- Basis of Presentation
Organization and Business
Sonida Senior Living, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or “Sonida”), is a leading owner, operator and investor in independent living, assisted living and memory care communities and services for senior adults in the United States in terms of resident capacity. The Company owns, operates, manages and invests in senior housing communities throughout the United States. As of September 30, 2025, the Company owned, managed or invested in 97 senior housing communities in 20 states with an aggregate capacity of approximately 10,250 residents 1, including 84 owned senior housing communities (including four owned through joint venture investments in consolidated entities andfour owned through a joint venture investment in an unconsolidated entity) and 13 communities that the Company manages on behalf of a third-party.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Sonida Senior Living, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company reports investments in unconsolidated entities whose operating and financial policies it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting.
The Company evaluates its potential variable interest entity (“VIE”) relationships under certain criteria as provided for in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation(“ASC 810”). ASC 810 broadly defines a VIE as an entity with one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity's activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity's activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests, and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. The Company performs this evaluation on an ongoing basis and consolidates any VIEs for which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, as determined by the Company's power to direct the VIEs activities and the obligation to absorb its losses or the right to receive its benefits, which are potentially significant to the VIE. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has a joint venture, Stone JV LLC (“Stone JV”), which is treated as an unconsolidated entity. See “Note 3–Investments, Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale.”
As of September 30, 2025, the Company was a 51% owner intwo joint ventures (collectively, the “Palatine JVs”) with affiliates of Palatine Capital Partners. The Company has evaluated its investment in the Palatine JVs under ASC 810. The Company has determined that it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and is the primary beneficiary of the VIE in accordance with ASC 810. Accordingly, the Company has consolidated the activity of the Palatine JVs into its consolidated financial statements for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Interim Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, including normal recurring items, necessary to present fairly our condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and our condensed consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
1 Capacity disclosures in these footnotes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are outside the scope of our independent registered accounting firm’s review.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts previously reflected in the prior year condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to our September 30, 2025 presentation. The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 reflects reclassifying transaction, transition and restructuring costs from “General and administrative expense” to “Transaction, transition and restructuring costs.”
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These estimates include such items related to the accounting for: income taxes, including assessments of probabilities of realization of income tax benefits; other contingencies; allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable; impairment of long-lived assets, including applicable cash flow projections, holding periods and fair value evaluations; stock-based compensation; fair values of assets and liabilities acquired in asset acquisitions, fair values of our equity method investments; and depreciation and amortization, including determination of estimated useful lives. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. The Company has deposits in banks that exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. Management believes that credit risk related to these deposits is minimal. Restricted cash consists of reserve accounts for property insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures, derivatives, and debt service required by certain loan agreements. In addition, restricted cash includes escrowed deposits and deposits required by certain counterparties as collateral pursuant to letters of credit which must remain so long as the letters of credit are outstanding, which are subject to renewal annually.
The following table sets forth our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash (in thousands):
| September 30,2025 | December 31,2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | $16,961 | $16,992 |
| Restricted cash: | ||
| Property tax and insurance reserves | 6,016 | 6,156 |
| Lender reserves | 3,522 | 6,013 |
| Capital expenditures reserves | 5,897 | 6,210 |
| Deposits pursuant to outstanding letters of credit | 3,524 | 3,524 |
| Other reserves | — | 192 |
| Total restricted cash | 18,959 | 22,095 |
| Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $35,920 | $39,087 |
Long-Lived Assets
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment to determine if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired or that the depreciation period may need to be changed. The Company considers internal factors such as net operating losses along with external factors relating to each asset, including contract changes, local market developments, and other publicly available information to determine whether impairment indicators exist.
