CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
  
This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the operating performance of New Senior Investment Group Inc.’s (“New Senior,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) investments, the stability of our earnings, our financing needs, the impact of COVID-19 on our business and the proposed Merger (as defined below). These forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “endeavor,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” “would” or other similar words or expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state other forward-looking information. Our ability to predict results or the actual outcome of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:

risks and uncertainties associated with the ability of the Company and Ventas, Inc. (“Ventas”) to complete the Merger (as defined below) on the proposed terms or on the anticipated timeline, or at all;
failure of the combined company to realize the expected benefits of the Merger;
significant transaction costs and/or unknown or inestimable liabilities in connection with the Merger;
existing and potential litigation in connection with the Merger, including resulting expense or delay;
the risk that the Company’s business will not be integrated successfully in the combined company or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected;
risks related to future opportunities and plans for the combined company, including the uncertainty of financial performance and results of the combined company following completion of the Merger;
our ability and, following consummation of the Merger, the ability of the combined company, to qualify and maintain its qualification as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the potentially onerous consequences that any such failure to maintain such qualification would have on our or the combined company’s business;
disruption to the Company’s business from the Merger, including diversions to the attention of management and the restrictive covenants in the Merger Agreement, which may make it more difficult to conduct business as usual or maintain relationships with property managers, tenants, employees or other third parties;
effects relating to the announcement of the Merger or any further announcements related to the Merger or the consummation of the Merger on the market price of Company common stock or Ventas common stock;
the severity, duration and scope of the COVID-19 global pandemic, the effects of the pandemic and measures intended to prevent its spread on our and our tenant’s business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, including declines in occupancy and rental revenues and increases in operating expenses; constraints in our ability to access capital and other sources of funding, including due to fluctuations in the trading price of our common stock; increased risk of claims, litigation and regulatory proceedings; and the ability of federal, state and local governments to effectively respond to and manage the pandemic on an ongoing basis to prevent its continued spread;
our ability to comply with the terms of our financings, which depends in part on the performance of our property managers and triple net lease tenant;
any increase in our borrowing costs as a result of rising interest rates, the expected discontinuation of the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and the transition to any other interest rate benchmark, or other factors;
our ability to pay down, refinance, restructure or extend our indebtedness as it becomes due or as needed to comply with the terms of our covenants or to facilitate our ability to sell assets;
our ability to manage our liquidity and sustain distributions to our stockholders, particularly in light of the cash shortfall described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading “Risk Factors” and in this report under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources”;
our dependence on our property managers and tenant to operate our properties successfully and in compliance with the terms of our agreements with them, the terms of our financings and applicable law;
factors affecting the performance of our properties, such as a decline in occupancy and increases in operating costs (including, but not limited to, the costs of labor, supplies, insurance and property taxes);
concentration risk with respect to Holiday Retirement (“Holiday”), which, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, accounted for 82.4% of total net operating income (“NOI”);
risks associated with a change of control in the ownership or senior management of Holiday;
our ability and the ability of our property managers and tenant to obtain and maintain adequate property, liability and other insurance from reputable, financially stable providers;



changes of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to employment, fraud and abuse practices, Medicaid reimbursement and licensure, etc., including those affecting the healthcare industry that affect our costs of compliance or increase the costs, or otherwise affect the operations of our property managers or tenant;
the ability of our property managers and tenant to maintain the financial strength and liquidity necessary to satisfy their respective obligations and liabilities to us and third parties, particularly in light of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on their businesses;
the quality and size of our investment pipeline, our ability to execute investments at attractive risk-adjusted prices, our ability to finance our investments on favorable terms, and our ability to deploy investable cash in a timely manner;
our ability to sell properties on favorable terms and to realize the anticipated benefits from any such dispositions, including as a result of a reduction of commercial real estate value related to the COVID-19 pandemic;
changes in economic conditions generally and the real estate, senior housing, equity and bond markets specifically, including general economic uncertainty as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and a worsening of global economic conditions or low levels of economic growth;
our stock price performance and any disruption or lack of access to the capital markets or other sources of financing, including as a result of factors influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic;
the impact of any current or future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations and inquiries on us or our property managers; and
our reliance on our property managers for timely delivery of accurate property-level financial results.

The outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average basic shares outstanding exclude 227,462 and 454,921 restricted stock awards, net of forfeitures, as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, as those shares were issued but were not vested and therefore, not considered outstanding for purposes of computing basic EPS. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the additional dilutive effect, if any, of common stock equivalents during each period.
(B)Dilutive share equivalents and options were excluded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive given our loss position.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2021
(dollars in tables in thousands, except share data)

1.ORGANIZATION
 
New Senior Investment Group Inc. (“New Senior,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) primarily focused on investing in private pay senior housing properties. As of June 30, 2021, we owned a geographically diversified portfolio of 103 primarily private pay senior housing properties consisting of 102 independent living (“IL”) properties and one continuing care retirement community (“CCRC”), located across 36 states. We are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “SNR” and are headquartered in New York, New York.

We operate in one reportable segment: Senior Housing Properties.

Our 102 IL properties are managed by Holiday Retirement (“Holiday”), a company that is majority owned by private equity funds managed by an affiliate of FIG LLC (the “Former Manager”), a subsidiary of Fortress Investment Group LLC (“Fortress”), subsidiaries of Merrill Gardens LLC (“Merrill Gardens”), a former affiliate of our Former Manager, Grace Management, Inc. (“Grace”), and Atria Senior Living, Inc. (“Atria”), under Property Management Agreements (collectively, the “Property Management Agreements”). Under the Property Management Agreements, our property managers are responsible for the day-to-day operations of our senior housing properties and are entitled to a management fee in accordance with the terms of the Property Management Agreements. Our Property Management Agreements have initial terms of up to twenty years, with certain renewal options. We generally pay property management fees equal to a percentage of gross revenues, and in some cases, a portion of the management fee is derived from a measure of operating performance pursuant to our Property Management Agreements. Additionally, in some cases, the property managers are eligible to earn an incentive fee based on operating performance.

Our CCRC is leased to Watermark Retirement Communities, Inc. (“Watermark”), a healthcare operating company, under a triple net lease agreement. In a triple net lease arrangement, the lessee agrees to operate and maintain the property at its own expense, including maintenance, utilities, taxes, insurance, repairs, capital improvements and the payroll expense of property-level employees. Our triple net lease agreement has an initial term of 15 years and includes a renewal option and annual rent increases ranging from 2.75% to 3.25%.

We were formed as a Delaware limited liability company on May 17, 2012 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Drive Shack Inc., formerly Newcastle Investment Corp. (“Drive Shack”). On November 6, 2014, we were spun-off from Drive Shack and our shares of common stock were publicly listed on the NYSE.

On June 28, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ventas and Cadence Merger Sub LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ventas (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Ventas (the “Merger”). Under the Merger Agreement, the consideration to be paid by Ventas in the Merger consists of 0.1561 of a newly issued share of Ventas common stock, par value $0.25 per share, for each share of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than shares of our common stock owned directly by Ventas, Merger Sub or the Company), with holders of record of Company common stock receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares of Ventas common stock.. The Merger is expected to close during the second half of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by the Company’s stockholders. We cannot assure you that the Merger will be completed on the terms or timeline anticipated or at all. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we incurred costs of $4.0 million in connection with the Merger, which consist of services provided by our financial and legal advisors and other professional fees.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic

The COVID-19 global pandemic has caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economies and has contributed to volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. Our business and operating results for 2021 continue to be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, after several quarters of decreasing occupancy, ending occupancy in the second quarter of 2021 increased for the first time since the outset of the pandemic, growing 90 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2021. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we incurred $0.1 million and$1.4 million of COVID-19 related costs, respectively, and during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we incurred $0.4 million and $1.9 million of COVID-19 related costs, respectively. These amounts were recorded in “Property operating expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. These costs mainly consist of personal protective equipment (“PPE”) and other supplies such as packaging necessary for in-room meal deliveries to our residents and to a lesser extent testing kits for

residents and staff, temperature screening machines, additional cleaning equipment, or protocols related to the properties. As of June 30, 2021, all of our properties have provided access to the COVID-19 vaccine to residents and employees. Although we have seen improvement in certain recent operating trends, the ultimate extent and duration of its impact on the U.S. economy and our business remains unclear. The full extent to which the COVID-19 global pandemic will continue to directly or indirectly impact our business and operating results is highly uncertain and difficult to predict at this time. We have evaluated the impacts of COVID-19 global pandemic on our business operations thus far and will continue to update our assessment over time.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP’’) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Senior and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. We consolidate those entities in which we have control over significant operating, financial and investing decisions of the entity. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Significant Accounting Policies

