HEALTH CARE REIT, INC.

  NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

1. Business

 

     Health Care REIT, Inc., an S&P 500 company with headquarters in Toledo, Ohio, is an equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests in seniors housing and health care real estate. Our full service platform offers property management and development services to our customers. As of September 30, 2014, our diversified portfolio consisted of 1,246  properties in 46 states, the United Kingdom, and Canada.  Founded in 1970, we were the first real estate investment trust to invest exclusively in health care facilities.

  

2. Accounting Policies and Related Matters

     Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

     New Accounting Standards     

     In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”), which amends U.S. GAAP to require reporting of discontinued operations only if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This pronouncement will be effective for the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2014 with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2014-08 on January 1, 2014 on a prospective basis.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

     In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). The standard is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.

  

3. Real Property Acquisitions and Development

 

     The total purchase price for all properties acquired has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests based upon their respective fair values in accordance with our accounting policies. The results of operations for these acquisitions have been included in our consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition and are a component of the appropriate segments.  Transaction costs primarily represent costs incurred with property acquisitions, including due diligence costs, fees for legal and valuation services and termination of pre-existing relationships computed based on the fair value of the assets acquired, lease termination fees and other acquisition-related costs.

Discontinued Operations

 

As discussed in Note 2, we adopted ASU 2014-08 effective January 1, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we sold seniors housing triple-net properties previously held for sale with a balance of $18,502,000 for a gain of $6,411,000. We have reclassified the income and expenses attributable to all properties sold prior to or held for sale at January 1, 2014 to discontinued operations.  The following illustrates the reclassification impact as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a result of classifying these properties as discontinued operations for the periods presented (in thousands):

We recorded no provision for loan losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  At September 30, 2014, there were no real estate loans with outstanding balances on non-accrual status and no allowances for loan losses were recorded.

 

7. Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

 

     During the year ended December 31, 2010, we entered into a joint venture investment with Forest City Enterprises Inc. (NYSE:FCE.A and FCE.B). We acquired a 49% interest in a seven-building life science campus located at University Park in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which is immediately adjacent to the campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This investment is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the balance sheet.

 

     During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we entered into a joint venture with Chartwell Retirement Residences (TSX:CSH.UN).  During the three months ended September 30, 2014, one of the joint venture properties was sold and the related gain was recognized in income from unconsolidated entities.  The portfolio now contains 41 properties in Canada, 38 of which are owned 50% by us and Chartwell, and three of which we wholly own. All properties are managed by Chartwell.  Our investment in the 38 properties is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the balance sheet. The aggregate remaining unamortized basis difference of our investment in this joint venture of $8,052,000 at September 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to transaction costs that

13

  NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

will be amortized over the weighted-average useful life of the related properties and included in the reported amount of income from unconsolidated entities.

 

     In conjunction with the Sunrise merger (see Note 3 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013), we acquired joint venture interests in 54 properties and a 20% interest in a newly formed Sunrise management company, which manages the entire property portfolio. On July 1, 2013, we acquired the remaining interests in 49 of the properties.  In April 2014, we acquired an additional 4% ownership in the Sunrise management company.

 

      During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we invested $214,832,000 for a 46.79% interest in a joint venture with Senior Resource Group (“SRG”) and the Public Sector Pension Investment Board.  The joint venture owns 10 properties located in major metropolitan markets in Arizona, California and Colorado.  The properties owned by the joint venture are operated by SRG.  Our investment in the 10 properties is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the balance sheet. The aggregate remaining unamortized basis difference of our investment in this joint venture of $169,266,208 at September 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to appreciation of the underlying properties as well as transaction costs, and will be amortized over the remaining useful life of the related properties and included in the reported amount of income from unconsolidated entities.

 

      The results of operations for those investments accounted for under the equity method have been included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition by the joint ventures and are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as income or loss from unconsolidated entities.

9. Borrowings Under Credit Facilities and Related Items

     On July 25, 2014, we closed on a new primary unsecured credit facility with a consortium of 28 banks that includes a $2,500,000,000 revolving credit line, a $500,000,000 term loan and a $250,000,000 Canadian denominated term loan.  We have an option to upsize the facility by up to an additional $1,000,000,000 through an accordion feature.  The facility also allows us to borrow up to $500,000,000 in alternate currencies (none outstanding at September 30, 2014).  Borrowings under the revolver are subject to interest payable at the applicable margin over LIBOR interest rate (1.204% at September 30, 2014). The applicable margin is based on certain of our debt ratings and was 1.05% at September 30, 2014.  Borrowings under the term loans are subject to interest payable at the applicable margin over LIBOR for the U.S. tranche and CDOR for the Canadian tranche based on our current credit ratings.  The applicable margin was 1.15% at September 30, 2014.  In addition, we pay a facility fee quarterly to each bank based on the bank’s commitment amount.  The facility fee depends on certain of our debt ratings and was 0.20% at September 30, 2014.  The new facility provides us with additional borrowing capacity and extends the agreement to October 31, 2018.  It can be extended for an additional year at our option.

     The following information relates to aggregate borrowings under the primary unsecured credit facility for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

10. Senior Unsecured Notes and Secured Debt

 

     We may repurchase, redeem or refinance convertible and non-convertible senior unsecured notes from time to time, taking advantage of favorable market conditions when available. We may purchase senior notes for cash through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, a tender offer or, in some cases, through the early redemption of such securities pursuant to their terms.   The non-convertible senior unsecured notes are redeemable at our option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes (or portion of such notes) being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to the redemption date and (2) any “make-whole” amount due under the terms of the notes in connection with early redemptions.   Redemptions and repurchases of debt, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.   At September 30, 2014, the annual principal payments due on these debt obligations were as follows (in thousands):

     Our debt agreements contain various covenants, restrictions and events of default. Certain agreements require us to maintain certain financial ratios and minimum net worth and impose certain limits on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens and make investments or acquisitions. As of September 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our debt agreements.

  

11. Derivative Instruments

      We are exposed to various market risks, including the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates.  We may elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. These decisions are principally based on our policy to manage the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates.  In addition, non-U.S. investments expose us to the potential losses associated with adverse changes in foreign currency to U.S. Dollar exchange rates.  We may elect to manage this risk through the use of forward contracts and issuing debt in foreign currencies.

  

     nterest Rate Swap Contracts and Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

     For instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported 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.  Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings.  Approximately $613,000 of losses, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months.

     Foreign Currency Hedges

     For instruments that are designated and qualify as net investment hedges, the variability in the foreign currency to U.S. Dollar of the instrument is recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment component of OCI.  The balance of the cumulative translation adjustment will be reclassified to earnings when the hedged investment is sold or substantially liquidated.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

     At September 30, 2014, we had six outstanding letter of credit obligations totaling $10,769,000 and expiring between 2014 and 2015.  At September 30, 2014, we had outstanding construction in process of $179,356,000 and were committed to providing additional funds of approximately $217,337,000 to complete construction. Purchase obligations at September 30, 2014 include $1,083,370,000 representing acquisitions expected to be completed before year end.  Purchase obligations also include contingent purchase obligations totaling $39,988,000. These contingent purchase obligations relate to unfunded capital improvement obligations and contingent obligations on acquisitions. Rents due from the tenant are increased to reflect the additional investment in the property.  At September 30, 2014, we had an unfunded commitment of $360,000,000 related to a secured bridge facility with one of

our operators for which we are receiving a commitment fee.

     We evaluate our leases for operating versus capital lease treatment in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 840 “Leases.”  A lease is classified as a capital lease if it provides for transfer of ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, contains a bargain purchase option, has a lease term greater than 75% of the economic life of the leased asset, or if the net present value of the future minimum lease payments are in excess of 90% of the fair value of the leased asset. Certain leases contain bargain purchase options and have been classified as capital leases.  At September 30, 2014, we had operating lease obligations of $857,034,000 relating to certain ground leases and company office space and capital lease obligations of $113,075,000 relating to certain investment properties. Regarding ground leases, we have sublease agreements with certain of our operators that require the operators to reimburse us for our monthly operating lease obligations.  At September 30, 2014, aggregate future minimum rentals to be received under these noncancelable subleases totaled $27,967,000.