If an indicator of impairment is identified, recoverability of an asset group is assessed by comparing its carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group through operation or disposition, calculated utilizing the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. If this comparison indicates that the carrying amount of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company estimates fair value of the asset group and records an impairment loss when the carrying amount exceeds fair value. The Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $4.7 million to its “Property and equipment, net” during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, which related toone owned community. See “Note 3–Investments, Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale.” There wereno impairments on long-lived assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
In evaluating our long-lived assets for impairment, we undergo continuous evaluations of property-level performance and real estate trends, and management makes several estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the projected date of disposition, estimated sales price, and future cash flows of each property during our estimated holding period. If our analysis or assumptions regarding the projected cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of our properties change, we incur additional costs and expenses during the holding period, or our expected hold periods change, we may incur future impairment losses. See “Note 4–Property and Equipment, net.”
Long-lived assets or disposal groups are classified as held for sale when management commits to a plan to sell the asset, the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition, and a sale is probable within one year after the end of the applicable reporting period. Upon classification, the related assets and liabilities are presented separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Once the Company has classified assets as held for sale, it no longer recognizes depreciation on the assets.
Disposal groups are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less costs to sell, and depreciation and amortization cease. The Company reassesses assets classified as held for sale each reporting period to ensure they continue to meet the held-for-sale criteria and are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value less estimated disposal costs. Fair values are typically estimated using market analysis, industry trends, and recent comparable sales. See “Note 3–Investments, Acquisitionsand Assets Held for Sale.”
Leases
We determine if a contract contains a lease at its inception based on whether or not the Company has the right to control the asset during the contract period and other facts and circumstances. We are the lessee in a lease contract when we obtain the right to control the asset. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and are included in other assets, netinour condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease and are included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. When determining the lease term, we include renewal or termination options that we are reasonably certain to exercise. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. As the rates implicit in our leases are not readily determinable, we use our local incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. When our contracts contain lease and non-lease components, we account for both components as a single lease component.
Acquisitions
We make certain judgments to determine whether a transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition. These judgments include the assessment of the inputs, processes, and outputs associated with an acquired set of activities and whether the fair value of total assets acquired is concentrated to a single identifiable asset or group of similar assets. We account for a transaction as a business combination when the assets acquired include inputs and one or more substantive processes that, together, significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs and the total fair value of the assets acquired are not concentrated to a single identifiable asset or group of similar assets. Otherwise, we account for the transaction as an asset acquisition.
Upon the acquisition of new communities accounted for as an acquisition of assets, we recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, measured at their relative fair values using Level 3 inputs at the date of acquisition including estimates of appropriate discount rates and capitalization rate once we have determined the fair value of each of these assets and liabilities. Relative fair values may be based on appraisals, internal analyses of recently acquired and existing comparable properties in the Company’s portfolio, other market data, and internal marketing and leasing activities. The acquisition date is the date on which we obtain control of the real estate property. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed consist of land, inclusive of associated rights, buildings, assumed debt, and identified intangible assets and liabilities. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values of acquired properties are recorded based on the net present value of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) Sonida’s estimate of the fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place lease measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable terms of the leases (including the below-market fixed-rate renewal period, if applicable). Favorable above-market in-place leases represent the value of the contractual monthly rental payments that are more than the current market rent at communities as acquired in recent acquisitions.
Favorable above-market in-place leases are amortized to deprec iation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining lease terms and are included in intangible assets, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unfavorable below-market in-place leases represent the value of the contractual monthly rental payments that are less than the current market rent at communities as acquired in recent acquisitions. Unfavorable below-market in-place leases are amortized to resident revenue on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining lease terms and are included in other long-term liabilities on the accom panying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Investment in Unconsolidated Entities
The Company reports investments in unconsolidated entities that it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. The initial carrying amount of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the investment. The Company's reported share of earnings from an unconsolidated entity is adjusted for the impact, if any, of basis differences between its carrying amount of the equity investment and its share of the investment’s underlying assets. Distributions received from an investee are recognized as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
The Company evaluates the realization of its investments in ventures accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate that the Company's investments are other than temporarily impaired. A current fair value of an investment that is less than its carrying amount may indicate a loss in value of the investment. If the Company determines that an equity method investment is other than temporarily impaired, it is recorded at its fair value with an impairment charge recognized for the difference between its carrying amount and fair value.
