Note 1 — Organization
Healthcare Trust, Inc. (including, as required by context, Healthcare Trust Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”) and its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is an externally managed entity that for U.S. federal income tax purposes has qualified as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). The Company acquires, owns and manages a diversified portfolio of healthcare-related real estate, focused on medical office and other healthcare-related buildings (“MOBs”) and senior housing operating properties (“SHOPs”). Prior to December 31, 2021, the Company reported in three reportable segments, see Note 15—Segment Reporting for additional information.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company owned 198 properties located in 33 states and comprised of 9.0 million rentable square feet.
Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through the OP and its wholly owned subsidiaries including taxable REIT subsidiaries. The Company’s advisor, Healthcare Trust Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) manages our day-to-day business with the assistance of our property manager, Healthcare Trust Properties, LLC (the “Property Manager”). The Company’s Advisor and Property Manager are under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (“AR Global”), and these related parties receive compensation and fees for providing services to us. The Company also reimburses these entities for certain expenses they incur in providing these services to the Company. Healthcare Trust Special Limited Partnership, LLC (the “Special Limited Partner”), which is also under common control with AR Global, also has an interest in the Company through ownership of interests in the OP. As of March 31, 2022, the Company owned 50 seniors housing properties under the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act (“RIDEA”) structure in its SHOP segment. Under RIDEA, a REIT may lease qualified healthcare properties on an arm’s length basis to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) if the property is operated on behalf of such subsidiary by a person who qualifies as an eligible independent contractor.
The Company operates in two reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes: MOBs and SHOPs. In its MOB operating segment, the Company owns, manages, and leases single and multi-tenant MOBs where 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. The Property Manager or third party managers manage the Company’s MOBs. In its SHOP segment, the Company invests in seniors housing properties using the RIDEA structure. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had four eligible independent contractors operating 50 SHOPs (not including two land parcels). All of the Company’s properties across both business segments are located throughout the United States.
Since October 2020, the Company has declared and paid quarterly dividends solely in shares of its common stock during the periods described in more detail below (the “Stock Dividends”). Stock Dividends paid in January 2021 were equal to 0.01349 shares of common stock on each share of outstanding common stock. The Stock Dividends paid in April 2021, July 2021, October 2021 and January 2022 were equal to 0.014655 shares of common stock on each share of outstanding common stock. The Stock Dividends paid in April 2022 were equal to 0.014167 shares of common stock on each share of outstanding common stock.
Dividends payable entirely in shares of common stock are treated in a fashion similar to a stock split for accounting purposes specifically related to per-share calculations for the current and prior periods. The Company has issued an aggregate of 8,209,673 shares in respect to the Stock Dividends. No other additional shares of common stock were issued during the three months ended March 31, 2022. References made to weighted-average shares and per-share amounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the increase of 0.10416 shares for every share outstanding resulting from the Stock Dividends since October 2020, and are noted as such throughout the accompanying financial statements and notes.
On April 1, 2022, the Company published a new estimate of per-share net asset value (“Estimated Per-Share NAV”) as of December 31, 2021. The Company’s previous Estimated Per-Share NAV was as of December 31, 2020. The Estimated Per-Share NAV published on April 1, 2022 has not been adjusted since publication and will not be adjusted until the board of directors (the “Board”) determines a new Estimated Per-Share NAV. Issuing dividends in additional shares of common stock will, all things equal, cause the value of each share to decline because the number of shares outstanding increases when shares of common stock are issued in respect of a stock dividend; however, because each stockholder will receive the same number of new shares, the total value of a common stockholder’s investment, all things equal, will not change assuming no sales or other transfers. The Company intends to publish Estimated Per-Share NAV periodically at the discretion of the Board, provided that such estimates will be made at least once annually unless the Company lists its common stock.

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 this Quarterly Report on 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 statement of results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods.
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, 2021, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 18, 2022. Except for those required by new accounting pronouncements discussed below, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“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.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, impairments, fair value measurements and income taxes, as applicable.
Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic
During the first quarter of 2020, the global COVID-19 pandemic that has spread around the world and to every state in the United States commenced. The pandemic has had and could continue to have an adverse impact on economic and market conditions, including a global economic slowdown and recession that may continue for some time. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and another pandemic in the future could have, impacts across many sectors and areas of the global economy and financial markets, leading to significant adverse impacts on economic activity including volatility in financial markets. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has evolved rapidly. In many states and cities where our properties are located, measures including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders issued by local, state and federal authorities for much of 2020 and the early part of 2021 as well as social distancing measures resulted in closures and limitations on the operations of many businesses and organizations. While strict “shelter-in-place” and similar orders have generally been lifted, continued limitations on indoor occupancy or other restrictions applicable to in-person operations have been and may in the future be re-instituted in some jurisdictions as rates of infection increase in those locations, including in light of the current spread of the Delta and Omicron variants and other potentially more contagious variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, it is highly uncertain to what extent and when any such continuing restrictions will be lifted in various jurisdictions and could depend on numerous factors, including vaccination rates among the population, the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines against these variants and the response by governmental bodies and regulators. The Company’s tenants and SHOP properties operate businesses that require in-person interactions with their patients and residents. Even for businesses that have not closed or have closed and reopened, concern regarding the transmission of COVID-19 has impacted, and will likely continue to impact, the willingness of persons to, among other things, live in or use facilities at our properties, and impact the revenues generated by our tenants which may further impact the ability of our tenants to pay their rent obligations to us when due. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of March 31, 2022, however uncertainty over the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the global economy generally, and the Company’s business in particular, makes

any estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2022 inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.
The Company’s ability to lease space and negotiate and maintain favorable rents and the results of operations at its SHOPs could also continue to be negatively impacted by a prolonged recession in the U.S. economy as could the rates charged to residents at its SHOPs. Moreover, the demand for leasing space at the Company’s MOB properties could decline further negatively impacting occupancy percentage, revenue and net income. Additionally, downturns or stagnation in the U.S. housing market as a result of an economic downturn could adversely affect the ability, or perceived ability, of seniors to afford the resident fees and services at the Company’s SHOPs. Further, recent and continuing increases in inflation brought about by labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and increases in interest rates may adversely impact the Company’s results of operations. Moreover, these increases in the rate of inflation, the ongoing war in Ukraine and related sanctions, supply chain disruptions and increases in interest rates may also impact the ability of the Company’s tenants to pay rent and hence the Company’s results of operations and liquidity. For more information about the risks and uncertainties associated with inflation, the ongoing war in Ukraine and related sanctions and labor shortages, please see the sections “Inflation” and Part II—Item 1A. Risk Factors below.
Starting in March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic and measures to prevent its spread began to affect the Company in a number of ways that vary by operating segment:
COVID-19 Impact — MOB Segment
The financial stability and overall health of the Company’s tenants is critical to its business. The negative effects that the global pandemic has had on the economy includes the closure or reduction in occupancy activity at some of the Company’s MOBs. The economic impact of the pandemic has impacted the ability of some of the Company’s tenants to pay their monthly rent either temporarily or in the long term. The Company experienced delays in rent collections throughout the year ended December 31, 2020, although collections have been approximately 100% of original cash rent for the MOB segment since the first quarter of 2021. The Company has taken a proactive approach to achieve mutually agreeable solutions with its tenants and in some cases, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company executed lease amendments providing for deferral of rent. Since the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has not entered into any rent deferral agreements with any of its tenants, and all amounts previously deferred under prior rent deferral agreements have been collected.
For accounting purposes, in accordance with ASC 842: Leases, normally a company would be required to assess a lease modification to determine if the lease modification should be treated as a separate lease and if not, modification accounting would be applied which would require a company to reassess the classification of the lease (including leases for which the prior classification under ASC 840 was retained as part of the election to apply the package of practical expedients allowed upon the adoption of ASC 842, which doesn’t apply to leases subsequently modified). However, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic in which many leases are being modified, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and SEC have provided relief that allows companies to make a policy election as to whether they treat COVID-19 related lease amendments as a provision included in the pre-concession arrangement, and therefore, not a lease modification, or to treat the lease amendment as a modification. In order to be considered COVID-19 related, cash flows must be substantially the same or less than those prior to the concession. For COVID-19 relief qualified changes, there are two methods to potentially account for such rent deferrals or abatements under the relief, (1) as if the changes were originally contemplated in the lease contract or (2) as if the deferred payments are variable lease payments contained in the lease contract.
For all other lease changes that did not qualify for FASB relief, the Company is required to apply modification accounting including assessing classification under ASC 842. Some, but not all of the Company’s lease modifications qualify for the FASB relief. In accordance with the relief provisions, instead of treating these qualifying leases as modifications, the Company has elected to treat the modifications as if previously contained in the lease and recast rents receivable prospectively (if necessary). Under that accounting, for modifications that were deferrals only, there would be no impact on overall rental revenue and for any abatement amounts that reduced total rent to be received, the impact would be recognized ratably over the remaining life of the lease. For leases not qualifying for this relief, the Company has applied modification accounting and determined that there were no changes in the current classification of its leases impacted by negotiations with its tenants.
COVID-19 Impact — SHOP Segment
In the Company’s SHOP segment, occupancy trended downward from March 2020 until June 2021 and has since stabilized and begun to recover. Government policies and implementation of infection control best practices materially limited or closed communities to new resident move-ins which affected the Company’s ability to fill vacancies. The Company has experienced lower inquiry volumes and reduced in-person tours during the pandemic. In addition, starting in March 2020, operating costs began to rise materially, including for services, labor and personal protective equipment and other supplies, as the Company’s operators took appropriate actions to protect residents and caregivers. At the SHOPs, the Company generally bears these cost increases, which were partially offset by funds received under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act
10

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2022
(Unaudited)
(“CARES Act”), and to a lesser extent, cost recoveries for personal protective equipment from residents. See below for additional information on the CARES Act. These trends became more prominent in the first quarter of 2022 as inflation increased and the Company relied more on the use of temporary contract labor and agencies in response to a shortage of workers largely due to, among other things, the spread of more transmissible COVID-19 variants such as the Omicron variant, increased inflation raising the cost of labor generally and increased demand for qualified personnel. Future developments in the course of the pandemic, inflation increases, labor shortages and supply chain disruptions may cause further adverse impacts to the Company’s occupancy and cost levels, and these trends may continue to impact the Company and have a material adverse effect on its revenues and income in future quarters. While the development of COVID-19 vaccines may limit that effect, the effectiveness of vaccines and the willingness to receive vaccines are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.
The financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company has been partially offset by funds received under the CARES Act. The Company received $5.1 million in these funds during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company considered these funds to be a grant contribution from the government. The full amounts received were recognized as a reduction of property operating expenses in our consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021, to partially offset the incurred COVID-19 expenses. In addition, the Company has applied for additional funds, however, those applications have not yet been approved and no funds have been received since the three months ended March 31, 2021. There can be no assurance that the program will be extended or any further amounts received under currently effective or potential future government programs.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues, which are derived primarily from lease contracts, include rent received from tenants in its MOBs. As of March 31, 2022, these leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 5.0 years. Rent from tenants in the Company’s MOB operating segment (as discussed below) 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, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable for, and include in revenue from tenants on a straight-line basis, unbilled rent receivables that the Company will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. When the Company acquires a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation. For new leases after acquisition, the commencement date is considered to be the date the tenant takes control of the space. For lease modifications, the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease modification is executed. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. Tenant revenue also includes operating expense reimbursements which generally increase with the increase in property operating and maintenance expenses in our MOB segment. In addition to base rent, dependent on the specific lease, tenants are generally required to pay either (i) their pro rata share of property operating and maintenance expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors or (ii) their share of increases in property operating and maintenance expenses to the extent they exceed the properties’ expenses for the base year of the respective leases. Under ASC 842, the Company has elected to report combined lease and non-lease components in a single line “Revenue from tenants.” For expenses paid directly by the tenant, under both ASC 842 and 840, the Company has reflected them on a net basis.
The Company’s revenues also include resident services and fee income primarily related to rent derived from lease contracts with residents in the Company’s SHOPs held using a structure permitted under the REIT Investment and Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 and to fees for ancillary services performed for SHOP residents, which are generally variable in nature. Rental income from residents in the Company’s SHOP segment is recognized as earned when services are provided. Residents pay monthly rent that covers occupancy of their unit and basic services, including utilities, meals and some housekeeping services. The terms of the leases are short term in nature, primarily month-to-month. Also included in revenue from tenants is fees for ancillary revenue from non-residents of $1.8 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company did not record any significant amounts of ancillary revenue. Fees for ancillary services are recorded in the period in which the services are performed.
The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants and residents in advance of their due dates. Pursuant to certain of the Company’s lease agreements, tenants are required to reimburse the Company for certain property operating expenses related to non-SHOP assets (recorded in revenue from tenants), in addition to paying base rent, whereas under certain other lease agreements, the tenants are directly responsible for all operating costs of the respective properties.
The following table presents future base rent payments on a cash basis due to the Company over the periods indicated over the next five years and thereafter. These amounts exclude tenant reimbursements and contingent rent payments, as applicable, that may be collected from certain tenants based on provisions related to sales thresholds and increases in annual rent based on

exceeding certain economic indexes, among other items. These amounts also exclude SHOP leases which are short term in nature.

