NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2016
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Organization
Healthcare Trust, Inc. (including, as required by context, Healthcare Trust Operating Partnership, LP (the "OP") and its subsidiaries, the "Company") invests in healthcare real estate, such as seniors housing and medical office buildings ("MOB"), located in the United States for investment purposes. As of March 31, 2016, the Company owned 166 properties located in 29 states and comprised of 8.5 million rentable square feet.
The Company, which was incorporated on October 15, 2012, is a Maryland corporation that elected and qualified to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes ("REIT") beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. Substantially all of the Company's business is conducted through the OP.
In February 2013, the Company commenced its initial public offering (the "IPO") on a "reasonable best efforts" basis of up to $1.7 billion of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a price of $25.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts. The Company closed its IPO in November 2014. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had received $2.2 billion from its IPO including proceeds received under the distribution reinvestment plan ("DRIP").
In 2015, the Company’s board of directors determined that it was in the Company’s best interest to evaluate strategic alternatives, including a listing on a national securities exchange. The Company's board of directors, led by its independent directors, announced in April 2016 that it had initiated a strategic review process to identify, examine, and consider a range of strategic alternatives available to the Company with the objective of maximizing shareholder value. See Note 16 — Subsequent Events — Review of Strategic Alternatives.
On April 11, 2016 (the "NAV Pricing Date"), the Company's board of directors approved an estimate of per share net asset value ("NAV"). Subsequent valuations will occur periodically, at the discretion of the Company's board of directors, provided that such calculations will be made at least annually. Pursuant to the DRIP, the Company's stockholders can elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of the Company's common stock. Prior to the NAV Pricing Date, the Company offered shares pursuant to the DRIP at $23.75 per share, which was 95% of the initial offering price of shares of common stock in the IPO. Effective April 11, 2016, the Company began offering shares pursuant to the DRIP at the then-current NAV approved by the Company's board of directors (see Note 8 — Common Stock).
The Company has no employees. Healthcare Trust Advisors, LLC (the "Advisor") has been retained by the Company to manage the Company's affairs on a day-to-day basis. The Company has retained Healthcare Trust Properties, LLC (the "Property Manager") to serve as the Company's property manager. The Advisor and Property Manager are under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (the successor business to AR Capital, LLC, "AR Global"), the parent of the Company's sponsor, American Realty Capital VII, LLC (the "Sponsor"), as a result of which they are related parties, and each have received or will receive compensation, fees and expense reimbursements from the Company for services related to managing its business. The Advisor, Healthcare Trust Special Limited Partnership, LLC (the "Special Limited Partner") and Property Manager also have received or will receive compensation, fees and expense reimbursements related to the investment and management of the Company's assets.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein were 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. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information furnished includes all adjustments and accruals of a normal recurring nature, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or any subsequent interim period.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2016. There have been no significant changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2016 other than the updates described below.

Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts within rental income, resident services and fee income, cash flows from operating activities and cash flows from financing activities have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint venture arrangements in which the Company has controlling financial interests. The portions of the consolidated joint venture arrangements not owned by the Company are presented as non-controlling interests as of and during the period consolidated. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company evaluates its relationships and investments to determine if it has variable interests. A variable interest is an investment or other interest that will absorb portions of an entity's expected losses or receive portions of the entity's expected residual returns. If the Company determines that it has a variable interest in an entity, it evaluates whether such interest is in a variable interest entity ("VIE"). A VIE is broadly defined as an entity where either (1) the equity investors as a group, if any, lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance or (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company consolidates any VIEs when it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE's operations.
A variable interest holder is considered to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE if it has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company qualitatively assesses whether it is (or is not) the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Consideration of various factors include, but are not limited to, the Company's ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, its form of ownership interest, its representation on the entity's governing body, the size and seniority of its investment, its ability and the rights of other investors to participate in policy making decisions and to replace the manager of and/or liquidate the entity.
The Company continually evaluates the need to consolidate joint ventures based on standards set forth in GAAP. In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, power to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members as well as whether the entity is a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities are held by the OP.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued revised guidance relating to revenue recognition. Under the revised guidance, an entity is required to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The revised guidance was to become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption was not permitted under GAAP. The revised guidance allows entities to apply the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method upon adoption. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the revised guidance by one year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, although entities will be allowed to early adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
In January 2015, the FASB issued updated guidance that eliminates from GAAP the concept of an event or transaction that is unusual in nature and occurs infrequently being treated as an extraordinary item. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Any amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption was permitted provided that the guidance was applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance as of September 30, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
In February 2015, the FASB amended the accounting for consolidation of certain legal entities. The amendments modify the evaluation of whether certain legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities, eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership and affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs (particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships). The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company has elected to adopt this guidance effective January 1, 2016. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and has determined that the OP is considered a VIE. However, the Company meets the disclosure exemption criteria as the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the Company’s partnership interest in a business and the assets of the OP can be used for purposes other than settling its obligations, such as paying distributions. As such, this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB amended the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet. The amendment requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. In August 2015, the FASB added that, for line of credit arrangements, the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line, regardless of whether or not there are any outstanding borrowings. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was permitted for financial statements that have not previously been issued. The Company has elected to adopt this guidance effective January 1, 2016. The adoption of this revised guidance resulted in the reclassification of $2.0 million and $2.2 million of deferred financing costs related to the Company's mortgage notes payable from deferred costs, net to mortgage notes payable, net of deferred financing costs in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
In September 2015, the FASB issued an update that eliminates the requirement to adjust provisional amounts from a business combination and the related impact on earnings by restating prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments. The new guidance requires that the cumulative impact of measurement period adjustments on current and prior periods, including the prior period impact on depreciation, amortization and other income statement items and their related tax effects, shall be recognized in the period the adjustment amount is determined. The cumulative adjustment would be reflected within the respective financial statement line items affected. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was permitted. The Company elected to adopt this guidance as of September 30, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact to the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In January 2016, the FASB issued an update that amends the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance revises an entity’s accounting related to equity investments and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. Among other things, it also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted for most of the amendments in the update. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
In February 2016, the FASB issued an update that sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. The revised guidance is effective on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance which requires an entity to determine whether the nature of its promise to provide goods or services to a customer is performed in a principal or agent capacity and to recognize revenue in a gross or net manner based on its principal/agent designation. This guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.

In March 2016, the FASB issued an update that changes the accounting for certain aspects of share-based compensation. Among other things, the revised guidance allows companies to make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. The revised guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted the provisions of this guidance beginning January 1, 2016 and determined that there is no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company did not have any tenants (including for this purpose, all affiliates of such tenants) whose annualized rental income on a straight-line basis represented 10% or greater of total annualized rental income for the portfolio on a straight-line basis.
The following table lists the states where the Company had concentrations of properties where annualized rental income on a straight-line basis represented 10% or more of consolidated annualized rental income on a straight-line basis for all properties as of March 31, 2016 and 2015:

Note 4 — Investment Securities
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had investment securities with an aggregate fair value of $1.1 million. These investments are considered available-for-sale securities and, therefore, increases or decreases in the fair value of these investments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets unless the securities are considered to be other than temporarily impaired, at which time the losses would be reclassified to expense.
The following table details the unrealized gains and losses on investment securities as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015:
(In thousands) | Cost | Gross Unrealized Gains | Gross Unrealized Losses | Fair Value | ||||||||||||

December 31, 2015 | ||||||||||||||||
Equity securities | $ | 1,084 | $ | 19 | $ | (25 | ) | $ | 1,078 |
The Company's investments in preferred stock have not been in a continuous unrealized loss position during the last twelve months. The Company believes that the decline in fair value is a factor of current market conditions and, as such, considers the unrealized losses as of March 31, 2016 to be temporary. Therefore no impairment was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company sold certain of its investments in preferred stock and its investment in a senior note with a cost of $3.9 million for $4.2 million which resulted in a realized gain on sale of investment of $0.3 million. No investment securities were sold by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
The Company's preferred stock investments, with an aggregate fair value of $1.1 million as of March 31, 2016, are redeemable at the respective issuer's option five years after issuance.
Note 5 — Revolving Credit Facility
On March 21, 2014, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility in the amount of $50.0 million (the "Credit Facility"). On April 15, 2014 the amount available under the Credit Facility was increased to $200.0 million.
On June 26, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Facility which, among other things, allowed for borrowings of up to $500.0 million. On July 31, 2015, the available borrowings were increased to $565.0 million. The Credit Facility also contains a subfacility for letters of credit of up to $25.0 million. The Credit Facility contains an "accordion" feature to allow the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the aggregate borrowings under the Credit Facility to a maximum of $750.0 million.

