Impairments of Real Estate

During the third quarter 2017, the Company determined that 11 underperforming senior housing triple-net assets that are candidates for potential future sale were impaired. Accordingly, the Company wrote-down the carrying amount of these 11 assets to their fair value, which resulted in an aggregate impairment charge of $23 million. The fair value of the assets was based on forecasted sales prices which are considered to be Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

Casualty-Related Losses

As a result of Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma during the third quarter of 2017, the Company recorded an estimated $11 million of casualty-related losses, net of a small insurance recovery. The losses are comprised of $6 million of property damage and (ii) $5 million of other associated costs, including storm preparation, clean up, relocation and other costs. Of the total $11 million casualty losses incurred, $10 million was recorded in Other income (expense), net, and $1 million was recorded in Equity income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures as it relates to casualty losses for properties owned by certain of our unconsolidated joint ventures. In addition, the Company recorded a $2 million deferred tax benefit associated with the casualty-related losses.
