September 30, 2021, we terminated our lease for four communities with approximately 200 living units, which had residential revenues of $1.5 million and $4.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. For more information regarding the termination of these leases, see Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report.
Federal and state governments have taken a number of actions to respond to the Pandemic. Certain of these actions may increase our operational costs or reduce our revenue, while others are designed to alleviate the adverse operational and financial consequences related to the Pandemic on operators of long-term care and senior living communities like us.
For further information regarding federal actions in response to the Pandemic, government healthcare funding and regulation and their possible impact on us and our business, revenues and operations, see the sections captioned “Business—Government Regulation and Reimbursement” in Part I, Item I of our Annual Report.
Results of Operations
We operate in two reportable segments: (1) residential and (2) lifestyle services. In the residential segment, we manage for others and operate, respectively, primarily independent living communities and assisted living communities that are subject to centralized oversight and provide housing and services to older adults. Included in the results of the assisted living communities are memory care living units. In the lifestyle services segment, we provide a comprehensive suite of rehabilitation and wellness services, including physical, occupational, speech and other specialized therapy services, in inpatient clinics and outpatient locations as well as home health and fitness services.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $2.7 million and $12.3 million, respectively, of residential management fees related to the senior living communities and living units that we previously managed for DHC, that have been transitioned to other operators or were closed pursuant to the repositioning of our residential management business. We recognized lifestyle services revenue of $1.6 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $5.2 million and $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to the inpatient rehabilitation clinics. The decrease from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was due to the closure of 27 inpatient clinics in the prior year. The information in the Key Statistical Data table below includes those senior living communities, living units and rehabilitation clinics in the results reported.
All of our operations and assets are located in the United States, except for the operations of our Cayman Islands organized captive insurance company subsidiary, which participates in our workers’ compensation, professional and general liability and certain automobile insurance programs.

(1) The three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 include data for 20 owned senior living communities, 120 managed senior living communities and 185 outpatient rehabilitation locations that we have continuously owned or managed since July 1, 2021. The summary of operations for comparable communities and locations excludes (i) 59 SNF living units that were closed in one CCRC and (ii) eight Ageility inpatient rehabilitation clinics.
(2) Includes only living units categorized as in service. As a result, the number of living units may change from period to period for reasons other than the acquisition or disposition of senior living communities.
(3) RevPAR is defined by us as resident fee revenues for the corresponding portfolio for the period divided by the average number of available units for the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period. Data for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 exclude income received by senior living communities under the Provider Relief Fund of the CARES Act and other governmental grants.
(4) RevPOR is defined by us as resident fee revenues for the corresponding portfolio for the period divided by the average number of occupied units for the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period. Data for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 exclude income received by senior living communities under the Provider Relief Fund of the CARES Act and other governmental grants.
(5) Represents the average number of Ageility customers divided by average total occupancy at each of the senior living communities where we operate Ageility outpatient rehabilitation locations. Occupancy is defined as the average total number of residents residing at the senior living communities.
The following is a discussion of our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Lifestyle services revenues. The decrease in lifestyle services revenues is primarily due to a decrease in outpatient rehabilitation location revenues of $0.8 million, primarily resulting from the $0.4 million impact of the closure of 17 outpatient rehabilitation locations in December 2021 in senior living communities that were transitioned to new operators or closed, as well as the $0.5 million impact of a Medicare fee schedule rate cut in 2022, partially offset by an increase in outpatient clinic visits. The decrease in lifestyle services revenues at our comparable locations is primarily due to the $0.5 million impact of a Medicare fee schedule rate cut in 2022 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Residential revenues. The increase in residential revenues is primarily due to an increase in average occupancy from 69.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 76.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 at our owned and leased senior living communities, as well as a slight increase in average rates. This increase was partially offset by the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021. The discontinuation of these four communities resulted in a decrease in revenues of $1.5 million. The increase in residential revenues at our comparable communities is primarily due to the increase in average occupancy from 70.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 76.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as well as a slight increase in average rates.