The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determines 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. Under the leasing standards, the Company is required to assess, based on credit risk only, if it is probable that the Company will collect virtually all of the lease payments at lease commencement date and it must continue to reassess collectability periodically thereafter based on new facts and circumstances affecting the credit risk of the tenant. Partial reserves, or the ability to assume partial recovery are no longer permitted. If the Company determines that it is probable it will collect virtually all of the lease payments (rent and common area maintenance), the lease will continue to be accounted for on an accrual basis (i.e., straight-line). However, if the Company determines it is not probable that it will collect virtually all of the lease payments, the lease will be accounted for on a cash basis and a full reserve would be recorded on previously accrued amounts in cases where it was subsequently concluded that collection was not probable. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating revenue from tenants in accordance with new accounting rules, on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable.
The Company recorded a reduction of revenue of $0.4 million and $0.2 million for uncollectable amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Investments in Real Estate
Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life or improve the productive capacity of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
At the time an asset is acquired, the Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of the 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. See the “Purchase Price Allocation” section in this Note for a discussion of the initial accounting for investments in real estate.
Disposal of real estate investments that represent a strategic shift in operations that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results are required to be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. No properties were presented as discontinued operations during the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Properties that are intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale, most significantly that the sale is probable within one year. The Company evaluates probability of sale based on specific facts including whether a sales agreement is in place and the buyer has made significant non-refundable deposits. Properties are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. There were no real estate investments held for sale as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.
In accordance with the lease accounting standard, all of the Company’s leases as lessor prior to adoption were accounted for as operating leases. The Company evaluates new leases originated after the adoption date (by the Company or by a predecessor lessor/owner) pursuant to the new guidance where a lease for some or all of a building is classified by a lessor as a

sales-type lease if the significant risks and rewards of ownership reside with the tenant. This situation is met if, among other things, there is an automatic transfer of title during the lease, a bargain purchase option, the non-cancelable lease term is for more than major part of remaining economic useful life of the asset (e.g., equal to or greater than 75%), if the present value of the minimum lease payments represents substantially all (e.g., equal to or greater than 90%) of the leased property’s fair value at lease inception, or if the asset so specialized in nature that it provides no alternative use to the lessor (and therefore would not provide any future value to the lessor) after the lease term. Further, such new leases would be evaluated to consider whether they would be failed sale-leaseback transactions and accounted for as financing transactions by the lessor. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three-year period ended December 31, 2021, the Company has no leases as a lessor that would be considered as sales-type leases or financings under sale-leaseback rules.
The Company is also the lessee under certain land leases which will continue to be classified as operating leases under transition elections unless subsequently modified. These leases are reflected on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the rent expense is reflected on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company generally determines the value of construction in progress based upon the replacement cost. During the construction period, the Company capitalizes interest, insurance and real estate taxes until the development has reached substantial completion.
Purchase Price Allocation
In both a business combination and an asset acquisition, the Company allocates 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 on an as-if vacant basis. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases and other identifiable assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. In addition, any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued non-controlling interests (in a business combination) are recorded at their estimated fair values. 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 any assumed or issued non-controlling interests, amounts are recorded at their fair value at the close of business on the acquisition date. In a business combination, the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is either recorded as goodwill or as a bargain purchase gain. In an asset acquisition, the difference between the acquisition price (including capitalized transaction costs) and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is allocated to the non-current assets. All acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2021 were asset acquisitions. The Company did not acquire any properties during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
For acquired properties with leases classified as operating leases, the Company allocates the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective fair values. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of the Company’s pre-acquisition due diligence in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.
Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. The Company estimates the fair value using data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Fair value estimates are also made using significant assumptions such as capitalization rates, fair market lease rates, discount rates and land values per square foot.
Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquired leases for above- and below-market lease rates and the value of in-place leases. Factors considered in the analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, taking into account current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at contract rates during the expected lease-up period, which typically ranges from to 24 months. The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining initial term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.
The aggregate value of intangible assets related to customer relationship, as applicable, is measured based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the tenant. Characteristics considered by the Company in determining these values include the nature and extent of its existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors. The Company did not record any intangible asset amounts related to customer relationships during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property 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 an impairment exists, due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, the Company would recognize an impairment loss in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income 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 recorded would equal 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 earnings.
Reportable Segments
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has determined that it has two reportable segments, with activities related to investing in MOBs and SHOPs. Management evaluates the operating performance of the Company’s investments in real estate and seniors housing properties on an individual property level. For additional information see Note 15 — Segment Reporting.
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, 7 to 10 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. The value of certain other intangibles such as certificates of need in certain jurisdictions are amortized over the expected period of benefit (generally the life of the related building).
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 value of customer relationship intangibles, if any, is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.
Assumed mortgage premiums or discounts are amortized as an increase or reduction to interest expense over the remaining terms of the respective mortgages.
Income Taxes
The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2013. If the Company continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes all of its REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP) to its stockholders. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that the Company distribute annually at least 90% of the Company’s REIT taxable income to the Company’s stockholders.
If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with
14
HEALTHCARE TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2022
(Unaudited)
the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. The Company distributed to its stockholders 100% of its REIT taxable income for each of the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal or state income taxes related to such REIT taxable income was recorded in the Company’s financial statements. Even if the Company continues to qualify as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
Certain limitations are imposed on REITs with respect to the ownership and operation of seniors housing properties. Generally, to qualify as a REIT, the Company cannot directly or indirectly operate seniors housing properties. Instead, such facilities may be either leased to a third-party operator or leased to a TRS and operated by a third party on behalf of the TRS. Accordingly, the Company has formed a TRS that is wholly-owned by the OP to lease its SHOPs and the TRS has entered into management contracts with unaffiliated third-party operators to operate the facilities on its behalf.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company owned 50 seniors housing properties which are leased and operated through its TRS. A TRS is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies (including modifying intercompany leases with the TRS) and recent financial operations. In the event the Company determines that it would not be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, the Company establishes a valuation allowance which offsets the previously recognized income tax asset. Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the TRS’s assets and liabilities used for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes as well as net operating loss carryforwards.
Because of the TRS's recent operating history of losses and the on-going impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the results of operations of the Company’s SHOP assets, the Company is not able to conclude that it is more likely than not it will realize the future benefit of its deferred tax assets; thus the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance of $4.7 million as of March 31, 2022. If and when the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will recover its deferred tax assets, the Company will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in its consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). As of December 31, 2021, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $4.2 million with a full valuation allowance.
Accounting for Leases
Lessor Accounting
As a lessor of real estate, the Company has elected, by class of underlying assets, to account for lease and non-lease components (such as tenant reimbursements of property operating expenses) as a single lease component as an operating lease because (a) the non-lease components have the same timing and pattern of transfer as the associated lease component; and (b) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Additionally, only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the accounting guidance. Indirect leasing costs in connection with new or extended tenant leases, if any, are being expensed.
Lessee Accounting
For lessees, the accounting standard requires the application of a dual lease classification approach, classifying leases as either operating or finance leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, while lease expense for finance leases is recognized based on an effective interest method over the term of the lease. Also, lessees must recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Further, certain transactions where at inception of the lease the buyer-lessor accounted for the transaction as a purchase of real estate and a new lease, may now be required to have symmetrical accounting to the seller-lessee if the transaction was not a qualified sale-leaseback and accounted for as a financing transaction. For additional information and disclosures related to the Company’s operating leases, see Note 16 — Commitments and Contingencies.
CARES Act Grants
On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law and provides funding to Medicare providers in order to provide financial relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Funds provided under the program were to be used for the preparation, prevention, and medical response to COVID-19, and were designated to reimburse providers for healthcare related expenses and lost revenues attributable to COVID-19. The Company did not receive any funding from the CARES Act during the three months ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company received $5.1 million in funding

from CARES Act grants. The CARES Act grants are considered to be a grant contribution from the government. The full amounts received were recognized as a reduction of property operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations to offset the negative impacts of COVID-19. The Company has applied for additional funds, however, those applications have not yet been approved and no funds have been received since the three months ended March 31, 2021. There can be no assurance that the program will be extended or any further amounts received under currently effective or potential future government programs.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted as of January 1, 2022:
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Topic 470) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Topic 815). The new standard reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, and amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity. The standard also amends and makes targeted improvements to the related earnings per share guidance. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The standard allows for either modified or full retrospective transition methods. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2022 and determined it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Not yet Adopted as of March 31, 2022
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). Topic 848 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in Topic 848 is optional and may be elected over the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to (i) the assertion that our hedged forecasted transactions remain probable and (ii) the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of our derivatives, which will be consistent with our past presentation. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur.

Dispositions
Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
On July 1, 2020, the Company transitioned four triple-net leased properties in Texas (collectively, the “LaSalle Properties”)
from the former triple-net leased healthcare facilities segment to the SHOP segment, and the LaSalle Properties were leased to the Company’s TRS and operated and managed on the Company’s behalf by a third-party operator. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company began to actively market the LaSalle Properties for sale, and a non-binding letter of intent was signed in the fourth quarter of 2021 for an aggregate contract sales price of $12.4 million. The Company had previously recorded $34.0 million of impairment charges on the LaSalle Properties in the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company completed the sale of the LaSalle Properties in the first quarter of 2022 and recorded a loss on sale of $0.3 million.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company transferred four SHOP properties located in Michigan to the buyer at a second closing, and $0.8 million held in escrow was released to the buyer. This amount had been placed in escrow at the first closing of the transaction during the year ended December 31, 2020 when the purchase price for all 11 properties sold in the transaction was received from the buyer. The Company recorded a loss on sale of $0.2 million related to this transaction in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Assets Held for Sale and Related Impairments
When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company reflects them separately on its balance sheet and stops recognizing depreciation and amortization expense on the identified assets and estimates the sales price, net of costs to sell, of those assets. If the carrying amount of the assets classified as held for sale exceeds the estimated net sales price, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the Company’s estimate of the net sales price of the assets. For held-for-sale properties, the Company predominately uses the contract sale price as fair market value.
There were no assets held for sale as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Assets Held for Use and Related Impairments
When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property classified as held for use may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property for impairment. For the Company, the most common triggering events are (i) concerns regarding the tenant (i.e., credit or expirations) in the Company’s single tenant properties or significant vacancy in the Company’s multi-tenant properties and (ii) changes to the Company’s expected holding period as a result of business decisions or non-recourse debt maturities. If a triggering event is identified, the Company considers the projected cash flows due to various performance indicators, and where appropriate, the Company evaluates the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of the properties based on the expected cash flows on an undiscounted basis over its intended holding period. The Company makes certain assumptions in this approach including, among others, the market and economic conditions, expected cash flow projections, intended holding periods and assessments of terminal values. Where more than one possible scenario exists, the Company uses a probability weighted approach in estimating cash flows. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analysis may not be achieved, and actual losses for impairment may be realized in the future. If the undiscounted cash flows over the expected hold period are less than the carrying value, the Company reflects an impairment charge to write the asset down to its fair value.
The Company owns held for use properties for which the Company may from time to time reconsider the projected cash flows due to various performance indicators, and where appropriate, the Company evaluates the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of such properties based on the expected cash flows over its intended holding period. The Company makes certain assumptions in this approach including, among others, the market and economic conditions, expected cash flow projections, intended holding periods and assessments of terminal values. Where more than one possible scenario exists, the Company uses a probability weighted approach. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analysis may not be achieved, and actual losses for impairment may be realized in the future.
Held For Use Impairments - 2022
In April 2022, a tenant who operates seven of the Company’s MOB skilled nursing facilities in Illinois offered to purchase the properties for $50.5 million, which caused the Company to reassess its expected holding period for these properties. After considering the tenant’s offer, the terms of the existing leases, longer term prospects for these properties and potential sales prices to third parties, the Company determined that the probability weighted scenarios of projected cash flows, on an undiscounted basis over potential holding periods, may not recover the current carrying value of the properties. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the properties were impaired and recorded $10.6 million of impairment charges in the three months ended March 31, 2022 to reduce the carrying value of the properties to their estimated fair value of $50.5 million.
Held For Use Impairments - 2021
On April 30, 2021, the parties to a purchase and sale agreement for a skilled nursing facility in Wellington, Florida agreed to amend the agreement to reduce the sales price of the facility to $30.7 million. In connection with this amendment, the Company determined that the fair value had declined as of March 31, 2021 and the Company recognized an impairment charge of $0.9 million during the first quarter of 2021, which is included in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

(1)Calculated on a weighted average basis for all mortgages outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. For the LIBOR based loans, LIBOR in effect at the balance sheet date was utilized. For the Capital One MOB Loan, the effective rate does not include the effect of amortizing the amount paid to terminate the previous pay-fixed swap. See Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional details.
(2)Variable rate loan, based on 30-day LIBOR, which is fixed as a result of entering into “pay-fixed” interest rate swap agreements. The Company designates its “pay-fixed” interest rate swaps against all 30-day LIBOR debt.
(3) Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining financing. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.
(4)This mortgage was repaid in full subsequent to March 31, 2022, for additional information see Note 17 — Subsequent Events.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had pledged $0.9 billion in total real estate investments, at cost, as collateral for its $0.6 billion of gross mortgage notes payable. This real estate is not available to satisfy other debts and obligations unless first satisfying the mortgage notes payable secured by these properties. The Company makes payments of principal and interest, or interest only, depending upon the specific requirements of each mortgage note, on a monthly basis.
Some of the Company’s mortgage note agreements require compliance with certain property-level financial covenants, including debt service coverage ratios. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

Interest rate caps are not considered unless the cap is currently in effect.
(10)The Company has interest “pay-fixed” swaps which are designated as cash flow hedges on outstanding combined borrowings. To present average rates in the table above, the Company historically allocated the $50.0 million notional amount of a “pay-fixed” swap to its Revolving Credit Facility with any remaining notional amounts applied to its Capital One Fannie Mae Facility. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all $50.0 million of the “pay-fixed” swap was allocated to the Capital One Fannie Mae Facility because there were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. All other “pay-fixed” swaps were allocated to the Capital One MOB mortgage loan and the Term Loan consistently for both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2022, the carrying value of our real estate investments at cost was $2.6 billion, with $0.9 billion of this asset value pledged as collateral for mortgage notes payable, $0.6 billion of this asset value pledged to secure advances under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities and $0.9 billion of this asset value comprising the borrowing base of the Credit Facility. These real estate assets are not available to satisfy other debts and obligations, or to serve as collateral with respect to new indebtedness, unless, as applicable, the existing indebtedness associated with the property is satisfied or the property is removed from the borrowing base of the Credit Facility, which would impact availability thereunder.
Unencumbered real estate investments, at cost as of March 31, 2022 was $103.9 million, although there can be no assurance as to the amount of liquidity the Company would be able to generate from using these unencumbered assets as collateral for mortgage loans or adding them to the borrowing base of the Company’s Credit Facility. Pursuant to the August