14. Stock Incentive Plans

     Our Amended and Restated 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2005 Plan”) authorizes up to 6,200,000 shares of common stock to be issued at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The 2005 Plan replaced the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan (“1995 Plan”) and the Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors. The options granted to officers and key employees under the 1995 Plan vested through 2010 and expire ten years from the date of grant. Our non-employee directors, officers and key employees are eligible to participate in the 2005 Plan. The 2005 Plan allows for the issuance of, among other things, stock options, restricted stock, deferred stock units and dividend equivalent rights. Vesting periods for options, deferred stock units and restricted shares generally range from three to five years. Options expire ten years from the date of grant.  Stock-based compensation expense totaled $4,271,000 and $26,108,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and $3,956,000 and $16,650,000 for the same periods in 2013. 

     On April 13, 2014, George L. Chapman, formerly the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of the company, informed the Board of Directors that he wished to retire from the company, effective immediately.  As a result of Mr. Chapman’s retirement, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2014 included charges of $19,688,000 related to: (i) the acceleration of $9,223,000 of deferred compensation for restricted stock; and (ii) consulting, retirement payments and other costs of $10,465,000.

16. Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

      U.S. GAAP provides authoritative guidance for measuring and disclosing fair value measurements of assets and liabilities.  The guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  The guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Please see Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for additional information.

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

 

Mortgage Loans and Other Real Estate Loans Receivable — The fair value of mortgage loans and other real estate loans receivable is generally estimated by using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. 

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents — The carrying amount approximates fair value.

 

Available-for-sale Equity Investments — Available-for-sale equity investments are recorded at their fair value based on Level 1 publicly available trading prices.

21


HEALTH CARE REIT, INC.

  NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

 

Borrowings Under Unsecured  Credit Facilities — The carrying amount of the unsecured credit facilities approximates fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjustable.

 

Senior Unsecured Notes — The fair value of the fixed rate senior unsecured notes payable was estimated based on Level 1 publicly available trading prices. The carrying amount of variable rate senior unsecured notes payable approximates fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjustable.

 

Secured Debt — The fair value of fixed rate secured debt is estimated using Level 2 inputs by discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.  The carrying amount of variable rate secured debt approximates fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjustable.

 

Interest Rate Swap Agreements — Interest rate swap agreements are recorded in other assets or other liabilities on the balance sheet at fair market value.  Fair market value is estimated using Level 2 inputs by utilizing pricing models that consider forward yield curves and discount rates.

 

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts — Foreign currency forward contracts are recorded in other assets or other liabilities on the balance sheet at fair market value.  Fair market value is determined using Level 2 inputs by estimating the future value of the currency pair based on existing exchange rates, comprised of current spot and traded forward points, and calculating a present value of the net amount using a discount factor based on observable traded interest rates.

 

Redeemable OP Unitholder Interests — The fair value of our redeemable unitholder interests are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value using Level 2 inputs.  The fair value is measured using the closing price of our common stock, as units may be redeemed at the election of the holder for cash or, at our option, one share of our common stock per unit, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

The market approach is utilized to measure fair value for our financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value on a recurring basis.  The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The following summarizes items measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

 

In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we also have assets and liabilities in our balance sheet that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.  As these assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, they are not included in the tables above. Assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include those acquired/assumed in business combinations (see Note 3) and asset impairments (if applicable, see Note 5 for impairments of real property and Note 6 for impairments of loans receivable). We have determined that the fair value measurements included in each of these assets and liabilities rely primarily on company-specific inputs and our assumptions about the use of the assets and settlement of liabilities, as observable inputs are not available. As such, we have determined that each of these fair value measurements generally reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We estimate the fair value of real estate and related intangibles using the income approach and unobservable data such as net operating income and estimated capitalization and discount rates.  We also consider local and national industry market data including comparable sales, and commonly engage an external real estate appraiser to assist us in our estimation of fair value.  We estimate the fair value of assets held for sale based on current sales price expectations or, in the absence of such price expectations, Level 3 inputs described above.  We estimate the fair value of secured debt assumed in business combinations using current interest rates at which similar borrowings could be obtained on the transaction date.

  

17. Segment Reporting

      We invest in seniors housing and health care real estate. We evaluate our business and make resource allocations on our five operating segments: seniors housing triple-net, seniors housing operating, medical office buildings, hospitals and life science. Our seniors housing triple-net properties include skilled nursing/post-acute facilities, assisted living facilities, independent living/continuing care retirement communities, care homes (United Kingdom), care homes with nursing (United Kingdom) and combinations thereof. Under the seniors housing triple-net segment, we invest in seniors housing and health care real estate through acquisition and financing of primarily single tenant properties. Properties acquired are primarily leased under triple-net leases and we are not involved in the management of the property. Our seniors housing operating properties include the seniors housing communities referenced above and independent supportive living facilities (Canada) that are owned and/or operated through RIDEA structures (see Notes 3 and 18).

     Our medical facility properties include medical office buildings, hospitals and life science buildings which are aggregated into our medical facilities reportable segment. Our medical office buildings are typically leased to multiple tenants and generally require a certain level of property management. Our hospital investments are leased and we are not involved in the management of the property. Our life science investment represents an investment in an unconsolidated entity (see Note 7). 

     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013). The results of operations for all acquisitions described in Note 3 are included in our consolidated results of operations from the acquisition dates and are components of the appropriate segments.  There are no intersegment sales or transfers.

     We evaluate performance based upon net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) of each segment. We define NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements, less property level operating expenses. We believe NOI provides investors relevant and useful information because it measures the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our properties.    

     Non-segment revenue consists mainly of interest income on non-real estate investments and other income. Non-segment assets consist of corporate assets including cash, deferred loan expenses and corporate offices and equipment among others. Non-property

specific revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in determining NOI.

18. Income Taxes and Distributions

 

     We elected to be taxed as a REIT commencing with our first taxable year.  To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, at least 90% of taxable income (excluding 100% of net capital gains) must be distributed to stockholders. REITs that do not distribute a certain amount of current year taxable income in the current year are also subject to a 4% federal excise tax. The main differences between undistributed net income for federal income tax purposes and financial statement purposes are the recognition of straight-line rent for reporting purposes, basis differences in acquisitions, recording of impairments, differing useful lives and depreciation and amortization methods for real property and the provision for loan losses for reporting purposes versus bad debt expense for tax purposes.

 

Under the provisions of the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (“RIDEA”), for taxable years beginning after July 30, 2008, a REIT may lease “qualified health care properties” on an arm’s-length basis to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) if the property is operated on behalf of such TRS by a person who qualifies as an “eligible independent contractor.” Generally, the rent received from the TRS will meet the related party rent exception and will be treated as “rents from real

property.”  A “qualified health care property” includes real property and any personal property that is, or is necessary or incidental to the use of, a hospital, nursing facility, assisted living facility, congregate care facility, qualified continuing care facility, or other licensed facility which extends medical or nursing or ancillary services to patients. We have entered into various joint ventures that were structured under RIDEA. Resident level rents and related operating expenses for these facilities are reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and are subject to federal and state income taxes as the operations of such facilities are included in TRS entities. Certain net operating loss carryforwards could be utilized to offset taxable income in future years. 

     Income tax expense reflected in the financial statements primarily represents U.S. federal and state and local income taxes as well as non-U.S. income based or withholding taxes on certain investments located in jurisdictions outside the U.S.  During the quarter, we established certain new wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries in Luxembourg and Jersey and transferred interests in certain foreign investments into this new holding company structure.  The new structure includes a property holding company that is tax resident in the United Kingdom.  No material adverse current tax consequences in Luxembourg, Jersey or the United Kingdom resulted from the creation of this new holding company structure and all of the subsidiary entities in the structure are treated as disregarded entities of the company for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  The company will reflect current and deferred tax liabilities for any such withholding taxes incurred as a result of this holding company structure in its consolidated financial statements. 

      The income tax benefit for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 is due primarily to the elimination of deferred tax liabilities in certain United Kingdom property holding companies which offsets the current year tax provision.  The income tax expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 was due to operating income at our TRS entities.  Net deferred tax liabilities with respect to our TRS entities totaled $12,310,000 and $19,748,000 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and related primarily to differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of fixed and intangible assets.

