NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2008
(unaudited)
(1) General
This Report on Form 10-Q is for the Quarterly Period ended June 30, 2008. In this Quarterly Report, we, us, our and the Trust refer to Universal Health Realty Income Trust.
You should carefully review all of the information contained in this Quarterly Report, and should particularly consider any risk factors that we set forth in this Quarterly Report and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). In this Quarterly Report, we state our beliefs of future events and of our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify those so-called forward-looking statements by words such as may, will, should, could, would, predicts, potential, continue, expects, anticipates, future, intends, plans, believes, estimates, appears, projects and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense. You should be aware that those statements are only our predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating those statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlined in Item 2- Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, under Forward Looking Statements and Certain Risk Factors as disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2008 and as outlined in Item 1A-Risk Factors as disclosed in our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Those factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any of our forward-looking statements.
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the term revenues does not include the revenues of the unconsolidated limited liability companies in which we have various non-controlling equity interests ranging from 33% to 99%. We currently account for our share of the income/loss from these investments by the equity method (see Note 5). As of June 30, 2008, we had investments or commitments in twenty-seven limited liability companies (LLCs), twenty-five of which are accounted for by the equity method and two that are currently consolidated in our financial statements
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in our opinion, are necessary to fairly present results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
(2) Relationship with Universal Health Services, Inc. (UHS) and Related Party Transactions
Leases: We commenced operations in 1986 by purchasing certain subsidiaries from UHS and immediately leasing the properties back to the respective subsidiaries. Most of the leases were entered into at the time we commenced operations and provided for initial terms of 13 to 15 years with up to six additional 5-year renewal terms, with base rents set forth in the leases effective for all but the last two renewal terms. The base rents are paid monthly and each lease also provides for additional or bonus rents which are computed and paid on a quarterly basis based upon a computation that compares current quarter revenue to a corresponding quarter in the base year. The leases with subsidiaries of UHS are unconditionally guaranteed by UHS and are cross-defaulted with one another.
The combined revenues generated from the leases on the UHS hospital facilities accounted for approximately 56% and 57% of our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and 57% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Including 100% of the revenues generated at the unconsolidated LLCs in which we have various non-controlling equity interests ranging from 33% to 99%, the leases on the UHS hospital facilities accounted for approximately 23% of the combined consolidated and unconsolidated revenue for each of the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and 22% and 23% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In addition, seven MOBs (plus two additional MOBs under construction as of June 30, 2008) owned by LLCs in which we hold various non-controlling equity interests, include or will include tenants which are subsidiaries of UHS.
Pursuant to the Master Lease Document by and among us and certain subsidiaries of UHS, dated December 24, 1986 (the Master Lease), which governs the leases of all hospital properties with subsidiaries of UHS, UHS has the option to renew the leases at the lease terms described below by providing notice to us at least 90 days prior to the termination of the then current term. In addition, UHS has rights of first refusal to: (i) purchase the respective leased facilities during and for 180 days after the lease terms at the same price, terms and conditions of any third-party offer, or; (ii) renew the lease on the respective leased facility at the end of, and for 180 days after, the lease term at the same terms and conditions pursuant to any third-party offer. UHS also has the right to purchase the respective leased facilities at the end of the lease terms or any renewal terms at the appraised fair market value. In addition, during 2006, as part of the overall asset exchange and substitution proposal relating to Chalmette Medical Center (Chalmette), as discussed
6
Table of Contents
below, as well as the early five year lease renewals on Southwest Healthcare System-Inland Valley Campus (Inland Valley), Wellington Regional Medical Center (Wellington), McAllen Medical Center (McAllen) and The Bridgeway (Bridgeway), we agreed to amend the Master Lease to include a change of control provision. The change of control provision grants UHS the right, upon one months notice should a change of control of the Trust occur, to purchase any or all of the four leased hospital properties at their appraised fair market value.
We are committed to invest up to a total of $7.9 million in equity and debt financing, of which $1.8 million has been funded as of June 30, 2008, in exchange for a 95% non-controlling equity interest in a limited liability company that constructed, owns, and operates the Palmdale Medical Plaza, located in Palmdale, California, on the campus of a UHS hospital that is currently under construction. This medical office building (MOB) has a triple net, 75% master lease commitment by UHS of Palmdale, Inc., a subsidiary of UHS, pursuant to the terms of which the master lease for each suite will be cancelled at such time that the suite is leased for a minimum term of five years to another tenant acceptable to the LLC and UHS. This MOB, tenants of which will include subsidiaries of UHS, was completed and opened during the third quarter of 2008 at which time the master lease commenced. Based upon the executed leases and letter of intent commitments in place as of June 30, 2008, the master lease threshold of 75% has not been met. The LLC has a $9.9 million construction loan commitment from a third-party, which is non-recourse to us, of which $7.8 million has been borrowed as of June 30, 2008. This LLC, which is deemed to be a variable interest entity, is consolidated in our financial statements as of June 30, 2008 since we are the primary beneficiary.
