Note

Note 1 —Organization

Healthcare Trust, Inc. (including, as required by context, Healthcare Trust Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”) and its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is an externally managed real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“REIT”) that focuses on acquiring and managing a diversified portfolio of healthcare-related real estate, focused on medical office and other healthcare-related buildings (“MOBs”), and senior housing operating properties (“SHOPs”).

As of December 31, 2023, the Company owned 204 properties (includingtwo land parcels) located in 33 states and comprised of 9.0 million rentable square feet.

Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through the OP and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including taxable REIT subsidiaries. The Company’s advisor, Healthcare Trust Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) manages our day-to-day business with the assistance of our property manager, Healthcare Trust Properties, LLC (the “Property Manager”). The Company’s Advisor and Property Manager are under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (“AR Global”), and these related parties receive compensation and fees for providing services to the Company. The Company also reimburses these entities for certain expenses they incur in providing these services to the Company. Healthcare Trust Special Limited Partnership, LLC (the “Special Limited Partner”), which is also under common control with AR Global, also has an interest in the Company through ownership of interests in the OP. As of December 31, 2023, the Company owned 46 seniors housing properties under the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (“RIDEA”) structure in its SHOP segment. Under RIDEA, a REIT may lease qualified healthcare properties on an arm’s length basis to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) if the property is operated on behalf of such subsidiary by a person who qualifies as an eligible independent contractor.

The Company operates intwo reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes: MOBs and SHOPs. In its MOB operating segment, the Company owns, manages, and leases single and multi-tenant MOBs where tenants are required to pay their pro rata share of property operating expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors, in addition to base rent. The Property Manager or third party managers manage the Company’s MOBs. In its SHOP segment, the Company invests in seniors housing properties using the RIDEA structure. As of December 31, 2023, the Company hadfour eligible independent contractors operating 46 SHOPs. All of the Company’s properties across both business segments are located throughout the United States.

The Company has declared quarterly dividends entirely in shares of its common stock since October 2020 in order to preserve its liquidity in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Dividends payable entirely in shares of common stock are treated in a fashion similar to a stock split for accounting purposes specifically related to per-share calculations for the current and prior periods. Since October 2020, the Company has issued an aggregate of approximately 19.0 million shares in respect to the Stock Dividends. No other additional shares of common stock have been issued since October 2020. References made to weighted-average shares and per-share amounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the cumulative increase in shares outstanding resulting from the stock dividends since October 2020 and through January 2024, and are noted as such throughout the accompanying financial statements and notes. Any future issuances of stock dividends will also result in retroactive adjustments. Please see Note 8 — Stockholder’s Equity for additional information on the stock dividends.

On March 31, 2023, the Company published a new estimate of per-share net asset value (“Estimated Per-Share NAV”) as of December 31, 2022. The Company’s previous Estimated Per-Share NAV was as of December 31, 2021. The Estimated Per-Share NAV published on March 31, 2023 has not been adjusted since publication and will not be adjusted until the board of directors (the “Board”) determines a new Estimated Per-Share NAV. Issuing dividends in additional shares of common stock will, all things equal, cause the value of each share to decline because the number of shares outstanding increases when shares of common stock are issued in respect of a stock dividend; however, because each stockholder will receive the same number of new shares, the total value of a common stockholder’s investment, all things equal, will not change assuming no sales or other transfers. The Company intends to publish Estimated Per-Share NAV periodically at the discretion of the Board, provided that such estimates will be made at least once annually unless the Company lists its common stock.

Note 2 —Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, impairments, fair value measurements and income taxes, as applicable.

Out-of-Period Adjustments

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company identified certain historical errors in its statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), consolidated statements of changes in equity, and statements of cash flows since 2019, which impacted the quarterly financial statements and annual periods previously issued. Specifically, the Company had understated depreciation and amortization expense on certain capital improvements and deferred leasing commissions, thereby understating previously reported depreciation and amortization expense by $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and pre-2021 periods, respectively.

As of December 31, 2022, the cumulative impact of recording the correct depreciation and amortization expense is an understatement of depreciation and amortization expense of $0.7 million, accumulated depreciation of $0.3 million and deferred costs of $0.4 million. The Company concluded that the errors noted above were not material for the year ended December 31, 2023 or any prior periods, and has adjusted the amounts on a cumulative basis in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Adverse Economic Impacts Since the COVID-19 Pandemic

During the first quarter of 2020, the global COVID-19 pandemic commenced. The pandemic and its aftermath has had, and could continue to have, adverse impacts on economic and market conditions. The Company’s MOB segment has been less impacted than its SHOP segment, which continues to be challenged by the post-pandemic operating environment.

Further, recent and continuing increases in inflation brought about by labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and increases in interest rates have had, and may continue to have, adverse impacts on the Company’s results of operations. Moreover, these increases in the rate of inflation, the ongoing wars in Ukraine, Israel and related sanctions, supply chain disruptions and increases in interest rates may also impact the ability of the Company’s tenants to pay rent and hence the Company’s results of operations and liquidity.

COVID-19 Impact — MOB Segment

The financial stability and overall health of the Company’s MOB tenants is critical to its business. The Company took a proactive approach to achieve mutually agreeable solutions with its MOB tenants and in some cases, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company executed lease amendments providing for deferral of rent. Since the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has not entered into any rent deferral agreements with any of its MOB tenants, and all amounts previously deferred under prior rent deferral agreements were collected in the year ended December 31, 2021.

For accounting purposes, in accordance with ASC 842: Leases, normally a company would be required to assess a lease modification to determine if the lease modification should be treated as a separate lease and if not, modification accounting would be applied which would require a company to reassess the classification of the lease (including leases for which the prior classification under ASC 840 was retained as part of the election to apply the package of practical expedients allowed upon the adoption of ASC 842, which doesn’t apply to leases subsequently modified). However, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic in which many leases are being modified, the FASB and SEC have provided relief that allows companies to make a policy election as to whether they treat COVID-19 related lease amendments as a provision included in the pre-concession arrangement, and therefore, not a lease modification, or to treat the lease amendment as a modification. In order to be considered COVID-19 related, cash flows must be substantially the same or less than those prior to the concession. For COVID-19 relief qualified changes, there are two methods to potentially account for such rent deferrals or abatements under the relief, (1) as if the changes were originally contemplated in the lease contract or (2) as if the deferred payments are variable lease payments contained in the lease contract.

For all other lease changes that did not qualify for FASB relief, the Company is required to apply modification accounting including assessing classification under ASC 842. Some, but not all of the Company’s lease modifications qualify for the FASB relief. In accordance with the relief provisions, instead of treating these qualifying leases as modifications, the Company has elected to treat the modifications as if previously contained in the lease and recast rents receivable prospectively (if necessary). Under that accounting, for modifications that were deferrals only, there would be no impact on overall rental revenue and for any abatement amounts that reduced total rent to be received, the impact would be recognized ratably over the remaining life of the lease. For leases not qualifying for this relief, the Company has applied modification accounting and determined that there were no changes in the current classification of its leases impacted by negotiations with its tenants.

COVID-19 Impact — SHOP Segment

In the Company’s SHOP segment, occupancy trended downward from March 2020 until June 2021 and has since generally stabilized. The Company also experienced lower inquiry volumes and reduced in-person tours in post-pandemic periods as compared to pre-pandemic periods. In addition, beginning in March 2020, operating costs began to rise materially, including for services, labor and personal protective equipment and other supplies, as the Company’s operators took appropriate actions to protect residents and caregivers. At the SHOPs, the Company generally bears these cost increases, which were partially offset by funds received under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), and to a lesser extent, cost recoveries for personal protective equipment from residents. See the “CARES Act Grants” section below for additional information on the CARES Act.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company relied more on the use of temporary contract labor and agencies than it had historically. The Company has since reduced its reliance on this labor source in the year ended December 31, 2023. However, the wage expenses (including overtime, training and bonus wages) incurred by the Company from employees of its third party operators has increased due to, among other things, inflation raising the cost of labor generally, a lack of qualified personnel that the Company’s third-party operators are able to employ on a permanent basis and training hours and other onboarding costs for permanent staff which replaced previously utilized contract and agency labor.

The persistence of high inflation, labor shortages and supply chain disruptions have caused adverse impacts to the Company’s occupancy and cost levels, and these trends may continue to impact the Company and have a material adverse effect on its operations in future periods.

The adverse financial impacts since the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company have been partially offset by funds received under the CARES Act. The Company didnot receive any funds through the CARES Act in the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company received $4.5 million and $5.1 million in these funds during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company considers these funds to be grant contributions from the government. The full amounts received were recognized as reductions of property operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, to partially offset incurred COVID-19 expenses. The Company does not anticipate that any further funds under the CARES Act will be received, and there can be no assurance that the CARES Act program will be extended or any further amounts received under currently effective or potential future government programs.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues, which are derived primarily from lease contracts, include rent received from tenants in its MOB segment. As of December 31, 2023, these leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 4.7 years. Rent from tenants in the Company’s MOB operating segment (as discussed below) is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Because many of the leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable for, and include in revenue from tenants on a straight-line basis, unbilled rent receivables that the Company will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. When the Company acquires a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation. For new leases after acquisition, the commencement date is considered to be the date the tenant takes control of the space. For lease modifications, the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease modification is executed. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. Tenant revenue also includes operating expense reimbursements which generally increase with the increase in property operating and maintenance expenses in our MOB segment. In addition to base rent, dependent on the specific lease, tenants are generally required to pay either (i) their pro rata share of property operating and maintenance expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors or (ii) the their share of increases in property operating and maintenance expenses to the extent they exceed the properties’ expenses for the base year of the respective leases. Under ASC 842, the Company has elected to report combined lease and non-lease components in a single line “Revenue from tenants.” For expenses paid directly by the tenant, under both ASC 842 and 840, the Company has reflected them on a net basis.

The Company’s revenues also include resident services and fee income primarily related to rent derived from lease contracts with residents in the Company’s SHOP segment, held using a structure permitted under RIDEA, and to a lesser extent, fees for ancillary services performed for SHOP residents, which are generally variable in nature. Rental income from residents in the Company’s SHOP segment is recognized as earned when services are provided. Residents pay monthly rent that covers occupancy of their unit and basic services, including utilities, meals and some housekeeping services. The terms ofthe leases are short term in nature, primarily month-to-month. The Company didnot record material amounts of ancillary revenue from non-residents during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company recorded ancillary revenue from non-residentsof $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Fees for ancillary services are recorded in the period in which the services are performed. The decline in ancillary revenue since the year ended December 31, 2021 is primarily due to the Company’s dispositions of its SNF property in Wellington, Florida, which was sold in May 2021.

The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants and residents in advance of their due dates. Pursuant to certain of the Company’s lease agreements, tenants are required to reimburse the Company for certain property operating and maintenance expenses related to non-SHOP assets (recorded in revenue from tenants), in addition to paying base rent, whereas under certain other lease agreements, the tenants are directly responsible for all operating and maintenance costs of the respective properties.