Revenue Recognition
Resident revenue consists of fees for basic housing and certain support services and fees associated with additional housing and expanded support requirements such as assisted living care, memory care, and ancillary services. Basic housing and certain support services revenue is recorded when services are rendered, and amounts billed are due from residents in the period in which the rental and other services are provided. Residency agreements are generally short term in nature with durations of one year or less and are typically terminable by either party, under certain circumstances, upon 30 days’ notice, unless state law provides otherwise, with resident fees billed monthly in advance. Revenue for certain ancillary services is recognized as services are provided, and includes fees for services such as medication management, daily living activities, beautician/barber, laundry, television, guest meals, pets, and parking, which are generally billed monthly in arrears.
The Company’s senior housing communities have residency agreements that generally require the resident to pay a community fee and other amounts prior to moving into the community, which are initially recorded by the Company as deferred income. Community fees are recognized evenly over the term of the residency agreements, which are generally 12 months. The Company had contract liabilities for deferred fees paid by its residents prior to the month housing and support services were to be provided totaling $7.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, which is reported as deferred income within current liabilities of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, $5.3 million of deferred revenue has been recognized from the year ended December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, $4.0 million of deferred revenue was recognized from the year ended December 31, 2023.
Revenues from Medicaid programs accounted for 7.4% and 9.9% of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Revenues from the Medicaid program accounted for approximately 7.9% and 10.8% of the Company’s revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Resident revenues for Medicaid residents were recorded at the reimbursement rates as the rates were set prospectively by the applicable state upon the filing of an annual cost report.
Laws and regulations governing the Medicaid program are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing that would have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements. While no such regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicaid program.
The Company has management agreements whereby it manages certain communities on behalf of third-party owners and certain community investments under contracts that provide for periodic management fee payments to the Company. The Company has determined that all community management activities are a single performance obligation, which is satisfied over time as the services are rendered. Such revenue is included in “management fees” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company is also reimbursed by the owners of the communities for costs incurred. Such revenue is included in “managed community reimbursement revenue” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The related costs are included in “managed community reimbursement expense” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. See “Note 9–Revenue.”
Credit Risk and Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company’s resident accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days after the date billed. Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for credit losses of $9.1 million and$7.9 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and represent the Company’s estimate of the amount that will ultimately be collected. The adequacy of the Company’s allowance for credit losses is reviewed on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends, write-off experience, analyses of receivable portfolios by payor source and aging of receivables, as well as a review of specific accounts, and adjustments are made to the allowance, as necessary. Credit losses on resident receivables have historically been within management’s estimates, and management believes that the allowance for credit losses adequately provides for expected losses.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Business Risk
Substantially all of our revenues are derived from senior living communities we own and senior living communities that we manage. Senior living operations are particularly sensitive to adverse economic, social and competitive conditions and trends, including the effects of pandemics, which have previously adversely affected our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We have a concentration of owned properties operating in Texas (20), Indiana (12), Ohio (12), and Florida (8) which represented approximately 22%,13%,18%, and 10% respectively, of our resident revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and approximately 22%,13%,18%, and 10%, respectively, of our resident revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
We had a concentration of owned properties operating in Texas (19), Indiana (12), Ohio (11) and Wisconsin (8), which represented approximately 26%,16%,20%, and 10% respectively, of our resident revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and approximately 24%,18%,20%, and 10%, respectively, of our resident revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method and current income taxes are recorded based on amounts refundable or payable in the current year. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 differ from the statutory tax rates due to state income taxes, permanent tax differences, and changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
Deferred income taxes are recorded based on the estimated future tax effects of loss carryforwards and temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the Company expects those carryforwards and temporary differences to be recovered or settled. Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. As part of the evaluation, management has evaluated taxable income in carryback years, future reversals of taxable temporary differences, feasible tax planning strategies, and future expectations of income. The valuation allowance reduces the Company’s net deferred tax assets to the amount that is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50% likelihood) to be realized. The Company has a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. However, in the event the Company were to ultimately determine that it would be more likely than not that the Company would realize the benefit of deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amounts, adjustments to deferred tax assets would increase net income in the period such determination was made. The benefits of the net deferred tax assets might not be realized if actual results differ from expectations.