Residential management fees. The decrease in residential management fees is due to declines in gross revenues at the senior living communities we manage, primarily caused by the transitioning of approximately 7,400 living units to new operators in 2021, of which approximately 4,800 living units transitioned during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and the closure of approximately 100 living units subsequent to September 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease in residential management fees of $2.7 million. These declines in gross revenues as a result of the repositioning of the residential management business have been partially offset with the improvement in average occupancy from 72.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 75.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as well as a slight increase in residential construction management fees we earn on construction projects we manage. The increase in residential management fees at our comparable senior living communities was primarily due to the improvement in gross revenues at the senior living communities we manage related to the increase in average occupancy from 73.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 75.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as well as due to an increase in residential construction management fees we earn on construction projects we manage.
Reimbursed community-level costs incurred on behalf of managed communities. The decrease in reimbursed community-level costs incurred on behalf of managed communities was primarily due to the transitioning of the management of approximately 7,400 living units to new operators in 2021, of which approximately 4,800 living units transitioned during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and the closure of approximately 100 living units in February 2022.
Other reimbursed expenses. Other reimbursed expenses represent reimbursements that arise from certain centralized services we provide pursuant to our management agreements with DHC. The decrease in other reimbursed expenses was primarily due to a decrease in the expenses that are reimbursable as a result of the reduced corporate headcount of approximately 20% in connection with the repositioning of our residential management business, as well as a decrease in reimbursements of $0.8 million related to restructuring expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Other operating income. Other operating income represents funds received and recognized under the Provider Relief Fund of the CARES Act General Fund Distribution and other government grants.
Lifestyle services expenses. The increase in lifestyle services expenses is primarily due to the full quarter impact of the new outpatient rehabilitation locations opened during or subsequent to the third quarter of 2021, an increase in outpatient rehabilitation location visits during the three months ended September 30, 2022 when compared to the same quarter in the prior year and higher labor costs due to rising wages and market conditions. Those increases were partially offset by $0.4 million of
31
expenses that had been incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2021 related to 17 outpatient rehabilitation locations that were subsequently closed in December 2021 in senior living communities that were transitioned to new operators or closed. The increase in lifestyle services expenses at our comparable locations was due primarily to the increase in outpatient rehabilitation location visits during the three months ended September 30, 2022 when compared to the same quarter in the prior year as well as higher labor costs.
Residential wages and benefits. The increase in residential wages and benefits is primarily due to increased medical insurance and workers compensation costs of $0.9 million as a result of an increase in the number of claims received compared to the third quarter of 2021 as well as an increase in labor costs due to rising wages and market conditions. These increases were partially offset by the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021, which resulted in a decrease in residential wages and benefits of $0.8 million. The increase in residential wages and benefits at our comparable communities is primarily due to increased costs for medical insurance and workers compensation of $1.0 million as well as higher labor costs.
Other residential operating expenses. Other residential operating expenses are comprised of utilities, housekeeping, dietary, repairs and maintenance, insurance and other community-level costs. The decrease in other residential operating expenses is primarily due to the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021, which resulted in a decrease in other residential operating expenses of $1.3 million, as well as slightly decreased costs associated with our self-insurance obligations. The increase in other residential operating expenses at our comparable communities is primarily due to increases in costs related to marketing, utilities, disposable food supplies and other costs that have been impacted by rising inflation and supply chain issues, partially offset by reductions in building maintenance and medical supplies.
General and administrative. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to lower corporate wages and benefits due to reduced corporate headcount of approximately 20% primarily in connection with the repositioning of the residential management business and lower fees for services performed by RMR due to a decrease in revenues for which those fees are determined, partially offset by $0.6 million of costs related to the operational review performed by A&M for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Restructuring expenses. The increase in restructuring expenses was primarily due to severance, benefits, transition and retention costs incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2022, related to the restructuring plan implemented as a result of A&M's operational review.
Depreciation and amortization. The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to an increase in depreciation as a result of the investment of capital in our owned senior living communities, partially offset by the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021, which resulted in a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $0.1 million.
Interest, dividend and other income. Interest, dividend and other income consists of interest earned primarily on our debt and equity investments.
Interest and other expense. Interest and other expense consists primarily of interest expense on the Loan, amortization of deferred financing fees on the Loan, and interest on our finance leases and mortgage note for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Interest and other expense consists primarily of amortization of deferred financing fees and commitment fees related to our Credit Facility, and interest on our finance leases and mortgage note for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in interest and other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was due to interest related to the Loan.
Unrealized (loss) gain on equity investments. Unrealized (loss) gain on equity investments represents adjustments made to our investments in equity securities to record amounts at fair value. The increase in unrealized loss in the three months ended September 30, 2022 is due to market conditions.
