NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business Overview and Organization

Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (“Parent”) is a Maryland corporation that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “Omega,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) invests in healthcare-related real estate properties located in the United States (“U.S.”) and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Our core business is to provide financing and capital to the long-term healthcare industry with a particular focus on skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”), assisted living facilities (“ALFs”), and to a lesser extent, independent living facilities (“ILFs”), rehabilitation and acute care facilities (“specialty facilities”) and medical office buildings. Our core portfolio consists of long-term “triple net” leases and mortgage loans with healthcare operating companies and affiliates (collectively, our “operators”). In addition to our core investments, we make loans to operators and/or their principals. From time to time, we also acquire equity interests in joint ventures or entities that support the long-term healthcare industry and our operators.

Omega has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes and is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (“UPREIT”) under which all of Omega’s assets are owned directly or indirectly by, and all of Omega’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly through, its operating partnership subsidiary, OHI Healthcare Properties Limited Partnership (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Omega OP”). Omega has exclusive control over Omega OP’s day-to-day management pursuant to the partnership agreement governing Omega OP. As of June 30, 2022, Parent owned approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding units of partnership interest in Omega OP (“Omega OP Units”), and other investors owned approximately 3% of the outstanding Omega OP Units.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU – 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures

On March 31, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, which eliminates the recognition and measurement guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) and requires additional disclosures for certain loan modifications. ASU 2022-02 also requires entities to disclose gross write-offs of financing receivables and net investments in leases by year of origination. Omega elected to early adopt ASU 2022-02 on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2022. In the second quarter of 2022, we had one loan modification to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty pursuant to ASU 2022-02, Guardian Healthcare (“Guardian”), that requires additional disclosures. The required disclosures for this loan are included in Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements and Note 5 – Mortgage Notes Receivable. We have disclosed our gross write-offs of financing receivables and direct financing leases by year of origination in Note 7 – Allowance for Credit Losses.

ASU – 2020-04, Financial Instruments – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)

On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, which contains optional practical expedients for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The guidance may be elected over time until December 31, 2022, as reference rate reform activities occur. The Company has several derivative instruments (See Note 16 – Derivatives and Hedging), a $1.45 billion senior unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facility, and a $50.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (See Note 15 – Borrowing Activities and Arrangements) that reference LIBOR. We also have a $25.0 million senior secured debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) facility loan with an operator that references LIBOR (See Note 6 – Other Investments), but it matures in 2022 prior to LIBOR being discontinued. During the first quarter of 2020, we elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. Our credit facilities that reference LIBOR contain customary LIBOR replacement language, including, but not limited to, the use of rates based on the secured overnight financing rate. The Company continues to evaluate: (i) how the transition away from LIBOR will impact the Company, (ii) whether any additional optional expedients provided by the standards will be adopted, and (iii) the impact that adopting ASU 2020-04 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

The total consideration paid for the one-facility U.K. acquisition and the 27-facility U.K. acquisition was $8.2 million and $100.0 million, respectively. In connection with these acquisitions, we allocated $0.5 million of the purchase consideration to a deferred tax liability related to the one-facility U.K. acquisition, and $13.4 million to a deferred tax asset related to the 27-facility U.K. acquisition. See Note 13 – Taxes for additional information.

(3)	Total consideration for the one-facility Maryland acquisition was paid on December 30, 2021, but the closing of the acquisition did not occur until January 1, 2022.

NOTE 3 – ASSETS HELD FOR SALE, DISPOSITIONS AND IMPAIRMENTS

Periodically we sell facilities to reduce our exposure to certain operators, geographies and non-strategic assets or due to the exercise of a tenant purchase option.

Asset Sales

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 13 and 40 facilities, subject to operating leases, for approximately $54.3 million and $386.9 million in net cash proceeds, recognizing net gains of approximately $25.2 million and $138.8 million, respectively. The proceeds and gain for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily relate to the sale of the 22 facilities in the first quarter of 2022 that were previously leased and operated by Gulf Coast Health Care LLC (together with certain affiliates “Gulf Coast”) and were included in assets held for sale as of December 31, 2021. The net cash proceeds from the sale, including related costs accrued for as of the end of the second quarter, were $304.0 million, and we recognized a net gain of approximately $113.5 million. We elected to exit these facilities following Gulf Coast commencing its Chapter 11 bankruptcy process in October 2021. The agreement includes an earnout clause pursuant to which the buyer is obligated to pay an additional $18.7 million to Omega if certain financial metrics are achieved at the facilities in the three years following the sale. As we have determined it is not probable that we will receive any additional funds, we have not recorded any income related to the earnout clause.

We also sold nine facilities (two facilities in the first quarter and seven in the second quarter) during the six months ended June 30, 2022 that were previously leased to Guardian for $39.5 million in net proceeds, which resulted in a net gain of approximately $13.7 million. The sales were in connection with the restructuring of Guardian’s portfolio.

One of the facilities sold in the first quarter of 2022 was sold to the joint venture that was consolidated in the first quarter of 2022, as discussed further in Note 8 – Variable Interest Entities.

Real Estate Impairments

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded impairments on four and six facilities of approximately $7.7 million and $11.2 million, respectively. Of the $11.2 million, $3.5 million related to two facilities that were classified as held for sale for which the carrying values exceeded the estimated fair values less costs to sell, and $7.7 million related to four held-for-use facilities for which the carrying value exceeded the fair value. To estimate the fair value of the facilities for the impairments noted above, we utilized a market approach that considered binding sale agreements (a Level 1 input), or non-binding offers from unrelated third parties and/or broker quotes (a Level 3 input).

NOTE 4 – CONTRACTUAL RECEIVABLES AND OTHER RECEIVABLES AND LEASE INDUCEMENTS

Contractual receivables relate to the amounts currently owed to us under the terms of our lease and loan agreements. Effective yield interest receivables relate to the difference between the interest income recognized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan agreement and the interest currently due to us according to the contractual agreement. Straight-line rent receivables relate to the difference between the rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis and the amounts currently due to us according to the contractual agreement. Lease inducements result from value provided by us to the lessee, at the inception, modification or renewal of the lease, and are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the non-cancellable lease term.

A summary of our net receivables and lease inducements by type is as follows:

Agemo Holdings, LLC

Agemo Holdings, LLC (“Agemo”) continued to not pay contractual rent and interest due under its lease and loan agreements during the first and second quarters of 2022. Our lease payments from Agemo are on a cash basis of revenue recognition for lease purposes, so no rental income was recorded related to Agemo during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, no interest income was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 on the two loans with Agemo because these loans are on non-accrual status and we are utilizing the cost recovery method, under which any payments received are applied against the principal amount. See Note 6 – Other Investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from Agemo represented approximately 4.9% and 4.7%, respectively, of our total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs).

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we extended the forbearance period related to Agemo’s defaults under its lease and loan agreements to August 31, 2022. We are in on-going discussions with Agemo regarding restructuring the lease and loan agreements. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Agemo lease was amended to allow for the extension of the rent deferral through April 2022, which represents an additional deferral of approximately $1.6 million of rent.

Guardian Healthcare

Guardian Healthcare (“Guardian”) did not make rent and interest payments under its lease and loan agreements during the first quarter of 2022 but resumed making contractual rent and interest payments during the second quarter of 2022, in accordance with the restructuring terms discussed further below. Our lease payments from Guardian are on a cash basis of revenue recognition for lease purposes and we recorded rental income of $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 for contractual rent payments that were made. Additionally, as discussed further in Note 5 – Mortgage Notes Receivable, no mortgage interest income has been recognized on the Guardian mortgage loan during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as we are accounting for this loan under the cost recovery method.

During the first and second quarters of 2022, we completed significant restructuring activities related to the Guardian lease and loan portfolio. In the first quarter of 2022, we transitioned eight facilities previously leased to Guardian to two other operators as part of the planned restructuring. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold nine facilities previously leased to Guardian and three facilities previously subject to the Guardian mortgage loan. In the second quarter of 2022, we agreed to a formal restructuring agreement, master lease amendments and mortgage loan amendments with Guardian. As part of the restructuring agreement and related agreements, Omega agreed to, among other terms:

●

Extend the lease and loan terms from January 31, 2027 to December 31, 2031 and allow Guardian the option to extend the maturity date for both the lease and loan through September 30, 2034, subject to certain conditions,

●

reduce the combined rent and mortgage interest to an aggregate $24.0 million per year as of July 1, 2022 ($15.0 million in rent and $9.0 million in interest) with annual escalators of 2.25% beginning in January 2023 and

●

allow Guardian to retrospectively defer $18.0 million of aggregate contractual rent and interest that they failed to pay during the period from October 2021 through March 2022 (consisting of $12.2 million of deferred rent and $5.8 of million deferred interest), with repayment required after September 30, 2024 based on certain financial metrics and in full by December 31, 2031, or the earlier termination of the lease for any reason.

As of June 30, 2022, we have $7.4 million of letters of credit from Guardian as collateral. Revenue from Guardian represented approximately 1.5% and 3.3% of our total revenues (excluding the impact of straight-line write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and 0.7% and 3.3% of our total revenues (excluding the impact of straight-line write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Other operator updates

From January through March 2022, an operator representing 3.8% and 3.4% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, did not pay its contractual amounts due under its lease agreement. In March 2022, the lease with this operator was amended to allow for a short-term rent deferral for January through March 2022. The deferred rent balance accrues interest monthly at a rate of 5% per annum. This operator paid the contractual amount due under its lease agreement from April 2022 through June 2022. Omega holds a $1.0 million letter of credit and a $150.0 thousand security deposit from this operator.

We have provided a $20.0 million revolving credit facility to this operator, and the operator has paid contractual interest under the facility from January through June 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the total outstanding principal due under the credit facility was $20.0 million. The credit facility is secured by a first lien on the operator’s accounts receivable.

In March 2022, an operator, representing 1.0% and 2.1% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 1.6% and 2.1% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, did not pay its contractual amounts due under its lease agreement. In April 2022, the lease with this operator was amended to allow the operator to apply its $2.0 million security deposit toward payment of March 2022 rent and to allow for a short-term rent deferral for April 2022 with regular rent payments required to resume in May 2022. This operator paid contractual rent in May 2022, but failed to make the full contractual rent payment for June 2022. We placed this operator on a cash basis of revenue recognition during the second quarter of 2022 as collection of substantially all contractual lease payments due from them was no longer deemed probable. As a result, we wrote-off approximately $8.3 million of straight-line rent receivables through rental income.

