LTC PROPERTIES INC

Here and throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K wherever we provide details of our properties’ bed/unit count, the number of beds/units applies to skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, memory care and behavioral health care properties only. This number is based upon unit/bed counts shown on operating licenses provided to us by operators or units/beds as stipulated by lease/mortgage documents. These numbers often differ, usually not materially by property, from units/beds in operation at any point in time. The differences are caused by such things as operators converting a patient/resident room for alternative uses, such as offices or storage, or converting a multi-patient room/unit into a single patient room/unit. We monitor our properties on a routine basis through site visits and reviews of current licenses. In an instance where such change would cause a de-licensing of beds or in our management’s opinion impact the value of the property, we may take action against the operator to preserve the value of the property/collateral.

Owned Real Properties-SHOP

During the second quarter of 2025, we began utilizing the RIDEA structure and established a SHOP segment. Following the establishment of our SHOP segment, we terminated triple-net master leases with three operators and converted the communities covered under the master leases into our SHOP segment. Additionally, we acquired 11 communities within our SHOP segment. As of December 31, 2025, our SHOP segment represented 23.6% of our gross portfolio investments and comprised of 25 seniors housing communities that are managed on our behalf by seven independent operators pursuant to separate management agreements.

Owned Real Properties-Triple-Net Portfolio

Our Triple-Net Portfolio generally includes triple-net operating leases with an initial term of two to ten years. Each lease is a triple-net lease which requires the lessee to pay all taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs, capital and non-capital expenditures and other costs necessary in the operations of the facilities. Many of the leases contain renewal options and provide for fixed minimum base rent during the initial and renewal periods. The majority of our leases contain provisions for specified annual increases over the rents of the prior year and that increase is generally computed in one of four ways depending on specific provisions of each lease:

Our leases that contain fixed annual rental escalations and/or have annual rental escalations that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index or the Medicare Market Basket Rate, are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease period. Certain leases have annual rental escalations that are contingent upon changes in the gross operating revenues of the property. This revenue is not recognized until the appropriate contingencies have been resolved.

Generally, our leases provide for one or more of the following: security deposits, property tax impounds, repair and maintenance, escrows and credit enhancements such as corporate or personal guarantees or letters of credit. In addition, our leases are typically structured as master leases and multiple master leases with one operator, and are generally cross-defaulted.

Financing Receivables

• We have entered into joint ventures (“JV”) and contributed into the JVs for the acquisition of properties through sale and leaseback transactions. Concurrently, each of these JVs leased the acquired properties back to an affiliate of the seller and provided the seller-lessee with purchase options. We determined that each of these sale and leaseback transactions meet the accounting criteria to be presented asFinancing receivables* on ourConsolidated Balance Sheets and recorded the rental revenue from these properties asInterest income from financing receivables on ourConsolidated Statements of Income. SeeNote 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within our consolidated financial statements for more information. The following tables provide information regarding our financing receivables at December 31, 2025 (dollar amounts in thousands):

Mortgage Loans

We provide mortgage financing for health care properties based on our established investment underwriting criteria. We have also provided construction loans that by their terms convert into purchase/lease transactions or permanent financing mortgage loans upon completion of construction. The following table summarizes our investments in mortgage loans secured by first mortgages at December 31, 2025*(dollar amounts in thousands)*:

In general, the mortgage loans may not be prepaid except in the event of the sale of the collateral property to a third-party that is not affiliated with the borrower, although partial prepayments (including any prepayment premium) are often permitted where a mortgage loan is secured by more than one property upon a sale of one or more, but not all, of the collateral properties to a third-party which is not an affiliate of the borrower. The terms of the mortgage loans generally impose a premium upon prepayment of the loans depending upon the period in which the prepayment occurs, whether such prepayment was permitted or required, and certain other conditions such as upon the sale of the property under a pre-existing purchase option, destruction or condemnation, or other circumstances as approved by us. The prepayment premium is based on a yield maintenance formula. In addition to a lien on the mortgaged property, the loans are generally secured by certain non-real estate assets of the properties and contain certain other security provisions in the form of letters of credit and/or security deposits.

As noted in the table above, during the year ended December 31, 2025, we modified a $179.9 million mortgage loan with Prestige, the borrower, to increase the current interest paid by the borrower from 8.5% to the full contractual interest rate of 11.14%, escalating annually. The modification was effective July 1, 2025. Additionally, the modification provides Prestige an option to prepay their mortgage loan at par and without penalty within a 12-month window beginning in July 2026. In evaluating the impact of the prepayment provisions allowing the borrower to settle the obligation at an amount less than amounts previously accrued under the effective interest method, we wrote-off $41.5 million of effective interest receivable previously accrued related to this mortgage loan during the third quarter of 2025. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, Prestige provided notice of its intent to repay its $179.9 million mortgage loan. Prestige is current on their contractual loan obligations through February 2026.

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

We have an ADC loan that meets the accounting criteria to be considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE as we do not have both: 1) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance, and 2) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. However, we do have significant influence over the VIE. Therefore, we account for the investment as a joint venture using the equity method of accounting.