Realized gain on sale of debt and equity investments. Realized gain on sale of debt and equity investments represents our realized gains and losses on investments.
Gain (loss) on termination of leases Gain on termination of lease for the three months ended September 30, 2022 is due to the termination of our previous headquarters lease. Loss on termination of leases for the three months ended September 30, 2021 represents a $3.3 million loss on the lease termination of four communities. These costs include a $3.1 million lease termination fee, the write off of the remaining net assets at the communities including property and equipment and the remaining right of use assets, less the remaining recorded lease liability and the remaining obligation under the insurance deductible for a fire that occurred at one of the four leased communities. For more information about the lease terminations, see
32
Note 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 11 included in Part IV, Item 15 of our Annual Report.
(Provision) benefit for income taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $0.0 million and a benefit for income taxes of $0.2 million, respectively. The benefit for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is related to a decrease in the annual projection for state income taxes.

(1) The nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 include data for 20 owned senior living communities, 120 managed senior living communities and 178 outpatient rehabilitation locations that we have continuously owned or managed since January 1, 2021. The summary of operations for comparable communities and locations excludes (i) 1,532 SNF living units that were closed in 27 CCRCs and (ii) eight Ageility inpatient rehabilitation clinics.
(2) Includes only living units categorized as in service. As a result, the number of living units may change from period to period for reasons other than the acquisition or disposition of senior living communities.
(3) RevPAR is defined by us as resident fee revenues for the corresponding portfolio for the period divided by the average number of available units for the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period.

(5) Represents the average number of Ageility customers divided by average total occupancy at each of the senior living communities where we operate Ageility outpatient rehabilitation locations. Occupancy is defined as the average total number of residents residing at the senior living communities.
The following is a discussion of our operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Lifestyle services revenues. The decrease in lifestyle services revenues is primarily due to a decrease in inpatient rehabilitation clinic revenues of $4.3 million and outpatient rehabilitation location revenues of $4.4 million. The reduction of our inpatient rehabilitation clinic revenues is primarily associated with the closure of 27 inpatient rehabilitation clinics during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as part of the repositioning of the residential management business. The reduction of our outpatient rehabilitation location revenues primarily resulted from the $1.4 million impact of the closure of the 17 outpatient rehabilitation locations in December 2021 in senior living communities that were transitioned to new operators or closed, as well as the $1.8 million impact of a Medicare fee schedule rate cut in 2022. The decrease in lifestyle services revenues at our comparable locations is due to the $1.8 million impact of a Medicare fee schedule rate cut in 2022 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Residential revenues. The decrease in residential revenues is primarily due to the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021. The discontinuation of these four communities resulted in a decrease in revenues of $4.9 million. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in average occupancy from 68.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to 73.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 at our owned senior living communities. The increase in residential revenues at our comparable communities is primarily due to the increase in average occupancy from 69.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to 73.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Residential management fees. The decrease in residential management fees is due to declines in gross revenues at the senior living communities we manage, primarily caused by the transitioning of approximately 7,400 living units to new operators in 2021 and the closure of approximately 100 living units in February 2022, resulting in a decrease in residential management fees of $10.5 million, and the closure of 1,532 SNF living units during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease in residential management fees of $1.9 million. These declines in gross revenues as a result of the repositioning of the residential management business have been partially offset with the improvement in average occupancy from 70.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to 74.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in residential management fees at our comparable senior living communities was primarily due to the improvement in gross revenues at the senior living communities we manage related to the increase in average occupancy from 73.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to 74.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Reimbursed community-level costs incurred on behalf of managed communities. The decrease in reimbursed community-level costs incurred on behalf of managed communities was primarily due to the transitioning of the management of approximately 7,400 living units to new operators in 2021, the closure of approximately 100 living units in February 2022, and the closure of 1,532 SNF living units during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Other reimbursed expenses. Other reimbursed expenses represent reimbursements that arise from certain centralized services we provide pursuant to our management agreements with DHC. The decrease in other reimbursed expenses was primarily due to reimbursements of $12.3 million related to restructuring expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as well as a decrease in the expenses that are reimbursable as a result of the reduced corporate headcount of approximately 20% primarily in connection with the repositioning of our residential management business.
