SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business Overview

Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (the ‘‘Company’’, ‘‘we’’, ‘‘our’’) was organized in the State of Maryland on March 28, 2014. The Company is a fully-integrated healthcare real estate company that owns and acquires real estate properties that are leased to hospitals, doctors, healthcare systems or other healthcare service providers. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had investments of approximately $1.05 billion in 191 real estate properties (including a portion of one property accounted for as a sales-type lease with a gross amount totaling approximately $3.0 million and one property classified as an asset held for sale with a gross amount totaling approximately $1.1 million (see Note 10 – Other Assets, net and Note 4 – Real Estate Acquisitions and Dispositions, respectively)). The properties are located in 34 states, totaling approximately 4.2 million square feet in the aggregate and were approximately 91.0% leased at September 30, 2023 with a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 7.1 years. Any references to square footage, property count, or occupancy percentages, and any amounts derived from these values in these notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, are outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm's review.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. This interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2023. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may materially differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents includes short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. Restricted cash consists of amounts held by the lender of our mortgage note payable to provide for future real estate tax, insurance expenditures and tenant improvements related to one property. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash:


	Balance as of September 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2023		2022
Cash and cash equivalents	$	3,885	$	2,656
Restricted cash	1,048		682
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	4,933	$	3,338

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company and two subsidiaries have also elected for those

subsidiaries to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"), which are subject to federal and state income taxes. No provision has been made for federal income taxes for the REIT; however, the Company has recorded income tax expense or benefit for the TRSs to the extent applicable. The Company also evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and will record valuation allowances if it is determined that more likely than not the asset will not be recovered. The Company intends at all times to qualify as a REIT under the Code. The Company must distribute at least 90% per annum of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP) and meet other requirements to continue to qualify as a REIT.
