Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for all periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate and provide a fair presentation of interim period results. Interim financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or operating results for an entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2019
filed with the SEC on February 19, 2020. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation, with no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Except for the changes for the impact of the recently adopted accounting pronouncements discussed in this Note, the Company has consistently applied its accounting policies to all periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brookdale and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Investments in affiliated companies that the Company does not control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over governance and operations, are accounted for by the equity method. The ownership interest of consolidated entities not wholly-owned by the Company are presented as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Noncontrolling interest represents the share of consolidated entities owned by third parties. Noncontrolling interest is adjusted for the noncontrolling holder's share of additional contributions, distributions, and the proportionate share of the net income or loss of each respective entity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, revenue, asset impairments, self-insurance reserves, performance-based compensation, the allowance for credit losses, depreciation and amortization, leasing transactions, income taxes, and other contingencies. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from the original estimates.
Lease Accounting
The Company, as lessee, recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheet for its community, office, and equipment leases. As of the commencement date of a lease, a lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset is established on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at the present value of future minimum lease payments. The Company's community leases generally contain fixed annual rent escalators or annual rent escalators based on an index, such as the consumer price index. The future minimum lease payments recognized on the consolidated balance sheet include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) and variable payments estimated utilizing the index or rate on the lease commencement
8
date. The Company recognizes lease expense as incurred for additional variable payments. For the Company's leases that do not contain an implicit rate, the Company utilizes its estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments based on information available at commencement of the lease. The Company's estimated incremental borrowing rate reflects the fixed rate at which the Company could borrow a similar amount for the same term on a collateralized basis. The Company elected the short-term lease exception policy which permits leases with an initial term of 12 months or less to not be recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and instead to be recognized as lease expense as incurred.
The Company, as lessee, makes a determination with respect to each of its community, office, and equipment leases as to whether each should be accounted for as an operating lease or financing lease. The classification criteria is based on estimates regarding the fair value of the leased asset, minimum lease payments, effective cost of funds, economic life of the asset, and certain other terms in the lease agreements.
Lease right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of right-of-use assets are assessed by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset, calculated utilizing the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. If estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset then the fair value of the asset is estimated. The impairment expense is determined by comparing the estimated fair value of the asset to its carrying amount, with any amount in excess of fair value recognized as an expense in the current period. Undiscounted cash flow projections and estimates of fair value amounts are based on a number of assumptions such as revenue and expense growth rates and estimated lease coverage ratios (Level 3).
Operating Leases
The Company recognizes operating lease expense for actual rent paid, generally plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators if applicable. The right-of-use asset is generally reduced each period by an amount equal to the difference between the operating lease expense and the amount of expense on the lease liability utilizing the effective interest method. Subsequent to the impairment of an operating lease right-of-use asset, the Company recognizes operating lease expense consisting of the reduction of the right-of-use asset on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term and the amount of expense on the lease liability utilizing the effective interest method.
Financing Leases
Financing lease right-of-use assets are recognized within property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles, net on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes interest expense on the financing lease liabilities utilizing the effective interest method. The right-of-use asset is generally amortized to depreciation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the lease contains an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the purchase option, the asset is amortized over the useful life.
Sale-Leaseback Transactions
For transactions in which an owned community is sold and leased back from the buyer (sale-leaseback transactions), the Company recognizes an asset sale and lease accounting is applied if the Company has transferred control of the community. For such transactions, the Company removes the transferred assets from the consolidated balance sheet and a gain or loss on the sale is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the transaction price for the sale transaction.
For sale‑leaseback transactions in which the Company has not transferred control of the underlying asset, the Company does not recognize an asset sale or derecognize the underlying asset until control is transferred. For such transactions, the Company continues to recognize the assets within property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles, net and continues to depreciate the asset over its useful life. Additionally, the Company accounts for any amounts received as a financing lease liability and the Company recognizes interest expense on the financing lease liability utilizing the effective interest method with the interest expense limited to an amount that is not greater than the cash payments on the financing lease liability over the term of the lease.
Gain (Loss) on Sale of Assets
The Company regularly enters into real estate transactions which may include the disposal of certain communities, including the associated real estate. The Company recognizes gain or loss from real estate sales when the transfer of control is complete.
9
The Company recognizes gain or loss from the sale of equity method investments when the transfer of control is complete and the Company has no continuing involvement with the transferred financial assets.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Leasehold Intangibles, Net
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset group is assessed by comparing its carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group through operation or disposition, calculated utilizing the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. If this comparison indicates that the carrying amount of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company is required to recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value, with any amount in excess of fair value recognized as an expense in the current period. Undiscounted cash flow projections and estimates of fair value amounts are based on a number of assumptions such as revenue and expense growth rates, estimated holding periods, and estimated capitalization rates (Level 3).
Goodwill
The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter or more frequently if indicators of impairment arise. Factors the Company considers important in its analysis of whether an indicator of impairment exists include a significant decline in the Company's stock price or market capitalization for a sustained period since the last testing date, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, and significant negative industry or economic trends. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If so, the Company performs a quantitative goodwill impairment test based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill has been assigned with the reporting unit's carrying amount. The fair values used in the quantitative goodwill impairment test are estimated using Level 3 inputs based upon discounted future cash flow projections for the reporting unit. These cash flow projections are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions such as revenue and expense growth rates, capitalization rates, and discount rates. The Company also considers market-based measures such as earnings multiples in its analysis of estimated fair values of its reporting units. If the quantitative goodwill impairment test results in a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeding its estimated fair value, an impairment charge will be recorded based on the difference, with the impairment charge limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology for credit losses with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020 and recognized the cumulative effect of the adoption as an immaterial adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASU 2016-13.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
Leases
("ASU 2016-02"), which amends the former accounting principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The Company adopted these lease accounting standards effective January 1, 2019 and recognized the cumulative effect of the adoption as a
$
55.9
million
adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019. See Footnote 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for more details regarding the adoption of this accounting pronouncement.
3.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the components of basic EPS and also gives effect to dilutive common stock equivalents. Under the treasury stock method, diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments that are convertible into common stock were exercised or could result in the issuance of common stock. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents include unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units.

The following table summarizes the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share amounts presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations:

The calculation of diluted weighted average shares for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
excludes
6.9
million
of non-performance-based restricted shares and restricted stock units, as the inclusion of such awards would have been anti-dilutive for the period. Performance-based equity awards are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation based on the attainment of the applicable performance metrics to date. For the
three months ended March 31, 2020
, the calculation of diluted weighted average shares excludes
1.8
million
of performance-based restricted shares and restricted stock units. During the
three months ended March 31, 2019
, the Company reported a consolidated net loss. As a result of the net loss, unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units were antidilutive for the period and were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average shares. The weighted average restricted stock and restricted stock units excluded from the calculations of diluted net loss per share was
7.2
million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
.
4.
Acquisitions, Dispositions and Other Transactions
During the period from January 1, 2019 through
March 31, 2020
, the Company acquired
26
communities that the Company previously leased, disposed of
15
owned communities, and sold its ownership interest in its unconsolidated entry fee CCRC Venture (the "CCRC Venture") with Healthpeak Properties, Inc. ("Healthpeak"), and the Company's triple-net lease obligations on
eleven
communities were terminated. The acquisitions of formerly leased communities include the
18
communities acquired from Healthpeak described below and
eight
communities acquired pursuant to the exercise of a purchase option for a purchase price of
$
39.3
million
, all of which occurred during the three months ended
March 31, 2020
.
As of
March 31, 2020
, the Company owned
355
communities, leased
306
communities, managed
80
communities, and
two
unencumbered communities in the CCRCs segment were classified as held for sale, resulting in
$
37.4
million
being recorded as assets held for sale. The closings of the various pending and expected transactions described within this note are, or will be, subject to the satisfaction of various closing conditions, including (where applicable) the receipt of regulatory approvals. However, there can be no assurance that the transactions will close or, if they do, when the actual closings will occur.
Dispositions of Owned Communities
During the
three months ended March 31, 2020
, the Company completed the sale of
one
owned community for cash proceeds of
$
5.5
million
, net of transaction costs, and recognized a net gain on sale of assets of
$
0.2
million
.
During the year ended
December 31, 2019
, the Company completed the sale of
14
owned communities for cash proceeds of
$
85.4
million
, net of transaction costs, and recognized a net gain on sale of assets of
$
5.5
million
. The Company utilized a portion of the cash proceeds from the asset sales to repay approximately
$
5.1
million
of associated mortgage debt and debt prepayment penalties. These dispositions included the sale of
six
communities during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
for which the Company received cash proceeds of
$
29.5
million
, net of transaction costs.
Healthpeak CCRC Venture and Master Lease Transactions
On October 1, 2019, the Company entered into definitive agreements, including a Master Transactions and Cooperation Agreement (the "MTCA") and an Equity Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), providing for a multi-part transaction
11
with Healthpeak. The parties subsequently amended the agreements to include
one
additional entry fee CCRC community as part of the sale of the Company's interest in the CCRC Venture. The components of the multi-part transaction include:
•
CCRC Venture Transaction.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on January 31, 2020, Healthpeak acquired the Company's
51
%
ownership interest in the CCRC Venture, which held
14
entry fee CCRCs, for a total purchase price of
$
295.2
million
(representing an aggregate valuation of
$
1.06
billion
less portfolio debt, subject to a net working capital adjustment), which remains subject to a post-closing net working capital adjustment. The Company recognized a
$
370.7
million
gain on sale of assets for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and the Company derecognized the net equity method liability for the sale of the ownership interest in the CCRC Venture. At the closing, the parties terminated the Company's existing management agreements with the
14
entry fee CCRCs, Healthpeak paid the Company a
$
100.0
million
management agreement termination fee, and the Company transitioned operations of the entry fee CCRCs to a new operator. The Company recognized
$
100.0
million
of management fee revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 for the management termination fee. Prior to the January 31, 2020 closing, the parties moved the remaining two entry fee CCRCs into a new unconsolidated venture on substantially the same terms as the CCRC Venture to accommodate the sale of such
two
communities expected to occur in 2021. Subsequent to these transactions, the Company will have exited substantially all of its entry fee CCRC operations.
•
Master Lease Transactions.
Pursuant to the MTCA, on January 31, 2020, the parties amended and restated the existing master lease pursuant to which the Company continues to lease
25
communities from Healthpeak, and the Company acquired
18
formerly leased communities from Healthpeak, at which time the
18
communities were removed from the master lease. At the closing, the Company paid
$
405.5
million
to acquire such communities and to reduce its annual rent under the amended and restated master lease. The Company funded the community acquisitions with
$
192.6
million
of non-recourse mortgage financing and the proceeds from the multi-part transaction. In addition, Healthpeak has agreed to transition
one
leased community to a successor operator at a future date. With respect to the continuing
24
communities, the Company's amended and restated master lease: (i) has an initial term to expire on December 31, 2027, subject to
two
extension options at the Company's election for
ten years
each, which must be exercised with respect to the entire pool of leased communities; (ii) the initial annual base rent for the
24
communities is
$
41.7
million
and is subject to an escalator of
2.4
%
per annum on April 1st of each year; and (iii) Healthpeak has agreed to make available up to
$
35
million
for capital expenditures for a five-year period related to the
24
communities at an initial lease rate of
7.0
%
. As a result of the community acquisition transaction, the Company recognized a
$
19.7
million
gain on debt extinguishment and derecognized the
$
105.1
million
carrying amount of financing lease obligations for
eight
communities which were previously subject to sale-leaseback transactions in which the Company was deemed to have continuing involvement.