Other operating income. Other operating income represents funds received and recognized under the Provider Relief Fund of the CARES Act General Fund Distribution and other government grants. The decrease in other operating income was due to the decrease in Cares Act funds received during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Lifestyle services expenses. The decrease in lifestyle services expenses is primarily due to $4.2 million of lifestyle services expenses that had been incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 with respect to the 27 inpatient rehabilitation clinics that were closed during that period as part of the repositioning of our residential management business and
36
$1.3 million of expenses that had been incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 related to 17 outpatient rehabilitation locations that were subsequently closed in December 2021 in senior living communities that were transitioned to new operators or closed. Those decreases were partially offset by the full period impact of the new outpatient rehabilitation locations opened during or subsequent to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in lifestyle services expenses at our comparable communities was due to the slight increase in outpatient rehabilitation location visits during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Residential wages and benefits. The decrease in residential wages and benefits is primarily due to the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021, which resulted in a decrease in residential wages and benefits of $2.6 million. The increase in residential wages and benefits at our comparable communities is primarily due to higher labor costs, mostly offset by decreased costs for medical insurance and workers compensation costs.
Other residential operating expenses. Other residential operating expenses are comprised of utilities, housekeeping, dietary, repairs and maintenance, insurance and other community-level costs. The decrease in other residential operating expenses is primarily due to the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021, which resulted in a decrease in other residential operating expenses of $5.2 million, including a $0.9 million asset impairment recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 related to a senior living community that was damaged by a fire, as well as decreased costs associated with our self-insurance obligations and a $0.5 million business interruption insurance recovery recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. These decreases were partially offset by increased costs related to marketing, utilities, disposable food supplies and other costs that have been impacted by rising inflation and supply chain issues. The increase in other residential operating expenses at our comparable communities is primarily due to increased costs related to marketing, utilities, disposable food supplies and other costs that have been impacted by rising inflation and supply chain issues, partially offset by lower building maintenance and medical supplies costs and decreased costs associated with our self-insurance obligations.
General and administrative. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to lower corporate wages and benefits due to reduced corporate headcount of approximately 20% primarily in connection with the repositioning of the residential management business and lower fees for services performed by RMR due to a decrease in revenues for which those fees are determined, partially offset by costs associated with the separation agreement with our former President and Chief Executive Officer of approximately $1.3 million, and $1.3 million of costs related to the operational review performed by A&M during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Restructuring expenses. The decrease in restructuring expenses was primarily due to severance and retention costs related to the repositioning of our residential management business incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of which $12.3 million was reimbursed by DHC and is also included in other reimbursed expenses, partially offset by the restructuring plan implemented as a result of A&M's operational review.
Depreciation and amortization. The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to an increase in depreciation as a result of the investment of capital in our owned senior living communities, partially offset by the termination of a lease for four communities on September 30, 2021, which resulted in a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $0.4 million.
Interest, dividend and other income. Interest, dividend and other income consists of interest earned primarily on our debt and equity investments.
Interest and other expense. Interest and other expense consists primarily of interest expense on the Loan, amortization of deferred financing fees on the Loan, and interest on our finance leases and mortgage note for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Interest and other expense consists primarily of amortization of deferred financing fees and commitment fees related to our Credit Facility, and interest on our finance leases and mortgage note for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in interest and other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was due to interest related to the Loan.
Unrealized (loss) gain on equity investments. Unrealized (loss) gain on equity investments represents adjustments made to our investments in equity securities to record amounts at fair value. The increase in unrealized loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is due to market conditions.
Realized gain on sale of debt and equity investments. Realized gain on sale of debt and equity investments represents our realized gains and losses on investments.
37
Gain (loss) on termination of leases. Gain on termination of lease for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is due to termination of our previous headquarters lease. Loss on termination of leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 represents a $3.3 million loss on the lease termination for four communities. These costs include a $3.1 million lease termination fee, the write off of the remaining net assets at the communities including property and equipment and the remaining right of use assets, less the remaining recorded lease liability and the remaining lease obligations under the insurance deductible for a fire that occurred at one of the four leased communities.
Provision for income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is related to state income taxes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require cash to fund our operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to service our debt obligations. As of September 30, 2022, we had $79.1 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2022, our restricted cash and cash equivalents included $19.2 million of bank term deposits in our captive insurance company. On January 27, 2022, we entered into the $95.0 million Loan, $63.0 million of which was funded upon effectiveness of the Credit Agreement, including approximately $3.2 million in closing costs. For more information about the Loan, see Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had current assets of $199.3 million and $186.8 million, respectively, and current liabilities of $126.1 million and $140.9 million, respectively.