     Generally, given current statutes of limitations, we are subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for the year ended December 31, 2011 and subsequent years and by state taxing authorities for the year ended December 31, 2010 and subsequent years.  The company and its subsidiaries are also subject to audit by the Canada Revenue Agency and provincial authorities generally for periods subsequent to our initial investments in Canada made in May 2012, by HM Revenue & Customs for periods subsequent to our initial investments in the United Kingdom made in August 2012 and by Luxembourg taxing authorities generally for periods subsequent to our establishment of certain Luxembourg-based subsidiaries during 2014.

      The balance of our unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $927,000 and $6,413,000, respectively.  As of September 30, 2014, $6,976,000 (including potential interest and penalties) relating to the April 1, 2011 Genesis HealthCare Corporation transaction (“Genesis Acquisition”) due to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.  As a part of the Genesis Acquisition, we received a full indemnification from FC-GEN Operations Investment, LLC covering income taxes or other taxes as well as  interest and penalties relating to tax positions taken by FC-GEN Operations Investment, LLC prior to the acquisition.  Accordingly, an offsetting indemnification asset was recorded in receivables and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and was reversed as of September 30, 2014.  The remaining unrecognized tax benefits, as currently accrued for, have an immaterial impact on the effective tax rate to the extent that they would be recognized.

Business Strategy

     Our primary objectives are to protect stockholder capital and enhance stockholder value. We seek to pay consistent cash dividends to stockholders and create opportunities to increase dividend payments to stockholders as a result of annual increases in net operating income and portfolio growth. To meet these objectives, we invest across the full spectrum of seniors housing and health care real estate and diversify our investment portfolio by property type, relationship and geographic location.

     Substantially all of our revenues are derived from operating lease rentals, resident fees and services, and interest earned on outstanding loans receivable. These items represent our primary sources of liquidity to fund distributions and depend upon the continued ability of our obligors to make contractual rent and interest payments to us and the profitability of our operating properties. To the extent that our customers/partners experience operating difficulties and become unable to generate sufficient cash to make payments to us, there could be a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition. To mitigate this risk, we monitor our investments through a variety of methods determined by the type of property. Our proactive and comprehensive asset management process for seniors housing properties generally includes review of monthly financial statements and other operating data for each property, review of obligor/partner creditworthiness, property inspections, and review of covenant compliance relating to licensure, real estate taxes, letters of credit and other collateral. Our internal property management division actively manages and monitors the medical office building portfolio with a comprehensive process including tenant relations, lease expirations, the mix of health service providers, hospital/health system relationships, property performance, capital improvement needs, and market conditions among other things. In monitoring our portfolio, our personnel use a proprietary database to collect and analyze property-specific data. Additionally, we conduct extensive research to ascertain industry trends.  We evaluate the operating environment in each property’s market to determine the likely trend in operating performance of the facility.  When we identify unacceptable trends, we seek to mitigate, eliminate or transfer the risk. Through these efforts, we are generally able to intervene at an early stage to address any negative trends, and in so doing, support both the collectability of revenue and the value of our investment.

     In addition to our asset management and research efforts, we also structure our investments to help mitigate payment risk. Operating leases and loans are normally credit enhanced by guaranties and/or letters of credit. In addition, operating leases are typically structured as master leases and loans are generally cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with other real estate loans, operating leases or agreements between us and the obligor and its affiliates.

     For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, rental income and resident fees and services represented 42% and 57%, respectively, of total revenues (including discontinued operations).  Substantially all of our operating leases are designed with

29


Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

escalating rent structures. Leases with fixed annual rental escalators are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial lease period, subject to a collectability assessment. Rental income related to leases with contingent rental escalators is generally recorded based on the contractual cash rental payments due for the period. Our yield on loans receivable depends upon a number of factors, including the stated interest rate, the average principal amount outstanding during the term of the loan and any interest rate adjustments.

     Our primary sources of cash include rent and interest receipts, resident fees and services, borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility, public issuances of debt and equity securities, proceeds from investment dispositions and principal payments on loans receivable. Our primary uses of cash include dividend distributions, debt service payments (including principal and interest), real property investments (including acquisitions, capital expenditures, construction advances and transaction costs), loan advances, property operating expenses and general and administrative expenses.  Depending upon the availability and cost of external capital, we believe our liquidity is sufficient to fund these uses of cash.

     We also continuously evaluate opportunities to finance future investments.  New investments are generally funded from temporary borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility, internally generated cash and the proceeds from investment dispositions. Our investments generate cash from net operating income and principal payments on loans receivable. Permanent financing for future investments, which replaces funds drawn under our primary unsecured credit facility, has historically been provided through a combination of the issuance of public debt and equity securities and the incurrence or assumption of secured debt.

     Depending upon market conditions, we believe that new investments will be available in the future with spreads over our cost of capital that will generate appropriate returns to our stockholders. It is also possible that investment dispositions may occur in the future. To the extent that investment dispositions exceed new investments, our revenues and cash flows from operations could be adversely affected. We expect to reinvest the proceeds from any investment dispositions in new investments. To the extent that new investment requirements exceed our available cash on-hand, we expect to borrow under our primary unsecured credit facility. At September 30, 2014, we had $998,678,000 of cash and cash equivalents, $118,167,000 of restricted cash and $2,500,000,000 of available borrowing capacity under our primary unsecured credit facility.

  

Capital Market Outlook

     We believe the capital markets remain supportive of our investment strategy.  In July 2014, we closed on a new primary unsecured credit facility that further enhances our access to efficient capital and financial flexibility.  For the 21 months ended September 30, 2014, we raised over $6.0 billion in aggregate gross proceeds through the issuance of common stock and unsecured debt. The capital raised, in combination with available cash and borrowing capacity under our line of credit, supported $5.7 billion in gross new investments during 2013 and $1.8 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  We expect attractive investment opportunities to remain available in the future as we continue to leverage the benefits of our relationship investment strategy.

  

Key Transactions in 2014

     Capital.  In May 2014, we completed the public issuance of 16,100,000 shares of common stock for approximate gross proceeds of $1,003,835,000. In September 2014, we completed the public issuance of 17,825,000 shares of common stock for approximate gross proceeds of $1,136,344,000. Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we raised $186,996,000 through our dividend reinvestment program. In July 2014, we closed on a new primary unsecured credit facility that includes a $2,500,000,000 revolving line of credit, a $500,000,000 term loan and a $250,000,000 Canadian denominated term loan plus an option to upsize the facility by up to an additional $1,000,000,000 through an accordion feature. The facility also allows us to borrow up to $500,000,000 in alternate currencies.  Based on our current credit ratings, the revolver is priced at 1.05% over LIBOR with a 0.20% annual facility fee and the term loans are priced at 1.15% over LIBOR for the U.S. tranche and CDOR for the Canadian tranche.  Among other things, the new facility provides us with additional borrowing capacity and extends the agreement to October 31, 2018.  It can be extended for an additional year at our option.

Key Performance Indicators, Trends and Uncertainties

     We utilize several key performance indicators to evaluate the various aspects of our business. These indicators are discussed below and relate to operating performance, concentration risk and credit strength. Management uses these key performance indicators to facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results, in making operating decisions and for budget planning purposes.

     Operating Performance. We believe that net income attributable to common stockholders (“NICS”) is the most appropriate earnings measure. Other useful supplemental measures of our operating performance include funds from operations (“FFO”), net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) and same store cash NOI (“SSCNOI”); however, these supplemental measures are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Please refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further discussion and reconciliations of FFO, NOI and SSCNOI. These earnings measures and their relative per share amounts are widely used by investors and analysts in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies. The following table reflects the recent historical trends of our operating performance measures for the periods presented (in thousands, except per share amounts):

     Concentration Risk. We evaluate our concentration risk in terms of investment mix, relationship mix and geographic mix. Concentration risk is a valuable measure in understanding what portion of our investments could be at risk if certain sectors were to experience downturns.  Investment mix measures the portion of our investments that relate to our various property types. Relationship mix measures the portion of our investments that relate to our top five relationships. Geographic mix measures the portion of our investments that relate to our top five states (or international equivalents).