We are committed to invest up to $6.4 million in debt or equity, of which $95,000 has been funded as of June 30, 2008, in exchange for a 95% non-controlling equity interest in a LLC that will develop, construct, own and operate the Summerlin Medical Office Building III, located in Las Vegas, Nevada, on the campus of a UHS hospital. This MOB has a triple net, 37% master lease commitment by Summerlin Hospital Medical Center, LLC, a subsidiary of UHS, pursuant to which the master lease for each suite will be cancelled at such time that the suite is leased for a minimum term of five years to another tenant acceptable to the LLC and UHS. The LLC has a third-party construction loan commitment of $14.4 million, which is non-recourse to us, of which $4.9 million has been borrowed as of June 30, 2008. This building, tenants of which will include subsidiaries of UHS, is scheduled to be completed and opened during the fourth quarter of 2008.
During the third quarter of 2005, Chalmette, an acute care hospital located in Chalmette, Louisiana, was severely damaged and closed as a result of Hurricane Katrina. At that time, the majority of the real estate assets of Chalmette were leased from us by a subsidiary of UHS and, in accordance with the terms of the lease, and as part of an overall evaluation of the leases between subsidiaries of UHS and us, UHS offered substitution properties rather than exercise its right to rebuild the facility or offer cash for Chalmette. Independent appraisals were obtained by us and UHS which indicated that the pre-hurricane fair market value of the leased facility was $24.0 million.
During the third quarter of 2006, we completed the asset exchange and substitution pursuant to the Asset Exchange and Substitution Agreement (Agreement) with UHS whereby we agreed to terminate the lease between us and Chalmette and to transfer the real property assets and all rights attendant thereto (including insurance proceeds) of Chalmette to UHS in exchange and substitution for newly constructed real property assets owned by UHS (Capital Additions) at Wellington, Bridgeway and Inland Valley, in satisfaction of the obligations under the Chalmette lease. The Capital Additions consist of properties which were recently constructed on, or adjacent to, facilities already owned by us as well as a recently constructed Capital Addition at Inland Valley which was completed and opened during the third quarter of 2007. Pursuant to section 1033(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the IRC), we recognized no gain for federal income tax purposes based upon the terms of the transaction as agreed upon in the Agreement.
The total cost of the Capital Addition at Inland Valley amounted to $11.7 million, which exceeded the $11.0 million threshold included in the Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the $760,000 of cost in excess of the $11.0 million threshold has been paid to UHS in cash and UHS will pay incremental rent on the $760,000 excess cost at a rate of 6.75%.

UHS Legal Proceedings: We have been advised by UHS that UHS, together with its South Texas Health System affiliates, which operate McAllen Medical Center, were served with a subpoena dated November 21, 2005, issued by the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services (OIG). At that time, the Civil Division of the U.S. Attorneys office in Houston, Texas indicated that the subpoena was part of an investigation under the False Claims Act regarding compliance with Medicare and Medicaid rules and regulations pertaining to the employment of physicians and the solicitation of patient referrals from physicians from January 1, 1999 to the date of the subpoena, related to the South Texas Health System. UHS has advised us that since January of 2006, documents were produced on a rolling basis pursuant to this subpoena and several additional requests, including an additional March 9, 2007 subpoena. On February 16, 2007, UHSs South Texas Health System affiliates were served with a search warrant in connection with what UHS has been advised is a related criminal Grand Jury investigation concerning the production of documents. At that time, the government obtained various documents and other property related to the facilities. Follow-up Grand Jury subpoenas for documents and witnesses and other requests for information were subsequently served on South Texas Health System facilities and certain UHS employees and former employees.
UHS has advised us that they have received notification from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) that, at this time, the DOJ will not be pursuing criminal prosecutive action against UHS or its South Texas Health System affiliates. The DOJ is still investigating whether or not any individuals independently obstructed justice as it relates to the civil subpoena dated November 21, 2005. Representatives of UHS have been advised that the Civil Division of the U.S. Attorneys office in Houston, Texas is continuing its investigation in connection with the civil subpoena dated November 21, 2005 issued by the OIG. UHSs legal representatives continue to meet with representatives of the Civil Division to discuss the status of this matter. UHS understands that, based on those discussions and its investigations to date, the government is focused on certain arrangements entered into by the South Texas Health System affiliates which, the government believes, may have violated Medicare and Medicaid rules and regulations pertaining to payments to physicians and the solicitation of patient referrals from physicians and other matters relating to payments to various individuals which may have constituted improper payments. UHS is cooperating with the investigations and responding to the matters raised with them. UHS expects to continue its discussions with the government to attempt to resolve this matter in a manner satisfactory to UHS and the government. There is no assurance that UHS will be able to do so, and, at this time, UHS is unable to evaluate the extent of any potential financial or other exposure in connection with this matter.