In June 2022, an operator, representing 2.2% and 1.0% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 2.2% and 2.1% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, short-paid the contractual rent amount due under its lease agreement by $0.6 million. At June 30, 2022, we held a $5.4 million letter of credit as collateral from this operator. In July 2022, we drew the full amount of the letter of credit and applied $0.6 million of the proceeds to pay the unpaid portion of June rent. We are in discussions with this operator to allow the application of a portion of the remaining proceeds from the letter of credit towards future contractual rent for a short-term period.

In June 2022, we placed an operator, representing approximately 0.4% and 0.3% of our total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 0.5% and 0.5% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, on a cash basis of revenue recognition. The change in our evaluation of the collectability of future rent payments due from this operator was as a result of information received from the operator during the second quarter of 2022 regarding substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of placing this operator on a cash basis, we wrote-off approximately $2.1 million of straight-line rent receivables through rental income. All facilities included in this operator’s master lease are included in assets held for sale as of June 30, 2022.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we allowed three other operators, representing an aggregate 2.3% and 2.7% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 2.4% and 2.7% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, to apply an aggregate of $2.2 million of their security deposits to pay rent to accommodate short term liquidity issues, with regular rent payments required to resume shortly thereafter. Additionally, we granted one of these operators a short-term deferral for a portion of its rent due during the six months ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, all of these operators are current on their respective lease obligations due to the application of security deposits. These operators also are required to begin replenishing their security deposits in 2023.

Table of Contents

Other straight-line receivables and write-offs

In the first quarter of 2022, we transitioned six facilities between existing operators. The transition resulted in the removal of the facilities from the original operator’s lease agreement and consequently the write-off of $3.2 million of straight-line rent receivable balances through rental income. The facilities were added to the new operator’s lease agreement.

NOTE 5 – MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE

As of June 30, 2022, mortgage notes receivable relate to seven fixed rate mortgage notes on 54 facilities. The mortgage notes are secured by first mortgage liens on the borrowers’ underlying real estate and personal property. The mortgage notes receivable relate to facilities located in six states that are operated by six independent healthcare operating companies. We monitor compliance with the terms of our mortgages and when necessary have initiated collection, foreclosure and other proceedings with respect to certain outstanding mortgage notes.

The principal amounts outstanding of mortgage notes receivable, net of allowances, were as follows:

(2)	Other mortgage notes outstanding have a weighted average interest rate of 8.85% per annum as of June 30, 2022 and maturity dates ranging from 2023 through 2032.

Mortgage Note due 2031

As discussed in Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements, Guardian did not make rent and interest payments under its lease and loan agreements during the first quarter of 2022 but resumed making contractual rent and interest payments during the second quarter of 2022, in accordance with the restructuring terms agreed to in the second quarter of 2022. The mortgage loan is on non-accrual status, and is being accounted for under the cost recovery method, so the $1.4 million of interest payments that we received during the three months ended June 30, 2022 were applied directly against the principal balance outstanding.

On February 15, 2022, Guardian completed the sale of three facilities, subject to the Guardian mortgage loan with Omega. Concurrent with the sale, Omega agreed to release the mortgage liens on these facilities in exchange for a partial paydown of $21.7 million. In connection with the partial paydown, we recorded a $5.1 million recovery for credit losses in the first quarter of 2022 related to the Guardian mortgage loan.

In the second quarter of 2022, we agreed to a formal restructuring agreement and amendments to the master lease and mortgage loan with Guardian, which among other adjustments, extended the loan maturity and allowed for the deferral of certain contractual interest as discussed in Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements. These amendments were treated as a loan modification. Following the mortgage paydown and recoveries, the amortized cost basis of the loan is $80.6 million. The amortized cost basis of the loan represents 10.4% of the total amortized cost basis of all mortgage receivables. As of June 30 2022, the mortgage loan is secured by three SNFs and one ALF located in Pennsylvania.

Mortgage Notes due 2030

On June 30, 2022, Ciena Healthcare (“Ciena”) repaid $57.1 million under the $415.0 million amortizing mortgage (the “Master Mortgage”), $15.1 million under the $44.7 million mortgage and $41.5 million under four other additional mortgages. Concurrent with these repayments, we released the mortgage liens on six facilities in exchange for the partial repayment and extended the maturity date of all of the Ciena mortgage notes to June 30, 2030 (with exception of two loans with an aggregate principal balance of $34.3 million with maturity dates in 2022 and 2023).

NOTE 6 – OTHER INVESTMENTS

Our other investments consist of fixed and variable rate loans to our operators and/or their principals. These loans may be either unsecured or secured by the collateral of the borrower. A number of the secured loans are collateralized by a leasehold mortgage on, or an assignment or pledge of the membership interest in, the related properties, corporate guarantees and/or personal guarantees. We deem these to be “real estate related loans” that are included as qualifying assets under our quarterly REIT asset tests. As of June 30, 2022, we had 39 loans with 19 different operators.

Other investment note due 2030

On June 22, 2022, we amended the secured revolving credit facility with Maplewood Senior Living (together with its affiliates, “Maplewood”) to increase the maximum commitment under the facility from $220.5 million to $250.5 million. Advances made under this facility bear interest at a fixed rate of 7% per annum, and the facility matures on June 30, 2030. As of June 30, 2022, $225.7 million remains outstanding on this credit facility to Maplewood. Maplewood was determined to be a VIE when this loan was originated in 2020. Please see further discussion in Note 8 – Variable Interest Entities.

Other investment notes due 2024-2025

As discussed in Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements, Agemo continued to not pay contractual rent and interest to us during the first and second quarters of 2022. We have continued to monitor the fair value of the collateral associated with Agemo’s $25.0 million secured working capital loan (the “Agemo WC Loan”) on a quarterly basis. In the first and second quarters of 2022, we recorded an additional provision for credit losses of $4.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively, related to the Agemo WC Loan as a result of a reduction in the fair value of the underlying collateral assets supporting the current carrying values. The reduction in fair value of the collateral assets in the first and second quarter was driven by a reduction in Agemo’s working capital accessible to Omega as collateral, after considering other liens on the assets.

Other investment notes due 2022-2025

On June 28, 2022, we entered into a $35.6 million mezzanine loan with an existing operator. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 12% per annum and matures on June 30, 2025. The loan also requires quarterly principal payments of $1.0 million commencing on January 1, 2023 and additional payments contingent on achievement of certain metrics. The loan is secured by a leasehold mortgage and a pledge of the operator’s equity interest in a joint venture.

Other investment notes due 2022-2028

In connection with the $35.6 million mezzanine loan discussed above, we also entered into a short-term $90.0 million revolving line of credit with the same operator to finance working capital requirements. The line of credit consists of two $45.0 million tranches that bear interest at fixed rates of 10% per annum and 12% per annum and mature on June 30, 2023 and June 1, 2023 (or earlier based on certain state reimbursement conditions), respectively. The revolving line of credit is secured by a first priority interest on the operator’s accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2022, the revolving line of credit has not been drawn on.

Preferred Equity Investment in Joint Venture - $20 million

On June 2, 2022, we made a $20.0 million preferred equity investment, which is treated as a loan for accounting purposes, in a new real estate joint venture that was formed to acquire an acute care hospital in New York. Omega’s preferred equity investment bears a 12% return per annum and must be mandatorily redeemed by the joint venture at the earlier of December 2027 or the occurrence of certain significant events within the joint venture. We have determined that the joint venture is a VIE, but we are not the primary beneficiary as we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s economic performance. Please see further discussion in Note 8 – Variable Interest Entities.

Working Capital Loan – $20 million

In the second quarter of 2022, we recognized a provision for credit losses of $2.3 million on a $20.0 million working capital loan that was entered into in November 2021 with an operator that managed, on an interim basis for a 4-month period, the operations of 23 facilities formerly leased to Gulf Coast. The working capital loan is secured by the accounts receivables of these facilities during the interim period of operation. The remaining accounts receivable outstanding that collateralizes the loan is insufficient to support the current outstanding balance, and as a result, we recorded the additional reserve in the second quarter of 2022 to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the fair value of the collateral. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal under this loan was $6.4 million.

Term Loan – $25 million

On March 25, 2022, we entered into a $25.0 million term loan with LaVie Care Centers, LLC (“LaVie,” f/k/a Consulate Health Care) that bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.5% per annum and matures on March 31, 2032. This term loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1.3 million commencing January 1, 2028 and is secured by a second priority lien on the operator’s accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal under this term loan was $25.0 million.

Interest Receivable on Mortgage and Other Investment Loans

We have elected the practical expedient to exclude interest receivable from our allowance for credit losses. As of June 30, 2022, $10.1 million of contractual interest receivable is recorded in contractual receivables – net, and $7.4 million of effective yield interest receivables is recorded in other receivables and lease inducements on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, both of which are excluded from our allowance for credit losses. We write-off interest receivable to provision for credit losses in the period we determine the interest is no longer considered collectible.

NOTE 8 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities

We hold variable interests in several VIEs through our investing and financing activities, which are not consolidated, as we have concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary of these entities as we do not have the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and/or the variable interest we hold does not obligate us to absorb losses or provide us with the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could potentially be significant.

Below is a summary of our assets, liabilities and collateral associated with these unconsolidated VIEs as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Amount excludes accounts receivable that Omega has a security interest in as collateral under the two working capital loans with operators that are unconsolidated VIEs. The fair value of the accounts receivable available to Omega was $14.5 million and $29.2 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Table of Contents

In determining our maximum exposure to loss from the unconsolidated VIEs, we considered the underlying carrying value of the real estate subject to leases with the operator and other collateral, if any, supporting our other investments, which may include accounts receivable, security deposits, letters of credit or personal guarantees, if any, as well as other liabilities recognized with respect to these operators.

The table below reflects our total revenues from the operators that are considered unconsolidated VIEs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Consolidated VIEs

During the first quarter of 2022, we entered into a joint venture, which owns two ALFs, for a $3.2 million cash contribution, representing 52.4% of the outstanding equity of the joint venture. We also sold the joint venture an ALF for $7.7 million in net proceeds during the first quarter of 2022. The joint venture is a VIE, and we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of this VIE based on a combination of our ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s economic performance and our rights to receive residual returns or the obligation to absorb losses arising from the joint venture. Accordingly, this joint venture has been consolidated. Omega is not required to make any additional capital contributions to the joint venture, and it is expected to be funded from the ongoing operations of the underlying properties. As of June 30, 2022, this joint venture has $25.4 million of total assets and $19.6 million of total liabilities, which are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of consolidating the joint venture, in the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a $2.9 million noncontrolling interest to reflect the contributions of the minority interest holder of the joint venture. No gain or loss was recognized on the initial consolidation of the VIE or upon the sale of the ALF to the joint venture.

NOTE 9 – INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

Omega owns an interest in a number of joint ventures that are accounted for under the equity method. These entities and their subsidiaries are not consolidated by the Company because it does not control, through voting rights or other means, the joint venture.