10, 2020 amendment to the Credit Facility, any acquired properties must be added to the borrowing base of the Credit Facility, and any net proceeds from the dispositions of any unencumbered properties must be used to repay amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.
Credit Facility
On March 13, 2019, the Company entered into an amended and restated senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which consists of two components, a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a term loan (the “Term Loan”). In both March and August 2020, the Credit Facility was further amended, and the terms of the Credit Facility giving effect to those amendments are generally described below.
The Revolving Credit Facility is interest-only and matures on March 13, 2023, subject to a one-year extension at the Company’s option. The Term Loan is interest-only and matures on March 13, 2024. The total commitments under the Credit Facility are $630.0 million, including $480.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Facility includes an uncommitted “accordion feature” that may be used to increase the commitments under either component of the Credit Facility by up to an additional $370.0 million to a total of $1.0 billion.
The amount available for future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is based on either the value of the pool of eligible unencumbered real estate assets comprising the borrowing base, or satisfying a minimum debt service coverage ratio with respect to the borrowing base. The equity interests and related rights in the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries that directly own or lease the eligible unencumbered real estate assets comprising the borrowing base of the Revolving Credit Facility have been pledged for the benefit of the lenders thereunder.
As of March 31, 2022, $150.0 million was outstanding under the Term Loan, and no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The unused borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $227.5 million.
The Company is required to maintain a combination of cash, cash equivalents and availability for future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility totaling at least $50.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s amended Credit Facility certain other restrictions and conditions described below will no longer apply starting in a quarter in which the Company makes an election and, as of the day prior to the commencement of the applicable quarter, the Company has a combination of cash, cash equivalents and availability for future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility totaling at least $100.0 million, giving effect to the aggregate amount of distributions projected to be paid by the Company during the applicable quarter, and the Company’s ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value (expressed as a percentage) is less than 62.5% and the Covenant Relief Period (as defined below) has terminated (the “Commencement Quarter”). The fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021 was the first quarter that could have been the Commencement Quarter. The Company satisfied the conditions during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 in order to elect the quarter ending June 30, 2022 as the Commencement Quarter, but chose not to do so.
Until the first day of the Commencement Quarter, the Company must use all the net cash proceeds from any capital event (such as an asset sale, financing or equity issuance) to repay amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, to the extent there are any such amounts outstanding. The Company may reborrow any amounts so repaid if all relevant conditions are met, including sufficient availability for future borrowings. There can be no assurance these conditions will be met at the time of any particular borrowing.
In addition, until the Commencement Quarter, the Company has the option to have amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to either: (i) LIBOR, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 1.85% to 2.60%; or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility), plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 0.60% to 1.35%. Commencing on the first day of the Commencement Quarter, the Company will have the option to have amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to either: (a) LIBOR, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 1.60% to 2.35%; or (b) the Base Rate, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 0.35% to 1.10%. As of March 31, 2022 the Company had elected to use the LIBOR option for all of its borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Further, until the Commencement Quarter, the Company has the option to have amounts outstanding under the Term Loan bear interest at an annual rate equal to either: (i) LIBOR, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 1.80% to 2.55%; or (ii) the Base Rate, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 0.55% to 1.30%. Commencing on the first day of the Commencement Quarter, the Company will have the option to have amounts outstanding under the Term Loan bear interest at an annual rate equal to either: (a) LIBOR, plus an

applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 1.55% to 2.30%; or (b) the Base Rate, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 0.30% to 1.05%. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Credit Facility, the “floor” on LIBOR was increased from 0.00% to 0.25%. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had elected to use the LIBOR option for all its borrowings under the Credit Facility.
As of March 31, 2022, the Term Loan had an effective interest rate per annum equal to 3.98%.
Until the Commencement Quarter, the Company may not pay distributions to holders of common stock in cash or any other cash distributions (including repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock), subject to certain exceptions. These exceptions include paying dividends on the 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and the 7.125% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), or any other preferred stock the Company may issue and paying any cash distributions necessary to maintain its status as a REIT. The Company may not pay any cash distributions (including dividends on Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock) if a default or event of default exists or would result therefrom. Beginning in the Commencement Quarter, the Company will be able to pay cash distributions to holders of common stock, subject to the restrictions described below. The Company may pay cash distributions beginning in the Commencement Quarter and the aggregate distributions (as defined in the Credit Facility and including dividends on Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock) for any period of four fiscal quarters may not exceed 95% of Modified FFO (as defined in the Credit Facility) for the same period based only on fiscal quarters after the Commencement Quarter. In addition, beginning in the Commencement Quarter, the Company will be permitted to repurchase up to $50.0 million of shares of its common stock (including amounts previously repurchased during the term of the Revolving Credit Facility) if, after giving effect to the repurchases, the Company maintains cash and cash equivalents of at least $30.0 million and the Company’s ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value (expressed as a percentage) is less than 55.0%.
The Credit Facility prohibits the Company from exceeding a maximum ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value, and requires the Company to maintain a minimum ratio of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges and a minimum consolidated tangible net worth. The maximum ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value was 67.5% for the period from July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021 and is 65% thereafter unless and until the Commencement Quarter, following which that ratio will be 62.5%. The minimum ratio of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges (the “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”) was 1.50 to 1.00 for the period from July 1, 2020 through March 31, 2021, 1.55 to 1.00 for the period from April 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021, and 1.60 to 1.00 thereafter, provided that from November 12, 2021 until the earlier of December 31, 2022 and such earlier date as the Company elects to terminate this relief (such period, the “Covenant Relief Period”), the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio that the Company must satisfy based on the four most recently ended fiscal quarters will be reduced to 1.50 to 1.00 (see below for waiver issued on November 12, 2021). The minimum consolidated tangible net worth is the sum of (i) $1.2 million, plus (ii) 75% of any net offering proceeds (as defined in the Credit Facility) since the Credit Facility closed in March 2019. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a minimum consolidated tangible net worth of $1.5 million.
The Company would have been in default of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the four fiscal quarter period ended September 30, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the third amendment entered into on November 12, 2021 by the Company, the agent and the requisite lenders under the Credit Facility, the lenders waived any defaults or event of defaults under the covenant requiring the Company to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.60 to 1.00 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and any further defaults of Events of Default (as described in the Credit Facility) resulting from the breach of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant. In addition, as described above, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio the Company is required to maintain was amended from 1.60 to 1.00 to 1.50 to 1.00 for the Covenant Relief Period. There can be no assurance the Company’s lenders will consent to any amendments or waivers that may become necessary to comply with the terms of the Credit Facility in the future.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Facility. Based upon the Company’s current expectations, the Company believes it will be able to comply with these covenants during the next 12 months.

Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities
On October 31, 2016, the Company, through wholly-owned subsidiaries of the OP, entered into a master credit facility agreement relating to a secured credit facility with KeyBank (the “KeyBank Facility”) and a master credit facility agreement with Capital One for a secured credit facility with Capital One Multifamily Finance LLC, an affiliate of Capital One (the “Capital One Facility” the Capital One Facility and the KeyBank Facility are referred to herein individually as a “Fannie Mae Master Credit Facility” and together as the “Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities”). Advances made under these agreements are assigned by Capital One and KeyBank to Fannie Mae at closing for inclusion in Fannie Mae’s Multifamily MBS program.
In connection with the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities, the Company was required to enter into interest rate cap agreements. Periodically, the Company renews these interest rate cap agreements upon their expiration. Currently, the Company has nine interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate current effective notional amount of $355.2 million which caps LIBOR at 3.50% with terms through April 2024. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to these agreements and changes in value are reflected in earnings. (See Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional disclosure regarding the Company’s derivatives).
The Company may request future advances under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities by adding eligible properties to the collateral pool, subject to customary conditions, including satisfaction of minimum debt service coverage and maximum loan-to-value tests.

LIBOR Transition
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (which regulates LIBOR) announced its intentions to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority confirmed a partial extension of this deadline announcing that it will cease the publication of the one-week and two-month USD LIBOR settings immediately following December 31, 2021. The remaining USD LIBOR settings will continue to be published through June 30, 2023. The Company is not able to predict when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR market. The Company is monitoring and evaluating the risks related to changes in LIBOR availability, which include potential changes in interest paid on debt and amounts received and paid on interest rate swaps. In addition, the value of debt or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR will also be impacted as LIBOR is limited and discontinued and contracts must be transitioned to a new alternative rate. While the Company currently expects LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least through June 30, 2023 for the USD LIBOR rates currently relevant to the Company, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that time. This could occur, for example, if a sufficient number of banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. To transition from LIBOR under the Credit Facility, the Company will either utilize the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility), a SOFR-based rate as a benchmark rate as determined by the agent in

accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility, or an alternative benchmark otherwise established by the agent in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility, which will be determined with due consideration to any evolving or then prevailing market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities. The Company has mortgages, credit facilities and derivative agreements that have terms that are based on LIBOR. Certain of those agreements have alternative rates already contained in the agreements while others do not. The Company anticipates that it will either utilize the alternative rates contained in the agreements or negotiate a replacement reference rate for LIBOR with the lenders and derivative counterparties.
Note 6 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring assets and liabilities 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.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Derivative Instruments
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of March 31, 2022, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.

A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Real Estate Investments Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Real Estate Investments - Held for Use
The Company also had impaired real estate investments held for use, which were carried at fair value on a non-recurring basis on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company owned four held for use properties in Texas for which the Company had reconsidered its expected holding period and which were marketed for sale. As a result, the Company evaluated the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of the properties and recorded impairment charges to write these properties down to their estimated fair values during 2021. These properties were sold in the first quarter of 2022. See Note 3 — Real Estate investments, Net - “Assets Held for Use and Related Impairments” for additional details.
Real Estate Investments - Held for Sale
Real estate investments held for sale are carried at net realizable value on a non-recurring basis and are generally classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company did not have any real estate investments classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Financial Instruments not Measured at Fair Value
The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The fair values of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, straight-line rent receivable, net, prepaid expenses and other assets, deferred costs, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred rent and distributions payable approximate their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature.

Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, collars, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings.
The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. Additionally, in using interest rate derivatives, the Company aims to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for speculative purposes or purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company, and its affiliates, may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of its counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.
The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company currently has nine interest rate swaps that are designated as cash flow hedges. The interest rate swaps are used as part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt. The interest rate “pay-fixed” swaps have base interest rates between 1.39% and 2.32% with expirations varying through December 2026.
The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.
In connection with the refinancing of the $250.0 million loan made by Capital One, National Association and certain other lenders to certain subsidiaries of the OP on June 30, 2017 (the “MOB Loan”) during the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company terminated two interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $250.0 million for a payment of approximately $2.2 million. Following these terminations, $2.2 million was recorded in AOCI and is being recorded as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the two terminated swaps and the MOB Loan prior to its refinancing. Of the amount recorded in AOCI following these terminations, $0.2 million and $0.2 million was recorded as an increase to interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and approximately $0.2 million remained in AOCI as of March 31, 2022.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months, from April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2023, the Company estimates that $0.5 million will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) as an increase to interest expense.

Non-Designated Derivatives
These derivatives are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements to be classified as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges under a qualifying hedging relationship are recorded directly to net loss and were a gain of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and a gain of $14,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This includes both the currently effective and future starting derivatives described below.
The Company paid $85,000 to enter into an interest rate cap contract during the three months ended March 31, 2021 with an effective date of April 1, 2021 and notional value of $60.0 million to replace an expiring interest rate cap contract with a similar notional value.
The Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives with current effective notional amounts that were not designated as hedges in qualified hedging relationships as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
The Company has agreements in place with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
As of March 31, 2022, the fair value of derivatives in a net asset position including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements was $12.5 million. As of March 31, 2022, the Company is not required to post any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement provisions. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it could have been required to redeem its position under the agreements at their aggregate termination value of $12.5 million at March 31, 2022.
Note 8 — Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 100,737,224 and 99,281,754 shares of common stock outstanding, respectively, including unvested restricted shares and shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), net of share repurchases. These include shares issued as Stock Dividends since October 2020. References made to weighted-average shares and per-share amounts in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the increase of 0.10416 shares for every share outstanding due to the Stock Dividends (including the April 2022 Stock Dividend), and are noted as such throughout the accompanying financial statements and notes. See Note 1 — Organization for additional information.
On April 1, 2022, the Company published a new Estimated Per-Share NAV as of December 31, 2021, which was approved by the Board on March 28, 2022. The Company intends to publish Estimated Per-Share NAV periodically at the discretion of the Board, provided that such estimates will be made at least once annually.
Share Repurchase Program
Under the Company’s share repurchase program (the “SRP”), as amended from time to time, qualifying stockholders are able 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 significant conditions and limitations. Repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock, when requested, are at the sole discretion of the Board.
Under the SRP, subject to certain conditions, only repurchase requests made following the death or qualifying disability of stockholders that purchased shares of the Company’s common stock or received their shares from the Company (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions are considered for repurchase. Additionally, pursuant to the SRP, the repurchase price per share equals 100% of the Estimated Per-Share NAV in effect on the last day of the fiscal semester, or the six-month period ending June 30 or December 31.
On August 10, 2020, in order to strategically maintain the Company’s liquidity in light of the continued impact of COVID-19 pandemic and to comply with an amendment to the Credit Facility described in Note 5 — Credit Facilities, which restricts the Company from repurchasing shares until no earlier than the Commencement Quarter (which has not yet occurred), the Board determined that, effective on August 14, 2020, repurchases under the SRP would be suspended. The Board also rejected all repurchase requests made during the period from January 1, 2020 until the effectiveness of the suspension of the
29