Refer to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for other significant accounting policies.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU simplifies accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the general approach in ASC 740, Income Taxes, and clarifies certain aspects of the guidance for more consistent application. The simplifications relate to intraperiod tax allocations when there is a loss in continuing operations and a gain outside of continuing operations, accounting for tax law or tax rate changes and year-to-date losses in interim periods, recognition of deferred tax liability for outside basis difference when investment ownership changes, and accounting for franchise taxes that are partially based on income. Transition is generally prospective, other than the provision related to outside basis difference which is on a modified retrospective basis with the cumulative effect adjusted to retained earnings at the beginning of the period adopted, and franchise tax provision which is either full or modified retrospective. We adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021, and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference London Inter-Bank Rate (“LIBOR”) or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. Companies can adopt ASU 2020-04 anytime during the effective period of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We are currently assessing the provisions of ASU 2020-04 and have not made any hedge accounting elections as of June 30, 2021. If an election is made at a later date, we will apply the provisions of this guidance.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2021-01”). The amendments in ASU 2021-01 clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to

derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of the discontinuation of the use of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate due to reference rate reform. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

3.DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On February 10, 2020, we sold a portfolio of 28 assisted living/memory care (“AL/MC”) properties for a gross sale price of $385.0 million (the “AL/MC Portfolio Disposition”) to affiliates of ReNew REIT LLC. The portfolio represented a separate reportable segment at the time and the sale represented a strategic shift that would have a major effect on our operations and financial results. As a result, we classified the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the 28 AL/MC properties as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2020. There was no activity related to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to “Note 4 - Dispositions” for details.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the results of operations associated with discontinued operations are as follows:
Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
Revenues
Resident fees and services $ 14,024 
Total revenues 14,024 
Expenses
Property operating expenses 11,328 
Interest expense 1,361

4. DISPOSITIONS

2021 Activity

We did not have any dispositions during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

2020 Activity

On February 10, 2020, we completed the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition for a gross sale price of $385.0 million and recognized a gain on sale of $20.0 million, which is recorded in “Gain on sale of real estate” within “Discontinued operations, net” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020. In conjunction with the sale, we repaid $260.2 million of debt specifically attributable to the properties included in the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition and recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.6 million, comprised of $2.5 million in prepayment penalties and $1.1 million in the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs, which is included in “Loss from discontinued operations” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

5.SEGMENT REPORTING

Our primary business is investing in senior housing properties. We currently operate and report results in one reportable segment, Senior Housing Properties. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2020, we had two reportable segments (Managed IL Properties and Other Properties). Due to the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition which resulted in the sale of all but one of the assets in the Other Properties segment, we changed the composition of our reportable segments to be in line with the financial information reviewed and used by the chief operating decision maker to make operating decisions, assess performance, develop strategy and allocate capital resources. Accordingly, all prior period segment information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Amortization expense was $0.1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $0.2 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

We evaluate long-lived assets, primarily consisting of our real estate investments, for impairment indicators. In performing this evaluation, market conditions and our current intentions with respect to holding or disposing of the asset are considered. Where indicators of impairment are present, we evaluate whether the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than book value. Based on our assessment, no charges were necessary for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Impact of Texas Winter Storm

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized $0.3 million related to damage remediation and other incremental costs for 21 properties impacted by a significant winter storm in Texas in February 2021, which are included in “Other expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. No additional costs were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Total receivables and other assets $ 39,294  $ 34,892 
(A)Represents amounts held by lenders in tax, insurance, replacement reserve and other escrow accounts that are related to mortgage notes collateralized by our properties.

Straight-line Rent Receivable

Rental revenue from our triple net lease property is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term of the lease when collectability of substantially all rents is probable. Recognizing rental revenue on a straight-line basis typically results in recognizing revenue in excess of cash amounts contractually due from our tenant during the first half of the lease term, creating a straight-line rent receivable.

We assess the collectability of straight-line rent receivables on an ongoing basis. This assessment is based on several qualitative and quantitative factors, including and as appropriate, the payment history of the triple net lease tenant, the tenant’s ability to satisfy its lease obligations, the value of the underlying collateral or deposit, if any, and current economic conditions. If our evaluation of these factors indicates it is not probable that we will collect substantially all rents, any lease income is limited to the lesser of the lease income reflected on a straight-line basis or cash collected.

The following table sets forth future contracted minimum rents from the tenant of our triple net lease property, excluding contingent payment escalations, as of June 30, 2021:
2021 (six months) $ 3,060

The carrying value of the collateral relating to the floating rate and fixed rate debt was $1.2 billion and $0.5 billion, respectively, as of both June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020.

Mortgage Debt

In February 2020, in conjunction with the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition, we obtained mortgage financing in the aggregate amount of $270.0 million from KeyBank and assigned to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (the “2020 Freddie Financing”). The 2020 Freddie Financing is secured by 14 of our senior housing properties, matures on March 1, 2030, and bears interest at an adjustable rate, adjusted monthly, equal to the sum of the one month LIBOR index rate plus 2.12%. Concurrently on the same date, we used the funds from the 2020 Freddie Financing and proceeds from the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition to prepay an aggregate of $368.1 million of secured loans. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5.9 million, comprised of $4.5 million in prepayment penalties and $1.4 million in the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs, which is included in “Loss on extinguishment of debt” on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020. We incurred a total of $3.3 million in deferred financing costs, which have been capitalized and are being amortized over the life of the loan and the related amortization is included in “Interest expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2020, in connection with the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition, we also amended our secured revolving credit facility in the amount of $125.0 million (the “Revolver”), and extended its maturity from December 2021 to February 9, 2024. The amendment allows the Revolver to be increased with lender consent to a maximum aggregate amount of $500.0 million, of which (i) up to 10% may be used for the issuance of letters of credit, and (ii) up to 10% may be drawn by us in the form of swing loans. The Revolver bears an interest rate of, at our option, (i) the sum of LIBOR plus 2.0% or, in the case of a swing line loan, (ii) the greater of (a) the fluctuating annual rate of interest announced from time to time by KeyBank as its “prime rate,” plus 1.0% (b) 1.5% above the effective federal funds rate and (c) the sum of LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 2.0%. The Revolver is secured by nine of our senior housing properties and the pledge of the equity interests of certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2021, there were $3.5 million borrowings outstanding under the Revolver. We continue to pay a fee for unused amounts of the Revolver under certain circumstances, which were $0.1 million and not material for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These fees were included in “Interest expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Our debt agreements contain various customary financial and other covenants, in some cases including, but not limited to, debt service coverage ratios, lease coverage ratio, and project yield, as defined in the agreements. We are in compliance with the covenants in our debt agreements as of June 30, 2021.

9.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

Interest rate swap

In August 2020, we entered into a $270.0 million notional interest rate swap with a maturity of September 2025. In May 2019, we entered into a $350.0 million notional interest rate swap with a maturity of May 2022. Both swaps effectively convert LIBOR-based floating rate debt to fixed rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest-rate changes on future interest expense. These interest rate swaps were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges with the change in fair value included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness deferred as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”), and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our interest rate swap liability of $6.9 million and $11.7 million, respectively, was recorded in “Accrued expenses and other liabilities” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2021, our interest rate swap asset of $3.1 million was recorded in “Receivables and other assets, net” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We reclassified net losses of $2.2 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $4.2 million and $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020 from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings and included in “Interest expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, approximately $7.9 million of our interest rate swap liability and asset, which is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), is expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Interest rate caps

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our interest rate cap assets were recorded in “Receivables and other assets, net” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fair value losses recognized for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were not material. These amounts are included in “Other expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and “Other non-cash expense” in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

(C)Fair value based on a discounted cash flow valuation model. Significant inputs in the model include amounts and timing of expected future cash flows and market yields which are constructed based on inputs implied from similar debt offerings. Our mortgage debt is not measured at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

12.INCOME TAXES
 
New Senior is organized and conducts its operations to qualify as a REIT under the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). However, certain of our activities are conducted through our taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) and therefore are subject to federal and state income taxes at regular corporate tax rates.

The following table presents the provision (benefit) for income taxes (excluding discontinued operations):
  Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
  2021 2020 2021 2020
Current    
Federal $ —  $ —  $ —  $ — 
State and local 33  22  67  82

Federal —  —  —  — 
State and local —  —  —  — 
Total deferred provision —  —  —  — 
Total provision for income taxes $ 33  $ 22  $ 67  $ 82 

In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income by the TRS during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible before the net operating loss carryforward expires. Management believes that it is more likely than not that our net deferred tax assets will not be realized. As a result, we recorded valuation allowances against our deferred tax asset of $9.3 million and $7.6 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. However, the amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if (i) estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced or increased or (ii) objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present.

NEW SENIOR INVESTMENT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2021
(dollars in tables in thousands, except share data)
As of June 30, 2021, our TRS had a loss carryforward of approximately $30.6 million for federal income tax purposes and $37.2 million for state income tax purposes. These NOLs include activity from discontinued operations that remained with the Company. The federal net operating losses will begin to expire at the end of 2034. The net operating loss carryforward can generally be used to offset future taxable income, if and when it arises.

