NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2021
(Unaudited)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Overview
Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (the ‘‘Company’’, ‘‘we’’, ‘‘our’’) was organized in the State of Maryland on March 28, 2014. The Company is a fully-integrated healthcare real estate company that owns and acquires real estate properties that are leased to hospitals, doctors, healthcare systems or other healthcare service providers. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had investments of approximately $824.4 million in 151 real estate properties (including a portion of one property accounted for as a financing lease with a gross amount totaling approximately $3.0 million and one property classified as held for sale with a gross amount totaling approximately $1.1 million (See Note 10)). The properties are located in 33 states, totaling approximately 3.3 million square feet in the aggregate and were approximately 89.3% leased at September 30, 2021 with a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 8.0 years. Any references to square footage, property count, or occupancy percentages, and any amounts derived from these values in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, are outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm's review.

COVID-19 Pandemic
The world was, and continues to be, impacted by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread impacted many healthcare providers, including some of our tenants. During 2020, some of them were not seeing patients, others saw a reduced number of elective procedures and/or patient visits, while others experienced limited impact, or even saw improved cash flows from either increases in census or government funding.

As a result of the pandemic, the Company entered into deferral agreements with 18 tenants, with deferrals representing less than one percent of our annualized rent in the aggregate. Amounts due under the deferral agreements were generally repaid during 2020, however, at September 30, 2021, there was approximately $17,000 remaining to be billed and paid during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. This interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2021. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may materially differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified $20,000 and $40,000, respectively, of deferred income taxes from General and administrative expense to Deferred income tax expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income to conform to the current period presentation.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents includes short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. Restricted cash consists of amounts held by the lender of our mortgage note payable to provide for future real estate tax, insurance expenditures and tenant improvements related to one property. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash:
 Balance as of September 30,
(Dollars in thousands)20212020
Cash and cash equivalents$1,641 $12,158 
Restricted cash456 340 
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash$2,097 $12,498 

Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company and one subsidiary have also elected for that subsidiary to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), which is subject to federal and state income taxes. No provision has been made for federal income taxes for the REIT; however, the Company has recorded income tax expense or benefit for the TRS to the extent applicable. The Company also evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and will record valuation allowances if it is determined that more likely than not the asset will not be recovered. The Company intends at all times to qualify as a REIT under the Code. The Company must distribute at least 90% per annum of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP) and meet other requirements to continue to qualify as a REIT.

New Accounting Pronouncements
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

Note 3. Real Estate Leases

Lessor Accounting
The Company’s properties are generally leased pursuant to non-cancelable, fixed-term operating leases with expiration dates through 2039. The Company’s leases generally require the lessee to pay minimum rent, with fixed rent renewal terms or increases based on a Consumer Price Index and may also include additional rent, which may include the reimbursement of taxes (including property taxes), insurance, maintenance and other operating costs associated with the leased property.

Some leases provide the lessee, during the term of the lease, with an option or right of first refusal to purchase the leased property. Some leases also allow the lessee to renew or extend their lease term or in some cases terminate their lease, based on conditions provided in the lease.

Future minimum lease payments under the non-cancelable operating leases due to the Company for the years ending December 31, as of September 30, 2021, are as follows (in thousands):
2021 (three months ending December 31)$18,931

202464,759 
202559,505 
2026 and thereafter380,747 
$667,132 

Rental income is recognized as earned over the life of the lease agreement on a straight-line basis when collection of rental payments over the term of the lease is probable. Straight-line rent included in rental income was approximately $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and was approximately $2.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Lessee Accounting
At September 30, 2021, the Company was obligated, as the lessee, under five non-prepaid ground leases with expiration dates, including renewal options, through 2085. Any rental increases related to the Company's ground leases are generally either stated or based on the Consumer Price Index. The Company's future lease payments under these non-prepaid ground leases were as follows:

Note 4. Real Estate Acquisitions and Dispositions

2021 Real Estate Acquisitions
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company acquired two real estate properties. Upon acquisition, the properties were 100% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations through 2026. Amounts reflected in revenues and net income for these properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were approximately $0.2 million and $45,000, respectively, and transaction costs totaling approximately $0.2 million were capitalized relating to these property acquisitions.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company acquired two real estate properties. Upon acquisition, the properties were approximately 89.6% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations through 2028. Amounts reflected in revenues and net income for these properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were approximately $0.6 million and $11,000, respectively, and transaction costs totaling approximately $0.2 million were capitalized relating to these property acquisitions. The Company assumed a ground lease on the medical office building in Pittsburgh, PA. The ground lease will be accounted for as a financing lease, and the Company recorded a $1.9 million right-of-use asset, included in Other assets, net, and a $3.0 million lease liability, included in Other liabilities, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Payments due under the ground lease are reimbursable by the tenants. The ground lease expires on December 31, 2085, including three renewal options.

During the first quarter of 2021, the Company acquired six real estate properties. Upon acquisition, the properties were 100% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations through 2036. Amounts reflected in revenues and net income for these properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were approximately $4.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, and transaction costs totaling approximately $0.3 million were capitalized relating to these property acquisitions. Concurrent with the acquisitions, the Company entered into term and revolver loans with the tenant on two of these properties. See Note 10 for more details on these loans.

On March 19, 2021, Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated, as borrower, entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement (the “Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders, under which Truist Bank serves as administrative agent. The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 29, 2017, by and among the Company’s operating partnership, Community Healthcare OP, LP, several banks and financial institutions party

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
thereto as lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”), and SunTrust Bank (the predecessor in interest to Truist Bank), as the administrative agent. The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement allows the Company to borrow, through the accordion feature, up to $600.0 million, including the ability to add and fund incremental term loans (the “Credit Facility”). The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement extended the revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") maturity to March 19, 2026, removed collateral security provisions, repaid the five-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million (the "A-1 Term Loan") which was set to mature on March 29, 2022, entered into a new seven-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million (the "A-4 Term Loan"), which matures on March 19, 2028, provides the Company the ability to apply lower margins to its annual interest rate after it obtains an investment grade rating of BBB-/Baa3 (or the equivalent) from a rating agency, and modified its debt covenants.

The Credit Facility, as amended, provides for a $150.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and $250.0 million in term loans (the "Term Loans"). The Credit Facility, through the accordion feature, allows borrowings up to a total of $600.0 million including the ability to add and fund additional term loans. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 19, 2026 and includes one 12-month option to extend the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Term Loans include a seven-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million (the "A-2 Term Loan"), which matures on March 29, 2024, a seven-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million (the "A-3 Term Loan"), which matures on March 29, 2026, and the A-4 Term Loan in the aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million, which matures on March 19, 2028.

Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, as amended, bear annual interest at a floating rate that is based, at the Company’s option, on either: (i) LIBOR plus 1.25% to 1.90% or (ii) a base rate plus 0.25% to 0.90% in each case, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay an annual fee equal to 0.20% of the amount of the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility if amounts borrowed are greater than 33.3% of the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility and 0.25% of the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility if amounts borrowed are less than or equal to 33.3% of the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company had $4.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and had a borrowing capacity remaining of $146.0 million at September 30, 2021.

Amounts outstanding under the Term Loans, as amended, bear annual interest at a floating rate that is based, at the Company’s option, on either: (i) LIBOR plus 1.45% to 2.30% or (ii) a base rate plus 0.45% to 1.30%, in each case, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company has entered into interest rate swaps to fix the interest rates on the Term Loans. See Note 6 for more details on the interest rate swaps. At September 30, 2021, the Company had $250.0 million outstanding under the Term Loans which had a fixed weighted average interest rate under the swaps of approximately 3.95%.

The Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations with respect to liens, indebtedness, distributions, mergers, consolidations, investments, restricted payments and asset sales, as well as financial maintenance covenants. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Facility as of September 30, 2021.