Although the Company cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate impacts of the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19"), the Company concluded that the impacts of the pandemic have adversely affected the Company’s projections of revenue, expense, and cash flow for its senior housing community long-lived assets and constitute an indicator of potential impairment. Refer to Note 16 for additional information on the COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, the Company assessed its long-lived assets for recoverability.
In estimating the recoverability of asset groups for purposes of the Company’s long-lived asset impairment testing during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company utilized future cash flow projections that are generally developed internally. Any estimates of future cash flow projections necessarily involve predicting unknown future circumstances and events and require significant management judgments and estimates. In arriving at the cash flow projections, the Company considers its estimates of the impacts of the pandemic, historic operating results, approved budgets and business plans, future demographic factors, expected growth rates, estimated asset holding periods, and other factors.
As of March 31, 2020, there was a wide range of possible outcomes as a result of the pandemic, as there was a high degree of uncertainty about its ultimate impacts. Management’s estimates of the impacts of the pandemic are highly dependent on variables that are difficult to predict, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of the disease, the duration and degree to which visitors are restricted from the Company's communities, the effect of the pandemic on the demand for senior living communities, the degree to which the Company may receive government financial relief and the timing thereof, and the duration and costs of the Company’s response efforts. Future events may indicate differences from management's current judgments and estimates which could, in turn, result in future impairments.
Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company evaluated operating lease right-of-use assets for impairment and identified communities with a carrying amount of the assets in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. The Company compared the estimated fair value of the assets to their carrying amount for these identified communities and recorded an impairment charge for the excess of carrying amount over fair value. As a result, the Company recognized the right-of-use assets for the operating leases for
35
communities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 at the estimated fair value of
$
106.7
million
. The Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge in its operating results of
$
65.7
million
for the three months ended March 31, 2020 to operating lease right-of-use assets, of which
$
31.3
million
was within the Independent Living segment,
$
22.2
million
was within the Assisted Living and Memory Care segment, and
$
12.2
million
was within the CCRC segment.
The fair values of the operating lease right-of-use assets of these communities were estimated utilizing a discounted cash flow approach based upon historical and projected community cash flows and market data, including management fees and a market supported lease coverage ratio, all of which are considered Level 3 inputs within the valuation hierarchy. The estimated future cash flows were discounted at a rate that is consistent with a weighted average cost of capital from a market participant perspective. The range of discount rates utilized was
11.2
%
to
12.3
%
, depending upon the property type, geographical location, and the quality of the respective community. These impairment charges are primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower than expected operating performance at these communities and reflect the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceeded their estimated fair value.
13
Property, Plant and Equipment and Leasehold Intangibles, Net
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company evaluated property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles for impairment and identified communities with a carrying amount of the assets in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. The Company compared the estimated fair value of the assets to their carrying amount for these identified communities and recorded an impairment charge for the excess of carrying amount over fair value. The Company recorded property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles non-cash impairment charges in its operating results of
$
11.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily within the Assisted Living and Memory Care segment. The fair values of the property, plant and equipment of these communities were primarily determined utilizing a discounted cash flow approach considering stabilized facility operating income and market capitalization rates. These fair value measurements are considered Level 3 measurements within the valuation hierarchy. These impairment charges are primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower than expected operating performance at these communities and reflect the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceeded their estimated fair value.

Goodwill
The Company's Independent Living and Health Care Services segments had a carrying value of goodwill of
$
27.3
million
and
$
126.8
million
, respectively, as of both
March 31, 2020
and
December 31, 2019
.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually with a test date of October 1 and sooner if indicators of impairment are present.
Factors the Company considers important in its analysis, which could trigger an impairment of such assets, include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant negative industry or economic trends, and a significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization for a sustained period.
During the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
, the Company identified qualitative indicators of impairment of goodwill, including the COVID-19 pandemic and a significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization for a sustained period during the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
. The pandemic and related infection prevention and control protocols within senior living communities have significantly disrupted demand for senior living communities and the sales process, which typically includes in-person prospective resident visits at communities. The Company believes potential residents and their families are more cautious regarding moving into senior living communities while the pandemic continues, and such caution may persist for some time. The Company cannot predict with reasonable certainty whether or when demand for senior living communities will return to pre-COVID-19 levels or the extent to which the pandemic’s effect on demand may adversely affect the amount of resident fees it is able to collect from its residents. Refer to Note 16 for additional information on the COVID-19 pandemic.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company performed an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test as of
March 31, 2020
. The Company’s quantitative goodwill impairment test as of
March 31, 2020
included reduced estimates of projected future cash flows as a result of changes to significant assumptions using information known or knowable about the COVID-19 pandemic, including current industry and economic trends, changes in business plans, and changes in expected revenue and facility operating expense growth rates. Additionally, the Company considered the additional risk within the future cash flow estimates when selecting risk-adjusted discount rates. The Company determined
no
impairment was necessary for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
.
Determining the fair value of the Company’s reporting units involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. These estimates and assumptions include revenue and expense growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows and risk-adjusted discount rates. Future events may indicate differences from management's current judgments and estimates which could, in turn, result in future impairments. Future events that may result in impairment charges include differences in the projected occupancy rates or monthly service fee rates, changes in the cost structure of existing communities, changes in reimbursement rates from Medicare for healthcare services, and changes in healthcare reform. Significant adverse changes in the Company’s future revenues and/or operating margins, significant changes in the market for senior housing or the valuation of the real estate of senior living communities, as well as other events and circumstances, including but not limited to increased competition, changes in reimbursement rates from Medicare for healthcare services, and changing
14
economic or market conditions, including market control premiums, could result in changes in fair value and the determination that goodwill is impaired.

Credit Facilities
The Company's Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Capital One, National Association, as administrative agent, lender and swingline lender and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto (the "Credit Agreement"), provides commitments for a
$
250
million
revolving credit facility with a
$
60
million
sublimit for letters of credit and a
$
50
million
swingline feature. The Company has a one-time right under the Credit Agreement to increase commitments on the revolving credit facility by an additional
$
100
million
, subject to obtaining commitments for the amount of such increase from acceptable lenders. The Credit Agreement provides the Company a one-time right to reduce the amount of the revolving credit commitments, and the Company
15
may terminate the revolving credit facility at any time, in each case without payment of a premium or penalty. The Credit Agreement matures on January 3, 2024. Amounts drawn under the facility bear interest at 90-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin varies based on the percentage of the total commitment drawn, with a
2.25
%
margin at utilization equal to or lower than
35
%
, a
2.75
%
margin at utilization greater than
35
%
but less than or equal to
50
%
, and a
3.25
%
margin at utilization greater than
50
%
. A quarterly commitment fee is payable on the unused portion of the facility at
0.25
%
per annum when the outstanding amount of obligations (including revolving credit and swingline loans and letter of credit obligations) is greater than or equal to
50
%
of the revolving credit commitment amount or
0.35
%
per annum when such outstanding amount is less than
50
%
of the revolving credit commitment amount.
The credit facility is secured by first priority mortgages on certain of the Company's communities. In addition, the Credit Agreement permits the Company to pledge the equity interests in subsidiaries that own other communities and grant negative pledges in connection therewith (rather than mortgaging such communities), provided that not more than
10
%
of the borrowing base may result from communities subject to negative pledges. Availability under the revolving credit facility will vary from time to time based on borrowing base calculations related to the appraised value and performance of the communities securing the credit facility and the Company's consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. To the extent the outstanding borrowings on the credit facility exceed future borrowing base calculations, the Company would be required to repay the difference to restore the outstanding balance to the new borrowing base.
During 2019, parties entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement that provides for availability calculations to be made at additional consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio thresholds.
The Credit Agreement contains typical affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage and minimum consolidated tangible net worth. Amounts drawn on the credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes.
As of
March 31, 2020
,
$
166.4
million
of borrowings were outstanding on the revolving credit facility,
$
48.1
million
of letters of credit were outstanding, and the revolving credit facility had
$
35.3
million
of availability. The Company also had a separate unsecured letter of credit facility of up to
$
50.0
million
of letters of credit as of
March 31, 2020
under which
$
47.5
million
had been issued as of that date.
Financings
During March 2020, the Company completed its financing plans in the regular course of business, including closing non-recourse mortgage debt financing transactions as described below. As of

, the Company’s remaining 2020 and 2021 maturities are
$
69.7
million
and
$
333.1
million
, respectively, and the Company has commenced efforts to refinance those and other maturities with non-recourse mortgage debt. There is no assurance that debt financing will continue to be available on terms consistent with the Company’s expectations or at all.

13
communities acquired from Healthpeak on such date.
Seventy
percent
of the principal amount bears interest at a fixed rate of
3.62
%
, and the remaining thirty percent of the principal amount bears interest at a variable rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 209 basis points. The debt matures in February 2030. The proceeds from the financing were utilized to fund the acquisition of communities from Healthpeak and repay
$
33.1
million
of outstanding mortgage debt maturing in 2020. Refer to Note 4 for more information about the Company's acquisition of communities from Healthpeak.
On March 19, 2020, the Company obtained
$
29.2
million
of debt secured by the non-recourse first mortgages on
seven
communities, primarily communities acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 225 basis points and matures in April 2030.
On March 20, 2020, the Company obtained
$
30.0
million
of debt secured by the non-recourse first mortgage on one community acquired from Healthpeak on January 31, 2020. The loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 250 basis points and matures in March 2022.
On March 31, 2020, the Company obtained
$
149.3
million
of debt secured by the non-recourse first mortgages on
18
communities. Of the total principal,
$
73.1

%
, and the remaining
$
76.2
million
bears interest at a variable rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 210 basis points. The debt matures in April 2030. The
$
149.3
million
of proceeds from the financing were primarily utilized to repay
$
136.3
million
of outstanding mortgage debt maturing in 2020.
16
Financial Covenants
Certain of the Company's debt documents contain restrictions and financial covenants, such as those requiring the Company to maintain prescribed minimum net worth and stockholders' equity levels and debt service ratios, and requiring the Company not to exceed prescribed leverage ratios, in each case on a consolidated, portfolio-wide, multi-community, single-community, and/or entity basis. In addition, the Company's debt documents generally contain non-financial covenants, such as those requiring the Company to comply with Medicare or Medicaid provider requirements.
The Company's failure to comply with applicable covenants could constitute an event of default under the applicable debt documents. Many of the Company's debt documents contain cross-default provisions so that a default under one of these instruments could cause a default under other debt and lease documents (including documents with other lenders and lessors). Furthermore, the Company's debt is secured by its communities and, in certain cases, a guaranty by the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries.
As of
March 31, 2020
, the Company is in compliance with the financial covenants of its debt agreements.
10.
Leases
As of
March 31, 2020
, the Company operated
306
communities under long-term leases (
239
operating leases and
67
financing leases). The substantial majority of the Company's lease arrangements are structured as master leases. Under a master lease, numerous communities are leased through an indivisible lease. The Company typically guarantees the performance and lease payment obligations of its subsidiary lessees under the master leases. An event of default related to an individual property or limited number of properties within a master lease portfolio may result in a default on the entire master lease portfolio.
The leases relating to these communities are generally fixed rate leases with annual escalators that are either fixed or based upon changes in the consumer price index or the leased property revenue. The Company is responsible for all operating costs, including repairs, property taxes, and insurance. The leases generally provide for renewal or extension options from
5
to
20
years and in some instances, purchase options.
The community leases contain other customary terms, which may include assignment and change of control restrictions, maintenance and capital expenditure obligations, termination provisions and financial covenants, such as those requiring the Company to maintain prescribed minimum net worth and stockholders' equity levels and lease coverage ratios, and not to exceed prescribed leverage ratios, in each case on a consolidated, portfolio-wide, multi-community, single-community and/or entity basis. In addition, the Company's lease documents generally contain non-financial covenants, such as those requiring the Company to comply with Medicare or Medicaid provider requirements.
The Company's failure to comply with applicable covenants could constitute an event of default under the applicable lease documents. Many of the Company's debt and lease documents contain cross-default provisions so that a default under one of these instruments could cause a default under other debt and lease documents (including documents with other lenders and lessors). Certain leases contain cure provisions, which generally allow the Company to post an additional lease security deposit if the required covenant is not met. Furthermore, the Company's leases are secured by its communities and, in certain cases, a guaranty by the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries.
As of
March 31, 2020
, the Company is in compliance with the financial covenants of its long-term leases.

Litigation
The Company has been and is currently involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of its business, which it believes are generally comparable to other companies in the senior living and healthcare industries, including, but not limited to, putative class action claims from time to time regarding staffing at the Company’s communities and compliance with consumer protection laws and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Certain claims and lawsuits allege large damage amounts and may require significant
18
costs to defend and resolve. As a result, the Company maintains general liability, professional liability, and other insurance policies in amounts and with coverage and deductibles the Company believes are appropriate, based on the nature and risks of its business, historical experience, availability, and industry standards. The Company's current policies provide for deductibles for each claim and contain various exclusions from coverage. Accordingly, the Company is, in effect, self-insured for claims that are less than the deductible amounts and for claims or portions of claims that are not covered by such policies and/or exceed the policy limits.
Similarly, the senior living and healthcare industries are continuously subject to scrutiny by governmental regulators, which could result in reviews, audits, investigations, enforcement activities or litigation related to regulatory compliance matters. In addition, as a result of the Company's participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, the Company is subject to various governmental reviews, audits and investigations, including but not limited to audits under various government programs, such as the Recovery Audit Contractors (RAC), Zone Program Integrity Contractors (ZPIC), and Unified Program Integrity Contractors (UPIC) programs. The costs to respond to and defend such reviews, audits, and investigations may be significant, and an adverse determination could result in citations, sanctions and other criminal or civil fines and penalties, the refund of overpayments, payment suspensions, termination of participation in Medicare and Medicaid programs, and/or damage to the Company's business reputation.