UHS has advised us that it monitors all aspects of its business and that it has developed a comprehensive ethics and compliance program that is designed to meet or exceed applicable federal guidelines and industry standards. Because the law in this area is complex and constantly evolving, governmental investigation or litigation may result in interpretations that are inconsistent with industry practices, including UHSs. Although UHS believes its policies, procedures and practices comply with governmental regulations, from time to time UHS is subjected to inquiries or actions with respect to its facilities and there is no assurance that UHS will not face sanctions, fines or penalties in connection with such inquiries or actions, including with respect to the investigation of its South Texas Health System affiliates. Even if UHS were to ultimately prevail, the governments inquiry and/or action in connection with this matter could have a material adverse effect on UHSs future operating results and on the future operating results of McAllen Medical Center. While the base rentals are guaranteed by UHS through the end of the existing lease term, should this matter adversely impact the future revenues and/or operating results of McAllen Medical Center, the future bonus rental earned by us on this facility may be materially, adversely impacted. Bonus rental revenue earned by us from McAllen Medical Center amounted to $889,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and $1.7 million during 2007. We can provide no assurance that this matter will not have a material adverse impact on underlying value of McAllen Medical Center or on the future base rental earned on this facility should the existing lease not be renewed pursuant to its current lease rates after its December, 2011 scheduled expiration of the existing lease term.
Advisory Agreement: UHS of Delaware, Inc. (the Advisor), a wholly-owned subsidiary of UHS, serves as Advisor to us under an Advisory Agreement (the Advisory Agreement) dated December 24, 1986. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is obligated to present an investment program to us, to use its best efforts to obtain investments suitable for such program (although it is not obligated to present any particular investment opportunity to us), to provide administrative services to us and to conduct our day-to-day affairs. In performing its services under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor may utilize independent professional services, including accounting, legal, tax and other services, for which the Advisor is reimbursed directly by us. The Advisory Agreement expires on December 31 of each year; however, it is renewable by us, subject to a determination by the Trustees who are unaffiliated with UHS (the Independent Trustees), that the Advisors performance has been satisfactory. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated for any reason upon sixty days written notice by us or the Advisor. The Advisory Agreement has been renewed for 2008. All transactions between us and UHS must be approved by the Independent Trustees.
The Advisory Agreement provides that the Advisor is entitled to receive an annual advisory fee equal to 0.60% of our average invested real estate assets, as derived from our consolidated balance sheet. The advisory fee is payable quarterly, subject to adjustment at year-end based upon our audited financial statements. In addition, the Advisor is entitled to an annual incentive fee equal to 20% of the amount by which cash available for distribution to shareholders for each year, as defined in the Advisory Agreement, exceeds 15% of our equity as shown on our consolidated balance sheet, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles without reduction for return of capital dividends. The Advisory Agreement defines cash

available for distribution to shareholders as net cash flow from operations less deductions for, among other things, amounts required to discharge our debt and liabilities and reserves for replacement and capital improvements to our properties and investments. Advisory fees incurred and paid (or payable) to UHS amounted to $376,000 and $356,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $743,000 and $707,000 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. No incentive fees were paid in either period.
Officers and Employees: Our officers are all employees of UHS and although as of June 30, 2008 we had no salaried employees, our officers do receive stock-based compensation from time-to-time.
Share Ownership: As of June 30, 2008, UHS owned 6.6% of our outstanding shares of beneficial interest.
SEC reporting requirements of UHS: UHS is subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC and is required to file annual reports containing audited financial information and quarterly reports containing unaudited financial information. Since the leases on the hospital facilities leased to wholly-owned subsidiaries of UHS comprised approximately 56% and 57% of our consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and 57% for both six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and since UHS is our Advisor, you are encouraged to obtain the publicly available filings for UHS, Inc. from the SECs website at www.sec.gov. These filings are the sole responsibility of UHS and are not incorporated by reference herein.
(3) Dividends
A dividend of $.58 per share or $6.9 million in the aggregate was declared by the Board of Trustees on March 7, 2008 and was paid on March 31, 2008 to shareholders of record as of March 17, 2008.