     Credit Strength. We measure our credit strength both in terms of leverage ratios and coverage ratios. The leverage ratios indicate how much of our balance sheet capitalization is related to long-term debt. The coverage ratios indicate our ability to service interest and fixed charges (interest, secured debt principal amortization and preferred dividends). We expect to maintain capitalization ratios

and coverage ratios sufficient to maintain compliance with our debt covenants. The coverage ratios are based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) which is discussed in further detail, and reconciled to net income, below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Leverage ratios and coverage ratios are widely used by investors, analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, investment recommendations and rating of companies. The following table reflects the recent historical trends for our credit strength measures for the periods presented:

     We evaluate our key performance indicators in conjunction with current expectations to determine if historical trends are indicative of future results. Our expected results may not be achieved and actual results may differ materially from our expectations. Factors that may cause actual results to differ from expected results are described in more detail in “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Management regularly monitors economic and other factors to develop strategic and tactical plans designed to improve performance and maximize our competitive position. Our ability to achieve our financial objectives is dependent upon our ability to effectively execute these plans and to appropriately respond to emerging economic and company-specific trends. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, under the headings “Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion of these risk factors.

 

Corporate Governance

     Maintaining investor confidence and trust is important in today’s business environment. Our Board of Directors and management are strongly committed to policies and procedures that reflect the highest level of ethical business practices. Our corporate governance guidelines provide the framework for our business operations and emphasize our commitment to increase stockholder value while meeting all applicable legal requirements. These guidelines meet the listing standards adopted by the New York Stock Exchange and are available on the Internet at www.hcreit.com/investor-relations/governance.  The information on our website is not incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and our web address is included as an inactive textual reference only.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

     Our primary sources of cash include rent and interest receipts, resident fees and services, borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility, public issuances of debt and equity securities, proceeds from investment dispositions and principal payments on loans receivable. Our primary uses of cash include dividend distributions, debt service payments (including principal and interest), real property investments (including acquisitions, capital expenditures, construction advances and transaction costs), loan advances, property operating expenses, and general and administrative expenses. These sources and uses of cash are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and are discussed in further detail below.  The following is a summary of our sources and uses of cash flows (dollars in thousands):

     Operating Activities. The change in net cash provided from operating activities is primarily attributable to increases in NOI, which is primarily due to acquisitions.  Please see “Results of Operations” for further discussion. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash flow provided from operations exceeded cash distributions to stockholders.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cash distributions to stockholders exceeded cash flow provided from operations.  The source of funds for these excess distributions was available cash on-hand, which was $1,033,764,000 at December 31, 2012 and $164,838,000 at September 30, 2013.

  

     Investing Activities.  The changes in net cash used in investing activities are primarily attributable to net changes in real property investments, real estate loans receivable and investments in unconsolidated entities, which are summarized above in “Key Transactions in 2014” and Notes 3, 6 and 7 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements.  The following is a summary of cash used in non-acquisition capital improvement activities (dollars in thousands):

    The change in new development is primarily due to the number and size of construction projects on-going during the relevant periods.  Renovations, redevelopments and other capital improvements include expenditures to maximize property value, increase net operating income, maintain a market-competitive position and/or achieve property stabilization.  Generally, these expenditures have increased as a result of acquisitions, primarily in our seniors housing operating segment.

 

      Financing Activities.  The changes in net cash provided from financing activities are primarily attributable to changes related to our long-term debt arrangements, the issuance/conversion of common and preferred stock and dividend payments. Please refer to Notes 9, 10 and 13 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

     At September 30, 2014, we had investments in unconsolidated entities with our ownership ranging from 10% to 50%. Please see Note 7 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.  We use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate exposure. Please see Note 11 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for

(3) Based on foreign currency exchange rates in effect as of balance sheet date.

(4) Based on variable interest rates in effect as of balance sheet date.

(5) See Note 12 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

(6) Primarily relates to an unfunded commitment for a secured bridge facility with one of our operators which is discussed in Note 12 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements, and our Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, which is discussed in Note 19 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Reflects payments to be made due to Mr. Chapman's retirement discussed in Note 14 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

 

Capital Structure

          Please refer to “Credit Strength” above for a discussion of our leverage and coverage ratio trends.  Our debt agreements contain various covenants, restrictions and events of default. Certain agreements require us to maintain certain financial ratios and minimum net worth and impose certain limits on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens and make investments or acquisitions. As of September 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our debt agreements. Please refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further discussion. None of our debt agreements contain provisions for acceleration which could be triggered by our debt ratings. However, under our primary unsecured credit facility, the ratings on our senior unsecured notes are used to determine the fees and interest charged.  A summary of certain covenants and our results as of September 30, 2014 is as follows:

     We plan to manage the company to maintain compliance with our debt covenants and with a capital structure consistent with our current profile. Any downgrades in terms of ratings or outlook by any or all of the rating agencies could have a material adverse impact on our cost and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition.

 

     On May 4, 2012, we filed an open-ended automatic or “universal” shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering an indeterminate amount of future offerings of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, warrants and units. As of October 31, 2014, we had an effective registration statement on file in connection with our enhanced dividend reinvestment plan under which we may issue up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock. As of October 31, 2014, 3,973,371  shares of common stock remained available for issuance under this registration statement. We have entered into separate Equity Distribution Agreements with each of UBS Securities LLC, RBS Securities Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc. relating to the offer and sale from time to time of up to $630,015,000 aggregate amount of our common stock (“Equity Shelf Program”). As of October 31, 2014, we had $457,112,000 of remaining capacity under the Equity Shelf Program. Depending upon market conditions, we anticipate issuing securities under our registration statements to invest in additional properties and to repay borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities.

(1) Change is due to increases in cash and non-cash NOI (described below) related to 522 same store properties.

(2) Change is primarily due to the acquisition of 48 properties, the conversion of 10 construction projects into revenue-generating properties subsequent to January 1, 2013 and the transition of 38 properties from our seniors housing operating segment on September 1, 2013.

(1) See Note 5 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

 

     The increase in rental income is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of new properties, 38 properties transitioned from the seniors housing operating segment and the conversion of newly constructed seniors housing triple-net properties from which we receive rent and the modification of our lease with Genesis HealthCare to replace the CPI-based component of an annual increaser with a fixed annual increaser effective April 1, 2014. Certain of our leases contain annual rental escalators that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index and/or changes in the gross operating revenues of the tenant’s properties.  These escalators are not fixed, so no straight-line rent is recorded; however, rental income is recorded based on the contractual cash rental payments due for the period.  If gross operating revenues at our facilities and/or the Consumer Price Index do not increase, a portion of our revenues may not continue to increase.  Sales of real property would offset revenue increases and, to the extent that they exceed new acquisitions, could result in decreased revenues.  Our leases could renew above or below current rent rates, resulting in an increase or decrease in rental income.  For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we had no lease renewals but we had 30 leases with rental rate increasers ranging from 0.10% to 0.43% in our seniors housing triple-net portfolio. 

    During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we completed four seniors housing triple-net construction projects representing $71,569,000 or $185,896 per bed/unit plus expansion projects totaling $9,298,000.  The following is a summary of our seniors housing triple-net construction projects, excluding expansions, pending as of September 30, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

     Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 represents secured debt interest expense offset by interest allocated to discontinued operations.  The change in secured debt interest expense is due to the net effect and timing of assumptions, segment transitions, extinguishments and principal amortizations.

     Depreciation and amortization increased primarily as a result of new property acquisitions, the conversions of newly constructed investment properties and the transition of 38 properties from the seniors housing operating segment on September 1, 2013. To the extent that we acquire or dispose of additional properties in the future, our provision for depreciation and amortization will change accordingly. 

     Transaction costs represent costs incurred with property acquisitions including due diligence costs, fees for legal and valuation services, the termination of pre-existing relationships and lease termination expenses and other similar costs.  The change in transaction costs is primarily due to lower transaction volume.