Income Taxes
The difference between the Company's effective tax rate for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
and
March 31, 2019
was primarily due to the tax impact of the multi-part transaction with Healthpeak that occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The impact represented the tax expense recorded on the gain of the sale of the Company's interest in the CCRC Venture offset by a decrease in the valuation allowance that was a direct result of the multi-part transaction with Healthpeak. This was slightly offset by the adjustment for stock-based compensation, which was greater in the
three months ended March 31, 2019
compared to the
three months ended March 31, 2020
.
The Company recorded an aggregate deferred federal, state, and local tax expense of
$
90.9
million
for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
. The expense includes
$
93.1
million
as a result of the gain on the sale of the Company's interest in the CCRC
20
Venture offset by a benefit of
$
2.2
million
as a result of the operating losses (exclusive of the CCRC Venture sale) for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
. The expense for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
is offset by a reduction in the valuation allowance of
$
112.6
million
. The Company recorded an aggregate deferred federal, state, and local tax benefit of
$
6.5
million
of which
$
8.2
million
was a result of the operating loss for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019
. The benefit was reduced by
$
1.7
million
reduction in the deferred tax asset related to employee stock compensation. The benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is offset by an increase in the valuation allowance of
$
6.6
million
.
The Company evaluates its deferred tax assets each quarter to determine if a valuation allowance is required based on whether it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset would not be realized. The Company's valuation allowance as of
March 31, 2020
and
December 31, 2019
was
$
296.3
million
and
$
408.9
million
, respectively.
The change in the valuation allowance for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
is primarily the result of a reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance of
$
117.6
million
as a result of the Healthpeak transaction offset by the anticipated reversal of future tax liabilities offset by future tax deductions. The increase in the valuation allowance during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was comprised of multiple components. The increase includes
$
13.8
million
resulting from the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842,
Leases
("ASC 842") recorded to equity. An additional
$
8.3
million
of allowance was established against the current operating loss incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Offsetting the increases was a decrease of
$
1.7
million
of allowance as a result of removal of future timing differences related to employee stock compensation recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2019.
The Company recorded interest charges related to its tax contingency reserve for cash tax positions for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
and
2019
which are included in income tax expense or benefit for the period. As of
March 31, 2020
, tax returns for years
2015
through
2018
are subject to future examination by tax authorities. In addition, the net operating losses from prior years are subject to adjustment under examination.

The Company has not further disaggregated management fee revenues and revenue for reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of managed communities as the economic factors affecting the nature, timing, amount, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows do not significantly vary within each respective revenue category.
21
Contract Balances
The payment terms and conditions within the Company's revenue-generating contracts vary by contract type and payor source, although terms generally include payment to be made within 30 days.
Resident fee revenue for recurring and routine monthly services is generally billed monthly in advance under the Company's independent living, assisted living, and memory care residency agreements. Resident fee revenue for standalone or certain health care services is generally billed monthly in arrears. Additionally, non-refundable community fees are generally billed and collected in advance or upon move-in of a resident under the Company's independent living, assisted living, and memory care residency agreements. Amounts of revenue that are collected from residents in advance are recognized as deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company had total deferred revenue (included within refundable fees and deferred revenue, and other liabilities within the condensed consolidated balance sheets) of
$
72.1
million
and
$
72.5
million
, including
$
39.8
million
and
$
38.9
million
of monthly resident fees billed and received in advance, as of
March 31, 2020
and
December 31, 2019
, respectively. For the
three months ended March 31, 2020
and
2019
, the Company recognized
$
48.3
million
and
$
61.7
million
, respectively, of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of January 1, 2020 and 2019. The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose amounts for remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.
For the
three months ended March 31, 2020
and
2019
, the Company recognized
$
4.0
million
and
$
3.5
million
, respectively, of charges within facility operating expense within the condensed consolidated statements of operations for additions to the allowance for credit losses.

Segment Information
The Company has
five
reportable segments: Independent Living; Assisted Living and Memory Care; CCRCs; Health Care Services; and Management Services. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; for which separate financial information is available; and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to assess the performance of the individual segment and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment.
Independent Living
. The Company's Independent Living segment includes owned or leased communities that are primarily designed for middle to upper income seniors who desire an upscale residential environment providing the highest quality of service. The majority of the Company's independent living communities consist of both independent and assisted living units in a single community, which allows residents to age-in-place by providing them with a continuum of senior independent and assisted living services.
Assisted Living and Memory Care.
The Company's Assisted Living and Memory Care segment includes owned or leased communities that offer housing and 24-hour assistance with activities of daily life to mid-acuity frail and elderly residents. Assisted living and memory care communities include both freestanding, multi-story communities and freestanding, single story communities. The Company also provides memory care services at freestanding memory care communities that are specially designed for residents with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.
CCRCs.
The Company's CCRCs segment includes large owned or leased communities that offer a variety of living arrangements and services to accommodate all levels of physical ability and health. Most of the Company's CCRCs have independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing available on one campus or within the immediate market, and some also include memory care services.
Health Care Services
. The Company's Health Care Services segment includes the home health, hospice, and outpatient therapy services, as well as education and wellness programs, provided to residents of many of the Company's communities and to seniors living outside of the Company's communities. The Health Care Services segment does not include the skilled nursing and inpatient healthcare services provided in the Company's skilled nursing units, which are included in the Company's CCRCs segment.
Management Services.
The Company's Management Services segment includes communities operated by the Company pursuant to management agreements. In some of the cases, the controlling financial interest in the community is held by third parties and, in other cases, the community is owned in a venture structure in which the Company has an ownership interest. Under the management agreements for these communities, the Company receives management fees as well as reimbursed expenses, which represent the reimbursement of expenses it incurs on behalf of the owners.

COVID-19 Pandemic
The United States broadly continues to experience the pandemic caused by COVID-19, which has significantly disrupted, and likely will continue to significantly disrupt for some period, the nation’s economy, the senior living industry, and the Company’s business. The pandemic and the Company’s response efforts began to adversely impact the Company’s occupancy and resident fee revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily during the second half of March as new resident leads, visits (including virtual visits), and move-in activity declined significantly compared to typical levels. This trend continued through April 2020. The Company’s home health average daily census also began to decrease in March 2020 as referrals declined significantly due to suspension of elective medical procedures and discharges increasing as a result of stay-at-home orders and recommendations. The Company expects further deterioration of its resident fee revenue resulting from fewer move-ins and resident attrition inherent in its business, which may increase due to the impacts of COVID-19. Lower than normal controllable move-out activity during the pandemic may continue to partially offset future adverse revenue impacts.
Facility operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes
$
10.0
million
of incremental direct costs to prepare for and respond to the pandemic, including costs for acquisition of additional personal protective equipment ("PPE"), medical equipment, and cleaning and disposable food service supplies, enhanced cleaning and environmental sanitation costs, and increased labor expense. Such costs have escalated following March 31, 2020, and the Company expects such costs to further include increased workers compensation expense, health plan expense, insurance premiums and retention, and consulting and professional services costs, as well as costs for COVID-19 testing of residents and associates where not otherwise covered by government payor or third-party insurance sources. The Company is not able to reasonably predict the total amount of costs it will incur related to the pandemic, and such costs are likely to be substantial.
In response to the pandemic, on March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (CARES Act) into law. The legislation provides liquidity and financial relief to certain businesses, among other things. As of March 31, 2020, the Company estimated that grants or other funding mechanisms to eligible health care providers for health care related expenses or lost revenues attributable to COVID-19 would partially offset potential reductions in cash flows for the Health Care Services segment. The impacts to the Company of certain provisions of the CARES Act are summarized below.
•
During April 2020, the Company received
$
29.5
million
of grants from the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund (the "Emergency Fund") administered by the Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS"), which was expanded by the CARES Act to provide grants or other funding mechanisms to eligible health care providers for health care related expenses or lost revenues attributable to COVID-19. The amount of the grants the Company received was based primarily on its relative share of aggregate 2019 Medicare fee-for-service reimbursements, and the grants are primarily related to home health, hospice, outpatient therapy, and skilled nursing care provided through its Health Care Services and CCRCs segments. Grants received are subject to the terms and conditions of the program, including that such funds may only be used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to COVID-19 and will reimburse only for health care related expenses or lost revenues that are attributable to COVID-19. The Company continues to evaluate the terms, conditions, and permitted uses associated with the grants, including requirements of HHS, and is in the process of determining what portions of these grants that the Company will be able to retain and use.
•
During April 2020, the Company received
$
85.0
million
under the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program administered by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS"), which was temporarily expanded by the CARES Act. Under the program, the Company has requested acceleration/advancement of 100% of its Medicare payment amount for a 3-month period. Repayments of accelerated/advanced payments are required to begin 120 days after their issuance through offsets of new Medicare claims, and all accelerated/advanced payments are due 210 days following their issuance.
•
Under the CARES Act, the Company may elect to defer payment of the employer portion of social security payroll taxes incurred from March 27, 2020 to December 31, 2020. One-half of such deferral amount will become due on each of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. The Company intends to utilize this deferral program to delay payment of approximately
$
76
million
of the employer portion of payroll taxes estimated to be incurred between March 27, 2020 and December 31, 2020.
•
The CARES Act temporarily suspended the 2% Medicare sequestration for the period May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, which will primarily benefit the Company’s Health Care Services segment.
The Company cannot predict with reasonable certainty the impacts that COVID-19 ultimately will have on its business, results of operations, cash flow, and liquidity, and the Company’s preparation and response efforts may delay or negatively impact its strategic initiatives, including plans for future growth. The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 will depend on many factors, some of which cannot be foreseen, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of
24
the disease; the impact of COVID-19 on the nation’s economy and debt and equity markets and the local economies in the Company’s markets; the development and availability of COVID-19 infection and antibody testing, therapeutic agents, and vaccines and the prioritization of such resources among businesses and demographic groups; government financial and regulatory relief efforts that may become available to business and individuals; perceptions regarding the safety of senior living communities during and after the pandemic; changes in demand for senior living communities and the Company’s ability to adapt its sales and marketing efforts to meet that demand; the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s residents’ and their families’ ability to afford its resident fees, including due to changes in unemployment rates, consumer confidence, and equity markets caused by COVID-19; changes in the acuity levels of the Company’s new residents; the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on seniors generally and those residing in the Company’s communities; the duration and costs of the Company’s preparation and response efforts, including increased equipment, supplies, labor, litigation, and other expenses; the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s ability to complete financings, refinancings, or other transactions (including dispositions) or to generate sufficient cash flow to cover required interest and lease payments and to satisfy financial and other covenants in the Company’s debt and lease documents; increased regulatory requirements and enforcement actions resulting from COVID-19, including those that may limit the Company’s collection efforts for delinquent accounts; and the frequency and magnitude of legal actions and liability claims that may arise due to COVID-19 or the Company’s response efforts.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties and include all statements that are not historical statements of fact and those regarding our intent, belief or expectations, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "potential," "intend," "expect," "endeavor," "seek," "anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "project," "predict," "continue," "plan," "target," or other similar words or expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and expectations, and our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our assumptions or expectations will be attained, and actual results and performance could differ materially from those projected. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects or which could cause events or circumstances to differ from the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the response efforts of federal, state, and local government authorities, businesses, individuals and us, on our business, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity, and our strategic initiatives, including plans for future growth, which will depend on many factors, some of which cannot be foreseen, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of the disease, the impact of COVID-19 on the nation's economy and debt and equity markets and the local economies in our markets, the development and availability of COVID-19 infection and antibody testing, therapeutic agents, and vaccines and the prioritization of such resources among businesses and demographic groups, government financial and regulatory relief efforts that may become available to business and individuals, perceptions regarding the safety of senior living communities during and after the pandemic, changes in demand for senior living communities and our ability to adapt our sales and marketing efforts to meet that demand, changes in the acuity levels of our new residents, the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on seniors generally and those residing in our communities, the duration and costs of our preparation and response efforts, including increased equipment, supplies, labor, litigation, and other expenses, the impact of COVID-19 on our ability to complete financings, refinancings, or other transactions (including dispositions) or to generate sufficient cash flow to cover required interest and lease payments and to satisfy financial and other covenants in our debt and lease documents, increased regulatory requirements and enforcement actions resulting from COVID-19, including those that may limit our collection efforts for delinquent accounts, and the frequency and magnitude of legal actions and liability claims that may arise due to COVID-19 or our response efforts; events which adversely affect the ability of seniors to afford resident fees, including downturns in the economy, housing markets, consumer confidence or the equity markets and unemployment among family members, which may be adversely impacted by the pandemic; changes in reimbursement rates, methods or timing under governmental reimbursement programs including the Medicare and Medicaid programs; the impact of ongoing healthcare reform efforts; the effects of senior housing construction and development, oversupply and increased competition; disruptions in the financial markets, including those related to the pandemic, that affect our ability to obtain financing or extend or refinance debt as it matures and our financing costs; the risks associated with current global economic conditions, including changes related to the pandemic, and general economic factors such as inflation, the consumer price index, commodity costs, fuel and other energy costs, costs of salaries, wages, benefits, and insurance, interest rates, and tax rates;