A dividend of $.585 per share or $6.9 million in the aggregate was declared by the Board of Trustees on June 6, 2008 and was paid on June 30, 2008 to shareholders of record as of June 16, 2008.
(4) Acquisitions and Dispositions
Acquisitions during the first six months of 2008:
In February, 2008, we purchased Kindred Hospital, Corpus Christi, an unaffiliated long-term sub-acute care hospital located in Corpus Christi, Texas for a total purchase price of $8.1 million. We paid $4.7 million in cash and assumed $3.4 million of third-party mortgage debt that is non-recourse to us. The lease payments on this facility are unconditionally guaranteed by Kindred Healthcare, Inc. until its scheduled expiration in June, 2019. The proforma effect of this acquisition did not have a material impact on our results of operations. The purchase price of this property was allocated to net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired based on fair value indications. Intangible assets include amounts representing the value of the tenant relationship and the in-place lease at the time of acquisition.
Dispositions during the first six months of 2007:
During the second quarter of 2007, we completed the sale of the Fresno-Herndon Medical Plaza, a medical office building located in Fresno, California. The financial results of this property are reflected as discontinued operations on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. This transaction resulted in a gain of $2.3 million which is included in Income from discontinued operations, net on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, RioMed Investments, a LLC in which we had an 80% non-controlling equity interest, sold the real property of Rio Rancho Medical Center, located in Gilbert, Arizona. Our share of the net proceeds from this divestiture was $1.1 million. This transaction resulted in a $252,000 gain which is included in Equity in income of unconsolidated LLCs on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
(5) Summarized Financial Information of Equity Affiliates
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our controlled investments and those investments that meet the criteria of a variable interest entity where we are the primary beneficiary. In accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 78-9 Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures as amended by FASB Staff Position SOP 78-9-1 Interaction of AICPA Statement of Position 78-9 and EITF Issue No. 04-5 and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 96-16, Investors Accounting for an Investee When the Investor Has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholder or Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto Rights, we account for our unconsolidated investments in LLCs which we do not control using the equity method of accounting. The third-party members in these investments have equal voting rights with regard to issues such as, but not limited to: (i) divestiture of property; (ii) annual budget approval, and; (iii) financing commitments. These investments, which represent 33% to 99% non-controlling ownership interests, are recorded initially at our cost and subsequently adjusted for our net equity in the net income, cash contributions to, and distributions from, the investments. Pursuant to certain agreements, allocations of profits and losses of some of the LLC investments may be allocated disproportionately as compared to ownership interests after specified preferred return rate thresholds have been satisfied.

Table of Contents
Pursuant to the provisions of FIN 46R, two LLCs in which we own non-controlling equity ownership interests of 95% and 98% are considered to be variable interest entities and are consolidated in our results of operations since we are the primary beneficiary. The other LLCs in which we hold various non-controlling ownership interests are not variable interest entities and therefore are not subject to the consolidation requirements of FIN 46R.
Rental income is recorded by our consolidated and unconsolidated MOBs relating to leases in excess of one year in length using the straight-line method under which contractual rents are recognized evenly over the lease term regardless of when payments are due. The amount of rental revenue resulting from straight-line rent adjustments is dependent on many factors, including the nature and amount of any rental concessions granted to new tenants, scheduled rent increases under existing leases, as well as the acquisition and sales of properties that have existing in-place leases with terms in excess of one year. As a result, the straight-line adjustments to rental revenue may vary from period-to-period. Pursuant to certain agreements, allocations of profits and losses of some of the LLC investments may be allocated disproportionately as compared to ownership interest after specified preferred return rate thresholds have been satisfied.
As of June 30, 2008, we had investments or commitments in twenty-seven LLCs, twenty-five of which are accounted for by the equity method and two that are consolidated.

(6) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities: In June 2008, FASB issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities. The FSP concludes that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities under FASB No. 128, Earnings Per Share and should be included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that we currently use to determine earnings per share for each class of common stock according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. We do not expect the adoption of this FSP effective January 1, 2009 will have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.
Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets: In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 142-3 (FSP 142-3), Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets. FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. FSP 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We do not currently expect the adoption of FSP 142-3 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles: In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (SFAS 162). SFAS 162 clarifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework to be followed in preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. We do not expect this standard to impact our consolidated financial statements.