13.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Amended and Restated Stock Options and Incentive Award Plans

On January 1, 2019, our board of directors adopted an Amended and Restated Nonqualified Stock Option and Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”) providing for the grant of equity-based awards, including restricted stock awards (RSAs), restricted stock units (RSUs), stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance awards and other equity-based and non-equity based awards, in each case to our directors, officers, employees, service providers, consultants and advisors. Vesting periods for these awards generally range from one to three years. Options expire ten years from the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense totaled $2.3 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $4.4 million and $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In March 2021, the Former Manager exercised an aggregate of 1,422,248 options and were issued an aggregate of 784,123 shares of New Senior’s common stock in a cashless exercise.

14.REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK, EQUITY AND EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Redeemable Preferred Stock

On December 31, 2018, we issued 400,000 shares of our Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock, of which 200,000 shares are outstanding as of June 30, 2021, to the private equity firm that formerly externally managed us (the “Former Manager”). The Redeemable Preferred Stock are non-voting and have a $100 liquidation preference. Holders of the Redeemable Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends at a rate per annum of 6.00% on the liquidation preference amount plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends. The Redeemable Preferred Stock is subject to certain terms and conditions.

We may redeem, at any time, all but not less than all of the shares of Redeemable Preferred Stock for cash at a price equal to the liquidation preference amount of the Redeemable Preferred Stock plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon (the “Redemption Price”). On or after December 31, 2021, the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Redeemable Preferred Stock will have the right to require us to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding shares of Redeemable Preferred Stock, in each case, for cash at the Redemption Price. Due to the ability of the holders to require us to redeem the outstanding shares, the Redeemable Preferred Stock, which was initially recorded at a fair value of $40 million, is excluded from Equity and presented separately on the face of our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying value of the Redeemable Preferred Stock is increased by the accumulated and unpaid dividends, and reduced by redemptions and dividend payments. Accrued dividends are treated as deductions in the calculation of net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders.

The following table is a rollforward of our Redeemable Preferred Stock for the six months ended June 30, 2021:
Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 20,253 
Accrued dividend 595 
Paid dividend (598)
Balance as of June 30, 2021 $ 20,250 

Equity and Dividends

Return of Capital Adjustment

In January 2021, strike prices for outstanding options as of December 31, 2020 were reduced by $0.33 (the “2020 ROC Adjustment”), reflecting the portion of our 2020 dividends which were deemed return of capital pursuant to the terms of the

(dollars in tables in thousands, except share data)
Plan. In addition, 20,289 additional options were issued to the Former Manager, in order to maintain the intrinsic value of an option grant with a strike price below the 2020 ROC Adjustment.

At-the-Market Equity Program

On February 26, 2021, we established an at-the-market equity offering program through which we may issue and sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $100 million of our common stock. Sales of our common stock, if any, may be offered and sold in accordance with the Company’s instructions pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, dated February 26, 2021, between New Senior and a consortium of banks acting as sales agents.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we did not issue any shares under the Distribution Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we agreed that we would not issue equity securities, including under the ATM Program, subject to certain limited exceptions described in the Merger Agreement.


Earnings per Common Share

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the additional dilutive effect, if any, of common stock equivalents during each period. Our common stock equivalents are our outstanding stock options and equity-based compensation awards.

We have certain equity awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, which are considered participating securities for the purposes of computing EPS pursuant to the two-class method, and therefore we apply the two-class method in our computation of EPS. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology that determines EPS for common shares and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participating rights in undistributed earnings. During periods of loss, there is no allocation required under the two-class method since the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to fund losses.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, basic and diluted net income (loss) per share was computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
As of June 30, 2021, management believes there are no material contingencies that would affect our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
 
Certain Obligations, Liabilities and Litigation
 
We are and may become subject to various obligations, liabilities, investigations, inquiries and litigation assumed in connection with or arising from our on-going business, as well as acquisitions, sales, leasing and other activities. These obligations and liabilities (including the costs associated with investigations, inquiries and litigation) may be greater than expected or may not be known in advance. Any such obligations or liabilities could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows and results of operations, particularly if we are not entitled to indemnification, or if a responsible third party fails to indemnify us.

Litigation Relating to the Merger – On July 28, 2021, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a lawsuit against the Company and the members of its board of directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Wang v. New Senior Investment Group, Inc., et al. (Case No. 1:21-cv-6426). The plaintiff alleges that the defendants violated Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder, including by disclosing materially incomplete and misleading information concerning the Merger and related matters to the Company’s stockholders.

(dollars in tables in thousands, except share data)
The plaintiff seeks injunctive relief, rescissory and compensatory damages and an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses. We believe the claims asserted in the lawsuit are without merit.

Certain Tax-Related Covenants
 
If we are treated as a successor to Drive Shack under applicable U.S. federal income tax rules, and if Drive Shack failed to qualify as a REIT for a taxable year ending on or before December 31, 2015, we could be prohibited from electing to be a REIT. Accordingly, in the separation and distribution agreement regarding our spin-off from Drive Shack, Drive Shack (i) represented that it had no knowledge of any fact or circumstance that would cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT, (ii) covenanted to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with New Senior as necessary to enable us to qualify for taxation as a REIT and receive customary legal opinions concerning REIT status, including providing information and representations to us and our tax counsel with respect to the composition of Drive Shack’s income and assets, the composition of its stockholders and its operation as a REIT, and (iii) covenanted to use its reasonable best efforts to maintain its REIT status for each of Drive Shack’s taxable years ending on or before December 31, 2015 (unless Drive Shack obtains an opinion from a nationally recognized tax counsel or a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) to the effect that Drive Shack’s failure to maintain its REIT status will not cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT under the successor REIT rule referred to above). To date, Drive Shack has not informed us of any challenge to its REIT status for the applicable time period.

Proceedings Indemnified and Defended by Third Parties

From time to time, we are party to certain legal actions, regulatory investigations and claims for which third parties are contractually obligated to indemnify, defend and hold us harmless. While we are presently not being defended by any tenant and other obligated third parties in these types of matters, there is no assurance that our tenant, their affiliates or other obligated third parties will continue to defend us in these matters, or that such parties will have sufficient assets, income and access to financing to enable them to satisfy their defense and indemnification obligations to us.

In addition, although we and our property managers maintain insurance programs against certain risks, including commercial general liability, property, casualty and directors’ and officers’ liability, we cannot provide assurance that such policies will be sufficient to mitigate the financial impact of any individual or group of legal actions, regulatory investigations or claims.

Environmental Costs
 
As a commercial real estate owner, we are subject to potential environmental costs. As of June 30, 2021, management is not aware of any environmental concerns that would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Capital Improvement and Repair Commitments
 
We have agreed to make $1.0 million available for capital improvements during the 15 year lease period, which ends in 2030, to our triple net lease property under Watermark, none of which has been funded as of June 30, 2021. Upon funding these capital improvements, we will be entitled to a rent increase.

Leases

We currently lease our corporate office space located in New York, New York under an operating lease agreement. The lease requires fixed monthly rent payments, expires on June 30, 2024 and does not have any renewal option. We also currently lease equipment (e.g., dishwashers, copy machines and buses) used at certain of our managed properties under operating lease agreements. Our leases have remaining lease terms ranging from one month to 66.0 years. We do not include any renewal options in our lease terms for calculating our lease liability as of June 30, 2021, because we were not reasonably certain if we will exercise these renewal options at this time.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ significantly from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those included under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and under the heading “Risk Factors” herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
 
OVERVIEW
 
Our Business
 
We are a REIT with a portfolio of 103 senior housing properties located across the United States. We believe that we are the only REIT focused solely on senior housing and we are one of the largest owners of senior housing properties in the United States. We are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SNR” and are headquartered in New York, New York.

We are organized and operate as a single reportable segment, Senior Housing Properties. We changed our structure in the fourth quarter of 2020 and no longer operate in two reportable segments: Managed Independent Living (“IL”) Properties, and Other Properties. See our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Item 1 “Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our segments.

On June 28, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ventas and Cadence Merger Sub LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ventas (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Ventas (the “Merger”). Under the Merger Agreement, the consideration to be paid by Ventas in the Merger consists of 0.1561 of a newly issued share of Ventas common stock, par value $0.25 per share, for each share of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than shares of our common stock owned directly by Ventas, Merger Sub or the Company), with holders of record of Company common stock receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares of Ventas common stock. The Merger is expected to close during the second half of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by the Company’s stockholders. We cannot assure you that the Merger will be completed on the terms or timeline anticipated or at all.