The following table presents selected data on our operations from our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

Operating Activities
The increase in cash flows used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 is primarily due to the increase in net loss ($7.9 million), as well as an increase in cash used related to due from related person ($78.0 million) as a result of the repositioning of our residential management business in 2021, and an increase in cash used related to accounts payable ($11.1 million) partially offset by a decrease in cash used related to accrued expenses and other current liabilities ($22.7 million).
Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased as compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to increased investments of property and equipment for owned senior living communities, rehabilitation locations and shared services infrastructure, partially offset by an increase in proceeds received from the sale of debt and equity investments.
Financing Activities
The increase in net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021 is primarily due to the $60.6 million of proceeds received from the Loan, net of deferred financing fees.
38
Capital Expenditures
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we invested $10.2 million primarily in our owned senior living communities and rehabilitation locations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we invested $7.1 million primarily in our owned and leased senior living communities and rehabilitation locations. DHC funds the capital expenditures at the senior living communities we manage for the account of DHC pursuant to our management agreements with DHC.
Liquidity
Our liquidity and capital funding requirements depend on numerous factors, including our operating results, our working capital requirements and capital expenditures to the extent not funded by DHC pursuant to our management agreements with DHC, general economic conditions and the cost of capital. Shortfalls in cash flows from operating results or other principal sources of liquidity may have an adverse impact on our ability to execute our strategy or to maintain appropriate capital spending levels. We believe we have adequate financial resources from our existing cash flows from operations, together with unrestricted cash on hand and amounts available under our Loan, to support our business for at least the next twelve months.
We are closely monitoring the effect of the current and forecasted economic and market conditions, including the current inflationary conditions, on our liquidity. We currently expect to use cash on hand and cash flows from operations to fund our future operations and capital expenditures, to the extent not funded or reimbursed by DHC pursuant to our management agreements with DHC. We also have up to $12.0 million of additional proceeds available from the Loan to fund capital improvements at senior living communities we own. DHC funds the operating and capital expenses for the senior living communities we manage for DHC. We intend to conduct our business in a manner that will afford us reasonable access to capital for investment and financing activities, but we cannot be certain that we will be able to successfully carry out this intention, particularly because of the uncertainty surrounding the current and forecasted economic conditions and whether the senior living industry will return to pre-pandemic levels. A long, protracted and extensive decline in economic conditions, adverse market conditions in the senior living industry or disruption on the capital markets may cause a decline in financing availability and increased costs for financings.
Insurance
We self-insure our professional and general liability and auto insurance. Recently, the costs that we incur for health insurance, to settle claims and to purchase insurance for claims in excess of the self-insured amounts have decreased as a result of the reduction in team members, some of which related to the senior living communities we manage on behalf of DHC and are reimbursed to us by DHC pursuant to our management agreements with DHC. However, these costs may not continue to decrease in the future. We also have purchased property insurance coverage under DHC's policy with unrelated third party insurance providers.
For more information about our existing insurance see “Business—Insurance” in Part I, Item I of our Annual Report.