     The increase in other expenses is primarily related to the reversal of the indemnification asset recorded in connection with the Genesis Acquisition. An income tax benefit was recorded in the same amount to reverse the unrecognized tax benefits related to the transaction.  Refer to Note 18 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

    Changes in the gain on sales of properties are related to property sales which totaled seven and 19 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

     Fluctuations in revenues and property operating expenses are primarily a result of acquisitions subsequent to September 30, 2013, offset by the transition of 38 properties to seniors housing triple-net on September 1, 2013. The fluctuations in depreciation and amortization are due to acquisitions and variations in amortization of short-lived intangible assets.  The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the prior year is due primarily to a number of short lived

Interest expense represents secured debt interest expense as well as interest expense related to our $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term loan and our £550,000,000 Sterling-denominated senior unsecured notes. The increase in interest expense from the prior year is attributed primarily to the £550,000,000 Sterling-denominated senior unsecured notes issued in November 2013.  Please refer to Note 10 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

     The decrease in transaction costs is primarily due to costs associated with the Sunrise merger transaction in the prior year. The income tax benefit for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 is due primarily to the elimination of deferred tax liabilities in certain United Kingdom property holding companies, which offsets the current year tax provision.  In connection with this elimination of deferred tax liabilities, certain organizational costs were incurred and are included in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income under “Other expenses.”  The majority of our seniors housing operating properties are formed through partnership interests. The increased loss from unconsolidated entities is primarily due to depreciation and amortization of short-lived intangible assets and costs associated with the recapitalization of the Sunrise management company.  Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 represents our partners’ share of net income (loss) related to joint ventures.

     The increase in rental income is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of new properties and the construction conversions of medical facilities from which we receive rent. Certain number of our leases contain annual rental escalators that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index.  These escalators are not fixed, so no straight-line rent is recorded; however, rental income is

recorded based on the contractual cash rental payments due for the period.  If the Consumer Price Index does not increase, a portion of our revenues may not continue to increase.  Sales of real property would offset revenue increases and, to the extent that they exceed new acquisitions, could result in decreased revenues.  Our leases could renew above or below current rent rates, resulting in an increase or decrease in rental income.  For the three months ended September 30, 2014, our consolidated medical office building portfolio signed 60,443 square feet of new leases and 131,474 square feet of renewals.  The weighted-average term of these leases was five years, with a rate of $22.86 per square foot and tenant improvement and lease commission costs of $14.11 per square foot.  Substantially all of these leases during the referenced quarter contain an annual fixed or contingent escalation rent structure ranging from the change in CPI to 4%.  For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we had two leases with rental rate increasers ranging from 0.21% to 0.31% in our hospital portfolio.

 

    During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we completed three medical office building construction projects representing $56,807,000 or $228 per square foot plus one hospital expansion project totaling $4,951,000.  The following is a summary of the medical facilities construction projects, excluding expansions, pending as of September 30, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

     The increase in property operating expenses and depreciation and amortization is primarily attributable to acquisitions and construction conversions of new medical facilities for which we incur certain property operating expenses offset by property operating expenses associated with discontinued operations.  The change in transaction costs is due primarily to higher transaction volume in the current year.  Income from unconsolidated entities includes our share of net income related to our joint venture investment with Forest City Enterprises and certain unconsolidated property investments related to our strategic joint venture relationship with a national medical office building company.  The decrease is primarily attributable to lower occupancy in the current year.

The change in interest expense on senior unsecured notes is due to the net effect of issuances and extinguishments, excluding our $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term loan and our £550,000,000 Sterling-denominated senior unsecured notes, both of which are in our seniors housing operating segment.  Please refer to Note 10 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.  We capitalize certain interest costs associated with funds used for the construction of properties owned directly by us. The amount capitalized is based upon the balances outstanding during the construction period using the rate of interest that approximates our cost of financing. Our interest expense is reduced by the amount capitalized.  Loan expense represents the amortization of deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the issuance and amendments of debt. Loan expense changes are due to amortization of charges for costs incurred in connection with senior unsecured note issuances.  The change in interest expense on the unsecured credit facilities is due primarily to the net effect and timing of draws, paydowns and variable interest rate changes.  Please refer to Notes 9 and 10 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our long-term debt arrangements.

 

     General and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated revenues (including revenues from discontinued operations) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 4.66% and 3.78%, respectively.  The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily related to costs associated with our initiatives to attract and retain appropriate personnel to achieve our business objectives and $19,688,000 of CEO transition costs (see Note 14 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information).  The loss on extinguishment of debt is due to the refinancing of our unsecured credit facility and the redemption of convertible senior notes.  See Notes 9 and 13 for additional information.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

     We believe that net income, as defined by U.S. GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, we consider FFO, NOI and EBITDA to be useful supplemental measures of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time as evidenced by the provision for depreciation. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. In response, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation from net income. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, means net income attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate and impairment of depreciable assets, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling interests.

     Net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) is used to evaluate the operating performance of our properties. We define NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses. Property operating expenses represent costs associated with managing, maintaining and servicing tenants for our seniors housing operating and medical facility properties.  These expenses include, but are not limited to, property-related payroll and benefits, property management fees, marketing, housekeeping, food service, maintenance, utilities, property taxes and insurance.  General and administrative expenses represent costs unrelated to property operations or transaction costs.  These expenses include, but are not limited to, payroll and benefits, professional services, office expenses and depreciation of corporate fixed assets.  Same store cash NOI (“SSCNOI”) is used to evaluate the cash-based operating performance of our properties under a consistent population which eliminates changes in the composition of our portfolio.  As used herein, same store is generally defined as those revenue-generating properties in the portfolio for the reporting period subsequent to January 1, 2013.  Any properties acquired, developed, transitioned, sold or classified as held for sale during that period are excluded from the same store amounts.  We believe NOI and SSCNOI provide investors relevant and useful information because they measure the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI and SSCNOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our properties.

     EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe that EBITDA, along with net income and cash flow provided from operating activities, is an important supplemental measure because it provides additional information to assess and evaluate the performance of our operations. We primarily utilize EBITDA to measure our interest coverage ratio, which represents EBITDA divided by total interest, and our fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents EBITDA divided by fixed charges. Fixed charges include total interest, secured debt principal amortization and preferred dividends. 

     A covenant in our primary unsecured credit facility contains a financial ratio based on a definition of EBITDA that is specific to that agreement. Failure to satisfy these covenants could result in an event of default that could have a material adverse impact on our cost and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition. Due to the materiality of these debt agreements and the financial covenants, we have disclosed Adjusted EBITDA, which represents EBITDA as defined above and adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, provision for loan losses and gain/loss on extinguishment of debt. We use Adjusted EBITDA to measure our adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by fixed charges on a trailing twelve months basis. Fixed charges include total interest (excluding capitalized interest and non-cash interest expenses), secured debt principal amortization and preferred dividends. Our covenant requires an adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50 times.

     Other than Adjusted EBITDA, our supplemental reporting measures and similarly entitled financial measures are widely used by investors, equity and debt analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies. Management uses these financial measures to facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results and in making operating decisions. Additionally, these measures are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management. Adjusted EBITDA is used solely to determine our compliance with a financial covenant in our primary unsecured credit facility and is not being presented for use by investors for any other purpose. None of our supplemental measures represent net income or cash flow provided from operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternative measures of profitability or liquidity. Finally, the supplemental measures, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts or other companies.

     The table below reflects the reconciliation of FFO to net income attributable to common stockholders, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, for the periods presented. The provisions for depreciation and amortization include provisions for depreciation and amortization from discontinued operations. Noncontrolling interest and unconsolidated entity amounts represent adjustments to reflect our share of depreciation and amortization.  Amounts are in thousands except for per share data.

Health Care Reimbursements

 

Policy and legislative changes that increase or decrease government reimbursement impact our operators and tenants that participate in Medicare, Medicaid or other government programs. To the extent that policy or legislative changes decrease government reimbursement to our operators and tenants, our revenue and operations may be indirectly adversely affected.

 

Recent attention on skilled nursing facility (“SNF”) billing practices and payments and ongoing government pressure to reduce spending by government health care programs could also result in lower payments to our operators.  The Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), Office of Inspector General (“OIG”) has released several reports focusing on SNFs’ billing practices.  In the OIG’s March 2014 Compendium of Priority Recommendations, a report that highlights OIG’s previous recommendations for which corrective action has not been completed, the OIG cited its prior December 2010 and November 2012 reports addressing questionable billing practices by SNFs.  The OIG continues to recommend, among other things, monitoring overall Medicare payments to SNFs and adjusting rates as necessary, including monitoring of compliance with new therapy assessments, and following up on SNFs that billed in error or who have known questionable billing practices.