SRP. No further repurchase requests under the SRP may be made unless and until the SRP is reactivated. No assurances can be made as to when or if the SRP will be reactivated.
When a stockholder requests redemption and redemption is approved by the Board, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP have the status of authorized but unissued shares.
The table below reflects the number of shares repurchased and the average price per share, under the SRP and does not include any repurchases under tender offers, cumulatively through March 31, 2022.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Pursuant to the DRIP, stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions paid in cash by the Company into shares of common stock. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased under the DRIP. The shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP have the same rights and are treated in the same manner as all of the other shares of outstanding common stock. The Board may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from reinvestment pursuant to the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend 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. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company did not issue any shares of common stock pursuant to the DRIP. Because shares of common stock are only offered and sold pursuant to the DRIP in connection with the reinvestment of distributions paid in cash, participants in the DRIP will not be able to reinvest in shares thereunder for so long as the Company pays distributions in stock instead of cash.
Stockholder Rights Plan
In May 2020, the Company announced that the Board had approved a stockholder rights plan. In December 2020, the Company issued a dividend of one common share purchase right for each share of its common stock outstanding as authorized by its board of directors in its discretion.
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. In connection with an underwritten offering in December 2019 (see details below), the Company classified and designated 1,610,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as authorized shares of its Series A Preferred Stock. In September 2020, the Board authorized the classification of 600,000 additional shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the Preferred Stock Equity Line (as defined below) and in May 2021, the Board authorized the classification of 2,530,000 additional shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the offering in May 2021 (described below). Also, in connection with an underwritten offering in October 2021 (see details below), the Company classified and designated 3,680,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock on October 4, 2021 as authorized shares of its Series B Preferred Stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, all proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility.
Series A Preferred Units
In September 2021, the Company partially funded the purchase of an MOB from an unaffiliated third party by causing the OP to issue 100,000 partnership units in the OP designated as “Series A Preferred Units”. These were recorded at fair value on the date of the acquisition at $2.6 million and were included as part of the consideration paid for the acquisition. Additionally, these are considered a non-controlling interest for the Company and were recorded as an increase in non-controlling interests on the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 13 — Non-controlling Interests for additional information).
Series B Preferred Stock
Underwritten Offering — Series B Preferred Stock
On October 6, 2021, the Company completed the initial issuance and sale of 3,200,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock in an underwritten public offering at a public offering price equal to the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. The offering generated gross proceeds of $80.0 million and net proceeds of $77.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts.
On October 12, 2021 the underwriters in the offering exercised their option to purchase additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the Company sold 430,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which generated gross proceeds of $10.8 million and resulted in net proceeds of $10.4 million after deducting underwriting discounts.
Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, all proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Facility, we may then draw on the Credit Facility to borrow any amounts so repaid if all relevant conditions are met, including sufficient availability for future borrowings. There can be no assurance these conditions will be met at the time of any particular borrowing.
Distributions and Dividends
Common Stock
On February 20, 2018, the Board authorized the rate at which the Company pays monthly distributions to stockholders, effective as of March 1, 2018, which is $0.85 per annum per share of common stock. Also, on August 13, 2020, the Board changed the Company’s common stock distribution policy in order to preserve the Company’s liquidity and maintain additional financial flexibility in light of the continued COVID-19 pandemic and to comply with an amendment to the Credit Facility described above. Under this distribution policy, distributions authorized by the Board on shares of the Company’s common stock, if and when declared, are now paid on a quarterly basis in arrears in shares of the Company’s common stock valued at the estimated per share asset value effect on the applicable date, based on a single record date to be specified at the beginning of each quarter.
The Company declared and issued Stock Dividends of 0.01349 shares of the Company’s common stock on each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock in October 2020 and January 2021 and 0.014655 shares of the Company’s common stock on each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock in April 2021, July 2021, October 2021 and January 2022. The Company declared and issued Stock Dividends of 0.014167 shares of the Company’s common stock on each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock in April 2022. The Board may further change the Company’s common stock distribution policy at any time, further reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time, and therefore distribution payments are not assured.
Note 9 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Special Limited Partner owned 9,676 and 9,537 shares, respectively, of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Advisor and its affiliates may incur and pay costs and fees on behalf of the Company. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Advisor held 90 partnership units in the OP designated as “Common OP Units”.

The limited partnership agreement of the OP (as amended from time to time, the “LPA”) allows for the special allocation, solely for tax purposes, of excess depreciation deductions of up to $10.0 million to the Advisor, a limited partner of the OP. In connection with this special allocation, the Advisor has agreed to restore a deficit balance in its capital account in the event of a liquidation of the OP and has agreed to provide a guaranty or indemnity of indebtedness of the OP.
Fees Incurred in Connection with the Operations of the Company
The Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement by and among the Company, the OP and the Advisor (as amended the “Second A&R Advisory Agreement”) took effect on February 17, 2017 and is automatically renewable for another ten-year term upon each ten-year anniversary unless the Second A&R Advisory Agreement is terminated (i) with notice of an election not to renew at least 365 days prior to the applicable tenth anniversary, (ii) in accordance with a change of control (as defined in the Second A&R Advisory Agreement) or a transition to self-management, (iii) by 67% of the independent directors of the Board for cause, without penalty, with 45 days’ notice or (iv) with 60 days prior written notice by the Advisor for (a) a failure to obtain a satisfactory agreement for any successor to the Company to assume and agree to perform obligations under the Second A&R Advisory Agreement or (b) any material breach of the Second A&R Advisory Agreement of any nature whatsoever by the Company.
On July 25, 2019, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second A&R Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement Amendment”) among the Company, the OP, and the Advisor. The Advisory Agreement Amendment was unanimously approved by the Company’s independent directors. Additional information on the Advisory Agreement Amendment is included later in this footnote under “—Professional Fees and Other Reimbursements.”
Acquisition Expense Reimbursements
The Advisor may be 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 or 0.5% of the amount advanced for a loan or other investment. Additionally, the Company reimburses the Advisor for third party acquisition expenses. Under the Second A&R Advisory Agreement, total acquisition expenses may not exceed 4.5% of the contract purchase price of the Company’s portfolio or 4.5% of the amount advanced for all loans or other investments. This threshold has not been exceeded through March 31, 2022.
Asset Management Fees and Variable Management/Incentive Fees
Under the LPA and the advisory agreement that was superseded by the original amended and restated advisory agreement and 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) to the Advisor partnership units of the OP designated as “Class B Units” (“Class B Units”). The Class B Units were intended to be profit interests and vest, and no longer are 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) another 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.
Subject to approval by the Board, the Class B Units were issued to the Advisor quarterly in arrears pursuant to the terms of the LPA. 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 was initially equal to $22.50 (the price in the Company’s initial public offering of common stock 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, 2022, the Company determined that achieving the Performance Condition was not yet considered probable for accounting purposes. The Advisor receives cash distributions on each issued Class B Unit equivalent to the cash distribution paid, if any, on the Company’s common stock. These cash distributions on 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. Stock Dividends do not cause the OP to issue additional Class B Units, rather, the redemption ratio to common stock is adjusted. The Board has previously approved the issuance of 359,250 Class B Units to the Advisor in connection with this arrangement. The Board determined in February 2018

(Unaudited)
that the Economic Hurdle had been satisfied, however none of the events have occurred, including a listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange, which would have satisfied the other vesting requirement of the Class B Units. Therefore, no expense has ever been recognized in connection with the Class B Units.
On May 12, 2015, the Company, the OP and the Advisor entered into an amendment to the then-current advisory agreement, which, among other things, provided that the Company would cease causing the OP to issue Class B Units to the Advisor with respect to any period ending after March 31, 2015.
Effective February 17, 2017, the Second A&R Advisory Agreement requires the Company to pay the Advisor a base management fee, which is payable on the first business day of each month. The fixed portion of the base management fee is equal to $1.625 million per month, while the variable portion of the base management fee is equal to one-twelfth of 1.25% of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity (including convertible equity and certain convertible debt but excluding proceeds from the DRIP) issued by the Company and its subsidiaries subsequent to February 17, 2017 per month. The base management fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash, Common OP Units or shares, or a combination thereof, the form of payment to be determined at the discretion of the Advisor and the value of any Common OP Unit or share to be determined by the Advisor acting in good faith on the basis of such quotations and other information as it considers, in its reasonable judgment, appropriate.
In addition, the Second A&R Advisory Agreement requires the Company to pay the Advisor a variable management/incentive fee quarterly in arrears equal to (1) the product of fully diluted shares of common stock outstanding multiplied by (2) (x) 15.0% of the applicable prior quarter’s Core Earnings (as defined below) per share in excess of $0.375 per share plus (y) 10.0% of the applicable prior quarter’s Core Earnings per share in excess of $0.47 per share. Core Earnings is defined as, for the applicable period, net income or loss, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding non-cash equity compensation expense, the variable management/incentive fee, acquisition and transaction related fees and expenses, financing related fees and expenses, depreciation and amortization, realized gains and losses on the sale of assets, any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items recorded in net income or loss for the applicable period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain non-cash charges, impairment losses on real estate related investments and other than temporary impairments of securities, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of tenant inducements, amortization of straight-line rent and any associated bad debt reserves, amortization of market lease intangibles, provision for loss loans, and other non-recurring revenue and expenses (in each case after discussions between the Advisor and the independent directors and approved by a majority of the independent directors). The variable management/incentive fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash or shares, or a combination of both, the form of payment to be determined in the sole discretion of the Advisor and the value of any share to be determined by the Advisor acting in good faith on the basis of such quotations and other information as it considers, in its reasonable judgment, appropriate. No variable management incentive fee was incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.
Property Management Fees
Unless the Company contracts with a third party, the Company pays the Property Manager a property management fee on a monthly basis, equal to 1.5% of gross revenues from the Company’s stand-alone single-tenant net leased properties managed and 2.5% of gross revenues from all other types of properties managed, plus market-based leasing commissions applicable to the geographic location of the property. The Company also reimburses the Property Manager for property level expenses incurred by the Property Manager. The Property Manager may charge a separate fee for the one-time initial rent-up or leasing-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, and the Property Manager is allowed to receive a higher property management fee in certain cases if approved by our Board of Directors (including a majority of the independent directors).
If the Company contracts directly with third parties for such services, the Company will pay the third party customary market fees and will pay the Property Manager an oversight fee of 1.0% of the gross revenues of the property managed by the third party. 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. If the Property Manager provides services other than those specified in the Property Management Agreement, the Company will pay the Property Manager a monthly fee equal to no more than that which the Company would pay to a third party that is not an affiliate of the Company or the Property Manager to provide the services.

On February 17, 2017, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Property Management and Leasing Agreement (the “A&R Property Management Agreement”) with the OP and the Property Manager. The A&R Property Management Agreement automatically renews for successive one-year terms unless any party provides written notice of its intention to terminate the A&R Property Management Agreement at least 90 days prior to the end of the term. Neither party provided notice of intent to terminate. The current term of the A&R Property Management Agreement expires February 17, 2023. The Property Manager may assign the A&R Property Management Agreement to any party with expertise in commercial real estate which has, together with its affiliates, over $100.0 million in assets under management.
On April 10, 2018, in connection with the Multi-Property CMBS Loan, the Company and the OP entered into a further amendment to the A&R Property Management Agreement confirming, consistent with the intent of the parties, that the borrowers under the Multi-Property CMBS Loan and other subsidiaries of the OP that own or lease the Company’s properties are the direct obligors under the arrangements pursuant to which the Company’s properties are managed by either the Property Manager or a third party overseen by the Property Manager pursuant to the A&R Property Management Agreement.
Professional Fees and Other Reimbursements
The Company reimburses the Advisor’s costs of providing administrative services including personnel costs, except for costs to the extent that the employees perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee. This reimbursement includes reasonable overhead expenses for employees of the Advisor or its affiliates directly involved in the performance of services on behalf of the Company, including the reimbursement of rent expense at certain properties that are both occupied by employees of the Advisor or its affiliates and owned by affiliates of the Advisor. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 the Company incurred $1.8 million of reimbursement expenses from the Advisor for providing administrative services. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company incurred $2.2 million of reimbursement expenses from the Advisor for providing administrative services. These reimbursement expenses are included in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
On July 25, 2019, the Company entered into the Advisory Agreement Amendment. Under the Advisory Agreement Amendment, including prior to the Advisory Agreement Amendment, the Company has been required to reimburse the Advisor for, among other things, reasonable salaries and wages, benefits and overhead of all employees of the Advisor or its affiliates, except for costs of employees to the extent that the employees perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee.
The Advisory Agreement Amendment clarifies that, with respect to executive officers of the Advisor, the Company is required to reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for the reasonable salaries and wages, benefits and overhead of the Company’s executive officers, other than for any executive officer that is also a partner, member or equity owner of AR Global, an affiliate of the Advisor.
Further, under the Advisory Agreement Amendment, the aggregate amount of expenses relating to salaries, wages and benefits, including for executive officers and all other employees of the Advisor or its affiliates (the “Capped Reimbursement Amount”), is limited to the greater of: (a) a fixed component (the “Fixed Component”) and (b) a variable component (the “Variable Component”).
Both the Fixed Component and the Variable Component increase by an annual cost of living adjustment equal to the greater of (x) 3.0% and (y) the CPI, as defined in the Advisory Agreement Amendment for the prior year ended December 31st. Initially, for the year ended December 31, 2019; (a) the Fixed Component was equal to $6.8 million and (b) the Variable Component was equal to (i) the sum of the total real estate investments, at cost as recorded on the balance sheet dated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (the “Real Estate Cost”) in the year divided by four, which amount is then (ii) multiplied by 0.29%.
If the Company sells real estate investments aggregating an amount equal to or more than 25.0% of Real Estate Cost, in one or a series of related dispositions in which the proceeds of the disposition(s) are not reinvested in Investments (as defined in the Advisory Agreement Amendment), then within 12 months following the disposition(s), the Advisory Agreement Amendment requires the Advisor and the Company to negotiate in good faith to reset the Fixed Component; provided that if the proceeds of the disposition(s) are paid to shareholders of the Company as a special distribution or used to repay loans with no intent of subsequently re-financing and re-investing the proceeds thereof in Investments, the Advisory Agreement Amendment requires these negotiations within 90 days thereof, in each case taking into account reasonable projections of reimbursable costs in light of the Company’s reduced assets.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Advisor finalized the amounts and form of the 2020 bonuses previously estimated (the “2020 Bonus Awards”) to be paid to the employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who provided administrative services during such calendar year, prorated for the time spent working on matters relating to the Company. The 2020 Bonus Awards are paid over a ten-month period from June 2021 to April 2022. The final amounts exceeded the amounts previously paid by the Company to the Advisor for estimated 2020 bonuses by approximately $1.0 million for the following reasons (i) forfeitures of bonuses related to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who were terminated or resigned prior to payment (including the Company’s former chief financial officer) and (ii) a general reduction in final bonuses for remaining personnel due to on-going negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, during the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a receivable from the Advisor of $1.0 million, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and a corresponding reduction in general administrative expenses. Pursuant to authorization by the independent members of the Company’s board of directors, the $1.0 million receivable was required to be repaid to the Company on a pro rata basis over a six-month period from November 2021 through April 2022. As of March 31, 2022, $0.8 million had been repaid by the Advisor and the remainder was repaid in April 2022.
Reimbursements for the cash portion of 2021 bonuses paid by the Advisor to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates were expensed and reimbursed on a monthly basis during 2021, and 2022 bonuses continue to be expensed and reimbursed on a monthly basis during 2022 in accordance with estimates provided by the Advisor. Generally, prior to the 2019 bonuses paid by the Advisor to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates in September 2020, employee bonuses have been formally awarded to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates in March as an all - cash award and paid out by the Advisor in the year subsequent to the year in which services were rendered to the Company.

