The Company’s joint venture interest in HCRMC is accounted for using the equity method and results in an elimination of DFL income proportional to HCP’s ownership in HCRMC. The elimination of the respective proportional lease expense at the HCRMC level in substance resulted in $15 million and $30 million of DFL income that was recharacterized to the Company’s share of earnings from HCRMC (equity income from unconsolidated joint ventures) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. Beginning in January 2016, income will be recognized only if cash distributions are received from HCRMC; as a result, the Company no longer recharacterizes (eliminates) its proportional ownership share of income from DFLs to equity income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures.

HCRMC. The Company concluded that its equity investment in HCRMC was other-than-temporarily impaired as of December 31, 2014, September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015 and recorded impairment charges of $36 million, $27 million and $19 million, respectively. Beginning in January 2016, equity income is recognized only if cash distributions are received from HCRMC (see Notes 1 and 5).

MBK JVs. On March 30, 2015, the Company and MBK Senior Living (“MBK”), a subsidiary of Mitsui & Co. Ltd, formed a new RIDEA joint venture (“MBK JV”) that owns three senior housing facilities with the Company and MBK each owning a 50% equity interest. MBK manages these communities on behalf of the joint venture. The Company contributed $27 million of cash and MBK contributed the three senior housing facilities with a fair value of $126 million, which were encumbered by $78 million of mortgage debt at closing.

On September 25, 2015, the Company and MBK formed a new RIDEA joint venture (“MBK Development JV”), which acquired a $3 million parcel of land for the purpose of developing a 74-unit class A senior housing facility in Santa Rosa, California. The parcel of land is located adjacent to the Oakmont Gardens independent living facility currently owned and operated by the MBK JV.