Business Combinations: In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007) Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. SFAS 141R also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We do not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 141R will have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements: In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively. We do not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities: In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits a company to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. Most of the provisions in SFAS No. 159 are elective; however, it applies to all companies with available-for-sale and trading securities. A company will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the company does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option: (a) may be applied instrument by instrument; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs), and; (c) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of January 1, 2008. We chose not to elect the fair value option for our financial assets and financial liabilities existing at January 1, 2008, and did not elect the fair value option on financial assets and financial liabilities transacted subsequent to that time. Therefore, the adoption of SFAS No. 159 had no impact on our results of operations or financial position.

Table of Contents
Fair Value Measurements: In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The provisions for SFAS 157 are to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, except in limited circumstances including certain positions in financial instruments that trade in active markets as well as certain financial and hybrid financial instruments initially measured under SFAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133) using the transaction price method. In these circumstances, the transition adjustment is measured as the difference between the carrying amounts and the fair values of those financial instruments at the date SFAS No. 157 is initially applied. In February, 2008, the FASB decided to issue final staff positions that (i) partially deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for one year for certain non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, and; (ii) removed certain leasing transactions from the scope of SFAS No. 157. As permitted by FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, we elected to defer the adoption of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. The partial adoption of SFAS No. 157 for financial assets and financial liabilities did not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.
Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities: In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS No. 161). This statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entitys derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entitys financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS No. 133 as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and nonderivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities with instruments subject to SFAS No. 161 must provide expanded qualitative and quantitative disclosures. SFAS No. 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. Our adoption of this statement will not affect our results of operations.
(7) Segment Reporting
Our primary business is investing in and leasing healthcare and human service facilities through direct ownership or through joint ventures, which aggregate into a single reportable segment under SFAS 131. We actively manage our portfolio of healthcare and human service facilities and may from time to time make decisions to sell lower performing properties not meeting our long-term investment objectives. The proceeds of sales are typically reinvested in new developments or acquisitions, which we believe will meet our planned rate of return. It is our intent that all healthcare and human service facilities will be owned or developed for investment purposes. Our revenue and net income are generated from the operation of our investment portfolio.
Our portfolio is located throughout the United States, however, we do not distinguish or group our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or measuring performance. We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis, therefore we define an operating segment as our individual properties. Individual properties have been aggregated into one reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to both the nature and economics of the facilities, tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term average financial performance.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require us to make significant judgments and estimates when we prepare our financial statements, including the following:
Revenue Recognition: Our revenues consist primarily of rentals received from tenants, which are comprised of minimum rent (base rentals), bonus rentals and reimbursements from tenants for their pro-rata share of expenses such as common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and utilities.
The minimum rent for all hospital facilities is fixed over the initial term or renewal term of the respective leases. Rental income recorded by our consolidated and unconsolidated medical office buildings (MOBs ) relating to leases in excess of one year in length, is recognized using the straight-line method under which contractual rents are recognized evenly over the lease term regardless of when payments are due. The amount of rental revenue resulting from straight-line rent adjustments is dependent on many factors including the nature and amount of any rental concessions granted to new tenants, scheduled rent increases under existing leases, as well as the acquisitions and sales of properties that have existing in-place leases with terms in excess of one year. As a result, the straight-line adjustments to rental revenue may vary from period-to-period. Bonus rents are recognized when earned based upon increases in each facilitys net revenue in excess of stipulated amounts. Bonus rentals are determined and paid each quarter based upon a computation that compares the respective facilitys current quarters net revenue to the corresponding quarter in the base year. Tenant reimbursements for operating expenses are accrued as revenue in the same period the related expenses are incurred.
Real Estate Investments: We account for our property acquisitions under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141). Under SFAS No. 141, the purchase price of a property is allocated to the propertys land, buildings and intangible assets based upon our estimates of their fair values. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the buildings and capital improvements. The value of intangible assets is amortized as real estate amortization over the remaining lease term.

Investments in Limited Liability Companies (LLCs): Our consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of our controlled investments and those investments that meet the criteria of a variable interest entity where we are the primary beneficiary. In accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 78-9 Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures as amended by FASB Staff Position SOP 78-9-1 Interaction of AICPA Statement of Position 78-9 and EITF Issue No. 04-5, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (EITF) 96-16, Investors Accounting for an Investee When the Investor Has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholder or Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto Rights and EITF 04-5 Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights we account for our unconsolidated investments in LLCs which we do not control using the equity method of accounting. The third-party members in these investments have equal voting rights with regards to issues such as, but not limited to: (i) divestiture of property; (ii) annual budget approval, and; (iii) financing commitments. These investments, which represent 33% to 99% non-controlling ownership interests, are recorded initially at our cost and subsequently adjusted for our net equity in the net income, cash contributions to, and distributions from, the investments. Pursuant to certain agreements, allocations of profits and losses of some of the LLC investments may be allocated disproportionately as compared to ownership interests after specified preferred return rate thresholds have been satisfied.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. This Interpretation, as revised (FIN 46R), addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities as defined in the Interpretation. As a result of our related party relationship with UHS, and certain master lease, lease assurance or lease guarantee arrangements between UHS and various properties owned by two LLCs in which we own non-controlling ownership interests ranging from 95% to 98%, these two LLCs were considered to be variable interest entities and are therefore included in our consolidated financial statements on a consolidated basis since we are the primary beneficiary. One of these consolidated LLCs owns a medical office building which was completed and opened during the third quarter of 2008.