The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions through consideration of accounting and reporting guidance on criteria, measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial statement comparability among different companies. The Company is required to recognize a tax benefit in its financial statements for an uncertain tax position only if management’s assessment is that its position is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50% likelihood) to be upheld on audit based only on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as income tax expense.
On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law in the United States, introducing broad tax reform changes including restoring 100% bonus depreciation, revisions to business interest expense limitation under Section 163(j), and changing the computation of taxes related to international operations. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Employee Retention Credits
The Company filed for employee retention credits (“ERC”) with the Internal Revenue Service in November 2023. The ERC is a tax credit for businesses that had certain employee costs and were affected by the coronavirus pandemic under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”)Act. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Department of Treasury notified the Company of ERCs awarded under the CARES Act. The Company elected to account for the ERC as a gain analogizing to ASC 450-30, Gain Contingencies. The Company recognized gross ERC received of $9.1 million as other income on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Redeemable Preferred Stock
The Company’s Series A Preferred Stock is convertible outside of our control and is classified as mezzanine equity. The Series A Preferred Stock was initially recorded at fair value upon issuance, net of issuance costs and discounts. The holders of our Series A Preferred Stock are affiliates of Conversant Capital LLC, (together, the “Conversant Preferred Investors”) and are entitled to vote with the holders of common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company. As such, the Conversant Preferred Investors, in combination with the common stock owned by them and their affiliates as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, have voting rights in excess of 50% of the Company’s total voting stock. It is deemed probable that the Series A Preferred Stock could be redeemed for cash by the Conversant Preferred Investors, and as such, the Series A Preferred Stock is required to be remeasured and adjusted to its maximum redemption value at the end of each reporting period. However, to the extent that the maximum redemption value of the Series A Preferred Stock does not exceed the fair value of the shares at the date of issuance, the shares are not adjusted below the fair value at the date of issuance. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Series A Preferred Stock is carried at the maximum redemption value. The Series A Preferred Stock does not have a maturity date and, therefore, is considered perpetual.
Dividends on redeemable Series A Preferred Stock are recorded to retained earnings or additional paid-in capital if retained earnings is an accumulated deficit. Dividends are cumulative, and any declaration of dividends is at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). If the Board does not declare a dividend in respect of any dividend payment date, the amount of such accrued and unpaid dividend is added to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock and compounds quarterly thereafter. See “Note 8–Securities Financing.”
Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments as part of our overall strategy to manage our exposure to market risks associated with the fluctuations in variable interest rates associated with our debt. We are also required to enter into interest rate derivative instruments in compliance with certain debt agreements. We regularly monitor the financial stability and credit standing of the counterparties to our derivative instruments. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We record all derivatives at fair value. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our derivative instruments consisted of interest rate caps that were not designated as hedge instruments. Changes in fair value of undesignated hedge instruments are recorded in current period earnings as interest expense. See “Note 15–Derivatives and Hedging.”
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
The Company uses the two-class method to compute net income per common share because the Company has issued securities (Series A Preferred Stock) that entitle the holders to participate in dividends and earnings of the Company. Under this method, net income is reduced by the amount of any dividends earned during the period. The remaining earnings (undistributed earnings) are allocated based on the weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock and participating securities, including Series A Preferred Stock (on an if-converted basis) to the extent that each participating security may share in earnings as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. The total earnings allocated to common stock is then divided by the number of outstanding shares to which the earnings are allocated to determine the earnings per share. The two-class method is not applicable during periods with a net loss, as the holders of the participating securities, including Series A Preferred Stock, have no obligation to fund losses.
Diluted net income per common share is computed under the two-class method by using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus, for periods with net income attributable to common shareholders, the potential dilutive effects of stock options, stock-based compensation awards, and warrants. In addition, the Company analyzes the potential dilutive effect of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock under the“if-converted” method when calculating diluted earnings per share, in which it is assumed that the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock converts into common stock at the beginning of the period or when issued, if later. The Company reports the more dilutive of the approaches (two class or “if-converted”) as its diluted net income per share during the period. See “Note 10–Net Income (Loss) Per Share.”