Note 6. Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for speculative or other purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative
15

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company and its affiliates may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of the counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had fourteen outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk for notional amounts totaling $250.0 million, including four forward-starting interest rate swaps for notional amounts totaling $50.0 million, which will not become effective until March 31, 2022.

Tabular Disclosure of Fair Value of Derivative Instruments on the Balance Sheet
The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Interest rate swaps$— $— Other assets, net$8,269 $11,846 Other liabilities, net

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCI") and are subsequently reclassified to interest expense in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s Term Loans. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that an additional $4.3 million will be reclassified from AOCI as an increase to interest expense.

The Company's notes receivable mainly included:

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, notes receivable included a $13.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, term loan, secured by all assets and ownership interests in seven long-term acute care hospitals and one inpatient rehabilitation hospital owned by the borrower. The term loan will be repaid in equal monthly installments of $250,000 through the maturity date of December 31, 2025 and bears interest at 9% per annum.

At September 30, 2021, notes receivable included a $6.0 million term loan and a $7.0 million revolving credit facility, secured by assets and ownership interests of six geriatric behavioral hospitals and affiliated companies all of which are co-borrowers on the loans. The term loan bears interest at 9% per annum, with interest only payments due for the first year and then equal monthly installments of principal payments due beginning June 30, 2022. The term loan facility matures on July 1, 2027. The revolving credit facility bears interest at 9% per annum and matures on December 31, 2025. These notes were amended during the second and third quarters of 2021 which resulted in increasing the revolving credit facility commitment from $4.0 million to $7.0 million and then reducing the commitment to $4.0 million by July 1, 2022, extending the first installment payment on the term loan by one quarter, and adding additional fees due on the loans upon repayment. In addition, the Company has committed to fund, at the Company’s discretion, additional amounts, up to $5.0 million with interest at 9% per annum on any amount funded, that may be used by the borrower to pay existing liabilities of co-borrowers. The term loan, the revolving credit facility and the additional commitment all include 3% non-cash interest that is due and payable upon the earlier of the repayment or maturity of each note.

The Company identified the borrowers of these notes as variable interest entities ("VIEs"), but management determined that the Company was not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs because we lack either directly or through related parties any material impact in the activities that impact the borrowers' economic performance. We are not obligated to provide support beyond our stated commitment to the borrowers, and accordingly our maximum

Note 12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate the fair value.

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash - The carrying amount approximates the fair value.

Notes receivable - The fair value is estimated using cash flow analyses, based on an assumed market rate of interest or at a rate consistent with the rates on notes carried by the Company and are classified as level 2 in the hierarchy.

Borrowings under our Credit Facility - The carrying amount approximates the fair value because the borrowings are based on variable market interest rates.

Derivative financial instruments - The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow techniques. These techniques incorporate primarily level 2 inputs. The market inputs are utilized in the discounted cash flow calculation considering the instrument’s term, notional amount, discount rate and credit risk. Significant inputs to the derivative valuation model for interest rate swaps are observable in active markets and are classified as level 2 in the hierarchy.

Mortgage note payable - The fair value is estimated using cash flow analyses which are based on an assumed market rate of interest or at a rate consistent with the rates on mortgage notes assumed by the Company and are classified as level 2 in the hierarchy.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This report and other materials that Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (the "Company") has filed or may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made, or to be made, by management of the Company, contain, or will contain, statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes”, “expects”, “may”, “should”, “seeks”, “approximately”, “intends”, “plans”, “estimates”, “anticipates” or other similar words or expressions, including the negative thereof. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and can include future expectations, future plans and strategies, financial and operating projections or other forward-looking information. Such forward-looking statements reflect management’s current beliefs and are based on information currently available to management. Because forward-looking statements relate to future events, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Thus, the Company’s actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements. Some factors that might cause such a difference include the following: general volatility of the capital markets and the market price of the Company’s common stock, changes in the Company’s business strategy, availability, terms and deployment of capital, the Company’s ability to refinance existing indebtedness at or prior to maturity on favorable terms, or at all, changes in the real estate industry in general, interest rates or the general economy, adverse developments related to the healthcare industry, the degree and nature of the Company’s competition, the ability to consummate acquisitions under contract, effects on global and national markets as well as businesses resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the other factors described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
Real estate acquisitions
During the first nine months of 2021, the Company acquired ten real estate properties totaling approximately 275,000 square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $78.6 million and cash consideration of approximately $78.2 million. Upon acquisition, the properties were approximately 98.8% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations through 2036. The Company also entered into a term loan and a revolver loan with balances at September 30, 2021 of $6.0 million and $7.0 million, respectively, with the tenant on two of these properties. These acquisitions were funded with cash on hand, proceeds from the Company's ATM Program, and proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details on these acquisitions.

Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Company acquired a 27,000 square foot medical office building for a purchase price and cash consideration of approximately $3.5 million. The property was 83.4% leased with lease expirations through 2030 at acquisition and was funded with cash on hand and proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility.

Acquisition Pipeline
The Company has three properties under definitive purchase agreements for an expected aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.2 million. The Company expects to close on these properties during the fourth quarter of 2021; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close. The Company expects to fund these acquisitions with cash on hand, proceeds from the Company's ATM Program, or proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility.

The Company also has four properties under definitive purchase agreements, to be acquired after completion and occupancy, for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $94.0 million. The Company's expected returns on these investments are approximately 10.25%. The Company anticipates closing on these properties from the first quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2023; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close.

Asset Held for Sale
Pursuant to the exercise of a purchase option by a tenant, the Company entered into a sales contract to dispose of a medical office building in Haleyville, Alabama during the first quarter of 2021. The Company expects to close on this transaction in the fourth quarter of 2021 and expects to recognize a gain on the sale. Assets held for sale totaling approximately $1.0 million are included in Other assets, net and Liabilities held for sale totaling $35,000 are included in Other liabilities, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021.

Leased square footage
As of September 30, 2021, our real estate portfolio was approximately 89.3% leased. During the first nine months of 2021, we had expiring or terminated leases related to approximately 143,000 square feet, and we leased or renewed leases relating to approximately 248,000 square feet.

COVID-19 pandemic
During 2020, the world was, and continues to be, impacted by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread impacted many healthcare providers, including some of our tenants. During 2020, some of them were not seeing patients, others saw a reduced number of elective procedures and/or patient visits, while others experienced limited impact, or even saw improved cash flows from either increases in census or government funding.
During 2020, as a result of the pandemic, the Company entered into deferral agreements with 18 tenants, with deferrals representing less than one percent of our annualized rent in the aggregate. Amounts due under the deferral agreements were generally repaid during 2020, however, at September 30, 2021, there was approximately $17,000 remaining to be billed and paid during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Results of Operations
The Company's results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 have most significantly been impacted by its real estate acquisitions. As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had investments in real estate properties totaling approximately $824.4 million (including a portion of one property accounted for as a financing lease with a gross amount totaling approximately $3.0 million and one property classified as held for sale with a gross amount totaling approximately $1.1 million) and $667.3 million, respectively.

Revenues
Revenues increased approximately $3.9 million, or 20.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 mainly due to acquisitions of real estate and interest on the issuance of new notes receivable.

Expenses
Property operating expenses increased approximately $0.5 million, or 13.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 mainly due to acquisitions of real estate.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
General and administrative expenses increased approximately $1.0 million, or 46.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due mainly to compensation-related expenses related to new employees and annual salary increases and stock issuances totaling approximately $0.9 million, including the non-cash amortization of non-vested restricted common shares of approximately $0.7 million which includes $0.2 million of accelerated amortization due to the elimination of a position and employee terminations in the third quarter of 2021.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $1.5 million, or 24.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. Acquisitions accounted for an increase of approximately $1.6 million, offset by a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in amortization due to fully amortized real estate lease intangibles which generally have a shorter depreciable life than a building. The remaining increase is generally due to the depreciation of building and tenant improvements.