The Company has the option, based upon its leverage, to have the Credit Facility priced at either: (a) LIBOR, plus an applicable margin that ranges from 1.60% to 2.20%; or (b) the Base Rate, plus an applicable margin that ranges from 0.35% to 0.95%. Base Rate is defined in the Credit Facility as the greater of (i) the fluctuating annual rate of interest announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate,” (ii) 0.5% above the federal funds effective rate or (iii) the applicable one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%.
The Credit Facility provides for monthly interest payments for each Base Rate loan and periodic payments for each LIBOR loan, based upon the applicable LIBOR loan period, with all principal outstanding being due on the maturity date of March 21, 2019. The Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (subject to standard breakage costs). In the event of a default, the lender has the right to terminate its obligations under the Credit Facility and to accelerate the payment on any unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans.
As of March 31, 2016, the balance outstanding under the Credit Facility was $460.0 million, with an effective interest rate of 2.7%. The Company's unused borrowing capacity was $105.0 million, based on assets assigned to the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2016. Availability of borrowings is based on a pool of eligible unencumbered real estate assets. There was $430.0 million in advances outstanding as of December 31, 2015.
The Credit Facility requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios (such as specified debt to equity and debt service coverage ratios) as well as the maintenance of a minimum net worth. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

Note 7 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.
The Company has or had investments in common stock, redeemable preferred stock, real estate income funds and a senior note that are traded in active markets and therefore, due to the availability of quoted market prices in active markets, the Company has classified these investments as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivable for sale of common stock, straight-line rent receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, deferred costs, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred rent and distributions payable approximates their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature. The fair values of the Company's remaining financial instruments that are not reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are reported below:

The fair value of the mortgage notes payable is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Advisor's experience with similar types of borrowing arrangements. Advances under the Credit Facility are considered to be reported at fair value, because the Credit Facility's interest rate varies with changes in LIBOR.
Note 8 — Common Stock
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had 86.9 million and 86.1 million shares of common stock outstanding, respectively, including unvested restricted shares and shares issued pursuant to the DRIP and had received total proceeds of $2.2 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, including proceeds from shares issued pursuant to the DRIP.
In April 2013, the Company's board of directors authorized, and the Company declared, a distribution payable on a monthly basis to stockholders of record on a daily basis at a rate equal to $0.0046575343 per day, which is equivalent to $1.70 per annum, per share of common stock, which began in May 2013. In March 2016, the Company's board of directors ratified the existing distribution amount equivalent to $1.70 per annum, and, for calendar year 2016, affirmed a change to the daily distribution payable to stockholders of record each day during the applicable period to $0.0046448087 per day per share of common stock to accurately reflect that 2016 is a leap year. Distributions are payable by the 5th day following each month end to stockholders of record at the close of business each day during the prior month. Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The Company's board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time and therefore distribution payments are not assured.
Share Repurchase Program
The Company's board of directors has adopted a Share Repurchase Program (as amended, the "SRP") which enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company in limited circumstances. The SRP permits investors to sell their shares back to the Company after they have held them for at least one year, subject to the significant conditions and limitations described below.

Prior to the time that the Company’s shares are listed on a national securities exchange and until the NAV Pricing Date (other than with respect to a repurchase request that is made in connection with a stockholder's death or disability), the repurchase price per share depends on the length of time investors have held such shares, as follows: after one year from the purchase date — the lower of $23.13 or 92.5% of the amount they actually paid for each share; after two years from the purchase date — the lower of $23.75 or 95.0% of the amount they actually paid for each share; after three years from the purchase date — the lower of $24.38 or 97.5% of the amount they actually paid for each share; and after four years from the purchase date — the lower of $25.00 or 100.0% of the amount they actually paid for each share (in each case, as adjusted for any stock distributions, combinations, splits and recapitalizations). In cases of requests for death and disability, the repurchase price will be equal to the price actually paid for each share.
In accordance with the SRP Amendment (described below) and beginning with the NAV Pricing Date, the price per share that the Company will pay to repurchase its shares will be equal to its NAV multiplied by a percentage equal to (i) 92.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than one year and less than two years; (ii) 95.0%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than two years and less than three years; (iii) 97.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than three years and less than four years; or (iv) 100.0%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than four years. In cases of requests for death and disability, the repurchase prices will be equal to NAV at the time of repurchase. Subject to limited exceptions, stockholders who redeem their shares of our common stock within the first four months from the date of purchase will be subject to a short-term trading fee of 2% of the aggregate NAV per share of the shares of common stock received.
Repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock, when requested, are at the sole discretion of the board of directors. Until the SRP Amendment (described below), the Company limited the number of shares repurchased during any calendar year to 5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding on December 31st of the previous calendar year. In addition, the Company was only authorized to repurchase shares in a given quarter up to the amount of proceeds received from its DRIP in that same quarter.
On January 26, 2016, the Company's board of directors approved and amended the SRP (the "SRP Amendment") to supersede and replace the existing SRP. Under the SRP Amendment, repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock, when requested, are at the sole discretion of the Company's board of directors and generally will be made semiannually (each six-month period ending June 30 or December 31, a “fiscal semester”). Repurchases for any fiscal semester will be limited to a maximum of 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year, with a maximum for any fiscal year of 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year. In addition, the Company is only authorized to repurchase shares in a given fiscal semester up to the amount of proceeds received from its DRIP in that same fiscal semester. If the NAV Pricing Date occurs during any fiscal semester, any repurchase requests received during such fiscal semester will be paid at the applicable NAV then in effect.
When a stockholder requests redemption and the redemption is approved, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares purchased under the SRP will have the status of authorized but unissued shares. The following table reflects the number of shares repurchased cumulatively through March 31, 2016:
Number of Shares Repurchased | Average Price per Share | ||||||
Cumulative repurchases as of December 31, 2015(1) | 968,370 | $ | 23.72 | ||||

Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Pursuant to the DRIP, stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased under the DRIP. Participants purchasing shares pursuant to the DRIP have the same rights and are treated in the same manner as if such shares were issued pursuant to the IPO. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from reinvestment pursuant to the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days' notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded as equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in the period distributions are declared.

Fees Paid in Connection with the IPO
The Former Dealer Manager was paid fees in connection with the sale of the Company's common stock in the IPO. The Company paid the Former Dealer Manager a selling commission of up to 7.0% of the per share purchase price of offering proceeds before reallowance of commissions earned by participating broker-dealers. In addition, the Company paid the Former Dealer Manager up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares, before reallowance to participating broker-dealers, as a dealer manager fee. The Former Dealer Manager was permitted to reallow its dealer manager fee to participating broker-dealers. A participating broker-dealer could elect to receive a fee equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares by such participating broker-dealer, with 2.5% thereof paid at the time of such sale and 1.0% thereof paid on each anniversary of the closing of such sale up to and including the fifth anniversary of the closing of such sale. If this option had been elected, the dealer manager fee would have been reduced to 2.5% of gross proceeds. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company received approximately $2,000 from the Former Dealer Manager for a unconsummated share transaction. The Company did not incur any commissions or fees in connection with the sale of the Company's common stock in the IPO from the Former Dealer Manager during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company did not have any amounts outstanding to the Former Dealer Manager for fees in connection with the sale of the Company's common stock in the IPO as of March 31, 2016 or December 31, 2015.
The Advisor and its affiliates received compensation and reimbursement for services relating to the IPO, including transfer agent services provided by an affiliate of the Former Dealer Manager. All offering costs incurred by the Company or its affiliated entities on behalf of the Company were charged to additional paid-in capital on the accompanying balance sheet during the IPO. The Company did not incur any charges or reimbursements for services relating to the IPO from the Advisor or any of its affiliates during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015. The Company did not have any amounts outstanding to the Advisor or any of its affiliates for charges or reimbursements for services relating to the IPO as of March 31, 2016 or December 31, 2015.
The Company was responsible for paying offering and related costs from the IPO, excluding commissions and dealer manager fees, up to a maximum of 2.0% of gross proceeds received from the IPO, measured at the end of the IPO. Offering costs, excluding selling commissions and dealer manager fees, in excess of the 2.0% cap as of the end of the IPO were to be the Advisor's responsibility. As of the end of the IPO, offering and related costs, excluding selling commissions and dealer manager fees, did not exceed 2.0% of gross proceeds received from the IPO. In aggregate, offering costs including selling commissions and dealer manager fees were the Company's responsibility up to a maximum of 12.0% of the gross proceeds received from the IPO as determined at the end of the IPO. As of the end of the IPO in November 2014, offering costs were less than 12.0% of the gross proceeds received in the IPO.
Fees Paid in Connection With the Operations of the Company
The Advisor is paid an acquisition fee equal to 1.0% of the contract purchase price of each acquired property and 1.0% of the amount advanced for a loan or other investment. The Advisor is also reimbursed for services provided for which it incurs investment-related expenses, or insourced expenses. The amount reimbursed for insourced expenses may not exceed 0.5% of the contract purchase price of each acquired property and 0.5% of the amount advanced for a loan or other investment. Additionally, the Company reimburses the Advisor for third party acquisition expenses. The aggregate amount of acquisition fees and financing coordination fees (as described below) may not exceed 1.5% of the contract purchase price and the amount advanced for a loan or other investment for all the assets acquired. In no event will the total of all acquisition fees, acquisition expenses and any financing coordination fees payable with respect to the Company's portfolio of investments or reinvestments exceed 4.5% of the contract purchase price of the Company's portfolio to be measured at the close of the acquisition phase or 4.5% of the amount advanced for all loans or other investments.
If the Advisor provides services in connection with the origination or refinancing of any debt that the Company obtains and uses to acquire properties or to make other permitted investments, or that is assumed, directly or indirectly, in connection with the acquisition of properties, the Company will pay the Advisor a financing coordination fee equal to 0.75% of the amount available and/or outstanding under such financing, subject to certain limitations.