Debt Financings and Covenants
On January 27, 2022, certain of our subsidiaries entered into the Credit Agreement with MidCap. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we entered into a $95.0 million Loan, $63.0 million of which was funded upon effectiveness of the Credit Agreement, including approximately $3.2 million in closing costs. The remaining proceeds include $12.0 million for capital improvements at senior living communities we own and an opportunity for another $20.0 million that is available to us upon achieving certain financial targets. Certain of our subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement and we and one of our subsidiaries provided a payment guarantee of up to $40.0 million of the obligations under the Credit Agreement as well as non-recourse carve-outs. The guaranty is evidenced by a Guaranty and Security Agreement, or the Guaranty Agreement, made by us and one of our subsidiaries in favor of MidCap. Pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement, our subsidiary granted MidCap a security interest on all of the assets of the subsidiary. The Guaranty Agreement requires us and our subsidiary to comply with various covenants, including restricting our ability to make distributions to shareholders. The Loan is secured by real estate mortgages on 14 senior living communities owned by us, our assets and certain related collateral. The maturity date of the Loan is January 27, 2025. Subject to the payment of an extension fee of 35 basis points and meeting certain other conditions, we may elect to extend the stated maturity date of the Loan for two one-year periods. We are required to pay interest on outstanding amounts at an annual base rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, plus a term SOFR adjustment of 11 basis points (subject to a minimum base rate of 50 basis points) plus 450 basis points. The Credit Agreement requires interest only payments for the first two years and requires mandatory prepayment of the Loan on account of certain events of default. Voluntary prepayments made within 18 months of the effective date of the Loan will be subject to a
39
prepayment fee, equal to the greater of the present value of remaining interest payments relating to the principal amount being repaid or 0.50% of the outstanding balance of the Loan as of the date of prepayment. The Loan may thereafter be voluntarily prepaid without premium or penalty. The Company will be required to pay an exit fee between 1.0% and 1.5%, subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, upon any prepayment of the Loan, which would be in addition to any prepayment fees that may be payable. The Loan provides for acceleration of payment of all amounts outstanding upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, including a change of control of us, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The default rate of interest is 5.0% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise payable under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also contains a number of financial and other covenants including covenants that restrict a borrowers' ability to incur indebtedness or to pay or make distributions under certain circumstances and requires us to maintain a debt yield percentage ranging from 3.0% to 7.5% beginning March 31, 2023, and a debt service coverage ratio ranging from 1.15:1.00 to 1.25:1.00 beginning September 30, 2023. The Credit Agreement also contains certain representations and warranties and reporting obligations. The annual interest rate on the Loan as of September 30, 2022 was 7.7%. For more information about the Loan, see Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Loan replaced our $65.0 million Credit Facility, which was available for general business purposes and was scheduled to expire on June 12, 2022 before it was terminated on January 27, 2022. No borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Facility at the time we entered into the Credit Agreement. We were required to pay interest on borrowings under our Credit Facility at an annual rate of LIBOR plus a premium of 250 basis points per annum; or at a base rate, as defined in the credit agreement, plus 150 basis points per annum. We were also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the unused portion of the available capacity under our Credit Facility. No principal repayment was due until maturity.
We also have a mortgage note as of September 30, 2022, that we assumed in connection with a previous acquisition of a senior living community. Payments of principal and interest are due monthly under this mortgage debt until maturity in September 2032. The annual interest rate on this mortgage debt was 6.20% as of September 30, 2022.
At September 30, 2022, we had one irrevocable standby letter of credit outstanding, totaling $23.9 million. This letter of credit, which secures our workers' compensation insurance program, is collateralized by approximately $19.2 million of cash equivalents and $4.7 million of debt and equity investments. This letter of credit expires in June 2023 and is automatically extended for one-year terms unless notice of nonrenewal is provided prior to the end of the applicable term. At September 30, 2022, the cash equivalents collateralizing this letter of credit are classified as current restricted cash and cash equivalents in our consolidated balance sheets, and the debt and equity investments collateralizing this letter of credit are classified as current restricted debt and equity investments in our consolidated balance sheets.
As of September 30, 2022, we had $63.0 million outstanding on our Loan, and $6.7 million outstanding on the mortgage note. As of September 30, 2022, we believe we were in compliance with all applicable covenants under our debt agreements.
For more information regarding our debt financings and covenants, see Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Related Person Transactions
We have relationships and historical and continuing transactions with DHC, RMR, ABP Trust and others related to them. For further information about these and other such relationships and related person transactions, see Notes 11, 13 and 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Annual Report, our definitive Proxy Statement for our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and our other filings with the SEC. In addition, see the section captioned "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report for a description of risks that may arise as a result of these and other related person transactions and relationships. We may engage in additional transactions with related persons, including businesses to which RMR or its subsidiaries provide management services.
Seasonality
Revenues derived from our senior living and managed communities are subject to modest effects of seasonality, which we experience in certain regions more than others, due to weather patterns, geography and higher incidence and severity of flu and other illnesses during winter months. We do not expect these seasonal differences to cause material fluctuations in our revenues or operating cash flows. It is uncertain what the long-term survival, recurrence and resurgence of COVID-19 will be, including whether it will weaken, transform or otherwise become a common seasonal virus, which may change or amplify seasonal aspects and effects on our business.

Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

•Our expectations of the types of services older adults will demand and our ability to satisfy those demands,
•Our expectation that we will continue to diversify revenue through growth of our lifestyle service offerings, including opening new outpatient rehabilitation locations and expanding our fitness and other home-based service offerings within and outside our senior living communities,

Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. A summary of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could have a material adverse effect on our forward-looking statements and upon our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, liquidity and prospects identified in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K include, but are not limited to:
•The impact of conditions in the economy and the capital markets on us and our customers,
•Competition for older adult customers within the residential and lifestyle services businesses,
•Older adults delaying or forgoing moving into senior living communities or purchasing lifestyle services from us,
42
•Increases in our labor costs or in costs we pay for goods and services, delays in supply chain and price inflation,
•Increases in tort and insurance liability costs,
•Our operating and debt leverage,
•Actual and potential conflicts of interest with our related parties, including our Managing Directors, DHC, RMR, ABP Trust and others affiliated with them,
•Changes in Medicare or Medicaid policies and regulations or the possible future repeal, replacement or modification of these or other existing or proposed legislation or regulations, which could result in reduced Medicare or Medicaid rates, a failure of such rates to cover our costs or limit the scope or funding of either or both programs, or reductions in private insurance utilization and coverage,
•Delays or nonpayment of government payments to us,
•Compliance with, and changes to, federal, state and local laws and regulations that could affect our services or impose requirements, costs and administrative burdens that may reduce our ability to profitably operate our business,
•Our exposure to litigation and regulatory and government proceedings due to the nature of our business, including adverse determinations resulting from government reviews, audits and investigations and unanticipated costs to comply with legislative or regulatory developments,
•Ongoing healthcare reform efforts, including continued efforts by third-party payers to reduce costs,
•Acts of terrorism, outbreaks of so-called pandemics or other human-made or natural disasters beyond our control, and
•The effects of the implementation of the repositioning of our residential management business and restructuring of our business based on the recommendations of A&M on our business and operations.
For example:
•Challenging conditions continue to exist, including inflation, high interest rates and geopolitical risks, and some forecasts expect worsening economic and market conditions, including a possible economic recession, and our business and operations is subject to substantial risks, many of which are beyond our control. As a result, our operations may not be profitable in the future and we may realize losses,
•Our ability to deliver residential management or lifestyle services profitably and increase the revenues we generate depends upon many factors, including our ability to integrate new senior living communities and rehabilitation locations into our existing operations, as well as some factors that are beyond our control, such as the demand for our services arising from economic conditions generally and competition from other providers of services to older adults. We may not be able to successfully integrate, operate, compete and profitably manage our senior living communities and deliver lifestyle services,
•We expect to enter into management arrangements with DHC or other owners for additional senior living communities. However, we cannot be sure that we will enter into any additional management arrangements,
•Our belief that the aging of the U.S. population and increasing life spans of older adults will increase demand for senior living communities and lifestyle services may not be realized or may not result in increased demand for our services,
•Our investments in our workforce and continued focus on reducing team member turnover by enhancing our competitiveness in the marketplace with respect to cash compensation and other benefits, as well as our efforts to attract talent, may not be successful and may not result in the benefits we expect to achieve through such investments,
•The costs of executing the repositioning of our residential management business may be more than we expect,
•We may not realize the benefits we anticipate from the repositioning of our residential management business,
43
•We may not be able to achieve our objectives following implementation of the repositioning of our residential management business, including partially offsetting the revenue loss from the senior living communities we transitioned with expense reductions to right-size operations, on the anticipated timeline, or at all,
•We may not be able to achieve the objectives of the restructuring plan recommended by A&M, including reducing our costs and improving occupancy, and it may take longer and cost more to complete the restructuring than we expect,
•We cannot be sure that the terms of our new management arrangements with DHC will achieve the anticipated benefit on our operating results,
•Our expectation that our lifestyle services segment will grow may not be realized or any growth it does achieve may not be profitable or produce the benefits we expect,
•Current inflationary pressures may continue or increase, which may significantly harm our business and results of operations,
•Our strategic arrangements or collaborations with third party service providers may not be successful and we may not realize the benefits we expect from these arrangements,
•Our sales and marketing initiatives may not succeed in increasing our revenues, and they may cost more than any increased revenues they may generate,
•Our strategic investments to enhance efficiencies and enhance our service offerings or grow our business may not be successful or generate the returns we expect,