Overview
As of
March 31, 2020
, we are the largest operator of senior living communities in the United States based on total capacity, with
741
communities in
45
states and the ability to serve approximately
65,000
residents. We offer our residents access to a broad continuum of services across the most attractive sectors of the senior living industry. We operate and manage independent living, assisted living, memory care, and continuing care retirement communities ("CCRCs"). We also offer a range of home health, hospice, and outpatient therapy services to more than
20,000
patients as of that date.
Our goal is to be the first choice in senior living by being the nation's most trusted and effective senior living provider and employer. With our range of community and service offerings, we believe that we are positioned to take advantage of favorable demographic trends over time. Our community and service offerings combine housing with hospitality and healthcare services. Our senior living communities offer residents a supportive home-like setting, assistance with activities of daily living such as eating, bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring/walking, and, in certain communities, licensed skilled nursing services. We also provide home health, hospice, and outpatient therapy services to residents of many of our communities and to seniors living outside of our communities. By providing residents with a range of service options as their needs change, we provide greater continuity of care, enabling seniors to age-in-place, which we believe enables them to maintain residency with us for a longer period of time. The ability of residents to age-in-place is also beneficial to our residents and their families who are concerned with care decisions for their elderly relatives.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The United States broadly continues to experience the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19"), which has significantly disrupted, and likely will continue to significantly disrupt for some period, our nation’s economy, the senior living industry, and our business. Although a significant portion of our corporate support associates began working from home in March 2020, we continue to serve and care for seniors through the pandemic, as our residential and healthcare services are considered essential services under stay-at-home orders and recommendations that were adopted by federal, state, and local governments beginning in March 2020. Due to the average age and prevalence of chronic medical conditions among our residents and patients, they generally are at disproportionately higher risk of hospitalization and adverse outcomes if they contract COVID-19. In addition, our community and healthcare associates may be at higher risk of contracting or spreading the disease due to the nature of the work environment when caring for residents and patients.
The health and safety of our residents, patients, and associates is and has been our highest priority. We initiated our COVID-19 preparation efforts in January 2020 and continue to actively monitor requirements and guidance of federal, state, and local governments and agencies, including the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and adapt our policies and procedures when applicable. Our preparation and response efforts center on infection prevention and control protocols, and we have enhanced and reinforced training our associates in such protocols. Seeking to prevent the introduction of COVID-19 into our communities, and to help control further exposure to infections within communities, in March 2020 we began restricting visitors at all our communities to essential healthcare personnel and certain compassionate care situations, screening associates and permitted visitors, suspending group outings, modifying communal dining and programming to comply with social distancing guidelines and, in most cases, implementing in-room only dining and activities programming, requesting that residents refrain from leaving
27
the community unless medically necessary, and requiring new residents and residents returning from a hospital or nursing home to isolate in their apartment for fourteen days. Upon confirmation of positive COVID-19 exposure at a community, we follow government guidance regarding minimizing further exposure, including associates’ adhering to personal protection protocols, restricting new resident admissions, and in some cases isolating residents. Due to the vulnerable nature of our residents, we expect many of these restrictions will continue at our communities for some time, even as federal, state, and local stay-at-home and social distancing orders and recommendations are relaxed. Notwithstanding these restrictions and our other response efforts, we have had, and likely will continue to have, viral introduction to, and transmission within, certain of our communities due to the easily transmissible nature of COVID-19. We have commenced a resident and associate testing program, which will be undertaken at substantially all our communities using a phased approach over the near term, due to the apparent ability of asymptomatic individuals to transmit the virus. Such testing may uncover presence of the virus where otherwise not suspected, which could result in additional temporary restrictions on move-ins at affected communities, increased need for isolating asymptomatic residents, increased use of personal protection protocols by our associates, and increased labor costs.
The pandemic and related infection prevention and control protocols within senior living communities have significantly disrupted demand for senior living communities and the sales process, which typically includes in-person prospective resident visits at communities. We believe potential residents and their families are more cautious regarding moving into senior living communities while the pandemic continues, and such caution may persist for some time. In response to these developments, we have redesigned our sales process to engage in virtual tours and video engagement, enhanced and adapted our marketing programs to address the stay-at-home environment, and sought to strengthen our relationships with referral partners. We cannot predict with reasonable certainty whether or when demand for senior living communities will return to pre-COVID-19 levels or the extent to which the pandemic’s effect on demand may adversely affect the amount of resident fees we are able to collect from our residents.
The pandemic and our response efforts began to adversely impact our occupancy and resident fee revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily during the second half of March as new resident leads, visits (including virtual visits), and move-in activity declined significantly compared to typical levels. This trend continued through April 2020, resulting in our consolidated senior housing occupancy decreasing from 82.2% as of March 31, 2020 to 80.0% as of April 30, 2020. Our home health average daily census also began to decrease in March 2020 as referrals declined significantly due to suspension of elective medical procedures and discharges increasing as a result of stay-at-home orders and recommendations, resulting in home health census of 13,306 patients as of March 31, 2020. We expect further deterioration of our resident fee revenue resulting from fewer move-ins and resident attrition inherent in our business, which may increase due to the impacts of COVID-19. Lower than normal controllable move-out activity during the pandemic may continue to partially offset future adverse revenue impacts.
Facility operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes $10.0 million of incremental direct costs to prepare for and respond to the pandemic, including costs for acquisition of additional personal protective equipment ("PPE"), medical equipment, and cleaning and disposable food service supplies, enhanced cleaning and environmental sanitation costs, and increased labor expense. Such costs have escalated following March 31, 2020, and we expect such costs to further include increased workers compensation expense, health plan expense, insurance premiums and retention, and consulting and professional services costs, as well as costs for COVID-19 testing of residents and associates where not otherwise covered by government payor or third-party insurance sources. We are not able to reasonably predict the total amount of costs we will incur related to the pandemic, and such costs are likely to be substantial. As described further below, we also recorded non-cash impairment charges in our operating results of $76.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 for our operating lease right-of-use assets and property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower than expected operating performance at communities for which assets were impaired.
We have taken, and continue to take, actions to enhance and preserve our liquidity in response to the pandemic. As of March 17, 2020, we drew the full available balance of
$166.4 million
on our revolving credit facility. Additionally, we suspended repurchases under our existing share repurchase program. We have also delayed or canceled a number of elective capital expenditure projects resulting in an approximate $50 million reduction to our expected full-year 2020 capital expenditures. As of March 31, 2020, our total liquidity was
$536.0 million
, consisting of
$392.7 million
of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents,
$108.0 million
of marketable securities, and
$35.3 million
of additional availability on our revolving credit facility. During April 2020, we received grants and accelerated/advanced Medicare payments pursuant to programs created or expanded under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (CARES Act), each as outlined below. We also intend to utilize the CARES Act payroll tax deferral program to delay payment of approximately $76 million of the employer portion of payroll taxes estimated to be incurred between March 27, 2020 and December 31, 2020. We continue to seek opportunities to enhance and preserve our liquidity, including through reducing expenses and elective capital expenditures, continuing to evaluate our financing structure and the state of debt markets, and seeking further government-sponsored financial relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
During March 2020, we completed our financing plans in the regular course of business, including closing three non-recourse mortgage debt financing transactions totaling $208.5 million with the proceeds used to refinance the majority of our 2020 maturities
28
and to partially fund our acquisitions of 26 communities completed during the quarter. As of March 31, 2020, our remaining 2020 and 2021 maturities are $69.7 million and $333.1 million, respectively, and we have commenced efforts to refinance those and other maturities with non-recourse mortgage debt. There is no assurance that debt financing will continue to be available on terms consistent with our expectations or at all.
In response to the pandemic, on March 27, 2020, the President signed the CARES Act into law, which was amended and expanded by the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act signed into law on April 24, 2020. The legislation provides liquidity and financial relief to certain businesses, among other things. The impacts to us of certain provisions of the CARES Act are summarized below.
•
During April 2020, we received $29.5 million of grants from the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund (the "Emergency Fund") administered by the Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS"), which was expanded by the CARES Act to provide grants or other funding mechanisms to eligible health care providers for health care related expenses or lost revenues attributable to COVID-19. The amount of the grants we received was based primarily on our relative share of aggregate 2019 Medicare fee-for-service reimbursements and the grants are primarily related to home health, hospice, outpatient therapy, and skilled nursing care provided through our Health Care Services and CCRCs segments. Grants received are subject to the terms and conditions of the program, including that such funds may only be used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to COVID-19 and will reimburse only for health care related expenses or lost revenues that are attributable to COVID-19. HHS continues to evaluate and provide allocations of, and regulation and guidance regarding, grants made under the Emergency Fund. We continue to assess the terms, conditions, and permitted uses associated with the grants, including requirements of HHS, and are in the process of determining what portions of these grants received that we will be able to retain and use. Although we believe senior living operators were intended to be able to benefit from grants or other funding mechanisms under the Emergency Fund (and we intend to pursue such funding that may become available), the ultimate determination will be made by HHS and there can be no assurance that funds will be made available to senior living operators, or regarding the amount of, or conditions required to qualify for, any such funds.
•
During April 2020, we received $85.0 million under the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program administered by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS"), which was temporarily expanded by the CARES Act. Under the program, we have requested acceleration/advancement of 100% of our Medicare payment amount for a 3-month period. Repayments of accelerated/advanced payments are required to begin 120 days after their issuance through offsets of new Medicare claims, and all accelerated/advanced payments are due 210 days following their issuance.
•
Under the CARES Act, we may elect to defer payment of the employer portion of social security payroll taxes incurred from March 27, 2020 to December 31, 2020. One-half of such deferral amount will become due on each of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. We intend to utilize this deferral program to delay payment of approximately $76 million of the employer portion of payroll taxes estimated to be incurred between March 27, 2020 and December 31, 2020.
•
The CARES Act temporarily suspended the 2% Medicare sequestration for the period May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, which will primarily benefit our Health Care Services segment.
•
We are evaluating our eligibility to claim the employee retention tax credit under the CARES Act for certain of our associates. The refundable tax credit is available to employers that fully or partially suspend operations during any calendar quarter in 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings due to COVID-19, and is equal to 50% of qualified wages paid after March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2020 to qualified employees, with a maximum credit of $5,000 per employee. Qualified employees are those who are not providing services as a result of such orders of a government authority. There can be no assurances that we will qualify for the program, or the amount of any refundable tax credit that will be available.
We cannot predict with reasonable certainty the impacts that COVID-19 ultimately will have on our business, results of operations, cash flow, and liquidity, and our preparation and response efforts may delay or negatively impact our strategic initiatives, including plans for future growth. The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 will depend on many factors, some of which cannot be foreseen, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of the disease; the impact of COVID-19 on the nation’s economy and debt and equity markets and the local economies in our markets; the development and availability of COVID-19 infection and antibody testing, therapeutic agents, and vaccines and the prioritization of such resources among businesses and demographic groups; government financial and regulatory relief efforts that may become available to business and individuals; perceptions regarding the safety of senior living communities during and after the pandemic; changes in demand for senior living communities and our ability to adapt our sales and marketing efforts to meet that demand; the impact of COVID-19 on our residents’ and their families’ ability to afford our resident fees, including due to changes in unemployment rates, consumer confidence, and equity markets caused by COVID-19; changes in the acuity levels of our new residents; the
29
disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on seniors generally and those residing in our communities; the duration and costs of our preparation and response efforts, including increased equipment, supplies, labor, litigation, and other expenses; the impact of COVID-19 on our ability to complete financings, refinancings, or other transactions (including dispositions) or to generate sufficient cash flow to cover required interest and lease payments and to satisfy financial and other covenants in our debt and lease documents; increased regulatory requirements and enforcement actions resulting from COVID-19, including those that may limit our collection efforts for delinquent accounts; and the frequency and magnitude of legal actions and liability claims that may arise due to COVID-19 or our response efforts.
Transaction Activity and Impact of Dispositions on Results of Operations
During the period from January 1, 2019 through
March 31, 2020
, we acquired 26 previously-leased communities, disposed of
15
owned communities (
1,707
units), and sold our ownership interest in our unconsolidated entry fee CCRC Venture (the “CCRC Venture”) with Healthpeak Properties, Inc. (“Healthpeak”), and our triple-net lease obligations on
11
communities (
748
units) were terminated.
Summaries of the significant transactions impacting the periods presented, and the impacts of dispositions of owned and leased communities on our results of operations, are included below. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for more details regarding the terms of such transactions, including transactions we entered into with Healthpeak during 2019.
During the next 12 months, we expect to close on the dispositions of
two
owned unencumbered communities (
417
units) classified as held for sale as of
March 31, 2020
and the termination of our lease obligation on
two
communities (
116
units) for which we have provided notice of non-renewal. We also anticipate terminations of certain of our management arrangements with third parties as we transition to new operators our management on certain former unconsolidated ventures in which we sold our interest and our interim management on formerly leased communities. The closings of the various pending and expected transactions described herein are, or will be, subject to the satisfaction of various closing conditions, including (where applicable) the receipt of regulatory approvals. However, there can be no assurance that the transactions will close or, if they do, when the actual closings will occur.
Summaries of Transactions
•
Healthpeak:
On October 1, 2019, we entered into definitive agreements, including a Master Transactions and Cooperation Agreement (the "MTCA") and an Equity Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), providing for a multi-part transaction with Healthpeak. The parties subsequently amended the agreements to include one additional entry fee CCRC community as part of the sale of our interest in the CCRC Venture (rather than removing the community from the CCRC Venture for joint marketing and sale). The components of the multi-part transaction include:
•
CCRC Venture Transaction:
On January 31, 2020, Healthpeak acquired our 51% ownership interest in the CCRC Venture, which held 14 entry fee CCRCs (6,383 units), for a total purchase price of $295.2 million (representing an aggregate valuation of $1.06 billion less portfolio debt, subject to a net working capital adjustment), which remains subject to a post-closing net working capital adjustment. We recognized a $370.7 million gain on sale of assets for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and we derecognized the net equity method liability for the sale of the ownership interest in the CCRC Venture. At the closing, the parties terminated the existing management agreements on the 14 entry fee CCRCs, Healthpeak paid us a $100.0 million management agreement termination fee, and we transitioned operations of the entry fee CCRCs to a new operator. We recognized $100.0 million of management fee revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 for the management termination fee. The sale of our interest in the CCRC Venture and the $100.0 million of management termination fees generated approximately $579.0 million of taxable income in the quarter. The Company will utilize any 2020 operating losses generated and tax loss carryforwards (including our capital loss carryforward that was generated in 2018) to offset the taxable gain on this transaction. Prior to the January 31, 2020 closing, the parties moved two entry fee CCRCs (889 units) into a new unconsolidated venture on substantially the same terms as the CCRC Venture to accommodate the sale of such two communities at a future date. We expect the sales of the two remaining entry fee CCRCs to occur in 2021.
•
Master Lease Transactions.
On January 31, 2020, the parties amended and restated our existing master lease pursuant to which we continue to lease 25 communities (2,711 units) from Healthpeak, and we acquired 18 formerly leased communities (2,014 units) from Healthpeak, at which time the 18 communities were removed from the master lease. At the closing, we paid $405.5 million to acquire such communities and to reduce our annual rent under the amended and restated master lease. We funded the community acquisitions with $192.6 million of non-recourse mortgage financing and the proceeds from the multi-part transaction. In addition, Healthpeak has agreed to transition one leased community
30
(159 units) to a successor operator. With respect to the continuing 24 communities (2,552 units), our amended and restated master lease: (i) has an initial term to expire on December 31, 2027, subject to two extension options at our election for ten years each, which must be exercised with respect to the entire pool of leased communities; (ii) the initial annual base rent for the 24 communities is $41.7 million and is subject to an escalator of 2.4% per annum on April 1st of each year; and (iii) Healthpeak has agreed to make available up to $35 million for capital expenditures for a five-year period related to the 24 communities at an initial lease rate of 7.0%. As a result of the community acquisition transaction, we recognized a $19.7 million gain on debt extinguishment and derecognized the $105.1 million carrying amount of financing lease obligations for eight communities which were previously subject to sale-leaseback transactions in which we were deemed to have continuing involvement. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we obtained $30.0 million of additional non-recourse mortgage financing on the acquired communities.
•
Acquisitions Pursuant to Purchase Options:
On January 22, 2020, we acquired eight formerly leased communities (336 units) from National Health Investors, Inc. pursuant to our exercise of a purchase option for a purchase price of $39.3 million. We funded the community acquisitions with cash on hand. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we obtained $29.2 million of non-recourse mortgage financing, primarily secured by the acquired communities.
•
Dispositions of Owned Communities.
During the
three months ended March 31, 2020
, we completed the sale of
one
owned community (
78
units) for cash proceeds of
$5.5 million
, net of transaction costs, and for which we recognized a net gain on sale of assets of
$0.2 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
.
Summary of Financial Impact of Completed Dispositions
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the amounts included within our consolidated financial data for the