The following table presents future base rent payments on a cash basis due to the Company as of December 31, 2023 over the next five years and thereafter. These amounts exclude tenant reimbursements and contingent rent payments, as applicable, that may be collected from certain tenants based on provisions related to sales thresholds and increases in annual rent based on exceeding certain economic indexes, among other items. These amounts also exclude SHOP leases which are short-term in nature.

The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rents receivable and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Under the leasing standards, the Company is required to assess, based on credit risk only, if it is probable that the Company will collect virtually all of the lease payments at lease commencement date and it must continue to reassess collectability periodically thereafter based on new facts and circumstances affecting the credit risk of the tenant. Partial reserves, or the ability to assume partial recovery are no longer permitted. If the Company determines that it is probable it will collect virtually all of the lease payments (rent and common area maintenance), the lease will continue to be accounted for on an accrual basis (i.e., straight-line). However, if the Company determines it is not probable that it will collect virtually all of the lease payments, the lease will be accounted for on a cash basis and a full reserve would be recorded on previously accrued amounts in cases where it was subsequently concluded that collection was not probable. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating revenue from tenants in accordance with accounting rules, on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable.

During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded reductions in revenue of $1.2 million, $3.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Approximately $1.3 million of bad debt expense recorded in the year ended December 31, 2022, related to previously disposed properties. There wereno significant write-off’s related to previously disposed properties during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2021.

Investments in Real Estate

Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life or improve the productive capacity of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

At the time an asset is acquired, the Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of the asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets. See the “Purchase Price Allocation”section in this Note for a discussion of the initial accounting for investments in real estate.

Disposal of real estate investments that represent a strategic shift in operations that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results are required to be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. No properties were presented as discontinued operations during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Properties that are intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale, most significantly that the sale is probable within one year. The Company evaluates probability of sale based on specific facts including whether a sales agreement is in place and the buyer has made significant non-refundable deposits. Properties are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. There wereno real estate investments held for sale as of December 31, 2023 or 2022.

Purchase Price Allocation

In both a business combination and an asset acquisition, the Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets may include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as if vacant basis. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases and other identifiable assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. In addition, any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued non-controlling interests (in a business combination) are recorded at their estimated fair values. In allocating the fair value to assumed mortgages, amounts are recorded to debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows, which is calculated to account for either above or below-market interest rates. In allocating the fair value to any assumed or issued non-controlling interests, amounts are recorded at their fair value at the close of business on the acquisition date. In a business combination, the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is either recorded as goodwill or as a bargain purchase gain. In an asset acquisition, the difference between the acquisition price (including capitalized transaction costs) and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is allocated to the non-current assets.

For acquired properties with leases classified as operating leases, the Company allocates the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective fair values. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of the Company’s pre-acquisition due diligence in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.

Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. The Company estimates the fair value using data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Fair value estimates are also made using significant assumptions such as capitalization rates, fair market lease rates, discount rates and land values per square foot.

Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquire leases for above- and below-market lease rates and the value of in-place leases. Factors considered in the analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, taking into account current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at contract rates during the expected lease-up period, which typically ranges fromsix to 24 months. The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining initial term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.

The aggregate value of intangible assets related to customer relationship, as applicable, is measured based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the tenant. Characteristics considered by the Company in determining these values include the nature and extent of its existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors. The Company did not record any intangible asset amounts related to customer relationships during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Accounting for Leases

Lessor Accounting

In accordance with the lease accounting standard, all of the Company’s leases as lessor prior to adoption were accounted for as operating leases. The Company evaluates new leases originated after the adoption date (by the Company or by a predecessor lessor/owner) pursuant to the new guidance where a lease for some or all of a building is classified by a lessor as a sales-type lease if the significant risks and rewards of ownership reside with the tenant. This situation is met if, among other things, there is an automatic transfer of title during the lease, a bargain purchase option, the non-cancelable lease term is for more than a major part of the remaining economic useful life of the asset (e.g., equal to or greater than 75%), the present value of the minimum lease payments represents substantially all (e.g., equal to or greater than 90%) of the leased property’s fair value at lease inception, or the asset is so specialized in nature that it provides no alternative use to the lessor (and therefore would not provide any future value to the lessor) after the lease term. Further, such new leases would be evaluated to consider whether they would be failed sale-leaseback transactions and accounted for as financing transactions by the lessor. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no leases as a lessor that would be considered as sales-type leases or financings under sale-leaseback rules.

As a lessor of real estate, the Company has elected, by class of underlying assets, to account for lease and non-lease components (such as tenant reimbursements of property operating and maintenance expenses) as a single lease component as an operating lease because (i) the non-lease components have the same timing and pattern of transfer as the associated lease component; and (ii) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Additionally, only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the accounting guidance. Indirect leasing costs in connection with new or extended tenant leases, if any, are being expensed.

Lessee Accounting

The Company is also the lessee under certain land leases which will continue to be classified as operating leases under transition elections unless subsequently modified. These leases are reflected on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the rent expense is reflected on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

For lessees, the accounting standard requires the application of a dual lease classification approach, classifying leases as either operating or finance leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, while lease expense for finance leases is recognized based on an effective interest method over the term of the lease. Also, lessees must recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Further, certain transactions where at inception of the lease the buyer-lessor accounted for the transaction as a purchase of real estate and a new lease, may now be required to have symmetrical accounting to the seller-lessee if the transaction was not a qualified sale-leaseback and accounted for as a financing transaction. For additional information and disclosures related to the Company’s operating leases, see Note 16 —Commitments and Contingencies.

Gain on Dispositions of Real Estate Investments

Gains on sales of rental real estate are not considered sales to customers and will generally be recognized pursuant to the provisions included in ASC 610-20, Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”).

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If an impairment exists, due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, the Company would recognize an impairment loss in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss recorded would equal the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. These assessments have a direct impact on net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net earnings.

Reportable Segments

The Company has determined that it hastwo reportable segments, with activities related to investing in MOBs and SHOPs. Management evaluates the operating performance of the Company’s investments in real estate and seniors housing properties on an individual property level. For additional information see Note 15 — Segment Reporting.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings,15 years for land improvements,7 to 15 years for fixtures and improvements, and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests.

Construction in progress, including capitalized interest, insurance and real estate taxes, is not depreciated until the development has reached substantial completion. The value of certain other intangibles such as certificates of need in certain jurisdictions are amortized over the expected period of benefit (generally the life of the related building).

The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases, is amortized to expense over the remaining periods of the respective leases.

The value of customer relationship intangibles, if any, is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

Assumed mortgage premiums or discounts are amortized as an increase or reduction to interest expense over the remaining terms of the respective mortgages.

Above and Below-Market Lease Amortization

Capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of revenue from tenants over the remaining terms of the respective leases and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to revenue from tenants over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases. If a tenant with a below-market rent renewal does not renew, any remaining unamortized amount will be taken into income at that time.

Capitalized above-market ground lease values are amortized as a reduction of property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market ground lease values are amortized as an increase to property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods.

Derivative Instruments

The Company may use derivative financial instruments to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. Certain of the techniques used to hedge exposure to interest rate fluctuations may also be used to protect against declines in the market value of assets that result from general trends in debt markets. The principal objective of such agreements is to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions.

The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply, or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.

The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment, any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-2 on January 1, 2019. If the derivative is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment, the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive loss to the extent that it is effective, with any ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value immediately recognized in earnings. After the adoption of ASU 2017-2, if the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting, all of the change in value is recorded in other comprehensive loss.

Non-controlling Interests

The non-controlling interests represent the portion of the common and preferred equity in the OP that is not owned by the Company as well as certain investment arrangements with other unaffiliated third parties whereby such investors receive an ownership interest in certain of the Company’s property-owning subsidiaries and are entitled to receive a proportionate share of the net operating cash flow derived from the subsidiaries’ property. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets and presented as net loss attributable to non-controlling interests on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Non-controlling interests are allocated a share of net income or loss based on their share of equity ownership, including any preferential amounts. See Note 13 — Non-Controlling Interests for additional information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in bank accounts as well as investments in highly-liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less. The Company didnot have any cash invested in money market funds at December 31, 2023 or 2022.

The Company deposits cash with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (“FDIC”) up to an insurance limit. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had deposits of $46.4 million and $53.7 million, of which $34.2 million and $43.6 million, respectively, were in excess of the amount insured by the FDIC. Although the Company bears risk to amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it does not anticipate any losses as a result.

Deferred Costs

Deferred costs, net, consists of deferred financing costs related to the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities (as defined in Note 5 — Credit Facilities), and deferred leasing costs. Deferred financing costs relating to mortgage notes payable (see Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net) are reflected net of the related financing in the mortgage notes payable, net line item of the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Deferred financing costs associated with the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities and mortgage notes payable represent commitment fees, legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing. These costs are amortized over the term of the financing agreement using the effective interest method for the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities and using the effective interest method over the expected term for the mortgage notes payable.

Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed if the associated debt is refinanced or paid down before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

Deferred leasing costs, consisting primarily of lease commissions and professional fees incurred in connection with new leases, are deferred and amortized over the term of the lease.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based incentive award program for its directors, which is accounted for under the guidance of share- based payments. The cost of services received in exchange for these stock awards is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and the expense for such awards is included in general and administrative expenses and is recognized over the service period (i.e., vesting) required or when the requirements for exercise of the award have been met (see Note 11 —Equity-Based Compensation).

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2013. If the Company continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes all of its REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP) to its stockholders. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that the Company distribute annually at least 90% of the Company’s REIT taxable income to the Company’s stockholders.

If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. The Company distributed to its stockholders 100% of its REIT taxable income for each of the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal or state income taxes related to such REIT taxable income was recorded in the Company’s financial statements. Even if the Company continues to qualify as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.

Certain limitations are imposed on REITs with respect to the ownership and operation of seniors housing properties. Generally, to qualify as a REIT, the Company cannot directly or indirectly operate seniors housing properties. Instead, such facilities may be either leased to a third-party operator or leased to a TRS and operated by a third party on behalf of the TRS. Accordingly, the Company has formed a TRS that is wholly-owned by the OP to lease its SHOPs and the TRS has entered into management contracts with unaffiliated third-party operators to operate the facilities on its behalf.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company owned 46 seniors housing properties which are leased and operated through its TRS. The TRS is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the OP. A TRS is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies (including modifying intercompany leases with the TRS) and recent financial operations. In the event the Company determines that it would not be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, the Company establishes a valuation allowance which offsets the previously recognized income tax asset. Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the TRS’s assets and liabilities used for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes as well as net operating loss carryforwards. Significant components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2023 consisted of deferred rent and net operating loss carryforwards. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company modified 25 intercompany leases with the TRS which abated intercompany rent due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company modified 26 intercompany leases with the TRS to reflect what management believes is an arm’s length behavior in light of the current operating environment. These intercompany lease modifications reduced intercompany rent to what a third-party would pay based on arm’s length principles as described under Section 482 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Because of the Company’s TRS's recent operating history of taxable losses and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the results of operations of the Company’s SHOP assets, the Company is not able to conclude that it is more likely than not it will realize the future benefit of its deferred tax assets; thus the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance of $8.1 million and $6.9 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. If and when the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will recover its deferred tax assets, the Company will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in its consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s consolidated TRS had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $30.3 million at December 31, 2023 (of which $6.8 million were incurred prior to January 1, 2018). Carryforwards from losses incurred prior to January 1, 2018, if unused, these will begin to expire in 2035. For net operating losses incurred subsequent to December 31, 2017, there is no expiration date. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $8.1 million with a full valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $6.9 million with a full valuation allowance.