Interest expense
Interest expense increased approximately $0.7 million, or 35.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due mainly to the refinancing of the Credit Facility in March 2021 as discussed in Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
Property operating expenses increased approximately $1.5 million, or 14.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 mainly due to acquisitions of real estate.

General and administrative expenses increased approximately $2.7 million, or 42.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due mainly to compensation-related expenses related to new employees and annual salary increases and stock issuances totaling approximately $2.5 million, including the non-cash amortization of non-vested restricted common shares of approximately $1.8 million which includes $0.2 million of accelerated amortization due to the elimination of a position and employee terminations in the third quarter of 2021.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $4.1 million, or 22.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. Acquisitions accounted for an increase of approximately $4.8 million, offset by a decrease of approximately $1.1 million in amortization due to fully amortized real estate lease intangibles which generally have a shorter depreciable life than a building. The remaining increase is generally due to the depreciation of building and tenant improvements.

Loss on sale of real estate
During the second quarter of 2020, the Company sold a land parcel related to one of its properties for approximately
$0.3 million and recognized a loss on sale of approximately $0.3 million.

Interest expense
Interest expense increased approximately $1.3 million, or 19.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to the refinancing of the Credit Facility in March 2021 as discussed in Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators
Management considers certain non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators to be useful supplemental measures of the Company's operating performance. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable measure determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company reports non-GAAP financial measures because these measures are observed by management to also be among the most predominant measures used by the REIT industry and by industry analysts to evaluate REITs. For these reasons, management deems it appropriate to disclose and discuss these non-GAAP financial measures. Set forth below are descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures management considers relevant to the Company's business and useful to investors, as well as reconciliations of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

The non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators presented herein are not necessarily identical to those presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income, as indicators of the Company's financial performance, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as measures of the Company's liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs. Management believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company's historical consolidated operating results, these measures should be examined in conjunction with net income and cash flows from operations as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and other financial data included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO")
FFO and FFO per share are operating performance measures adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as the most commonly accepted and reported measure of a REIT’s operating performance equal to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or
27

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate properties, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. NAREIT also provides REITs with an option to exclude gains, losses and impairments of assets that are incidental to the main business of the REIT from the calculation of FFO.

In addition to FFO, the Company presents AFFO and AFFO per share. The Company defines AFFO as FFO, excluding certain expenses related to closing costs of properties acquired accounted for as business combinations and mortgages funded, excluding straight-line rent and the amortization of stock-based compensation, and including or excluding other non-cash items from time to time. AFFO presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition.

Management believes that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, management believes FFO, AFFO, FFO per share and AFFO per share provide an understanding of the operating performance of the Company’s properties without giving effect to certain significant non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization expense. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The Company believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairments and gains or losses from sales of real estate, losses and impairment of incidental assets, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO, AFFO, FFO per share and AFFO per share can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods.

The table below reconciles net income to FFO and AFFO for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

___________________
(1) Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for FFO and AFFO are calculated based on the treasury method, rather than the 2-class method used to calculate earnings per share.

Net Operating Income ("NOI")
NOI is a key performance indicator. NOI is defined as net income or loss, computed in accordance with GAAP, generated from our total portfolio of properties and other investments before general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, gains or loss on the sale of real estate properties or other investments, interest expense, and income tax expense. We believe that NOI provides an accurate measure of operating performance of our operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with management of the properties. The Company's use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing NOI.

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre
The Company uses the NAREIT definition of EBITDAre which is net income plus interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, plus losses or minus gains on the disposition of depreciable property, including losses/gains on change of control, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciable property in the affiliate, plus or minus adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates and consolidated affiliates with non-controlling interest. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDAre which is EBITDAre before non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

We consider EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre important measures because they provide additional information to allow management, investors, and our current and potential creditors to evaluate and compare our core operating results and our ability to service debt.