Other Recent Developments
Goodwill Impairment Estimates
As of March 31, 2020, we had a goodwill balance of $154.1 million. Goodwill recorded in connection with business combinations is allocated to the respective reporting unit and included in our application of the provisions of ASC 350,
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other
.
Goodwill allocated to our Independent Living and Health Care Services reporting units is $27.3 million and $126.8 million as of March 31, 2020, respectively. Our interim goodwill impairment analysis did not result in any impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Based on the results of our interim quantitative goodwill impairment test as of March 31, 2020, we estimated that the fair values of both our Independent Living and Health Care Services reporting units exceeded their carrying amount by approximately 20%.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. These estimates and assumptions include revenue and expense growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows and risk-adjusted discount rates. Future events may indicate differences from management's current judgments and estimates which could, in turn, result in future impairments. Future events that may result in impairment charges include differences in the projected occupancy rates or monthly service fee rates, changes in the cost structure of existing communities, changes in reimbursement rates from Medicare for healthcare services, and changes in healthcare reform. Significant adverse changes in our future revenues and/or operating margins, significant changes in the market for senior housing or the valuation of the real estate of senior living communities, as well as other events and circumstances, including, but not limited to,
32
increased competition, changes in reimbursement rates from Medicare for healthcare services, and changing economic or market conditions, including market control premiums, could result in changes in fair value and the determination that additional goodwill is impaired.
Our impairment loss assessment contains uncertainties because it requires us to apply judgment to estimate whether there has been a decline in the fair value of our reporting units, including estimating future cash flows, and if necessary, the fair value of our assets and liabilities. As we periodically perform this assessment, changes in our estimates and assumptions may cause us to realize material impairment charges in the future. Although we make every reasonable effort to ensure the accuracy of our estimate of the fair value of our reporting units, future changes in the assumptions used to make these estimates could result in the recording of an impairment loss.
As of March 31, 2020, there was a wide range of possible outcomes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as there was a high degree of uncertainty about its ultimate impacts. Management’s estimates of the impacts of the pandemic are highly dependent on variables that are difficult to predict, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of the disease, the duration and degree to which visitors are restricted from the Company's communities, the effect of the pandemic on the demand for senior living communities, the degree to which the Company may receive government financial relief and the timing thereof, and the duration and costs of the Company’s response efforts. Future events may indicate differences from management's current judgments and estimates which could, in turn, result in future impairments.
Capital Expenditures
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have delayed or canceled a number of elective capital expenditure projects. As a result, we expect our full-year 2020 non-development capital expenditures, net of anticipated lessor reimbursements, and development capital expenditures to be approximately $150 million and $20 million, which reflects a $40 million and $10 million reduction to our initial plans for 2020, respectively. We anticipate that our 2020 capital expenditures will be funded from cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and reimbursements from lessors.
Results of Operations
As of
March 31, 2020
our total operations included
741
communities with a capacity to serve approximately
65,000
residents. As of that date we owned
355
communities (
32,455
units), leased
306
communities (
21,582
units), managed
3
communities (
925
units) for which we have an equity interest, and managed
77
communities (
10,108
units) on behalf of third parties. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes, which are included in "Item 1. Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The results of operations for any particular period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. Transactions completed during the period of January 1, 2019 to
March 31, 2020
affect the comparability of our results of operations, and summaries of such transactions and their impact on our results of operations are discussed above in "Transaction Activity and Impact of Dispositions on Results of Operations."
We use the operating measures described below in connection with operating and managing our business and reporting our results of operations. Our adoption and application of the new lease accounting standard impacted our results for the year ended December 31, 2019 due to our recognition of additional resident fee revenue and facility operating expense, which is non-cash and is non-recurring in future years. To aid in comparability between periods, presentations of our results on a same community basis, and RevPAR and RevPOR, exclude the impact of the lease accounting standard.
•
Operating results and data presented on a
same community basis
reflect results and data of a consistent population of communities by excluding the impact of changes in the composition of our portfolio of communities. The operating results exclude hurricane and natural disaster expense and related insurance recoveries, exclude direct costs incurred to prepare for and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, and for the 2019 periods, exclude the additional resident fee revenue and facility operating expense recognized as a result of the application of the lease accounting standard ASC 842. We define our same community portfolio as communities consolidated and operational for the full period in both comparison years. Consolidated communities excluded from the same community portfolio include communities acquired or disposed of since the beginning of the prior year, communities classified as assets held for sale, certain communities planned for disposition, certain communities that have undergone or are undergoing expansion, redevelopment, and repositioning projects, certain communities that have expansion, redevelopment, and repositioning projects that are anticipated to be under construction in the current year, and certain communities that have experienced a casualty event that significantly impacts their operations. Our management uses same community operating results and data, and we believe such results and data provide useful information to investors, because it enables comparisons of revenue, expense, and other operating measures for a consistent portfolio over time without giving effect to the impacts of communities that were not consolidated and operational for the comparison periods,
33
communities acquired or disposed during the comparison periods (or planned for disposition), and communities with results that are or likely will be impacted by completed, in-process, or planned development-related capital expenditure projects.
•
RevPAR
, or average monthly senior housing resident fee revenue per available unit, is defined as resident fee revenue for the corresponding portfolio for the period (excluding Health Care Services segment revenue and entrance fee amortization, and, for the 2019 periods, the additional resident fee revenue recognized as a result of the application of the lease accounting standard ASC 842), divided by the weighted average number of available units in the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period. We measure RevPAR at the consolidated level, as well as at the segment level with respect to our Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care, and CCRCs segments. Our management uses RevPAR, and we believe the measure provides useful information to investors, because the measure is an indicator of senior housing resident fee revenue performance that reflects the impact of both senior housing occupancy and rate.
•
RevPOR
, or average monthly senior housing resident fee revenue per occupied unit, is defined as resident fee revenue for the corresponding portfolio for the period (excluding Health Care Services segment revenue and entrance fee amortization, and, for the 2019 periods, the additional resident fee revenue recognized as a result of the application of the lease accounting standard ASC 842), divided by the weighted average number of occupied units in the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period. We measure RevPOR
at the consolidated level, as well as at the segment level with respect to our Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care, and CCRCs segments.
Our management uses RevPOR, and we believe the measure provides useful information to investors, because it reflects the average amount of senior housing resident fee revenue we derive from an occupied unit per month without factoring occupancy rates. RevPOR is a significant driver of our senior housing revenue performance.
•
Occupancy and weighted average occupancy rates reflect the percentage of units at our owned and leased communities being utilized by residents as of a date or over a reporting period. We measure occupancy rates with respect to our Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care, and CCRCs segments, and also measure this metric on both on a consolidated senior housing and a same community basis. Our management uses occupancy and weighted average occupancy, and we believe the measures provide useful information to investors, because occupancy is a significant driver to senior housing resident fee revenue.
This section includes the non-GAAP performance measure Adjusted EBITDA. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for our definition of the measure and other important information regarding such measure, including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

%
The
decrease
in total revenue was primarily attributable to the disposition of
26
communities through sales of owned communities and lease terminations since the beginning of the prior year period, which resulted in
$22.4 million
less in resident fees during the
three months ended March 31, 2020
compared to the prior year period. The
decrease
in resident fees was partially offset by a
2.0%
increase
in same community RevPAR, comprised of a
3.1%
increase
in same community RevPOR and an
80 basis points
decrease
in same community weighted average occupancy. Additionally, management services revenue, including management fees and reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of managed communities,
decreased
$1.1 million
primarily due to terminations of management agreements subsequent to the beginning of the prior year period, partially offset by $100.0 million of management fee revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020 for the management termination fee payment from Healthpeak.
The
increase
in facility operating expense was primarily attributable to a
5.0%
increase
in same community facility operating expense, which was primarily due to an increase in labor expense arising from wage rate increases, an extra day of expense due
34
to the leap year, and an increase in employee benefit expense and an increase in advertising costs during the period. The
increase
was partially offset by the disposition of communities since the beginning of the prior year period, which resulted in
$20.2 million
less in facility operating expense during the
three months ended March 31, 2020
compared to the prior year period.
In addition to the foregoing factors, we recognized additional resident fee revenue and additional facility operating expense of
$2.8 million
and
$9.2 million
, respectively, during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
as a result of the application of the new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019. Same community resident fee revenue and facility operating expense excludes
$2.5 million
and
$8.5 million
, respectively, of such additional revenue and expenses. Same community facility operating expense also excludes $9.1 million of incremental costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 to address the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily
consistin
g of our acquisition of PPE, medical equipment, cleaning and disposable food service supplies, enhanced cleaning and environmental sanitation costs, and increased labor expense.
The increase in net income was primarily attributable to a $373.5 million increase in net gain on sale of assets, resulting from our sale of our interest in the CCRC Venture, as well as the revenue and facility operating expense factors previously discussed.
The
increase
in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the management termination fee, as well as the other revenue and facility operating expense factors previously discussed.