The following table details the composition of the Company’s tax (expense) benefit for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, which includes U.S. federal and state income taxes incurred by the Company’s TRS. The Company estimated its income tax (expense) benefit relating to its TRS using a combined federal and state rate of approximately 0.0% for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. These income taxes are reflected in income tax (expense) benefit on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no material uncertain income tax positions. The tax years subsequent to and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

Per Share Data

Net loss per basic share of common stock is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares (retroactively adjusted for the stock dividends) of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net loss per share of common stock considers the effect of potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

CARES Act Grants

On March 27, 2020, the CARES Ac) was signed into law and it provides funding to Medicare providers in order to provide financial relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Funds provided under the program were to be used for the preparation, prevention, and medical response to COVID-19, and were designated to reimburse providers for healthcare related expenses and lost revenues attributable to COVID-19. The Company didnot receive any funds through the CARES Act during the year ended December 31, 2023. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Company received $4.5 million and $5.1 million in funding from CARES Act grants, respectively. For accounting purposes, the CARES Act funds are treated as a grant contribution from the government. The funding the Company received was recognized as a reduction of property operating and maintenance expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations to offset the negative impacts of COVID-19. There can be no assurance that the program will be extended or any further amounts received under currently effective or potential future government programs.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Adopted as of January 1, 2021:

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Topic 470) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Topic 815). The new standard reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, and amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity. The standard also amends and makes targeted improvements to the related earnings per share guidance. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The standard allows for either modified or full retrospective transition methods. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2021 and determined it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Adopted as Required Through December 31, 2023:

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). Topic 848 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in Topic 848 is optional and may be elected over the period from March 12, 2020 through June 30, 2023 as reference rate reform activities occur. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to (i) the assertion that the Company’s hedged forecasted transactions remain probable and (ii) the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of the Company’s derivatives, which will be consistent with the Company’s past presentation. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur.

Not yet Adopted as of December 31, 2023:

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting — Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). The new standard requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment. A significant expense is an expense that (i) is significant to the segment, (ii) regularly provided or easily computed from information regularly provided to management and (iii) included in the reported measure of profit or loss. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the ASU is permitted, including in an interim period. If a public entity elects to early adopt the ASU in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. The ASU should be adopted retrospectively unless it is impracticable to do so. The Company has not adopted this ASU as of December 31, 2023, but is currently evaluating the impact on its segment disclosures and intends to adopt ASU 2023-07 during the year ending December 31, 2024.

Dispositions

Year Ended December 31, 2023

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company disposed offour SHOPs andone MOB for an aggregate contract sales price of $13.8 million, which resulted in an aggregate loss on sale of $0.3 million. The Company had previously recorded $15.1 million of impairment charges ontwo of thefour disposed SHOP properties in the year ended December 31, 2022.

Year Ended December 31, 2022

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company disposed offour SHOPs for an aggregate contract sales price of $12.4 million, which resulted in an aggregate loss on sale of $0.1 million. The Company had previously recorded $34.0 million of impairment charges on these properties in the year ended December 31, 2021.

Year Ended December 31, 2021

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we sold five SHOPs andthree MOBs for an aggregate contract price of $133.6 million, which resulted in an aggregate gain on sale of $3.6 million. The Company had previously recorded $0.9 million of impairment charges onone of the disposed SHOPs in the year ended December 31, 2021.

The sales of the properties noted above did not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Accordingly, the results of operations of these properties remain classified within continuing operations for all periods presented until the respective sale dates.

Assets Held for Sale

When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company reflects them separately on its balance sheet and stops recognizing depreciation and amortization expense on the identified assets and estimates the sales price, net of costs to sell, of those assets. If the carrying amount of the assets classified as held for sale exceeds the estimated net sales price, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the Company’s estimate of the net sales price of the assets. For held-for-sale properties, the Company predominately uses the contract sale price as fair market value.

There wereno assets held for sale as of December 31, 2023 or 2022.

Assets Held for Use

When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property classified as held for use may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property for impairment. For the Company, the most common triggering events are (i) concerns regarding the tenant (i.e., credit or expirations) in the Company’s single-tenant properties or significant vacancy in the Company’s multi-tenant properties and (ii) changes to the Company’s expected holding period as a result of business decisions or non-recourse debt maturities. If a triggering event is identified, the Company considers the projected cash flows due to various performance indicators, and where appropriate, the Company evaluates the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of the properties based on the expected cash flows on an undiscounted basis over its intended holding period. The Company makes certain assumptions in this approach including, among others, the market and economic conditions, expected cash flow projections, intended holding periods and assessments of terminal values. Where more than one possible scenario exists, the Company uses a probability weighted approach in estimating cash flows. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analysis may not be achieved, and actual losses for impairment may be realized in the future. If the undiscounted cash flows over the expected hold period are less than the carrying value, the Company reflects an impairment charge to write the asset down to its fair value.

Impairment Charges

For the Capital One MOB Loan, the effective rate does not include the effect of amortizing the amount paid to terminate the previous pay-fixed swap. See Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional details.

(2)Variable rate loan, based on daily SOFR, which is fixed as a result of entering into “pay-fixed” interest rate swap agreements. The Company allocated $378.5 million of its “pay-fixed” interest rate swaps to this mortgage consistently as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

(3)Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining financing. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had pledged $1.3 billion in real estate investments, at cost, as collateral for its $821.4 million of gross mortgage notes payable. This real estate is not available to satisfy other debts and obligations unless first satisfying the mortgage notes payable secured by these properties. The Company makes payments of principal and interest, or interest only, depending upon the specific requirements of each mortgage note, on a monthly basis.

Some of the Company’s mortgage note agreements require compliance with certain property-level financial covenants including debt service coverage ratios. As of December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the Company entered into one new secured mortgage note for a principal amount of $7.5 million (see Note 17 — Subsequent Events for additional details).

See Note 5 — Credit Facilities -Future Principal Payments for a schedule of principal payment requirements of the Company’s mortgage notes and credit facilities.

Barclays MOB Loan

On May 24, 2023, the Company, through certain subsidiaries of the OP, entered into a non-recourse loan agreement (the “Barclays MOB Loan Agreement”), with (i) Barclays Capital Real Estate Inc., (ii) Société Générale Financial Corporation and (iii) KeyBank National Association (each individually, a “Lender,” and collectively, the “Lenders”), in the aggregate amount of $240.0 million (the “Barclay’s MOB Loan”). In connection with the Barclay’s MOB Loan Agreement, the OP entered into a Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty”) and an Environmental Indemnity Agreement (the “Environmental Indemnity”) for the benefit of the Lenders.

The Barclays MOB Loan is secured by, among other things, first priority mortgages on the Company’s interests in 62 MOBs with an aggregate gross asset value of $417.5 million. The Barclays MOB Loan has a 10-year term and is interest-only at a fixed rate of 6.453% per year. Under the Barclays MOB Loan Agreement, the Company is required to make interest-only payments on a monthly basis with the principal balance due on the maturity date of June 6, 2033. The Barclays MOB Loan Agreement requires the OP to comply with certain covenants, including, maintaining combined cash and cash equivalents totaling at least $12.5 million at all times.

Subject to certain conditions, the Company may prepay the Barclays MOB Loan in whole or in part at any time afterone year from closing with a pre-payment premium equal to the Yield Maintenance Program (as defined in the Barclays MOB Loan Agreement) by providing the lenders thereunder with prior written notice of prepayment no less than thirty days before prepayment, subject to a pre-payment premium equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium (as defined in the Barclay’s MOB Loan Agreement). Following the earlier of May 24, 2026 and the date that is two years after the securitization of the Barclay’s MOB Loan, the Company may prepay the Barclays MOB Loan through defeasance, Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Barclays MOB Loan may be prepaid at par during the final six months of the term. The Company paid $7.8 million in deferred financing costs related to the Barclay’s MOB Loan, which is amortized into interest expense over the term of the loan.

At the closing of the Barclays MOB Loan, the Company applied $194.8 million of the Barclays MOB Loan proceeds to repay and terminate the Company’s then-existing credit facility (the “Prior Credit Facility”). The Company also terminated its interest rate swap contracts that formerly hedged interest rate changes under the Prior Credit Facility (see Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional information). The remaining proceeds of approximately $39.0 million (after the payment of Barclays MOB Loan closing costs and reimbursement of deposits) were used for general corporate purposes, subject to the terms of the Barclays MOB Loan Agreement. Additionally, by terminating the Prior Credit Facility, the Company is no longer subject to certain restrictive covenants previously imposed by the Prior Credit Facility (see Note 5 — Credit Facilities for additional information).

Under the Guaranty, the OP has (i) guaranteed the full repayment of the Barclays MOB Loan in the case of certain major defaults by the Company or the OP, including bankruptcy, and (ii) indemnified the Lenders against losses, costs or liabilities related to certain other “bad boy” acts of the Company or the OP, including fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith, and gross negligence. Pursuant to the Environmental Indemnity, the OP and the Company have indemnified the Lenders against losses, costs or liabilities related to certain environmental matters.

BMO MOB Loan

On November 15, 2021, the Company, entered into a $42.8 million loan agreement (the “BMO MOB Loan”) with Bank of Montreal (“BMO”).

The BMO MOB Loan requires monthly interest-only payments, with the principal balance due on the maturity date. The BMO MOB Loan permits BMO to securitize the entire BMO MOB Loan or any portion thereof.

At the closing of the BMO MOB Loan, the net proceeds after accrued interest and closing costs were used to (i) repay approximately $37.0 million of indebtedness under the Prior Credit Facility, under which nine of the properties were included as part of the borrowing base prior to the BMO MOB Loan, (ii) fund approximately $2.5 million in deposits required to be made at closing into reserve accounts required under the loan agreement. The remaining $2.4 million net proceeds available to the Company were used for general corporate purposes and acquisitions.

(5)Calculated on a weighted average basis for all credit facilities outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(6)Variable rate loan, based on SOFR, all of which was economically fixed as a result of entering into “pay-fixed” interest rate swap agreements (the Company designates its SOFR “pay-fixed” interest rate swaps against all 30-day SOFR debt, see Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional details).

