Lengthening the Runway
“Our tenants and their outstanding care teams continue to make impressive gains against the global pandemic," said Greg Stapley, CareTrust's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Dealing with infection control issues around highly contagious diseases has never been easy, but they have been doing it for a long time and with the advent of widespread testing, more effective treatments and an overall better understanding of the virus, they are in a much better position with respect to COVID-19 than they were three short months ago,” he said.
Mr. Stapley noted that the costs associated with battling the virus are still elevated, and for most operators, occupancy and operating revenues have not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels. “Financially, most of our tenants’ operations still have a ways to go,” he said. He noted, however, that some of the Company’s seniors housing tenants have not experienced a census decline since February. He also noted that, while the occupancy decline for its skilled nursing tenants remains significant, increased revenues associated with elevated skilled mix continue to partially offset the occupancy impact. “The HHS provider relief funds have been critical for all but a couple of our tenants, and structural changes in reimbursement, including the waiver of the three-day qualifying stay requirement, the suspension of sequestration and the FMAP funding from several states, have all provided a meaningful cushion for most operators, allowing them to focus more on patients and staff and less on nickels and dimes,” he said.
Dave Sedgwick, CareTrust’s Chief Operating Officer, added that the question now is how far the provider relief funds granted to date, as well as any future anticipated funding, will carry the operators who need it as the pandemic plays out. “Our asset and portfolio management teams have put a tremendous amount of effort and analysis into understanding how each of our tenants is managing their way through the daily financial challenges presented by the COVID-19 response, and especially how far the government stimulus and other measures will take them if we see an extended recovery period,” said Mr. Sedgwick. “We are pleased to report that nearly all of our tenants appear to have enough runway to continue performing financially for the next few quarters while vaccines and other mitigants roll out, and we see a path to a soft landing for the ones who will need that runway,” he said.
Mr. Sedgwick reported that CareTrust has published the high-level results of its tenant-by-tenant analysis as an expanded lease coverage table in its quarterly supplemental report, released today alongside its 10-Q. The table shows coverage for the second quarter of 2020, which was the first full quarter of COVID-19’s impact on providers, and provides a snapshot of how tenants’ operations performed both with and without provider relief funding. “The coverage disclosures clearly show just how hard the early days of the pandemic were for most operators, and how important provider relief funds have been,” said Mr. Sedgwick. “And while we do not yet have full reporting for Q3, based on the data we’ve seen so far most providers will show improvement in their operating metrics for Q3, and we intend to continue being as transparent as possible in our disclosures around the ongoing financial health of our tenants going forward,” he added.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA represents net income before interest expense (including amortization of deferred financing costs), amortization of stock-based compensation, and depreciation and amortization. Normalized EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the Company does not consider indicative of core operating performance, such as real estate impairment charges, provision for loan losses, provision for doubtful accounts and lease restructuring, recovery of previously reversed rent, lease termination revenue, property operating expenses and gains or losses from dispositions of real estate. EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA do not represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in evaluating the Company’s liquidity or operating performance. EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA do not purport to be indicative of cash available to fund future cash requirements, including the Company’s ability to fund capital expenditures or make payments on its indebtedness. Further, the Company’s computation of EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA reported by other REITs.
Funds from Operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), and Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation except on land, such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT that uses historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. Thus, Nareit created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income, as defined by GAAP.
FFO is defined by Nareit as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from dispositions of real estate investments, real estate depreciation and amortization and real estate impairment charges, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company computes FFO in accordance with Nareit’s definition.
FAD is defined as FFO excluding noncash income and expenses, such as amortization of stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred financing fees and the effects of straight-line rent. The Company considers FAD to be a useful supplemental measure to evaluate the Company’s operating results excluding these income and expense items to help investors, analysts and other interested parties compare the operating performance of the Company between periods or as compared to other companies on a more consistent basis.
In addition, the Company reports Normalized FFO and Normalized FAD, which adjust FFO and FAD for certain revenue and expense items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its ongoing operating results, such as provision for loan losses, provision for doubtful accounts and lease restructuring, recovery of previously reversed rent, lease termination revenue and property operating expenses. By excluding these items, investors, analysts and our management can compare Normalized FFO and Normalized FAD between periods more consistently.
While FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD are relevant and widely-used measures of operating performance among REITs, they do not represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in evaluating the Company’s liquidity or operating performance. FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD do not purport to be indicative of cash available to fund future cash requirements.
Further, the Company’s computation of FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD may not be comparable to FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD reported by other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition or define FAD differently than the Company does.
The Company believes that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. The Company also believes that the use of EBITDA, Normalized EBITDA, FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among investors and makes comparisons of operating results among such companies more meaningful. The Company considers EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA useful in understanding the Company’s operating results independent of its capital structure, indebtedness and other charges that are not indicative of its ongoing results, thereby allowing for a more meaningful comparison of operating performance between periods and against other REITs. The Company considers FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD to be useful measures for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions, impairment charges and real estate depreciation and amortization, and, for FAD and Normalized FAD, by excluding noncash income and expenses such as amortization of stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred financing fees, and the effects of straight-line rent, FFO, Normalized FFO, FAD and Normalized FAD can help investors compare the Company’s operating performance between periods and to other REITs.