Until March 31, 2015, for its asset management services, the Company issued the Advisor an asset management subordinated participation by causing the OP to issue (subject to periodic approval by the board of directors) to the Advisor performance-based restricted, forfeitable partnership units of the OP designated as "Class B Units." The Class B Units were intended to be profit interests and vest, and are no longer subject to forfeiture, at such time as: (x) the value of the OP's assets plus all distributions made equals or exceeds the total amount of capital contributed by investors plus a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return thereon (the "economic hurdle"); (y) any one of the following occurs: (1) a listing; (2) an other liquidity event or (3) the termination of the advisory agreement by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's independent directors without cause; and (z) the Advisor is still providing advisory services to the Company (the "performance condition"). Unvested Class B Units will be forfeited immediately if: (a) the advisory agreement is terminated for any reason other than a termination without cause; or (b) the advisory agreement is terminated by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's independent directors without cause before the economic hurdle has been met.
When approved by the board of directors, the Class B Units were issued to the Advisor quarterly in arrears pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement of the OP. The number of Class B Units issued in any quarter was equal to: (i) the excess of (A) the product of (y) the cost of assets multiplied by (z) 0.1875% over (B) any amounts payable as an oversight fee (as described below) for such calendar quarter; divided by (ii) the value of one share of common stock as of the last day of such calendar quarter, which is equal initially to $22.50 (the IPO price minus the selling commissions and dealer manager fees). The value of issued Class B Units will be determined and expensed when the Company deems the achievement of the performance condition to be probable. As of March 31, 2016, the Company cannot determine the probability of achieving the performance condition. The Advisor receives distributions on vested and unvested Class B Units equal to the distribution rate received on the Company's common stock. Such distributions on issued Class B Units are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss until the performance condition is considered probable to occur. As of March 31, 2016, the Company's board of directors had approved the issuance of 359,250 Class B Units to the Advisor in connection with this arrangement.
On May 12, 2015, the Company, the OP and the Advisor entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the advisory agreement, which, among other things, provides that the Company will cease causing the OP to issue Class B Units in the OP to the Advisor or its assignees related to any period ending after March 31, 2015. Effective April 1, 2015, the Company began paying an asset management fee to the Advisor or its assignees as compensation for services rendered in connection with the management of the Company’s assets. The asset management fee is payable on the first business day of each month in the amount of 0.0625% multiplied by the cost of assets for the preceding monthly period. The asset management fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash, in shares, or a combination of both, the form of payment to be determined in the sole discretion of the Advisor. For the purposes of the payment of any fees in shares (a) prior to the NAV Pricing Date, each share will be valued at $22.50, (b) after the NAV Pricing Date and prior to any listing on a national securities exchange, if it occurs, each share will be valued at the then-current NAV per share and (c) at all other times, each share shall be valued by the board of directors in good faith at the fair market value.
Unless the Company contracts with a third party, the Company pays the Property Manager a property management fee of 1.5% of gross revenues from the Company's stand-alone single-tenant net leased properties and 2.5% of gross revenues from all other types of properties, respectively. The Company also reimburses the Property Manager for property level expenses. If the Company contracts directly with third parties for such services, the Company will pay them customary market fees and will pay the Property Manager an oversight fee of up to 1.0% of the gross revenues of the property managed. In no event will the Company pay the Property Manager or any affiliate of the Property Manager both a property management fee and an oversight fee with respect to any particular property.
Effective June 1, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with the Former Dealer Manager to provide strategic advisory services and investment banking services required in the ordinary course of the Company's business, such as performing financial analysis, evaluating publicly traded comparable companies and assisting in developing a portfolio composition strategy, a capitalization structure to optimize future liquidity options and structuring operations. Strategic advisory fees were amortized over the estimated remaining term of the IPO and, as such, have been fully amortized as of December 31, 2014. The Former Dealer Manager and its affiliates also previously provided transfer agency services, as well as transaction management and other professional services. These fees were included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

(1) | Prior to April 1, 2015, the Company caused the OP to issue (subject to periodic approval by the board of directors) to the Advisor restricted performance based Class B Units for asset management services. As of March 31, 2016, the Company's board of directors had approved the issuance of 359,250 Class B Units to the Advisor in connection with this arrangement. Effective April 1, 2015, in connection with the Amendment, the Company will pay an asset management fee to the Advisor or its assignees in cash, in shares, or a combination of both and will no longer issue any Class B Units. |
The Company reimburses the Advisor's costs of providing administrative services, subject to the limitation that the Company did not reimburse the Advisor for any amount by which the Company's operating expenses at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeded the greater of (a) 2.0% of average invested assets and (b) 25.0% of net income other than any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debt or other similar non-cash expenses and excluding any gain from the sale of assets for that period (the "2%/25% Limitation"), unless the Company's independent directors determined that such excess was justified based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deemed sufficient, in which case the excess amount could be reimbursed to the Advisor in subsequent periods. Additionally, the Company reimburses the Advisor for personnel costs; however, the Company may not reimburse the Advisor for personnel costs in connection with services for which the Advisor receives acquisition fees, acquisition expenses or real estate commissions or for persons serving as executive officers of the Company. The 2%/25% Limitation was removed from the advisory agreement in connection with the amendment and restatement of to the advisory agreement in June 2015.
In order to improve operating cash flows and the ability to pay distributions from operating cash flows, the Advisor may elect to forgive and absorb certain fees. Because the Advisor may forgive or absorb certain fees, cash flow from operations that would have been paid to the Advisor may be available to pay distributions to stockholders. The fees that are forgiven are not deferrals and, accordingly, will not be paid to the Advisor in the future. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Advisor elected to forgive $0.6 million in fees. There were no such fees forgiven during the three months ended March 31, 2016. In certain instances, to improve the Company's working capital, the Advisor may elect to absorb a portion of the Company's property operating and general and administrative costs, which the Company will not repay. No such fees were absorbed during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.
The predecessor to AR Global is a party to a services agreement with RCS Advisory Services, LLC, a subsidiary of the parent company of the Former Dealer Manager (“RCS Advisory”), pursuant to which RCS Advisory and its affiliates provided the Company and certain other companies sponsored by AR Global with services (including, without limitation, transaction management, compliance, due diligence, event coordination and marketing services, among others) on a time and expenses incurred basis or at a flat rate based on services performed. The predecessor to AR Global instructed RCS Advisory to stop providing such services in November 2015 and no services have since been provided by RCS Advisory.

The Company was also party to a transfer agency agreement with ANST, a subsidiary of the parent company of the Former Dealer Manager, pursuant to which ANST provided the Company with transfer agency services (including broker and stockholder servicing, transaction processing, year-end IRS reporting and other services), and supervisory services overseeing the transfer agency services performed by DST Systems, Inc., a third-party transfer agent ("DST"). AR Global received written notice from ANST on February 10, 2016 that it would wind down operations by the end of the month and would withdraw as the transfer agent effective February 29, 2016. On February 26, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with DST to provide the Company directly with transfer agency services (including broker and stockholder servicing, transaction processing, year-end IRS reporting and other services).
Fees and Participations Paid in Connection with a Listing or the Liquidation of the Company's Real Estate Assets
Fees Incurred in Connection with a Listing
In 2015, the Company’s board of directors determined that it was in the Company’s best interest to evaluate strategic alternatives, including a listing on a national securities exchange. Accordingly, in March 2015, the Company formally engaged KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. ("KeyBanc") and RCS Capital ("RCS Capital"), the investment banking and capital markets division of the Former Dealer Manager, and in May 2015, the Company formally engaged BMO Capital Markets Corp. ("BMO"), as financial advisors. Pursuant to the agreements with KeyBanc, BMO and RCS Capital, they each would have received a listing advisory fee equal to $1.5 million if the Company's shares were listed on a national securities exchange. In the event of a sale or acquisition transaction, KeyBanc, BMO and RCS Capital each would have received a proposed transaction fee equal to 0.25% of the value of the transaction. The agreements with KeyBanc, RCS Capital and BMO were terminated in January 2016. No fees were incurred in connection with these agreements during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.
The Company’s board of directors, led by its independent directors, announced in April 2016 that it had initiated a strategic review process to identify, examine and consider a range of strategic alternatives available to the Company with the objective of maximizing shareholder value. See Note 16 — Subsequent Events — Review of Strategic Alternatives.
Other Liquidation Related Fees and Participations
The Company will pay the Advisor an annual subordinated performance fee calculated on the basis of the Company's total return to stockholders, payable annually in arrears, such that for any year in which the Company's total return on stockholders' capital exceeds 6.0% per annum, the Advisor will be entitled to 15.0% of the excess total return but not to exceed 10.0% of the aggregate total return for such year. This fee will be paid only upon the sale of assets, distributions or other event which results in the return on stockholders' capital exceeding 6.0% per annum. No subordinated performance fees were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.
The Company will pay the Advisor a brokerage commission on the sale of property, not to exceed the lesser of 2.0% of the contract sale price of the property and 50.0% of the total brokerage commission paid if a third party broker is also involved; provided, however, that in no event may the real estate commissions paid to the Advisor, its affiliates and unaffiliated third parties exceed the lesser of 6.0% of the contract sales price and a reasonable, customary and competitive real estate commission, in each case, payable to the Advisor if the Advisor or its affiliates, as determined by a majority of the independent directors, provided a substantial amount of services in connection with the sale. No such fees were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.
The Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive a subordinated participation in the net sales proceeds of the sale of real estate assets from the OP equal to 15.0% of remaining net sale proceeds after return of capital contributions to investors plus payment to investors of a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return on the capital contributed by investors. The Special Limited Partner will not be entitled to the subordinated participation in net sale proceeds unless the Company's investors have received a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return on their capital contributions. No such participation in net sales proceeds became due and payable during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.

If the common stock of the Company is listed on a national exchange, the Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive listing distribution from the OP equal to 15.0% of the amount by which the adjusted market value of real estate assets plus distributions exceeds the aggregate capital contributed by investors plus an amount equal to a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return to investors. The Special Limited Partner will not be entitled to the subordinated incentive listing distribution unless investors have received a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return on their capital contributions. No such distribution was incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015. Neither the Special Limited Partner nor any of its affiliates can earn both the subordinated participation in the net sales proceeds and the subordinated incentive listing distribution.
Upon termination or non-renewal of the advisory agreement with the Advisor, with or without cause, the Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive distributions from the OP equal to 15.0% of the amount by which the sum of the Company's market value plus distributions exceeds the sum of the aggregate capital contributed by investors plus an amount equal to an annual 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return to investors. The Special Limited Partner may elect to defer its right to receive a subordinated distribution upon termination until either a listing on a national securities exchange or other liquidity event occurs.
Note 10 — Economic Dependency
Under various agreements, the Company has engaged or will engage the Advisor, its affiliates and entities under common control with the Advisor to provide certain services that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, supervision of the management and leasing of properties owned by the Company and asset acquisition and disposition decisions, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company including accounting services and investor relations.
As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon the Advisor and its affiliates. In the event that the Advisor and its affiliates are unable to provide the Company with the respective services, the Company will be required to find alternative providers of these services.
Note 11 — Equity-Based Compensation
Restricted Share Plan
The Company has an employee and director incentive restricted share plan (the "RSP"), which provides for the automatic grant of 1,333 restricted shares of common stock to each of the independent directors, without any further approval by the Company's board of directors or the stockholders, after initial election to the board of directors and after each annual stockholder meeting, with such shares vesting annually beginning with the one year anniversary of initial election to the board of directors and the date of the next annual meeting, respectively. Restricted stock issued to independent directors will vest over a five-year period in increments of 20.0% per annum. The RSP provides the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares to the Company's directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, certain consultants to the Company and the Advisor and its affiliates or to entities that provide services to the Company. The total number of common shares granted under the RSP may not exceed 5.0% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis at any time and in any event will not exceed 3.4 million shares (as such number may be adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar events).