(7)The effective rates above only include the impact of designated hedging instruments. The Company also hasseven non-designated interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $364.2 million which limits 30-day SOFR to 3.50%. The Company did not designate these derivatives as hedges and accordingly, the changes in value and any cash received from these derivatives are presented within gain (loss) on derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss (see discussion below and Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional details). Inclusive of the impact of these interest rate caps on these non-designated derivatives, the economic interest rate on the Capital One Fannie Mae Facility was 5.89%, the economic interest rate on the KeyBank Fannie Mae Facility was 5.95% and the economic interest rate on the MOB Warehouse Facility was 6.50%. as of December 31, 2023. The economic interest rate on the Capital One Fannie Mae Facility was 5.26% and the economic interest rate on the KeyBank Fannie Mae Facility was 5.96% as of December 31, 2022.

(8)During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company exercised its option to extend the maturityone year to March 2024.

(9)Effective interest rate below for variable rate debt gives effect to any “pay-fixed” swaps entered into by the Company allocated to the loan for presentation purposes. If no “pay-fixed” swaps are allocated, the effective interest rate below represents the variable rate (or contractual floor if appropriate) and the applicable margin in effect as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

As of December 31, 2023, the carrying value of our real estate investments, at cost was $2.6 billion, with $1.3 billion of this amount pledged as collateral for mortgage notes payable, $614.0 million of this amount pledged to secure advances under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities and $23.0 million of this amount pledged to secure advances under the MOB Warehouse Facility. All of the real estate assets pledged to secure debt or comprising the borrowing base of the relevant facilities are not available to satisfy other debts and obligations, or to serve as collateral with respect to new indebtedness, unless, as applicable, the existing indebtedness associated with such real estate assets is satisfied or the asset is removed from the borrowing base of the relevant facilities, which would impact availability thereunder.

Unencumbered real estate investments, at cost as of December 31, 2023 was $635.9 million, although there can be no assurance as to the amount of liquidity the Company would be able to generate from using these unencumbered assets as collateral for mortgage loans, adding them to the borrowing base of the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities or MOB Warehouse Facility, or other future financings.

Prior Credit Facility

The Prior Credit Facility consisted of two components, a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan were interest-only and would have matured on March 13, 2024. The Prior Credit Facility was fully repaid and terminated in May 2023 with net proceeds provided by the Barclays MOB Loan (see Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net for details).

Amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Facility bore interest at the Company’s option of either (i) SOFR, plus an applicable margin that ranges, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 2.10% to 2.85% or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the Prior Credit Facility), plus an applicable margin that ranged, depending on the Company’s leverage, from 0.85% to 1.60%. For the period from January 1, 2023 through the termination of the Prior Credit Facility in May 2023, the Company elected to use the SOFR option for all of its borrowings under the Prior Credit Facility. At termination, the Company wrote off the remaining deferred financing costs associated with the Prior Credit Facility of $2.6 million which is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Prior Credit Facility contained various restrictions which no longer apply, that limited the Company’s ability to incur additional debt, maintain certain cash balances or pay dividends, among other things.

Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities

On October 31, 2016, the Company, through wholly-owned subsidiaries of the OP, entered into a master credit facility agreement relating to a secured credit facility with KeyBank (the “KeyBank Facility”) and a master credit facility agreement with Capital One for a secured credit facility with Capital One Multifamily Finance LLC, an affiliate of Capital One (the “Capital One Facility”; the Capital One Facility and the KeyBank Facility are referred to herein individually as “Fannie Mae Master Credit Facility” and together as the “Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities”). Advances made under these agreements are assigned by Capital One and KeyBank to Fannie Mae at closing for inclusion in Fannie Mae’s Multifamily MBS program.

As of December 31, 2023, $346.3 million was outstanding under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities. The Company may request future advances under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities by adding eligible properties to the collateral pool subject to customary conditions, including satisfaction of minimum debt service coverage and maximum loan-to-value tests. Until June 30, 2023, borrowings under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities bore annual interest at a rate that varied on a monthly basis and was equal to the sum of the current LIBOR for one month U.S. dollar-denominated deposits and a spread (2.41% and 2.46% for the Capital One Facility and the KeyBank Facility, respectively). Effective July 1, 2023, the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities automatically transitioned to SOFR-based borrowings with monthly interest equal to the sum of the current SOFR for one-month denominated deposits and a spread of (2.41% and 2.46% for the Capital One Facility and the KeyBank Facility, respectively). The Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities mature on November 1, 2026.

In the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company provided cash deposits totaling $11.8 million to Fannie Mae because the debt service coverage ratios of the underlying properties of each facility were below the minimum required amount per the debt agreements. This amount is recorded as restricted cash and is pledged as additional collateral for the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities. This deposit will be refunded the earlier of the Company’s achievement of a debt service coverage ratio above the minimum required amount of 1.40 or the maturity of the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities.

MOB Warehouse Facility

On December 22, 2023, the Company, through wholly-owned subsidiaries of the OP, entered into a loan agreement with Capital One (the “MOB Warehouse Facility”) to provide up to $50.0 million of variable-rate financing.

As of December 31, 2023, $14.7 million was outstanding under the MOB Warehouse Facility. The Company may request future advances under the MOB Warehouse Facility by adding eligible MOBs to the collateral pool subject to customary conditions, including satisfaction of minimum debt service coverage and maximum loan-to-value tests. Borrowings under the MOB Warehouse Facility bear interest at a monthly rate equal to the sum of the current SOFR for one-month denominated deposits and a spread of 3.0%. Interest payments are due monthly, with no principal payments due until maturity in December 2026.

Interest Rate Swaps Designated to Credit Facilities

As of December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any interest rate swaps designated to any of its credit facilities. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $150.0 million of SOFR-based interest swap agreements, which were allocated to the Term Loan, and $50.0 million of LIBOR-based interest swap agreements which were allocated to the Capital One Facility. These swaps were all terminated in the year ended December 31, 2023. The Term Loan was fully repaid in the year ended December 31, 2023, but the Capital One Facility remains outstanding.

Non-Designated Interest Rate Caps Required by Credit Facilities

As of December 31, 2023, the Company hadseven SOFR-based interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate current effective notional amount of $364.2 million which caps SOFR at 3.50% with terms through January 2027. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to these agreements and changes in value as well as any cash received are presented within (loss) gain on non-designated derivatives in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss (see Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional disclosure regarding the Company’s derivatives).

In connection with the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities, the Company was required to enter into interest rate cap agreements. Periodically, the Company renews these interest rate cap agreements upon their expiration. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company paid premiums of $9.6 million to renew five interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $289.4 million which matured in the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company also paid a premium of $0.4 million for a new interest rate cap with a notional amount of $14.7 million in connection with the MOB Warehouse Facility.

Future Principal Payments

The following table summarizes the scheduled aggregate principal payments for the five years subsequent to December 31, 2023 and thereafter, on all of the Company’s outstanding debt (mortgage notes payable and credit facilities):

LIBOR Transition

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (which regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority confirmed a partial extension of this deadline announcing that it will cease the publication of the one-week and two-month USD LIBOR settings immediately following December 31, 2021. The remaining USD LIBOR settings will continue to be published through June 30, 2023.

The Company had no LIBOR-based borrowings or derivative instruments as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $346.3 million of variable-rate, SOFR-based borrowings under the Fannie Mae Master Credit Facilities which automatically transitioned from variable-rate, LIBOR-based borrowings on July 1, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had SOFR-based interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $349.4 million which are not designated as hedging instruments which also transitioned from LIBOR-based contracts effective July 1, 2023.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company converted $150.0 million of its “pay-fixed” swaps on its Prior Credit Facility from LIBOR to SOFR, as well as its $378.5 million Capital One MOB Loan and the related “pay-fixed” swap from LIBOR to SOFR. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company terminated its remaining $50.0 million of LIBOR-based “pay-fixed” swaps. The “pay-fixed” swaps were terminated in an asset position and the Company received $5.4 million in cash following the termination. This amount was included in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), and will amortize into earnings as a reduction to interest expense through March 2024 (the original term of the swap and variable hedged debt). See Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional details.

Note 6 —Fair Value of Financial Instruments

GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring asset and liabilities at fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.

The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Derivative Instruments

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those instruments fall.

(In thousands) · Quoted Prices in Active MarketsLevel 1 · SignificantOther Observable InputsLevel 2 · Significant Unobservable InputsLevel 3 · Total

Derivative assets, at fair value (designated)36,91036,910
Total$—$40,647$—$40,647

A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Real Estate Investments Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Real Estate Investments Held-for-Use

The Company has impaired real estate investments held-for-use, which are carried at fair value on a non-recurring basis on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company owned 12 held-for-use properties (eight MOBs, three SHOPs andone land parcel) for which the Company has reconsidered its expected holding periods, of which four properties (one MOB andtwo SHOPs andone land parcel) are being marketed for sale.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company owned 17 held-for-use properties (nine MOB andeight SHOPs) for which the Company had reconsidered its expected holding periods, of which 10 properties (two MOBs andeight SHOPs) were being marketed for sale.

As a result, the Company evaluated the impact on its ability to recover the carrying values of the properties noted above and recorded impairment charges to write these properties down to their estimated fair values. The Company had also previously written down other held-for-use properties which have subsequently been sold.

See Note 3 — Real Estate investments, Net - “Assets Held for Use and Related Impairments” for additional details.

Real Estate Investments Held-for-Sale

Real estate investments held-for-sale are carried at net realizable value on a non-recurring basis and are generally classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company did not have any real estate investments classified as held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The fair values of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, straight-line rent receivable, net, prepaid expenses and other assets, deferred costs, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred rent and distributions payable approximate their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature.

The fair values of the Company’s remaining financial instruments that are not reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are reported below:

December 31, 2023 · December 31, 2022

The fair value of the mortgage notes payable is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Advisor’s experience with similar types of borrowing arrangements, excluding the value of derivatives.

Note 7 —Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, collars, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings.

The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. Additionally, in using interest rate derivatives, the Company aims to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for speculative purposes or purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company, and its affiliates, may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of its counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.