The
increase
in the segment's resident fees was primarily attributable to an
increase
in the segment's same community RevPAR, comprised of a
3.2%
increase
in same community RevPOR and a 220 basis points decrease in same community weighted average occupancy. The
increase
in the segment's same community RevPOR was primarily the result of in-place rent increases. The decrease in the segment's same community weighted average occupancy reflects the impact of reduced move-in activity in the second half of March 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic and our response efforts.
The
increase
in the segment's facility operating expense was primarily attributable to an increase in the segment's same community facility operating expense, including an increase in labor expense arising from wage rate increases, an extra day of expense due to the leap year, and an increase in employee benefit expense and an increase in advertising costs during the period. Facility operating expense of this segment for the first quarter of 2020 includes $1.2 million of incremental direct costs to prepare for and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily for PPE and medical equipment.
In addition to the foregoing factors, we recognized additional resident fee revenue and additional facility operating expense for this segment of
$1.4 million
and
$2.6 million
, respectively, during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
as a result of the application of the new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019. Same community resident fee revenue and facility operating expense for this segment excludes
$1.3 million
and
$2.5 million

in the segment's same community RevPOR was primarily the result of in-place rent increases.
The
decrease
in the segment's facility operating expense was primarily attributable to the disposition of communities since the beginning of the prior year period, which resulted in
$9.5 million
less in facility operating expense during the
three months ended March 31, 2020
compared to the prior year period. The
decrease
in facility operating expense was partially offset by an
increase
in the segment's same community facility operating expense, including an increase in labor expense arising from wage rate increases, an extra day of expense due to the leap year, and an increase in employee benefit expense. Facility operating expense of this segment for the first quarter of 2020 includes $0.7 million of incremental direct costs to prepare for and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily for PPE and medical equipment.
In addition to the foregoing factors, we recognized additional resident fee revenue and additional facility operating expense for this segment of
$0.5 million
and
$1.1 million
, respectively, during the
three months ended March 31, 2019
as a result of the application of the new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019. Same community resident fee revenue and facility operating expense for this segment excludes

The
decrease
in the segment's resident fees was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue for home health services, which reflects the implementation of the Patient-Driven Grouping Model ("PDGM"), an alternate home health case-mix adjustment methodology with a 30-day unit of payment, which became effective beginning January 1, 2020. Additionally, our home health average daily census also began to decrease in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as referrals declined significantly due to suspension of elective medical procedures and discharges increased due to stay-at-home orders and recommendations. The decrease in resident fees was partially offset by an increase in volume for hospice services.
The
increase
in the segment's facility operating expense was primarily attributable to an increase in labor costs arising from wage rate increases and the expansion of our hospice services throughout 2019. The increase in facility operating expenses was partially offset by a decrease in labor costs for home health services.
In late February 2020, we announced adjustments to our home health services operational structure, to better align our facility operating expenses and business model with the new payment model. We expect the negative impact to revenue in 2020 for the implementation of PDGM will be partially offset by lower facility operating expenses under our adjusted home health services operational structure.

The
increase
in management fees was primarily attributable to $100.0 million of management fee revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020 for the management termination fee payment from Healthpeak. We have completed the transition of management arrangements on 125 net communities since the beginning of the prior year period, generally for management arrangements on certain former unconsolidated ventures in which we sold our interest and interim management arrangements on formerly leased or owned communities. Management fees of
$108.7 million
for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
include $101.8 million of management fees attributable to communities for which our management agreements were terminated during such period and approximately $1.9 million of management fees attributable to communities that we expect the terminations of our management agreements to occur in the next approximately 12 months, including management arrangements on certain former unconsolidated ventures in which we sold our interest, management agreements on communities owned by unconsolidated ventures, and interim management arrangements on formerly leased communities.
39
The
decrease
in reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of managed communities was primarily attributable to terminations of management agreements subsequent to the beginning of the prior year period.

General and Administrative Expense.
The
decrease
in general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to a reduction in our corporate headcount, as we scaled our general and administrative costs in connection with community dispositions, and a reduction in our travel costs. The decrease was partially offset by a $1.5 million increase in transactional and organizational restructuring costs compared to the prior period, to $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Transaction costs include those directly related to acquisition, disposition, financing and leasing activity, and stockholder relations advisory matters, and are primarily comprised of legal, finance, consulting, professional fees and other third party costs. Organizational restructuring costs include those related to our efforts to reduce general and administrative expense and our senior leadership changes, including severance costs.
Facility Operating Lease Expense.
The
decrease
in facility operating lease expense was primarily due to lease termination activity since the beginning of the prior year quarter.
Depreciation and Amortization.
The
decrease
in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to disposition activity through sales and lease terminations since the beginning of the prior year quarter.
Asset Impairment.
During the current year period, we recorded
$78.2 million
of non-cash impairment charges, primarily for right-of-use assets for certain leased communities with decreased future cash flow estimates as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily in the Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care, and CCRCs segments. During the prior year period, we recorded $0.4 million of non-cash impairment charges. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information about the impairment charges.
Costs Incurred on Behalf of Managed Communities.
The
decrease
in costs incurred on behalf of managed communities was primarily due to terminations of management agreements subsequent to the beginning of the prior year period.
Interest Expense.
The
decrease
in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on long-term debt, reflecting the impact of lower interest rates, and financing lease termination activity.
40
Gain (Loss) on Debt Modification and Extinguishment, Net.
The increase in gain on debt modification and extinguishment was primarily due to a $19.7 million gain on debt extinguishment recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 for the extinguishment of financing lease obligations for the acquisition from Healthpeak of eight communities which were previously subject to sale-leaseback transactions in which the Company was deemed to have continuing involvement.
Gain (Loss) on Sale of Assets, Net.
The
increase
in gain on sale of assets, net was primarily due to
a
$370.7 million gain on sale of assets recognized for the sale of our ownership interest in the CCRC Venture during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes.
The difference between our effective tax rate for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
and
2019
was primarily due to recording a decrease in the valuation allowance during the period ending
March 31, 2020
. The decrease in the valuation allowance was primarily due to the tax impact of the multi-part transaction with Healthpeak.
We recorded an aggregate deferred federal, state, and local tax expense of
$90.9 million
, of which,
$2.2 million
as a result of the benefit on our operating loss for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
. The benefit was offset by $93.1 million of tax expense that was recorded on the sale of the Company's interest in the CCRC Venture. The tax expense was offset by a decrease in the valuation allowance of
$112.6 million
. The change in the valuation allowance for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
resulted from the tax impact of the Healthpeak transaction and the anticipated reversal of future tax liabilities offset by future tax deductions. We recorded an aggregate deferred federal, state, and local tax benefit of
$6.5 million
as a result of the operating loss for the
three months ended March 31, 2019
. The tax benefit was offset by an increase in the valuation allowance of $8.3 million.
We evaluate our deferred tax assets each quarter to determine if a valuation allowance is required based on whether it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset would not be realized. Our valuation allowance as of
March 31, 2020
and
December 31, 2019
was
$296.3 million
and
$408.9 million
, respectively.

The
increase
in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was attributable primarily to the $100.0 million management termination fee payment from Healthpeak received during the current year period. This change was partially offset by a decrease in revenue for home health services and an increase in same community facility operating expense during the current year period.
The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to $446.7 million of cash paid for the acquisition of communities during the current year period and a $21.1 million increase in purchases of marketable securities compared to the
41
current year period, and a $9.3 million increase in cash paid for capital expenditures compared to the prior year period. These changes were partially offset by a $275.2 million increase in net proceeds from the sale of assets and a $50.0 million increase in proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities.
The change in net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was primarily attributable to a $446.6 million increase in debt proceeds compared to the prior year period and $166.4 million of draws on our secured credit facility during the current year period. These changes were partially offset by to a $234.8 million increase in repayment of debt and financing lease obligations compared to the prior year period and an $8.2 million increase in cash paid during the current year period for share repurchases.
The
increase
in Adjusted Free Cash Flow was primarily attributable to the $100.0 million management termination fee payment from Healthpeak received during the current year period. This change was partially offset by a decrease in revenue for home health services, an increase in same community facility operating expense, and an increase in non-development capital expenditures, net during the current year period.
Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been from:
•
cash balances on hand, cash equivalents, and marketable securities;
•
cash flows from operations;
•
proceeds from our credit facilities;
•
funds generated through unconsolidated venture arrangements;
•
proceeds from mortgage financing, refinancing of various assets, or sale-leaseback transactions;
•
funds raised in the debt or equity markets; and
•
proceeds from the disposition of assets.
Over the longer-term, we expect to continue to fund our business through these principal sources of liquidity. In April, we also have received grants and advanced/accelerated Medicare payments under programs expanded or created under the CARES Act, and we intend to utilize the CARES Act payroll tax deferral program as described above. We continue to seek further government-sponsored financial relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic, although we cannot provide assurance that such efforts will be successful or regarding the amount of, or conditions required to qualify for, any government-sponsored relief.
Our liquidity requirements have historically arisen from:
•
working capital;
•
operating costs such as employee compensation and related benefits, severance costs, general and administrative expense, and supply costs;
•
debt service and lease payments;
•
acquisition consideration, lease termination and restructuring costs, and transaction and integration costs;
•
capital expenditures and improvements, including the expansion, renovation, redevelopment, and repositioning of our current communities and the development of new communities;
•
cash collateral required to be posted in connection with our financial instruments and insurance programs;
•
purchases of common stock under our share repurchase authorizations;
•
other corporate initiatives (including integration, information systems, branding, and other strategic projects); and
•
prior to 2009, dividend payments.
Over the near-term, we expect that our liquidity requirements will primarily arise from:
•
working capital;
•
operating costs such as employee compensation and related benefits, severance costs, general and administrative expense, and supply costs, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic;
•
debt service and lease payments, and payment of deferred payroll taxes under the CARES Act;
•
acquisition consideration;
•
transaction costs and expansion of our healthcare services;
•
capital expenditures and improvements, including the expansion, renovation, redevelopment, and repositioning of our existing communities;
•
cash collateral required to be posted in connection with our financial instruments and insurance programs;
•
purchases of common stock under our share repurchase authorization; and
•
other corporate initiatives (including information systems and other strategic projects).
42
We are highly leveraged and have significant debt and lease obligations. As of
March 31, 2020
, we had two principal corporate-level debt obligations: our secured credit facility providing commitments of
$250.0 million
and our separate unsecured facility providing for up to $
50.0 million
of letters of credit.
As of
March 31, 2020
, we had
$3.9 billion
of debt outstanding, including
$166.4 million
drawn on our secured credit facility and excluding lease obligations, at a weighted average interest rate of
4.30%
. As of such date,
92.6%
, or
$3.6 billion
of our total debt obligations represented non-recourse property-level mortgage financings,
$95.5 million
of letters of credit had been issued under our secured credit facility and separate unsecured letter of credit facility, and $166.4 million was drawn on our secured credit facility. As of
March 31, 2020
, the current portion of long-term debt was
$83.0 million
. As of
March 31, 2020
,
$1.3 billion
of our long-term debt is variable rate debt subject to interest rate cap agreements. The remaining $131.0 million of our long-term variable rate debt and $166.4 million drawn on our secured credit facility is not subject to any interest rate cap agreements.
As of
March 31, 2020
, we had
$1.5 billion
and
$581.6 million
of operating and financing lease obligations, respectively. For the twelve months ending
March 31,
2021
we will be required to make approximately
$299.7 million
and
$65.4 million
of cash lease payments in connection with our existing operating and financing leases, respectively.
Total liquidity of
$536.0 million
as of
March 31, 2020
included
$392.7 million
of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash and lease security deposits of
$111.7 million
in the aggregate),
$108.0 million
of marketable securities, and
$35.3 million
of availability on our secured credit facility. Total liquidity as of
March 31, 2020
increased
$54.7 million
from total liquidity of
$481.3 million
as of
December 31, 2019
. The increase was primarily attributable to the transactions with Healthpeak completed during the current period, including the impact of the related financing transactions.
We continue to seek opportunities to enhance and preserve our liquidity, including through reducing expenses and elective capital expenditures, continuing to evaluate our financing structure and the state of debt markets, and seeking further government-sponsored financial relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2020, our remaining 2020 and 2021 maturities are $69.7 million and $333.1 million, respectively, and we have commenced efforts to refinance those and other maturities with non-recourse mortgage debt. There is no assurance that debt financing will continue to be available on terms consistent with our expectations or at all, or that our efforts will be successful in seeking further government-sponsored financial relief or regarding the terms and conditions of any such relief.
We currently estimate that our existing cash flows from operations, together with cash on hand, amounts available under our secured credit facility, and proceeds from anticipated dispositions of owned communities and financings and refinancings of various assets, will be sufficient to fund our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months, assuming continued access to credit markets and the impacts of the pandemic on the economy and our industry begin to moderate in the near term.
Our actual liquidity and capital funding requirements depend on numerous factors, including our operating results, our actual level of capital expenditures, general economic conditions, and the cost of capital. Volatility in the credit and financial markets may have an adverse impact on our liquidity by making it more difficult for us to obtain financing or refinancing. Shortfalls in cash flows from operating results or other principal sources of liquidity may have an adverse impact on our ability to fund our planned capital expenditures, or to pursue any acquisition, investment, development, or potential lease restructuring opportunities that we identify, or to fund investments to support our strategy. In order to continue some of these activities at historical or planned levels, we may incur additional indebtedness or lease financing to provide additional funding. There can be no assurance that any such additional financing will be available or on terms that are acceptable to us.
Capital Expenditures
Our capital expenditures are comprised of community-level, corporate, and development capital expenditures. Community-level capital expenditures include recurring expenditures (routine maintenance of communities over $1,500 per occurrence, including for unit turnovers (subject to a $500 floor)) and community renovations, apartment upgrades, and other major building infrastructure projects. Corporate capital expenditures include those for information technology systems and equipment, the expansion of our support platform and healthcare services programs, and the remediation or replacement of assets as a result of casualty losses. Development capital expenditures include community expansions, major community redevelopment and repositioning projects, and the development of new communities.
With our development capital expenditures program, we intend to expand, renovate, redevelop, and reposition certain of our communities where economically advantageous. Certain of our communities may benefit from additions and expansions or from adding a new level of service for residents to meet the evolving needs of our customers. These development projects include converting space from one level of care to another, reconfiguration of existing units, the addition of services that are not currently present, or physical plant modifications.