NOTE 11 – CONCENTRATION OF RISK

As of June 30, 2022, our portfolio of real estate investments (including properties associated with mortgages, direct financing leases, assets held for sale and consolidated joint ventures) consisted of 943 healthcare facilities, located in 42 states and the U.K. and operated by 65 third-party operators. Our investment in these facilities, net of impairments and allowances, totaled approximately $9.8 billion at June 30, 2022, with approximately 97% of our real estate investments related to long-term healthcare facilities. Our portfolio is made up of (i) 673 SNFs, 163 ALFs, 20 ILFs, 16 specialty facilities and two medical office buildings, (ii) fixed rate mortgages on 50 SNFs, two ALFs and two specialty facilities, and (iii) 15 facilities that are held for sale.

$500 Million Stock Repurchase Program

On January 27, 2022, the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our outstanding common stock from time to time through March 2025. The Company is authorized to repurchase shares of its common stock in open market and privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or in any other manner as determined by the Company’s management and in accordance with applicable law. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will be determined, in management’s discretion, based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to market conditions, other capital management needs and opportunities and corporate and regulatory considerations. The Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock, and such repurchases, if any, may be discontinued at any time. Under Maryland law, shares repurchased become authorized but unissued shares.

NOTE 13 – TAXES

Omega was organized, has operated and intends to continue to operate in a manner that enables Omega to qualify for taxation as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. On a quarterly and annual basis, we perform several analyses to test our compliance within the REIT taxation rules. If we fail to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT in any tax year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent years, unless we qualify for certain relief provisions that are available in the event we fail to satisfy any of the requirements.

We are also subject to federal taxation of 100% of the net income derived from the sale or other disposition of property, other than foreclosure property, that we held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business. We believe that we do not hold assets for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business and that none of the assets currently held for sale or that have been sold would be considered a prohibited transaction within the REIT taxation rules.

As a REIT under the Code, we generally will not be subject to federal income taxes on the REIT taxable income that we distribute to stockholders, subject to certain exceptions. In 2021, we distributed dividends in excess of our taxable income.

We currently own stock in certain subsidiary REITs. These subsidiaries are required to individually satisfy all of the rules for qualification as a REIT. If we fail to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT for any of these subsidiaries, it may cause Omega to fail the requirements for qualification as a REIT also.

Table of Contents

We have elected to treat certain of our active subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). Our domestic TRSs are subject to federal, state and local income taxes at the applicable corporate rates. Our foreign TRSs are subject to foreign income taxes and may cause us to be subject to current-year income inclusion relating to ownership of a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. income tax purposes.

As of June 30, 2022, one of our domestic TRSs that is subject to income taxes at the applicable corporate rates had a net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forward of approximately $10.2 million. Our domestic NOL carry-forward was fully reserved as of June 30, 2022, with a valuation allowance due to uncertainties regarding realization. Under current law, NOL carry-forwards generated up through December 31, 2017, may be carried forward for no more than 20 years, and NOL carry-forwards generated in taxable years ended after December 31, 2017, may be carried forward indefinitely. We do not anticipate that such changes will materially impact the computation of Omega’s taxable income, or the taxable income of any Omega entity, including our TRSs.

As discussed in Note 2 – Real Estate Assets, in connection with the acquisition of one U.K. entity in the first quarter of 2022, we acquired foreign net operating losses of $55.0 million resulting in a NOL deferred tax asset of $13.4 million. The NOLs have no expiration date and may be available to offset future taxable income. We believe these foreign NOLs are realizable under a “more likely than not” measurement and have not recorded a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset.

The following is a summary of deferred tax assets and liabilities (which are recorded in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets):

Foreign deferred tax liability ⁽¹⁾		(6,508)		(8,200)

We granted 31,685 time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 170,294 time-based profits interest units (“PIUs”) during the first quarter of 2022 to certain officers and key employees, and those units vest on December 31, 2024 (three years after the grant date), subject to continued employment and vesting in certain other events.

We also granted 1,545,070 performance-based PIUs during the first quarter of 2022 to certain officers and key employees, which are earned based on the level of performance over the performance period (normally three years) and vest quarterly in the fourth year, subject to continued employment and vesting in certain other events.

Time-based and performance-based grants made to named executive officers and key employees that meet certain conditions under the Company’s retirement policy (length of service, age, etc.) vest on an accelerated basis pursuant to the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan.

NOTE 16 – DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

We are exposed to, among other risks, the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our investments in the U.K. and interest rate risk related to our capital structure. As a matter of policy, we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Our risk management program is designed to manage the exposure and volatility arising from these risks, and utilizes foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and debt issued in foreign currencies to offset a portion of these risks. As of June 30, 2022, we have five forward starting swaps with $400.0 million in notional value designated as cash flow hedges and six foreign currency forward contracts with £250.0 million (including the two new foreign currency forwards discussed below) in notional value designated as net investment hedges.

On May 17, 2022, we entered into two new foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts totaling £76.0 million and a GBP-USD forward rate of 1.3071, which mature on May 21, 2029. The currency forwards hedge a portion of our net investments in U.K. subsidiaries and our U.K. joint venture.

On February 10, 2022, two of our interest rate swaps that were entered into in May 2019 with aggregate notional amounts of $50.0 million matured. These interest rate swap contracts were designated as hedges against our exposure to changes in interest payment cash flow fluctuations in the variable interest rates on the OP term loan.

The location and the fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges, at the respective balance sheet dates, were as follows:


	June 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021

Cash flow hedges:	(in thousands)

Accrued expenses and other liabilities	$	—	$	96

Net investment hedges:
Other assets	$	29,262	$	6,754

The fair value of the interest rate swaps and foreign currency forwards is derived from observable market data such as yield curves and foreign exchange rates and represents a Level 2 measurement on the fair value hierarchy.

Fair value estimates are subjective in nature and are dependent on a number of important assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows, risks, discount rates and relevant comparable market information associated with each financial instrument (see Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021). The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the reported estimated fair value amounts.

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments.

●

Mortgage notes receivable: The fair value of the mortgage notes receivables are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates being offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings (Level 3).

●

Other investments: Other investments are primarily comprised of notes receivable. The fair values of notes receivable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates being offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings (Level 3).

●

Revolving credit facility, OP term loan, 2022 term loan and 2024 term loan: The carrying amount of these approximate fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjusted. Differences between carrying value and the fair value in the table above are due to the inclusion of deferred financing costs in the carrying value.

●

Senior notes: The fair value of the senior unsecured notes payable was estimated based on (Level 1) publicly available trading prices.

Table of Contents

●

Subordinated debt: The fair value of our borrowings under these agreements are estimated using a present value technique based on inputs from trading activity provided by a third-party (Level 2).

●

HUD mortgages: The fair value of our borrowings under HUD debt agreements are estimated using an expected present value technique based on quotes obtained by HUD debt brokers (Level 2).

NOTE 18 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Shareholder Litigation

The Company and certain of its officers, C. Taylor Pickett, Robert O. Stephenson, and Daniel J. Booth, are defendants in a purported securities class action lawsuit pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Securities Class Action”). Brought by lead plaintiff Royce Setzer and additional plaintiff Earl Holtzman, the Securities Class Action purports to assert claims for violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, as well as Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and seeks an unspecified amount of monetary damages, interest, fees and expenses of attorneys and experts, and other relief. The Securities Class Action alleges that the defendants violated the Exchange Act by making materially false and/or misleading statements, and by failing to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, including the financial and operating results of one of the Company’s operators, the ability of such operator to make timely rent payments, and the impairment of certain of the Company’s leases and the uncollectibility of certain receivables. The initial complaint was dismissed with prejudice by the U.S. District Court, but the dismissal was overturned by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in 2020. Thereafter, the plaintiffs filed a Second Consolidated Amended Complaint in August 2020. In November 2020, the Company and the officers named in the Securities Class Action filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Consolidated Amended Complaint. On September 28, 2021, the Court issued an order denying the motion to dismiss insofar as it requested dismissal of the entire action on grounds of loss causation, and granting it insofar as it sought dismissal of any claims arising out of defendants’ statements in February 2017. Because the dismissed claims were the basis for defendants’ efforts to begin the alleged class period in February 2017, the decision means that the alleged class period runs from May 3, 2017 to October 31, 2017.

Certain derivative actions have also been brought against the officers named in the Securities Class Action, and certain current and former directors of the Company, alleging claims relating to the matters at issue in the Securities Class Action. These derivative actions are currently stayed pending certain developments in the Securities Class Action.

In 2018, Stourbridge Investments LLC, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and state-law claims including breach of fiduciary duty. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the named defendants are responsible for the Company’s failure to disclose the financial condition of Orianna Health Systems, the alleged non-disclosures that are also the subject of the Securities Class Action described above. The plaintiff did not make a demand on the Company to bring the action prior to filing it, but rather alleges that demand would have been futile. The case has been stayed pending the entry of judgment or a voluntary dismissal with prejudice in the Securities Class Action.

In 2019, purported stockholder Phillip Swan by his counsel, and stockholders Tom Bradley and Sarah Smith by their counsel, filed derivative actions in the Baltimore City Circuit Court of Maryland, purportedly on behalf of the Company, asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment against the named defendants. Those actions have been consolidated and stayed in the Maryland court pending completion of fact discovery in the Securities Class Action. Prior to filing suit, each of these stockholders had made demands on the Board of Directors in 2018 that the Company bring such lawsuits. After an investigation and due consideration, and in the exercise of its business judgment, the Board of Directors determined that it is not in the best interests of the Company to commence litigation against any current or former officers or directors based on the matters raised in the demands.

Table of Contents

In addition, in late 2020, Robert Wojcik, a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a derivative action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, purportedly on behalf of the Company, asserting violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act, as well as claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. Wojcik also did not make a demand on the Company prior to filing suit. The case has been stayed pending the entry of judgment or a voluntary dismissal with prejudice in the Securities Class Action.

The Company believes that the claims asserted against it in these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.

Other

Gulf Coast Subordinated Debt

In August 2021, we filed suit in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County (the “Court”) against the holders of certain Subordinated Debt associated with our Gulf Coast master lease agreement, following an assertion by the holders that our prior exercise of offset rights in connection with Gulf Coast’s non-payment of rent had resulted in defaults under the terms of the Subordinated Debt. The suit seeks a declaratory judgment to, among other items, declare that the aggregate amount of unpaid rent due from Gulf Coast under the master lease agreement exceeds all amounts which otherwise would be due and owing by a subsidiary of Omega (“Omega Obligor”) under the Subordinated Debt, and that all principal and interest due and owing under the Subordinated Debt may be (and was) offset in full as of December 31, 2021. In October 2021, the defendants in the case filed a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. A hearing was held on such motion on February 25, 2022, but the decision was taken under advisement. While Omega believes Omega Obligor is entitled to the enforcement of the offset rights sought in the action, the outcome of litigation is unpredictable, and Omega cannot predict the outcome of the declaratory judgment action, irrespective of whether it is litigated in the Court or, if the motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction is granted, in another court.