Restricted share awards entitle the recipient to receive shares of common stock from the Company under terms that provide for vesting over a specified period of time. For restricted share awards granted prior to July 1, 2015, such awards would typically be forfeited with respect to the unvested shares upon the termination of the recipient's employment or other relationship with the Company. For restricted share awards granted on or after July 1, 2015, such awards provide for accelerated vesting of the portion of the unvested shares scheduled to vest in the year of the recipient's voluntary termination or the failure to be re-elected to the board. Restricted shares may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested. Holders of restricted shares may receive cash distributions prior to the time that the restrictions on the restricted shares have lapsed. Any distributions payable in shares of common stock shall be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares. The following table reflects restricted share award activity for the period presented:
Number of Common Shares | Weighted-Average Issue Price | ||||||
Unvested, December 31, 2015 | 11,731 | $ | 22.50 | ||||
Granted | — | — | |||||
Vested | (800 | ) | 22.50 | ||||
Forfeitures | — | — | |||||
Unvested, March 31, 2016 | 10,931 | $ | 22.50 |
As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $0.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted share awards granted under the Company's RSP. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.5 years. Compensation expense related to restricted stock was approximately $15,000 and $1,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Compensation expense related to restricted stock is recorded as general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Other Share-Based Compensation
The Company may issue common stock in lieu of cash to pay fees earned by the Company's directors at the respective director's election. There are no restrictions on the shares issued since these payments in lieu of cash relate to fees earned for services performed. No such shares were issued during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.
Note 12 — Non-controlling Interests
The Company is the sole general partner and holds substantially all of the units of limited partner interests in the OP ("OP Units"). As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Advisor held 90 OP Units, which represents a nominal percentage of the aggregate OP ownership.
In November 2014, the Company partially funded the purchase of an MOB with the issuance of 405,908 OP Units, with a value of $10.1 million or $25.00 per unit, from an unaffiliated third party.
A holder of OP Units has the right to distributions and has the right to convert OP Units for the cash value of a corresponding number of shares of the Company's common stock or, at the option of the OP, a corresponding number of shares of the Company's common stock, in accordance with the limited partnership agreement of the OP, provided, however, that such OP Units must have been outstanding for at least one year. The remaining rights of the limited partners in the OP are limited, however, and do not include the ability to replace the general partner or to approve the sale, purchase or refinancing of the OP's assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, non-controlling interest holders were paid distributions of $0.2 million.
The Company has an investment arrangement with an unaffiliated third party whereby such investor receives an ownership interest in certain of the Company's property-owning subsidiaries and is entitled to receive a proportionate share of the net operating cash flow derived from the subsidiaries' property. Upon disposition of a property subject to non-controlling interest, the investor will receive a proportionate share of the net proceeds from the sale of the property. The investor has no recourse to any other assets of the Company. Due to the nature of the Company's involvement with the arrangement and the significance of its investment in relation to the investment of the third party, the Company has determined that it controls each entity in this arrangement and therefore the entities related to this arrangement are consolidated within the Company's financial statements. A non-controlling interest is recorded for the investor's ownership interest in the properties.

Note 14 — Segment Reporting
During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company operated in three reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes: medical office buildings, triple-net leased healthcare facilities, and seniors housing — operating properties ("SHOP").

HEALTHCARE TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
These operating segments are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which segment results are evaluated by the Company's executive officers in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The medical office building segment primarily consists of MOBs leased to healthcare-related tenants under long-term leases, which may require such tenants to pay a pro rata share of property-related expenses. The triple-net leased healthcare facilities segment primarily consists of investments in seniors housing communities, hospitals, inpatient rehabilitation facilities and skilled nursing facilities under long-term leases, under which tenants are generally responsible to directly pay property-related expenses. The SHOP segment consists of direct investments in seniors housing communities, primarily providing assisted living, independent living and memory care services, which are operated through engaging independent third-party managers. The Company evaluates the performance of the combined properties in each segment based on net operating income. Net operating income is defined as total revenues less property operating and maintenance expenses. There are no intersegment sales or transfers. The Company uses net operating income to evaluate the operating performance of real estate investments and to make decisions concerning the operation of the properties. The Company believes that net operating income is useful to investors in understanding the value of income-producing real estate. Net income (loss) is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to net operating income; however, net operating income should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of operating performance as it excludes certain items such as operating fees to the Advisor, acquisition and transaction related expenses, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, interest and other income, gain on sale of investment securities, and income tax expense. Additionally, net operating income as defined by the Company may not be comparable to net operating income as defined by other REITs or companies.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become subject to litigation, claims and regulatory matters. There are no material legal or regulatory proceedings pending or known to be contemplated against the Company or its properties.
Environmental Matters
In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had not been notified by any governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim, and is not aware of any other environmental condition that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations.
Development Project Funding
In August 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement and development agreement to acquire land and construction in progress, and subsequently fund the remaining construction, of a skilled nursing facility in Jupiter, Florida for $82.0 million. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had funded $10.0 million and $27.2 million for the land and construction in progress, respectively. Concurrent with the acquisition, the Company entered into a loan agreement and lease agreement with an affiliate of the project developer. The loan agreement is intended to provide working capital to the tenant during the initial operating period of the facility and allows for borrowings of up to $2.7 million from the Company on a non-revolving basis. Any outstanding principal balances under the loan will bear interest at 7.0% per year, payable on the first day of each fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2016, there were no amounts outstanding due to the Company pursuant to the loan agreement.