•Circumstances that adversely affect the ability of older adults or their families to pay for our services, such as economic downturns, inflation, weakening housing market conditions, higher levels of unemployment among our customers or their family members, lower levels of consumer confidence, stock market volatility and/or changes in demographics generally could affect the revenues and profitability of our business,
•Customers who pay for our services with their private resources may become unable to afford our services, resulting in decreased revenues,
•The various federal and state government agencies that pay us for the services we provide to some of our customers are still experiencing budgetary constraints and may lower the Medicare, Medicaid and other rates they pay us,
•We believe that our insurance costs may rise as a result of claims or litigation associated with the Pandemic and general market conditions,
•We may be unable to repay or refinance our debt obligations when they become due,
•We believe that we have adequate financial resources to fund our business for at least the next 12 months. However, we have incurred in the most recent period, and in prior periods, and we may continue to incur in future periods, operating losses and we have a large accumulated deficit. Moreover, certain aspects of our operations and future growth opportunities that we may pursue in our business may require significant amounts of cash and require us to make significant capital expenditures. As a result, we may not have sufficient cash liquidity,
•The amount of available borrowings under our Loan is subject to our having qualified collateral, which is primarily based on the value of the assets securing our obligations under our Loan. Accordingly, the available borrowings under the Loan at any time may be less than $95.0 million as it was as of September 30, 2022. Also, the availability of borrowings under our Loan is subject to our satisfying certain financial covenants and other conditions that we may be unable to satisfy,
•We intend to conduct our business in a manner that will afford us reasonable access to capital for investment and financing activities. However, we may not be able to successfully carry out this intention. Further, market disruptions, as well as general economic conditions, may significantly limit our access to capital,
44
•Our actions and approach to managing our insurance costs, including our operating an offshore captive insurance company and self-insuring with respect to certain liability matters, may not be successful and could result in our incurring significant costs and liabilities that we will be responsible for funding,
•Contingencies in any applicable acquisition or sale agreements we have entered into, or may enter into, may not be satisfied and our applicable acquisitions or sales, and any related management arrangements we may expect to enter into or exit, may not occur, may be delayed or the terms of such transactions or arrangements may change,
•We may be unable to meet collateral requirements related to our workers’ compensation insurance program for future policy years, which may result in increased costs for such insurance program,
•We may not be able to sell senior living communities that we own or manage, that we, or DHC may seek to sell, on acceptable terms or we may incur losses in connection with any such sales,
•We believe that our relationships with our related parties, including DHC, RMR, ABP Trust and others affiliated with them may benefit us and provide us with competitive advantages in operating and growing our business. However, the advantages we believe we may realize from these relationships may not materialize, and
•Components of our residential management and lifestyle services are subject to extensive government regulation, licensure and oversight. We sometimes have regulatory issues in the operation of our senior living communities and delivery of lifestyle services and, as a result, we may periodically be prohibited from or limited in admitting new residents or providing services, or our license to continue operations may be suspended or revoked. Also, operating deficiencies or a license revocation may have an adverse impact on our ability to operate, obtain licenses for, or attract customers.
Currently, unexpected results could occur due to many different circumstances, some of which are beyond our control, such as acts of terrorism, natural disasters, war or other hostilities, global climate change, pandemics, epidemics and other widespread illnesses, including the Pandemic, changed Medicare or Medicaid rates, new legislation, regulations or rulemaking affecting our business, or changes in capital markets or the economy generally.
We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risk and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or qualified, our forward-looking statements should not be relied on as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected or implied in our forward-looking statements. The matters discussed in this warning should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The information contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including under the caption “Risk Factors”, or incorporated herein or therein, identifies other important factors that could cause differences from our forward-looking statements. Our filings with the SEC are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
You should not place undue reliance upon our forward-looking statements.
Except as required by law, we do not intend to update or change any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PART II. Other Information
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our business faces many risks, a number of which are described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The risks described in our Annual Report may not be the only risks we face. Other risks of which we are not yet aware, or that we currently believe are not material, may also materially and adversely impact our business operations or financial results. If any of the events or circumstances described in the risk factors contained in our Annual Report occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely impacted and the value of an investment in our securities could decline. Investors and prospective investors should consider the risks described in our Annual Report and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the information contained under the caption “Warning Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q before deciding whether to invest in our securities.
Item 5. Other Information
