If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

 

 

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

Regional Health Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) has determined that it is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 (the “Quarterly Report”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense because, for the reasons discussed below, additional time is needed to finalize the Quarterly Report and furnish the XBRL Interactive Data File exhibits required by Item 601(b)(101) of Regulation S-K.

 

On February 15, 2018, the Company entered into a debt refinancing (“Pinecone Credit Facility”) with Pinecone Realty Partners II, LLC (“Pinecone”), with an aggregate principal amount of $16.25 million, which refinanced existing mortgage debt in an aggregate amount of $8.7 million on three skilled nursing properties. The Company is currently negotiating with Pinecone to obtain a waiver of a debt covenant fixed coverage ratio violation under the Pinecone Credit Facility, with respect to the quarter ended March 31, 2018, and to enter into a forbearance agreement to address such violation and other events of default  under such facility. The Company’s negotiations are ongoing and will impact the Company’s conclusion with respect to whether there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern (as such term is used in FASB Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic No. 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements–Going Concern ) and the related disclosures to be included in the Quarterly Report. The Company is actively working to complete these negotiations and its liquidity assessment and intends to file the Quarterly Report  within the grace period prescribed in Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  

 

 

 

PART IV — OTHER INFORMATION

 

 

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

Interest Expense, Net —Interest expense increased by $0.2 million, or 23.5%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared with $1.0 million for the same period in 2017. The increase is mainly due the net increase of debt principal year over year of approximately $6.3 million and approximately $1.0 million in capitalized deferred financing. The $16.25 million Pinecone

---

Credit Facility increased debt by approximately $7.5 million from Febru ary 15, 2018, which was partially offset by the repayment of $6.7 million in convertible debt in the prior year and $1.5 million repayment of convertible debt during the current quarter. The increase in interest is approximately $0.1 million for amortizati on of deferred financing and approximately $0.1 million due to interest.

Loss from Discontinued Operations —The loss from discontinued operations decreased by $0.3 million, or 86.7%, to $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared with $0.4 million for the same period in 2017. The decrease is primarily due to lower bad debt expense, professional and general legal expenses and collection activity expenses.

Provision for doubtful accounts —On April 24, 2018, the Company received written notices from five of its facility tenants stating that: (i) due to current business conditions, the tenants can no longer operate the five facilities of the Company located in Ohio (collectively, the “Ohio Facilities”); and (ii) each such tenant will surrender the possession of the applicable Ohio Facility to the Company on June 30, 2018. Each such tenant: (a) is affiliated with Beacon Health Management LLC; and (b) operates the applicable Ohio Facility under a separate Sublease Agreement with the Company dated August 1, 2015 (collectively, the “Sublease Agreements”). The provisions of each of the Sublease Agreements provide for a lease term which expires in 2025. Consequently, the Company has recorded a $1.5 million provision.

In addition, the Company has also recorded an allowance of approximately $0.5 million on a $3.0 million promissory note issued to the Company in connection with its sale in October 2016 of nine facilities in Arkansas to Skyline Healthcare LLC.