Note 16 — Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and determined that there have not been any events that have occurred that would require adjustments to disclosures in the consolidated financial statements except for the following:
Net Asset Value
On April 11, 2016, the Company's board of directors approved an estimate of per share NAV. As of this date, the Company began offering shares pursuant to the DRIP at the then-current NAV approved by the Company's board of directors.
Review of Strategic Alternatives
The Company's board of directors, led by its independent directors, announced on April 22, 2016 that it had initiated a strategic review process to identify, examine, and consider a range of strategic alternatives available to the Company with the objective of maximizing shareholder value. In connection with such process, the Company's board of directors has, among other things, (i) formed a special committee to address conflicts of interest; (ii) engaged financial advisors; and (iii) retained Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP as special legal counsel for the process.
The board of directors has not made a decision to enter into any transaction at this time, and there are no assurances that the consideration of strategic alternatives will result in any transaction. The Company does not intend to comment on or disclose developments regarding the process unless it deems further disclosure is appropriate or required.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Healthcare Trust, Inc. and the notes thereto. As used herein, the terms the "Company," "we," "our" and "us" refer to Healthcare Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, including, as required by context, Healthcare Trust Operating Partnership, LP (our "OP"), a Delaware limited partnership, and its subsidiaries. The Company is externally managed by Healthcare Trust Advisors, LLC (our "Advisor"), a Delaware limited liability company. Capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined, have the meaning ascribed to those terms in "Part I — Financial Information" included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and contained herein.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "seeks," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "plans," "intends," "should" or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
• | Certain of our executive officers and directors are also officers, managers or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our Advisor and other entities affiliated with AR Global Investments, LLC (the successor business to AR Capital, LLC, "AR Global"), the parent of our sponsor, American Realty Capital VII, LLC (the "Sponsor"). As a result, certain of our executive officers and directors, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our Advisor's compensation arrangements with us and other investment programs advised by affiliates of AR Global and conflicts in allocating time among these investment programs and us. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions. |
• | Because investment opportunities that are suitable for us may also be suitable for other investment programs advised by affiliates of AR Global, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest relating to the purchase of properties and other investments and such conflicts may not be resolved in our favor, meaning that we could invest in less attractive assets, which could reduce the investment return to our stockholders. |
• | Although we intend to list our shares of common stock on a national stock exchange when we believe market conditions are favorable to do so, there is no assurance that our shares of common stock will be listed. No public market currently exists, or may ever exist, for shares of our common stock and our shares are, and may continue to be, illiquid. |
• | We focus on acquiring a diversified portfolio of healthcare-related assets located in the United States and are subject to risks inherent in concentrating investments in the healthcare industry. |
• | If our Advisor loses or is unable to obtain qualified personnel, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered. |
• | The healthcare industry is heavily regulated, and new laws or regulations, changes to existing laws or regulations, loss of licensure or failure to obtain licensure could result in the inability of tenants to make lease payments to us. |
• | We are depending on our Advisor to select investments and conduct our operations. Adverse changes in the financial condition of our Advisor or our relationship with our Advisor could adversely affect us. |
• | We may be unable to pay distributions with cash flows from operations, or maintain cash distributions or increase distributions over time. |
• | We are obligated to pay fees, which may be substantial, to our Advisor and its affiliates. |
• | We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. |
• | We may not be able to achieve our rental rate objectives on new and renewal leases and our expenses could be greater, which may impact our results of operations. |
• | Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions. |
30
• | We are permitted to pay distributions of unlimited amounts from any source. There are no established limits on the amount of borrowings that we may use to fund distribution payments, except for those imposed by Maryland law. |
• | Any distributions, especially those not covered by our cash flows from operations, may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in properties and other permitted investments and negatively impact the value of our stockholders' investment. |
• | We have not and may not in the future generate cash flows sufficient to pay our distributions to stockholders and, as such, we may be required to fund distributions from borrowings, which may be at unfavorable rates and could restrict the amount we can borrow for investments and other purposes, or depend on our Advisor or our property manager, Healthcare Trust Properties, LLC (the "Property Manager") to waive fees or reimbursement of certain expenses and fees to fund our operations. There is no assurance these entities will waive such amounts or that we will be able to borrow funds at all. |
• | We are subject to risks associated with any dislocations or liquidity disruptions that may exist or occur in the credit markets of the United States from time to time. |
• | We are subject to risks associated with changes in general economic, business and political conditions including the possibility of intensified international hostilities, acts of terrorism, and changes in conditions of United States or international lending, capital and financing markets. |
• | We may fail to continue to qualify to be treated as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes ("REIT"), which would result in higher taxes, may adversely affect our operations and would reduce the value of an investment in our common stock and the cash available for distributions. |
• | We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. |
• | Commencing on April 11, 2016, the day we published our net asset value ("NAV"), the offering price and repurchase price for our shares, including shares sold pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan ("DRIP"), will be based on NAV, which may not accurately reflect the value of our assets and may not represent what stockholders may receive upon a liquidation of our assets. |
Overview
We invest in healthcare real estate, such as seniors housing and medical office buildings ("MOB"), located in the United States for investment purposes. As of March 31, 2016, we owned 166 properties located in 29 states and comprised of 8.5 million rentable square feet.
We were incorporated on October 15, 2012 as a Maryland corporation that elected and qualified to be taxed as a REIT beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. Substantially all of our business is conducted through the OP.
In February 2013, we commenced our initial public offering ("IPO") on a "reasonable best efforts" basis of up to $1.7 billion of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a price of $25.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts. We closed our IPO in November 2014. As of March 31, 2016, we have received $2.2 billion from our IPO including proceeds received under the DRIP.
In 2015, our board of directors determined that it was in our best interest to evaluate strategic alternatives, including a listing on a national securities exchange. Our board of directors, led by its independent directors, announced on April 22, 2016 that it had initiated a strategic review process to identify, examine, and consider a range of strategic alternatives available to us with the objective of maximizing shareholder value. In connection with such process, our board of directors has, among other things, (i) formed a special committee to address conflicts of interest; (ii) engaged financial advisors; and (iii) retained Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP as special legal counsel for the process.
Our board of directors has not made a decision to enter into any transaction at this time, and there are no assurances that the consideration of strategic alternatives will result in any transaction. We do not intend to comment on or disclose developments regarding the process unless we deem further disclosure is appropriate or required.
On April 11, 2016 (the "NAV Pricing Date"), our board of directors approved a NAV equal to $22.27 as of December 31, 2015. Subsequent valuations will occur periodically, at the discretion of our board of directors, provided that such calculations will be made at least annually. Pursuant to the DRIP, our stockholders can elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of our common stock. Prior to the NAV Pricing Date, we offered shares pursuant to the DRIP at $23.75 per share, which was 95% of the initial offering price of shares of common stock in the IPO. Effective April 11, 2016, we began offering shares pursuant to the DRIP at the then-current NAV approved by our board of directors
31
We have no employees. The Advisor has been retained by us to manage our affairs on a day-to-day basis. We have retained the Property Manager to serve as our property manager. The Advisor and Property Manager are under common control with AR Global, the parent of our Sponsor, as a result of which they are related parties, and each have received or will receive compensation, fees and expense reimbursements for services related to managing of our business. The Advisor, Healthcare Trust Special Limited Partnership, LLC and Property Manager also have received or will receive compensation, fees and expense reimbursements from us related to the investment and management of our assets.
Significant Accounting Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies
Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and critical accounting policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our financial statements. Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty. These significant accounting estimates and critical accounting policies include:
Revenue Recognition
Our rental income is primarily related to rent received from tenants in our medical office buildings ("MOB") and triple-net leased healthcare facilities. Rent from tenants in our MOB and triple-net leased healthcare facilities operating segments is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Because many of the leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") require us to record a receivable, and include in revenues on a straight-line basis, unbilled rent receivables that we will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. When we acquire a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation.
Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating expense reimbursement in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable.
Resident services and fee income primarily relates to rent from residents in our seniors housing — operating properties ("SHOP") held using a structure permitted by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 and to fees for ancillary services performed for residents in our SHOPs. Rental income from residents of our SHOP operating segment is recognized as earned. Residents pay monthly rent that covers occupancy of their unit and basic services, including utilities, meals and some housekeeping services. The terms of the rent are short term in nature, primarily month-to-month. Fees for ancillary services are recorded in the period in which the services are performed.
We defer the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants and residents in advance of their due dates.
We continually review receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determine collectability by taking into consideration the tenant's payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. In the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt, we record an increase in the allowance for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated balance sheets or record a direct write-off of the receivable in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Real Estate Investments
Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
We evaluate the inputs, processes and outputs of each asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets.
In business combinations, we allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets may include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases. In addition, any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued non-controlling interests are recorded at their estimated fair values.
We generally determine the value of construction in progress based upon the replacement cost. During the construction period, we capitalize interest, insurance and real estate taxes until the development has reached substantial completion.
32
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property with an in-place operating lease is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to the tangible assets based on the fair value of the tangible assets. The fair value of in-place leases is determined by considering estimates of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, current market conditions, as well as costs to execute similar leases. The fair value of above- or below-market leases is recorded based on the present value of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and our estimate of the fair market lease rate for the corresponding in-place lease, measured over the remaining term of the lease including any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.
In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, we utilize a number of sources, including real estate valuations prepared by independent valuation firms. We also consider information and other factors including market conditions, the industry that the tenant operates in, characteristics of the real estate, i.e. location, size, demographics, value and comparative rental rates, tenant credit profile and the importance of the location of the real estate to the operations of the tenant’s business.
In allocating the fair value to assumed mortgages, amounts are recorded to debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows, which is calculated to account for either above- or below-market interest rates.
In allocating the fair value to non-controlling interests, amounts are recorded based on the fair value of units issued at the date of acquisition, as determined by the terms of the applicable agreement.
Real estate investments that are intended to be sold are designated as "held for sale" on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale. Real estate investments are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. If the disposal, or intended disposal, of certain real estate investments represents a strategic shift that has had or will have a major effect on our operations and financial results, the operations of such real estate investments would be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for all applicable periods.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements, five years for fixtures and improvements, and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests.
Construction in progress, including capitalized interest, insurance and real estate taxes, is not depreciated until the development has reached substantial completion.
Capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market lease values are accreted as an increase to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods.
Capitalized above-market ground lease values are accreted as a reduction of property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market ground lease values are amortized as an increase to property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods.
The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases, is amortized to expense over the remaining periods of the respective leases.
The assumed mortgage premiums or discounts are amortized as an increase or reduction to interest expense over the remaining term of the respective mortgages.
Impairment of Long Lived Assets
If circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, we review the asset for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss is the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. These assessments have a direct impact on net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued revised guidance relating to revenue recognition. Under the revised guidance, an entity is required to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The revised guidance was to become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption was not permitted under GAAP. The revised guidance allows entities to apply the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method upon adoption. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the revised guidance by one year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, although entities will be allowed to early adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. We have not yet selected a transition method and are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
In January 2015, the FASB issued updated guidance that eliminates from GAAP the concept of an event or transaction that is unusual in nature and occurs infrequently being treated as an extraordinary item. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Any amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption was permitted provided that the guidance was applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We elected to adopt this new guidance as of September 30, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In February 2015, the FASB amended the accounting for consolidation of certain legal entities. The amendments modify the evaluation of whether certain legal entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs") or voting interest entities, eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership and affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs (particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships). The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was permitted, including adoption in an interim period. We have elected to adopt this guidance effective January 1, 2016. We have evaluated the impact of the adoption of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and have determined that the OP is considered a VIE. However, we meet the disclosure exemption criteria as we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE and our partnership interest in a business and the assets of the OP can be used for purposes other than settling its obligations, such as paying distributions. As such, this standard did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB amended the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet. The amendment requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. In August 2015, the FASB added that, for line of credit arrangements, the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line, regardless of whether or not there are any outstanding borrowings. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was permitted for financial statements that have not previously been issued. We have elected to adopt this guidance effective January 1, 2016. The adoption of this revised guidance resulted in the reclassification of $2.0 million and $2.2 million of deferred financing costs related to our mortgage note payable from deferred costs, net to mortgage note payable, net of deferred financing costs in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
In September 2015, the FASB issued an update that eliminates the requirement to adjust provisional amounts from a business combination and the related impact on earnings by restating prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments. The new guidance requires that the cumulative impact of measurement period adjustments on current and prior periods, including the prior period impact on depreciation, amortization and other income statement items and their related tax effects, shall be recognized in the period the adjustment amount is determined. The cumulative adjustment would be reflected within the respective financial statement line items affected. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was permitted. We elected to adopt this guidance as of September 30, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In January 2016, the FASB issued an update that amends the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance revises an entity’s accounting related to equity investments and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. Among other things, it also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted for most of the amendments in the update. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.