Segment Reporting
The Company evaluates the performance of its senior living communities and allocates resources based on current operations and market assessments on a property-by-property basis. The Company does not have a concentration of operations geographically or by product or service as its management functions are integrated at the property level. The Company has determined that its operating units meet the criteria in ASCTopic 280, Segment Reporting, to be aggregated intoone reporting segment. As such, the Company operates inone segment.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The ASU introduces a practical expedient to calculating current expected credit loss by assuming that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset. This expedient can only be applied to current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim periods within those annual periods, and this update is applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual periods in which financials have not been issued. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Improvements to Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Topic 220). The ASU requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will likely result in the required additional disclosures where applicable being included in our consolidated financial statements once adopted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments require disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and further disaggregation of income taxes paid for individually significant jurisdictions. The guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2025, with the new disclosure requirements effective in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The impact of the guidance is limited to financial statement disclosures.
- Investments, Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale
Investment in Consolidated VIE
In July 2024, the Company entered into the Palatine JVs with affiliates of Palatine Capital Partners, which acquired four senior living communities located in Texas (3) and Georgia (1). The Company is a 51% owner in the joint ventures. The noncontrolling interest of the Palatine JVs is reported on the noncontrolling interest line items in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Investment in Stone Unconsolidated Entity
In May 2024, the Stone JV purchased four communities in the Midwest. KZ Stone Investor LLC is the controlling managing member of the Stone JV and owned 67.29% of the entity as of September 30, 2025. Sonida owned a 32.71% noncontrolling interest in the Stone JV as of September 30, 2025. Sonida operates thefour communities for a management fee based on the gross revenues of the applicable communities, as well as an incentive management fee based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent, and management fees, and other customary terms and conditions.
The Company has evaluated its investment in the Stone JV under ASC 810 and determined that it does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company's interests in the VIE are, therefore, accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The carrying amount of the Company's investment in the unconsolidated venture and maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company’s ownership interest in the Stone JV was $9.3 million as of September 30, 2025, which is included in investment in unconsolidated entity on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company received a return of its investment of $0.6 million in its unconsolidated entity.
The Company evaluates the realization of its investment in unconsolidated entities accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate the Company's investment is other than temporarily impaired. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, there wereno impairments with respect to the Company’s investment in the Stone JV.
East Lake Acquisition
On May 30, 2025, the Company acquiredone senior living community located in Tarpon Springs, Florida for a purchase price of $11.0 million plus transaction costs of $0.3 million. The asset acquisition was recorded at relative fair value. The Company recorded $9.9 million in “Property and equipment, net” for tangible assets purchased; $1.6 million in “Intangible assets, net” for in-place leases; and $0.2 million in “Other long-term liabilities” for below market leases in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company mortgaged the property with a $9.0 million loan. See “Note 7–Debt.”
Alpharetta Acquisition
On June 1, 2025, the Company acquiredone senior living community located in Alpharetta, Georgia for a purchase price of $11.0 million plus transaction costs of $0.2 million. The asset acquisition was recorded at relative fair value. The Company recorded $9.1 million in “Property and equipment, net” for tangible assets purchased; $2.1 million in “Intangible assets, net” for in-place leases; and $0.1 million in “Other long-term liabilities” for below market leases in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Jasper Acquisition
On September 4, 2025, the Company acquiredone senior living community located in Mansfield, Texas for a purchase price of $15.6 million plus transaction costs of $0.1 million. The asset acquisition was recorded at relative fair value. The Company recorded $14.2 million in “Property and equipment, net” for tangible assets purchased and $1.5 million in “Intangible assets, net” for in-place leases in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company classifiedone of its communities as held for sale in its condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 360, following management’s decision to divest the property and actively market it for sale. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $4.7 million to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value less estimated disposal costs. The impairment charge is presented within impairment of assets held for sale in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. There wereno impairments of long-lived assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
The reclassification of the property’s assets and liabilities held-for-sale status represents a presentation change within the balance sheet, rather than a new investing or financing transaction. The community did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation under ASC 205-20, as the sale does not represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The Company continues to actively market the community for sale, and no sale-related cash flows with respect to such community have been recognized as of September 30, 2025.