The other LLCs in which we hold various non-controlling ownership interests are not variable interest entities and therefore are not subject to the consolidation requirements of FIN 46R.
Federal Income Taxes: No provision has been made for federal income tax purposes since we qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and intend to continue to remain so qualified. As such, we are exempt from federal income taxes and we are required to distribute at least 90% of our real estate investment taxable income to our shareholders.
We are subject to a federal excise tax computed on a calendar year basis. The excise tax equals 4% of the amount by which 85% of our ordinary income plus 95% of any capital gain income for the calendar year exceeds cash distributions during the calendar year, as defined. No provision for excise tax has been reflected in the financial statements as no tax was due.
Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of dividends to shareholders, will differ from net income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal tax purposes in the cost basis of assets and in the estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation and the recording of provision for investment losses.
Relationship with Universal Health Services, Inc. (UHS) UHS is our principal tenant and through UHS of Delaware, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of UHS, serves as our advisor (the Advisor) under an Advisory Agreement dated December 24, 1986 between the Advisor and us (the Advisory Agreement). Our officers are all employees of UHS and although as of June 30, 2008 we had no salaried employees, our officers do receive stock-based compensation from time-to-time.
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is obligated to present an investment program to us, to use its best efforts to obtain investments suitable for such program (although it is not obligated to present any particular investment opportunity to us), to provide administrative services to us and to conduct our day-to-day affairs. In performing its services under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor may utilize independent professional services, including accounting, legal, tax and other services, for which the Advisor is reimbursed directly by us. The Advisory Agreement expires on December 31 of each year; however, it is renewable by us, subject to a determination by the Independent Trustees who are unaffiliated with UHS, that the Advisors performance has been satisfactory. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated for any reason upon sixty days written notice by us or the Advisor. The Advisory Agreement has been renewed for 2008. All transactions between us and UHS must be approved by the Independent Trustees. The Advisor is entitled to certain advisory fees for its services. See Relationship with Universal Health Services, Inc. in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Advisory Agreement and related fees.
The combined revenues generated from the leases on the UHS hospital facilities accounted for approximately 56% and 57% of our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and 57% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Including 100% of the revenues generated at the unconsolidated LLCs in which we have various non-controlling equity interests ranging from 33% to 99%, the leases on the UHS hospital facilities accounted for approximately 23% of the combined consolidated and unconsolidated revenue for each of the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and 22% and 23% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The leases to the hospital facilities of UHS are guaranteed by UHS and cross-defaulted with one another.

Results of Operations
For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, net income was $4.2 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, as compared to $8.0 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, during the comparable prior year quarter. The decrease in net income of $3.8 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, during the second quarter of 2008, as compared to the comparable quarter of 2007, was primarily attributable to:
| an unfavorable change of $2.3 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, resulting from the gain realized during the second quarter of 2007 on the sale of a medical office building (included in income from discontinued operations); |
| an unfavorable change of $939,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, resulting from the gain recognized during the second quarter of 2007 in connection with the previously disclosed Chalmette Medical Center (Chalmette) asset exchange and substitution transaction; |
| an unfavorable change of $187,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, resulting from increased depreciation expense: (i) recorded by certain of our unconsolidated LLCs in connection with newly constructed medical office buildings which were opened during the fourth quarter of 2007, and; (ii) resulting from the replacement assets received from UHS in connection with the Chalmette asset exchange and substitution transaction, and; |
| an unfavorable change of $329,000, or $.03 per diluted share, resulting from the recording of the following by two of our unconsolidated LLCs that own MOBs in Las Vegas, Nevada: (i) reserves established for certain tenant receivables in connection with leases which are in default resulting from the licensure revocation and closure of physician-owned gastroenterology and endoscopy clinics, and; (ii) higher than anticipated building maintenance and repairs expense. |
For the six month period ended June 30, 2008, net income was $8.3 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, as compared to $13.8 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, during the comparable six month period of 2007. The decrease in net income of $5.5 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, during the six month period of 2008, as compared to the comparable six month period of 2007, was primarily attributable to:
| an unfavorable change of $2.3 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, resulting from the gain realized during the six month period of 2007 on the sale of a medical office building (included in income from discontinued operations); |