In February 2016, the FASB issued an update that sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. The revised guidance is effective on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance which requires an entity to determine whether the nature of its promise to provide goods or services to a customer is performed in a principal or agent capacity and to recognize revenue in a gross or net manner based on its principal/agent designation. This guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
In March 2016, the FASB issued an update that changes the accounting for certain aspects of share-based compensation. Among other things, the revised guidance allows companies to make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. The revised guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We have adopted the provisions of this guidance beginning January 1, 2016 and determined that there is no impact to our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

_______________
(1) | Revenues for our triple-net leased healthcare facilities generally consist of fixed rental amounts (subject to annual contractual escalations) received from our tenants in accordance with the applicable lease terms and do not vary based on the underlying operating performance of the properties. As of March 31, 2016, properties leased to our seniors housing — triple net leased, hospital and post acute/skilled nursing tenants had operating occupancies of approximately 86.7%, 57.0% and 77.8%, respectively. While operating occupancy rates may affect the profitability of our tenants’ operations, they do not have a direct impact on our revenues or financial results. Operating occupancy statistics for our triple-net leased healthcare facilities are compiled through reports from tenants and have not been independently validated by us. |

Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015
On January 1, 2015, we owned 118 properties (our "Same Store" properties). We acquired 48 properties during the period from January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016 (our "Acquisitions"). Accordingly, our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015 reflect significant increases in most categories primarily due to our Acquisitions. Net loss attributable to stockholders was $1.6 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Rental Income
Rental income increased $5.7 million to $26.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $20.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase was primarily due to our Acquisitions of MOBs, which resulted in an increase in rental income of $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Same Store rental income decreased by $0.7 million, primarily due to a tenant lease termination in May 2015 at Victory Medical Center at Craig Ranch located in McKinney, Texas ("Victory Medical Center").
Operating Expense Reimbursements
Operating expense reimbursements increased $0.6 million to $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Generally, operating expense reimbursements increase in proportion with the increase in property operating expenses in our MOB segment. Pursuant to many of our lease agreements, tenants are required to pay their pro rata share of property operating expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors, in addition to base rent, whereas under certain other lease agreements, the tenants are generally directly responsible for all operating costs of the respective properties. Our Acquisitions resulted in an increase of $1.2 million. Same Store operating expense reimbursements decreased $0.6 million primarily due to vacancy at Victory Medical Center resulting from a tenant lease termination in May 2015.
Resident Services and Fee Income
Resident services and fee income increased $12.1 million to $45.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $33.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Resident services and fee income is generated in connection with rent and services offered to residents in our SHOPs depending on the level of care required, as well as fees associated with other ancillary services. This increase in resident services and fee income was primarily due to our Acquisitions of SHOPs, which resulted in an increase in resident services and fee income of $10.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Same Store resident services and fee income increased $1.5 million primarily related to a change in the third party operator at the Wellington at Hershey's Mills located in West Chester, Pennsylvania, who drove increases in average occupancy and rental rates from the prior operator. Same Store resident services and fee income was also helped by general average occupancy and rate increases at many of our other SHOPs.
Contingent Purchase Price Consideration
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recognized approximately $6,000 which primarily related to contingent purchase price consideration in connection with vacancy escrow arrangements associated with two acquisitions. Based on facts and circumstances that existed at the time of acquisition, we determined that it was not probable that we would recover certain amounts placed into escrow under vacancy escrow agreements. However, the vacant leasable space under the vacancy escrow agreements was not occupied as of the agreed upon dates, which resulted in the return of escrowed funds to us and the recognition of contingent purchase price consideration. No vacancy escrow agreements resulted in the recognition of income during the three months ended March 31, 2015.
Property Operating and Maintenance Expenses
Property operating and maintenance expenses increased $11.3 million to $38.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $27.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. These costs primarily related to the costs associated with our properties, including real estate taxes, utilities, repairs, maintenance, bad debt expense and unaffiliated third party property management fees, as well as costs relating to caring for the residents in our SHOPs. The increase was primarily due to our Acquisitions, which resulted in an increase in property operating and maintenance expenses of $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Same Store property operating and maintenance expenses increased $2.7 million primarily related to increased occupancy and maintenance in our SHOPs as well as higher real estate taxes in certain of our MOBs.
36
Operating Fees to Related Parties
We pay our Advisor and Property Manager for asset management and property management services, respectively. We incurred $4.4 million in fees for asset management services from our Advisor for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Prior to April 1, 2015, these fees were paid by us causing the OP to issue restricted performance based Class B Units to the Advisor. On May 12, 2015, we entered into an amendment to our advisory agreement which, among other things, provided that, effective April 1, 2015, the asset management fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash, in shares, or a combination of both, the form of payment to be determined in the sole discretion of the Advisor, and is expensed as incurred. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we calculated 128,781 Class B Units to be issued at an issue price of $22.50 per unit in lieu of paying for the asset management services in cash.
We incurred $0.8 million in fees for property management services from our Property Manager for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Property management fees increase in direct correlation with gross revenues. The Property Manager elected to waive all property management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2015. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, we would have incurred additional property management fees of $0.6 million had these fees not been waived.
Acquisition and Transaction Related Expenses
Acquisition and transaction related expenses of $42,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily related to costs associated with property acquisitions that will not be completed, as well as costs associated with acquisitions consummated during the year ended December 31, 2015. Acquisition and transaction related expenses of $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 primarily related to our acquisition of 10 properties. Acquisition and transaction related expenses generally increase or decrease in direct correlation with the number and contract purchase price of properties acquired during the period.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $1.4 million to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, including $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively, incurred from related parties. The increase was primarily driven by professional fees incurred to support our larger real estate portfolio.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $4.8 million to $24.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $29.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Same Store depreciation and amortization decreased $14.3 million primarily due to the expiration of the estimated useful lives of in-place leases recorded at acquisition, partially offset by an increase of $9.4 million in depreciation and amortization related to our Acquisitions and $0.1 million related to internally developed corporate software that was capitalized and put into service in April 2015.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $3.6 million to $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Interest expense related to our mortgage notes payable increased $0.8 million related to our higher average mortgage notes payable balance of $157.1 million during the three months ended of March 31, 2016, compared to the $73.5 million average balance during the three months ended March 31, 2015, as well as the associated increases in amortization of deferred financing costs and accretion of mortgage discounts, partially offset by increased amortization of mortgage premiums.
We entered into a $50.0 million Credit Facility in March 2014. In April 2014, June 2015 and July 2015 we entered into amendments which increased available borrowings to $200.0 million, $500.0 million and $565.0, million respectively. Interest expense related to the Credit Facility increased $2.8 million primarily as a result of higher amortization of deferred financing costs as a result of the amendments and increases to the Credit Facility, as well as higher interest payments due to an average outstanding balance on the Credit Facility of $445.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016, partially offset by lower unused fees. There was no amount outstanding under the Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2015.
We view a mix of secured and unsecured financing sources as an efficient and accretive means to acquire properties and manage working capital. Our interest expense in future periods will vary based on our level of future borrowings, the cost of borrowings and the opportunity to acquire real estate assets which meet our investment objectives.
37
Interest and Other Income
Interest and other income decreased $0.3 million to approximately $22,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Interest and other income includes income from our investment securities and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents held during the period. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we sold all of our positions in common stock, real estate income funds and an investment in a senior note and sold a majority of our positions in preferred stock, which resulted in a decrease in dividend and interest income from our investment portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Gain on Sale of Investments
Gain on sale of investments for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $0.3 million resulted from selling certain investments in preferred stock. We did not sell any of our investments during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and therefore did not record any gain on sale of investments for such period.
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
Income tax benefit of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to deferred tax assets generated by current period net operating losses associated with our taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"). These deferred tax assets are partially offset by other income tax expenses incurred during the same period. Income tax expense of approximately $29,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 related to income from our TRS. Income taxes generally relate to our SHOPs, which are leased by our TRS.
Net Loss Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests of $6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily represents losses allocated to OP Unit holders as well as losses allocated to an unaffiliated third party that owns an interest in certain of our property owning subsidiaries and is entitled to receive a proportionate share of the net operating cash flow derived from the subsidiaries' property. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests of approximately $25,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 related to losses allocated to unaffiliated OP Unit holders. We issued 405,908 OP Units in connection with the acquisition of a property in November 2014 and 90 OP Units in December 31, 2012 in connection with our initial capitalization.
Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, net cash provided by operating activities was $26.1 million. The level of cash flows provided by operating activities is affected by the number of properties owned, the performance of those properties, the timing of interest payments and the amount of borrowings outstanding during the period, as well as the receipt of scheduled rent payments and the level of operating expenses. Cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016 included approximately $42,000 of acquisition and transaction costs. Cash inflows related to a net loss adjusted for non-cash items of $24.1 million (net loss of $1.6 million adjusted for non-cash items including depreciation and amortization of tangible and identifiable intangible real estate assets, deferred financing costs and mortgage premiums and discount, equity based compensation, bad debt expense and gain on sale of investments of $25.7 million), an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2.7 million primarily related to accrued professional fees, real estate taxes and property operating expenses for our MOBs and SHOPs, as well as accrued related party property management fees and reimbursements and interest expense, an increase of $0.4 million in deferred rent, a $0.3 million decrease in restricted cash related to tenant deposits, real estate tax and insurance escrows on mortgaged properties and a net decrease in prepaid and other assets of $1.7 million due to rent, other receivables and prepaid real estate taxes and insurance. These cash inflows were partially offset by a net increase in unbilled receivables recorded in accordance with straight-line basis accounting of approximately $3.2 million.
Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $9.7 million. The cash used in investing activities primarily included $5.9 million to fund the ongoing development of a skilled nursing facility in Jupiter, Florida. Net cash used in investing activities also included $1.8 million of capital expenditures and $2.0 million in deposits on pending real estate acquisitions.
Net cash used in financing activities of $4.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to distributions to stockholders of $17.5 million, common stock repurchases of $12.0 million, mortgage principal repayments of $4.7 million and distributions to non-controlling interest holders of $0.2 million. These cash outflows were partially offset by proceeds from the Credit Facility of $30.0 million.
38
Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, net cash provided by operating activities was $24.5 million. The level of cash flows provided by operating activities is affected by the volume of acquisition activity, the timing of interest payments and the amount of borrowings outstanding during the period, as well as the receipt of scheduled rent payments and the level of operating expenses. Cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 included $2.0 million of acquisition and transaction costs. Cash inflows related to a net loss adjusted for non-cash items of $24.8 million (net loss of $5.2 million adjusted for non-cash items including depreciation and amortization of tangible and identifiable intangible real estate assets and mortgage premiums, share based compensation, bad debt expense and gain on sale of investments of $30.0 million), an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2.8 million primarily related to accrued professional fees, real estate taxes and property operating expenses for our MOBs and SHOPs as well as an increase of $1.0 million in deferred rent. These cash inflows were partially offset by a net increase in unbilled receivables recorded in accordance with straight-line basis accounting of $2.4 million, a net increase in prepaid and other assets of $1.4 million due to rent and other receivables and prepaid real estate taxes and insurance and a $0.2 million increase in restricted cash.
Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $89.5 million. The cash used in investing activities included $90.6 million to acquire10 properties. Net cash used in investing activities also included $2.0 million in deposits for future potential real estate acquisitions, $1.1 million of capital expenditures and approximately $49,000 for the purchase of investment securities, partially offset by $4.2 million in proceeds from the sale of investment securities.
Net cash used in financing activities of $19.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 related to distributions paid to stockholders of $16.0 million, payments for common stock repurchases of $1.3 million, payments of deferred financing costs of $0.6 million, payments related to offering costs of $0.6 million, payments made on mortgage notes payable of $0.3 million and distributions to non-controlling interest holders of $0.2 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2016, we had $36.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, at fair value, of $1.1 million. We closed our IPO on November 17, 2014, which resulted in net proceeds of $2.2 billion.
We acquired our first property and commenced real estate operations in May 2013. As of March 31, 2016, we owned 166 properties with real estate investments, at cost, of $2.3 billion. Our principal demands for cash will be for acquisition costs, including the purchase price of any properties, loans and securities we acquire, improvement costs, the payment of our operating and administrative expenses, debt service obligations and distributions to our stockholders. We generally intend to acquire assets with mortgage or other debt proceeds, such as proceeds from our Credit Facility.
We expect to fund our future short-term operating liquidity requirements through a combination of cash on hand, net cash provided by our current property operations and the operations of properties to be acquired in the future, proceeds from our Credit Facility and secured mortgage financings.
We expect to utilize proceeds from secured financings and our Credit Facility to complete future property acquisitions. Specifically, we may incur mortgage debt and pledge all or some of our properties as security for that debt to obtain funds to acquire additional properties. Once we have used all the availability under our Credit Facility to acquire properties, we expect that cash flow from our properties will be sufficient to fund operating expenses and the payment of our monthly distributions. Other potential future sources of capital include proceeds from secured and unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from public and private offerings, proceeds from the sale of properties and undistributed funds from operations, if any. We may borrow if we need funds to satisfy the REIT tax qualifications requirement that we generally distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income, as calculated in accordance with GAAP, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gain). We also may borrow if we otherwise deem it necessary or advisable to assure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT.
As of March 31, 2016, the balance outstanding under the Credit Facility was $460.0 million. Our unused borrowing capacity was $105.0 million, based on assets assigned to the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2016. Availability of borrowings is based on a pool of eligible unencumbered real estate assets. As of March 31, 2016, we had the ability to borrow up to $565.0 million on a revolving basis under the Credit Facility and the Credit Facility also contains a subfacility for letters of credit of up to $25.0 million. Additionally, the Credit Facility contains an "accordion" feature to allow the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the aggregate borrowings under the Credit Facility to a maximum of $750.0 million. The Credit Facility matures on March 21, 2019. As of March 31, 2016, our secured debt leverage ratio (total secured debt divided by total assets) was approximately 27.1% and we had total secured borrowings of $614.8 million and no unsecured borrowings.
39
To the extent that we maintain borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility, such available amount will be included in calculating our liquid assets. Our Advisor will consider various factors in determining the amount of liquid assets we should maintain, including, but not limited to, our receipt of proceeds received from common stock issued under the DRIP, our cash flow from operations, available borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility, if any, our receipt of proceeds from any asset sale, and the use of cash to fund repurchases. The board of directors will review the amount and sources of liquid assets on a quarterly basis.
Our board of directors has adopted a Share Repurchase Program (as amended, the "SRP") which enables our stockholders to sell their shares to us under limited circumstances. At the time a stockholder requests a repurchase, we may, subject to certain conditions, repurchase the shares presented for repurchase for cash. On January 26, 2016, our board of directors approved and amended the SRP (the "SRP Amendment") to supersede and replace the existing SRP. Under the SRP Amendment, repurchases of shares of our common stock, when requested, are at the sole discretion of our board of directors and generally will be made semiannually (each six-month period ending June 30 or December 31, a “fiscal semester”). There are limits on the number of shares we may repurchase under this program during any fiscal semester. Further, we are only authorized to repurchase shares in a given fiscal semester up to the amount of proceeds received from our DRIP in that same fiscal semester.
The following table reflects the number of shares repurchased cumulatively through March 31, 2016:
Number of Shares Repurchased | Average Price per Share | ||||||
Cumulative repurchases as of December 31, 2015(1) | 968,370 | $ | 23.72 | ||||
Three months ended March 31, 2016 (2) | 6,660 | 24.36 | |||||
Cumulative repurchases as of March 31, 2016 (1)(2) | 975,030 | $ | 23.73 |
_____________________________
(1) Excludes rejected repurchases of 201,367 shares for $4.6 million at an average price per share of $23.04 which were unfulfilled. There were no other unfulfilled share repurchases for the period from October 15, 2012 (date of inception) to March 31, 2016.
(2) | Includes additional accrued repurchases consisting of 6,660 shares for $0.2 million at an average repurchase price per share of $24.36, which were completed in April and May 2016. The accrual for these repurchases is reflected in the accounts payable and accrued expenses line of the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The additional shares will be deducted from the applicable limits of the SRP Amendment when processing share repurchases for the first fiscal semester of 2016. |
Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations
The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings, improvements, and straight-line amortization of intangibles, which implies that the value of a real estate asset diminishes predictably over time. We believe that, because real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including, but not limited to, inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using the historical accounting convention for depreciation and certain other items may be less informative.
Because of these factors, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), an industry trade group, has published a standardized measure of performance known as funds from operations ("FFO"), which is used in the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. We believe FFO, which excludes certain items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, is an appropriate supplemental measure of a REIT's operating performance. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards set forth in the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004 (the "White Paper"). The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, but excluding gains or losses from sales of property and real estate related impairments, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
We believe that the use of FFO provides a more complete understanding of our performance to investors and to management, and, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income.
40
Changes in the accounting and reporting promulgations under GAAP that were put into effect in 2009 subsequent to the establishment of NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as the change to expense as incurred rather than capitalize and depreciate acquisition fees and expenses incurred for business combinations, have prompted an increase in cash-settled expenses, specifically acquisition fees and expenses, as items that are expensed under GAAP across all industries. These changes had a particularly significant impact on publicly registered, non-listed REITs, which typically have a significant amount of acquisition activity in the early part of their existence, particularly during the period when they are raising capital through ongoing initial public offerings.
Because of these factors, the Investment Program Association ("IPA"), an industry trade group, has published a standardized measure of performance known as modified funds from operations ("MFFO"), which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental measure for publicly registered, non-listed REITs. MFFO is designed to be reflective of the ongoing operating performance of publicly registered, non-listed REITs by adjusting for those costs that are more reflective of acquisitions and investment activity, along with other items the IPA believes are not indicative of the ongoing operating performance of a publicly registered, non-listed REIT, such as straight-lining of rents as required by GAAP. We believe it is appropriate to use MFFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance because we believe that, when compared year-over-year, both before and after we have deployed all of our offering proceeds and are no longer incurring a significant amount of acquisition fees or other related costs, it reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the IPA's Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations (the "Practice Guideline") issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for acquisition and transaction-related fees and expenses and other items. In calculating MFFO, we follow the Practice Guideline and exclude acquisition and transaction-related fees and expenses, amortization of above and below market and other intangible lease assets and liabilities, amounts relating to straight-line rents (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the lease and rental payments), contingent purchase price consideration, accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, capitalized interest, mark-to-market adjustments included in net income, gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis.
We believe that, because MFFO excludes costs that we consider more reflective of acquisition activities and other non-operating items, MFFO can provide, on a going-forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring properties and once our portfolio is stabilized. We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-listed REIT industry and allows for an evaluation of our performance against other publicly registered, non-listed REITs.
Not all REITs, including publicly registered, non-listed REITs, calculate FFO and MFFO the same way. Accordingly, comparisons with other REITs, including publicly registered, non-listed REITs, may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are not indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations as determined under GAAP as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance. FFO and MFFO should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income or in its applicability in evaluating our operating performance. The methods utilized to evaluate the performance of a publicly registered, non-listed REIT under GAAP should be construed as more relevant measures of operational performance and considered more prominently than the non-GAAP measures, FFO and MFFO, and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO and MFFO.
Neither the SEC, NAREIT, the IPA nor any other regulatory body or industry trade group has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO or MFFO. In the future, NAREIT, the IPA or another industry trade group may publish updates to the White Paper or the Practice Guideline or the SEC or another regulatory body could standardize the allowable adjustments across the publicly registered, non-listed REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO or MFFO accordingly.