- Stock-Based Compensation
The Company uses equity awards as a long-term retention program that is intended to attract, retain and provide incentives for employees, officers, and directors and to more closely align shareholder and employee interests. The Company recognizes compensation expense for all of its share-based stock awards based on their fair values.
The Company recognized$1.4 million in stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. The Company recognized$3.6 million and$3.2 million in stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $9.5 million in unrecognized stock compensation expense which will be recognized over approximately three years.
- Commitments and Contingencies
As of September 30, 2025, the Company hadcontractual commitments of $7.6 million related to future renovations and technology enhancements to its communities.
The Company has claims incurred in the normal course of its business. Most of these claims are believed by management to be covered by insurance, subject to deductibles, normal reservations of rights by the insurance companies and possibly subject to certain exclusions in the applicable insurance policies. Where appropriate, these matters have been submitted to the Company’s insurance carrier. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. It is not possible to quantify the ultimate liability, if any, in these matters. Loss contingencies are reviewed quarterly, and estimates are adjusted to reflect the impact of all known information. As more information becomes available, including from potential claimants as litigation or resolution efforts progress, management estimates and assumptions regarding the potential financial impacts may change.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company was the prospective defendant in a pre-suit claim of negligence and wrongful death relating to a former resident at one of the Company’s senior living communities. While, to the Company’s knowledge, no complaint has been filed with respect to such claim as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company has deemed it to be probable that such claim will result in a loss. The Company maintains insurance coverage for this claim, subject to meeting certain deductibles, applicable policy limits, customary reservations of rights by the insurance company, and the other terms and conditions thereof. Estimating an amount or range of possible losses from claims of this nature is inherently difficult, particularly where litigation has not commenced, and the final timing and outcome of such claim is dependent on many factors that are difficult to predict. Accordingly the Company’s ultimate cost related to this matter may be materially different than the amount of the Company’s current estimate and accruals.
The Company has accrued a total of $6.5 million as of September 30, 2025 for all loss contingencies that are probable to result in a loss and reasonably estimated which is included in accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In addition, insurance receivables for these claims have been recorded totaling $5.2 million as of September 30, 2025, which is included in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company uses interest rate cap arrangements with financial institutions to manage exposure to interest rate changes for loans with variable interest rates. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $194.2 million and $185.1 million, respectively. The fair value of these derivative assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was$0.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which was determined using significant observable inputs (Level 2), including quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions, and third-party pricing services. See “Note 15– Derivatives and Hedging.”
Financial Instruments Not Reported at Fair Value
For those financial instruments not carried at fair value, the carrying amount and estimated fair values of our financial assets and liabilities, were as follows as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

We believe the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
The fair value of debt, excluding deferred loan costs, is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements, which represent Level 2 inputs as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

- Derivatives and Hedging
The Company uses derivatives as part of its overall strategy to manage our exposure to market risks associated with the fluctuations in variable interest rates associated with our debt. We are also required to enter into interest rate derivative instruments in compliance with certain debt agreements. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
During August 2025, the Company entered into an interest rate cap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of $122.0 million for $0.1 million to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations in connection with the 2025 Ally Term Loan. The interest rate cap has a 36-month term and effectively caps SOFR at 5.50%.
During April 2024, the Company entered into an interest rate cap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of $49.2 million for $1.1 million to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with a portion of our variable mortgage notes payable to the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”). The interest rate cap has 24-month term and effectively caps SOFR at 4.00%. The IRC is not designated as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815-20, Derivatives–Hedging, and therefore, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are included as a component of interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In connection with a loan related to the Company’s acquisition of a community located in Macedonia, Ohio in May 2024, the Company entered into a SOFR-based interest rate cap to reduce exposure to the variable interest rate fluctuations associated with the new mortgage. The total cost of the IRC was $0.2 million and has an aggregate notional amount of $9.4 million. The IRC has a 24-month term and caps SOFR at 6.00%.