The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had the following derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Total amount of interest expense presented in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss$66,078$51,740$47,900

As of December 31, 2023, the Company hadone interest rate swap that is designated as a cash flow hedge. The interest rate swap is used as part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the term of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt. The interest rate “pay-fixed” swap has a base interest rate of 1.61% and matures in December 2026.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

MOB Loan Swap Termination

In connection with the refinancing of the $250.0 million loan made by Capital One, National Association and certain other lenders to certain subsidiaries of the OP on June 30, 2017 (the “MOB Loan”), during the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company terminatedtwo interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $250.0 million for a payment of approximately $2.2 million. Following these terminations, $2.2 million was recorded in AOCI and was being recorded as an adjustment to interest expense over the original term of thetwo terminated swaps and the MOB Loan prior to its refinancing. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company reclassified $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, from AOCI as increases to interest expense. No amounts remained in AOCI related to these previously terminated swaps as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

2023 Swap Terminations

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company terminatedtwo LIBOR-based interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $50.0 million andsix SOFR-based interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million. These borrowings were hedging a portion of the Company’s aggregate SOFR and LIBOR-based borrowings. The swaps were terminated in asset positions, and the Company received $1.9 million in cash from the LIBOR-based swap terminations, and $3.5 million in cash from the SOFR-based swap terminations. Because the Company continues to carry variable-rate borrowings in excess of the notional amounts of the terminated swaps, these amounts were included in AOCI and will be amortized into earnings as a reduction to interest expense from the termination dates of the swaps through March 2024 (the original term of the swap and the Prior Credit Facility). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company reclassified $4.2 million from AOCI as decreases to interest expense. The remaining $1.2 million associated with the 2023 terminated swaps in AOCI as of December 31, 2023 will be reclassified into earnings as a decrease to interest expense through March 2024.

Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, the Company estimates that $13.5 million will be reclassified from other comprehensive income as a decrease to interest expense relating to the “pay-fixed” swaps designated as derivatives, inclusive of the reclassifications from the 2023 swap terminations described above.

Non-Designated Derivatives

The Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were not designated as a hedges in qualifying hedging relationships as of as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

Interest Rate DerivativesNumber of InstrumentsNotional Amount (1)Number of InstrumentsNotional Amount (1)
(In thousands) · (In thousands)
Interest rate caps (2)7$364,1707$354,624

(1)Notional amount represents the currently active interest cap contract and excludesone inactive cap agreements (included in the instrument count) with a notional amount of $52.6 million as of December 31, 2022, which took effect upon the expiration of a similar cap included above and effectively extended the term for the same notional amount.

(2)All of the Company’s interest rate cap agreements limit 30-day SOFR to 3.50% with terms through January 2027. The actual 30-day SOFR rates during the fourth quarter of 2022 exceeded the strike price rate of 3.50%, and since then the Company has received cash payments under these agreements. Changes in the fair market value of these non-designated derivatives, as well as any cash received, are presented within gain on non-designated derivatives in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

These derivatives are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements, but the Company has not elected to apply hedge accounting. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had entered into seven SOFR-based interest rate caps with a notional amount of $364.2 million which limit 30-day SOFR borrowings to 3.50% and have varying expiration dates through January 2027.

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022, LIBOR exceeded 3.50% and the Company began receiving payments under these interest rate caps. While the Company does not apply hedge accounting for these interest rate caps, they are economically hedging the Capital One Facility, KeyBank Facility and MOB Warehouse Facility. Changes in the fair value of, and any cash received from, derivatives not designated as hedges under a qualifying hedging relationship are recorded directly to earnings and are presented within (loss) gain on non-designated derivatives in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, (loss) gain on non-designated derivatives were a loss of $2.0 million (including cash received of $5.6 million), a gain of $3.8 million (including cash received of $0.3 million) and a gain of $37,000, respectively.

The Company paid premiums of $9.6 million to renew five interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $289.4 million which matured in the year ended December 31, 2023, and the Company also paid $0.4 million for a new interest rate cap entered into during the year ended December 31, 2023 for a notional amount of $14.7 million. One interest rate cap with a notional amount of $60.0 million matures in April 2024, which represents the next interest rate cap maturity. The Company is required to maintain an aggregate notional value of its interest rate caps equal to the aggregate principal value of its Fannie Mae Credit Facilities, and accordingly expects to renew this maturing cap which is actively hedging exposure to SOFR at a strike price of 3.50%. All of the Company’s LIBOR-based interest rate caps were transitioned to SOFR-based contracts effective July 1, 2023.

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements in place with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.

As of December 31, 2023 there were no derivatives in a net liability position. The Company is not required to post any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement provisions.

Note 8 —Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 111,545,018 and 105,080,531 shares of common stock outstanding, respectively, including unvested restricted shares, shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), net of share repurchases, and shares issued as stock dividends since October 2020. Since October 2020, the Company has issued an aggregate of approximately 19.0 million shares in respect to the stock dividends. No other additional shares of common stock were issued during the years ended December 31, 2023 or 2022. References made to weighted-average shares and per-share amounts in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the cumulative increase in shares outstanding due to the stock dividends (including the January 2024 stock dividend), and are noted as such throughout the accompanying financial statements and notes. Any future issuances of stock dividends will also result in retroactive adjustments. See Note 1 — Organization for additional information.

On March 31, 2023, the Company published a new estimate of per-share net asset value (“Estimated Per-Share NAV”) as of December 31, 2022, which was approved by the Board on March 31, 2023. The Company intends to publish Estimated Per-Share NAV periodically at the discretion of the Board, provided that such estimates will be made at least once annually unless the Company lists its common stock.

Share Repurchase Program

Under the Company’s share repurchase program (the “SRP”), as amended from time to time, qualifying stockholders are able to sell their shares to the Company in limited circumstances. The SRP permits investors to sell their shares back to the Company after they have held them for at least one year, subject to significant conditions and limitations. Repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock, when requested, are at the sole discretion of the Board.

Under the SRP, subject to certain conditions, only repurchase requests made following the death or qualifying disability of stockholders that purchased shares of the Company’s common stock or received their shares from the Company (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions are considered for repurchase. Additionally, pursuant to the SRP, the repurchase price per share equals 100% of the Estimated Per-Share NAV in effect on the last day of the fiscal semester, or the six-month period ending June 30 or December 31.

On August 13, 2020, in order to strategically maintain the Company’s liquidity in light of the continued impact of COVID-19 pandemic and to comply with an amendment to the Prior Credit Facility described in Note 5 — Credit Facilities, Net, which restricted the Company from repurchasing shares, the Board determined that, effective on August 14, 2020, repurchases under the SRP would be suspended. The Board also rejected all repurchase requests made during the period from January 1, 2020 until the effectiveness of the suspension of the SRP. No further repurchase requests under the SRP may be made unless and until the SRP is reactivated. No assurances can be made as to when or if the SRP will be reactivated.

When a stockholder requests redemption and redemption is approved by the Board, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP have the status of authorized but unissued shares.

The table below reflects the number of shares repurchased and the average price per share (retroactively adjusted for the stock dividends), under the SRP and does not include any repurchases under tender offers cumulatively through December 31, 2023:

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

Pursuant to the DRIP, stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions paid in cash by the Company into shares of common stock. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased under the DRIP. The shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP have the same rights and are treated in the same manner as all of the other shares of outstanding common stock. The Board may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from reinvestment pursuant to the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend the DRIP or terminate the DRIP withten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded as equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in the period distributions are declared. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company didnot issue any shares of common stock pursuant to the DRIP. Because shares of common stock are only offered and sold pursuant to the DRIP in connection with the reinvestment of distributions paid in cash, participants in the DRIP will not be able to reinvest in shares thereunder for so long as the Company pays distributions in stock instead of cash.

Stockholder Rights Plan

In May 2020, the Company announced that the Board had approved a stockholder rights plan. In December 2020, the Company issued a dividend ofone common share purchase right for each share of its common stock outstanding as authorized by its Board in its discretion. In May 2023, the stockholder rights plan expired and was not renewed or replaced. No purchase rights were executed pursuant to this agreement.

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. In connection with an underwritten offering in December 2019 (see details below), the Company classified and designated 1,610,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as authorized shares of its Series A Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2023. In September 2020, the Board authorized the classification of 600,000 additional shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the Preferred Stock Equity Line (as defined below) and in May 2021, the Board authorized the classification of 2,530,000 additional shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the offering in May 2021 (described below). The Company had 3,977,144 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

In connection with an underwritten offering in October 2021, the Company classified and designated 3,680,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock on October 4, 2021 as authorized shares of its 7.125% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”). As a result of an underwritten offering in October 2021, the Company had 3,630,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Series A Preferred Stock

Terms

Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends in the amount of $1.84375 per share each year, which is equivalent to the rate of 7.375% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum. The Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed, converted or otherwise repurchased. On and after December 11, 2024, at any time and from time to time, the Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemable in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a cash redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid (whether or not authorized or declared), if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Delisting Event or a Change of Control (each as defined in the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Articles Supplementary”)), the Company may, subject to certain conditions, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, after the first date on which the Delisting Event occurred or within 120 days after the first date on which the Change of Control occurred, as applicable, by paying the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid (whether or not authorized or declared), if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control during a continuing Delisting Event, unless the Company has elected to exercise its redemption right, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will have certain rights to convert Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Company’s common stock. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Delisting Event, the dividend rate will be increased on the day after the occurrence of the Delisting Event by 2.00% per annum to the rate of 9.375% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum (equivalent to $2.34375 per share each year) from and after the date of the Delisting Event. Following the cure of such Delisting Event, the dividend rate will revert to the rate of 7.375% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum. The necessary conditions to convert the Series A Preferred Stock into common stock have not been met as of December 31, 2023. Therefore, Series A Preferred Stock did not impact Company’s earnings per share calculations for the year ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to common stock, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the Company’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

Voting rights for holders of Series A Preferred Stock exist primarily with respect to the ability to electtwo additional directors to the board of directors ifsix or more quarterly dividends (whether or not authorized or declared or consecutive) payable on the Series A Preferred Stock are in arrears, and with respect to voting on amendments to the Company’s charter (which includes the Series A Articles Supplementary) that materially and adversely affect the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock or create additional classes or series of shares of the Company’s capital stock that are senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. Other than the limited circumstances described above and in the Series A Articles Supplementary, holders of Series A Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights.

Series A Preferred Stock Add-On Offering

On May 11, 2021, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 2,352,144 shares (which includes 152,144 shares issued and sold pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional shares) of its Series A Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $56.0 million after deducting the underwriters’ discount, structuring fee and other offering costs aggregating to $2.9 million. Pursuant to the terms of the Prior Credit Facility, all proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Facility.

Series A Preferred Units

In September 2021, the Company partially funded the purchase of an MOB from an unaffiliated third party by causing the OP to issue 100,000 partnership units in the OP designated as “Series A Preferred Units”. These were recorded at fair value on the date of the acquisition at $2.6 million and were included as part of the consideration paid for the acquisition. Additionally, these are considered a non-controlling interest for the Company and were recorded as an increase in non-controlling interests on the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 13 — Non-controlling Interests for additional information).