 

Additionally, on June 4, 2014, the OIG released a report finding that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) inappropriately paid $4.3 million to long-term care hospitals (“LTCHs”) in 2010 and 2011, as a result of certain readmissions practices.  The OIG recommended that CMS review program safeguards.

 

Further, OIG’s Work Plan for Fiscal Year 2014 includes several new agenda items that may impact our operators and tenants.  For example, OIG will (i) determine the impact of new inpatient admission criteria on hospital billing, Medicare payments, and beneficiary payments; (ii) describe SNF billing practices in select years and describe variation in billing among SNFs in those years; and (iii) review the extent to which hospices serve Medicare beneficiaries who reside in assisted living facilities.  The audits and investigations identified in the Work Plan provide insight into the OIG’s objectives for the coming year.

 

On December 26, 2013, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (“Budget Act”) was enacted.  The Budget Act replaced scheduled cuts to the calendar year 2014 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule with a 0.5% increase for services provided through March 31, 2014.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

The Budget Act also extended the 2% sequestration cuts for Medicare through 2023, and a bill signed by the President on February 15, 2014, further extended these cuts for an additional year, through fiscal year 2024.  The Budget Act included the Pathway for SGR Reform Act of 2013 (“SGR Reform”).  SGR Reform implemented several changes to the Medicare payment rules for LTCHs.  For a discharge in cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2015, specified cases in LTCHs will receive the “applicable” siteneutral payment rate. Specifically, payment rates will be blended for discharges in cost reporting periods beginning in fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2017, consisting of half of the site neutral payment rate and half of the payment rate that would otherwise apply, and then shift to all siteneutral payments in fiscal year 2018.  Patients with a threeday stay in an intensive care unit (“ICU”) prior to LTCH admission or ventilator patients with at least 96 hours are exempted from the lower siteneutral payments if the discharge does not have a principal diagnosis relating to a psychiatric diagnosis or to rehabilitation.  Beginning in fiscal year 2020, LTCHs are to maintain at least 50% of patients that are excluded from the site-neutral payments.   SGR Reform also requires MedPAC to conduct a study and submit a report to Congress by June 30, 2019 that includes recommendations that address these changes to the LTCH payment policies.  Additionally, beginning in fiscal year 2016, calculation of length of stay requirements for LTCHs will exclude any patients for whom payment is made (i) at the site-neutral payment rate and (ii) under any Medicare Advantage plan.  SGR Reform also delayed implementation of the 25% rule for another three years, and the Secretary of HHS must issue a report in two years on the need for any further extension or modifications to the 25% rule.  Finally, SGR Reform reinstituted a moratorium on new LTCHs or any increase in LTCH beds from January 1, 2015 through September 30, 2017.

 

On April 1, 2014, the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014 (“Access to Medicare Act”) was enacted.  The Access to Medicare Act extends the 0.5% update to the calendar year 2014 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule through December 31, 2014 and replaces it with a 0% update from January 1 through March 31, 2015.  The Access to Medicare Act also realigns the fiscal year 2024 Medicare sequestration amounts so that there will be a 4% sequester for the first six months and a 0% sequester for the second six months, instead of a 2% sequester for the full twelve-month period.  Additionally, the Access to Medicare Act extends the historical therapy cap waiver and exceptions process through March 31, 2015 and implements value-based purchasing for skilled nursing services.  Beginning in fiscal year 2019, 2% of skilled nursing payments will be withheld and approximately 50% to 70% of the amount withheld will be paid to skilled nursing facilities through value-based payments.  SNFs will begin reporting a readmissions rate measure by October 1, 2015 and a resource use measure by October 1, 2016.  Both measures will be publicly available by October 1, 2017.

 

On March 4, 2014, the President released his proposed fiscal year 2015 budget, which includes legislative proposals that, taken together, are expected to reduce health care spending by an estimated $355.6 billion over ten years.  The proposals include, among others, proposals to reduce payments to inpatient rehabilitation facilities, long-term care hospitals, and SNFs.  Compared to the fiscal year 2014 budget, the fiscal year 2015 proposed budget estimates a net increase of $54.3 billion above the fiscal year 2014 level in mandatory and discretionary outlays for CMS.  As a related matter, on September 19, 2014, the President signed into law an approximately $1 trillion Continuing Appropriations Resolution that extends the existing appropriations law through December 11, 2014, or until enactment of specified appropriations legislation. 

 

On July 3, 2014, CMS issued a proposed rule outlining payment policies and rates for the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (“PFS”) for calendar year 2015.  While the proposed rule does not include proposals or announcements on the PFS update or SGR, as these calculations are determined under a prescribed statutory formula that cannot be changed by CMS, the proposed rule does state that CMS expects payments for chronic care management services to have a positive effect on family practice, internal medicine, and geriatrics. 

 

Also on July 3, 2014, CMS issued a proposed rule outlining payment policies and rates for hospital outpatient departments (“HOPD”) and ambulatory surgery centers (“ASC”) for calendar year 2015.  As part of this rule, CMS proposes to apply a net 2.1% HOPD payment increase and a net 1.2% ASC payment increase. 

 

On August 5, 2014, CMS published its final rule for the Prospective Payment System and Consolidated Billing for SNFs for fiscal year 2015.  Under this rule, the payment rate for SNFs increased by 2.0 percent, which takes into account a 0.5 percentage point multifactor productivity adjustment, and results in an aggregate increase of $750 million in payments to SNFs from fiscal year 2014. 

 

On August 6, 2014, CMS published its final rule outlining payment policies and rates for inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”) for fiscal year 2015.  Under this rule, the payment rate for IRFs increased by 2.2 percent, accounting for adjustments, such as the multifactor productivity adjustment.  CMS estimates that aggregate payments to IRFs will increase in fiscal year 2015 by approximately $180 million.

 

On August 22, 2014, CMS published its final rule for the Inpatient Prospective Payment System (“IPPS”) and Long-Term Care Hospitals Prospective Payment System (“LTCH PPS”) for fiscal year 2015.  Under this rule, operating payment rates for

53


Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

inpatient services at acute care hospitals that successfully participate in the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting Program and are meaningful electronic health record users would increase by 1.4 percent, accounting for adjustments, such as the multifactor productivity adjustment.  However, because of the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, changes to Medicare disproportionate share hospital payments, the expiration of certain statutory provisions that provided temporary increases in hospital payments, and other changes to IPPS payment policies, CMS estimates that total Medicare payments under the IPPS will decrease by approximately $756 million in fiscal year 2015.  For LTCHs, the Medicare payment rate will increase by 0.9 percent, accounting for adjustments including, but not limited to, a multifactor productivity adjustment and the phase-in of a budget neutrality adjustment.  Including other changes, total Medicare payments to LTCHs will increase by $62 million in fiscal year 2015.  CMS also finalized a number of changes to comply with the Health Reform Laws.  For example, beginning in fiscal year 2015, hospitals with the poorest performance with respect to hospital acquired conditions will have their respective IPPS payments reduced by 1 percent.  Additionally, CMS will increase the maximum payment reduction under the Hospital Readmissions Reduction program, which began on October 1, 2012, to 3 percent of payment amounts in fiscal year 2015. 

 

On October 6, 2014, the President signed into law the Improving Medicare Post-Acute Transformation Act of 2014 (“IMPACT Act”).  The law applies to SNFs, LTCHs, IRFs and home health agencies and requires providers to report standardized patient assessment data, data on quality measures, and data on resource use and other measures.  The law requires public reporting of the quality and resource use and other measures.  The Medicare Payment Advisory Committee (“MedPAC”) is required to submit a report to Congress by June 30, 2016, evaluating and recommending features of a post-acute payment system that establishes payment rates according to individual characteristics instead of the post-acute setting where the patient is treated.  The report must include a technical prototype for a post-acute prospective payment system and the impact of moving from the current to the new payment system.

