Lease Accounting

(7) Lease Accounting

As Lessor:

We lease most of our operating properties to customers under agreements that are typically classified as operating leases (two of our leases are accounted for as financing arrangements as discussed in Note 2-Relationship with Universal Health Services, Inc. and Related Party Transactions). We recognize the total minimum lease payments provided for under the operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Generally, under the terms of our leases, the majority of our rental expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance are recovered from our customers. We record amounts reimbursed by customers in the period that the applicable expenses are incurred, which is generally ratably throughout the term of the lease. We have elected the package of practical expedients that allows lessors to not separate lease and non-lease components by class of underlying asset. This practical expedient allowed us to not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“tenant reimbursements”) from the associated rental revenue if certain criteria were met. We assessed these criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental revenue and the associated tenant reimbursements are the same, and for the leases that qualify as operating leases, we accounted for and presented rental revenue and tenant reimbursements as a single component under Lease revenue in our consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

The components of the “Lease revenue – UHS facilities” and “Lease revenue – Non-related parties” captions for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 are disaggregated below (in thousands). Base rents are primarily stated rent amounts provided for under the leases that are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Bonus rents and tenant reimbursements represent amounts where tenants are contractually obligated to pay an amount that is variable in nature.

As Lessee:

We are the lessee with various third parties, including subsidiaries of UHS, in connection with ground leases for land at fifteen of our consolidated properties. Our right-of-use land assets represent our right to use the land for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the leases. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recognized upon adoption of Topic 842 based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We utilized our estimated incremental borrowing rate, which was derived from information available as of January 1, 2019, or the commencement date of the ground lease, whichever is later, in determining the present value of lease payments for active leases on that date. A right-of-use asset and lease liability are not recognized for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, as these short-term leases are accounted for similarly to previous guidance for operating leases. We do not currently have any ground leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. As of March 31, 2025, our condensed consolidated balance sheet includes right-of-use land assets of approximately $10.9 million and ground lease liabilities of approximately $10.9 million.

Disclosures Related to Certain Hospital Facilities:

Chicago, Illinois - Land: Demolition of the former hospital was completed during 2023.

Evansville, Indiana - Specialty Facility: The facility has been vacant since 2019.

The aggregate operating expenses incurred by us in connection with these properties were $170,000 during the first quarter of 2025 and $178,000 during the first quarter of 2024.

We continue to market the Chicago, Illinois, and Evansville, Indiana properties to third parties. Future operating expenses related to these properties will be incurred by us during the time they remain owned and unleased.