Preferred Stock Equity Line with B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC

On September 15, 2020, the Company entered into a preferred stock purchase agreement and registration rights agreement with B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC (“B. Riley”), pursuant to which the Company has the right from time to time to sell up to an aggregate of $15 million of shares of its Series A Preferred Stock to B. Riley until December 31, 2023, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the purchase agreement. This arrangement is also referred to as the “Preferred Stock Equity Line.” The Company controls the timing and amount of any sales to B. Riley under the Preferred Stock Equity Line, and B. Riley is obligated to make purchases of up to 3,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock each time (as may be increased by mutual agreement by the parties) in accordance with the purchase agreement, upon certain terms and conditions being met. The Company sold 15,000 shares under the Preferred Stock Equity Line during the year ended December 31, 2021, resulting in gross proceeds of $0.4 million and net proceeds of $0.3 million after fees and commissions.

In total, the Company incurred $1.2 million in costs related to establishing the Preferred Stock Equity Line which were all initially recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. Upon receiving proceeds under the Preferred Stock Equity Line in the third quarter of 2021, the Company reclassified $30,000 of these prepaid costs to additional paid in capital in the Company’s consolidated statement of changes in equity as a reduction of the gross proceeds received under the Preferred Stock Equity Line.

In the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company determined that it was not probable that additional proceeds would be received from the Preferred Stock Equity Line and later terminated the Preferred Stock Equity Line. As a result, the Company expensed the remaining balance of prepaid costs, which totaled $1.2 million, within acquisition and transaction related costs on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income during the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company did not sell any Series A Preferred Stock under the Preferred Stock Equity Line during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Series B Preferred Stock

Series B Preferred Stock — Terms

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends in the amount of $1.78125 per share each year, which is equivalent to the rate of 7.125% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum. The Series B Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed, converted or otherwise repurchased. On and after October 6, 2026, at any time and from time to time, the Series B Preferred Stock will be redeemable in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a cash redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid (whether or not authorized or declared), if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Delisting Event or a Change of Control (each as defined in the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Articles Supplementary”)), the Company may, subject to certain conditions, at its option, redeem the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, after the first date on which the Delisting Event occurred or within 120 days after the first date on which the Change of Control occurred, as applicable, by paying the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid (whether or not authorized or declared), if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control during a continuing Delisting Event, unless the Company has elected to exercise its redemption right, holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will have certain rights to convert Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Company’s common stock. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Delisting Event, the dividend rate will be increased on the day after the occurrence of the Delisting Event by 2.00% per annum to the rate of 9.125% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum (equivalent to $2.28125 per share each year) from and after the date of the Delisting Event. Following the cure of such Delisting Event, the dividend rate will revert to the rate of 7.125% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum. The necessary conditions to convert the Series B Preferred Stock into common stock have not been met as of December 31, 2023. Therefore, Series B Preferred Stock did not impact Company’s earnings per share calculations for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The Series B Preferred Stock ranks on parity with the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, and senior to its common stock, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the Company’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

Voting rights for holders of Series B Preferred Stock exist primarily with respect to the ability to electtwo additional directors to the board of directors ifsix or more quarterly dividends (whether or not authorized or declared or consecutive) payable on the Series B Preferred Stock are in arrears, and with respect to voting on amendments to the Company’s charter (which includes the Series B Articles Supplementary) that materially and adversely affect the rights of the Series B Preferred Stock or create additional classes or series of shares of the Company’s capital stock that are senior to the Series B Preferred Stock. Other than the limited circumstances described above and in the Series B Articles Supplementary, holders of Series B Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights.

Underwritten Offering — Series B Preferred Stock

On October 6, 2021, the Company completed the initial issuance and sale of 3,630,000 shares (which includes 430,000 shares issued and sold pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional shares) of its 7.125% Series B Preferred Stock in an underwritten public offering at a public offering price equal to the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. The offering generated gross proceeds of $90.8 million and net proceeds of $86.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, structuring fees and other costs.

Pursuant to the terms of the Prior Credit Facility, all proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Facility.

Distributions and Dividends

Common Stock

In April 2013, the Board authorized, and the Company began paying distributions on a monthly basis at a rate equivalent to $1.70 per annum, per share of common stock, which began in May 2013. In March 2017, the Board authorized a decrease in the rate at which the Company pays monthly distributions to stockholders, effective as of April 1, 2017, to a rate equivalent to $1.45 per annum per share of common stock. On February 20, 2018, the Board authorized a further decrease in the rate at which the Company pays monthly distributions to stockholders, effective as of March 1, 2018, to a rate equivalent to $0.85 per annum per share of common stock.

From March 1, 2018 until June 30, 2020, the Company paid monthly distributions to stockholders at a rate equivalent to $0.85 per annum per share of common stock. Distributions were payable by the 5th day following each month end to stockholders of record at the close of business each day during the prior month.

On August 13, 2020, the Board changed the Company’s common stock distribution policy in order to preserve the Company’s liquidity and maintain additional financial flexibility in light of the continued COVID-19 pandemic and to comply with an amendment to the Prior Credit Facility (see Note 5 — Credit Facility, Net for additional information) which restricted the Company from paying distributions on common stock. Under the new policy, distributions authorized by the Board on the Company’s shares of common stock, if and when declared, are now paid on a quarterly basis in arrears in shares of the Company’s common stock valued at the Company’s estimated per share net asset value of common stock in effect on the applicable date, based on a single record date to be specified at the beginning of each quarter. The following table details these stock dividends:

Tax Characteristics of Dividends

All common dividends in the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 were issued as stock dividends, which do not represent taxable dividends to shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. All dividends paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock were considered 100% return of capital for tax purposes for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Note 9 —Related Party Transactions and Arrangements

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Special Limited Partner owned 10,710 and 10,094 shares, respectively, of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Advisor and its affiliates may incur and pay costs and fees on behalf of the Company. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Advisor held 90 partnership units in the OP designated as “Common OP Units.”

The limited partnership agreement of the OP (as amended from time to time, the “LPA”) allows for the special allocation, solely for tax purposes, of excess depreciation deductions of up to $10.0 million to the Advisor, a limited partner of the OP. In connection with this special allocation, the Advisor has agreed to restore a deficit balance in its capital account in the event of a liquidation of the OP and has agreed to provide a guaranty or indemnity of indebtedness of the OP.

Fees Incurred in Connection with the Operations of the Company

The Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement by and among the Company, the OP and the Advisor (as amended, the “Second A&R Advisory Agreement”) took effect on February 17, 2017, and is automatically renewable for anotherten-year term upon eachten-year anniversary unless the Second A&R Advisory Agreement is terminated (i) with notice of an election not to renew at least 365 days prior to the applicable tenth anniversary, (ii) in accordance with a change of control (as defined in the Second A&R Advisory Agreement) or a transition to self-management, (iii) by 67% of the independent directors of the Board for cause, without penalty, with 45 days’ notice or (iv) with 60 days prior written notice by the Advisor for (a) a failure to obtain a satisfactory agreement for any successor to the Company to assume and agree to perform obligations under the Second A&R Advisory Agreement or (b) any material breach of the Second A&R Advisory Agreement of any nature whatsoever by the Company.

On July 25, 2019, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second A&R Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement Amendment”) among the Company, the OP, and the Advisor. The Advisory Agreement Amendment was unanimously approved by the Company’s independent directors. Additional information on the Advisory Agreement Amendment is included later in this footnote under“Professional Fees and Other Reimbursements.”

Acquisition Expense Reimbursements

The Advisor may be reimbursed for services provided for which it incurs investment-related expenses, or insourced expenses. The amount reimbursed for insourced expenses may not exceed 0.5% of the contract purchase price of each acquired property or 0.5% of the amount advanced for a loan or other investment. Additionally, the Company reimburses the Advisor for third party acquisition expenses. Under the Second A&R Advisory Agreement, total acquisition expenses may not exceed 4.5% of the contract purchase price of the Company’s portfolio or 4.5% of the amount advanced for all loans or other investments. This threshold has not been exceeded through December 31, 2023.

Asset Management Fees and Variable Management/Incentive Fees

Under the LPA and the advisory agreement that was superseded by the 0riginal amended and restated advisory agreement and until March 31, 2015, for its asset management services, the Company issued the Advisor an asset management subordinated participation by causing the OP to issue (subject to periodic approval by the Board) to the Advisor partnership units of the OP designated as “Class B Units” (“Class B Units”). The Class B Units were intended to be profit interests and vest, and no longer are subject to forfeiture, at such time as: (x) the value of the OP’s assets plus all distributions made equals or exceeds the total amount of capital contributed by investors plus a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return thereon (the “Economic Hurdle”); (y) any one of the following occurs: (1) a listing; (2) another liquidity event or (3) the termination of the advisory agreement by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company’s independent directors without cause; and (z) the Advisor is still providing advisory services to the Company (the “Performance Condition”).

Unvested Class B Units will be forfeited immediately if: (a) the advisory agreement is terminated for any reason other than a termination without cause; or (b) the advisory agreement is terminated by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company’s independent directors without cause before the Economic Hurdle has been met.

Subject to approval by the Board, the Class B Units were issued to the Advisor quarterly in arrears pursuant to the terms of the LPA. The number of Class B Units issued in any quarter was equal to: (i) the excess of (A) the product of (y) the cost of assets multiplied by (z)0.1875% over (B) any amounts payable as an oversight fee (as described below) for such calendar quarter; divided by (ii) the value of one share of common stock as of the last day of such calendar quarter, which was initially equal to $22.50 (the price in the Company’s initial public offering of common stock minus the selling commissions and dealer manager fees). The value of issued Class B Units will be determined and expensed when the Company deems the achievement of the Performance Condition to be probable. As of December 31, 2023, the Company determined that achieving the Performance Condition was not yet considered probable for accounting purposes. The Advisor receives cash distributions on each issued Class B Unit equivalent to the cash distribution paid, if any on the Company’s common stock. These cash distributions on Class B Units are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss until the Performance Condition is considered probable to occur. Stock dividends do not cause the OP to issue additional Common OP Units, rather, the redemption ratio to common stock is adjusted. The Board has previously approved the issuance of 359,250 Class B Units to the Advisor in connection with this arrangement. The Board determined in February 2018 that Economic Hurdle had been satisfied, however none of the events have occurred, including a listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange, which would have satisfied the other vesting requirement of the Class B Units. Therefore, no expense has ever been recognized in connection with the Class B Units.

On May 12, 2015, the Company, the OP and the Advisor entered into an amendment to the then-current advisory agreement, which, among other things, provided that the Company would cease causing the OP to issue Class B Units to the Advisor with respect to any period ending after March 31, 2015.

Effective February 17, 2017, the Second A&R Advisory Agreement requires the Company to pay the Advisor a base management fee, which is payable on the first business day of each month. The fixed portion of the base management fee is equal to $1.625 million per month, while the variable portion of the base management fee is equal to one-twelfth of 1.25% of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity (including convertible equity and certain convertible debt but excluding proceeds from the DRIP) issued by the Company and its subsidiaries subsequent to February 17, 2017 per month. There are no variable management fees earned from the issuance of common stock dividends. The base management fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash, Common OP Units or shares, or a combination thereof, the form of payment to be determined at the discretion of the Advisor and the value of any Common OP Unit or share to be determined by the Advisor acting in good faith on the basis of such quotations and other information as it considers, in its reasonable judgment, appropriate.