No such participation in net sales proceeds became due and payable during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021. Any amount of net sales proceeds paid to the Special Limited Partner or any of its affiliates prior to the Company’s listing or termination or non-renewal of the advisory agreement with the Advisor, as applicable, will reduce dollar for dollar the amount of the subordinated incentive listing distribution described above and subordinated incentive termination distribution described below.

All fees will be due within 30 days after the effective date of the termination of the Advisory Agreement Amendment.
Upon a termination by either party in connection with a change of control (as defined in the Advisory Agreement Amendment), the Company would pay the Advisor a change of control fee equal to the product of four and the “Subject Fees” described below.

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 adopted an employee and director incentive restricted share plan (as amended from time to time, the “RSP”), which provides the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares of common stock (“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 shares of common stock that may be subject to awards 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 3.6 million shares (as such number may be further adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar events).
Restricted shares vest on a straight-line basis over periods of to five years and 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 are subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares.
The following table reflects the amount of restricted shares outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and activity for the period presented:
Number of Shares of Common Stock | Weighted Average Issue Price | |||||||||||||
Unvested, December 31, 2021 | 159,427 | $ | 21.21 | |||||||||||

Vested | — | — | ||||||||||||
Unvested, March 31, 2022 | 161,754 | $ | 21.11 |
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $2.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted share awards granted under the RSP. This cost will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. Compensation expense related to restricted shares was approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
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 shares issued in lieu of cash compensation 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, 2022 or 2021.

Non-Controlling Interests in the Operating Partnership
For preferred and common shares issued by the Company, the Company typically issues mirror securities with substantially equivalent economic rights between the Company and the Operating Partnership. The securities held by the Company are eliminated in consolidation.
Series A Preferred Units
The Company is the sole general partner and holds substantially all of the Series A Preferred Units.
In September 2021, the Company partially funded the purchase of an MOB from an unaffiliated third party by causing the OP to issue 100,000 Series A Preferred Units, with a face value of $25.00 per unit, which were recorded at issuance at a then fair value of $2.6 million, or $25.78 per unit, to the unaffiliated third party.
A holder of Series A Preferred Units has the right to receive cash distributions equivalent to the cash distributions, if any, on the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. After holding the Series A Preferred Units for a period of one year, a holder of Series A Preferred Units has the right to redeem Series A Preferred Units for, at the option of the OP, the corresponding number of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, or the cash equivalent. 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, 2022, Series A Preferred Unit holders were paid $46,000.
Common OP Units
The Company is the sole general partner and holds substantially all of the Common OP Units. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Advisor held 90 Common OP Units, which represents a nominal percentage of the aggregate ownership in the OP.
In November 2014, the Company partially funded the purchase of a MOB from an unaffiliated third party by causing the OP to issue 405,908 Common OP Units, with a value of $10.1 million, or $25.00 per unit, to the unaffiliated third party.

A holder of Common OP Units has the right to receive cash distributions equivalent to the cash distributions, if any, on the Company’s common stock in an amount retroactively adjusted to reflect the Stock Dividends, other stock dividends and other similar events. After holding the Common OP Units for a period of one year, a holder of Common OP Units has the right to redeem Common OP Units for, at the option of the OP, the corresponding number of shares of the Company’s common stock, as retroactively adjusted for the Stock Dividends, other stock dividends and other similar events, or the cash equivalent. 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, 2021, Common OP Unit non-controlling interest holders were not paid any cash distributions. No cash distributions were paid to non-controlling interest holders during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Stock Dividends do not cause the OP to issue additional Common OP Units, rather, the redemption ratio to common stock is adjusted. The 405,998 Common OP Units outstanding as of March 31, 2022 would be redeemable for 448,287 shares of common stock, giving effect to adjustments for the impact of the Stock Dividends through April 2022.
Non-Controlling Interests in Property Owning Subsidiaries
The Company also has investment arrangements with other unaffiliated third parties whereby such investors receive an ownership interest in certain of the Company’s property-owning subsidiaries and are 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 these arrangements 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 these arrangements and therefore the entities related to these arrangements are consolidated within the Company’s financial statements. A non-controlling interest is recorded for the investor’s ownership interest in the properties.
The following table summarizes the activity related to investment arrangements with the unaffiliated third parties:

Note 15 — Segment Reporting
The disclosures below for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are presented for the Company’s two reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes: MOBs and SHOPs. Prior to December 31, 2021, the Company had three reportable segments 1) medical office and outpatient buildings (“Former MOBs”), 2) triple-net lease healthcare properties (“Former NNN”) and 3) SHOPs. Culminating in the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company had completed several strategic property divestitures from the Company’s Former NNN segment and transitioned certain properties previously reported in the Company’s Former NNN segment into the Company’s SHOP segment. The remaining Former NNN properties are similar in nature, cash flows, and risk structure with the Former MOB segment and are managed operationally and reported collectively by the Company’s management. Accordingly, in the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company reevaluated its segments and concluded that it had two reportable segments. The Company combined the properties in its Former NNN segment with the properties in its Former MOB segment for segment reporting. Upon concluding that a change in its reporting segments has occurred, the Company retroactively restated the historical segment reporting presentation for the three years ended December 31, 2021 as presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Below, the Company has restated the prior quarterly period to conform to its current segment reporting structure for comparative purposes. Hereafter, the Company will restate other prior quarterly periods for 2021 when they are subsequently reported in later filings for comparative purposes.
The Company evaluates performance and makes resource allocations based on its two business segments. 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 as well as seniors housing properties, 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 properties, primarily providing assisted living, independent living and memory care services, which are operated through engaging independent third-party operators.
Net Operating Income
The Company evaluates the performance of the combined properties in each segment based on net operating income (“NOI”). NOI is defined as total revenues from tenants, less property operating and maintenance expense. NOI excludes all other items of expense and income included in the financial statements in calculating net income (loss). The Company uses NOI to assess and compare property level performance and to make decisions concerning the operation of the properties. The Company believes that NOI is useful as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating expenses and acquisition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss).
40
HEALTHCARE TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2022
(Unaudited)
NOI excludes certain components from net income (loss) in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset and is often incurred at the corporate level. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. NOI presented by the Company may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. The Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company’s operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s liquidity or ability to pay distributions.

Note 16 — Commitments and Contingencies
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had seven operating and six direct financing lease agreements. The seven operating leases have durations, including assumed renewals, ranging from 20.6 years to 85.5 years, excluding an adjacent parking lot lease with a term of 2.5 years. The Company did not enter into any additional ground leases during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s balance sheet included ROU assets and liabilities of $7.9 million and $8.1 million, respectively, which are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, respectively. In determining operating ROU assets and lease liabilities for the Company’s existing operating leases upon the adoption of the lease guidance issued in 2019, as well as for new operating leases in the current period, the Company was required to estimate an appropriate incremental borrowing rate on a fully-collateralized basis for the terms of the leases. Because the terms of the Company’s ground leases are significantly longer than the terms of borrowings available to the Company on a fully-collateralized basis, the Company’s estimate of this rate required significant judgment.
The Company’s ground operating leases have a weighted-average remaining lease term, including assumed renewals, of 34.7 years and a weighted-average discount rate of 7.37% as of March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid cash of $0.2 million for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities and recorded expense of $0.2 million on a straight-line basis in accordance with the current accounting guidance. The Company paid cash of $0.2 million for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities and recorded expense of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The lease expense is recorded in property operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The following table reflects the base cash rental payments due from the Company as of March 31, 2022:

Note 17 — 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:
Dividend Declaration
On April 1, 2022, the Company announced the declaration of the Stock Dividend of 0.014167 shares of the Company’s common stock, on each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Stock Dividend was issued on April 18, 2022 to holders of record of the Company’s common stock at the close of business on April 11, 2022.
Mortgage Repayment
In April 2022, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding under its Palm Valley mortgage note. The mortgage had a balance of $2.8 million, bore interest at a fixed rate of 4.15% and would have matured in June 2023.