Service Standards and Notification Obligations

 

Failure to comply with the notification provisions under the Care Quality Commission (Registration) Regulations 2009 is an offense and a person guilty of an offense is liable on summary conviction to a fine of up to £2,500.  There is a proposal under discussion to increase this penalty to £10,000. 

 

 

Regulatory Oversight and Inspections

 

The Care Act 2014 sets out certain provisions which are not yet in force concerning (among others):

·         The duty of a local authority to meet the needs of an adult for care and support and a carer’s needs where the registered care provider is unable to carry on a regulated activity because of business failure;

·         The duty of the Care Quality Commission (“CQC”) to assess the financial sustainability of providers subject to its regulatory regime with a view to identifying any threats that such providers may face to their financial sustainability. Where the CQC identifies a significant risk to financial sustainability it can require the provider to develop a sustainability plan setting out the provider’s plan to mitigate or eliminate risk or require the provider to organize an independent review of the business with the costs being recovered from the provider; and

·         A new offense where certain registered care providers supply, publish or make available information that is false or misleading in a material respect. 

 

Privacy

 

In the European Union (“EU”), data protection is governed by the EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC (the “Data Protection Directive”). The Data Protection Directive has been implemented in the UK by the Data Protection Act 1998 (the “Act”) which entered into force on March 2000 and is enforced by the Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”).

 

The Act applies to a data controller that processes personal data in the context of an establishment in the UK, or where not established in the UK, or any other State of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), processes personal data through equipment located in the UK other than for the purposes of transit through the UK. Under the Act, a data controller is the person who (either alone or

54


Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

jointly or in common with other persons) determines the purposes for which and the manner in which any personal data are, or are to be, processed. Personal data is widely defined as data which relates to a living individual who can be identified from those data, or from those data and other information which is in the possession of, or is likely to come into the possession of, the data controller. Sensitive personal data is personal data consisting of information as to the racial or ethnic origin of the data subject, his/her political opinions, religious beliefs or other beliefs of a similar nature, whether he/she is a member of a trade union, his/her physical or mental health or condition, his/her sexual life, the commission or alleged commission by him/her of an offense and any proceedings for any offense committed or alleged to have been committed by him/her, the disposal of such proceedings or the sentence of any court in such proceedings.

 

     The Act imposes a number of obligations on the data controller contained in eight Data Protection Principles: (i) personal data must be processed fairly and lawfully, (ii) personal data must be processed for specified and lawful purposes, (iii) personal data must be adequate, relevant and not excessive, (iv) personal data must be accurate and up to date, (v) personal data must not be kept for longer than necessary, (vi) personal data must be processed in accordance with the rights of data subjects, (vii) appropriate technical and organizational measures shall be taken against unauthorized or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data; and (viii) there is a prohibition on transfers of personal data to countries outside the EEA that are not deemed by the European Commission to provide an adequate level of protection, which includes the U.S., unless certain exemptions under the Act apply.

 

     The ICO has a number of enforcement powers available which includes, in certain limited cases, criminal prosecution and non-criminal enforcement and audits.  In case of a breach of the Act, the ICO may: (i) provide practical advice to organizations on how they should handle data protection matters; (ii) issue undertakings committing an organization to a particular course of action in order to improve its compliance; (iii) serve enforcement notices where there has been a breach, requiring organizations to take (or refrain from taking) specified steps in order to ensure they comply with the law; (iv) conduct consensual assessments (audits) to determine if organizations are complying; (v) serve assessment notices to conduct compulsory audits to assess whether organizations processing of personal data follows good data protection practice; (vi) issue monetary penalty notices requiring organizations to pay up to £500,000 for serious breaches of the Act occurring on or after April 6, 2010 or serious breaches of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations occurring after May 26, 2011; and (vii) prosecute those who commit criminal offences under the Act.  Under the Act, individuals also have the right to claim compensation from an organization in respect of damage caused by a breach of any of the requirements of the Act.

 

There is a proposal for an EU Data Protection Regulation which would replace the Data Protection Directive and impose a significant number of new obligations including, among others, a requirement to appoint data protection officers, having detailed documentation on the processing of personal data, carrying out privacy impact assessments in certain circumstances, providing standardised data protection notices, reporting security breaches without undue delay, and providing certain rights to individuals such as a right of erasure of personal data. The EU Data Protection Regulation is to have significant enforcement powers with fines proposed by the European Commission of up 2% of annual worldwide turnover and with fines proposed by the European Parliament of up to 5% of annual worldwide turnover or €100 million whichever is the greater. The EU Data Protection Regulation may be adopted sometime in 2015 with EU Member States possibly having two years to implement the Regulation.

 

Canada

     Retirement homes and long-term care facilities are subject to regulation, and long-term care facilities may receive funding, under provincial law.  There is no federal regulation in this area.  Set out below are summaries of the principal regulatory requirements in the provinces where we have a material number of facilities.

 

     Licensing and Regulation

     British Columbia

                The Community Care and Assisted Living Act, the Residential Care Regulation, and the Community Care and Assisted Living Regulation (together, the “B.C. Act”) regulate “community care facilities” (long-term care facilities) in substantially the same manner as retirement homes are regulated under the Ontario Act. The B.C. Act defines such a facility as premises used for the purpose of supervising vulnerable persons who require three or more prescribed services.

  

                The B.C. Act also creates a separate regime for regulating “assisted living residences,” which are facilities providing at least one but not more than two prescribed care services. Assisted living residences are designed for those who can live independently, but who require assistance with certain activities.  There are designated assisted living suites in four REIT properties. Unlike community

55


Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

care facilities, assisted living residences must be registered with the registrar of assisted living residences, but do not require a license. Nevertheless, assisted living residences must be operated in a manner that does not jeopardize the health or safety of its residents. If the registrar has reason to believe a residence is not being operated in accordance with this standard, the registrar may inspect the assisted living residence and may suspend or cancel a registration.

 

                Some assisted living residences receive government funding to provide in whole or in part subsidized units, while other residences are entirely private-pay facilities.  Subsidized programs are presently offered through Independent Living BC projects, through the BC Housing program, with local health authorities awarding contracts to providers through advertised requests for proposals for the development and/or delivery of assisted living services to limited numbers of publicly-subsidized residents.  To the extent that policy or legislative changes may decrease government reimbursement to our operators and tenants, our revenue and operations may be adversely affected.  Further, the failure to obtain these contracts, or the loss of these contracts, could adversely affect operations and revenue.

  

                Independent living residences offer housing and hospitality services for retired adults who are functionally independent and able to direct their own care.  Services available for residents can include, for example, meals, housekeeping, monitoring and emergency support, social and recreational opportunities, and transportation.

  

                In British Columbia, private Independent Living Facilities (the majority of the facilities subject to the REIT) do not generally receive government funding and are not regulated beyond landlord-tenant law.

 

Québec

 

In Québec, retirement homes are regulated by the Act respecting Health Services and Social Services (the “Québec Act”) and the Regulation respecting the conditions for obtaining a certificate of compliance and the operating standards for a private seniors' residence (the “Regulation”), which refer to “private seniors’ residences.” Private seniors’ residences in Québec are required to obtain a certificate of compliance. 

 

A certificate of compliance is issued for a period of three years, is renewable and can only be validly transferred to another person with the written permission of the applicable regional licensing agency. An agency may revoke a temporary certificate, or revoke or refuse to issue or renew a certificate of compliance if, among other things, the operator fails to comply with the Act and the Regulation, although the decision of the agency can be contested before the Administrative Tribunal of Québec. The agency may also order the residence to take corrective measures, further to an inspection, complaint and/or investigation. The agency is authorized to inspect a residence, at any reasonable time of day, in order to ascertain whether it complies with the Québec Act and the Regulation.

 

Private seniors’ residences may belong to either or both of the following two categories: those offering services to independent elderly persons and those offering services to semi-independent elderly persons. The operator of a residence must, for each category, comply with the applicable criteria and standards, with some exceptions provided for residences with fewer than six or ten rooms or apartments. The Québec Act and the Regulation set out a number of detailed provisions with respect to residents’ health and safety (including mandatory call-for-help systems, safety plans in the event of fire or infectious disease, health assessments, permissible control measures, as well as administration and distribution of medication), meal services and recreation, content of residents’ files, disclosure of information to residents, and staffing requirements, among other things. 