In addition, the Second A&R Advisory Agreement requires the Company to pay the Advisor a variable management/incentive fee quarterly in arrears equal to (1) the product of fully diluted shares common stock outstanding multiplied by (2) (x)15.0% of the applicable prior quarter’s Core Earnings (as defined below) per share in excess of $0.375 per share plus (y)10.0% of the applicable prior quarter’s Core Earnings per share in excess of $0.47 per share. Core Earnings is defined as, for the applicable period, net income or loss, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding non-cash equity compensation expense, the variable management/incentive fee, acquisition and transaction related fees and expenses, financing related fees and expenses, depreciation and amortization, realized gains and losses on the sale of assets, any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items recorded in net income or loss for the applicable period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss, or in net income, one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain non-cash charges, impairment losses on real estate related investments and other than temporary impairments of securities, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of tenant inducements, amortization of straight-line rent and any associated bad debt reserves, amortization of market lease intangibles, provision for loss loans, and other non-recurring revenue and expenses (in each case after discussions between the Advisor and the independent directors and approved by a majority of the independent directors). The variable management/incentive fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash or shares, or a combination of both, the form of payment to be determined in the sole discretion of the Advisor and the value of any share to be determined by the Advisor acting in good faith on the basis of such quotations and other information as it considers, in its reasonable judgment, appropriate. No variable management incentive fee was incurred for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Property Management Fees

Unless the Company contracts with a third party, the Company pays the Property Manager a property management fee on a monthly basis, equal to 1.5% of gross revenues from the Company’s stand-alone single-tenant net leased properties managed and 2.5% of gross revenues from all other types of properties managed, plus market-based leasing commissions applicable to the geographic location of the property. The Company also reimburses the Property Manager for property level expenses incurred by the Property Manager. The Property Manager may charge a separate fee for the one-time initial rent-up or leasing-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, and the Property Manager is allowed to receive a higher property management fee in certain cases if approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (including a majority of the independent directors).

If the Company contracts directly with third parties for such services, the Company will pay the third party customary market fees and will pay the Property Manager an oversight fee of 1.0% of the gross revenues of the property managed by the third party. In no event will the Company pay the Property Manager or any affiliate of the Property Manager both a property management fee and an oversight fee with respect to any particular property. If the Property Manager provides services other than those specified in the Property Management Agreement, the Company will pay the Property Manager a monthly fee equal to no more than that which the Company would pay to a third party that is not an affiliate of the Company or the Property Manager to provide the services.

On February 17, 2017, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Property Management and Leasing Agreement (the “A&R Property Management Agreement”) with the OP and the Property Manager. The A&R Property Management Agreement automatically renews for successiveone-year terms unless any party provides written notice of its intention to terminate the A&R Property Management Agreement at least 90 days prior to the end of the term. Neither party has provided notice of intent to terminate. The current term of the A&R Property Management Agreement expires February 17, 2023. The Property Manager may assign the A&R Property Management Agreement to any party with expertise in commercial real estate which has, together with its affiliates, over $100.0 million in assets under management.

On April 10, 2018, in connection with the Multi-Property CMBS Loan, the Company and the OP entered into a further amendment to the A&R Property Management Agreement confirming, consistent with the intent of the parties, that the borrowers under the Multi-Property CMBS Loan and other subsidiaries of the OP that own or lease the Company’s properties are the direct obligors under the arrangements pursuant to which the Company’s properties are managed by either the Property Manager or a third party overseen by the Property Manager pursuant to the A&R Property Management Agreement. See the Mortgage Notes Payable table included in Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net for additional information on the Multi- Property CMBS Loan.

Professional Fees and Other Reimbursements

The Company reimburses the Advisor’s costs of providing administrative services including personnel costs, except for costs to the extent that the employees perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee. This reimbursement includes reasonable overhead expenses for employees of the Advisor or its affiliates directly involved in the performance of services on behalf of the Company, including the reimbursement of rent expense at certain properties that are both occupied by employees of the Advisor or its affiliates and owned by affiliates of the Advisor. During the year ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred $10.6 million, $8.8 million and $9.4 million, respectively, of reimbursement expenses from the Advisor for providing administrative services. These reimbursement expenses are included in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. In September 2022, the Advisor terminated certain of its employees who provided services to the Company and for which the Company reimbursed the Advisor for salaries and benefits. In connection with the termination, the Company recognized a compensation charge, net of adjustments for previously accrued bonuses, of $0.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2022. Additionally, the Company incurred $0.3 million of severance costs for terminated employees in the year ended December 31, 2023.

On July 25, 2019, the Company entered into the Advisory Agreement Amendment. Under the Advisory Agreement Amendment, including prior to the Advisory Agreement Amendment, the Company has been required to reimburse the Advisor for, among other things, reasonable salaries and wages, benefits and overhead of all employees of the Advisor or its affiliates, except for costs of employees to the extent that the employees perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee.

The Advisory Agreement Amendment clarifies that, with respect to executive officers of the Advisor, the Company is required to reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for the reasonable salaries and wages, benefits and overhead of the Company’s executive officers, other than for any executive officer that is also a partner, member or equity owner of AR Global, an affiliate of the Advisor.

Further, under the Advisory Agreement Amendment, the aggregate amount of expenses relating to salaries, wages and benefits, including for executive officers and all other employees of the Advisor or its affiliates (the “Capped Reimbursement Amount”), is limited to the greater of: (a) a fixed component (the “Fixed Component”) and (b) a variable component (the “Variable Component”).

Both the Fixed Component and the Variable Component increase by an annual cost of living adjustment equal to the greater of (x)3.0% and (y) the CPI, as defined in the Advisory Agreement Amendment for the prior year ended December 31st. Initially, for the year ended December 31, 2019; (a) the Fixed Component was equal to $6.8 million and (b) the Variable Component was equal to (i) the sum of the total real estate investments, at cost as recorded on the balance sheet dated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (the “Real Estate Cost”) in the year divided byfour, which amount is then (ii) multiplied by 0.29%. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Fixed Component exceeded the Variable Component for both periods, and the Capped Reimbursement Amount was $8.0 million and $7.8 million, respectively. The Company expects that the Capped Reimbursement Amount for the year ended December 31, 2024 will be approximately $8.2 million.

If the Company sells real estate investments aggregating an amount equal to or more than 25.0% of Real Estate Cost, in one or a series of related dispositions in which the proceeds of the disposition(s) are not reinvested in Investments (as defined in the Advisory Agreement Amendment), then within 12 months following the disposition(s), the Advisory Agreement Amendment requires the Advisor and the Company to negotiate in good faith to reset the Fixed Component; provided that if the proceeds of the disposition(s) are paid to shareholders of the Company as a special distribution or used to repay loans with no intent of subsequently re-financing and re-investing the proceeds thereof in Investments, the Advisory Agreement amendment requires these negotiations within 90 days thereof, in each case taking into account reasonable projections of reimbursable costs in light of the Company’s reduced assets.

Professional Fee Credit Due from the Advisor

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Advisor had awarded bonuses to its employees, or employees of its affiliates, in March of each year as an all-cash award, prorated for the amount of time spent providing administrative services relating to the Company. Such bonus amounts were paid by the Advisor to its employees, or employees of its affiliates, throughout the year subsequent to the year in which such services were rendered.

The bonus awards for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Bonus Awards”) were awarded in May 2021. The finalized cash amounts of the 2020 Bonus Awards were less than the estimates provided to the Company by the Advisor throughout the year ended December 31, 2020, which resulted in a credit for professional fees to due to the Company from the Advisor of $1.0 million. The finalized cash amounts were less than the estimated amounts due to, among other things, forfeitures of bonuses related to employees of the Advisor, or its affiliates, who were terminated or resigned prior to payment (including the Company’s former chief financial officer) and a general reduction in final bonuses for remaining personnel to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 Bonus Awards were paid by the Advisor to its employees, or employees of its affiliates, over aten-month period from June 2021 to April 2022.

As a result, during the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a receivable from the Advisor of $1.0 million, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and a corresponding reduction to general administrative expenses. Pursuant to authorization by the independent members of the Company’s Board, the $1.0 million receivable was required to be repaid to the Company on a pro rata basis over asix-month period from November 2021 through April 2022. As of December 31, 2022, the entire amount was repaid by the Advisor.

Reimbursements for the cash portion of 2021 bonuses paid by the Advisor to its employees, or employees of its affiliates, were expensed and reimbursed on a monthly basis during the year ended December 31, 2021 in accordance with estimates provided by the Advisor. These bonus awards were awarded in April 2022, and were paid to employees over a ten-month period from July 2022 to April 2023.

Reimbursements for the cash portion of 2022 bonuses paid by the Advisor to its employees, or employees of its affiliates, were expensed and reimbursed on a monthly basis during the year ended December 31, 2022 in accordance with estimates provided by the Advisor. These bonus awards were awarded in June 2023, and are being paid to employees over a six-month period from October 2023 to March 2024.

Reimbursements for the cash portion of 2023 bonuses paid by the Advisor to its employees, or employees of its affiliates, were expensed and reimbursed on a monthly basis during the year ended December 31, 2023 in accordance with estimates provided by the Advisor. These amounts have not yet been awarded or paid by the Advisor to its employees, or employees of its affiliates.

Fees and Participations Incurred in Connection with a Listing or the Liquidation of the Company’s Real Estate Assets

Fees Incurred in Connection with a Listing

If the common stock of the Company is listed on a national exchange, the Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive a promissory note as evidence of its right to receive a subordinated incentive listing distribution from the OP equal to 15.0% of the amount by which the market value of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock plus distributions exceeds the aggregate capital contributed plus an amount equal to a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return to investors in the Company’s initial public offering of common stock. No such distribution was incurred during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. If the Special Limited Partner or any of its affiliates receives the subordinated incentive listing distribution the Special Limited Partner and its affiliates will no longer be entitled to receive the subordinated participation in net sales proceeds or the subordinated incentive termination distribution described below.

Subordinated Participation in Net Sales Proceeds

Upon a liquidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, including through a merger or sale of stock, the Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive a subordinated participation in the net sales proceeds of the sale of real estate assets from the OP equal to 15.0% of remaining net sale proceeds after return of capital contributions to investors in the Company’s initial public offering of common stock plus payment to investors of a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return on the capital contributed by investors. No such participation in net sales proceeds became due and payable during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Any amount of net sales proceeds paid to the Special Limited Partner or any of its affiliates prior to the Company’s listing or termination or non-renewal of the advisory agreement with the Advisor, as applicable, will reduce dollar for dollar the amount of the subordinated incentive listing distribution described above and subordinated incentive termination distribution described below.