- Segment Information
Each of our communities are identified as individual operating segments and we combine them into a single reportable segment for reporting purposes under ASC 280. We measure the segment based on resident revenue less community operating expense, (adjusted for various non-recurring non-operating community expenses), which we define as community net operating income (“NOI”), as well as some key performance indicators such as weighted average occupancy and a measurement of average rent per available unit.
Our Chief Executive Officer is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who organizes our company, manages resource allocations and measures performance among ourone reportable segment. The CODM uses community NOI by property to allocate operating and capital resources and assesses performance of the segment by comparing actual NOI results to historical results and previously forecasted financial information. Our CODM manages our business by reviewing annual forecasts and segment results on a monthly basis. The measure of segment assets is reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The total investment in equity method investments and capital expenditures are presented on the consolidated financial statements.

- Subsequent Event
Strategic Merger Agreement with CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc.
On November 4, 2025, the Company, SSL Sparti LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Holdco”), Sparti Merger Sub, Inc., a Maryland corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“SNDA Merger Sub”), CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“CHP”), and CHP Merger Corp., a Maryland corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of CHP (“CHP Merger Sub”) entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides for a business combination of the Company and CHP, through a series of steps ending with a merger of CHP and SNDA Merger Sub, with SNDA Merger Sub surviving the merger (the “CHP Merger”), as a result of which the Company will have indirectly acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of CHP.
Each share of common stock of CHP, par value $0.01, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive (i) $2.32 in cash and (ii) the number of shares of common stock of Sonida, par value $0.01 (“Sonida Common Stock”), equal to $4.58, divided by the volume weighted average trading price of Sonida Common Stock during a measurement period prior to the closing date, subject to a collar of 15% below the transaction reference price for the Sonida Common Stock of $26.74 (the “Transaction Reference Price”) and 30% above the Transaction Reference Price.
In connection with the issuance of Sonida Common Stock to the former CHP shareholders and certain equity financing transactions described below that will require that the Company issue additional shares of Sonida Common Stock, and subject to Sonida shareholder approval, Sonida intends to amend its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, immediately prior to the effective time of the transactions to increase the authorized number of shares of Sonida Common Stock.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for Sonida and CHP. If the Merger Agreement is terminated by CHP to enter into a definitive agreement providing for the implementation of a superior proposal in accordance with the “fiduciary out” provisions of the Merger Agreement, CHP will be required to pay to Sonida a termination fee of $30.0 million (the “CHP Termination Fee”), provided that Sonida must first be given an opportunity to match the superior proposal. The CHP Termination Fee will also be payable by CHP to Sonida if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances and, prior to the date that is 12 months after the date of such termination, an acquisition proposal is consummated or CHP enters into an alternative acquisition agreement that is later consummated. Sonida may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Board of Directors of CHP has withdrawn its recommendation in support of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and CHP will be required to pay the CHP Termination Fee.
CHP may terminate the Merger Agreement if, prior to obtaining the Sonida shareholder approval in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Board has withdrawn the Board Recommendation, in which case Sonida must pay to CHP a termination fee of $30.0 million (“Sonida Termination Fee”).
The Merger Agreement may be terminated by either party if (i) the other party materially breaches the Merger Agreement (including by failing to consummate the closing when required under the terms and subject to the conditions in the Merger Agreement), in which case the breaching party is required to pay the CHP Termination Fee or the Sonida Termination Fee, as applicable (which termination fee serves as a cap on such party’s damages); (ii) the closing is not consummated by May 29, 2026 (or such later date as agreed to by the parties, the “Outside Date”); (iii) a permanent injunction is issued by a governmental authority prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; or (iv) the Sonida shareholder approval under the Merger Agreement shall not have been obtained, in which case Sonida must pay the Sonida Termination Fee to CHP, or the CHP shareholder approval under the Merger Agreement shall not have been obtained, in which case CHP must reimburse Sonida for up to $10.0 million of its transaction expenses.