COVID-19 & Considerations Related to Our Business

The COVID-19 global pandemic has caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economies and has contributed to volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The outbreak has led federal, state and local governments and public health authorities to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement and business operations such as travel bans, border closings, business closures, quarantines and shelter-in-place orders. Although some of these restrictions have been lifted or scaled back at this time, ongoing resurgences of COVID-19 infections may result in the re-imposition of certain restrictions and may lead to other restrictions being re-implemented to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
As an owner of senior living properties, with a portfolio of 102 IL properties and one continuing care retirement community (“CCRC”), COVID-19 has impacted our business in various ways. Our four property managers and one tenant all put into place various protocols to address the COVID-19 pandemic at our communities across the U.S. Some of the measures taken at the onset of the pandemic included restrictions on all non-essential visitors (including family), closure of group dining facilities and other common areas, restrictions on resident movements and group activities, as well as enhanced protocols which have required increased labor, property cleaning expenses and costs related to procuring necessary supplies such as meal containers and personal protective equipment (“PPE”). In mid-2020, our properties started to lift restrictions in a phased approach, based on both the status of state and local regulations that affect the property as well as the status of any COVID-19 cases at the property.

COVID-19 is having and will likely continue to have an impact on three metrics that are fundamental to our business: occupancy, rental rates and operating expenses.
21


Occupancy:
Following the COVID-19 outbreak, occupancy at our properties began to decrease materially as move-ins at those properties slowed due to the voluntary restrictions our property managers imposed on move-ins at our properties as discussed above. We do not know the ultimate impact that COVID-19 will have on our business, and whether it will fundamentally alter the demand for senior housing in general or in our properties in particular. Ending occupancy in the second quarter of 2021 increased for the first time since the outset of the pandemic, growing 90 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2021. The shape and length of the recovery in occupancy is difficult to predict and could be harmed by the incidence of COVID-19 at our properties or the perception that outbreaks could occur. The impact of COVID-19 may be mitigated by the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, but it remains unclear how vaccines will ultimately impact demand and occupancy over the longer term. As of the date of this filing, all of our properties have made COVID-19 vaccines available to residents and employees. However, although we have seen recent improvements, it is too early to determine how vaccination levels will ultimately influence demand and occupancy at our properties.

The senior housing industry offers a full continuum of care to seniors with product types that range from “mostly housing” (i.e., senior apartments) to “mostly healthcare” (i.e., skilled nursing, hospitals, etc.). We primarily focus on product types at the center of this continuum, namely IL properties. We believe that our focused portfolio of primarily IL properties will allow investors to participate in the positive fundamentals of the senior housing sector. However, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the “CDC”), older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions might be at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19. The CDC guidance also states that people age 65 and older and those living in nursing homes or long-term care facilities are at high-risk for severe illness from COVID-19. While we do not own nursing facilities, the age and other demographics of our residents fall within the CDC guidance. We do not know if or how this will affect seniors’ views on different types of senior living and whether it will alter demand for our types of senior living properties in the future.

Rental Rates:
Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily driven by rental revenues and fees received from residents of our managed properties, and we typically increase rental fees annually. Seniors, like much of the U.S. population, may be experiencing deteriorating financial conditions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may make it difficult for them to pay rent. In addition, there may be pressure for us to reduce rental rates or offer other concessions in light of the pandemic and its effects on our residents and our business.

Operating Expenses:
Throughout the pandemic, our property managers have incurred certain additional property level expenses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including the procurement of PPE and other supplies such as packaging necessary for in-room meal deliveries to residents. These expenses have been largely offset by variable expense savings associated with lower occupancy and strong expense management from our property managers. In the second quarter of 2021, these costs have continued but declined for the fourth consecutive quarter. Depending on how the pandemic continues to evolve, there may be other future operating expenses that we may be required to bear or need to continue to bear, such as costs for testing kits for residents and staff, additional cleaning equipment, or new protocols related to the properties.

Given the evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, all of the observations and forward-looking statements above represent our current good faith views based upon the information that we have available to us at this time. We believe that the extent of the pandemic’s effect on our business, operational and financial performance and liquidity will depend upon many factors and future developments, including the duration, spread, intensity and recurrence of the pandemic, health and safety actions taken to contain its spread, the availability, continuing efficacy and public usage and acceptance of vaccines, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume within the markets in which we operate, each of which is highly uncertain and difficult to predict at this time. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business and financial results as a result of its global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that may occur in the future. See also Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and below “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” for additional discussions regarding COVID-19 and its impact on our business.

Other Recent Developments

Property Transition to Atria Senior Living (“Atria”)

In April 2021, we transitioned the management of 21 properties from Holiday to Atria.

22


Property Transitions to Hawthorn Senior Living (“Hawthorn”) and Grace Management, Inc. (“Grace”)

In July 2021, we transitioned the management of 10 properties from Holiday to Hawthorn, and two properties from Holiday to Grace.

During transition periods, we expect to incur integration costs and may experience a temporary disruption in operations, which can adversely impact our results of operations.

At-The-Market Common Stock Offering Program

On February 26, 2021, we established an at-the-market equity offering program (the “ATM Program”) through which we may issue and sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $100 million of our common stock. Sales of common stock, if any, may be offered and sold in accordance with the Company’s instructions pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, dated February 26, 2021, between New Senior and a consortium of banks acting as sales agents.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we did not issue any shares under the Distribution Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we agreed that we would not issue equity securities, including under the ATM Program, subject to certain limited exceptions described in the Merger Agreement.

MARKET CONSIDERATIONS

Senior housing is a $300 billion market, and ownership of senior housing assets is highly fragmented. Given these industry fundamentals and compelling demographics that are expected to drive increased demand for senior housing, we believe the senior housing industry presents an attractive investment opportunity. However, increased competition from other buyers of senior housing assets, the impact of COVID-19 on the senior housing industry, increasing construction costs, as well as liquidity constraints and other factors, could impair our ability to source attractive investment opportunities within the senior housing industry and thus to seek investments in the broader healthcare industry.

According to data from the National Investment Center for Seniors Housing and Care (“NIC”) on the 99 Primary and Secondary Markets, occupancy in the second quarter of 2021 declined 550 basis points year-over-year, and increased 30 basis points quarter-over-quarter – the first sequential increase since before the COVID-19 pandemic. New Senior’s occupancy results performed in line with the industry in the second quarter, with same store managed occupancy down 550 basis points year-over-year. Industry occupancy for majority IL facilities was down 500 basis points year-over-year, while industry occupancy for majority AL facilities was down 620 basis points year-over-year.

Industry-wide, new supply levels have continued to trend lower for the past several years. Units under construction represent 4.7% of inventory, and that ratio has decreased 270 basis points from the recent high in the third quarter of 2018. The ratio of IL construction to inventory (4.8%) is slightly higher than the ratio for AL (4.7%).

While supply trends have improved recently, rate growth has continued to decelerate over the past several quarters. Industry rate growth was 1.4% in the second quarter of 2021, down 200 bps from the recent high of 3.4% in the first quarter of 2019. Rate growth for IL facilities (1.4%) was in line with rate growth for AL facilities.

The value of our existing portfolio could be impacted by new construction, as well as increased availability and popularity of home health care or other alternatives to senior housing, by hampering occupancy and rate growth. In addition, operating expenses could be driven higher by supply and labor shortages, as well as other factors.

Additionally, as discussed in more detail above, the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to impact our business in 2021. The timing of a recovery is difficult to predict, and could be harmed by the incidence of COVID-19 at our properties or the perception that outbreaks could occur. In recent months, we have seen fewer active cases, and increased inquiry and tour volume across our communities, which may be due to the prevalence of vaccination clinics at our communities and high levels of uptake by residents and associates, or may be the result of declining positivity rates in the particular communities in which we operate, or may be due to other factors.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Segment Overview
 
Our primary business is investing in senior housing properties. We currently operate and report results in one reportable segment, Senior Housing Properties. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2020, we had two reportable segments (Managed IL Properties and Other Properties). Due to the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition which resulted in the sale of all but one of the assets in the Other Properties segment, we changed the composition of our reportable segments to be in line with the financial information reviewed and used by the chief operating decision maker to make operating decisions, assess performance, develop strategy and allocate capital resources. Accordingly, all prior period segment information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Net Operating Income

Net operating income (“NOI”) and Cash NOI are financial measures not determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) that we use to evaluate the performance of our properties. We consider NOI and Cash NOI important supplemental measures used to evaluate the operating performance of our properties because they allow investors, analysts and our management to assess our unleveraged property-level operating results and to compare our operating results between periods and to the operating results of other real estate companies on a consistent basis. We define NOI as total revenues less property level operating expenses, which include property management fees and travel cost reimbursements. We define Cash NOI as NOI excluding the effects of straight-line rental revenue, amortization of above/ below market lease intangibles and the amortization of deferred community fees and other, which includes the net change in deferred community fees and other rent discounts or incentives.

Our Senior Housing Properties segment is primarily comprised of independent living senior housing properties that are operated by property managers to which we pay a management fee. We also own one CCRC leased on a long-term basis, and our tenant is typically responsible for bearing property-related expenses including maintenance, utilities, taxes, insurance, repairs, capital improvements and the payroll expense of property-level employees. Depreciation and amortization, interest expense, acquisition, transaction and integration expense, termination fee, management fees and incentive compensation to affiliate, general and administrative expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, impairment of real estate, other expense (income), gain (loss) on sale of real estate, gain on lease termination, litigation proceeds, net, income tax expense (benefit) and discontinued operations, net are not allocated to individual segments for purposes of assessing property performance. In deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance, our chief operating decision maker regularly evaluates the performance of our reportable segment on the basis of NOI and Cash NOI.

