CareTrust REIT, Inc. (Nasdaq:CTRE) today reported operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as well as other recent events.

• 95% of contractual rents collected;

Key Operating Metrics

CareTrust’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Dave Sedgwick, commented on the Company’s collections amid continuing post-COVID disruptions across the industry in the quarter. “We’re pleased to report collection of 95% of contractual rents in the quarter, and that April rent came in at 93% without any security deposit application, as most of our operators are making the necessary moves to manage through the current headwinds,” he said. Mr. Sedgwick noted that the effects of a historically tight labor market, tapering of stimulus funds, and a lingering pandemic continue to present an operating environment where both the strengths and weaknesses of operators are magnified. “We are as committed as ever to support and to grow with the best-in-class operators in skilled nursing, seniors housing, and now behavioral health – many of whom are our operating partners already,” he added.

Looking at the occupancy in the quarter, Mr. Sedgwick reported that CareTrust’s skilled nursing portfolio occupancy held stable in the quarter over Q4 2021. As for seniors housing occupancy, he added, “After being flat for most of 2021 we are pleased to report a 100 bps increase in seniors housing in the quarter over Q4 2021.”

Portfolio Optimization

Mr. Sedgwick also reported on the Company’s previously announced plan to optimize its portfolio in 2022. “The current environment continues to provide an excellent opportunity to strengthen our portfolio through a combination of disciplined growth, key dispositions and re-tenanting and repositioning of assets,” he said. In February, the Company announced a comprehensive review and repositioning plan for 2022, affecting 32 of CareTrust’s 228 assets, and representing approximately 10% of contractual cash rents as of December 31, 2021. “27 of the 32 assets are now actively on the market,” he said.

Mr. Sedgwick also reported significant progress on CareTrust's previously announced intention to enter the behavioral health asset class. “We are pleased to announce that, since our last call, we have reached agreement with Landmark Recovery to convert three of our underperforming seniors housing facilities into residential addiction recovery centers,” he said, noting that the three properties are coming from the 32 assets included in CareTrust’s repositioning plan. “The behavioral space presents the company with a new and high-demand asset class where we can reposition certain existing assets in a way that fits our mission of matching great operators with great opportunities,” he said.

Investing in Growth

In addition to optimizing the portfolio in 2022, Mr. Sedgwick stated that the Company is also making key personnel changes aimed at capturing additional growth opportunities and further optimizing outcomes. “We are pleased to announce that industry veteran Scott Grossman has joined CareTrust as the Company’s Vice President of Asset Management,” said Mr. Sedgwick. He commented that Mr. Grossman’s experience in skilled nursing and seniors housing asset management brings a new level of large REIT expertise and leadership to that function at CareTrust. In addition, Mr. Sedgwick explained, “Scott heading up Asset Management allows us to strategically redeploy some key internal talent from portfolio management work to focusing on building the Company’s operator and investment pipelines, with an emphasis on sourcing off-market deals.”

Investments in the Quarter

During the quarter, CareTrust acquired a 155-bed skilled nursing facility in Ennis, Texas for a purchase price of $8.9 million, inclusive of transaction costs. The facility was added to the existing master lease with affiliates of Eduro Healthcare, who took over operations on February 1, 2022. Annual cash rent under the Eduro master lease increased by approximately $815,000 with CPI-based annual rent escalators. The initial term of Eduro's master lease with CareTrust was also extended by four years in connection with the transaction. The acquisition was funded using cash on hand.

In March 2022, CareTrust acquired a skilled nursing campus in Decatur, Illinois with 95 licensed skilled nursing beds, 46 assisted living units and five independent living units for a purchase price of $13.1 million, inclusive of transaction costs and capital expenditure commitments. The facility was added to the existing master lease with affiliates of WLC Management Firm, LLC, who took over operations on March 1, 2022. Annual cash rent under the WLC master lease increased by approximately $1.24 million with CPI-based annual rent escalators. The acquisition was funded using CareTrust's $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility.

Commenting on the investment pipeline, Mark Lamb, CareTrust’s Chief Investment Officer, said, “We’re encouraged by the pickup in deal flow crossing our desk.” Mr. Lamb added, “We are excited by the new operators and opportunities that we are currently seeing from our bread and butter skilled nursing and seniors housing acquisitions, potential debt investments from the planned debt partnership we announced last quarter and from the expansion of our investment box to include behavioral health.”

Guidance Discussion

Chief Financial Officer Bill Wagner commented on issuing guidance at this stage in CareTrust's asset management plan. “While progress has been made on the disposition strategy laid out last quarter, we need more visibility into the execution of dispositions and possible re-tenanting work over the coming months before issuing guidance for this year.”