The table below reconciles net income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company monitors its liquidity and capital resources and relies on several key indicators in its assessment of capital markets for financing acquisitions and other operating activities as needed, including the following:

Leverage ratios and financial covenants included in our Credit Facility;

Dividend payout percentage; and
29

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued

Interest rates, underlying treasury rates, debt market spreads and equity markets.

The Company uses these indicators and others to compare its operations to its peers and to help identify areas in which the Company may need to focus its attention.

Sources and Uses of Cash
The Company derives most of its revenues from its real estate properties. Our rental income represents our primary source of liquidity to fund our dividends, general and administrative expenses, property operating expenses, interest expense on our Credit Facility, and other expenses incurred related to managing our existing portfolio. To the extent additional resources are needed, the Company will fund its investment activity generally through equity or debt issuances either in the public or private markets or through proceeds from our Credit Facility.

The Company expects to meet its liquidity needs through cash on hand, cash flows from operations and cash flows from sources discussed above. The Company believes that its liquidity and sources of capital are adequate to satisfy its cash requirements. The Company cannot, however, be certain that these sources of funds will be available at a time and upon terms acceptable to the Company in sufficient amounts to meet its liquidity needs.

The Company's Credit Facility, as amended, provides for a $150.0 million Revolving Credit Facility that matures on March 19, 2026 and includes one 12-month option to extend the maturity date, and $250.0 million in Term Loans, as well as an accordion feature which allows borrowings up to a total of $600.0 million, including the ability to add and fund additional term loans. Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements provides more details on the Company's Credit Facility. At September 30, 2021, the Company had borrowing capacity remaining under the Revolving Credit Facility of approximately $146.0 million.

The Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations with respect to liens, indebtedness, distributions, mergers, consolidations, investments, restricted payments and asset sales, as well as financial maintenance covenants. Also, the Company’s current financing policy prohibits aggregate debt (secured or unsecured) in excess of 40% of the Company's total capitalization, except for short-term, transitory periods. At September 30, 2021, our debt to total capitalization ratio (debt plus stockholders' equity plus accumulated depreciation) was approximately 30.5%. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Facility as of September 30, 2021.

The Company also had outstanding at September 30, 2021, a $5.1 million mortgage note payable, secured by one of its properties, with a maturity date in 2024 and a fixed interest rate of 4.98%.

Subsequent Acquisitions
Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Company acquired a 27,000 square foot medical office building for a purchase price and cash consideration of approximately $3.5 million. The property was 83.4% leased with lease expirations through 2030 at acquisition and was funded with cash on hand and proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility.

Acquisition Pipeline
The Company has three properties under definitive purchase agreements for an expected aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.2 million. The Company expects to close on these properties during the fourth quarter of 2021; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close. The Company expects to fund these acquisitions with cash on hand, proceeds from the Company's ATM Program, or proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility.

30

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
The Company also has four properties under definitive purchase agreements, to be acquired after completion and occupancy, for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $94.0 million. The Company's expected returns on these investments are approximately 10.25%. The Company anticipates closing on these properties from the first quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2023; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close.

Asset Held for Sale
Pursuant to the exercise of a purchase option by a tenant, the Company entered into a sales contract to dispose of a medical office building in Haleyville, Alabama during the first quarter of 2021. The Company expects to close on this transaction in the fourth quarter of 2021 and expects to recognize a gain on the sale. Assets held for sale totaling approximately $1.0 million are included in Other assets, net and Liabilities held for sale totaling $35,000 are included in Other liabilities, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021.

Other Contractual Obligations
Subject to Company approval, we may fund or reimburse tenants for tenant improvements, which are allowed for in certain leases, of up to approximately $7.7 million as of September 30, 2021.

The Company has also entered into contracts regarding certain capital expenditures totaling approximately $1.8 million as of September 30, 2021. Reimbursement of these expenditures by our tenants will be determined by each tenant's lease.