three months ended March 31, 2020

Amount is included in Adjusted Free Cash Flow.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have delayed or canceled a number of elective capital expenditure projects. As a result, we expect our full-year 2020 non-development capital expenditures, net of anticipated lessor reimbursements, and development capital expenditures to be approximately $150 million and $20 million, which reflects a $40 million and $10 million reduction to our initial plans for 2020, respectively. We anticipate that our 2020 capital expenditures will be funded from cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and reimbursements from lessors.
Funding our planned capital expenditures, pursuing any acquisition, investment, development, or potential lease restructuring opportunities that we identify, or funding investments to support our strategy may require additional capital. We expect to continue to assess our financing alternatives periodically and access the capital markets opportunistically. If our existing resources are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may need to sell additional equity or debt securities. Any such sale of additional equity securities will dilute the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders, and we cannot be certain that additional public or private financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any newly issued equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common stock. If we are unable to raise additional funds or obtain them on terms acceptable to us, we may have to delay or abandon our plans.
Credit Facilities
Our Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Capital One, National Association, as administrative agent, lender, and swingline lender and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto (the "Credit Agreement") provides commitments for a
$250 million
revolving credit facility with a
$60 million
sublimit for letters of credit and a
$50 million
swingline feature. We have a one-time right under the Credit Agreement to increase commitments on the revolving credit facility by an additional
$100 million
, subject to obtaining commitments for the amount of such increase from acceptable lenders. The Credit Agreement provides us a one-time right to reduce the amount of the revolving credit commitments, and we may terminate the revolving credit facility at any time, in each case without payment of a premium or penalty. The Credit Agreement matures on January 3, 2024. Amounts drawn under the facility bear interest at 90-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin varies based on the percentage of the total commitment drawn, with a 2.25% margin at utilization equal to or lower than 35%, a 2.75% margin at utilization greater than 35% but less than or equal to 50%, and a 3.25% margin at utilization greater than 50%. A quarterly commitment fee is payable on the unused portion of the facility at 0.25% per annum when the outstanding amount of obligations (including revolving credit and swingline loans and letter of credit obligations) is greater than or equal to 50% of the revolving credit commitment amount or 0.35% per annum when such outstanding amount is less than 50% of the revolving credit commitment amount.
The credit facility is secured by first priority mortgages on certain of our communities. In addition, the Credit Agreement permits us to pledge the equity interests in subsidiaries that own other communities and grant negative pledges in connection therewith (rather than mortgaging such communities), provided that not more than 10% of the borrowing base may result from communities subject to negative pledges. Availability under the revolving credit facility will vary from time to time based on borrowing base calculations related to the appraised value and performance of the communities securing the credit facility and our consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. To the extent the outstanding borrowings on the credit facility exceed future borrowing base calculations, we would be required to repay the difference to restore the outstanding balance to the new borrowing base. During
44
2019, the parties entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement that provides for availability calculations to be made at additional consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio thresholds.
The Credit Agreement contains typical affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage and minimum consolidated tangible net worth. Amounts drawn on the credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes.
As of
March 31, 2020
,
$166.4 million
of borrowings were outstanding on the revolving credit facility, $
48.1 million
of letters of credit were outstanding, and the revolving credit facility had
$35.3 million
of availability. We also had a separate unsecured letter of credit facility providing for up to $
50.0 million
of letters of credit as of
March 31, 2020
under which $
47.5 million
of had been issued as of that date.
Long-Term Leases
As of
March 31, 2020
, we operated
306
communities under long-term leases (
239
operating leases and
67
financing leases). The substantial majority of our lease arrangements are structured as master leases. Under a master lease, numerous communities are leased through an indivisible lease. We typically guarantee the performance and lease payment obligations of our subsidiary lessees under the master leases. Due to the nature of such master leases, it is difficult to restructure the composition of our leased portfolios or economic terms of the leases without the consent of the applicable landlord. In addition, an event of default related to an individual property or limited number of properties within a master lease portfolio may result in a default on the entire master lease portfolio.
The leases relating to these communities are generally fixed rate leases with annual escalators that are either fixed or based upon changes in the consumer price index or leased property revenue. We are responsible for all operating costs, including repairs, property taxes, and insurance. The lease terms generally provide for renewal or extension options from
5
to
20
years, and, in some instances, purchase options.
The community leases contain other customary terms, which may include assignment and change of control restrictions, maintenance and capital expenditure obligations, termination provisions, and financial covenants, such as those requiring us to maintain prescribed minimum net worth and stockholders' equity levels and lease coverage ratios, and not to exceed prescribed leverage ratios as further described below. In addition, our lease documents generally contain non-financial covenants, such as those requiring us to comply with Medicare or Medicaid provider requirements. Certain leases contain cure provisions, which generally allow us to post an additional lease security deposit if the required covenant is not met.
In addition, certain of our master leases and management agreements contain radius restrictions, which limit our ability to own, develop or acquire new communities within a specified distance from certain existing communities covered by such agreements. These radius restrictions could negatively affect our ability to expand, develop, or acquire senior housing communities and operating companies.
For the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
, our cash lease payments for our financing leases and operating leases were
$18.4 million
and
$76.1 million
, respectively. For the twelve months ending
March 31,
2021
, we will be required to make
$299.7 million
and
$65.4 million
of cash lease payments in connection with our existing operating and financing leases, respectively. Our capital expenditure plans for
2020
include required minimum spend of approximately $17 million for capital expenditures under certain of our community leases. Additionally, we are required to spend an average of approximately $17 million per year for each of the following four years and approximately $33 million thereafter under the initial lease terms of such leases.
Debt and Lease Covenants
Certain of our debt and lease documents contain restrictions and financial covenants, such as those requiring us to maintain prescribed minimum net worth and stockholders' equity levels and debt service and lease coverage ratios, and requiring us not to exceed prescribed leverage ratios, in each case on a consolidated, portfolio-wide, multi-community, single-community, and/or entity basis. Net worth is generally calculated as stockholders' equity as calculated in accordance with GAAP, and in certain circumstances, reduced by intangible assets or liabilities or increased by deferred gains from sale-leaseback transactions and deferred entrance fee revenue. The debt service and lease coverage ratios are generally calculated as revenues less operating expenses, including an implied management fee and a reserve for capital expenditures, divided by the debt (principal and interest) or lease payments. In addition, our debt and lease documents generally contain non-financial covenants, such as those requiring us to comply with Medicare or Medicaid provider requirements.
45
Our failure to comply with applicable covenants could constitute an event of default under the applicable debt or lease documents. Many of our debt and lease documents contain cross-default provisions so that a default under one of these instruments could cause a default under other debt and lease documents (including documents with other lenders and lessors).
Furthermore, our debt and leases are secured by our communities and, in certain cases, a guaranty by us and/or one or more of our subsidiaries. Therefore, if an event of default has occurred under any of our debt or lease documents, subject to cure provisions in certain instances, the respective lender or lessor would have the right to declare all the related outstanding amounts of indebtedness or cash lease obligations immediately due and payable, to foreclose on our mortgaged communities, to terminate our leasehold interests, to foreclose on other collateral securing the indebtedness and leases, to discontinue our operation of leased communities, and/or to pursue other remedies available to such lender or lessor. Further, an event of default could trigger cross-default provisions in our other debt and lease documents (including documents with other lenders or lessors). We cannot provide assurance that we would be able to pay the debt or lease obligations if they became due upon acceleration following an event of default.
As of
March 31, 2020
, we are in compliance with the financial covenants of our debt agreements and long-term leases.
Contractual Commitments
Significant ongoing commitments consist primarily of leases, debt, purchase commitments, and certain other long-term liabilities. For a summary and complete presentation and description of our ongoing commitments and contractual obligations, see the "Contractual Commitments" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2019
filed with the SEC on February 19, 2020. Except as discussed therein, there were no other material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual commitments during the
three months ended March 31, 2020
.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
March 31, 2020
, we do not have an interest in any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains the financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. Presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to aid investors in better understanding the factors and trends affecting our performance and liquidity. However, investors should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, including net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate non-GAAP measures in the same manner. We urge investors to review the following reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures from the most comparable financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure that we define as net income (loss) excluding: benefit/provision for income taxes, non-operating income/expense items, and depreciation and amortization; and further adjusted to exclude income/expense associated with non-cash, non-operational, transactional, cost reduction, or organizational restructuring items that management does not consider as part of our underlying core operating performance and that management believes impact the comparability of performance between periods. For the periods presented herein, such other items include non-cash impairment charges, gain/loss on facility lease termination and modification, operating lease expense adjustment, amortization of deferred gain, change in future service obligation, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and transaction and organizational restructuring costs. Transaction costs include those directly related to acquisition, disposition, financing, and leasing activity, and stockholder relations advisory matters, and are primarily comprised of legal, finance, consulting, professional fees, and other third party costs. Organizational restructuring costs include those related to our efforts to reduce general and administrative expense and our senior leadership changes, including severance.
We believe that presentation of Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure is useful to investors because (i) it is one of the metrics used by our management for budgeting and other planning purposes, to review our historic and prospective core operating performance, and to make day-to-day operating decisions; (ii) it provides an assessment of operational factors that management
46
can impact in the short-term, namely revenues and the controllable cost structure of the organization, by eliminating items related to our financing and capital structure and other items that management does not consider as part of our underlying core operating performance and that management believes impact the comparability of performance between periods; and (iii) we believe that this measure is used by research analysts and investors to evaluate our operating results and to value companies in our industry.
Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as a performance measure, including: (i) excluded interest and income tax are necessary to operate our business under our current financing and capital structure; (ii) excluded depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges may represent the wear and tear and/or reduction in value of our communities, goodwill, and other assets and may be indicative of future needs for capital expenditures; and (iii) we may incur income/expense similar to those for which adjustments are made, such as gain/loss on sale of assets, facility lease termination and modification, or debt modification and extinguishment, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and transaction and other costs, and such income/expense may significantly affect our operating results.
The table below reconciles our Adjusted EBITDA from our net income (loss).