Lakeway Realty, L.L.C.

In September 2016, MedEquities received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), which indicates that it is conducting an investigation regarding alleged violations of the False Claims Act, Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute in connection with claims that may have been submitted to Medicare and other federal payors for services rendered to patients at Lakeway Hospital or by providers with financial relationships with Lakeway Hospital. As a result of the acquisition of MedEquities, the Company owns a 51% interest in an unconsolidated limited liability company that owns Lakeway Hospital, Lakeway Realty, L.L.C. The CID requested certain documents and information related to the acquisition and ownership of Lakeway Hospital through Lakeway Realty, L.L.C. The Company has learned that the DOJ is investigating, among other items, MedEquities’ conduct in connection with its investigation of financial relationships related to Lakeway Hospital, including allegations by the DOJ that these relationships violate and continue to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute and, as a result, related claims submitted to federal payors violated and continue to violate the False Claims Act. The Company is cooperating fully with the DOJ in connection with the CID and has produced all of the information that has been requested to date.

On September 29, 2020, the Department of Justice announced it had reached a settlement of a False Claims Act case with Lakeway Regional Medical Center wherein Lakeway Regional Medical Center agreed to pay $1.1 million for inducing certain physicians to refer patients by offering a low risk and high return investment in the form of a joint venture to purchase and then lease back the hospital to Lakeway Regional Medical Center. A MedEquities subsidiary was a party to this transaction but was not included in settlement discussions, and we understand that the settlement did not fully resolve the investigation referenced in the CID. The documents relating to the settlement are not publicly available.

Table of Contents

While the Company believes that the acquisition, ownership and leasing of Lakeway Hospital through the Lakeway Partnership was and is in compliance with all applicable laws, in the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a $3.0 million legal reserve related to this matter which is included within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with the related expense included in other (expense) income – net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other

In addition, we are subject to various other legal proceedings, claims and other actions arising out of the normal course of business. While any legal proceeding or claim has an element of uncertainty, management believes that the outcome of each lawsuit, claim or legal proceeding that is pending or threatened, or all of them combined, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Indemnification Agreements

In connection with certain facility transitions, we have agreed to indemnify certain operators in certain events. As of June 30, 2022, our maximum funding commitment under these indemnification agreements was approximately $5.6 million. Claims under these indemnification agreements generally may be made within 18 months to 72 months of the transition date. These indemnification agreements were provided to certain operators in connection with facility transitions and generally would be applicable in the event that the prior operators do not perform under their transition agreements.

Overview

Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (“Parent”) is a Maryland corporation that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “Omega,” or “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) has elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Omega is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (“UPREIT”) under which all of Omega’s assets are owned directly or indirectly by, and all of Omega’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly through, its operating partnership subsidiary, OHI Healthcare Properties Limited Partnership (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Omega OP”). As of June 30, 2022, Parent owned approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding units of partnership interest in Omega OP (“Omega OP Units”), and other investors owned approximately 3% of the outstanding Omega OP Units.

Omega has one reportable segment consisting of investments in healthcare-related real estate properties located in the United States (“U.S.”) and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Our core business is to provide financing and capital to the long-term healthcare industry with a particular focus on SNFs, ALFs, and to a lesser extent, independent living facilities (“ILFs”), rehabilitation and acute care facilities (“specialty facilities”) and medical office buildings. Our core portfolio consists of our long-term leases and mortgage loans with healthcare operating companies and affiliates (collectively, our “operators”). All of our mortgages are secured by first liens on the underlying real estate and personal property of the operators. In addition to our core investments, we make loans to operators and/or their principals. These loans, which may be either unsecured or secured by the collateral of the borrower, are classified as other investments. From time to time, we also acquire equity interests in joint ventures or entities that support the long-term healthcare industry and our operators.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update

The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to significantly and adversely impact SNFs and long-term care providers due to the higher rates of virus transmission and fatality among the elderly and frail populations that these facilities serve. As a result, many of our operators have been and may continue to be significantly impacted by the pandemic. As discussed further in “Collectibility Issues” below, during the year we have had several operators that have failed to make contractual payments under their lease and loan agreements, and we have agreed to short-term deferrals and/or allowed the application of security deposits or letters of credit to pay rent for several operators.

We believe these operators were impacted by, among other things, reduced revenue as a result of lower occupancy and increased expenses resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and uncertainties regarding the continuing availability of sufficient government support. We remain cautious as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a significant impact on our operators and their financial conditions, particularly given continued uncertainty regarding the availability of sufficient government support and trend of reduced federal support to our operators beginning in 2021, the persistence of staffing shortages that continue to impact our operators’ occupancy levels and profitability, the impact of governmental vaccine mandates for staff on these ongoing staffing shortages, other factors that may impact virus transmission in our facilities, including genetic mutations of the virus into new variants, the commencement in April 2021 for many of our operators of the repayment of accelerated payments of Medicare funds that were previously received as Advanced Medicare payments in 2020 and the commencement in December 2021 of repayment of deferred FICA obligations.

We believe that the incidence and severity of COVID-19 at our operators among their residents and employees, based on reporting by our operators, tend to correlate with levels of incidence experienced by the community. It remains uncertain to what extent vaccination programs for COVID-19 and any booster doses will continue to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 in our facilities, particularly with regard to any new variants of the virus, the impact of governmental vaccine mandates for staff on ongoing staffing shortages in our facilities and other factors that impact virus transmission in our facilities. The impact of these programs will depend in part on the continued efficacy and delivery of the vaccine and booster doses in our facilities, compliance with staff vaccination requirements and participation levels in vaccination programs among the residents and employees of our operators and in the communities in which they operate.

Table of Contents

In addition to experiencing outbreaks of positive cases and deaths of residents and employees during the pandemic, our operators have been required to, and continue to, adapt their operations to manage the spread of the COVID-19 virus as well as the implementation of new treatments and vaccines, and to implement new requirements relating to infection control, staffing levels, personal protective equipment (“PPE”), testing mandates, quality of care, visitation protocols and reporting, among other regulations, throughout the pandemic while facing staffing shortages that have accelerated during the pandemic and that may impede the delivery of care. Many of our operators have reported incurring significant cost increases as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, with dramatic increases for facilities with positive cases. These increases have been offset to some extent by increases in reimbursements due to increased skilling in place, which has been necessitated by pandemic-related protocols and may decrease when such protocols subside or when the federally declared public health emergency expires. We believe these increases primarily stem from elevated labor costs, including increased use of overtime and bonus pay and reliance on agency staffing due to staffing shortages, as well as a significant increase in both the cost and usage of PPE, testing equipment and processes and supplies, as well as implementation of new infection control protocols and vaccination programs. In addition, operators who do not achieve full compliance with applicable vaccination and infection control requirements may face potential survey issues and penalties. At this time, there is significant uncertainty regarding the impact of such developments.

Our facilities, on average, experienced declines, in some cases that are material, in occupancy levels as a result of the pandemic. Occupancy in our facilities has generally improved on average since early 2021, with a slight reduction in growth in late 2021 and early 2022 due to the impact of new variants; however, average occupancy has not returned to pre-pandemic levels. It remains unclear when and the extent to which demand and occupancy levels will return to pre-COVID-19 levels. We believe these challenges to occupancy recovery may be in part due to staffing shortages, which in some cases have required operators to limit admissions, as well as COVID-19 related fatalities at the facilities, the delay of SNF placement and/or utilization of alternative care settings for those with lower level of care needs, the suspension and/or postponement of elective hospital procedures, fewer discharges from hospitals to SNFs and higher hospital readmittances from SNFs.

While substantial government support, primarily through the federal CARES Act in the U.S. and distribution of PPE, vaccines and testing equipment by federal and state governments, was allocated to SNFs and to a lesser extent to ALFs in 2020, federal relief efforts were limited in 2021 as have been relief efforts in certain states. We believe further government support will be needed to continue to offset these impacts, which may take the form of stimulus or reimbursement rate adjustments to reflect sustained cost changes experienced by operators. It is unclear whether and to what extent such government support will continue to be sufficient and timely to offset these impacts. In particular, while $25.5 billion in federal funding for healthcare providers impacted by COVID-19 was announced in September 2021 with distributions beginning in late 2021, it remains unclear the extent to which these funds or remaining unallocated funds under the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund (“Provider Relief Fund”) will be distributed to our operators in any meaningful way, whether additional funds will be added to the Provider Relief Fund or otherwise allocated to healthcare operators or our operators, or whether additional Medicaid funds under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the “American Rescue Plan Act”) or other Medicare or Medicaid reimbursement rates changes in the U.S. will ultimately support reimbursement to our operators. While certain states have provided pandemic-related relief measures and/or reimbursement increases, there remains uncertainty as to how widespread these measures will continue to be and to what extent they may be distributed to and benefit our operators, especially when the federally declared public health emergency expires or previously released federal funds to states have been fully utilized. Likewise, while certain states may in the course of routine rate-setting of Medicaid rates address inflationary factors and other expense-related items, there can be no assurance that these changes will be sufficient to offset existing increased inflation and expenses. See the “Government Regulation and Reimbursement” section below for additional information. Further, to the extent the cost and occupancy impacts on our operators continue or accelerate and are not offset by continued government relief that is sufficient and timely, we anticipate that the operating results of additional operators may be materially and adversely affected, some may be unwilling or unable to pay their contractual obligations to us in full or on a timely basis and we may be unable to restructure such obligations on terms as favorable to us as those currently in place.

Table of Contents

There are a number of uncertainties we face as we consider the continuing impact of COVID-19 on our business, including how long census disruption and elevated COVID-19 costs will last, the impact of vaccination programs, including booster doses, and participation levels in those programs in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in our facilities, the impact of genetic mutations of the virus into new variants on our facilities, the impact of vaccine mandates on ongoing staffing shortages in our facilities, and the extent to which funding support from the federal government and the states will continue to offset these incremental costs as well as lost revenues. Notwithstanding vaccination programs, we expect that heightened clinical protocols for infection control within facilities will continue for some period; however, we do not know if future reimbursement rates or equipment provided by governmental agencies will be sufficient to cover the increased costs of enhanced infection control and monitoring.