The Company has ground lease obligations relating to five properties, with total obligations of approximately $7.6 million with maturities through 2085, including renewals.

The Company expects to fund these obligations with cash on hand, proceeds from the Company's ATM Program, proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility, or other debt or equity offerings.

Automatic Shelf Registration Statement
On November 5, 2019, the Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The registration statement is for an indeterminate number of securities and is effective for three years. Under this registration statement, the Company has the capacity to offer and sell from time to time various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, depository shares, rights, debt securities, warrants and units.

Operating Activities
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were approximately $41.4 million and $35.8 million, respectively. Cash flows provided by operating activities were generally provided by contractual rents, net of expenses, on our real estate property portfolio.

Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were approximately $93.1 million and $57.5 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company invested in 10 properties for an aggregate cash consideration of approximately $78.2 million and funded notes totaling approximately $13.4 million. Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company received payments on its notes totaling $3.0 million and funded capital expenditures on its existing portfolio totaling approximately $4.5 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company invested in 13 properties for an aggregate cash consideration of approximately $58.9 million and acquired a $2.5 million note receivable for $1.9 million. Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company received payments on its notes receivable totaling $7.8 million and funded capital expenditures on its existing portfolio totaling approximately $4.7 million.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
Financing Activities
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were approximately $51.0 million and $32.2 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company repaid $29.0 million under its Credit Facility, entered into an amended and restated credit facility in which the Company entered into a 7-year term loan facility totaling $125.0 million, repaid a $50.0 million term loan facility, and incurred $1.6 million in additional debt issuance costs. The Company also sold shares under its ATM Program and received proceeds of approximately $38.4 million, and paid dividends totaling $31.5 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company repaid $15.0 million under its Credit Facility, sold shares under its ATM Program and received proceeds of approximately $75.5 million, and paid dividends totaling $28.0 million.

Security Deposits
As of September 30, 2021, the Company held approximately $4.4 million in security deposits for the benefit of the Company in the event the obligated tenant fails to perform under the terms of its respective lease. Generally, the Company may, at its discretion and upon notification to the tenant, draw upon the security deposits if there are any defaults under the leases.

Dividends
The Company is required to pay dividends to its stockholders at least equal to 90% of its taxable income in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT.

On October 28, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend in the amount of $0.4350 per share. The dividend is payable on November 26, 2021 to stockholders of record on November 12, 2021. This rate equates to an annualized dividend of $1.74 per share.

The ability of the Company to pay dividends is dependent upon its ability to generate cash flows and to make accretive new investments.

Corporate Responsibility
The Company is committed to conducting its business according to the highest ethical standards and upholding its corporate responsibilities as a public company operating for the benefit of its stockholders.

The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted a revised Code of Ethics and Business Conduct that not only applies to its directors, officers, and other employees but also extends the Company's expectations that its vendors, service providers, contractors, and consultants will embrace the Company's commitment to integrity and personal responsibility by complying with this Code at all times. The Code of Ethics and Business Conduct includes the Company’s commitment to promote high standards of integrity by conducting its affairs honestly and ethically and to include in its periodic reports or other publicly available documents information and metrics related to internal monitoring, whistleblower, or reporting systems.

The Company’s whistleblower policy prohibits the Company and its affiliates and their officers, employees and agents from discharging, demoting, suspending, threatening, harassing or in any other manner discriminating against any employee for raising a concern. If an employee desires to raise a concern in a confidential or anonymous manner, the concern may be directed to the whistleblower officer at the Company’s whistleblower hotline. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the whistleblower officer received no whistleblower complaints.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We may use certain derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. We will not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit rating and other factors. An interest rate swap is a contractual agreement entered into by two counterparties under which each agrees to make periodic payments to the other for an agreed period of time based on a notional amount of principal. Under the most common form of interest rate swap, known from our perspective as a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap, a series of floating, or variable, rate payments on a notional amount of principal is exchanged for a series of fixed interest rate payments on such notional amount. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there were no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