Termination Fees

Under the operating partnership agreement of the OP, upon termination or non-renewal of the advisory agreement with the Advisor, with or without cause, the Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive a promissory note as evidence of its right to receive subordinated termination dist ributions from the OP equal to 15.0% of the amount by which the sum of the Company’s market value plus distributions exceeds the sum of the aggregate capital contributed plus an amount equal to a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return to investors in the Company’s initial public offering of common stock. The Special Limited Partner is able to elect to defer its right to receive a subordinated distribution upon termination until either a listing on a national securities exchange or other liquidity event occurs. If the Special Limited Partner or any of its affiliates receives the subordinated incentive termination distribution, the Special Limited Partner and its affiliates will no longer be entitled to receive the subordinated participation in net sales proceeds or the subordinated incentive listing distribution described above.

Under the Advisory Agreement Amendment, upon the termination or non-renewal of the agreement, the Advisor is entitled to receive from the Company all amounts due to the Advisor, including any change of control fee and transition fee (both described below), as well as the then-present fair market value of the Advisor’s interest in the Company. All fees will be due within 30 days after the effective date of the termination of the Advisory Agreement Amendment.

Upon a termination by either party in connection with a change of control (as defined in the Advisory Agreement Amendment), the Company would be required to pay the Advisor a change of control fee equal to the product offour and the “Subject Fees” described below.

Upon a termination by the Company in connection with a transition to self-management, the Company would be required to pay the Advisor a transition fee equal to (i) $15.0 million plus (ii) the product offour multiplied by the Subject Fees, provided that the transition fee shall not exceed an amount equal to 4.5 multiplied by the Subject Fees.

The Subject Fees are equal to (i) the product offour multiplied by the actual base management fee plus (ii) the product offour multiplied by the actual variable management/incentive fee, in each of clauses (i) and (ii), payable for the fiscal quarter immediately prior to the fiscal quarter in which the change of control occurs or the transition to self-management, as applicable, is consummated, plus (iii) without duplication, the annual increase in the base management fee resulting from the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised (but excluding proceeds from the DRIP) in respect to the fiscal quarter immediately prior to the fiscal quarter in which the change of control occurs or the transition to self-management, as applicable, is consummated.

Note 10 —Economic Dependency

Under various agreements, the Company has engaged or will engage the Advisor, its affiliates and entities under common control with the Advisor to provide certain services that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, supervision of the management and leasing of properties owned by the Company and asset acquisition and disposition decisions, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company including accounting services and investor relations.

As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon the Advisor and its affiliates. In the event that the Advisor and its affiliates are unable to provide the Company with the respective services, the Company will be required to find alternative providers of these services.

Note 11 —Equity-Based Compensation

Restricted Share Plan

The Company has adopted an employee and director incentive restricted share plan (as amended from time to time, the “RSP”), which provides the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares of common stock (“restricted shares”) to the Company’s directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, certain consultants to the Company and the Advisor and its affiliates or to entities that provide services to the Company. The total number of shares of common stock that may be subject to awards granted under the RSP may not exceed 5.0% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis at any time and in any event will not exceed 4.1 million shares (as such number may be further adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar events).

Restricted shares vest on a straight-line basis over periods ofthree tofive years and may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested. Holders of restricted shares may receive cash distributions prior to the time that the restrictions on the restricted shares have lapsed. Any distributions payable in shares of common stock are subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares.

The following table reflects the amount of restricted shares outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and activity for the period presented:

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $0.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted share awards granted under the RSP. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.6 years. Compensation expense related to restricted shares was $0.9 million, $1.2 million and $1.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Other Share-Based Compensation

The Company may issue common stock in lieu of cash to pay fees earned by the Company’s directors at the respective director’s election. There are no restrictions on shares issued in lieu of cash compensation since these payments in lieu of cash relate to fees earned for services performed. No such shares were issued during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Note 12 —Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The following table illustrates the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income as of and for the periods presented:

(In thousands)Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Designated Derivative
Balance, December 31, 2020$(39,673)

Accumulated other comprehensive income predominately relates to both realized and unrealized gains on designated derivatives. As previously discussed in Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging, previously designated interest rate hedging instruments were terminated, and the termination costs/gains are being amortized over the term of the terminated instruments because the Company continues to carry variable-rate borrowings in excess of the notional amounts of the terminated instruments. The unamortized gain of the terminated swaps still remaining in accumulated other comprehensive income was $1.2 million as of December 31, 2023.

Non-Controlling Interests in the Operating Partnership

For preferred and common shares issued by the Company, the Company typically issues mirror securities with substantially equivalent economic rights between the Company and the OP. The securities held by the Company are eliminated in consolidation.

Series A Preferred OP Units

The Company is the sole general partner and holds substantially all of the Series A Preferred Units.

In September 2021, the Company partially funded the purchase of a MOB from an unaffiliated third party by causing the OP to issue 100,000 Series A Preferred Units, with a face value of $25.00 per unit, which were recorded at issuance at a then fair value of $2.6 million, or $25.78 per unit, to the unaffiliated third party.

A holder of Series A Preferred Units has the right to receive cash distributions equivalent to the cash distributions, if any, on the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. After holding the Series A Preferred Units for a period ofone year, a holder of Series A Preferred Units has the right to redeem Series A Preferred Units for, at the option of the OP, the corresponding number of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, or the cash equivalent. The remaining rights of the limited partners in the OP are limited, however, and do not include the ability to replace the general partner or to approve the sale, purchase or refinancing of the OP’s assets. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, Series A Preferred Unit holders were paid distributions of $0.2 million.

Common OP Units

The Company is the sole general partner and holds substantially all of the Common OP Units. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Advisor held 90 Common OP Units, which represents a nominal percentage of the aggregate ownership in the OP.

In November 2014, the Company partially funded the purchase of an MOB from an unaffiliated third party by causing the OP to issue 405,908 Common OP Units, with an initial value of $10.1 million, or $25.00 per unit, to the unaffiliated third party.

A holder of Common OP Units has the right to receive cash distributions equivalent to the cash distributions, if any, on the Company’s common stock in an amount retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock dividends, other stock dividends and other similar events. After holding the Common OP Units for a period ofone year, a holder of Common OP Units has the right to redeem Common OP Units for, at the option of the OP, the corresponding number of shares of the Company’s common stock, as retroactively adjusted for the stock dividends, other stock dividends and other similar events, or the cash equivalent. The remaining rights of the limited partners in the OP are limited, however, and do not include the ability to replace the general partner or to approve the sale, purchase or refinancing of the OP’s assets. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, Common OP Unit non-controlling interest holders werenot paid any cash distributions.

Stock dividends do not cause the OP to issue additional Common OP Units, rather, the redemption ratio to common stock is adjusted. The 405,908 Common OP Units outstanding as of December 31, 2023 would be redeemable for 496,644 shares of common stock, giving effect to adjustments for the impact of the stock dividends through January 2024.

Non-Controlling Interests in Property Owning Subsidiaries

The Company has investment arrangements with unaffiliated third parties whereby such investors receive an ownership interest in certain of the Company’s property-owning subsidiaries and are entitled to receive proportionate shares of the net operating cash flows derived from the subsidiaries’ properties. Upon disposition of a property subject to non-controlling interests, the investor will receive a proportionate share of the net proceeds from the sale of the property. The investor has no recourse to any other assets of the Company. Due to the nature of the Company’s involvement with these arrangements and the significance of its investment in relation to the investment of the third party, the Company has determined that it controls each entity in these arrangements and therefore the entities related to these arrangements are consolidated within the Company’s financial statements. A non-controlling interest is recorded for the investor’s ownership interest in the properties.

The following table summarizes the activity related to investment arrangements with unaffiliated third parties:

Third Party Net Investment Amount · Non-Controlling Ownership Percentage · Net Real Estate Assets Subject to Investment Arrangement · Distributions

Diluted net loss per share assumes the conversion of all common stock equivalents into an equivalent number of shares of common stock, unless the effect is antidilutive. The Company considers unvested restricted shares, Common OP Units and Class B Units to be common share equivalents. The Company had the following common stock equivalents on a weighted-average basis that were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to stockholders as their effect would have been antidilutive. The amounts in the table below have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock dividends (see Note 1 — Organization for additional details):

Note 15 —Segment Reporting

The disclosures below for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, are presented for the Company’stwo reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes: MOBs and SHOPs.

The Company evaluates performance and makes resource allocations based on itstwo business segments. The medical office building segment primarily consists of MOBs leased to healthcare-related tenants under long-term leases, which may require such tenants to pay a pro rata share of property-related expenses as well as seniors housing properties, hospitals, inpatient rehabilitation facilities and skilled nursing facilities under long-term leases, under which tenants are generally responsible to directly pay property-related expenses. The SHOP segment consists of direct investments in seniors housing properties, primarily providing assisted living, independent living and memory care services, which are operated through engaging independent third-party operators.

Segment Income

The Company evaluates the performance of the combined properties in each segment based on total revenues from tenants, less property operating costs. As such, this excludes all other items of expense and income included in the financial statements in calculating net loss. The Company uses segment income to assess and compare property level performance and to make decisions concerning the operation of the properties. The Company believes that segment income is useful as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, segment income reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating expenses and acquisition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net loss.

Segment income excludes certain components from net loss in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset and is often incurred at the corporate level. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. Segment income presented by the Company may not be comparable to segment income reported by other REITs that define segment income differently.

Note 16 —Commitments and Contingencies

As of December 31, 2023, the Company hasseven operating andsix direct financing lease agreements related to certain acquisitions under leasehold interests arrangements. Theseven operating leases have durations, including assumed renewals, ranging from 18.9 to 83.7 years, excluding an adjacent parking lot lease with a term of 0.8 years as of December 31, 2023. The Company did not enter into any additional ground leases during the year ended December 31, 2023. The classification of these leases were grandfathered in adoption of ASU 842, whereby they will continue to be classified as operating leases unless modified.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s balance sheet included ROU assets and liabilities of $7.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively, which are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. In determining operating ROU assets and lease liabilities for the Company’s existing operating leases upon the adoption of the lease guidance issued in 2019, as well as for new operating leases since adoption, the Company was required to estimate an appropriate incremental borrowing rate on a fully-collateralized basis for the terms of the leases. Because the terms of the Company’s ground leases are significantly longer than the terms of borrowings available to the Company on a fully-collateralized basis, the Company’s estimate of this rate required significant judgment. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company sold a property which included a prepaid ground lease. Upon disposition, the carrying value of the ROU asset was $5.7 million, and was recorded as a reduction of the gain on sale for that property.

The Company’s ground operating leases have a weighted-average remaining lease term, including assumed renewals, of 33.5 years and a weighted-average discount rate of 7.36% as of December 31, 2023. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid cash of $0.7 million, $0.7 million and $0.8 million for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities and recorded total rental expense from operating leases of $0.8 million, $0.9 million and $0.9 million, on a straight-line basis in accordance with the standard, during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The lease expense is recorded in property operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