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 are set forth in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as well as Part II — Other Information, Item IA — Risk Factors below.
Overview
We are an externally managed entity that for U.S. federal income tax purposes has qualified as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). We acquire, own and manage a diversified portfolio of healthcare-related real estate focused on medical office and other healthcare-related buildings and senior housing operating properties. Prior to December 31, 2021, we had three reportable segments 1) Former MOBs, 2) Former NNN and 3) SHOPs. As a result of strategic property divestitures in our Former NNN segment, and transitions of certain properties reported in our Former NNN segment into our SHOP segment, we have combined the properties in our Former NNN segment with the properties in our Former MOB segment to form a single set of MOBs. As a result, effective December 31, 2021 we determined that we have two reportable segments, with activities related to investing in MOBs and SHOPs. Upon concluding that a change in its reporting segments has occurred, the Company retroactively restated the historical segment reporting presentation for the three years ended December 31, 2021 as presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Below, the Company has restated the prior quarterly period to conform to its current segment reporting structure for comparative purposes. Hereafter, the Company will restate other prior quarterly periods for 2021 when they are subsequently reported in later filings for comparative purposes. As of March 31, 2022, we owned 198 properties located in 33 states and comprised of 9.0 million rentable square feet.
Substantially all of our business is conducted through the OP, a Delaware limited partnership, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Our Advisor manages our day-to-day business with the assistance of Healthcare Trust Properties, LLC (our “Property Manager”). Our Advisor and Property Manager are under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (“AR Global”) and these related parties receive compensation and fees for providing services to us. We also reimburse these entities for certain expenses they incur in providing these services to us. Healthcare Trust Special Limited Partnership, LLC (the “Special Limited Partner”), which is also under common control with AR Global, also has an interest in us through ownership of interests in our OP.
We operate in two reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes: MOBs and SHOPs. In our MOB operating segment, we own, manage, and lease single and multi-tenant MOBs where 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. Our Property Manager or third party managers manage our MOBs. In our SHOP segment, we invest in seniors housing properties using the RIDEA structure. As of March 31, 2022, we had four eligible independent contractors operating 50 SHOPs (not including two land parcels). All of our properties across both business segments are located throughout the United States. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we terminated one of our independent contractors who managed 20 SHOPs and those management duties were assumed by other existing eligible independent contractors effective March 1, 2022.
45
Since October 2020, we have declared and paid quarterly dividends solely in shares of our common stock. Stock Dividends paid in January 2021 were equal to 0.01349 shares of common stock on each share of outstanding common stock. The Stock Dividends paid in April 2021, July 2021, October 2021 and January 2022 were equal to 0.014655 shares of common stock on each share of outstanding common stock. The Stock Dividends paid in April 2022 were equal to 0.014167 shares of common stock on each share of outstanding common stock. Dividends payable entirely in shares of our common stock are treated in a fashion similar to a stock split for accounting purposes specifically related to per-share calculations for the current and prior periods. The aggregate impact of these stock dividends was an increase of 0.10416 shares, cumulatively, for every one share of common stock. No additional shares, except for the dividends paid in the form of additional shares of common stock, were issued during the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Additionally, other references to weighted-average shares outstanding and per-share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the stock dividends and are noted as such throughout the accompanying financial statements and footnotes.
On April 1, 2022, we published a new Estimated Per-Share NAV equal to $15.00 as of December 31, 2021. Our previous Estimated Per-Share NAV was equal to $14.50 as of December 31, 2020. The Estimated Per-Share NAV has not been adjusted since publication and will not be adjusted until the Board determines a new Estimated Per-Share NAV. Dividends paid in the form of additional shares of common stock will, all things equal, cause the value of each share of common stock to decline because the number of shares outstanding will increase when dividends paid in stock are issued; however, because each stockholder will receive the same number of new shares, the total value of our common stockholder’s investment, all things equal, will not change assuming no sales or other transfers. We intend to publish Estimated Per-Share NAV periodically at the discretion of the Board, provided that such estimates will be made at least once annually unless we list our common stock.
Management Update on the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 global pandemic has created several risks and uncertainties that have had and may continue to have an impact on our business, including our financial condition, future results of operations and our liquidity. Negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have caused some of our tenants to be unable to make rent payments to us timely, or at all. There may be a decline in the demand for tenants to lease real estate, as well as a negative impact on rental rates. The extent to which the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, including the outbreaks that have occurred and may occur in markets where we own properties, impacts our operations and those of our tenants and third-party operators, will continue to depend on future developments, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, and the actions taken to contain the COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, but could be material.
As of March 31, 2022, our MOB segment had an occupancy of 91.3% with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 5.0 years, (based on annualized straight-line rent as of March 31, 2022), and our SHOP segment had an occupancy of 75.9% weighted by unit count. Since the second quarter of 2021, we experienced relative stability in occupancy and operating costs in our SHOP portfolio, however, during the first quarter of 2022, we needed to increase our use of temporary contract labor and agencies in response to a shortage of workers, largely due to, among other things, the spread of more transmissible COVID-19 variants such as the Omicron variant, increased inflation raising the cost of labor generally and increased demand for qualified personnel. Doing so increased operating costs in our SHOP segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 by $2.2 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Future developments in the course of the pandemic, inflation increases, labor shortages and supply chain disruptions may cause further adverse impacts on our occupancy and cost levels. Occupancy and operating costs in our MOB segment was relatively stable during these quarters.
The negative impact of the pandemic on our results of operations and cash flows has impacted and could continue to impact our ability to comply with covenants in our Credit Facility, and the amount available for future borrowings thereunder. We would have been in default of a covenant contained in the Credit Facility requiring us to maintain a certain minimum fixed charge coverage ratio for the four fiscal quarter period ended September 30, 2021. We entered into an amendment to our Credit Facility on November 12, 2021, in which the lenders waived any defaults or event of defaults under the covenant requiring us to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.60 to 1.00 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and reduced this covenant to 1.50 to 1.00 until the earlier of December 31, 2022 and the date on which we elect to terminate this relief, among other changes (see Liquidity and Capital Resources section below and see Note 5 — Credit Facilities to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information). There can be no assurance our lenders will consent to any further amendments or waivers that may become necessary to comply with the terms of the Credit Facility.
For additional information on the risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, please see Item 1A. “Risk Factors — We are subject to risks associated with a pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of a contagious disease, such as the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Rent Collections
We experienced delays in rent collection in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. We have taken several steps to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on our business. We have been in direct contact with our tenants and operators since the crisis began, cultivating open dialogue and deepening the fundamental relationships that we have
46
carefully developed through prior transactions and historic operations. We have achieved mutually agreeable solutions with our MOB tenants and in some cases, during the year ended December 31, 2020, we executed lease amendments wherein we agreed to defer payment. Based on this approach and the overall financial strength and creditworthiness of our tenants, we believe that we have had positive results in our cash rent collections during this pandemic. We have not entered into any rent deferral agreements with any of our tenants since the year ended December 31, 2020, and all amounts previously deferred under prior rent deferral agreements have been collected.
We collected approximately 100% of the original cash rent due for the fourth quarter of 2020 and throughout 2021 and 2022 in our MOB segment. Cash rental payments for our 50 SHOPs are primarily paid by the residents through private payer insurance or directly, and to a lesser extent, by government reimbursement programs such as Medicaid and Medicare, therefore we have not provided the amount of quarterly cash rent collected for our SHOP segment.
“Original cash rent” refers to contractual rents on a cash basis due from tenants as stipulated in their original executed lease agreement at inception or as amended, prior to any rent deferral agreement. We calculate “original cash rent collections” by comparing the total amount of rent collected during the period to the original cash rent due. Total rent collected during the period includes both original cash rent due and payments made by tenants pursuant to rent deferral agreements. Eliminating the impact of deferred rent paid, we collected nearly 100% of original cash rent due for each quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022.
A deferral agreement is an executed or approved amendment to an existing lease to defer a certain portion of cash rent due to a future period. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we granted rent deferrals for an aggregate of $0.4 million or less than 1% of original cash rent due for the year. No additional rent was deferred during the year ended December 31, 2021 or during the three months ended March 31 2022.
We have also granted rent concessions which serve to reduce revenue in our SHOP segment. We offered $0.1 million and $0.4 million of rent concessions during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Seniors Housing Properties
In early March 2020, we implemented preventative actions at all our seniors housing properties in our SHOP segment, including restrictions on visitation except in very limited and controlled circumstances, social distancing measures, and the screening of all persons entering these facilities. Some of the additional steps we have taken to address the COVID-19 pandemic include enhanced training for staff members, the implementation of Telehealth to help residents be safe while keeping appointments with important, but non-emergency, health providers, virtual tours for potential new residents, and agreements between some of our facilities and local lab partners to provide testing services.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we experienced a significant increase in labor costs in our SHOP segment, largely due to, among other things, the spread of more transmissible COVID-19 variants such as the Omicron variant, increased inflation raising the cost of labor generally and increased demand for qualified personnel. As a result, we were forced to turn to temporary contract labor and agencies to supply us with the appropriate personnel numbers we need in order to successfully run our SHOPs. At our Same Store SHOPs, we recorded over $2.2 million in temporary contract labor and agency-related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to almost zero temporary contract labor and agency-related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Using temporary contract labor and agencies is more costly to us than our normal staffing procedures, and therefore our cost for labor at our Same Store SHOPs increased $2.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Temporary contract labor and agency costs accounted for over 100% of this increase. Because occupancy levels have not yet recovered to their pre-pandemic rates (as noted in the table below), our results of operations in our SHOP segment have been significantly adversely affected by the increase in our labor costs. There is no guarantee our occupancy levels in our SHOP segment will increase and return to their pre-pandemic levels or that we will be able to raise resident fee levels at a rate that is commensurate with these increases in labor costs. Therefore, our results of operations and financial condition in our SHOP segment could continue to be negatively impacted if the national labor shortage continues.
Occupancy in our SHOP portfolio trended lower from 85.1% in December 31, 2019 to a low of 72.0% as of March 31, 2021, and has subsequently begun to recover, reaching 75.9% as of March 31, 2022. The below table presents SHOP occupancy since the onset of our downward occupancy trends, which was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020:

The declines in revenue we experienced during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 as compared to March 31, 2021, were primarily attributable to our SHOP disposals which reduced the average number of rentable units over the periods, partially offset by an increase in occupancy and rental rate increases on some of the properties effective in January 2022. In addition, starting in mid-March of 2020, operating costs began to rise materially, including for services, labor and personal protective equipment and other supplies, as our operators took appropriate actions to protect residents and caregivers. During the first quarter of 2022, these trends became more prominent as we relied more on the use of contract labor and agencies as noted above. At the SHOP facilities, we generally bear these cost increases, which were partially offset by funds received under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), and to a lesser extent, cost recoveries for personal protective equipment from residents. See below for additional information on the CARES Act. There can be no assurance, however, that future developments in the course of the pandemic, inflation increases, labor shortages and supply chain disruptions will not cause further adverse impacts to our occupancy and cost levels, and these trends may continue to impact us and have a material adverse effect on our revenues and income in future quarters. We believe that our vaccination participation achieved in 2021 for both residents and staff populations mitigated certain adverse impacts of COVID-19. Furthermore, as infections decline and more vaccinations and boosters are administered during 2022, our occupancy may further increase as it has begun to do during the first quarter of 2022. However, there can be no assurance as to when or if we will be able to approach pre-pandemic levels of occupancy due to, among other factors, the ongoing vaccine hesitancy and resistance in certain segments of the population and the recent spread of more transmissible COVID-19 variants such as the Delta and Omicron variants.
The pandemic raises the risk of an elevated level of resident exposure to illness and restrictions on move-ins at our SHOPs, which has and could also continue to adversely impact occupancy and revenues as well as increase costs. We believe that the actions we have taken help reduce the incidences of COVID-19 at our properties, but there can be no assurance in this regard. There have been some incidences of COVID-19 among the residents and staff at certain of our seniors housing properties. Further incidences, or the perception that outbreaks may occur, could materially and adversely affect our revenues and income, as well as cause reputational harm to us and our tenants, managers and operators.
The extent to which the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, including the outbreaks that have occurred and may occur in markets where we own properties, impacts our operations and those of our tenants and third-party operators, will continue to depend on future developments, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, and the actions taken to contain the COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, but could be material.
On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law and it provides funding to Medicare providers in order to provide financial relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Funds provided under the program were to be used for the preparation, prevention, and medical response to COVID-19, and were designated to reimburse providers for healthcare related expenses and lost revenues attributable to COVID-19. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021 we received $5.1 million from CARES Act grants. Previously, we received $3.6 million in grants during the year ended December 31, 2020. We have applied for additional funds under the CARES Act, however, there can be no assurance that any funds requested will actually be received. We consider the funds to be a grant contribution from the government and the full amount was recognized as a reduction of property operating expenses in our consolidated statement of operations during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. There can be no assurance that the program will be extended or any further amounts received under currently effective or potential future government programs.

Net Operating Income
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure used by us to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. NOI is equal to revenue from tenants less property operating and maintenance expenses. NOI excludes all other financial statement amounts included in net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders. We believe NOI provides useful and relevant information because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents such items on an unlevered basis. See Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Non-GAAP Financial Measures included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for additional disclosure and a reconciliation to our net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders.

Revenues from tenants is primarily related to contractual rent received from tenants in our MOBs. It also includes operating expense reimbursements which generally increase in proportion with the increase in property operating and maintenance expenses in our MOB segment. Pursuant to many of our lease agreements in our MOBs, tenants are required to pay their pro rata share of property operating and maintenance expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors, in addition to base rent.
Property operating and maintenance expenses relate to the costs associated with our properties, including real estate taxes, utilities, repairs, maintenance, and unaffiliated third-party property management fees.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the MOB segment contributed a $2.2 million increase in NOI as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily as a result of our 17 MOB acquisitions during the period from January 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022, partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in NOI from our Same Store properties and by a $0.4 million decrease in NOI from our Dispositions.

(1)Our SHOP segment included 52 Same Store properties, including two land parcels.
(2)Our SHOP segment included zero Acquisition properties.
(3)Our SHOP segment included nine Disposition properties.
(4)Our SHOP segment included 52 properties, including two land parcels.
Revenue from tenants within our SHOP segment are 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. Property operating and maintenance expenses relates to the costs associated with staffing to provide care for the residents in our SHOPs, as well as food, marketing, real estate taxes, management fees paid to our third party operators, and costs associated with maintaining the physical site.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenues from tenants decreased by $1.8 million in our SHOP segment as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 which was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue of $3.3 million due to our Disposition properties, partially offset by an increase in revenue of $1.5 million due to our Same Store properties.
52
The increase to our Same Store revenue was primarily driven by higher and recovering occupancy in the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to lower, declining occupancy in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Our revenues also improved in the three months ended March 31, 2022 from higher leasing rates.
We also generated a portion of our SHOP revenue from skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) (which include ancillary revenue from non-residents) at two of our Same Store SHOPs and one of our Disposition SHOPs. This revenue was $1.8 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 and was not significant during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 as a result of transitioning our SNF units to other types of units at our Same Store properties, as well as from disposing of our SNF in Wellington, Florida in May 2021. This property’s results are presented in Disposition properties in the table above. As a result of these unit transitions and dispositions, we do not expect ancillary revenue to be a significant source of revenue in future periods.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, property operating and maintenance expenses increased $3.9 million in our SHOP segment as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to an increase of $6.9 million in our Same Store properties, partially offset by a decrease of $3.0 million from our Dispositions.
The total increase in Same Store operating costs mainly related to the non-recurrence in 2022 of funds received through the CARES Act of $5.1 million which offset costs incurred from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which totaled $0.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The full amount of the CARES Act funds was recognized as a reduction to our Same Store property operating expenses in the table above for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. There can be no assurance that the program will be extended or any further amounts received. See the “Overview — Management Update on the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic” section above for additional information on the risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and management’s actions taken in response. Additionally, we were impacted by labor cost increases due to contract labor and agency costs of $2.2 million, as well as by overall inflation on wages and supplies in the three months ended March 31, 2022. For additional information on the risks and uncertainties associated with increases in inflation and labor costs, see Inflation and Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors sections below.
Other Results of Operations
Impairment Charges
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred $10.6 million of impairment charges to reduce the carrying value of seven SNF properties located in Illinois in our MOB segment to their estimated fair value as determined by a $50.5 million offer to purchase these properties made by the tenant.
We incurred $0.9 million of impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2021 due to an amended purchase
and sale agreement (“PSA”) which reduced the sales price of the skilled nursing facility in Wellington, Florida to $30.7 million.
See Note 3 — Real Estate Investments to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the impairment charges.
Operating Fees to Related Parties
Operating fees to related parties were $6.3 million and $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively.
Our Advisor and Property Manager are paid for asset management and property management services for managing our properties on a day-to-day basis. We pay a base management fee equal to $1.6 million per month, while the variable portion of the base management fee is equal, per month, to one twelfth per month of 1.25% of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised subsequent to February 17, 2017. Asset management fees were $5.5 million and $5.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in asset management fees was due to an increase in variable asset management fees from equity offerings in the fourth quarter of 2021 which were incurred in the first quarter of 2022. Variable asset management fees will further increase with additional equity offerings, if any. There were no incentive fees incurred in either of the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.
Property management fees were $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Property management fees increase or decrease in direct correlation with gross revenues of the properties managed and depending on the mix of properties managed, as the fee payable for different types of properties varies.
See Note 9 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which provides detail on our fees and expense reimbursements.
Acquisition and Transaction Related Expenses
Acquisition and transaction related expenses were $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was due to $0.1 million of prepayment

penalties on our mortgage repayments, $0.1 million of termination fees paid to former SHOP operators, and $0.3 million of fees due to dead deal costs.