Same Store

Same store information is intended to enable management to evaluate the performance of a consistent portfolio of real estate in a manner that eliminates variances attributable to changes in the composition of our portfolio over time, due to sales and various other factors. Properties acquired, sold, transitioned to other property managers, or classified as held for sale or discontinued operations during the comparable periods are excluded from the same store amounts.

Resident fees and services
 
Total portfolio resident fees and services decreased $5.4 million. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in occupancy.

Same store portfolio resident fees and services decreased $3.6 million. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in occupancy.

Rental revenue

Rental revenue relates to rents from our triple net lease property. Same store and total rental revenue remained unchanged for the comparative periods. As a percentage of rental revenue, NOI was 100% of revenue for each fiscal year as the lessee operates the property and bears the related costs, including maintenance, utilities, taxes, insurance, repairs, capital improvements and the payroll expense of property-level employees.
Property operating expense
 
Total portfolio property operating expense increased $0.9 million. This increase is primarily due to higher marketing and labor-related costs, which were partially offset by lower costs incurred in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Same store portfolio property operating expense increased $1.0 million. This increase is primarily due to higher marketing and labor-related costs, which were partially offset by lower costs incurred in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
NOI

Total portfolio NOI decreased $6.4 million. See above for the variance explanations.
 
Same store portfolio NOI decreased $4.7 million. See above for the variance explanations.

Cash NOI

Total portfolio Cash NOI decreased $5.9 million. This is primarily due to lower NOI and more rent incentives given to residents. See above for the NOI variance explanations.

Same store portfolio Cash NOI decreased $4.2 million. This is primarily due to lower NOI and more rent incentives given to residents. See above for the NOI variance explanations.

Expenses

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization decreased $1.2 million primarily due to certain furniture, fixtures, and equipment becoming fully depreciated as of June 30, 2020.

Interest expense
 
Interest expense decreased $0.9 million primarily due to a lower average debt balance as a result of debt repayments and a decrease in LIBOR for the comparative periods. The weighted average effective interest rates for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were 3.79% and 3.81%, respectively.

General and administrative expense
 
General and administrative expense increased $0.7 million primarily due to additional compensation expense, including the amortization of equity-based compensation granted to officers and employees after June 30, 2020.
26



Acquisition, transaction and integration expense
 
Acquisition, transaction and integration expense increased $5.6 million primarily due to $4.0 million of costs associated with the Merger with Ventas during the three months ended June 30, 2021. See “Part I, Item 1. Note 1 - Organization” of our consolidated financial statements for more information.

Other expense

Other expense decreased by $0.2 million. This is primarily due to lower casualty related charges in the second quarter of 2021.

Income tax expense

We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under the requirements of the Code. However, certain of our activities are conducted through our TRS and therefore are subject to federal and state income taxes. Income tax expense was relatively unchanged during the comparative periods.

(A) Relates to the Cash NOI of 21 assets that were managed under Holiday and transitioned to Atria in April 2021.

Resident fees and services

Total portfolio resident fees and services decreased $12.3 million. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in occupancy, partially offset by an increase in average rental rates.

Same store portfolio resident fees and services decreased $8.6 million. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in occupancy, partially offset by an increase in average rental rates.

Rental revenue

Rental revenue relates to rents from our triple net lease property. Same store and total rental revenue remained unchanged for the comparative periods. As a percentage of rental revenue, NOI was 100% of revenue for each fiscal year as the lessee operates the property and bears the related costs, including maintenance, utilities, taxes, insurance, repairs, capital improvements and the payroll expense of property-level employees.

Property operating expense

Total portfolio property operating expense decreased $0.7 million. This decrease is primarily due to lower management fees and costs incurred in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by higher marketing fees, insurance premiums and uninsured casualty losses.

Same store portfolio property operating expense was relatively flat for the comparative periods. This is primarily due to lower management fees and costs incurred in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by higher marketing fees, insurance premiums and uninsured casualty losses.

NOI

Total portfolio NOI decreased $11.7 million. See above for the variance explanation.

Same store portfolio NOI decreased $8.7 million. See above for the variance explanations.

Cash NOI

Total portfolio Cash NOI decreased $11.5 million. This is primarily due to lower NOI. See above for the NOI variance explanation.

28


Same store portfolio Cash NOI decreased $8.5 million. This is primarily due to lower NOI. See above for the NOI variance explanation.

Expenses

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization decreased $2.8 million primarily due to certain furniture, fixtures, and equipment becoming fully depreciated as of June 30, 2020.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $3.8 million primarily due to a lower average debt balance in conjunction with lower effective interest rates as a result of debt repayments in conjunction with the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition, lower interest rate on the newly refinanced debt and a decrease in LIBOR for the comparative periods. The weighted average effective interest rates for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were 3.79% and 4.12%, respectively.

General and administrative expense
 
General and administrative expense increased $1.1 million primarily due to additional compensation expense, including the amortization of equity-based compensation granted to officers and employees after June 30, 2020.

Acquisition, transaction and integration expense
 
Acquisition, transaction and integration expense increased $5.8 million primarily due to $4.0 million of costs associated with the Merger with Ventas during the six months ended June 30, 2021. See “Part I, Item 1. Note 1 - Organization” of our consolidated financial statements for more information.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

Loss on extinguishment of debt decreased $5.9 million primarily due to $4.5 million of prepayment penalties and a $1.4 million write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees related to debt paid off in conjunction with the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition in February 2020.

Other expense

Other expense increased $0.5 million. This is primarily due to damage remediation costs relating to a significant winter storm in Texas in February 2021 and higher casualty related charges.

Income tax expense

We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under the requirements of the Code. However, certain of our activities are conducted through our TRS and therefore are subject to federal and state income taxes. Income tax expense was relatively unchanged during the comparative periods.

Discontinued operations, net

In February 2020, we completed the sale of the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition which resulted in a gain on sale of real estate of $20.0 million. This gain was partially offset by a loss from discontinued operations of $16.9 million which reflects the operations of the properties sold.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
Our principal liquidity needs are to (i) fund operating expenses, (ii) meet debt service requirements, (iii) fund recurring capital expenditures and investment activities, if applicable, and (iv) make distributions to stockholders. As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $23.2 million in liquidity, consisting of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. A portion of this amount is held in operating accounts used to fund expenses at our managed properties and, therefore, may not be available for distribution to stockholders.

29


On February 26, 2021, we established an at-the-market equity offering program (the “ATM Program”) through which we may issue and sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $100 million of our common stock. Sales of the common stock, if any, may be offered and sold in accordance with the Company’s instructions pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, dated February 26, 2021, between New Senior and a consortium of banks acting as sales agents.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we did not issue any shares under the Distribution Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we agreed that we would not issue equity securities, including under the ATM Program, subject to certain limited exceptions described in the Merger Agreement.

On July 13, 2021, we redeemed all 200,000 shares of our outstanding Series A Preferred Stock at the liquidation preference of $100 per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends up to, but excluding, the redemption date. In total, we paid $20.3 million for the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock using proceeds from drawing down on our Revolver.

Our principal sources of liquidity are (i) cash flows from operating activities, (ii) proceeds from financing in the form of debt, and, from time to time, (iii) proceeds from dispositions of assets. Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily driven by (i) resident fees and services received from residents of our managed properties and (ii) rental revenues from the tenant of our triple net lease property, less (iii) operating expenses (primarily property operating expense of our managed properties, general and administrative expenses, professional fees, insurance and taxes) and (iv) interest payments on our debt. Our principal uses of liquidity are the expenses included in cash flows from operating activities, plus capital expenditures, principal payments on debt, and distributions to our stockholders.

We anticipate that our cash on hand, our cash flows provided by operating activities, and cash available to be drawn down from the Revolver will be sufficient to fund our business operations, recurring capital expenditures, principal payments, and the distributions we are required to make to comply with REIT requirements over the next 12 months. Our actual distributions to stockholders have historically been higher than the REIT distribution requirement. The Revolver is an important source of liquidity for us. Our balance drawn under the Revolver fluctuates over time and was $3.5 million as of June 30, 2021.

Our cash flows from operating activities, less capital expenditures and principal payments, have historically been less than the amount of distributions to our stockholders. We have in the past funded the shortfall using cash on hand. In light of the impacts of COVID-19, the board of directors reduced our quarterly cash dividend on shares of our common stock for the first quarter of 2020 by 50% to $0.065 per share. The board of directors maintained the same dividend level for the remainder of 2020 and the first half of 2021. The board of directors believed that the dividend reduction in 2020 is the most prudent course of action and it continues to monitor our financial performance and liquidity. The board of directors will continue to re-evaluate the level of future dividends; however, pursuant to the Merger Agreement the board may not declare or pay a quarterly dividend in excess of $0.065 per share without the consent of Ventas. As required by the Merger Agreement relating to the pending Merger with Ventas, the Company and Ventas agreed to synchronize the record and payment dates for their dividends to October 1, 2021 and October 14, 2021, respectively, which are the dates typically used by Ventas. The Company’s dividend for the second quarter of 2021 is expected to remain at $0.065 per share, subject to the approval of our board of directors. There can be no assurance that we will pay cash dividends in an amount consistent with prior quarters. Any difference between the amount of any future dividend and the amount of dividends in prior quarters could be material, and there can be no assurance that our board of directors will declare any dividend at all.