Adjusted Free Cash Flow
Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure that we define as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities before: distributions from unconsolidated ventures from cumulative share of net earnings, changes in prepaid insurance premiums financed with notes payable, changes in operating lease liability for lease termination and modification, cash paid/received for gain/loss on facility lease termination and modification, and lessor capital expenditure reimbursements under operating leases; plus: property insurance proceeds and proceeds from refundable entrance fees, net of refunds; less: non-development capital expenditures and payment of financing lease obligations. Non-development capital expenditures are comprised of corporate and community-level capital expenditures, including those related to maintenance, renovations, upgrades and other major building infrastructure projects for our communities and is presented net of lessor reimbursements. Non-development capital expenditures do not include capital expenditures for community expansions and major community redevelopment and repositioning projects, and the development of new communities.
We believe that presentation of Adjusted Free Cash flow as a liquidity measure is useful to investors because (i) it is one of the metrics used by our management for budgeting and other planning purposes, to review our historic and prospective sources of
47
operating liquidity, and to review our ability to service our outstanding indebtedness, pay dividends to stockholders, engage in share repurchases, and make capital expenditures, including development capital expenditures; (ii) it is used as a metric in our performance-based compensation programs; and (iii) it provides an indicator to management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow has material limitations as a liquidity measure, including: (i) it does not represent cash available for dividends, share repurchases, or discretionary expenditures since certain non-discretionary expenditures, including mandatory debt principal payments, are not reflected in this measure; (ii) the cash portion of non-recurring charges related to gain/loss on facility lease termination and modification generally represent charges/gains that may significantly affect our liquidity; and (iii) the impact of timing of cash expenditures, including the timing of non-development capital expenditures, limits the usefulness of the measure for short-term comparisons.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to market risks from changes in interest rates charged on our credit facilities and other variable-rate indebtedness. The impact on earnings and the value of our long-term debt are subject to change as a result of movements in market rates and prices. As of
March 31, 2020
, we had
$2.3 billion
of long-term fixed rate debt, $1.4 billion of long-term variable rate debt, and $166.4 million drawn on our variable rate secured credit facility. For the
three months ended March 31, 2020
, our total fixed-rate debt and variable-rate debt outstanding, including our secured credit facility had a weighted average interest rate of
4.30%
.
In the normal course of business, we enter into certain interest rate cap agreements with major financial institutions to effectively manage our risk above certain interest rates on variable rate debt. As of
March 31, 2020
,
$1.3 billion
, or 34.0%, of our long-term debt is variable rate debt subject to interest rate cap agreements and $131.0 million, or 3.5%, of our long-term debt is variable rate debt not subject to any interest rate cap agreements. The $166.4 million drawn on our secured credit facility is variable rate debt not subject to any interest rate cap agreements. Our outstanding variable rate debt is indexed to LIBOR, and accordingly our annual interest expense related to variable rate debt is directly affected by movements in LIBOR. After consideration of hedging instruments currently in place, and including the impact of our variable rate secured credit facility, increases in LIBOR of
100
,
200
, and
500
basis points would have resulted in additional annual interest expense of
$16.0 million
,
$31.9 million
, and
$61.2 million
, respectively. Certain of the Company's variable debt instruments include springing provisions that obligate the Company to acquire additional interest rate caps in the event that LIBOR increases above certain levels, and the implementation of those provisions would result in additional mitigation of interest costs.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information contained in
Note 11
to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is incorporated herein by this reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following risk factors add and modify the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2019
filed with the SEC on February 19, 2020.
The COVID-19 pandemic, including the response efforts of federal, state, and local government authorities, businesses, individuals and us, is adversely impacting, and likely will continue to adversely impact our business, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity, and stock price, and such impacts may be material.
The United States broadly continues to experience the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”), which has significantly disrupted, and likely will continue to significantly disrupt for some period, our nation’s economy, the senior living industry, and our business. We expect that the pandemic, and the response efforts of federal, state, and local government authorities, businesses, individuals and us, likely will continue to adversely impact our business, results of operations, cash flow, and liquidity for the full-year 2020. We cannot predict with reasonable certainty the impacts that COVID-19 ultimately will have on our business, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity, and stock price, and such impacts may be material and persist for some time. Further, our preparation and response efforts may delay or negatively impact our strategic initiatives, including plans for future growth.
Due to the average age and prevalence of chronic medical conditions among our residents and patients, they generally are at disproportionately higher risk of hospitalization and adverse outcomes if they contract COVID-19. In addition, our community and healthcare associates may be at higher risk of contracting or spreading the disease due to the nature of the work environment when caring for residents and patients. Seeking to prevent the introduction of COVID-19 into our communities, and to help control further exposure to infections within communities, in March 2020 we began restricting visitors at all our communities to essential healthcare personnel and certain compassionate care situations, screening associates and permitted visitors, suspending group outings, modifying communal dining and programming to comply with social distancing guidelines and, in most cases, implementing in-room only dining and activities programming, requesting that residents refrain from leaving the community unless medically necessary, and requiring new residents and residents returning from a hospital or nursing home to isolate in their apartment for fourteen days. Upon confirmation of positive COVID-19 exposure at a community, we follow government guidance regarding minimizing further exposure, including associates’ adhering to personal protection protocols, restricting new resident admissions, and in some cases isolating residents. Due to the vulnerable nature of our residents, we expect many of these restrictions will continue at our communities for some time, even as federal, state, and local stay-at-home and social distancing orders and recommendations are relaxed. Notwithstanding these restrictions and our other response efforts, we have had, and likely will continue to have, viral introduction to, and transmission within, certain of our communities due to the easily transmissible nature of COVID-19. We have commenced a resident and associate testing program, which will be undertaken at substantially all our communities using a phased approach over the near term, due to the apparent ability of asymptomatic individuals to transmit the virus. Such testing may uncover presence of the virus where otherwise not suspected, which could result in additional temporary
49
restrictions on move-ins at affected communities, increased need for isolating asymptomatic residents, increased use of personal protection protocols by our associates, and increased labor costs.
The pandemic and related infection prevention and control protocols within senior living communities have significantly disrupted demand for senior living communities and the sales process, which typically includes in-person prospective resident visits at communities. We believe potential residents and their families are more cautious regarding moving into senior living communities while the pandemic continues, and such caution may persist for some time. Our efforts to adapt our sales and marketing efforts to meet demand may not be successful. We cannot predict with reasonable certainty whether or when demand for senior living communities will return to pre-COVID-19 levels or the extent to which the pandemic’s effect on demand may adversely affect the amount of resident fees we are able to collect from our residents.
The pandemic and our response efforts began to adversely impact our occupancy and resident fee revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily during the second half of March as new resident leads, visits (including virtual visits), and move-in activity declined significantly compared to typical levels. This trend continued through April 2020, resulting in our consolidated senior housing occupancy decreasing from 82.2% as of March 31, 2020 to 80.0% as of April 30, 2020. Our home health average daily census also began to decrease in March 2020 as referrals declined significantly due to suspension of elective medical procedures and discharges increasing as a result of stay-at-home orders and recommendations, resulting in home health census of 13,306 patients as of March 31, 2020. We expect further deterioration of our resident fee revenue resulting from fewer move-ins and resident attrition inherent in our business, which may increase due to the impacts of COVID-19.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we incurred $10.0 million of incremental facility operating expense to prepare for and respond to the pandemic, including costs for acquisition of additional PPE, medical equipment, and cleaning and disposable food service supplies, enhanced cleaning and environmental sanitation costs, and increased labor expense. Such costs have escalated following March 31, 2020, and we expect such costs to further include increased workers compensation expense, health plan expense, insurance premiums and retention, and consulting and professional services costs, as well as costs for COVID-19 testing of residents and associates where not otherwise covered by government payor or third-party insurance sources. We are not able to reasonably predict the total amount of costs we will incur related to the pandemic, and such costs are likely to be substantial. We have taken, and may take in future periods, significant impairment charges related to COVID-19 due to lower than expected operating performance at communities.
We continue to seek opportunities to enhance and preserve our liquidity, including through reducing expenses and elective capital expenditures, continuing to evaluate our financing structure and the state of debt markets, and seeking further government-sponsored financial relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2020, our remaining 2020 and 2021 maturities are $69.7 million and $333.1 million, respectively, and we have commenced efforts to refinance those and other maturities with non-recourse mortgage debt. There is no assurance that debt financing will continue to be available on terms consistent with our expectations or at all, or that our efforts will be successful in seeking further government-sponsored financial relief or regarding the terms and conditions of any such relief.
The pandemic has also caused substantial volatility in the market prices and trading volumes in the equity markets, including our stock. Our stock price and trading volume may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations as a result of the pandemic, and may decline in the future.
The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 on our business, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity, and stock price will depend on many factors, some of which cannot be foreseen, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of the disease; the impact of COVID-19 on the nation’s economy and debt and equity markets and the local economies in our markets; the development and availability of COVID-19 infection and antibody testing, therapeutic agents, and vaccines and the prioritization of such resources among businesses and demographic groups; government financial and regulatory relief efforts that may become available to business and individuals; perceptions regarding the safety of senior living communities during and after the pandemic; changes in demand for senior living communities and our ability to adapt our sales and marketing efforts to meet that demand; the impact of COVID-19 on our residents’ and their families’ ability to afford our resident fees, including due to changes in unemployment rates, consumer confidence, and equity markets caused by COVID-19; changes in the acuity levels of our new residents; the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on seniors generally and those residing in our communities; the duration and costs of our preparation and response efforts, including increased equipment, supplies, labor, litigation, and other expenses; the impact of COVID-19 on our ability to complete financings, refinancings, or other transactions (including dispositions) or to generate sufficient cash flow to cover required interest and lease payments and to satisfy financial and other covenants in our debt and lease documents; increased regulatory requirements and enforcement actions resulting from COVID-19, including those that may limit our collection efforts for delinquent accounts; and the frequency and magnitude of legal actions and liability claims that may arise due to COVID-19 or our response efforts.
50
Significant legal actions and liability claims against us could subject us to increased operating costs and substantial uninsured liabilities, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We have been and are currently involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of our business, which we believe are generally comparable to other companies in the senior living and healthcare industries, including, but not limited to, putative class action claims from time to time regarding staffing at our communities and compliance with consumer protection laws and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Certain claims and lawsuits allege large damage amounts and may require significant costs to defend and resolve. As a result, we maintain general liability, professional liability, and other insurance policies in amounts and with coverage and deductibles we believe are appropriate, based on the nature and risks of our business, historical experience, availability, and industry standards. Our current policies provide for deductibles for each claim and contain various exclusions from coverage. Accordingly, we are, in effect, self-insured for claims that are less than the deductible amounts and for claims or portions of claims that are not covered by such policies and/or exceed the policy limits. If we experience a greater number of losses than we anticipate, or if certain claims are not covered by insurance, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
The senior living and healthcare services businesses entail an inherent risk of liability, particularly given the demographics of our residents and patients, including age and health, and the services we provide. In recent years, we, as well as other participants in our industry, have been subject to an increasing number of claims and lawsuits alleging that our services have resulted in resident injury or other adverse effects. Many of these lawsuits involve large damage claims and significant legal costs. The frequency and magnitude of such alleged claims and legal costs may increase due to the COVID-19 pandemic or our response efforts. Many states continue to consider tort reform and how it will apply to the senior living industry. We may continue to be faced with the threat of large jury verdicts in jurisdictions that do not find favor with large senior living or healthcare providers. There can be no guarantee that we will not have any claims that exceed our policy limits in the future, which could subject us to substantial uninsured liabilities.
If a successful claim is made against us and it is not covered by our insurance or exceeds the policy limits, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In some states, state law may prohibit or limit insurance coverage for the risk of punitive damages arising from professional liability and general liability claims and/or litigation. As a result, we may be liable for punitive damage awards in these states that either are not covered or are in excess of our insurance policy limits. Also, our insurance policies' deductibles, or self-insured retention, are accrued based on an actuarial projection of future liabilities. If these projections are inaccurate and if there is an unexpectedly large number of successful claims that result in liabilities in excess of our accrued reserves, our operating results could be negatively affected. Claims against us, regardless of their merit or eventual outcome, also could have a material adverse effect on our ability to attract residents or expand our business and could require our management to devote time to matters unrelated to the day-to-day operation of our business. We also have to renew our policies every year and negotiate terms for coverage, exposing us to the volatility of the insurance markets, including the possibility of rate increases and changes in coverage and other terms. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain liability insurance in the future or, if available, that such coverage will be available on acceptable terms.

On November 1, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to purchase up to
$100.0 million
in the aggregate of its common stock. The share repurchase program is intended to be implemented through purchases made from time to time using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or block trades, or by any combination of such methods, in accordance with applicable insider trading and other securities laws and regulations. The size, scope and timing of any purchases will be based on business, market and other conditions and factors, including price, regulatory and contractual requirements, and capital availability. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion without prior notice. Shares of stock repurchased under the program will be held as treasury shares. As of
March 31, 2020
,
$44.0 million
remained available under the repurchase program.
Item 5. Other Information
There have been no material changes to the procedures by which stockholders may recommend nominees to the Company’s Board of Directors as described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on September 18, 2019 (the "2019 Proxy Statement"). While the Company has not changed such procedures, on April 21, 2020 the Company announced that the Board of Directors has determined that the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") will be held on Tuesday, June 30, 2020. Because the Annual Meeting will be held more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, the deadlines set forth in the 2019 Proxy Statement for stockholder proposals and director nominations for consideration at the Annual Meeting no longer apply. The new deadline was the close of business on May 1, 2020 (which the Company determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials prior to the Annual Meeting) for proposals and director nominations of stockholders intended to be included in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy for the Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or the proxy access provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, and proposals and director nominations of stockholders intended to be considered at the Annual Meeting other than by means of inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy card. In addition to complying with this deadline, any stockholder proposals and nominations must comply with all applicable SEC rules, including Rule 14a-8, and the requirements set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws and applicable law.