| an unfavorable change of $1.7 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, resulting from the gain recognized during the six month period of 2007 in connection with the Chalmette asset exchange and substitution transaction; |
| an unfavorable change of $516,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, resulting from increased depreciation expense: (i) recorded by certain our unconsolidated LLCs in connection with newly constructed medical office buildings which were opened during the fourth quarter of 2007, and; (ii) resulting from the replacement assets received from UHS in connection with the Chalmette asset exchange and substitution transaction; |
| an unfavorable change of $329,000, or $.03 per diluted share, resulting from the recording of the tenant receivable reserves and maintenance expenses by two of our unconsolidated LLCs that own MOBs in Las Vegas, Nevada, as discussed above; |
| an unfavorable change of $252,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, resulting from the gain recorded during the six month period of 2007 in connection with the sale of real property by a LLC in which we had an 80% non-controlling equity interest, and; |
| other combined net unfavorable changes of $370,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, including the additional interest expense, as discussed below. |
Included in our other operating expenses are expenses related to the consolidated medical office buildings, which totaled $919,000 and $783,000 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $1.8 million and $1.6 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. A portion of the expenses associated with our consolidated medical office buildings is passed on directly to the tenants. Tenant reimbursements for operating expenses are accrued as revenue in the same period the related expenses are incurred and are included as tenant reimbursement revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
Interest expense, net of interest income, increased $84,000 and $242,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the comparable prior year periods, respectively, due primarily to an increase in our average outstanding borrowings, partially offset by a decrease in our average borrowing rate.
During the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we recorded equity in income of unconsolidated LLCs of $429,000 and $701,000, respectively. The $272,000 decrease during the three month period of 2008, as compared to the comparable 2007 period,
18
Table of Contents
was primarily due to $329,000 of reserves/expenses recorded by two of our unconsolidated LLCs that own MOBs in Las Vegas, Nevada, related to: (i) the reserves established for certain tenant receivables in connection with leases which are in default resulting from the licensure revocation and closure of physician-owned gastroenterology and endoscopy clinics, and; (ii) higher than anticipated building maintenance and repairs expense,
During the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we recorded equity in income of unconsolidated LLCs of $1.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The $607,000 decrease during the six month period of 2008, as compared to the comparable 2007 period, was primarily due to the $329,000 of reserves/expenses recorded by two LLCs during the second quarter of 2008, as mentioned above, and a gain of $252,000 realized during the six months ended June 30, 2007 on the sale of real property by a LLC.
Funds from operations (FFO), is a widely recognized measure of REIT performance. Although FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure, we believe that information regarding FFO is helpful to shareholders and potential investors. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than we interpret the definition. To facilitate a clear understanding of our historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income, determined in accordance with GAAP. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, FFO should not be used as: (i) an indication of our financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP; (ii) as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP; (iii) as a measure of our liquidity; (iv) nor is FFO an indicator of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to shareholders.
Below is a reconciliation of our reported net income to FFO for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $10.5 million and $11.4 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The $822,000 net decrease was attributable to:
| an unfavorable change of $869,000 due to a decrease in net income plus or minus the adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities (depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of property, gain on sale of property by a LLC and replacement property recovered from UHS-Chalmette); |
| an unfavorable change of $1.1 million in rent receivable primarily resulting from the timing of base rental payments by UHS; |
| a favorable change of $723,000 in accrued expenses and other liabilities resulting primarily from the exercise and settlement of accrued dividend rights by certain of our officers and a trustee during the second quarter of 2007; |
| a favorable change of $265,000 in tenant reserves, escrows, deposits and prepaid rents, and; |
| $125,000 of other net favorable changes. |
The $869,000 unfavorable change in net income plus or minus the adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to: (i) an increase of $242,000 in interest expense, resulting primarily from increased
19
Table of Contents
borrowings; (ii) a decrease of $355,000 in our equity in income of LLCs (excluding the gain on sale of real property by a LLC during the six months ended June 30, 2007) primarily due to increased depreciation and amortization expense recorded by certain unconsolidated LLCs resulting from newly constructed MOBs which were opened throughout 2007, as well as unanticipated building maintenance and repair expenditures combined with tenant receivable reserves recorded by two unconsolidated LLCs located in Las Vegas, Nevada, and; (iii) $272,000 of other unfavorable changes.