The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic has also affected our liquidity in other ways. As discussed above in “Overview - COVID-19 & Considerations Related to Our Business,” if further decreases in occupancy in our properties occur, it will result in a reduction in our revenues and our cash flows. Over time, if financial results at the properties which secure the Revolver underperform, our availability to borrow funds under the Revolver could be limited. In addition, if rental revenues and fees received from residents of our managed properties decline as a result of financial or other difficulties in residents making rent payments to us, it would have a significant effect on our cash flows from operating activities.

The expectations set forth above are forward-looking and subject to a number of uncertainties and assumptions, which are described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC under “Factors That Could Impact Our Liquidity, Capital Resources and Capital Obligations” and “Risk Factors,” as well as below in “Risk Factors.” If our expectations about our liquidity prove to be incorrect, we could be subject to a shortfall in liquidity in the future, and this shortfall may occur rapidly and with little or no notice, which would limit our ability to address the shortfall on a timely basis.

30


Other Factors That Could Impact Our Liquidity, Capital Resources and Capital Obligations
 
The following factors could impact our liquidity, capital resources and capital obligations:

Access to Financing: Decisions by investors, counterparties and lenders to enter into transactions with us will depend upon a number of factors, such as our historical and projected financial performance, compliance with covenant terms, industry and market trends, the availability of capital and our investors’, counterparties’ and lenders’ policies and rates applicable thereto and the relative attractiveness of alternative investment or lending opportunities.

Impact of Expected Additional Borrowings or Sales of Assets on Cash Flows: The availability and timing of and proceeds from additional borrowings or refinancing of existing debt may be different than expected or may not occur as expected. The timing of any sale of assets, and the proceeds from any such sales, are unpredictable and may vary materially from an asset’s estimated fair value and carrying value.

Compliance with Debt Obligations: Our financings subject us and our property managers to a number of obligations, and a failure to satisfy certain obligations, including (without limitation) a failure by the guarantors of our leases to satisfy certain financial covenants that depend in part on the performance of our leased assets, which is outside of our control, could give rise to a requirement to prepay outstanding debt or result in an event of default and the acceleration of the maturity date for repayment. We may also seek amendments to these debt covenants, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such amendment on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

As noted elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the Company’s liquidity in various ways, including among other things, by further impairing our ability to access the capital markets, by reducing our revenues due to decreased occupancy at our properties and reduced asset values, which over time may limit the borrowing availability under the Revolver.

Debt Obligations

Our debt agreements contain various customary financial and other covenants, in some cases including, but not limited to, debt service coverage ratios, lease coverage ratio, and project yield, as defined in the agreements. We are in compliance with the covenants in our debt agreements as of June 30, 2021.

Capital Expenditures

We anticipate that capital expenditures will be funded through operating cash flows from our senior housing properties. Capital expenditures, net of insurance proceeds for the managed properties were $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. As landlord, we did not incur any capital expenditures for the CCRC leased to the tenant for the six months ended June 30, 2021. After the onset of the pandemic in March 2020, we temporarily halted all elective capital expenditure projects and limited projects to those deemed essential. In summer 2020, we resumed elective capital expenditure projects that could be completed safely.

With respect to our CCRC under a triple net lease arrangement, the terms of this arrangement require the tenant to fund all necessary capital expenditures in order to maintain and improve the applicable property. To the extent that our tenant is unwilling or unable to fund these capital expenditure obligations under the existing lease arrangement, we may fund capital expenditures with additional borrowings or cash flow from the operations of the senior housing properties. We may also provide corresponding loans or advances to our tenant which would increase the rent payable to us. For further information regarding capital expenditures related to our triple net lease property, see “Contractual Obligations” below and “Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flows
 
The following table provides a summary of our cash flows:
Six Months Ended June 30, Increase (Decrease)
(dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 Amount
Net cash provided by (used in)
Operating activities
$ 15,270  $ 14,633  $ 637 
Investing activities
(7,650) 369,879  (377,529)
Financing activities
(19,589) (329,223) 309,634 
Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash (11,969) 55,289  (67,258)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period 53,795  63,829  (10,034)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period $ 41,826  $ 119,118  $ (77,292)

Operating activities
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $15.3 million and $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The period-over-period increase of $0.6 million was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense as a result of lower average debt balance in conjunction with lower effective interest rates as a result of debt repayments in conjunction with the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition, lower interest rate on the newly refinanced debt and a decrease in LIBOR for the comparative periods.

Investing activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $7.7 million and net cash provided by investing activities was $369.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The period-over-period decrease of $377.5 million was due to net proceeds received in February 2020 from the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition of $375.0 million.
 
Financing activities
 
Net cash used in financing activities was $19.6 million and $329.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The period-over-period increase of $309.6 million was primarily due to repayments of debt in conjunction with the AL/MC Portfolio Disposition, debt refinancings of $576.1 million offset by proceeds from the 2020 Freddie Financing of $270.0 million.

REIT Compliance Requirements
 
We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that a REIT distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gains. We intend to pay dividends greater than all of our REIT taxable income to holders of our common stock in 2021, if, and to the extent, authorized by our board of directors. We note that a portion of this requirement may be able to be met in future years with partial stock dividends, rather than cash distributions, subject to limitations. We expect that our operating cash flows will exceed REIT taxable income due to depreciation and other non-cash deductions in computing REIT taxable income. However, before we pay any dividend, whether for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise, we must first meet both our operating requirements and debt service on our obligations. If we do not have sufficient liquid assets to enable us to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, or if we decide to retain cash, we may sell assets, or borrow funds to make cash distributions, or we may make a portion of the required distribution in the form of a taxable stock distribution or distribution of debt securities.

Income Tax
 
We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under the requirements of the Code. Currently, certain of our activities are conducted through our TRS and therefore are subject to federal and state income taxes at regular corporate tax rates.

32


OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
As of June 30, 2021, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured investment vehicles, special purpose or variable interest entities established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements. Further, we have not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities or entered into any commitment or intend to provide additional funding to any such entities.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

As of June 30, 2021, we had the following material contractual obligations, including estimates of interest payments on our floating rate debt (dollars in thousands):

(A)Estimated principal, balloon, and interest payments on floating rate debt are calculated using LIBOR rates in effect at June 30, 2021 and may not be indicative of actual payments. Actual payments may vary significantly due to LIBOR fluctuations. See “Note 8 – Debt, Net” to the consolidated financial statements for further information about interest rates.
(B)Includes $0.3 million paid in July 2021 for dividends accrued up to, but excluding, the redemption date on the Series A redeemable preferred stock.
(C)Total obligations include an estimate of interest payments on floating rate debt, see Note A above.
(D)The Company has two 1-year extension options to defer the balloon payment; the second extension requires the payment of a nominal extension fee.

In addition to our contractual obligations, we are a party to property management agreements with property managers. See “Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements for information related to our capital improvement and repair commitments.
 
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
 
A non-GAAP financial measure is a measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are not excluded from or included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We consider certain non-GAAP financial measures to be useful supplemental measures of our operating performance for management and investors. GAAP accounting for real estate assets assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, even though real estate values historically have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, many industry investors look to non-GAAP financial measures for supplemental information about real estate companies.

You should not consider non-GAAP measures as alternatives to GAAP net (loss) income, which is an indicator of our financial performance, or as alternatives to GAAP cash flow from operating activities, which is a liquidity measure. Additionally, non-GAAP measures are not intended to be a measure of our ability to satisfy our debt and other cash requirements. In order to facilitate a clear understanding of our consolidated historical operating results, you should examine our non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP net (loss) income, cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, as presented in our consolidated financial statements, and other financial data included elsewhere in this report. Moreover, the comparability of non-GAAP financial measures across companies may be limited as a result of differences in the manner in which real estate companies calculate such measures.

Below is a description of the non-GAAP financial measures used by our management and reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

33


Funds From Operations, Normalized Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

We use Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Normalized FFO as supplemental measures of our operating performance. We use the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of FFO. NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, which includes loss from discontinued operations, excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciable real estate assets and impairment charges of depreciable real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and joint ventures to reflect FFO on the same basis. FFO does not account for debt principal payments and is not intended as a measure of a REIT’s ability to satisfy such payments or any other cash requirements.