General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.2 million to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, which includes $2.2 million and $2.6 million (before professional fees described below) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively, incurred in expense reimbursements. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by $0.5 million of decreased audit fees, $0.3 million of decreased legal fees, and $0.4 million of decreased miscellaneous expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $0.3 million to $20.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $20.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to reduced depreciation and amortization as a result of our dispositions partially offset by additional depreciation from our recent acquisitions.
Losses on Sale of Real Estate Investments
During the third quarter of 2021, we began to actively market the LaSalle Properties for sale, and a non-binding letter of intent was signed in the fourth quarter of 2021 for an aggregate contract sales price of $12.4 million. We completed the sale of the LaSalle Properties in the first quarter of 2022 and recorded a loss on sale of $0.3 million. We had previously recorded $34.0 million of impairment charges on the LaSalle Properties in the year ended December 31, 2021.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we transferred the remaining four Michigan SHOPs to the buyer at a second closing in the first quarter of 2021 and as a result, we recorded a loss on sale of $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by $0.6 million to $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $12.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in interest expense resulted from lower average balances of amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022 our outstanding debt obligations were $1.1 billion at a weighted average interest rate of 3.47% per year. As of March 31, 2021, we had total borrowings of $1.2 billion, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.55% per year.
Our interest expense in future periods will vary based on our level of future borrowings and the cost of borrowings, among other factors. Recent and continuing increases in interest rates may adversely impact the terms on which we may borrow in the future and thus our results of operations.
Interest and Other Income
Interest and other income includes income from our investment securities and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents held during the period. Interest and other income was approximately $12,000 and $52,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Gains on Non-Designated Derivatives
The gain in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three months ended March 31, 2021 on non-designated derivative instruments related to interest rate caps that are designed to protect us from adverse interest rate changes in connection with our Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities, which have floating interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
Income taxes generally relate to our SHOPs, which are leased by our TRS. We recorded an income tax expense of $0.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Because of our TRS’s recent operating history of losses and the on-going impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the results of operations of our SHOP assets, in the third quarter of 2020, we were not able to conclude that it is more likely than not we will realize the future benefit of our deferred tax assets and recorded a full valuation allowance. Since that time, our TRS’s operating performance has not significantly improved and thus we have recorded a 100% valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2022. If and when we believe it is more likely than not that we will recover our deferred tax assets, we will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
54
Net Loss (Income) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests was approximately $49,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and net income attributable to non-controlling interests was $46,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. These amounts represent the portion of our net loss that is related to the Series A Preferred Units held by third parties (issued in connection with a property acquisition in September, 2021), Common OP Units held by third parties, and non-controlling interest holders in our subsidiaries that own certain properties.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was $5.9 million. The level of cash flows used in or provided by operating activities is affected by, among other things, 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 inflows include non-cash items of $9.1 million (net loss of $23.4 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 discounts, bad debt expense, equity-based compensation, gain on non-designated derivatives and impairment charges), a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $1.0 million and an increase in deferred rent and other liabilities of $1.8 million. These cash inflows were partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2.0 million related to timing of payments for real estate taxes, property operating expenses and professional and legal fees and by a net increase in unbilled receivables recorded in accordance with straight-line basis accounting of $0.4 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $14.0 million. Cash inflows include non-cash items of $11.5 million (net loss of $11.4 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 discounts, bad debt expense, equity-based compensation, gain on non-designated derivatives and impairment charges), a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $2.7 million and an increase in deferred rent and other liabilities of $1.2 million. These cash inflows were partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1.2 million related to timing of payments for real estate taxes, property operating expenses and professional and legal fees and a net increase in unbilled receivables recorded in accordance with straight-line basis accounting of $0.2 million.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $8.4 million. The cash used in investing activities included $11.8 million from the sale of the four LaSalle Properties and $3.3 million in capital expenditures.
Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $10.9 million. The cash used in investing activities included $6.7 million for the acquisition of one property and $4.0 million in capital expenditures.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities of $6.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 related to cash outflows of payments of deferred financing costs of $40,000 and dividends paid to preferred stockholders of $1.8 million, payments for derivative instruments of $39,000 and principal payments on mortgages of $3.4 million.
Net cash used in financing activities of $1.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 related to cash outflows of payments of deferred financing costs of $0.0 million and dividends paid to preferred stockholders of $0.7 million, payments for derivative instruments of $0.1 million and principal payments on mortgages of $0.3 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal demands for cash are for acquisitions, capital expenditures, the payment of our operating and administrative expenses, debt service obligations (including principal repayment), and dividends to holders of our Series A Preferred Stock and holders of our Series B Preferred Stock. We closely monitor our current and anticipated liquidity position relative to our current and anticipated demands for cash and believe that we have sufficient current liquidity and access to additional liquidity to meet our financial obligations for at least the next 12 months. Our future liquidity requirements, and available liquidity, however, depend on many factors, such as the on-going impact of COVID-19 on our tenants and operators. Further, recent and continuing increases in inflation brought about by labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and increases in interest rates may adversely impact our results of operations and thus our liquidity. Moreover, these increases in the rate of inflation, the ongoing war in Ukraine and related sanctions, supply chain disruptions and increases in interest rates, may also impact our tenants’ ability to pay rent and hence our results of operations and liquidity. For more information about the risks and uncertainties associated with inflation, the ongoing war in Ukraine and related sanctions, and labor shortages and labor costs, please see the sections Inflation and Part II – Item 1A. Risk Factors below.
55
We expect to fund our future short-term operating liquidity requirements, including dividends to holders of Series A Preferred Stock and holders of Series B Preferred Stock, through a combination of current cash on hand, net cash provided by our property operations and draws on the Revolving Credit Facility, which may include amounts reborrowed following the repayments we were or are required to make thereunder.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $66.4 million and $59.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Our ability to use this cash on hand is restricted. Under our Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a combination of cash, cash equivalents and availability for future borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility totaling at least $50.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, $227.5 million was available for future borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. Certain other restrictions and conditions described below, including those on paying cash dividends, will no longer apply starting in the “Commencement Quarter” which is a quarter in which we make an election and, as of the day prior to the commencement of the applicable quarter we have a combination of cash, cash equivalents and availability for future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility totaling at least $100.0 million, giving effect to the aggregate amount of distributions projected to be paid by us during the applicable quarter, and our ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value (expressed as a percentage) is less than 62.5%, and the Covenant Relief Period has terminated. The fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021 was the first quarter that could have been the Commencement Quarter. We satisfied the conditions during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 in order to elect the quarter ending June 30, 2022 as the Commencement Quarter, but chose not to do so. There can be no assurance as to if, or when, we will elect to do so, including to the extent we may be unable to satisfy these conditions in future periods. We may not pay distributions to holders of common stock in cash or any other cash distributions (including repurchases of shares of our common stock) on our common stock until the Commencement Quarter. Moreover, beginning in the Commencement Quarter, we may only pay cash distributions provided that the aggregate distributions (as defined in the Credit Facility and including dividends on Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock) for any period of four fiscal quarters do not exceed 95% of Modified FFO (as defined in the Credit Facility) for the same period based only on fiscal quarters after the Commencement Quarter.
Our Credit Facility also restricts our uses of liquidity. Until the first day of the Commencement Quarter, we must use all of the net cash proceeds from any capital event (such as an asset sale, financing or equity issuance) to repay amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, to the extent there are any such amounts outstanding. We may reborrow any amounts so repaid if all relevant conditions are met, including sufficient availability for future borrowings. There can be no assurance these conditions will be met. The availability for future borrowings under the Credit Facility is calculated using the adjusted net operating income of the real estate assets comprising the borrowing base, and availability has been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by the decreases in cash rent collected from our tenants and income from our operators that have resulted from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and may persist for some time.
Financings
As of March 31, 2022, our total debt leverage ratio (total debt divided by total gross asset value) was approximately 40.3%. Net debt totaled $1.0 billion, which represents gross debt ($1.1 billion) less cash and cash equivalents ($66.4 million). Gross asset value totaled $2.6 billion, which represents total real estate investments, at cost ($2.6 billion) net of gross market lease intangible liabilities ($23.1 million). Impairment charges are already reflected within gross asset value.
As of March 31, 2022, we had total gross borrowings of $1.1 billion, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.5%. As of December 31, 2021, we had total gross borrowings of $1.1 billion at a weighted average interest rate of 3.44%. As of March 31, 2022, the carrying value of our real estate investments, at cost was $2.6 billion, with $0.9 billion of this asset value pledged as collateral for mortgage notes payable, $0.6 billion of this asset value pledged to secure advances under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities and $0.9 billion of this asset value comprising the borrowing base of the Credit Facility. These real estate assets are not available to satisfy other debts and obligations, or to serve as collateral with respect to new indebtedness, as applicable unless the existing indebtedness associated with the property is satisfied or the property is removed from the borrowing base of the Credit Facility, which would impact availability thereunder.
We expect to utilize proceeds from our Credit Facility to fund future property acquisitions, as well as, subject to the terms of our Credit Facility, other sources of funds that may be available to us. These actions may require us to add some or all of our unencumbered properties to the borrowing base under our Credit Facility. Unencumbered real estate investments, at cost as of March 31, 2022 was $103.9 million. There can be no assurance as to the amount of liquidity we would be able to generate from adding any of the unencumbered assets we own to the borrowing base of our Credit Facility. Pursuant to the Credit Facility, any resulting net proceeds from dispositions prior to the Commencement Quarter must be used to prepay amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, to the extent there are any such amounts outstanding.
Mortgage Notes Payable
As of March 31, 2022, we had $588.9 million in mortgage notes payable outstanding. In April 2022, we repaid all amounts outstanding under our Palm Valley mortgage note. Future scheduled principal payments on our mortgage notes payable for the remainder of 2022 are $0.8 million.
56
Credit Facility
Our Credit Facility consists of two components, the Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan. The Revolving Credit Facility is interest-only and matures on March 13, 2023, subject to one one-year extension at our option. Our Term Loan is interest-only and matures on March 13, 2024. Loans under our Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage costs. Any amounts repaid under our Term Loan may not be re-borrowed.
The total commitments under the Credit Facility are $630.0 million including $480.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Facility includes an uncommitted “accordion feature” that may, subject to conditions, be used to increase the commitments under either component of the Credit Facility by up to an additional $370.0 million to a total of $1.0 billion. As of March 31, 2022, $150.0 million was outstanding under our Term Loan, and no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The unused borrowing availability under the Credit Facility was $227.5 million as of March 31, 2022. The amount available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility is based on either the value of the pool of eligible unencumbered real estate assets comprising the borrowing base, or a minimum debt service coverage ratio with respect to the borrowing base. Both of these amounts are calculated using the adjusted net operating income of the real estate assets comprising the borrowing base, and, therefore, availability under our Credit Facility has been adversely affected by the decreases in cash rent collected from our tenants and income from our operators due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and may continue to be adversely affected. See also the discussion above regarding the need to maintain certain levels of liquidity until the Commencement Quarter.
The equity interests and related rights in our wholly owned subsidiaries that directly own or lease the eligible unencumbered real estate assets comprising the borrowing base of the Revolving Credit Facility are pledged for the benefit of the lenders thereunder. The Credit Facility also contains a subfacility for letters of credit of up to $25.0 million. The applicable margin used to determine the interest rate under both the Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility components of the Credit Facility varies based on our leverage. As of March 31, 2022, the Term Loan had an effective interest rate per annum equal to 3.98%. The Credit Facility prohibits us from exceeding a maximum ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value, and requires us to maintain a minimum ratio of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges (the “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”) on a quarterly basis and a minimum consolidated tangible net worth. We entered into an amendment to our Credit Facility on November 12, 2021. We would have been in default of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the four fiscal quarter period ended September 30, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of a third amendment entered into on November 12, 2021 by us, the agent and the requisite lenders under the Credit Facility, the lenders waived any defaults or event of defaults under the covenant requiring us to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.60 to 1.00 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and any further defaults or Events of Default (as defined in the Credit Facility) resulting from the breach of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant. In addition, as described above, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio we are required to maintain was reduced from 1.60 to 1.00 to 1.50 to 1.00 until the earlier of December 31, 2022, and such earlier date as we elect to terminate this relief. There can be no assurance our lenders will consent to any amendments or waivers that may become necessary to comply with the terms of the Credit Facility in the future. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Facility. Based upon our current expectations, we believe we will be able to comply with these covenants during the next 12 months.
Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities
As of March 31, 2022, $354.7 million was outstanding under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities. We may request future advances under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities by adding eligible properties to the collateral pool subject to customary conditions, including satisfaction of minimum debt service coverage and maximum loan-to-value tests. We do not expect to draw any further amounts on the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the Fannie Mae Master Credit facilities bear annual interest at a rate that varies on a monthly basis and is equal to the sum of the current LIBOR for one month U.S. dollar-denominated deposits and 2.62%, with a combined floor of 2.62%. The Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities mature on November 1, 2026. Future scheduled principal payments on our Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities for 2022 are $2.5 million.
Capital Expenditures
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, our capital expenditures were $3.3 million, of which $0.5 million related to our MOB segment and $3.5 million related to our SHOP segment. We anticipate this rate of capital expenditures for the MOB and SHOP segments throughout 2022, however, the recent economic uncertainty created by the COVID-19 global pandemic will continue to impact our decisions on the amount and timing of future capital expenditures.
Acquisitions — Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we did not acquire any properties.
Acquisitions — Subsequent to March 31, 2022
We have not acquired any properties subsequent to March 31, 2022.
57
Dispositions — Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we completed the sale of the LaSalle Properties for a contract sales price of $12.4 million. We had previously recorded $34.0 million of impairment charges on the LaSalle Properties in the year ended December 31, 2021.
Dispositions — Subsequent to March 31, 2022
Subsequent to March 31, 2022 we did not dispose of any properties.
Share Repurchase Program
Under the Credit Facility, we are restricted from repurchasing shares until the Commencement Quarter. Thus, the Board suspended repurchases under the SRP effective August 14, 2020. No further repurchase requests under the SRP may be made unless and until the SRP is reactivated. There can be no assurance, however, as to whether our SRP will be reactivated or on what terms. Beginning in the Commencement Quarter, we will be permitted to repurchase up to $50.0 million of shares of our common stock (including amounts previously repurchased during the term of the Revolving Credit Facility) if, after giving effect to the repurchases, we maintain cash and cash equivalents of at least $30.0 million and our ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value (expressed as a percentage) is less than 55.0%.
No assurances can be made as to when or if our SRP will be reactivated.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This section discusses the non-GAAP financial measures we use to evaluate our performance including Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”) and NOI. While NOI is a property-level measure, MFFO is based on our total performance as a company and therefore reflects the impact of other items not specifically associated with NOI such as, interest expense, general and administrative expenses and operating fees to related parties. Additionally, NOI as defined herein, includes straight-line rent which is excluded from MFFO. A description of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is net income, are provided below:
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 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 calculate FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established over time by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in a White Paper approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT effective in December 2018 (the “White Paper”). The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s definition.
We believe that the use of FFO provides a more complete understanding of our operating performance to investors and to management, and 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.
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.
58
Because of these factors, the Institute of Portfolio Alternatives (“IPA”), an industry trade group, has published a standardized measure of performance known as 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 calculate 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, except that we adjust for deferred tax asset allowances based on management’s determination. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for acquisition fees and expenses and other items. In calculating MFFO, we follow the Practice Guideline (with the added adjustment for deferred tax asset allowances based on management’s determination as noted above) and exclude acquisition fees and expenses, amortization of above and below market and other intangible lease assets and liabilities, amounts relating to straight-line rent adjustments (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, 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 also exclude other non-operating items in calculating MFFO, such as transaction-related fees and expenses and capitalized interest. In addition, because we currently believe that concessions granted to our tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic are collectable (see Accounting Treatment of Rent Deferrals below), we have excluded from the increase in straight-line rent for MFFO purposes the amounts recognized under GAAP relating to these deferrals, which is not considered by the Practice Guideline.
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. Our Modified FFO (as defined in our Credit Facility) is similar but not identical to MFFO as discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 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 pay dividends and other distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with GAAP measurements as an indication of our 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, updates to the White Paper or the Practice Guideline may be published 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.
Accounting Treatment of Rent Deferrals
All of the concessions granted to our tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic are rent deferrals with the original lease term unchanged and collection of deferred rent deemed probable (see the “Overview - Management Update on the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional information). As a result of relief granted by the FASB and SEC related to lease modification accounting, rental revenue used to calculate Net Income and NAREIT FFO has not been, and we do not expect it
59
to be, significantly impacted by these types of deferrals. As of March 31, 2022, all deferred amounts have been collected and we have not deferred any additional amounts since the year ended December 31, 2020. For a detailed discussion of our revenue recognition policy, including details related to the relief granted by the FASB and SEC, see Note 2 — Significant Accounting Polices to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
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.