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities was ($11.4 million) during the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $7.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2008, we funded $1.7 million of equity investments, funded $1.6 million of advances to LLCs, spent $2.3 million on capital additions consisting primarily of construction costs related to a new MOB in Pamdale California, spent $4.7 million on the acquisition of real property and advanced $4.0 million to our third-party partners, as discussed below. Also during the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, we received: (i) $1.3 million related to debt refinancing by LLCs, and; (ii) $1.5 million of cash distributions in excess of income from our unconsolidated LLCs.
During the first six months of 2008, we advanced $4.0 million to our third-party partners in a certain LLC in connection with a $4.0 million loan agreement. This loan is a non-amortizing loan with interest paid on a quarterly basis. The interest rate on this loan will be: (i) 4.25% plus LIBOR, or; (ii) if information to determine LIBOR is not available, three hundred seventy-five basis points over the then existing borrowing cost. The loan has a stated maturity date of 2012, although it may be prepaid without penalty and is secured by various forms of collateral, including personal guarantees from each of the partners to the loan, as well as their ownership interest in the LLC.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2007, we funded $638,000 of equity investments, funded $15.5 million of advances to LLCs and spent $496,000 on capital additions to certain of our real estate investments. Also during the six month period ended June 30, 2007, we received: (i) $9.8 million from LLCs for repayments of advances; (ii) $7.3 million from the sale of real property; (iii) $5.5 million related to debt refinancing by LLCs; (iv) $1.1 million of cash proceeds related to the sale of real property by a LLC, and; (v) $536,000 of cash distributions in excess of income from our unconsolidated LLCs.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and ($18.8 million) during the six months ended June 30, 2007.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2008, we had additional net borrowings of $14.6 million on our revolving line of credit, borrowed $1.6 million and repaid $1.3 million under a construction loan of a consolidated LLC that is non-recourse to us, borrowed $347,000 and repaid of $282,000 from our third-party partner, paid $13.8 million of dividends, paid $195,000 on mortgage notes payable that are non-recourse to us and generated $216,000 of cash from the issuance of shares of beneficial interest.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2007, we had net debt repayments of $5.3 million on our revolving line of credit, paid $527,000 in financing fees related to our new revolving credit agreement, paid $13.5 million of dividends, paid $164,000 on mortgage notes payable that are non-recourse to us and generated $674,000 of net cash from the issuance of shares of beneficial interest.
A dividend of $0.58 per share was paid on March 31, 2008 to shareholders of record as of March 17, 2008, and a dividend of $0.585 per share was paid on June 30, 2008 to shareholders of record as of June 16, 2008.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through our available working capital and net cash provided by operations. We believe that our net cash provided by operations will be sufficient to allow us to make any distributions necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT under Section 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
Credit facilities and mortgage debt
In January 2007, we entered into an unsecured $100 million revolving credit agreement (the Agreement) which expires on January 19, 2012. We have a one-time option, which can be exercised at any time, subject to bank approval, to increase the amount by $50 million for a total commitment of $150 million. The Agreement provides for interest at our option, at the Eurodollar rate plus .75% to 1.125% or the prime rate plus zero to .125%. A fee of .15% to .225% is paid on the unused portion of the commitment. The margins over the Eurodollar rate, prime rate and the commitment fee are based upon our debt to total capital ratio as defined by the Agreement. As of June 30, 2008, the applicable margin over the Eurodollar rate was .75% and over the prime rate was zero. The commitment fee was 0.15%.

Table of Contents
At June 30, 2008, we had $31.4 million of outstanding borrowings and $24.2 million of letters of credit outstanding against the Agreement. There are no compensating balance requirements. The Agreement contains a provision whereby the commitments will be reduced by 50% of the proceeds generated from any new equity offering. At June 30, 2008, we had $44.4 million of available borrowing capacity under this agreement.
Covenants relating to the revolving credit facility require the maintenance of a minimum tangible net worth and specified financial ratios, limit our ability to incur additional debt, limit the aggregate amount of mortgage receivables and limit our ability to increase dividends in excess of 95% of cash available for distribution, unless additional distributions are required to comply with the applicable section of the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations governing real estate investment trusts. We are in compliance with all of the covenants at June 30, 2008. The carrying value of this instrument approximates fair value.
We have three mortgages and one construction loan, which are non-recourse to us, included in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2008 with a combined outstanding balance of $23.3 million. Two of the mortgages carry an interest rate of 8.3% and have maturity dates in 2010. The third mortgage carries an interest rate of 6.5% and has a maturity date in 2019. The construction loan carries an interest rate as of June 30, 2008, of LIBOR plus 2.6% or 5.2%. The mortgages are secured by the real property of the buildings as well as property leases and rents. The following table summarizes these outstanding loans at June 30, 2008 (amounts in thousands):
