Fair Value of Financial Instruments

7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We have various assets and liabilities that are considered financial instruments. We estimate that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. We estimate the fair value of our interest and rent receivables using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar receivables would be made to others with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of our mortgage loans and other loans are estimated by using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. We determine the fair value of our senior notes using Level 2 inputs such as quotes from securities dealers and market makers. We estimate the fair value of our revolving credit facility and term loans using Level 2 inputs based on the present value of future payments, discounted at a rate which we consider appropriate for such debt.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature, and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement of such fair value amounts may not be a prudent management decision.

The following table summarizes fair value estimates for our financial instruments (in thousands):

Excludes the convertible loan portion of our investment in PHP Holdings made in May 2023 and the acquisition loan made in May 2020 related to our investment in the international joint venture, along with the related subsequent investment in the real estate of three hospitals in Colombia, as these assets are accounted for under the fair value option method, as noted below.

Includes $14.0 million and $7.9 million of mortgage loans, $390.3 million and $315.5 million of loans (including a shareholder loan) included in investments in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures, $45.4 million and $39.7 million of loans that are part of our investments in unconsolidated operating entities, and $142.7 million and $104.0 million of other loans at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Our equity investment and related loan to the international joint venture, our loan investment in the real estate of three hospitals operated by subsidiaries of the international joint venture in Colombia, and our investment in PHP Holdings are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as we elected to account for these investments using the fair value option at the point of initial investment. We elected to account for these investments at fair value due to the size of the investments and because we believed this method was more reflective of current values.

At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the amounts recorded under the fair value option method were as follows (in thousands):

Investments in unconsolidated operating entities/Other loans

Our loans to the international joint venture and its subsidiaries are recorded at fair value by discounting the estimated future contractual cash flows using a credit-adjusted rate of return, which is derived from market rates of return on similar loans with similar credit quality and remaining maturity. Our equity investment in the international joint venture and our investment in PHP Holdings (as of December 31, 2024 only) are recorded at fair value by using a market approach (for our equity investment in the international joint venture) and a market approach based on the agreed upon price in the transaction (for our investment in PHP Holdings), which requires significant estimates of our investee, such as projected revenue, expenses, and working capital, and appropriate consideration of the underlying risk profile of the forecasted assumptions associated with the investee. We classify our valuations of these investments as Level 3, as we use certain unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the fair value

measurement, and the valuations require management judgment due to the absence of quoted market prices. For the market approach model used for our investment in PHP Holdings (as of December 31, 2024 only), our unobservable inputs included purchase price adjustments related to expected balance sheet values at the time of the transaction close, and an adjustment for a marketability discount ("DLOM") of 14.2%. In regard to the underlying projections used in the discounted cash flow model, such projections are provided by the investees. However, we may modify such projections as needed based on our review and analysis of historical results, meetings with key members of management, and our understanding of trends and developments within the healthcare industry.

The sale of our investment in PHP Holdings closed on July 1, 2025, and we received cash proceeds of $2.3 million as previously discussed in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, we recorded an unfavorable fair value adjustment down to a value of $2.3 million at June 30, 2025.

In the first six months of 2025, we recorded a net unfavorable adjustment to the investments accounted for under the fair value option method of approximately $164 million, primarily related to our investment in three hospitals in Colombia and our investment in PHP Holdings as further discussed in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. In the first half of 2024, we recorded a net unfavorable adjustment to the investments accounted for under the fair value option method of approximately $585 million, primarily related to the loan to the international joint venture of $225 million (see further discussion below under "Impairment and Fair Value Adjustments of Non-Real Estate Investments") and our investment in PHP Holdings of $360 million.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we have assets and liabilities that are measured, from time-to-time, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, such as for impairment purposes of our real estate, financial instruments, and for certain equity investments without a readily determinable fair value.

Impairment and Fair Value Adjustments of Non-Real Estate Investments

Prior to the global settlement in September 2024 (as described in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements) in which our claims were released, our non-real estate investments in Steward and related affiliates included our 9.9% equity investment, working capital and other secured loans, and a loan made to a Steward affiliate in 2021, proceeds of which were used to redeem a similarly sized convertible loan held by Steward’s former private equity sponsor. In addition, the loan to the international joint venture was collateralized by the equity of Steward held by an investor in both Steward and the international joint venture. To assess recovery of these investments in the 2024 first quarter, we performed a valuation of Steward’s business at March 31, 2024, with assistance from a third-party, independent valuation firm. The valuation utilized the cost, market, and income approaches. The fair value analysis was performed under a non-going concern, orderly liquidation premise of value and assumed normal exposure to market participants at that time. We utilized this premise of value due to Steward’s financial distress and subsequent filing of bankruptcy. The valuation approaches used Level 3 inputs, and such approaches were based on the financial performance of the Steward assets. For profitable hospitals, Level 3 inputs included a weighted average EBITDA multiple of 6.48x from a selected range of 5x to 7x in reference to comparable transactions. We also used a weighted average discount rate of 15.03% from a selected range of 15% to 16%. For unprofitable hospitals, Level 3 inputs included a weighted average net revenue multiple of 0.275x from a selected range of 0.25x to 0.30x in reference to comparable transactions. We also considered the reported book values inclusive of various adjustments for unprofitable hospitals. After reducing the derived fair value of Steward's business for Steward's secured debt and their working capital deficit, we arrived at only a nominal remaining value that could not support the carrying value of the loan to a Steward affiliate from 2021 or our remaining 9.9% equity investment. In addition, the value of the investor's share of the remaining 90.1% of Steward's equity that collateralized the loan to the international joint venture was deemed insufficient to support recovery of this investment. As a result, we recorded impairment charges and negative fair value adjustments in the 2024 first quarter, as discussed further in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of Real Estate Investments

2025 Activity

See the Prospect subheading under "Leasing Operations (Lessor)" in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion around the use of fair value and related assumptions in the impairment of our real estate investments.

2024 Activity

In the 2024 second quarter, we recognized approximately $500 million of real estate impairment charges, primarily involving the eight Massachusetts properties in the Macquarie partnership. In our assessment, we first made a comparison of the carrying value of our real estate to projected undiscounted cash flows. For those properties in which the carrying value was not deemed recoverable, we recorded an impairment charge to the extent our carrying value was greater than its estimated fair value. In estimating fair value

for these properties, we, along with assistance from a third-party, independent valuation firm, used a combination of cost, market, and income approaches using Level 3 inputs. The cost approach used comparable sales to value the land and cost manuals to value the improvements. The value derived from the market approach was based on sale prices of similar properties. For the income approach, we divided the expected operating income (i.e. revenue less expenses, if any) from the property by a market capitalization rate (range from 7% to 10%). Our share of the real estate impairment charge in the Macquarie partnership exceeded the remaining equity amount in the joint venture, which resulted in a write down of our equity interest to zero and such charge is reflected in the "Earnings (loss) from equity interests" line on the condensed consolidated statements of net income.