While we continue to believe that longer term demographics will drive increasing demand for needs-based skilled nursing care, we expect the uncertainties to our business described above to persist at least for the near term until we can gain more information as to the level of costs our operators will continue to experience and for how long, and the level of additional governmental support that will be available to them, the potential support our operators may request from us and the future demand for needs-based skilled nursing care and senior living facilities. We continue to monitor the rate of occupancy recovery at many of our operators, and it remains uncertain whether and when demand, staffing availability and occupancy levels will return to pre-COVID-19 levels.

Other Trends and Conditions

In addition to the impacts of COVID-19 discussed above, our operators have been and are likely to continue to be adversely affected by labor shortages and increased labor costs. In addition, our operations have also been and are likely to continue to be impacted by increased competition for the acquisition of facilities in the U.S., which has decreased the number of investment opportunities that would be accretive to our portfolio. As part of our continuous evaluation of our portfolio and in connection with certain operator restructuring transactions, we expect to continue to opportunistically sell assets, or portfolios of assets, from time to time.

We continue to monitor the impacts of other regulatory changes, as discussed below, including any significant limits on the scope of services reimbursed and on reimbursement rates and fees, which could have a material adverse effect on an operator’s results of operations and financial condition, which could adversely affect the operator’s ability to meet its obligations to us.

Government Regulation and Reimbursement

The following information supplements and updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained under the caption Item 1. Business – Government Regulation and Reimbursement in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The healthcare industry is heavily regulated. Our operators, which are primarily based in the U.S., are subject to extensive and complex federal, state and local healthcare laws and regulations; we also have several U.K.-based operators which are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in their jurisdiction. These laws and regulations are subject to frequent and substantial changes resulting from the adoption of new legislation, rules and regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations of existing law. The ultimate timing or effect of these changes, which may be applied retroactively, cannot be predicted. Changes in laws and regulations impacting our operators, in addition to regulatory non-compliance by our operators, can have a significant effect on the operations and financial condition of our operators, which in turn may adversely impact us. There is the potential that we may be subject directly to healthcare laws and regulations because of the broad nature of some of these regulations, such as the Anti-kickback Statute and False Claims Act, among others.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) declared a public health emergency on January 31, 2020 following the World Health Organization's decision to declare COVID-19 a public health emergency of international concern. This declaration, which has been extended through October 13, 2022, allows HHS to provide temporary regulatory waivers and new reimbursement rules designed to equip providers with flexibility to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic by suspending various Medicare patient coverage criteria and documentation and care requirements, including, for example, suspension of the three-day prior hospital stay coverage requirement and expanding the list of approved services which may be provided via telehealth. These regulatory actions have contributed, and may continue to contribute, to a change in census volumes and skilled nursing mix that may not otherwise have occurred. It remains uncertain when federal and state regulators will resume enforcement of those regulations which are waived or otherwise not being enforced during the public health emergency due to the exercise of enforcement discretion, and when the public health emergency declaration will terminate.

These temporary changes to regulations and reimbursement, as well as emergency legislation, including the CARES Act enacted on March 27, 2020 and discussed below, continue to have a significant impact on the operations and financial condition of our operators. The extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on the Company’s and our operators’ operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the sufficiency and timeliness of additional governmental relief, the duration, spread and intensity of the outbreak, the impact of genetic mutations of the virus into new variants, the impact of vaccine distributions and booster doses on our operators and their populations, the impact of vaccine mandates on staffing shortages at our operators, as well as the difference in how the pandemic may impact SNFs in contrast to ALFs, all of which developments and impacts are uncertain and difficult to predict. Due to these uncertainties, we are not able at this time to estimate the effect of these factors on our business; however, the adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be material.

A significant portion of our operators’ revenue is derived from government-funded reimbursement programs, consisting primarily of Medicare and Medicaid. As federal and state governments continue to focus on healthcare reform initiatives, efforts to reduce costs by government payors will likely continue. Significant limits on the scope of services reimbursed and/or reductions of reimbursement rates could therefore have a material adverse effect on our operators’ results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, new and evolving payor and provider programs that are tied to quality and efficiency could adversely impact our tenants’ and operators’ liquidity, financial condition or results of operations, and there can be no assurance that payments under any of these government healthcare programs are currently, or will be in the future, sufficient to fully reimburse the property operators for their operating and capital expenses. In addition to quality and value based reimbursement reforms, the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has implemented a number of initiatives focused on the reporting of certain facility specific quality of care indicators that could affect our operators, including publicly released quality ratings for all of the nursing homes that participate in Medicare or Medicaid under the CMS “Five Star Quality Rating System.” Facility rankings, ranging from five stars (“much above average”) to one star (“much below average”) are updated on a monthly basis. SNFs are required to provide information for the CMS Nursing Home Compare website regarding staffing and quality measures. These rating changes have impacted referrals to SNFs, and it is possible that changes to this system or other ranking systems could lead to future reimbursement policies that reward or penalize facilities on the basis of the reported quality of care parameters.

The following is a discussion of certain U.S. laws and regulations generally applicable to our operators, and in certain cases, to us.

Reimbursement Changes Related to COVID-19:

U.S. Federal Stimulus Funds and Financial Assistance for Healthcare Providers. In response to the pandemic, Congress has enacted a series of economic stimulus and relief measures. On March 18, 2020, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act was enacted in the U.S., providing a temporary 6.2% increase to each qualifying state and territory’s Medicaid Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (“FMAP”) effective January 1, 2020. The temporary FMAP increase will extend through the last day of the calendar quarter in which the public health emergency terminates. States will make individual determinations about how this additional Medicaid reimbursement will be applied to SNFs, if at all.

Table of Contents

In further response to the pandemic, the CARES Act authorized approximately $178 billion to be distributed through the Provider Relief Fund to reimburse eligible healthcare providers for healthcare related expenses or lost revenues that were attributable to coronavirus. As part of the $178 billion, in May 2020, HHS announced that approximately $9.5 billion in targeted distributions would be made available to eligible SNFs, approximately $2.5 billion of which were composed of performance-based incentive payments tied to a facility’s infection rate. Further, in September 2021, HHS announced the release of $25.5 billion in provider funding, including $17 billion of the $178 billion previously authorized through the CARES Act and $8.5 billion for rural providers, including those with Medicaid and Medicare patients, through the American Rescue Plan Act. The Provider Relief Fund is administered under the broad authority and discretion of HHS and recipients are not required to repay distributions received to the extent they are used in compliance with applicable requirements. Also in September 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) announced it would allocate $500 million to staffing, training and deployment of state-based nursing home and long-term care “strike teams” to assist facilities with known or suspected COVID-19 outbreaks. HHS continues to evaluate and provide allocations of, and issue regulation and guidance regarding, grants made under the CARES Act. There are substantial uncertainties regarding the extent to which our operators will receive additional funding from HHS.

The CARES Act and related legislation also made other forms of financial assistance available to healthcare providers, which have the potential to impact our operators to varying degrees. This assistance includes Medicare and Medicaid payment adjustments and an expansion of the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program, which made available accelerated payments of Medicare funds in order to increase cash flow to providers. These payments are loans that providers were scheduled to repay beginning one year from the issuance date of each provider’s or supplier’s accelerated or advance payment, with repayment made through automatic recoupment of 25% of Medicare payments otherwise owed to the provider or supplier for eleven months, followed by an increase to 50% for another six months, after which any outstanding balance would be repaid subject to an interest rate of 4%. We believe these repayments commenced for many of our operators in April 2021 and have adversely impacted, and will continue to adversely impact, operating cash flows of these operators.

The Budget Control Act of 2011 established a Medicare Sequestration of 2%, which is an automatic reduction of certain federal spending as a budget enforcement tool. Originally, the sequester was supposed to be in effect from FY 2013 to FY 2021. However, most recently, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act extended the sequester through FY 2031. Additional legislation, including the CARES Act and the Protecting Medicare and American Farmers Act, suspended the application of the sequester to Medicare from May 1, 2020, through March 30, 2022. It also limited Medicare reductions to 1% from April 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022. The full 2% Medicare sequestration is scheduled to be back in effect as of July 1, 2022. The sequestration is currently extended through fiscal year 2031. Per the Protecting Medicare and American Farmers from Sequester Cuts Act, the Medicare sequester percentage in FY 2030 will be 2.25% during the first 6 months of the FY 2030 and 3% for the next 6 months. Per the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Medicare sequester percentage in FY 2031 will be 4% during the first 6 months of the FY 2031 sequestration order and 0% for the next 6 months (October 2031 through March 2032). While not limited to healthcare providers, the CARES Act additionally provided payroll tax relief for employers, allowing them to defer payment of employer Social Security taxes that are otherwise owed for wage payments made after March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2021 with respect to 50% of the payroll taxes owed, with the remaining 50% deferred until December 31, 2022.

Quality of Care Initiatives and Additional Requirements Related to COVID-19. In addition to COVID-19 reimbursement changes, several regulatory initiatives announced in 2020 and 2021 focused on addressing quality of care in long-term care facilities, including those related to COVID-19 testing and infection control protocols, vaccine protocols, staffing levels, reporting requirements, and visitation policies, as well as increased inspection of nursing homes. In August 2021, CMS announced it was developing an emergency regulation requiring staff vaccinations within the nation’s more than 15,000 Medicare and Medicaid-participating nursing homes, and in September 2021, CMS further announced that the scope of the regulation will be expanded to include workers in hospitals, dialysis facilities, ambulatory surgical settings, and home health agencies. In addition, recent updates to the Nursing Home Care website and the Five Star Quality Rating System include revisions to the inspection process, adjustment of staffing rating thresholds, the implementation of new quality measures and the inclusion of a staff turnover percentage (over a 12-month period). Additionally, the Biden Administration announced a focus on implementing minimum staffing requirements and increased inspections as part of the nursing home reforms announced in the 2022 State of the Union Address. Although the American Rescue Plan Act did not allocate specific funds to SNF or ALF providers, certain funds were allocated to quality improvement organizations to provide infection control and vaccination uptake support to SNFs and to the CDC for staffing, training and deployment of state-based nursing home and long-term care “strike teams” to assist facilities with known or suspected COVID-19 outbreaks.

On June 16, 2020, the U.S. House of Representatives Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis announced the launch of an investigation into the COVID-19 response of nursing homes and the use of federal funds by nursing homes during the pandemic. The Select Subcommittee continued to be active throughout the remainder of 2020 and 2021 and the first half of 2022. In March 2021, the Oversight Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee held a hearing on examining the impact of private equity in the U.S. healthcare system, including the impact on quality of care provided within the skilled nursing industry. The Biden Administration additionally announced in March 2022 a focus on reviewing private equity investment specifically in the skilled nursing sector. These initiatives, as well as additional calls for government review of the role of private equity in the U.S. healthcare industry, could result in legislation imposing additional requirements on our operators.