Normalized FFO, as defined below, measures the financial performance of our portfolio of assets excluding items that, although incidental to, are not reflective of the day-to-day operating performance of our portfolio of assets. We believe that Normalized FFO is useful because it facilitates the evaluation of our portfolio’s operating performance (i) between periods on a consistent basis and (ii) to the operating performance of other real estate companies. However, comparability may be limited because our calculation of Normalized FFO may differ significantly from that of other companies or because of features of our business that are not present in other companies.

We define Normalized FFO as FFO excluding the following income and expense items, as applicable: (a) acquisition, transaction and integration related expenses; (b) the write off of unamortized discounts, premiums, deferred financing costs, or additional costs, make whole payments and penalties or premiums incurred as the result of early repayment of debt (collectively “Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt”); (c) incentive compensation to affiliate recognized as a result of sales of real estate; (d) the remeasurement of deferred tax assets; (e) valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, net; (f) termination fee to affiliate; (g) gain on lease termination; (h) compensation expense related to transition awards; (i) litigation proceeds; and (j) other items that we believe are not indicative of operating performance, generally reported as “Other expense (income)” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We also use Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) as a supplemental measure of our operating performance. We believe AFFO is useful because it facilitates the evaluation of (i) the current economic return on our portfolio of assets between periods on a consistent basis and (ii) our portfolio versus those of other real estate companies that report AFFO. However, comparability may be limited because our calculation of AFFO may differ significantly from that of other companies, or because of features of our business that are not present in other companies.

We define AFFO as Normalized FFO excluding the impact of the following: (a) straight-line rental revenue; (b) amortization of above / below market lease intangibles; (c) amortization of deferred financing costs; (d) amortization of premium or discount on mortgage notes payable; (e) amortization of deferred community fees and other, which includes the net change in deferred community fees and other rent discounts or incentives; and (f) amortization of equity-based compensation expense.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to FFO, Normalized FFO and Adjusted FFO; adjustments below include amounts related to properties classified as discontinued operations:

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) facilitates an assessment of the operating performance of our existing portfolio of assets on an unleveraged basis by eliminating the impact of our capital structure and tax position. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, which includes loss from discontinued operations, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (including non-cash equity-based compensation expense), excluding deemed dividends on redeemable preferred stock, gain or loss on sale of real estate, impairment of real estate held for sale, acquisition, transaction and integration expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, compensation expense related to transition awards, incentive compensation on sale of real estate, termination fee to affiliate, gain on lease termination, litigation proceeds, and other expense.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to Adjusted EBITDA; adjustments below include amounts related to properties classified as discontinued operations:

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our historical financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that could affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Our estimates are based on information available to management at the time of preparation of the financial statements, including the result of historical analysis, our understanding and experience of our operations, our knowledge of the industry and market-participant data available to us.

Actual results have historically been in line with management’s estimates and judgments used in applying each of the accounting policies described below, and management periodically re-evaluates accounting estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from these estimates and materially impact our consolidated financial statements. However, we do not expect our assessments and assumptions below to materially change in the future.

Other than critical accounting policies mentioned in “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our consolidated financial statements, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, credit spreads, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are interest rate risk and credit risk. These risks are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond our control. All of our market risk sensitive assets and liabilities are for non-trading purposes only. In addition, we are exposed to liquidity risk.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates on borrowings under our mortgage loans that are floating rate obligations. These market risks result primarily from changes in LIBOR or prime rates. We continuously monitor our level of floating rate debt with respect to our total debt and other factors, including our assessment of current and future economic conditions.

For fixed rate debt, interest rate fluctuations generally affect the fair value, but do not impact our earnings or cash flows. Therefore, interest rate risk does not have a significant impact on our fixed rate debt obligations until such obligations mature or until we elect to prepay and refinance such obligations. If interest rates have risen at the time our fixed rate debt matures or is refinanced, our future earnings and cash flows could be adversely affected by additional borrowing costs. Conversely, lower interest rates at the time of maturity or refinancing may lower our overall borrowing costs.

For floating rate debt, interest rate fluctuations can affect the fair value, as well as earnings and cash flows. Generally, if market interest rates rise, our earnings and cash flows could be adversely affected by an increase in interest expense, and lower interest rates may reduce our borrowing costs and improve our operational results. We continuously monitor our interest rate exposure and may elect to use derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk associated with floating rate debt.

In August 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $270.0 million that matures in September 2025 and in May 2019, we entered into an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $350.0 million that matures in May 2022. These swaps effectively convert LIBOR-based floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest-rate changes on future interest expense. After considering the effect of the interest rate swap, $416.3 million of our floating rate debt with an average coupon rate of 2.46% would be subject to interest rate fluctuations. As a result, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by $4.1 million. However, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would also increase annual interest expense by $2.8 million due to the impact of LIBOR floors included in certain debt agreements.

The table below sets forth the outstanding face amount of our debt subject to LIBOR fluctuations after incorporating the impact of the interest rate swaps discussed above:
Outstanding Face Amount
(dollars in thousands) June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Floating Rate $ 416,269  $ 419,316 
Fixed Rate 1,078,890  1,082,808 
Total $ 1,495,159  $ 1,502,124 

LIBOR was initially expected to be phased out at the end of calendar year 2021. However, regulators have announced they intend to cease the publication of U.S. dollar LIBOR rates for the most common tenors (overnight and one, three, six, and 12 months) in June 2023. Despite any continued publication of U.S. dollar LIBOR through June 2023, these same regulators emphasized that no new contracts using U.S. dollar LIBOR should be entered into after December 31, 2021. A portion of our debt, which includes certain mortgage loans and our revolving credit facility, is required to pay interest at floating rates based on LIBOR. We also hold derivatives (interest rate swaps) indexed to LIBOR as hedging instruments, as described above. In the event that LIBOR is phased out, the interest rate for our floating rate debt and the swap rate for our interest rate swaps will be based on an alternative floating rate as specified in the applicable debt instrument or agreement, or as otherwise agreed upon between us and our lenders. Certain of our newer loans and financial instruments have alternative LIBOR provisions, which generally give our lenders substantial flexibility in setting alternative rates if and when LIBOR is discontinued. We expect that the provisions of our other debt agreements relating to the calculation of interest will likely be amended, and over the past year we have been working with our lenders in the ordinary course to manage transition efforts to be prepared for this phase-out. We do not know what standard, if any, will replace LIBOR if it is phased out. Currently we cannot estimate the overall impact of the phase-out of LIBOR on our current debt agreements, although it is possible that an alternative variable rate could be higher or more volatile, which could raise our borrowing costs.

Liquidity Risk

As described further in “Risk Factors,” the following factors could affect our liquidity, access to capital resources and our capital obligations.

•    Our stock price performance could impair our ability to access the capital markets, and any disruption to the capital markets or other sources of financing generally could also negatively affect our liquidity.
•    Our failure to comply with the terms of our financings or a default by our lease counterparty (including a failure by the lease guarantor to satisfy certain financial covenants that depend on the performance of our leased assets, which are outside of our control) could result in the acceleration of the requirement to repay our indebtedness or require us to seek amendments to such agreements, which we may not be able to obtain on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
•    Our ability to obtain financing or refinancing on favorable terms, if at all.
Real estate investments are relatively illiquid, and our ability to quickly sell or exchange our properties in response to changes in economic or other conditions is limited. In the event we desire or need to sell any of our properties, the value of those properties and our ability to sell at a price or on terms acceptable to us could be adversely affected by a downturn in the real estate industry generally, weakness in the senior housing and healthcare industries or other factors.
•    Because we derive substantially all of our revenues from operations conducted by third parties, any inability or unwillingness by these property managers to satisfy their respective obligations to us or to renew their leases with us upon expiration of the terms thereof could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, our ability to service our indebtedness and to make distributions to our stockholders.
•    To comply with the 90% distribution requirement applicable to REITs and to avoid income and excise taxes, we must make distributions to our stockholders. Our actual distributions to stockholders have historically been higher than the REIT distribution requirement. Distributions will limit our ability to finance investments and may limit our ability to engage in transactions that are otherwise in the best interests of our stockholders. Although we do not anticipate any inability to satisfy the REIT distribution requirement, from time to time, we may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to do so. For example, timing differences between the receipt of income and payment of deductible expenses, on the one hand, and the inclusion of that income and deduction of those expenses in arriving at our taxable income, on the other hand, or non-deductible expenses such as principal amortization or repayments or capital expenditures in excess of non-cash deductions may cause us to fail to have sufficient cash or liquid assets to enable us to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement. In the event that timing differences occur or we decide to retain cash or to distribute such greater amount as may be necessary to avoid income and excise taxation, we may seek to borrow funds, pay taxable stock dividends, distribute other property or securities or engage in a transaction intended to enable us to meet the REIT distribution requirements. Any of these actions may require us to raise additional capital to meet our obligations; however, limitations on our ability to access capital, as described above, could have an adverse effect on our ability to make required payments on our debt obligations, make distributions to our stockholders or make future investments necessary to implement our business strategy. The terms of the instruments governing our existing indebtedness restrict our ability to engage in certain types of these transactions.
As discussed in more detail in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations–Liquidity and Capital Resources,” the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the Company’s liquidity in various ways, including among other things by further impairing our ability to access the capital markets, by reducing our revenues due to decreased occupancy at our properties and reduced asset values, which over time may limit the borrowing availability under the Revolver.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a)Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and on a timely basis. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b)Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d- 15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are and may become involved in legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations and inquiries, in the ordinary course of our business. Although we are unable to predict with certainty the eventual outcome of any litigation, regulatory investigation or inquiry, in the opinion of management, we do not expect our current and any threatened legal proceedings to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. In addition, as described in “Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements, we are party to one lawsuit relating to the Merger. Given the inherent unpredictability of these types of proceedings, however, it is possible that an adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
We are supplementing the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (“Form 10-K”) with the additional risk factors set forth below. These additional risk factors supplement, and to the extent inconsistent, supersede such risk factors. The matters discussed below should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set forth in the Form 10-K. However, the risks and uncertainties that we face are not limited to those described below and those set forth in the Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

RISKS RELATED TO THE MERGER

There are material uncertainties and risks associated with the Merger Agreement and the Merger.