(1) Net of non-real estate depreciation and amortization.
(2) Represents amounts related to deferred rent pursuant to lease negotiations which qualify for FASB relief for which rent was deferred but not reduced. These amounts are included in the straight-line rent receivable on our balance sheet but are considered to be earned revenue attributed to the current period for rent that was deferred, for purposes of MFFO, as they are expected to be collected. Accordingly, when the deferred amounts are collected, the amounts reduce MFFO. As of March 31, 2022, all deferred amounts have been collected and we have not deferred any additional amounts since the year ended December 31, 2020.

Net Operating Income
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure used by us to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. NOI is equal to revenue from tenants less property operating and maintenance expenses. NOI excludes all other items of expense and income included in the financial statements in calculating net income (loss).
We believe NOI provides useful and relevant information because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents such items on an unlevered basis. We use NOI to assess and compare property level performance and to make decisions concerning the operation of the properties. Further, we believe NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating expenses and acquisition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss).
NOI excludes certain components from net income (loss) in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset and is often incurred at the corporate level. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our
60
consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity or ability to pay distributions.
The following table reflects the items deducted from or added to net loss attributable to stockholders in our calculation of NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2022:

Dividends and Other Distributions
Dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock accrue in an amount equal to $1.84375 per share each year ($0.460938 per share per quarter) to Series A Preferred Stock holders, which is equivalent to 7.375% of per annum in the $25.00 liquidation preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of January, April, July and October of each year or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day to holders of record on the close of business on the record date set by our board of directors and declared by us.
61
Dividends on our Series B Preferred Stock accrue in an amount equal to $1.78125 per share each year ($0.445313 per share per quarter) to Series B Preferred Stock holders, which is equivalent to 7.125% of per annum in the $25.00 liquidation preference per share of Series B Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of January, April, July and October of each year or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day to holders of record on the close of business on the record date set by our board of directors and declared by us. The first dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock was paid in January 2022.
On February 20, 2018, the Board authorized the rate at which we pay monthly distributions to stockholders, effective as of March 1, 2018, which is $0.85 per annum per share of common stock. Also, on August 13, 2020, the Board changed our common stock distribution policy in order to preserve our liquidity and maintain additional financial flexibility in light of the continued COVID-19 pandemic and to comply with an amendment to the Credit Facility described above. Under this distribution policy, distributions authorized by the Board on shares of our common stock, if and when declared, are now paid on a quarterly basis in arrears in shares of our common stock valued at the estimated per share asset value effect on the applicable date, based on a single record date to be specified at the beginning of each quarter.
We declared and issued Stock Dividends of 0.01349 shares of our common stock on each share of our outstanding common stock in October 2020 and January 2021 and 0.014655 shares of our common stock on each share of our outstanding common stock in April 2021, July 2021, October 2021 and January 2022. We declared and issued Stock Dividends of 0.014167 shares of our common stock on each share of our outstanding common stock in April 2022. The Board may further change our common stock distribution policy at any time, further reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time, and therefore distribution payments are not assured.
Under our Credit Facility we may not pay distributions to holders of common stock in cash or any other cash distributions (including repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock), subject to certain exceptions. These exceptions include paying cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock or any other preferred stock we may issue and paying any cash distributions necessary to maintain our status as a REIT. We may not pay any cash distributions (including dividends on Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock) if a default or event of default exists or would result therefrom. The restrictions on paying cash distributions will no longer apply starting in the quarter in which we make an election and, as of the day prior to the commencement of the applicable quarter, we have a combination of cash, cash equivalents and availability for future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility totaling at least $100.0 million, giving effect to the aggregate amount of distributions projected to be paid by us during the applicable quarter, our ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total asset value (expressed as a percentage) is less than 62.5%, and the Covenant Relief Period has ended. There can be no assurance as to if, or when, we will be able to satisfy these conditions. We may only pay cash distributions on our common stock beginning in the Commencement Quarter and the aggregate distributions (as defined in the Credit Facility and including dividends on Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock) for any period of four fiscal quarters do not exceed 95% of Modified FFO (as defined in the Credit Facility) for the same period based only on fiscal quarters after the Commencement Quarter. In addition, our ability to pay cash distributions may be limited by financial covenants in the Credit Facility, including our requirement to maintain a minimum ratio of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges. Until four full fiscal quarters have elapsed after the commencement of the Commencement Quarter, the aggregate amount of permitted distributions and Modified FFO will be determined by using only the fiscal quarters that have elapsed from and after the Commencement Quarter and annualizing those amounts.
Subject to the restrictions in our Credit Facility, the amount of dividends and other distributions payable to our stockholders is determined by the Board 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 (the “Code”). Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The Board may reduce the amount of dividends or distributions paid or suspend dividend or distribution payments at any time and therefore dividend and distribution payments are not assured. Any accrued and unpaid dividends payable with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock become part of the liquidation preference thereof.

The following table shows the sources for the payment of distributions to preferred stockholders, including distributions on unvested restricted shares and Common 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) Assumes the use of available cash flow from operations before any other sources.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash flows provided by operations were $5.9 million. We had not historically generated sufficient cash flow from operations to fund the payment of dividends and other distributions at the current rate prior to switching from paying cash dividends to stock dividends on our common stock. As shown in the table above, we funded dividends to holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock with cash flows provided by operations. Because shares of common stock are only offered and sold pursuant to the DRIP in connection with the reinvestment of distributions paid in cash, participants in the DRIP will not be able to reinvest in shares thereunder for so long as we pay distributions in stock instead of cash.
Our ability to pay dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and starting with the Commencement Quarter, other distributions and maintain compliance with the restrictions on the payment of distributions in our Credit Facility depends on our ability to increase the amount of cash we generate from property operations which in turn depends on a variety of factors, including the duration and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our tenants and properties, our ability to complete acquisitions of new properties and our ability to improve operations at our existing properties. There can be no assurance that we will complete acquisitions on a timely basis or on acceptable terms and conditions, if at all. Our ability to improve operations at our existing properties is also subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and there can be no assurance we will be successful in achieving this objective.
We may still pay any cash distributions necessary to maintain our status as a REIT and may not pay any cash distributions (including dividends on Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock) if a default or event of default exists or would result therefrom under the Credit Facility.
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. The payment terms of our Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities required interest only payments through November 2021 and principal and interest payments thereafter. Our loan agreements require us to comply with specific financial and reporting covenants. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with the financial and reporting covenants under our loan agreements.
Under our Credit Facility, until the first day of the Commencement Quarter, we must use all the net cash proceeds from any capital event (such as an asset sale, financing or equity issuance) to repay amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. We may reborrow any amounts so repaid if all relevant conditions are met, including sufficient availability for future borrowings. There can be no assurance these conditions will be met.
63
Election as a REIT
We elected 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 that taxable year, we have been organized and operated in a manner so that we qualify as a REIT under the Code. We intend to continue to operate in such a manner but we can provide no assurances that we will operate in a manner so as to remain qualified for taxation as a REIT. To continue to qualify as a REIT, we must 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 comply with a number of other organizational and operational requirements. If we continue to qualify as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on the 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 U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
Inflation
We may be adversely impacted by inflation on the leases with tenants in our MOB segment that do not contain indexed escalation provisions, or those leases which have escalations at rates which do not exceed or approximate current inflation rates. For the year ended March 31, 2022, the increase to the 12-month CPI for all items, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, was 8.5%. To help mitigate the adverse impact of inflation, approximately 87% of our leases with our tenants in our MOB segment contain rent escalation provisions which average 1.8% per year. These provisions generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases either at fixed rates or indexed escalations (based on the Consumer Price Index or other measures). Approximately 84% are fixed-rate, 3% are based on the Consumer Price Index and 13% do not contain any escalation provisions.
In addition to base rent, depending on the specific lease, MOB tenants are generally required to pay either (i) their pro rata share of property operating and maintenance expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors or (ii) their share of increases in property operating and maintenance expenses to the extent they exceed the properties’ expenses for the base year of the respective leases. Property operating and maintenance expenses include common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. Increased operating costs paid by our tenants under these net leases could have an adverse impact on our tenants if increases in their operating expenses exceed increases in their revenue, which may adversely affect our tenants’ ability to pay rent owed to us or property expenses to be paid, or reimbursed to us, by our tenants. Renewals of leases or future leases for our net lease properties may not be negotiated on a triple-net basis or on a basis requiring the tenants to pay all or some of such expenses, in which event we may have to pay those costs. If we are unable to lease properties on a triple-net basis or on a basis requiring the tenants to pay all or some of such expenses, or if tenants fail to pay required tax, utility and other impositions, we could be required to pay those costs.
Leases with residents at our SHOPs typically do not have rent escalations, however, we are able to renew leases at market rates as they mature due to their short-term nature. As inflation rates increase or persist at high levels, the cost of providing medical care at our SHOPs, particularly labor costs, will increase. If we are unable to admit new residents or renew resident leases at market rates, while bearing these increased costs from providing services to our residents, our results of operations may be affected.

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.
64
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control 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.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, except for the below risk factors, and we direct your attention to those risk factors.
Geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine may adversely impact the U.S. and global economies.
On February 24, 2022, Russian troops invaded Ukraine starting a military conflict, the length and breadth of which is highly unpredictable. Coupled with existing supply disruptions and changes in Federal Reserve policies on interest rates, this war has exacerbated, and may continue to exacerbate, inflation and significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain disruptions.
Additionally, the U.S., the European Union, and other countries, as well as other public and private actors and companies have imposed sanctions and other penalties on Russia including removing Russian-based financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system and restricting imports of Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal. These sanctions have caused supply disruptions in the oil and gas markets and could continue to cause significant increases in energy prices, which could have a material effect on inflation and may trigger a recession in the U.S., among other areas. These factors may result in the weakening of the financial condition of or the bankruptcy or insolvency of a significant tenant or a number of smaller tenants, which would adversely impact their ability to pay rents as they come due. As a result, our financial condition and results of operations may be negatively affected since our revenue is largely dependent on the success and economic viability of our tenants.
These and other sanctions that may be imposed as well as the ongoing conflict could further adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and cause further instability, negatively impacting liquidity in the capital markets and potentially making it more difficult for us to access additional debt or equity financing on attractive terms in the future.
In addition, the U.S. government has warned of the potential for Russian cyberattacks. The risk of Russian cyberattacks may also create market volatility and economic uncertainty particularly if these attacks occur and spread to a broad array of countries and networks.