Reimbursement Generally:

Medicaid. The American Rescue Plan Act contains several provisions designed to increase coverage, expand benefits, and adjust federal financing for state Medicaid programs. For example, the American Rescue Plan Act increased the FMAP by 10 percentage points for state home and community-based services expenditures beginning April 1, 2021 through March 30, 2022 in an effort to assist seniors and people with disabilities to receive services safely in the community rather than in nursing homes and other congregate care settings. As a condition for receiving the FMAP increase, states must enhance, expand, or strengthen their Medicaid home and community-based services program during this period. These potential enhancements to Medicaid reimbursement funding may be offset in certain states by state budgetary concerns, the ability of the state to allocate matching funds and to comply with the new requirements, the potential for increased enrollment in Medicaid due to unemployment and declines in family incomes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the potential allocation of state Medicaid funds available for reimbursement away from SNFs in favor of home and community-based programs. These challenges may particularly impact us in states where we have a larger presence, including Florida and Texas. In Texas in particular, several of our operators have historically experienced lower operating margins on their SNFs, as compared to other states, as a result of lower Medicaid reimbursement rates and higher labor costs. Our operators in Texas may also be adversely impacted by the expected expiration of an add-on by the state to the daily reimbursement rate for Medicaid patients that will terminate upon expiration of the federally declared public health emergency. In Florida, while added support to our operators during the pandemic has generally been limited, approximately $100 million in additional FMAP funds for nursing homes was approved by the State in November 2021, with the funds to be distributed through increased Medicaid payment rates over a three-month period and in March 2022, a revised state budget for 2022-23, which takes effect October 1, 2022, increased Medicaid reimbursement rates by 7.8% to fund, in part, increased wages for certain nursing home staff. In addition, on April 6, 2022, the State of Florida enacted staffing reforms for SNFs that may provide additional flexibility to our operators in meeting minimum staffing requirements by using supplemental staff. Since our operators’ profit margins on Medicaid patients are generally relatively low, more than modest reductions in Medicaid reimbursement or an increase in the percentage of Medicaid patients has in the past and may in the future adversely affect our operators’ results of operations and financial condition, which in turn could adversely impact us.

Medicare. On July 29, 2022, CMS issued a final rule regarding the government fiscal year 2023 Medicare payment rates and quality payment programs for SNFs, with aggregate Medicare Part A payments projected to increase by $904 million, or 2.7%, for fiscal year 2023 compared to fiscal year 2022. This estimated reimbursement increase is attributable to a 3.9% market basket increase factor plus a 1.5 percentage point market basket forecast error adjustment and less a 0.3 percentage point productivity adjustment, as well as a $780 million decrease in the SNF prospective payment system rates as a result of the recalibrated parity adjustment described below, which is being phased in over two years. The annual update is reduced by two percentage points for SNFs that fail to submit required quality data to CMS under the SNF Quality Reporting Program. CMS has indicated that these impact figures did not incorporate the SNF Value-Based Program reductions that are estimated to be $186 million in fiscal year 2023. While Medicare reimbursement rate setting, which takes effect annually each October, has historically included forecasted inflationary adjustments, the degree to which those forecasts accurately reflect current inflation rates remains uncertain. Additionally, it remains uncertain whether these adjustments will ultimately be offset by non-inflationary factors, including any adjustments related to the impact of various payment models, such as those described below.

Payments to providers continue to be increasingly tied to quality and efficiency. The Patient Driven Payment Model (“PDPM”), which was designed by CMS to improve the incentives to treat the needs of the whole patient, became effective October 1, 2019. CMS has stated that it intended PDPM to be revenue-neutral to operators, with future Medicare reimbursement reductions possible if that was not the case. In April 2022, CMS issued a proposal for comment, which included an adjustment to obtain that revenue neutrality as early as the 2023 rate setting period. After considering the feedback received in the rulemaking cycle, CMS is finalizing recalibration of the PDPM parity adjustment factor of 4.6% with a two-year phase-in period that would reduce SNF spending by 2.3%, or approximately $780 million, in each of fiscal years 2023 and 2024. Prior to COVID-19, we believed that certain of our operators could realize efficiencies and cost savings from increased concurrent and group therapy under PDPM and some had reported early positive results. Given the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, many operators are and may continue to be restricted from pursuing concurrent and group therapy and unable to realize these benefits. Additionally, our operators continue to adapt to the reimbursement changes and other payment reforms resulting from the value-based purchasing programs applicable to SNFs under the 2014 Protecting Access to Medicare Act. These reimbursement changes have had and may, together with any further reimbursement changes to PDPM or value-based purchasing models, in the future have an adverse effect on the operations and financial condition of some operators and could adversely impact the ability of operators to meet their obligations to us.

On May 27, 2020, CMS added physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology to the list of approved telehealth Providers for the Medicare Part B programs provided by a SNF as a part of the COVID-19 1135 waiver provisions. The COVID-19 1135 waiver provisions also allow for the facility to bill an originating site fee to CMS for telehealth services provided to Medicare Part B beneficiary residents of the facility when the services are provided by a physician from an alternate location, effective March 6, 2020 through the end of the public health emergency.

On June 29, 2022, CMS issued new and updated guidance to provide additional clarity to surveyors on regulatory requirements for participation of long term care facilities in the Medicare program and to address how compliance will be assessed. This included guidance related to, among other things, infection control and prevention, and staffing, as well as recommendations related to resident room capacity.

Other Regulation:

Department of Justice and Other Enforcement Actions. SNFs are under intense scrutiny for ensuring the quality of care being rendered to residents and appropriate billing practices conducted by the facility. The Department of Justice (“DOJ”) has historically used the False Claims Act to civilly pursue nursing homes that bill the federal government for services not rendered or care that is grossly substandard. For example, California prosecutors announced in March 2021 an investigation into a skilled nursing provider that is affiliated with one of our operators, alleging the chain manipulated the submission of staffing level data in order to improve its Five Star rating. In 2020, the DOJ launched a National Nursing Home Initiative to coordinate and enhance civil and criminal enforcement actions against nursing homes with grossly substandard deficiencies. Such enforcement activities are unpredictable and may develop over lengthy periods of time. An adverse resolution of any of these enforcement activities or investigations incurred by our operators may involve injunctive relief and/or substantial monetary penalties, either or both of which could have a material adverse effect on their reputation, business, results of operations and cash flows.

2022 and Recent Highlights

Investments

●

We acquired $108.5 million of real estate assets which included 30 facilities during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The initial cash yield (the initial annual contractual cash rent divided by the purchase price) on these asset acquisitions was between 8% and 9.5%.

●

We invested $16.0 million and $34.2 million under our construction-in-progress and capital improvement programs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

●

We advanced $2.2 million and $4.9 million under existing mortgage loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

●

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, Ciena Healthcare (“Ciena”) repaid $113.7 million under six mortgages. Concurrent with these repayments, we released the mortgage liens on six facilities in exchange for the partial repayment and extended the maturity date of all of the Ciena mortgage notes to June 30, 2030 (with exception of two loans with an aggregate principal balance of $34.3 million with maturity dates in 2022 and 2023).

Dispositions and Impairments

●

Financing Activities

●

In January 2022, our Board authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our outstanding common stock, from time to time, through March 2025. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 4.2 million shares, at an average price of $27.19 per share, and 5.2 million shares, at an average price of $27.32 per share, of our outstanding common stock, respectively.

Other Highlights

●

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we made $55.6 million and $81.4 million of new other investment loans with a weighted average interest rate of 12% and 10.9%, respectively. Our 2022 new other investment loans include $35.6 million related to a mezzanine loan entered into in the second quarter of 2022 with an existing operator that bears interest at a fixed rate of 12% per annum and matures on June 30, 2025, and $25 million related to a term loan entered into in the first quarter of 2022 with LaVie Care Centers, LLC (“LaVie,” f/k/a Consulate Health Care) that bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.5% per annum and matures on March 31, 2032. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we also advanced $42.7 million and $114.9 million, respectively, under existing other investment loans. Of the $42.7 million and $114.9 million, $7.1 million and $54.5 million, respectively, related to a revolving working capital loan which also had repayments of $12.4 million and $60.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

In 2022, Omega was again included in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index (GEI) – one of only 418 companies worldwide, and fewer than 15 U.S. REITs, to be included in the 2022 index.

Collectibility Issues

●

Agemo Holdings, LLC (“Agemo”) continued to not pay contractual rent and interest due under its lease and loan agreements during the first and second quarters of 2022. We have not recorded any rental income or interest income related to Agemo during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. We continue to have discussions with Agemo regarding restructuring the lease and loan agreements. In the first and second quarters of 2022, we recorded an additional provision for credit losses of $4.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively, related to the $25.0 million secured working capital loan (the “Agemo WC Loan”) as a result of a reduction in the fair value of the underlying collateral assets supporting the current carrying values.

●

Guardian did not make rent and interest payments under its lease and loan agreements during the first quarter of 2022 but resumed making contractual rent and interest payments during the second quarter of 2022, in accordance with the restructuring terms discussed further below. Guardian is on a cash basis of revenue recognition for lease purposes and we recorded rental income of $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 for contractual rent payments that were made. Additionally, the mortgage loan is on non-accrual status, and is being accounted for under the cost recovery method, so the $1.4 million of interest payments that we received during the three months ended June 30, 2022 were applied directly against the principal balance outstanding. We have recorded recoveries for credit losses of $1.4 million and $6.5 million related to Guardian during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a large paydown of the Guardian mortgage loan in the first quarter of 2022. In the first quarter of 2022, we transitioned eight facilities previously leased to Guardian to two other operators. Additionally, during the six months ended of June 30, 2022, we sold nine facilities previously leased to Guardian and three facilities previously subject to the Guardian mortgage loan. In the second quarter of 2022, we agreed to a formal restructuring agreement, master lease amendments and mortgage loan amendments with Guardian. As part of the restructuring agreement and related agreements, Omega agreed to, among other terms, allow for the retrospective deferral of $18.0 million of aggregate contractual rent and interest, with repayment required after September 30, 2024 and to reduce the combined rent and mortgage interest to an aggregate of $24.0 million per year as of July 1, 2022.

From January through March 2022, an operator representing 3.8% and 3.4% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, did not pay its contractual amounts due under its lease agreement. In March 2022, the lease with this operator was amended to allow for a short-term rent deferral for January through March 2022. This operator paid the contractual amount due under its lease agreement from April through June 2022. Omega holds a $1.0 million letter of credit and a $150 thousand security deposit from this operator. The operator remains current on its $20.0 million revolving credit facility, which is fully drawn as of June 30, 2022, and is secured by a first lien on the operator’s accounts receivable.