Financial Results for Quarter Ended March 31, 2022

Mr. Wagner reported that, for the first quarter, CareTrust reported a net loss of $43.3 million, or $(0.45) per diluted weighted-average common share, normalized FFO of $35.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted weighted-average common share, and normalized FAD of $37.9 million, or $0.39 per diluted weighted-average common share.

Mr. Wagner reported that the quarter’s GAAP financial results were impacted by the Company’s asset disposition plan and the applicable facilities meeting the criteria to be classified as held for sale. “These changes resulted in total impairments of $59.7 million,” he stated. Mr. Wagner further stated, “We view these adjustments as a necessary part of our overall asset management plan to sell or reposition certain facilities to strengthen our growth platform moving forward.”

Liquidity

As of quarter end, CareTrust reported net debt-to-annualized normalized run rate EBITDA of 3.9x, which is under the Company's target leverage range of 4.0x to 5.0x, and a net debt-to-enterprise value of approximately 26.6%. Mr. Wagner stated that as of today, the Company had approximately $105 million outstanding on its $600 million revolving credit line, with no scheduled debt maturities prior to 2024. He also disclosed that CareTrust currently has $22 million in cash on hand. He further noted that the Company currently has approximately $476.5 million in available authorization remaining on its at-the-market equity program. "With substantial availability on our revolver, and equity markets readily accessible to us at present, we continue to have a wide range of capital options for funding our opportunistic growth strategy," said Mr. Wagner.

Dividend Increased

During the quarter, CareTrust increased its quarterly dividend from $0.265 to $0.275 per common share. On an annualized basis, the payout ratio was approximately 74% based on first quarter 2022 normalized FFO, and 71% based on normalized FAD.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA represents net income before interest expense (including amortization of deferred financing costs), amortization of stock-based compensation, and depreciation and amortization. Normalized EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the Company does not consider indicative of core operating performance, such as recovery of previously reversed rent, lease termination revenue, property operating expenses, gains or losses from dispositions of real estate, real estate impairment charges, provision for loan losses, non-routine transaction costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, and provision for doubtful accounts and lease restructuring, as applicable. EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA do not represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in evaluating the Company’s liquidity or operating performance. EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA do not purport to be indicative of cash available to fund future cash requirements, including the Company’s ability to fund capital expenditures or make payments on its indebtedness. Further, the Company’s computation of EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA reported by other REITs.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), and Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation except on land, such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT that uses historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. Thus, Nareit created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income, as defined by GAAP.

FFO is defined by Nareit as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from dispositions of real estate investments, real estate depreciation and amortization and real estate impairment charges, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company computes FFO in accordance with Nareit’s definition.

FAD is defined as FFO excluding noncash income and expenses, such as amortization of stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred financing fees and the effects of straight-line rent. The Company considers FAD to be a useful supplemental measure to evaluate the Company’s operating results excluding these income and expense items to help investors, analysts and other interested parties compare the operating performance of the Company between periods or as compared to other companies on a more consistent basis.

In addition, the Company reports Normalized FFO and Normalized FAD, which adjust FFO and FAD for certain revenue and expense items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its ongoing operating results, such as provision for loan losses, provision for doubtful accounts and lease restructuring, loss on extinguishment of debt, recovery of previously reversed rent, lease termination revenue and property operating expenses. By excluding these items, investors, analysts and our management can compare Normalized FFO and Normalized FAD between periods more consistently.

While FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD are relevant and widely-used measures of operating performance among REITs, they do not represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in evaluating the Company’s liquidity or operating performance. FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD do not purport to be indicative of cash available to fund future cash requirements.

Further, the Company’s computation of FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD may not be comparable to FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD reported by other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition or define FAD differently than the Company does.

The Company believes that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. The Company also believes that the use of EBITDA, Normalized EBITDA, FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among investors and makes comparisons of operating results among such companies more meaningful. The Company considers EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA useful in understanding the Company’s operating results independent of its capital structure, indebtedness and other charges that are not indicative of its ongoing results, thereby allowing for a more meaningful comparison of operating performance between periods and against other REITs. The Company considers FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD to be useful measures for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions, impairment charges and real estate depreciation and amortization, and, for FAD and Normalized FAD, by excluding noncash income and expenses such as amortization of stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred financing fees, and the effects of straight-line rent, FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD can help investors compare the Company’s operating performance between periods and to other REITs.