On June 28, 2021, we entered into the Merger Agreement with Ventas and Merger Sub, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ventas, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of conditions described therein.

There are material uncertainties and risks associated with the Merger Agreement and the Merger. If any of these uncertainties and risks develop into actual events, then the Company’s business, financial condition, results and ongoing operations, share price or prospects could be materially adversely affected. These uncertainties and risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

the announcement or pendency of the Merger may impede our ability to retain and hire key personnel and our ability to maintain relationships with property managers, tenants, employees or other third parties or its operating results and business generally;
matters relating to the Merger, including integration planning, may require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management and employees and may otherwise divert the attention of management and employees, which may affect the Company’s business operations;
the Merger Agreement restricts the Company from engaging in certain actions without the approval of Ventas, which could prevent the Company from pursuing certain business opportunities that arise prior to the closing of the Merger or making appropriate changes to the Company’s business outside the ordinary course of business;
our directors and executive officers have financial interests in the Merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally, which could have influenced their decisions to support or approve the Merger; and
existing or potential stockholder litigation in connection with the Merger may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability.

The pending Merger may not be completed on the currently contemplated timeline or terms, or at all.

The completion of the Merger is subject to certain conditions, including: (1) adoption by our stockholders of the Merger Agreement; (2) approval for listing on the NYSE of Ventas common stock to be issued in connection with the Merger; (3) the SEC having declared effective the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by Ventas in connection with the Merger, and the registration statement on Form S-4 not being the subject of any stop order or proceeding seeking a stop order; (4) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the closing of the Merger; (5) accuracy of each party’s representations, subject in most cases to materiality or material adverse effect qualifications; (6) the absence of any material adverse effect with respect to Ventas or the Company; (7) compliance with each party’s covenants in all material respects; (8) receipt by the Company of an opinion from its counsel to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code; (9) receipt by Ventas of an opinion from the Company’s REIT counsel to the effect that we will qualify as a REIT under the Code;
39


and receipt by the Company of an opinion from Ventas’s REIT counsel to the effect that Ventas will qualify as a REIT under the Code.

We cannot provide assurance that the conditions to completing the Merger will be satisfied or waived, and accordingly, that the Merger will be completed on the terms or timeline that the parties anticipate or at all. If any condition to the Merger is not satisfied, it could delay or prevent the Merger from occurring, which could negatively impact the price of our common stock or Ventas common stock and the parties’ business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. In addition, either Ventas or the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including, among other reasons, if the Merger is not completed by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on January 20, 2022.

In addition to the above risks, if the Merger Agreement is terminated and the Company seeks an alternative transaction, our stockholders cannot be certain that we will be able to find a party willing to engage in a transaction on more attractive terms than the Merger. In addition, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances specified therein, we may be required to pay Ventas a termination fee of $20.2 million.

Failure to complete the pending Merger could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Either the Company or Ventas may terminate the Merger Agreement in specified circumstances. If the Merger is not completed, the parties’ business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects may be adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Merger, the Company will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

the market price of our common stock could decline;
We will have incurred substantial costs relating to the Merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing, printing and mailing fees and integration costs that have already been incurred or will continue to be incurred until the closing of the Merger and a significant portion of these fees and costs are payable by us regardless of whether the Merger will be consummated, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects;
if the Merger Agreement is terminated and our board of directors seeks another transaction, our stockholders cannot be certain that we will be able to find another party willing to enter into a transaction as attractive as the Merger;
We could be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against such party to perform its obligations under the Merger Agreement;
We will not realize the benefit of the time and resources, financial and otherwise, committed by management to matters relating to the Merger that could have been devoted to pursuing other beneficial opportunities;
We may experience reputational harm due to the adverse perception of any failure to successfully complete the Merger or negative reactions from the financial markets or from our tenants, managers, vendors, employees and other commercial relationships; and
We may be required, under specified circumstances, to pay Ventas a termination fee of $20.2 million.

Any of these risks could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. Similarly, delays in the completion of the Merger could, among other things, result in additional transaction costs, loss of revenue or other negative effects associated with delay and uncertainty about completion of the Merger and could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects, after the Merger.

The exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in the stock prices of the Company.

In connection with the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, each share of our common stock (other than shares of our common stock owned directly by Ventas, Merger Sub or us) outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be automatically converted into the right to receive 0.1561 of a newly issued share of Ventas common stock, with holders of record of Company common stock receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares of Ventas common stock. The exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted to reflect stock price changes of either our common stock or Ventas common stock prior to the closing of the Merger, although it will be equitably adjusted in specified circumstances.

Changes in the price of Ventas common stock prior to the Merger will affect the market value of the consideration that our stockholders will receive on the closing of the Merger. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors (many of which are beyond the control of the Company and Ventas), including the following factors:

the trajectory and future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of the Delta variant, or any other variant, and the ultimate recovery of the senior housing industry from the COVID-19 pandemic;
40


changes in the respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities and prospects of either company;
changes in market assessments of the business, operations, financial position and prospects of either company;
market assessments of the likelihood that the Merger will be completed;
the expected timing of the Merger;
interest rates, general market and economic conditions and other factors affecting the price of our common stock or Ventas common stock;
federal, state and local legislation, governmental regulation and legal developments in the businesses in which the Company and Ventas operate; and
other factors beyond the control of the Company or Ventas, including those described under this “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Merger” heading.

The price of Ventas common stock at the closing of the Merger may vary from its price on the date the Merger Agreement was executed and on the date of the special meeting of our stockholders to consider and vote upon the adoption of the Merger Agreement. As a result, the market value of the merger consideration represented by the exchange ratio will also vary.

Therefore, since the number of shares of Ventas common stock to be issued per share of our common stock is generally fixed, our stockholders cannot be sure of the market value of the merger consideration they will receive upon completion of the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of the Company or could result in any competing proposal being at a lower price than it might otherwise be.

The Company is subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, to provide information to third parties, to enter into or continue discussions or negotiations with third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals, to enter into any commitment with respect to any alternative acquisition proposal, to recommend or approve any alternative acquisition proposal or change in recommendation by our board of directors, subject to customary exceptions. In addition, we may be required to pay Ventas a termination fee of $20.2 million in specified circumstances, including if the Merger Agreement is terminated in specified circumstances following the Company’s receipt of an alternative acquisition proposal. We do not have the right to terminate the Merger Agreement to accept an alternative acquisition proposal. Accordingly, notwithstanding a change in recommendation by our board of directors, unless Ventas terminates the Merger Agreement following such change in recommendation or the Merger Agreement is otherwise validly terminated, the Company will still be required to convene a special meeting of our stockholders and submit the Merger Proposal to such stockholders for approval.

These provisions could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of the Company from considering or proposing such an acquisition, even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash or market value than that market value proposed to be received in the Merger, or might result in a potential competing acquirer proposing to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become payable in specified circumstances under the Merger Agreement.

The pendency of the Merger could adversely affect the Company’s business and operations.

In connection with the pending Merger, some tenants, managers, vendors or other parties with commercial relationships with the Company may delay or defer decisions, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. Similarly, current and prospective employees of the Company may experience uncertainty about their future roles with the combined company following the Merger, which may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key personnel during the pendency of the Merger. In addition, due to covenants in the Merger Agreement, we may be unable (without Ventas’s prior written consent), during the pendency of the Merger, to pursue strategic transactions, undertake significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial.

Litigation relating to the Merger could result in significant costs, and/or a delay of or injunction against the merger.

As disclosed in “Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements, one complaint related to the Merger has been filed in federal court. The Company believes that the complaint is without merit, but the outcome of this action is uncertain and could result in significant costs to the Company. There can be no assurances that additional complaints or demands will not be filed or made with respect to the Merger. The defense or settlement of any lawsuits or claims relating to the Merger may have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operation of the Company, including by diverting management time and attention or preventing the Merger from being completed, or from being completed within the expected timeframe.