On November 5, 2025, the Company provided an irrevocable standby letter of credit in the amount of $15.0 million to CHP in partial support of the Sonida Termination Fee if needed.
Financing of the Merger Transaction
In order to fund a portion of the cash consideration required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, certain shareholders of Sonida, including entities affiliated with Conversant Capital LLC (“Conversant”) and Silk Partners, L.P. (“Silk”), two of Sonida’s largest shareholders, have committed to fund an aggregate amount of $110.0 million in exchange for the issuance of 4,113,688 shares of Sonida Common Stock in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), at a price per share equal to the Transaction Reference Price, in accordance with certain Investment Agreements (as defined below) as further described below (the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreements, the “Equity Financing”).
In addition, in order to fund a portion of the cash consideration required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Sonida has obtained a debt commitment letter in an aggregate amount of $900.0 million for a 364-day senior secured bridge loan and an increase in Sonida’s revolver facility from $150.0 million to $300.0 million. The amount of the bridge loan will be reduced by the amount of permanent term loan financing and agency financing that Sonida raises before the second closing date under the Merger Agreement. Sonida’s receipt of the debt financing is not a condition to closing the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. CHP will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Sonida to obtain the debt financing, including any property-level financing.
Investment Agreements
On November 4, 2025, in connection with the Equity Financing, Sonida entered into (i) an investment agreement (the “Conversant Investment Agreement”) with certain affiliates of Conversant (the “Conversant Investors”), pursuant to which the Conversant Investors have agreed to fund an aggregate amount of $100.0 million in exchange for the issuance of 3,739,716 shares of Sonida Common Stock in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act at the Transaction Reference Price per share, immediately prior to the CHP Merger, and (ii) an investment agreement (the “Silk Investment Agreement” and, together with the Conversant Investment Agreement, collectively, the “Investment Agreements”) with Silk (the Conversant Investors and Silk, together, the “Equity Investors”) pursuant to which Silk has agreed to fund an aggregate amount of $10.0 million in exchange for the issuance of 373,972 shares of Sonida Common Stock in a private placement at a price of the Transaction Reference Price per share on substantially the same terms as in the Conversant Investment Agreement. Sonida will use the proceeds from the Equity Financing pursuant to the Investment Agreements to fund a portion of the cash consideration required for the consummation of the transactions under the Merger Agreement. Under the Investment Agreements, Sonida provides to the Equity Investors representations and warranties substantially similar to those under the Merger Agreement, and the Equity Investors provide to Sonida customary representations and warranties for a private financing of this type. The Equity Investors and Sonida are subject to compliance with customary covenants under the Investment Agreements, including Sonida’s compliance with interim operating covenants, subject to the Equity Investors’ consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Investment Agreements are subject to termination (a) upon the parties’ mutual agreement, (b) by either party after the Outside Date, (c) by either party upon termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms or (d) by either party if any governmental entity issues any final and unappealable injunction or other ruling prohibiting the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreements and the ancillary documents related thereto, as applicable. The parties have provided mutual indemnities for breach of certain representation and warranties and post-closing covenants capped at the applicable purchase price paid by each of the Equity Investors. Under the
Investment Agreements, Sonida is responsible for the Equity Investors’ reasonable and documented legal and other out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the Equity Financing (not to exceed,$2.0 million with respect to the Conversant Investors and $0.2 million with respect to Silk). Additionally, the Conversant Investors and Silk will be entitled to 15% and 1.5% of the CHP Termination Fee, respectively, in the event Sonida receives the CHP Termination Fee under the Merger Agreement. None of the Equity Investors is entitled to any commitment fee under the Investment Agreements.
In connection with the closing of the Equity Financing under the Investment Agreements, (i) Conversant and certain other entities affiliated with Conversant that are current Sonida shareholders, Silk and Sonida will enter into an amended and restated investor rights agreement, and (ii) the Conversant Parties, Silk, PF Investors, LLC and Sonida will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement, each in the substantially final forms attached to each of the Investment Agreements.