●

In March 2022, another operator, representing 1.0% and 2.1% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 1.6% and 2.1% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, did not pay its contractual amounts due under its lease agreement. In April 2022, the lease with this operator was amended to allow the operator to apply its $2.0 million security deposit in order to pay March 2022 rent and to allow for a short-term rent deferral for April 2022, with regular rent payments required to resume in May 2022. This operator paid contractual rent in May 2022, but failed to make the full contractual rent payment for June 2022. We placed this operator on a cash basis of revenue recognition during the second quarter of 2022 as collection of substantially all contractual lease payments due from them was no longer deemed probable. As a result, we wrote-off approximately $8.3 million of straight-line rent receivables through rental income during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

●

In June 2022, another operator, representing 2.2% and 1.0% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 2.2% and 2.1% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, short-paid the contractual rent amount due under its lease agreement by $0.6 million. At June 30, 2022, we held a $5.4 million of letter of credit as collateral from this operator. In July 2022, we drew the full amount of the letter of credit and applied $0.6 million of the proceeds to pay the unpaid portion of June rent. We are in discussions with this operator to allow the application of a portion of the remaining proceeds from the letter of credit towards future contractual rent for a short-term period.

●

In June 2022, we placed another operator, representing approximately 0.4% and 0.3% of our total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 0.5% and 0.5% of total revenue (excluding the impact of write-offs) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, on a cash basis of revenue recognition. The change in our evaluation of the collectability of future rent payments due from this operator was as a result of information received from the operator during the second quarter of 2022 regarding substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of placing this operator on a cash basis, we wrote-off approximately $2.1 million of straight-line rent receivables through rental income during the three months ended June 30, 2022. All facilities included in this operator’s master lease are included in assets held for sale as of June 30, 2022.

Results of Operations

The following is our discussion of the consolidated results of operations, financial position and liquidity and capital resources, which should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

Revenues

Our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $244.6 million, a decrease of approximately $12.8 million over the same period in 2021. Included below is a description of the material changes in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021:

●

Rental income was $211.4 million, a decrease of $9.5 million over the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $12.3 million decrease relating to Agemo, a cash basis operator from which we received no rental payments and recorded no rental income for in the second quarter of 2022; (ii) a $7.3 million decrease relating to the sale of 22 facilities formerly leased and operated by Gulf Coast, which was completed in the first quarter of 2022; (iii) a $3.3 million decrease related to one of the operators placed on a cash basis of revenue recognition during the second quarter of 2022 that only paid a portion of the contractual rent amount due during the second quarter of 2022; and (iv) a $2.1 million decrease related to the restructuring of the Guardian lease agreement, which included the sale or transition of 17 facilities in 2022 with corresponding reductions in base rent. The overall decrease in rental income was partially offset by (i) a $7.0 million increase due to a net reduction in straight-line rent receivable and lease inducement write-offs in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, as we had a $17.4 million straight-line rent receivable write-off associated with Gulf Coast in the second quarter of 2021 as a result of placing it on a cash basis for revenue recognition; (ii) a $4.2 million increase due to additional rental income in the second quarter of 2022 from acquisitions and construction in progress facilities being placed in service; and (iii) a net increase of $3.8 million due to lease extensions, facility transitions and capital expenditures.

●

Mortgage interest income was $19.6 million, a decrease of $4.4 million over the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $3.1 million decrease related to Guardian as a result of recognizing no interest income in the second quarter of 2022 on the $80.6 million mortgage loan, as we are accounting for the loan using the cost recovery method with interest payments applied to principal amounts outstanding and (ii) a $1.2 million write-off of effective interest in connection with the $113.7 million partial principal paydown on the Ciena mortgages during the second quarter of 2022.

Expenses

Our expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $174.2 million, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million over the same period in 2021. Included below is a description of the material changes in expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021:

●

Our depreciation and amortization expense was $83.2 million, a $2.6 million decrease over the same period in 2021. The decrease primarily relates to facility sales and facilities reclassified to assets held for sale, such as the 22 Gulf Coast facilities and the nine Guardian facilities that were sold in 2022, partially offset by facility acquisitions and capital additions.

Table of Contents

●

Our general and administrative expense was $18.8 million, a $3.6 million increase over the same period in 2021. The increase primarily relates to (i) a $1.3 million increase in outside services primarily related to consulting, (ii) a $1.0 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and (iii) a $0.6 million increase in payroll and benefits.

●

Our acquisition, merger and transition related costs were $4.0 million, an increase of $4.0 million over the same period in 2021. This increase primarily relates to costs incurred related to the transition of facilities with troubled operators.

●

Our recovery for credit losses was $1.6 million, a $5.1 million change over the same period in 2021. The change was primarily as a result of (i) changes in loan balances and decreases in loss rates, utilized in the estimate of expected losses for loans, in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 and (ii) recoveries for cash collections received on loans reserved down to the fair value of the collateral, partially offset by (i) provisions recorded on the Agemo WC Loan, the $20.0 million working capital loan that was entered into in November 2021 and the $25.0 million Gulf Coast debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) facility.

Other Income (Expense)

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, total other income was $20.8 million, an increase of approximately $16.5 million over the same period in 2021. The increase was mainly due to a $21.1 million increase in gain on assets sold related to the sale of 13 facilities in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the sale of six facilities during the same period in 2021 partially offset by a $3.0 million legal reserve recorded in other (expense) income – net discussed in Note 18 – Commitments and Contingencies.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

Revenues

Our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $494.0 million, a decrease of approximately $37.2 million over the same period in 2021. Included below is a description of the material changes in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021:

●

Rental income was $428.3 million, a decrease of $30.4 million over the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $23.8 million decrease relating to Agemo, a cash basis operator, from which we received no rental payments and recorded no rental income during the first and second quarters of 2022; (ii) a $14.6 million decrease due to recognizing no rental income related to Gulf Coast, a cash basis operator, in 2022, as we received no contractual payments in the first quarter related to the lease with this operator, and we sold or transitioned 23 of the facilities subject to the Gulf Coast lease in March 2022; (iii) an $8.1 million decrease relates to Guardian, due to the restructuring of the lease agreement (discussed under “Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 – Revenues” above) and as a result of only receiving three months of payments from Guardian during 2022. The overall decrease in rental income was partially offset by (i) a $10.7 million increase due to additional rental income in the second quarter of 2022 from acquisitions and construction in progress facilities being placed in service and (ii) a $6.6 million increase due to a net reduction in straight-line rent receivable and lease inducement write-offs in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as we had a $17.4 million straight-line rent receivable write-off associated with Gulf Coast in the second quarter of 2021 as a result of placing it on a cash basis for revenue recognition.

●

Mortgage interest income was $40.1 million, a $7.5 million decrease over the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $6.1 million decrease related to Guardian as a result of recognizing no interest income in 2022 on the $80.6 million mortgage loan, as we are accounting for the loan using the cost recovery method with interest payments applied to principal amounts outstanding and (ii) a $1.2 million write-off of effective interest receivables, that is recorded as a reduction to mortgage interest income, in connection with the $113.7 million partial principal paydown on the Ciena mortgages during the second quarter of 2022.

Expenses

Our expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $341.9 million, an increase of approximately $24.4 million over the same period in 2021. Included below is a description of the material changes in expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021:

●

Our depreciation and amortization expense was $166.0 million, a $4.7 million decrease over the same period in 2021. The decrease primarily relates to facility sales and facilities reclassified to assets held for sale, such as the 22 Gulf Coast facilities that were sold in the first quarter of 2022 and the nine Guardian facilities that were sold in the first and second quarters of 2022, partially offset by facility acquisitions and capital additions.

●

Our general and administrative expense was $35.2 million, a $3.8 million increase over the same period in 2021. The increase primarily relates to (i) a $2.5 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and (ii) a $1.2 million increase in outside services primarily related to consulting.

●

Our acquisition, merger and transition related costs were $5.5 million, an increase of $3.7 million over the same period in 2021. This increase primarily relates to costs incurred related to the transition of facilities with troubled operators.

●

Our impairment on real estate properties was $11.2 million, a decrease of $26.3 million over the same period in 2021. The 2022 impairments were recognized in connection with two facilities that were classified as held-for-sale for which the carrying values exceeded the estimated fair values less costs to sell and four held-for-use facilities for which it was determined that the carrying value exceeded the fair value. The 2021 impairments were recognized in connection with six facilities that were classified as held-for-sale for which the carrying values exceeded the estimated fair values less costs to sell and one held-for-use facility for which it was determined that the carrying value exceeded the fair value.

●

Our provision for credit losses was $0.3 million, a $2.3 million decrease over the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily as a result of recoveries for cash collections and paydowns received on the Guardian mortgage, partially offset by (i) net provisions recorded on the Agemo WC Loan, the $20.0 million working capital loan that was entered into in November 2021 and the Gulf Coast DIP facility and (ii) an increase in balances, loss rates and weighted average years to maturity. See further discussion on specific loan reserves in Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Collectibility Issues.

Other Income (Expense)

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, total other income was $133.9 million, an increase of approximately $58.8 million over the same period in 2021. The increase was mainly due to (i) a $34.4 million increase in gain on assets sold related to the sale of 40 facilities compared to the sale of 30 facilities during the same period in 2021 and (ii) a $30.1 million decrease in loss on debt extinguishment primarily related to fees, premiums, and expenses related to the early redemption of $350 million of principal of the 4.375% Senior Notes due 2023 during the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by a $3.0 million legal reserve recorded in other (expense) income – net discussed in Note 18 – Commitments and Contingencies.

Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, income from unconsolidated joint ventures was $3.4 million, a decrease of approximately $9.6 million over the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to one of the joint ventures realizing a $14.9 million gain on sale of real estate investments during the first quarter of 2021.

National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts Funds From Operations

We use funds from operations (“Nareit FFO”), a non-GAAP financial measure, as one of several criteria to measure the operating performance of our business. We calculate and report Nareit FFO in accordance with the definition of Funds from Operations and interpretive guidelines issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). Nareit FFO is defined as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for the effects of asset dispositions and certain non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization and impairment on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and changes in the fair value of warrants. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. Revenue recognized based on the application of security deposits and letters of credit or based on the ability to offset against other financial instruments is included within Nareit FFO. We believe that Nareit FFO is an important supplemental measure of our operating performance. As real estate assets (except land) are depreciated under GAAP, such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. Nareit FFO was designed by the real estate industry to address this issue. Nareit FFO herein is not necessarily comparable to Nareit FFO of other REITs that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from us.

We further believe that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairment on real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, Nareit FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. We offer this measure to assist the users of our financial statements in evaluating our financial performance under GAAP, and Nareit FFO should not be considered a measure of liquidity, an alternative to net income or an indicator of any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in our securities should not rely on this measure as a substitute for any GAAP measure, including net income.