The table below reflects the items deducted from or added to net loss attributable to stockholders in our calculation of FFO and MFFO for the periods indicated. In calculating our FFO and MFFO, we exclude the impact of amounts attributable to our non-controlling interests.

Distributions
In April 2013, our directors authorized, and we declared, a distribution payable on a monthly basis to stockholders of record on a daily basis at a rate equal to $0.0046575343 per day, which is equivalent to $1.70 per annum, per share of common stock, which began in May 2013. In March 2016, our board of directors ratified the existing distribution amount equivalent to $1.70 per annum, and, for calendar year 2016, affirmed a change to the daily distribution payable to stockholders of record each day during the applicable period to $0.0046448087 per day per share of common stock to accurately reflect that 2016 is a leap year. Distributions are payable by the 5th day following each month end to stockholders of record at the close of business each day during the prior month.
The amount of distributions payable to our stockholders is determined by our board of directors and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for distribution, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, as applicable, requirements of Maryland law and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. Our board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time and therefore distribution payments are not assured.
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, distributions paid to common stockholders and OP Unit holders totaled $36.8 million, including $19.1 million which was reinvested through our DRIP.
42
The following table shows the sources for the payment of distributions to common stockholders, including distributions on unvested restricted stock and OP Units, but excluding distributions related to Class B Units as these distributions are recorded as an expense in our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, for the periods indicated:

______________________________
(1) | Cash flows provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 include acquisition and transaction related expenses of approximately $42,000. |
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, cash flows provided by operations were $26.1 million. As shown in the table above, we funded distributions with cash flows provided by operations as well as proceeds received from common stock issued under our DRIP, the sale of investment securities and financings. To the extent we pay distributions in excess of cash flows provided by operations, our stockholders' investment may be adversely impacted. Since inception, our cumulative distributions have exceeded our cumulative FFO. Distributions paid from sources other than our cash flows from operations will result in us having fewer funds available for other needs such as property acquisitions and other real estate-related investments.
We may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations in 2016 to pay distributions at our current level and we may not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to pay future distributions. The amount of cash available for distributions is affected by many factors, such as rental income from acquired properties and our operating expense levels, as well as many other variables. Actual cash available for distributions may vary substantially from estimates. Since inception, our cumulative distributions have exceeded our cumulative FFO. We cannot give any assurance that future acquisitions of real properties, if any, will increase our cash available for distributions to stockholders. Our actual results may differ significantly from the assumptions used by our board of directors in establishing a distribution rate to stockholders.
If we do not generate sufficient cash flows from our operations, we expect to use a portion of our cash on hand and the proceeds from our DRIP to pay distributions. A decrease in the level of stockholder participation in our DRIP could have an adverse impact on our ability to meet these expectations. If these sources are insufficient, we may use other sources, such as from borrowings, the sale of additional securities, advances from our Advisor, and our Advisor's deferral, suspension or waiver of its fees and expense reimbursements, as to which it has no obligation, to fund distributions.

The following table compares cumulative distributions paid to cumulative net loss and cumulative cash flows provided by operations (in accordance with GAAP) for the period from October 15, 2012 (date of inception) through March 31, 2016:

Loan Obligations
The payment terms of our mortgage notes payable generally require principal and interest amounts payable monthly with all unpaid principal and interest due at maturity. The payment terms of our Credit Facility require interest only amounts payable monthly with all unpaid principal and interest due at maturity. Our loan agreements require us to comply with specific reporting covenants. As of March 31, 2016, we were in compliance with the debt covenants under our loan agreements.
Our Advisor may cause us, with approval from our independent directors, to seek to borrow short-term capital that, combined with secured mortgage financing, exceeds our targeted leverage ratio.

Contractual Obligations
The following table reflects contractual debt obligations under our mortgage notes payable and Credit Facility and minimum base rental cash payments due for leasehold interests over the next five years and thereafter as of March 31, 2016. The minimum base rental cash payments due for leasehold interests amounts exclude contingent rent payments, as applicable, that may be payable based on provisions related to increases in annual rent based on exceeding certain economic indexes, among other items. As of March 31, 2016, the outstanding mortgage notes payable and loans under the Credit Facility had weighted-average effective interest rates of 5.3% and 2.7%, respectively.

Election as a REIT
We elected and qualified to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, effective for our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. Commencing with such taxable year, we were organized and operated in a manner so that we qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code. We intend to continue to operate in such a manner but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to remain qualified for taxation as a REIT. In order to continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT we must, among other things, distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP) determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and must comply with a number of other organization and operational requirements. If we continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax on that portion of our REIT taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders. Even if we continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and properties as well as federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
Inflation
We may be adversely impacted by inflation on any leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions. In addition, we may be required to pay costs for maintenance and operation of properties, which may adversely impact our results of operations due to potential increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
Related-Party Transactions and Agreements
Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the "Former Dealer Manager") served as the dealer manager of the IPO. American National Stock Transfer, LLC ("ANST"), a subsidiary of the parent company of the Former Dealer Manager, provided other general professional services through January 2016. RCS Capital Corporation, the parent company of the Former Dealer Manager and certain of its affiliates that provided us with services, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in January 2016, prior to which it was also under common control with AR Global, the parent of our Sponsor.
45
We have entered into agreements with affiliates of our Sponsor, whereby we have paid and/or may in the future pay certain fees or reimbursements to our Advisor, its affiliates and entities under common ownership with our Advisor in connection with items such as acquisition and financing activities, sales and maintenance of common stock under our IPO, which has closed, asset and property management services and reimbursement of operating and offering related costs. The predecessor to AR Global is a party to a services agreement with RCS Advisory Services, LLC, a subsidiary of the parent company of the Former Dealer Manager (“RCS Advisory”), pursuant to which RCS Advisory and its affiliates provided us and certain other companies sponsored by AR Global with services (including, without limitation, transaction management, compliance, due diligence, event coordination and marketing services, among others) on a time and expenses incurred basis or at a flat rate based on services performed. The predecessor to AR Global instructed RCS Advisory to stop providing such services in November 2015 and no services have since been provided by RCS Advisory. We were also party to a transfer agency agreement with ANST, a subsidiary of the parent of the Former Dealer Manager, pursuant to which ANST provided us with transfer agency services (including broker and stockholder servicing, transaction processing, year-end IRS reporting and other services), and supervisory services overseeing the transfer agency services performed by DST Systems, Inc., a third-party transfer agent ("DST"). AR Global received written notice from ANST on February 10, 2016 that it would wind down operations by the end of the month and would withdraw as the transfer agent effective February 29, 2016. On February 26, 2016, we entered into a definitive agreement with DST to provide us directly with transfer agency services (including broker and stockholder servicing, transaction processing, year-end IRS reporting and other services). See Note 9 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the various related party transactions, agreements and fees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The market risk associated with financial instruments and derivative financial instruments is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices or interest rates. Our long-term debt, which consists of secured financings and our Credit Facility, bears interest at fixed rates and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps, collars, and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We will not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2016, we did not have any derivative financial instruments. We do not have any foreign operations and thus we are not exposed to foreign currency fluctuations.
As of March 31, 2016, our debt consisted of both fixed and variable-rate debt. We had fixed-rate secured mortgage financings with an aggregate carrying value of $156.7 million and a fair value of $159.8 million. Changes in market interest rates on our fixed-rate debt impact the fair value of the mortgage notes, but it has no impact on interest due on the mortgage notes. For instance, if interest rates rise 100 basis points and our fixed rate debt balance remains constant, we expect the fair value of our obligation to decrease, the same way the price of a bond declines as interest rates rise. The sensitivity analysis related to our fixed–rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their March 31, 2016 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt by $6.5 million. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt by $7.2 million.
At March 31, 2016, our variable-rate Credit Facility had a carrying and fair value of $460.0 million. Interest rate volatility associated with this variable-rate Credit Facility affects interest expense incurred and cash flow. The sensitivity analysis related to all other variable-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their March 31, 2016 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in variable interest rates on our variable-rate Credit Facility would increase or decrease our interest expense by $4.6 million.
These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rate changes on our borrowing costs, and assuming no other changes in our capital structure. The information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of March 31, 2016 and does not consider exposures or positions arising after that date. The information represented herein has limited predictive value. Future actual realized gains or losses with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on cumulative exposures, hedging strategies employed and the magnitude of the fluctuations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change occurred in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended March 31, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not a party to, and none of our properties are subject to, any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Our potential risks and uncertainties are presented in the section entitled "Item 1A. Risk Factors," disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The following additional risk factors should be considered regarding our potential risks and uncertainties:
Distributions paid from sources other than our cash flows from operations result in us having fewer funds available for the acquisition of properties and other real estate-related investments and may dilute our stockholders' interests in us, which may adversely affect our ability to fund future distributions with cash flows from operations and may adversely affect our stockholders' overall return.
Our cash flows provided by operations were $26.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we paid distributions of $36.8 million, of which $26.1 million, or 70.8%, was funded from cash flows from operations, $7.1 million, or 19.3%, was funded from proceeds received from our DRIP, $3.1 million, or 8.4%, was funded from financings and $0.5 million, or 1.5%, was funded from the sale of investment securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, cash flow from operations included an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2.7 million, as reflected on the statement of cash flows. Accordingly, if these accounts payable and accrued expenses had been paid during the three months ended March 31, 2016, there would have been $2.7 million less in cash flow from operations available to pay distributions.
We may not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to pay future distributions. Moreover, our board of directors may change our distribution policy, in its sole discretion, at any time. In accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (1) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; (2) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences, if any; or (3) jeopardize our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT.
Funding distributions from borrowings could restrict the amount we can borrow for investments, which may affect our profitability. Funding distributions with the sale of assets may affect our ability to generate additional operating cash flows. Funding distributions from the sale of additional securities could dilute each stockholder's interest in us if we sell shares of our common stock or securities that are convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock to third-party investors. Payment of distributions from the mentioned sources could restrict our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, affect our profitability or affect the distributions payable to stockholders upon a liquidity event, any or all of which may have an adverse effect on an investment in our shares.
Our property portfolio has a high concentration of properties located in seven states. Our properties may be adversely affected by economic cycles and risks inherent to those states.
As of March 31, 2016, the following seven states represented 5% or more of our consolidated annualized rental income on a straight-line basis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015:
State | Percentage of Straight-Line Rental Income | |
Arkansas | 5.4% | |
Florida | 18.7% | |
Georgia | 9.7% | |
Iowa | 10.1% | |
Michigan | 6.5% | |
Missouri | 5.1% | |
Pennsylvania | 11.7% |
48
Any adverse situation that disproportionately affects the states listed above may have a magnified adverse effect on our portfolio. Real estate markets are subject to economic downturns, as they have been in the past, and we cannot predict how economic conditions will impact this market in both the short and long term. Declines in the economy or a decline in the real estate market in these states could hurt our financial performance and the value of our properties. Factors that may negatively affect economic conditions in these states include:
• | business layoffs or downsizing; |
• | industry slowdowns; |
• | relocations of businesses; |
• | changing demographics; |
• | increased telecommuting and use of alternative work places; |
• | infrastructure quality; |
• | any oversupply of, or reduced demand for, real estate; |
• | concessions or reduced rental rates under new leases for properties where tenants defaulted; |
• | increased insurance premiums; |
• | state budgets and payment to providers under Medicaid or other state healthcare programs; and |
• | changes in reimbursement for healthcare services from commercial insurers. |
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
We did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