 

     Other Related Laws

     Privacy

     All but three provinces of Canada have passed privacy laws specific to personal health information and regulating the collection, use and disclosure of such information. There are privacy laws governing activities involving personal information in the three provinces without health information specific legislation (British Columbia, Quebec and Prince Edward Island) as well as in the other provinces. Whether any particular privacy law applies to a seniors housing facility depends on the type of its licensure, which complicates the application of privacy law and the assessment of risk related to privacy breaches by such facilities.  Another complicating factor is the identification of the “custodian” responsible for privacy law compliance, which as between the owner and operator of a facility may be a matter of contract rather than legislation. In some provinces, health care services are provided by or through public bodies, which are subject to different privacy laws than those applicable in the private sector.  Providing services on behalf of a public body may impact the privacy law requirements of seniors housing facilities and their ability to process and store personal health information outside of Canada.

 

56


Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

Although the obligations of custodians of personal health information in the various provinces differ to some extent, they all include the obligation to protect the information. Privacy laws in Canada are consent-based and require the implementation of a privacy program involving policies, procedures and the designation of an individual or team with primary responsibility for a custodian’s privacy law compliance.  Breach notification is mandatory under some laws.  Some laws require notification where personal health information/personal information is processed or stored outside of Canada.  One provincial law (in Quebec) provides for fines where an organization fails to perform required due diligence before outsourcing activities involving personal information to a service provider outside of the province.

 

Some privacy regulators in Canada have order-making authority and others are ombudspersons who make recommendations which may only be enforced by a court. Under a number of privacy laws, a finding by a regulator that a custodian has breached the law creates a right to apply to a court for money damages.  In some provinces there is a statutory civil cause of action for breach of privacy. In other provinces, the courts have recognized a limited common law cause of action for breach of privacy.

 

The powers of privacy regulators and penalties for violations of privacy law vary according to the applicable law or are left to the courts.  Speaking generally, penalties do not include imprisonment or at least to date, the significant fines and damages that have been ordered or awarded in some other jurisdictions. Class actions have been certified in cases involving a breach of privacy law by a health care organization, however it is too early to identify the range of damages such organizations may anticipate if the action is successful. Privacy regulators have the authority to make public the identity of organizations that have been found to have committed a breach, so there is a reputational risk associated with privacy law violations, even where no monetary damages are incurred. The notification of affected individuals and other activities required to manage a privacy breach can give rise to significant costs including for: retaining contract staff or diverting staff from their regular duties; forensic information technology and other third party professional services (public relations, legal counsel); labor relations and other employee-related proceedings; the cost of any required upgrade of information technology assets and the implementation of new policies and procedures to prevent a reoccurrence of the breach.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions.  Management considers an accounting estimate or assumption critical if:

·         the nature of the estimates or assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and

·         the impact of the estimates and assumptions on financial condition or operating performance is material.

Management has discussed the development and selection of its critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.  Management believes the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements are appropriate and are not reasonably likely to change in the future.  However, since these estimates require assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, they bear the risk of change.  If actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition.  Please refer to Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for further information regarding significant accounting policies that impact us.  There have been no material changes to these policies in 2014.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

    This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking” statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When the company uses words such as “may,” “will,” “intend,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate” or similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters, it is making forward-looking statements. In particular, these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those relating to the company’s opportunities to acquire, develop or sell properties; the company’s ability to close its anticipated acquisitions, investments or dispositions on currently anticipated terms, or within currently anticipated timeframes; the expected performance of the company’s operators/tenants and properties; the company’s expected occupancy rates; the company’s ability to declare and to make distributions to shareholders; the company’s investment and financing opportunities and plans; the company’s continued qualification as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); the company’s ability to access capital markets or other sources of funds; and the company’s ability to meet its earnings guidance. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from the company’s expectations discussed in the forward-looking statements. This may be a result of various factors, including, but not limited to: the status of the economy; the status of capital markets, including availability and cost of capital; issues facing the health care industry, including compliance with, and changes to, regulations and payment policies, responding to government investigations and punitive settlements and operators’/tenants’ difficulty in cost-

effectively obtaining and maintaining adequate liability and other insurance; changes in financing terms; competition within the health care, seniors housing and life science industries; negative developments in the operating results or financial condition of operators/tenants, including, but not limited to, their ability to pay rent and repay loans; the company’s ability to transition or sell properties with profitable results; the failure to make new investments or acquisitions as and when anticipated; natural disasters and other acts of God affecting the company’s properties; the company’s ability to re-lease space at similar rates as vacancies occur; the company’s ability to timely reinvest sale proceeds at similar rates to assets sold; operator/tenant or joint venture partner bankruptcies or insolvencies; the cooperation of joint venture partners; government regulations affecting Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates and operational requirements; liability or contract claims by or against operators/tenants; unanticipated difficulties and/or expenditures relating to future investments or acquisitions; environmental laws affecting the company’s properties; changes in rules or practices governing the company’s financial reporting; the movement of U.S. and foreign currency exchange rates; the company’s ability to maintain its qualification as a REIT; and key management personnel recruitment and retention.  Other important factors are identified in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, including factors identified under the headings “Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Finally, the company undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements.

  

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

     We are exposed to various market risks, including the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We seek to mitigate the underlying foreign currency exposures with gains and losses on derivative contracts hedging these exposures.  We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the terms of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings to the extent possible. We may or may not elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. These decisions are principally based on our policy to match our variable rate investments with comparable borrowings, but are also based on the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates. This section is presented to provide a discussion of the risks associated with potential fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

      We historically borrow on our primary unsecured credit facility to acquire, construct or make loans relating to health care and seniors housing properties. Then, as market conditions dictate, we will issue equity or long-term fixed rate debt to repay the borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities.  We are subject to risks associated with debt financing, including the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of current indebtedness. The majority of our borrowings were completed under indentures or contractual agreements that limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, in the event that we are unable to raise additional equity or borrow money because of these limitations, our ability to acquire additional properties may be limited.

      A change in interest rates will not affect the interest expense associated with our fixed rate debt. Interest rate changes, however, will affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt. Changes in the interest rate environment upon maturity of this fixed rate debt could have an effect on our future cash flows and earnings, depending on whether the debt is replaced with other fixed rate debt, variable rate debt or equity or repaid by the sale of assets. To illustrate the impact of changes in the interest rate markets, we performed a sensitivity analysis on our fixed rate debt instruments whereby we modeled the change in net present values arising from a hypothetical 1% increase in interest rates to determine the instruments’ change in fair value. The following table summarizes the analysis performed as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

     Our variable rate debt, including our unsecured credit facilities, is reflected at fair value. At September 30, 2014, we had $993,435,000 outstanding under our variable rate debt. Assuming no changes in outstanding balances, a 1% increase in interest rates would result in increased annual interest expense of $9,934,000.  At December 31, 2013, we had $1,089,362,000 outstanding under our variable rate debt.  Assuming no changes in outstanding balances, a 1% increase in interest rates would have resulted in increased annual interest expense of $10,894,000.

     We are subject to currency fluctuations that may, from time to time, affect our financial condition and results of operations. Increases or decreases in the value of the Canadian Dollar or Pounds Sterling relative to the U.S. Dollar impact the amount of net income we earn from our investments in Canada and the United Kingdom. Based solely on our results for the three months ended September 30, 2014, if these exchange rates were to increase or decrease by 100 basis points, our net income from these investments would decrease or increase, as applicable, by less than $1,000,000 annualized.  We seek to mitigate these underlying foreign currency exposures with non-U.S. denominated borrowings and gains and losses on derivative contracts hedging these exposures.  If we increase our international presence through investments in, or acquisitions or development of, seniors housing and health care properties outside the U.S., we may also decide to transact additional business or borrow funds in currencies other than the U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars or Pounds Sterling. To illustrate the impact of changes in foreign currency markets, we performed a sensitivity analysis on our derivative portfolio whereby we modeled the change in net present values arising from a hypothetical 1% increase in foreign currency exchange rates to determine the instruments’ change in fair value.  The following table summarizes the results of the analysis performed (dollars in thousands):

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

     Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file with or submit to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. No changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

  

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