The following table presents our Nareit FFO results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses

Our primary sources of cash include rental income and interest receipts, existing availability under our revolving credit facility, proceeds from our Dividend Reinvestment and Common Stock Purchase Plan (“DRSPP”) and the $1.0 billion 2021 At-The-Market Offering Program (“2021 ATM Program”), facility sales, and proceeds from mortgage and other investment payoffs. We anticipate that these sources will be adequate to fund our cash flow needs through the next twelve months, which include common stock dividends, debt service payments (including principal and interest), real estate investments (including facility acquisitions, capital improvement programs and other capital expenditures), mortgage and other investment loan advances and normal recurring G&A expenses (primarily consisting of employee payroll and benefits and expenses relating to third parties for legal, consulting and audit services).

Capital Structure

At June 30, 2022, we had total assets of $9.5 billion, total equity of $3.9 billion and total debt of $5.4 billion in our consolidated financial statements, with such debt representing approximately 57.7% of total capitalization.

Debt

At June 30, 2022, the weighted-average annual interest rate of our debt was 4.1%. Additionally, as of June 30, 2022, 98% of our debt with outstanding principal balances has fixed interest payments. As of June 30, 2022, we had long-term credit ratings of Baa3 from Moody’s and BBB- from S&P Global and Fitch. Credit ratings impact our ability to access capital and directly impact our cost of capital as well. For example, our revolving credit facility accrues interest and fees at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus a margin that depends upon our credit rating. A downgrade in credit ratings by Moody’s and S&P Global may have a negative impact on the interest rates and fees for our revolving credit facility.

Certain of our other secured and unsecured borrowings are subject to customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants, for our secured and unsecured borrowings.

Supplemental Guarantor Information

Parent has issued approximately $4.9 billion aggregate principal of senior notes outstanding at June 30, 2022 that were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The senior notes are guaranteed by Omega OP.

The SEC adopted amendments to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X and created Rule 13-01 to simplify disclosure requirements related to certain registered securities, such as our senior notes. As a result of these amendments, registrants are permitted to provide certain alternative financial and non-financial disclosures, to the extent material, in lieu of separate financial statements for subsidiary issuers and guarantors of registered debt securities. Accordingly, separate consolidated financial statements of Omega OP have not been presented. Parent and Omega OP, on a combined basis, have no material assets, liabilities or operations other than financing activities (including borrowings under the outstanding senior notes, the revolving credit facility and the OP term loan) and their investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Omega OP is currently the sole guarantor of our senior notes. The guarantees by Omega OP of our senior notes are full and unconditional and joint and several with respect to the payment of the principal and premium and interest on our senior notes. The guarantees of Omega OP are senior unsecured obligations of Omega OP that rank equal with all existing and future senior debt of Omega OP and are senior to all subordinated debt. However, the guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured debt of Omega OP. As of June 30, 2022, there were no significant restrictions on the ability of Omega OP to make distributions to Omega.

Equity

At June 30, 2022, we had approximately 234.1 million shares of common stock outstanding, and our shares had a market value of $6.6 billion. The following is a summary of activity under our equity programs, excluding share repurchases, which are discussed in Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Financing Activities above, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022:

●

We did not issue any shares of common stock under our 2021 ATM Program during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. We did not utilize the forward provisions under the 2021 ATM Program during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. We have $929.9 million of potential sales remaining under the 2021 ATM Program as of June 30, 2022.

●

We issued 84.6 thousand and 164.5 thousand shares of common stock under the DRSPP during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Aggregate gross proceeds from these sales were $2.3 million and $4.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Dividends

As a REIT, we are required to distribute dividends (other than capital gain dividends) to our stockholders in an amount at least equal to (A) the sum of (i) 90% of our “REIT taxable income” (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and our net capital gain), and (ii) 90% of the net income (after tax), if any, from foreclosure property, minus (B) the sum of certain items of non-cash income. In addition, if we dispose of any built-in gain asset during a recognition period, we will be required to distribute at least 90% of the built-in gain (after tax), if any, recognized on the disposition of such asset. Such distributions must be paid in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if declared before we timely file our tax return for such year and paid on or before the first regular dividend payment after such declaration. In addition, such distributions are required to be made pro rata, with no preference to any share of stock as compared with other shares of the same class, and with no preference to one class of stock as compared with another class except to the extent that such class is entitled to such a preference. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net capital gain or do distribute at least 90%, but less than 100% of our “REIT taxable income” as adjusted, we will be subject to tax thereon at regular ordinary and capital gain corporate tax rates.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we paid dividends of approximately $318.3 million to our common stockholders. On February 15, 2022, we paid dividends of $0.67 per outstanding common share to the common stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 7, 2022. On May 13, 2022, we paid dividends of $0.67 per outstanding common share to the common stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 2, 2022.

Material Cash Requirements

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no significant changes to our material cash requirements from those disclosed in the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2021 Annual Report.

As of June 30, 2022, we had $214.5 million of commitments to fund the construction of new leased and mortgaged facilities, capital improvements and other commitments. Additionally, we have commitments to fund $157.0 million of advancements under existing other investment loans, which includes $24.8 million related to the increased commitment on the Maplewood $250.5 million secured revolving credit facility and a $90.0 million short-term revolving line of credit to an existing operator on which no amount has been drawn as of June 30, 2022. These commitments are expected to be funded over the next several years and are dependent upon the operators’ election to use the commitments.

Other Arrangements

We own interests in certain unconsolidated joint ventures as described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – Investments in Joint Ventures. Our risk of loss is generally limited to our investment in the joint venture and any outstanding loans receivable. We use derivative instruments to hedge interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate exposure as discussed in Note 15 – Derivatives and Hedging in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Cash Flow Summary

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $168.5 million as of June 30, 2022, an increase of $144.1 million as compared to the balance at December 31, 2021. The following is a discussion of changes in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash due to operating, investing and financing activities, which are presented in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Operating Activities – Operating activities generated $305.2 million of net cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $378.3 million for the same period in 2021, a decrease of $73.1 million, which is primarily driven by a decrease of $59.9 million of net income, net of $95.8 million of non-cash items, primarily due to a year over year reduction in rental income and mortgage revenue, as discussed in our material changes analysis under Results of Operations above. A $13.2 million change in the net movements of the operating assets and liabilities also contributed to the overall decrease in cash provided by operating activities.

Investing Activities – Net cash flow from investing activities was an inflow of $277.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an outflow of $387.1 million for the same period in 2021. The $664.3 million change in cash flow from investing activities related primarily to (i) a $491.8 million decrease in real estate acquisitions driven by the acquisition of 24 senior living facilities from Healthpeak Properties, Inc. for $511.3 million in the first quarter of 2021, (ii) a $185.7 million increase in proceeds from the sales of real estate investments largely driven by the sale of 22 facilities previously leased to Gulf Coast for net cash proceeds of $304.0 million in the first quarter of 2022, (iii) a $104.6 million increase in mortgage collections, net of placements driven by a $21.7 million partial principal paydown on the Guardian mortgage loan in the first quarter of 2022 and a $113.7 million partial principal paydown on the Ciena mortgages in the second quarter of 2022 and (iv) a $10.4 million decrease in investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by our $10.3 million investment in Second Spring II LLC in the first quarter of 2021, offset by (i) a $106.0 million increase in other investments advances and placements, net of receipts driven by the new $35.6 million mezzanine loan with an existing operator entered into in the second quarter of 2022, the $25.0 million term loan to LaVie entered into in the first quarter of 2022 and additional draws on existing loans, (ii) a $14.3 million decrease in distributions from unconsolidated joint venture in excess of earnings primarily related to the Second Spring Healthcare Investments joint venture due to significant facility sales in the first quarter of 2021, (iii) a $2.9 million decrease in receipts from insurance proceeds, (iv) a $2.5 million decrease in acquisition related deposits and (v) a $1.6 million increase in investment in construction in progress and capital expenditures.

Financing Activities – Net cash flow from financing activities was an outflow of $436.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an outflow of $54.3 million for the same period in 2021. The $382.5 million change in cash flow from financing activities was primarily related to (i) a $221.2 million decrease in cash proceeds from the issuance of common stock in 2022 due to decreased issuances under our DRSPP and our 2021 ATM Program, as compared to the same period in 2021, (ii) $142.3 million of repurchases of shares of common stock in 2022, (iii) a $60.2 million decrease in proceeds from other long-term borrowings, net of repayments, (iv) a $9.7 million increase in redemptions of OP units and (v) a $1.7 million increase in dividends paid. The overall increase in financing outflows was partially offset by (i) a $48.1 million decrease in payment of financing related costs due to fees and premiums paid in the first quarter of 2021 related to the early redemption of $350 million of principal of the 4.375% senior notes due 2023 and (ii) a $4.6 million decrease in distributions to Omega OP Unit holders.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the U.S. Our preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements. We have described our accounting policies in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates since December 31, 2021.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, there were no material changes in our primary market risk exposures or how those exposures are managed from the information disclosed under Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In connection with the preparation of our Form 10-Q as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company as of June 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that disclosure controls and procedures of the Company were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2022.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 identified in connection with the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 – Legal Proceedings

In addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A contained in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, investors should carefully consider the following additional risk factor, which should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set forth in such Form 10-K and the other information contained in this report and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Inflation could adversely impact our operators and our results of operations.

Inflation, both real or anticipated, as well as any resulting governmental policies, could adversely affect the economy and the costs of labor, goods and services to our operators or borrowers. Our long-term leases and loans typically contain provisions such as rent and interest escalators that are designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on Omega’s results of operations. However, these provisions may have limited effectiveness at mitigating the risk of high levels of inflation due to contractual limits on escalation that exist in substantially all of our escalation provisions. Our leases are triple-net and typically require the operator to pay all property operating expenses, and therefore, increases in property-level expenses at our leased properties generally do not directly affect us. However, increased operating costs resulting from inflation could have an adverse impact on our operators and borrowers if increases in their operating expenses exceed increases in their revenue, which may adversely affect our operators’ or borrowers’ ability to pay rent or other obligations owed to us.

An increase in our operators’ expenses and a failure of their revenues to increase at least with inflation could adversely impact our operators’ and our financial condition and our results of operations.

Item 2 – Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, Omega did not issue any shares of Omega common stock in exchange for Omega OP Units.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On January 27, 2022, the Board authorized the Company to repurchase of up to $500 million of our outstanding common stock from time to time through March 2025. The Company is authorized to repurchase shares of its common stock in open market and privately negotiated transactions or in any other manner as determined by the Company’s management and in accordance with applicable law. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will be determined, in management’s discretion, based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to market conditions, other capital management needs and opportunities, and corporate and regulatory considerations. The Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock, and such repurchases, if any, may be discontinued at any time.

During the second quarter of 2022, we repurchased shares of our outstanding common stock as follows:
