PART I

Item 1. BUSINESS

General

LTC Properties, Inc., a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), was incorporated on May 12, 1992 in the State of Maryland and commenced operations on August 25, 1992. Historically we have invested primarily in seniors housing and health care properties primarily through ownership, sale-leasebacks, mortgage financing, joint ventures, construction financing and structured finance solutions including preferred equity, bridge and mezzanine lending.

Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, when we refer to “we,” “our,” “us,” “registrant,” “our company,” “the Company” or similar terms in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we mean LTC Properties, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Investment Policies and Strategies

Our investment policy is to invest primarily in seniors housing and health care properties. Over the past three years, we have underwritten investments in seniors housing communities and health care centers for a total of approximately $781.5 million. Additionally, during the past three years, we have disposed of properties for a total sales price of $252.2 million.

Prior to finalizing an investment, we conduct a comprehensive financial due diligence review and property site review to assess the property’s general physical condition.

Historically our investments have consisted of:

●

fee ownership of seniors housing and skilled nursing properties that are leased to operators;

●

mortgage loans secured by seniors housing and skilled nursing properties; or

●

participation in such investments indirectly through investments in mezzanine loans and real estate partnerships or other entities that themselves make direct investments in such loans or properties.

Additionally, during the second quarter of 2025, we began utilizing the structure authorized by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (commonly referred to as “RIDEA”) as permitted by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 and expect to continue using this investment structure in 2026.

In evaluating potential investments, we consider factors such as:

●

type of property;

●

location;

●

competition within the local market and evaluation of the impact resulting from any potential new development projects in construction or anticipated to be approved by local authorities;

●

construction quality, age, condition and design of the property;

●

current and anticipated cash flow of the property and its adequacy to meet operational needs and lease obligations or debt service obligations;

●

experience, reputation and solvency of the operating companies providing services;

●

payor mix of private, managed care, Medicare and Medicaid patients;

●

growth, tax and regulatory environments of the communities in which the properties are located;

●

occupancy and demand for similar properties in the area surrounding the property;

●

Medicaid reimbursement policies and plans of the state in which the property is located;

Table of Contents

●

third-party environmental reports, land surveys and market studies (if applicable);

●

energy, water and waste efficiency management practices; and

●

health, safety and wellness practices (air filtration systems, hazardous waste disposal, UV sanitation, etc.).

We seek to diversify our portfolio by operator and by geography, focusing on newer properties with strong cash flows and experienced operators. Our business development team boasts a seasoned roster with decades of collective experience and deep industry relationships. We strive to remain visible and relevant by supporting trade associations, attending and hosting industry conferences and events, speaking on panels and participating in media interviews. We believe these efforts, coupled with relationships will continue to provide investment opportunities in 2026 and beyond.

Our marketing and business development efforts focus on sourcing relationships with regionally based operators and intermediaries to execute on single property or small portfolio transactions that are not broadly marketed by third-party intermediaries. We take this approach because competition for larger, fully marketed portfolios generally results in increased pricing that produces yields below our investment hurdles. This strategy allows us to invest in properties priced at yields that are accretive to our stockholders.

Property Types

We invest in the following types of properties:

●

Independent living communities (“ILF”), also known as retirement communities or senior apartments, offer a sense of community and numerous levels of service, such as laundry, housekeeping, dining options/meal plans, exercise and wellness programs, transportation, social, cultural and recreational activities, on-site security and emergency response programs. Many independent living communities offer on-site conveniences like beauty/barber shops, fitness facilities, game rooms, libraries and activity centers.

●

Assisted living communities (“ALF”) serve people who require assistance with activities of daily living, but do not require the degree of supervision that skilled nursing facilities provide. Services are usually available 24 hours a day and include personal supervision and assistance with eating, bathing, grooming and administering medication. Many assisted living facilities provide a combination of housing, supportive services, personalized assistance and health care designed to respond to individual needs.

●

Memory care communities (“MC”) offer specialized options for people with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. These purpose-built, free-standing facilities offer an alternative for private-pay residents affected by memory loss in comparison to other accommodations that typically have been provided within a secured unit of an assisted living or skilled nursing facility. Memory care facilities offer dedicated care, with staff usually available 24 hours a day, and specialized programming for various conditions relating to memory loss in an environment that is typically smaller in scale and more residential in nature than traditional assisted living and skilled nursing facilities.

●

Skilled nursing centers (“SNF”) provide restorative, rehabilitative and nursing care for people not requiring the extensive treatment available at acute care hospitals. Many skilled nursing facilities provide ancillary services that include occupational, speech, physical, respiratory and medical therapies, as well as sub-acute care services which are paid either by the patient, the patient’s family, private health insurance, or through the federal Medicare or state Medicaid programs.

●

Other property types (“OTH”) comprise other types of properties such as land parcels, projects under development (“UDP”) and behavioral health care hospitals.

We include ILF, ALF, MC and combinations thereof in the seniors housing communities (“SH”) classification in some parts of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Sources of Revenues

Substantially all of our revenues and sources of cash flows from operations are derived from rental income from triple net operating leases, resident fees and services, interest earned on financing receivables, interest earned on outstanding mortgage loans receivable, interest earned on outstanding notes receivable and income from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. We depend upon the performance of our operators with respect to the daily management and marketing of long-term health care services offered at our properties.

Investment Portfolio

See Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Executive Overview—Investment Portfolio Overview for a table that summarizes our investment portfolio as of December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, our total investment portfolio included $2.0 billion in carrying value of net investments consisting of $693.4 million or 35.0% invested in net carrying value of owned real properties subject to non-cancelable triple-net leases (“NNN” or “Triple-Net Portfolio”), $508.4 million or 25.7% invested in net carrying value of owned seniors housing operating portfolio (“SHOP”), $359.5 million or 18.1% invested in net carrying value of properties we own accounted for as financing receivables, $381.7 million or 19.3% invested in net carrying value of mortgage loans secured by first mortgages, $25.6 million or 1.3% invested in net carrying value of notes receivable and $12.5 million or 0.6% in net carrying value of unconsolidated joint ventures.

Segments

As described above, we began utilizing the RIDEA structure in the second quarter of 2025 and established a SHOP segment. Accordingly, effective in the second quarter of 2025, we conduct and manage our business as two operating segments, for operating and decision-making purposes: i) real estate investments segment (“Real Estate Investments Segment”), which consists of our Triple-Net Portfolio, financing receivables, mortgage loans, notes receivable and unconsolidated joint ventures and ii) SHOP segment.

Our chief operating decision makers (collectively, the “CODM”) evaluate performance of our investments based on net operating income (“NOI”). The following table summarizes information for our investment portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2025 (dollar amounts in thousands):

NOI is a non-generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measure that is calculated as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before (i) general and administrative expenses, (ii) transaction costs, (iii) write-off of effective interest, (iv) provision for credit losses, (v) impairment loss, (vi) depreciation and amortization, (vii) interest expense, (viii) gain or loss on sale of real estate and (ix) income tax benefit or expense. See Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Non-GAAP Financial Measures for a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders to NOI.

Real Estate Investments Segment

Triple-Net Portfolio

Our triple-net leases require the lessee to pay all taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs, capital and non-capital expenditures and other costs necessary in the operations of the facilities. The majority of our leases contain provisions for specified annual increases over the rent of the prior year. At December 31, 2025, our Triple-Net Portfolio included 98 properties located in 22 states and leased to 18 different operators.

Financing Receivables

We have entered into joint ventures (“JV”) and contributed into the JVs for the acquisition of properties through sale and leaseback transactions. Concurrently, each of these JVs leased the acquired properties back to an affiliate of the seller and provided the seller-lessee with purchase options. We determined that each of these sale and leaseback transactions meet the accounting criteria to be presented as Financing receivables on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and recorded the rental revenue from these properties as Interest income from financing receivables on our Consolidated Statements of Income. See Item 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS— Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within our consolidated financial statements for additional information. At December 31, 2025, our financing receivables included 31 properties located in three states and leased to two operators.

Mortgage Loans Receivable

As part of our strategy of making investments in properties used in the provision of long-term health care services, we provide mortgage financing on such properties based on our established investment underwriting criteria. We have also provided construction loans that by their terms convert into purchase/lease transactions or permanent financing mortgage loans upon completion of construction. In addition to a lien on the mortgaged property, the loans are generally secured by certain non-real estate assets of the properties and contain certain other security provisions in the form of letters of credit and/or security deposits. At December 31, 2025, our mortgage loans were secured by 26 properties located in five states with six borrowers.

Notes Receivable

Our investment in notes receivable consists of a mezzanine loan and two working capital loans.

Table of Contents

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

We have a mortgage loan secured by a skilled nursing center in Texas. This mortgage loan was determined to be an acquisition, development and construction (“ADC”) loan and is accounted for as an unconsolidated joint venture. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the operator provided notice of its intent to pay off this mortgage loan.

SHOP Segment

As the owner of properties in our SHOP segment, we have certain oversight approval rights and the right to review operational and financial reporting information, but our independent third-party SHOP operators ultimately control the day-to-day operations of the properties, pursuant to the terms of our management agreements. At December 31, 2025, our SHOP segment was comprised of 25 seniors housing communities located in ten states that are managed on our behalf by seven independent operators pursuant to separate management agreements.

Our management agreements typically have fixed terms and are subject to renewal under certain conditions. These agreements may include provisions for termination under specific circumstances, with or without the payment of a fee. The SHOP operators generally receive annual management fees which are calculated based on various performance measures, which may include revenue, NOI and other objective financial metrics. Additionally, incentive fees may be awarded if specified performance targets are met.

Insurance

For properties in our Triple-Net Portfolio, we contractually require that all borrowers of funds from us and lessees of any of our properties maintain comprehensive property and general and professional liability insurance that covers us as well as the borrower and/or lessee. For investments in which we own fee simple title to the property and lease it to a third-party tenant, we are a non-possessory landlord and are generally not responsible for what takes place on such property. Nonetheless, claims including those pertaining to general and professional liability may be asserted against us which may result in costs and exposure for which insurance is not available.

For properties in our SHOP segment, our affiliates are licensed operators and are generally responsible for operational costs and expenses and could be held liable for other risks and liabilities. We maintain and/or contractually require that our third-party SHOP operators maintain comprehensive property and general and professional liability insurance. While our third-party SHOP operators typically indemnify us, pursuant to the terms of management agreements, for certain liabilities arising out of certain of their actions such as gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, certain liabilities may not be subject to indemnification, it may be difficult to enforce our rights or we may need to seek alternative solutions to ensure the liability is appropriately addressed.

Although we actively monitor and seek to ensure compliance by our third-party independent operators with our insurance requirements, we may be subject to loss for any number of reasons, such as noncompliance on the part of our third-party operators, losses that exceed covered limits or that are not covered, inability of operators to obtain insurance, bankruptcy of a carrier, or insufficient tail coverage.

Competition

In the health care industry, we compete for real property investments with health care providers, other health care related REITs, real estate partnerships, banks, private equity funds, venture capital funds and other investors. Many of our competitors are significantly larger and have greater financial resources and lower cost of capital than we have available to us. Our ability to compete successfully for real property investments will be determined by numerous factors, including our ability to identify suitable acquisition targets, our ability to negotiate acceptable terms for any such acquisition and the availability and our cost of capital.

Our SHOP operators, lessees and borrowers compete on a local, regional and, in some instances, national basis with other health care providers. The ability of our SHOP operators, lessees or borrowers to compete successfully for patients or residents at our properties depends upon several factors, including the levels of care and services provided by the SHOP operators, lessees or borrowers, the reputation of the providers, physician referral patterns, physical

Table of Contents

appearances of the properties, family preferences, financial condition of the operator and other competitive systems of health care delivery within the community, population and demographics.

REIT Tax Status

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we annually distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on the taxable income we distribute to our shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the generally applicable corporate tax rate. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to U.S. federal income tax provisions on certain specific transactions and property, as well as certain state and local taxes on our income, property or net worth and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income. We made no provision for U.S. federal income tax purposes prior to utilizing the RIDEA structure and establishing our taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) during the second quarter of 2025.

Under RIDEA, a REIT may lease a “qualified healthcare property” on an arm's-length basis to a TRS if the property is operated on behalf of such TRS by a person who qualifies as an “eligible independent operator”. Generally, the rent received from the TRS will meet the related party exception and will be treated as “rents from real property”. Rent revenue received from the TRS lessee and lease expense incurred by the TRS are eliminated in consolidation. A "qualified healthcare property" includes real property and any personal property that is, or is necessary or incidental to the use of, a hospital, nursing facility, assisted living facility, congregate care facility, qualified continuing care facility, or other licensed facility which extends medical or nursing or ancillary services to patients. Resident fees and services revenue and related operating expenses for these facilities are reported on our Consolidated Statements of Income and are subject to federal, state and local income taxes. As a result, beginning the second quarter of 2025, we now record income tax provision or benefit with respect to our TRS entity which is taxed under provisions similar to those applicable to regular corporations and not under the REIT provisions. Our provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $179,000. At December 31, 2025, our deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities with respect to our TRS entity were $729,000 and $695,000, respectively.

Health Care Regulation

Overview

The health care industry is heavily regulated by the government. We and our SHOP operators, borrowers and lessees who operate health care facilities are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations are subject to frequent and substantial changes resulting from legislation, adoption of rules and regulations, and administrative, executive and judicial interpretations of existing law. These changes may have a dramatic effect on the definition of permissible or impermissible activities, the relative costs associated with doing business and the amount of reimbursement by both government and other third-party payors. These changes may be applied retroactively. The ultimate timing or effect of these changes cannot be predicted. The failure of any operator of our SHOP communities, borrower of funds from us or lessee of any of our properties to comply with such laws, requirements and regulations could result in sanctions or remedies such as denials of payment for new Medicare and Medicaid admissions, civil monetary penalties, state oversight and loss of Medicare and Medicaid participation or licensure. Such action could affect our SHOP operator’s, borrower’s or lessee’s ability to operate its facility or facilities and could adversely affect such operator’s, borrower’s or lessee’s ability to meet their contractual obligations to us.

The properties we own and the manner in which they are operated are affected by changes in the reimbursement, licensing and certification policies of federal, state and local governments. Properties may also be affected by changes in accreditation standards or procedures of accrediting agencies. In addition, expansion (including the addition of new beds or services or acquisition of medical equipment) and occasionally the discontinuation of services of health care facilities are, in some states, subjected to state and regulatory approval through “certificate of need” laws and regulations.

Health Care Reform and Other Legislative Developments

Federal health care reform, including the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended (the “Affordable Care Act”), has expanded access to health insurance, reduced health care costs, and instituted various health policy reforms. Among other things, the Affordable Care Act: reduced Medicare skilled nursing facility reimbursement by a so-called “productivity adjustment” based on economy-wide productivity gains; required the development of a value-based purchasing program for Medicare skilled nursing facility services; authorized bundled payment programs, which can include post-acute services; and provided incentives to state Medicaid programs to promote community-based care as an alternative to institutional long-term care services. In addition, the Affordable Care Act impacts both us and our SHOP operators, lessees and borrowers as employers, including requirements related to the health insurance we offer to our respective employees. Many aspects of the Affordable Care Act have been implemented through regulations and sub-regulatory guidance. In December 2017, federal legislation repealed the Affordable Care Act’s penalty for individuals who fail to maintain health coverage meeting certain minimum standards. Other changes in the law include expiration of the enhanced Affordable Care Act premium subsidies for individuals enrolling in certain plans. Additional revisions of the Affordable Care Act could be made in future, although the details and timing of any such actions are unknown at this time. There can be no assurance that the implementation of the Affordable Care Act or any subsequent modifications or related legal challenges will not adversely impact the operations, cash flows or financial condition of our SHOP communities and our lessees and borrowers, which subsequently could materially adversely impact our revenue and operations.

President Trump, Congress and state legislatures can be expected to continue to review and assess alternative health care delivery systems and payment methodologies, including potential changes in Medicare and Medicaid payment policy for skilled nursing facility services and other types of post-acute care. Additional changes in laws, new interpretations of existing laws, or other changes in payment methodologies may have a dramatic effect on the definition of permissible or impermissible activities, the relative costs associated with doing business and the amount of reimbursement by the government and other third-party payors. There can be no assurances that enacted or future legislation will not have an adverse impact on the financial condition of our SHOP communities and our borrowers and lessees, which subsequently could materially adversely impact our company.

Reimbursement

The ability of our SHOP operators, borrowers and lessees to generate revenue and profit determines the underlying value of that property to us. Revenues of our SHOP communities and of our borrowers and lessees of skilled nursing centers are generally derived from payments for patient care. Sources of such payments for skilled nursing facilities include the federal Medicare program, state Medicaid programs, private insurance carriers, managed care organizations, preferred provider arrangements, and self-insured employers, as well as the patients themselves.

A significant portion of the revenue of our SHOP communities and of our skilled nursing center borrowers and lessees is derived from governmentally-funded reimbursement programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid. Because of significant health care costs paid by government programs, both federal and state governments have adopted and continue to consider various health care reform proposals to control health care costs. In many instances, revenues from Medicaid programs are insufficient to cover the actual costs incurred in providing care to Medicaid patients. In addition, all states have been making changes to their long-term care delivery systems that emphasize home and community-based long-term care services, in some cases coupled with cost-controls for institutional providers. Increasingly, state Medicaid programs are providing coverage through managed care programs under contracts with private health plans, which is intended to decrease state Medicaid costs. The federal government also has adopted various policies to promote community-based alternatives to institutional services and other initiatives that may impact Medicaid payments. For example, on January 29, 2026, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) issued a final rule implementing recent federal legislation that tightens the rules under which states can use provider taxes to fund their Medicaid programs. As states and the federal government continue to respond to budget pressures, future reduction in Medicaid payments for skilled nursing facility services could have an adverse effect on the financial condition of our SHOP operators, borrowers and lessees which could, in turn, adversely impact the timing or level of their payments to us.

With regard to the Medicare program, over the years there have been efforts to contain Medicare fee-for-service spending, promote Medicare managed care, and, more recently, tie reimbursement to quality and value of care.

Following prior legislation on Medicare sequestration, which results in automatic reduction in Medicare spending, the Medicare 2% sequestration reduction was suspended through March 31, 2022, and then reduced to 1% from April through June 2022. As of July 1, 2022, cuts of 2% were re-imposed, and will continue under recently-enacted appropriations legislation through February 28, 2033.

CMS annually updates Medicare SNF prospective payment system rates and other policies. On July 31, 2025, CMS issued a final rule to update Medicare payment policies and rates for SNFs under the SNF prospective payment system (“SNF PPS”) for fiscal year (“FY”) 2026. CMS announced that, it was updating SNF PPS rates by 3.2% based on the final SNF market basket of 3.3%, plus a 0.6% market basket forecast error adjustment, and a negative 0.7% productivity adjustment, which amounts to an increase in SNF PPS payments of $1.16 billion compared to payments in FY 2025. CMS stated that its impact figures do not incorporate the SNF Value-Based Purchasing (“VBP”) reductions for certain SNFs subject to the net reduction in payments under the SNF VBP, which are estimated to total $208.36 million in FY 2026. CMS stated that it was finalizing several changes to the PDPM ICD-10-CM code mappings to allow providers to provide more accurate, consistent, and appropriate primary diagnoses that meet the criteria for skilled intervention during a Part A SNF stay. CMS finalized 34 changes to the PDPM ICD-10-CM code mappings to maintain consistency with the latest ICD-10-CM coding guidance. CMS also finalized a series of operational and administrative proposals for the SNF VBP Program. In addition, CMS announced that for the SNF Quality Reporting Program (“QRP”), it was finalizing its proposal to remove four standardized patient assessment data elements from the Minimum Data Set (“MDS”), the SNF resident assessment form, beginning with residents admitted on or after October 1, 2025. CMS also finalized its proposal to amend the reconsideration request policy and process.

In April 2024, CMS issued the Minimum Staffing Standards for Long-Term Care Facilities and Medicaid Institutional Payment Transparency Reporting final rule. The rule set forth new comprehensive minimum staffing requirements, including a total nurse staffing standard of 3.48 hours per resident day (“HPRD”), consisting of at least 0.55 hours per resident day of direct registered nurse care and 2.45 hours per resident day of direct nurse aide care. CMS also finalized enhanced facility assessment requirements and a requirement to have a registered nurse onsite 24 hours a day, seven days a week (“24/7”), to provide skilled nursing care. The final rule also provided a staggered implementation timeframe of the minimum nurse staffing standards and 24/7 registered nurse requirement based on geographic location as well as possible exemptions for qualifying facilities for some parts of these requirements based on workforce unavailability and other factors. The final rule was challenged in federal courts in Texas and Iowa. An April 2025 decision from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas and a June 2025 decision from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa blocked the rule from taking effect. The Texas federal court vacated the rule in full, finding that CMS had exceeded its authority in promulgating it. Meanwhile, the Iowa federal court only vacated the 24/7 registered nurse requirement and the minimum staffing hours requirement, while leaving the rest of the rule in place. CMS appealed the Texas federal court’s decision striking down the entire rule to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, but that appeal was dismissed on September 19, 2025, pursuant to the government’s motion. The Iowa federal court’s decision was also appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, but that appeal was dismissed on October 3, 2025, pursuant to the government’s motion. Thus, both federal district court rulings stand undisturbed. Regardless, however, the 2025 budget reconciliation act (also known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”), signed by President Trump on July 4, 2025, imposed a 10-year moratorium on the implementation and enforcement of various provisions of the minimum staffing rule. Specifically, the law prohibited CMS from implementing or enforcing the requirement for a registered nurse to be onsite 24/7 and the other specific nurse staffing standards until September 30, 2034. On December 3, 2025, CMS issued an interim final rule with comment, which repealed certain provisions of the minimum staffing rule, effective February 2, 2026. CMS explained that the prohibitions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act rendered portions of the regulations unenforceable and unimplementable during the period before October 1, 2034, and that Congress had thus effectively suspended these provisions for that period. Therefore, CMS stated this prohibition warranted restoration of the previous version of the federal regulations.

On June 18, 2025, CMS issued a Quality, Safety and Oversight memorandum, QSO-25-NH, which outlined updates to how nursing home ratings are calculated and reported on the Nursing Home Care Compare website. According to the QSO memo, as of July 30, 2025, CMS would publish average Five Star ratings and other performance-based information for chains or affiliated entities on the Nursing Home Care Compare website. CMS also stated it would be removing COVID-19 vaccination information from the main profile page of each nursing home on the Care Compare website effective July 30, 2025. CMS also indicated it would be revising the methodology used to calculate Five Star Ratings.

There can be no assurance that these rules or future regulations modifying Medicare skilled nursing facility payment rates or other requirements for Medicare and/or Medicaid participation will not have an adverse effect on the financial condition of our SHOP communities and of our borrowers and lessees which could, in turn, adversely impact the timing or level of their payments to us.

CMS also has, in the past, implemented a variety of Medicare bundled payment programs that seek to promote greater care coordination and more efficient use of resources. Certain of these models, such as the Medicare Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement model (which ended in December 2024) and Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Advanced model (which ended in December 2025), have impacted post-acute care, including skilled nursing facility services. There can be no assurances that further Medicare payment models will not adversely affect revenues of our SHOP communities and of our skilled nursing center borrowers and lessees and thereby adversely affect their ability to make payments to us.

Moreover, health care facilities continue to experience pressures from private payors attempting to control costs; reimbursement from private payors has in some cases fallen relative to government payors. Governmental and public concern regarding health care costs may result in significant reductions in payment to health care facilities, and there can be no assurance that future payment rates for either governmental or private payors will be sufficient to cover cost increases in providing services to patients. Any changes in reimbursement policies which reduce reimbursement to levels that are insufficient to cover the cost of providing patient care could adversely affect revenues of our SHOP communities and of our skilled nursing center borrowers and lessees and to a much lesser extent our assisted living community borrowers and lessees and thereby adversely affect their ability to make payments to us. Failure of our SHOP communities or borrowers or lessees to make their payments would have a direct and material adverse impact on us.

Fraud and Abuse Enforcement

Various federal and state laws govern financial and other arrangements between health care providers that participate in, receive payments from, or make or receive referrals in connection with government funded health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. These laws, known as the fraud and abuse laws, include the federal anti-kickback statute, which prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully soliciting, receiving, offering or paying any remuneration directly or indirectly in return for, or to induce, the referral, or arrange for the referral, of an individual to a person for the furnishing of an item or service for which payment may be made under federal health care programs. In addition, the federal physician self-referral law, commonly known as the Stark Law, prohibits physicians and certain other types of practitioners from making referrals for certain designated health services paid in whole or in part by Medicare and Medicaid to entities with which the practitioner or a member of the practitioner’s immediate family has a financial relationship, unless the financial relationship fits within an applicable exception to the Stark Law. The Stark Law also prohibits the entity receiving the referral from seeking payment under the Medicare program for services rendered pursuant to a prohibited referral. Sanctions for violating the Stark Law include civil monetary penalties of up to $30,868 per prohibited service provided, assessments equal to three times the dollar value of each such service provided and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Many states have enacted similar fraud and abuse laws which are not necessarily limited to items and services for which payment is made by federal health care programs. Violations of these laws may result in fines, imprisonment, denial of payment for services, and exclusion from federal and/or other state-funded programs. Other federal and state laws authorize the imposition of penalties, including criminal and civil fines and exclusion from participation in federal health care programs for submitting false claims, improper billing and other offenses. Federal and state government agencies have continued rigorous enforcement of criminal and civil fraud and abuse laws in the health care arena. Our SHOP operators, borrowers and lessees are subject to many of these laws, and some of them could in the future become the subject of a governmental enforcement action.

Environmental Regulation

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner of real property or a secured lender (such as us) may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances at, under or disposed of in connection with such property, as well as other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including government fines and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property). Such laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner or secured lender knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances and may be imposed on the owner or secured lender in connection with the

Table of Contents

activities of an operator of the property. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or personal or property damages and the owner’s or secured lender’s liability therefore could exceed the value of the property, and/or the assets of the owner or secured lender. In addition, the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral which, in turn, would reduce our revenues.

As the owner of properties in our SHOP segment, we may be liable to such costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from our properties. For properties in our Triple-Net Portfolio, although the mortgage loans that we provide and leases covering our properties require the borrower and the lessee to indemnify us for certain environmental liabilities, the scope of such obligations may be limited and we cannot assure that any such borrower or lessee would be able to fulfill its indemnification obligations.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

This section discusses risk factors that could affect our business, operations, and financial condition. If any of these risks, as well as other risks and uncertainties that we have not yet identified or that we currently believe are not material, actually occur, we could be materially adversely affected and the value of our securities could decline. In addition, these risk factors contain “forward-looking statements” as discussed above under the “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements.” The following information should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and the consolidated financial statements and related notes in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

We are responsible for, and our financial performance will be impacted by, operational and legal risks and liabilities under our new SHOP segment.

During the second quarter of 2025, we began utilizing a structure, as authorized by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007, commonly referred to as “RIDEA”. Under RIDEA, a REIT may lease a qualified healthcare property on an arm's-length basis to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) if the property is operated on behalf of such TRS by a person/entity who qualifies as an “eligible independent operator.” Under this structure, the eligible third-party SHOP operator receives a management fee from our TRS for operating the property as an independent third party.

As the owner of a property under a RIDEA structure, we are responsible for, and our financial performance is impacted by, operational and legal risks and liabilities of the property. The income we generate from RIDEA structures in our SHOP segment is subject to a number of operational risks including fluctuations in occupancy levels and resident fee levels, increases in the cost of food, materials, energy, labor or other services, national and regional economic conditions, the imposition of new or increased taxes and regulation, capital expenditure requirements, professional and general liability claims, and the availability and cost of professional and general liability insurance.

We are dependent on the ability of our third- party SHOP operators to successfully manage and operate our SHOP communities.

Although we have some general oversight approval rights and the right to review operational and financial reporting information with respect to a typical RIDEA structure, our independent third-party operators ultimately control the day-to-day business of the property. We rely on the personnel, expertise, resources, good faith, and judgment of our independent third-party operators to set appropriate resident fees, provide accurate property-level financial results for our properties in a timely manner and to otherwise operate properties in our SHOP segment in compliance with the terms of our management agreements and all applicable laws and regulations. While our third-party SHOP operators typically indemnify us, pursuant to the terms of management agreements, for liabilities arising out of certain of their actions such as gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, it may be difficult to enforce our rights or we may need to seek alternative solutions to ensure the liability is appropriately addressed.

We are dependent on our operators for revenue and cash flow.

Substantially all of our revenue and sources of cash flows are derived from management agreements, operating lease rentals, resident fees and services and interest earned on outstanding financing receivables, loans receivable and income from our preferred equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. Our investments in owned real properties, mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, financing receivables and preferred equity investments represent our primary source of liquidity to fund distributions. We do not implement operational decisions with respect to the daily management and marketing of care services offered at our properties. We therefore are dependent upon the performance of our operators for the income and rates we earn on leases and loans. A decrease in occupancy and/or increase in operating costs could have an adverse effect on our SHOP operators, lessees and borrowers. For example, due to the Covid-19 pandemic and related public health measures, our lessees and borrowers experienced a decrease in occupancy and an increase in operating costs. There can be no assurance that our SHOP operators, lessees and borrowers will have sufficient assets, income, and access to financing to enable them to satisfy, in full, their respective obligations to us. Our

Table of Contents

financial condition and ability to pay dividends could be adversely affected by financial or operational difficulties experienced by any of our SHOP operators, lessees or borrowers, or in the event any such operator does not renew and/or extend its relationship with us at similar or better financial terms.

We and our operators are subject to risks associated with public health crises, including pandemics.

The existence and effect of public health crises and related government measures to prevent the spread of infectious diseases could adversely impact our company and the financial results of our operators. The operations and occupancy levels at the seniors housing and health care facilities of SHOP communities and of our lessees and borrowers could be adversely affected by a pandemic including future outbreaks of Covid and its variants, especially if there are infections on a large scale at our properties. The impact of another pandemic could include early resident move-outs, our operators delaying accepting new residents due to quarantines, potential occupants postponing moves to our operators’ facilities, and/or hospitals cancelling or significantly reducing elective surgeries thereby reducing the number of people in need of skilled nursing care. Operating costs, such as cost increases in staffing and pay, purchases of additional personal protective equipment (“PPE”), and implementation of additional safety protocols, of our SHOP operators, lessees and borrowers could rise due to a public health crisis such as another pandemic.

Additionally, health orders, rent moratoriums, and other initiatives by federal, state, and local authorities could affect our operators and our ability to collect rent and/or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent. The extent to which another pandemic could impact our operations, and those of our operators, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration, spread and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Further, future outbreaks of Covid and its variants, or another pandemic, could generate an adverse trend away from seniors housing and health care facilities to at-home and alternative care services, the occupancy rates of our operators and the value of our real estate investments could be negatively impacted.

The health care industry is heavily regulated by the government and changes in federal, state, or local law could impose negative costs and restrictions on us and our operators.

We and our SHOP operators, borrowers and lessees who operate health care facilities are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations are subject to frequent and substantial changes resulting from proposed and enacted legislation, adoption of rules and regulations, the scope, administration, and enforcement of regulatory frameworks, and judicial interpretations of preexisting and newly adopted law. These changes may have a dramatic effect on the definition of permissible or impermissible activities, the relative costs associated with doing business and the amount of reimbursement by both government and other third-party payors. These changes may be applied retroactively. The ultimate timing or effect of these changes cannot be predicted. The failure of any borrower of funds from us or SHOP operator or lessee of any of our properties to comply with such laws, requirements and regulations could affect its ability to operate its facility or facilities and could adversely affect such SHOP operator’s, lessee’s or borrower’s contractual obligations to us. Further, the ability of our operators to comply with applicable regulations could be adversely impacted by shifts in the labor market and increases in inflation.

Changes in federal, state, or local laws limiting REIT investments in the health care sector may adversely impact our ability to participate in the ownership of and investment in health care real estate.

Legislation potentially impacting REIT ownership and investment in the health care sector has recently been introduced or is under discussion at the federal and state level. These legislative proposals range from additional oversight to prohibitions on investors acquiring or increasing ownership, or operational or financial control, in nursing homes. Such legislation or similar laws or regulations, if enacted, may limit our opportunities to participate in the ownership of, or investment in, certain health care real estate property types. Changes in federal, state, or local laws or regulations limiting REIT investment in the health care sector, reducing health care related benefits for REITs, or requiring additional approvals for health care entities to do business with REITs, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operations.

Table of Contents

Federal and state health care cost containment measures including reductions in reimbursement from third-party payors such as Medicare and Medicaid could adversely affect us and the ability of our operators to make payments to us.

The ability of our operators to generate revenue and profit determines the underlying value of that property to us. Revenues of our skilled nursing center lessees are generally derived from payments for patient care. Sources of such payments include the federal Medicare program, state Medicaid programs, private insurance carriers, health care service plans, health maintenance organizations, preferred provider arrangements, self-insured employers, as well as the patients themselves.

The health care industry continues to face increased government and private payor pressure on health care providers to control costs. Federal legislative and regulatory policies have been adopted and may continue to be proposed that would reduce Medicare and/or Medicaid payments to nursing facilities. Moreover, state budget pressures continue to result in adoption of Medicaid provider payment reductions in some states. Increasingly, state Medicaid programs are providing coverage through managed care programs under contracts with private health plans, which is intended to decrease state Medicaid costs. In light of continuing federal and state Medicaid program reforms, budget cuts, and regulatory initiatives, no assurance can be given that the implementation of such regulations and reforms will not have an adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of our SHOP operators, lessees and/or borrowers which, in turn, could affect their ability to meet their contractual obligations to us.

Required regulatory approvals could delay operation of health care facilities.

Operators of skilled nursing and other health care facilities must be licensed under applicable state law and, depending upon the type of facility, certified or approved under the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs. A new operator in certain states also must receive change-of-ownership approvals under certificate of need laws. Delays in an operator receiving regulatory approvals from the applicable federal, state, or local government agencies, or the inability of an operator to receive such approvals, could prolong the period during which we are unable to receive lease or loan payments. We also could incur expenses in connection with any licensing, certification, or change-of-ownership proceedings.

Failure to comply with applicable law or regulations could prohibit operation of health care facilities.

The failure of our operators to comply with applicable federal, state, or local law or regulations could result in penalties which could include loss or restriction of license, loss of accreditation, denial of reimbursement, imposition of fines, suspension or decertification from federal and state health care programs, or closure of the facility. In our SHOP segment in particular, we may be held responsible for the failure by one of our third-party SHOP operators to comply with applicable law or regulation, which could subject us to similar penalties. The loss or imposition of restrictions on any required license, registration, certificate of need, provider agreement or certification would prevent a facility from operating in the manner intended by the operator or us. Additionally, failure by any of our operators to comply with applicable laws and regulations could result in adverse publicity and reputational harm, and therefore could harm our business.

Insurance coverage maintained by our operators could be inadequate to protect against contingencies.

Operators of health care facilities may become subject to claims that their services have resulted in injury or other adverse effects. For properties in our SHOP segment, we maintain and/or contractually require that our third-party SHOP operators maintain comprehensive liability insurance. For properties in our Triple-Net Portfolio, as a non-possessory landlord, we contend we are not generally responsible for what takes place at properties we do not possess. Although we require our operators to maintain comprehensive liability insurance that covers us as well as the operator, we could be subject to losses due to noncompliance or insufficient coverage. In addition, certain risks could be uninsurable or unavailable. There can be no assurance that we or our operators will have adequate insurance or funds to cover all contingencies. If an uninsured loss occurs or a loss exceeds policy limits, we could lose both invested capital and anticipated revenue from a property.

Table of Contents

We rely on a few major operators.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, approximately 25.3% of our revenues from leases and interest income from real estate investments were generated from three operators. The failure, inability, or unwillingness of any of these operators to meet their obligations to us could materially reduce our cash flow as well as our results of operations.

The extent and pace of inflation could adversely impact our operators’ net income and our results of operations.

Inflation, both real or anticipated as well as any related governmental policies, could adversely affect the economy and the costs of labor, goods and services to our operators. The impact of inflation may increase the costs to manage and make capital improvements at our SHOP communities. Because lessees and borrowers are typically required to pay all property operating expenses, increases in property-level expenses at our leased and mortgaged properties generally do not directly affect us. However, increased operating costs could have an adverse impact on our lessees and borrowers if increases in their operating expenses exceed increases in their revenue, which may adversely affect their ability to pay rent and interest owed to us. An increase in our operators’ expenses and a failure of their revenues to increase at least with inflation could adversely impact their net operating income and our results of operations. In addition, our long-term leases and loans typically contain provisions, such as rent escalators, designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. If the contractual or actual increases in income we receive from our lessees and borrowers do not keep pace with a rise in inflation, our results of operations could be adversely impacted.

We may be unable to find suitable replacement operators for our SHOP communities.

If a third-party operator of a property in our SHOP segment does not renew or terminates its management agreement with us, we would attempt to obtain a replacement operator. However, we may fail to identify a suitable replacement or enter into an agreement with a new operator on a timely basis or on terms as favorable to us as our current agreement, if at all. During the transition period to a new SHOP operator, the attention of an existing operator may be diverted from the performance of our properties, Additionally, our ability to transition our properties to a suitable replacement operator could be significantly delayed or limited by state licensing, certificates of need, change-of-ownership rules, or other legal and regulatory requirements or restrictions. The inability to obtain a suitable replacement operator on a timely or successful basis could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We may be unable to renew leases, or the terms of renewals or new leases could be less favorable than current leases.

Approximately 44.2% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, was derived from operating lease rentals. There can be no assurance that a lessee will operate its lease through expiration or that a lessee will exercise an option to renew its lease upon expiration. In such scenarios, there can be no assurance that we would be able to find a suitable replacement operator, re-lease the property on substantially equivalent or better terms than the prior lease, if at all. Additionally, to retain current or attract new operators, we could be asked to provide rent concessions or undertake capital expenditures to improve properties.

Table of Contents

Operator financial or legal difficulties could delay or prevent collection of rent.

If a lessee experiences financial or legal difficulties, it could fail to pay us rent when due, assert counterclaims, or seek bankruptcy protection. In the case of a master lease, this risk is magnified, as a default could reduce or eliminate rental revenue from several properties. Over the past three years, some of our operators have had or continue to have financial or legal difficulties resulting in non-payment of rent. See Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Executive Overview—Portfolio Overview—Update on Certain Operators for further discussion. If an operator is unable to comply with the terms of its leases, we could be asked to defer rent or be forced to modify the leases in ways that are unfavorable to us. Alternatively, the failure of an operator to perform its obligations under a lease or other agreements with us could force us to declare a default and terminate the lease. There can be no assurance that we would be able to find a suitable replacement operator, re-lease the property on substantially equivalent or better terms than the prior lease, if at all. If a lessee seeks bankruptcy protection, it could delay our efforts to collect past due amounts owed to us under the applicable lease and ultimately preclude collection of all or a portion of those amounts.

Collateral securing mortgage loans could be insufficient.

If a borrower defaults under a mortgage loan, we could be obligated to foreclose on or otherwise protect our investment by acquiring title to the property. In such a scenario, the borrower could contest enforcement of foreclosure, assert counterclaims, or seek bankruptcy protection. This could limit or delay our ability to recover unpaid principal and/or interest and exercise other rights and remedies. Declines in the value of the property could prevent us from realizing an amount equal to our investment. Additionally, it could be difficult to expeditiously find a suitable replacement operator, if at all, or otherwise successfully operate or occupy the property, which could adversely affect our ability to recover our investment.

Our real estate investments could become impaired.

We periodically, but not less than quarterly, evaluate our real estate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on factors such as market conditions, operator performance, and legal structure. If we determine that an impairment has occurred, we would be required to make an adjustment to the net carrying value of the asset which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the write-off occurs.

Our real estate investments are relatively illiquid and could be difficult to sell for book value.

Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and therefore tend to limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, availability of financing, interest rates, and other factors, including supply and demand, that are beyond our control. All of our real estate investments are special purpose properties that cannot be readily converted to other health care related services, general residential, retail, or office use. Transfers of operations of health care facilities are subject to regulatory approvals not required for transfers of other types of commercial operations and other types of real estate. If the operation of any of our properties becomes unprofitable or a SHOP operator, lessee or borrower becomes unable to meet its obligations on the lease, mortgage loan, or management agreement, the liquidation value of the property could be substantially less than the net book value or the amount owing on any related mortgage loan than would be the case if the property were readily adaptable to other uses.

Development and construction risks could affect the profitability and completion of properties.

Our business includes development and construction of seniors housing and health care properties. Construction and development projects involve risks such as the following:

●

development of a project could be abandoned after expending significant resources resulting in the loss of deposits or failure to recover expenses already incurred;

Table of Contents

●

development and construction costs of a project could exceed original estimates due to increased interest rates and higher materials, transportation, labor, leasing, or other costs, which could make completion less profitable;

●

financing for a project could be unavailable on favorable terms or at all;

●

project delays could result in increases in construction costs and debt service expenses as a result of a variety of factors that are beyond our control, including natural disasters, labor conditions, material shortages, and regulatory hurdles; and

●

occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed property could fail to meet expected levels and could be insufficient to make the property profitable.

We may be unable to invest cash proceeds due to competition for health care properties.

From time to time, we will have cash available from the sale of equity and debt capital, sale of properties, and funds from operations. With these cash proceeds, we may seek to invest in health care properties as part of our business and growth strategy. We compete for health care property investments with developers, public and private REITs, and other investors, some of whom may have greater financial resources than us. The competition for health care properties could affect our ability to make timely investments on acceptable terms, which could adversely affect our ability to grow or acquire properties profitably or with attractive return.

Our operators face competition providing seniors housing and health care services.

The business of providing seniors housing and health care is highly competitive. Our operators compete with other companies providing similar care services or alternatives such as home health agencies, hospices, life care at home, community-based service programs, retirement communities, and convalescent centers. Additionally, our operators are sensitive to changes in the labor market and wages and benefits offered to their employees, which can impact their ability to remain competitive. There can be no assurance that our operators will not encounter increased competition in the future which could limit their ability to attract residents or expand their businesses and therefore adversely affect their ability to manage our SHOP communities or to make their lease or loan payments to us.

Risks Related to Our Status as a REIT

Our failure to qualify as a REIT would have serious adverse consequences to our stockholders.

We intend to operate so as to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”). We believe that we have been organized and have operated in a manner which would allow us to qualify as a REIT under the Code beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 1992. However, it is possible that we have been organized or have operated in a manner which would not allow us to qualify as a REIT, or that our future operations could cause us to fail to qualify. Qualification as a REIT requires us to satisfy numerous requirements (some on an annual and quarterly basis) established under highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations, and involves the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control. For example, in order to qualify as a REIT, at least 95% of our gross income in any year must be derived from qualifying sources, and we must pay dividends to stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding capital gains). Legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly change the tax laws with respect to qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification.

If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal and state income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax for taxable years ending prior to January 1, 2018) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We note that REITs are specifically excluded from the application of the corporate alternative minimum tax that was enacted as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Unless we are entitled to relief under statutory provisions, we would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we lost qualification. If we lose our REIT status, our net earnings available for investment or distribution to

Table of Contents

stockholders would be significantly reduced for each of the years involved. In addition, we would no longer be required to make distributions to stockholders.

Legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations and/or court decisions could occur at any time and significantly change the tax laws with respect to our qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. We cannot predict if or when any new or amended law, regulation, administrative interpretation, or case will be adopted, promulgated, decided or become effective, and any such change may apply retroactively. The last significant legislation affecting REITs was The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, effective for tax years beginning in 2018. We and our security holders may be adversely affected by any new or amended law, regulation, administrative interpretation, or case law. Stockholders and prospective investors are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and any other regulatory, administrative or judicial developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our securities.

Risks Related to Our Capital Structure

Limited access to capital could affect our growth.

As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income. Our growth therefore is generally through the investment of new capital in real estate assets. As of December 31, 2025, we had $14.4 million of cash on hand and $347.1 million available under our unsecured revolving line of credit. We also have the ability to access the capital markets through the issuance of $288.5 million of common stock under our equity distribution agreements and an indeterminate amount through the issuance of debt and/or equity securities under an automatic shelf registration statement. We currently believe our liquidity and various sources of available capital are sufficient to fund operations and development commitments, meet debt service obligations, make dividend distributions, and finance potential investments. In the future, however, our ability to access the equity and/or debt markets could be limited. During such times, most of our available capital would be required to meet existing commitments. Limited access to the equity and/or debt markets could negatively impact our growth if we are unable to obtain additional capital, dispose of assets on favorable terms, or acquire health care properties on a competitive basis.

We could incur more debt.

We operate with a policy of incurring debt when it is advisable in the opinion of our Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2025, our indebtedness represented approximately 34.0% of our gross assets. We could incur additional debt by borrowing under our unsecured revolving line of credit, mortgaging properties we own, and/or issuing debt securities in public offerings or private transactions. The degree of indebtedness could affect our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other corporate purposes and make us more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy generally.

Covenants related to our indebtedness could limit our operations.

The terms of our current indebtedness as well as debt instruments that we enter into in the future are subject to customary financial and operational covenants. These include requiring us to maintain debt service coverage, leverage ratios, and minimum net worth requirements. We may be unable to maintain compliance with these covenants and, if we fail to do so, we may be unable to obtain waivers and/or amend the covenants. If some or all of our debt is accelerated and becomes immediately due and payable, we may be unable to repay or refinance the debt. Our continued ability to incur debt and operate our business is subject to compliance with these covenants, which could limit operational flexibility.

An increase in market interest rates could increase our debt cost and impact our stock price.

We have entered into debt obligations, such as our unsecured revolving line of credit and term loans, with interest and related payments that vary with the movement of certain indices. In the future, we could incur additional indebtedness in connection with the entry into new credit facilities or the financing of acquisitions or development activity. If market interest rates increase, so could our interest costs. This could make the financing of any acquisition more costly. Rising interest rates could limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it matures or cause us to pay

Table of Contents

higher interest rates upon refinancing. Further, the dividend yield on our common stock will influence its price. An increase in market interest rates could lead prospective purchasers of our common stock to expect a higher dividend yield, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Ownership through partnerships and joint ventures could limit property performance.

We have in the past and may in the future develop and/or acquire properties in partnerships and similar joint ventures, including those in which we own a preferred interest, when we believe circumstances warrant this type of investment. Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of available funds that we can invest in partnerships or other joint venture structures. As of December 31, 2025, we had five active joint ventures with a total LTC equity investment of $330.6 million. Investments in partnerships and joint ventures, including limited liability companies, involve risks such as the following:

●

our partners could become bankrupt, in which event we and any other remaining partners would generally remain liable for the liabilities of the venture;

●

our partners could have economic or other business interests or goals which are inconsistent with our business objectives;

●

our partners or co-members could be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions, requests or objectives, including our policy with respect to maintaining our qualification as a REIT; and

●

governing agreements often contain restrictions on the transfer of an interest or “buy-sell” or other provisions which could result in a purchase or sale of the interest at a disadvantageous time or on disadvantageous terms.

We generally seek to maintain sufficient control of a partnership or joint venture to permit us to achieve our business objectives. However, in the event that it fails to meet expectations or becomes insolvent, we could lose our investment in the partnership or joint venture.

Risks Related to Our Stock

A failure to maintain or increase our dividend could reduce the market price of our common stock.

The decision to declare and pay dividends on our common stock, as well as the timing, amount, and composition of any future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors. The ability to maintain or raise the dividend on our common stock is dependent, to a large part, on growth of funds available for distribution. This growth in turn depends upon increased revenues from additional investments and loans, rental increases, and mortgage rate increases. Any change in our dividend policy could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

Your ownership percentage in our common stock could be diluted.

From time to time, we could issue additional shares of our common stock in connection with sales under our equity distribution agreements or other capital market transactions. These issuances could cause your percentage ownership in our common stock to be diluted in the future and could have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share and reduce the value of our common stock. Additionally, our charter authorizes us to issue, without the approval of our stockholders, one or more classes or series of preferred stock having such designations, powers, privileges, preferences, including preferences over our common stock respecting dividends and distributions, terms of redemption and relative participation, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series of preferred stock and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as our Board of Directors determines. The terms of one or more classes or series of preferred stock could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock.

Provisions in our charter limit ownership of shares of our stock.

No more than 50% in value of the outstanding shares of a REIT can be beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of each taxable year. To ensure qualification under

Table of Contents

this test, our charter provides that, subject to exceptions, no person is permitted to beneficially own more than 9.8% of outstanding shares of any class or series of our stock, including our common stock. Our Board of Directors could decide to exempt a person from the 9.8% ownership limit unless doing so would result in the termination of our status as a REIT. Shares of our stock in excess of the 9.8% ownership limitation that lack an applicable exemption may lose rights to dividends and voting, and may be subject to redemption. Additionally, acquisition of any shares of our stock that would result in our disqualification as a REIT may be limited or void. The 9.8% ownership limitation also could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of us, including a merger or acquisition or tender offer that might provide a premium price for holders of our stock.

Maryland law could increase the difficulty of acquiring us.

Provisions of Maryland law, our charter, and our bylaws could have the effect of discouraging, delaying, or preventing transactions that involve an actual or threatened change in control. These provisions include the following:

●

The Maryland Business Combination Act provides that unless exempted, a Maryland corporation may not engage in business combinations, including mergers, dispositions of 10% or more of its assets, certain issuances of shares of stock, and other specified transactions, with an “interested stockholder” or an affiliate of an interested stockholder for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, and thereafter unless specified criteria are met. An interested stockholder is generally a person owning or controlling, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding stock of a Maryland corporation. Our Board of Directors has not exempted us from this statute.

●

The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act provides that “control shares” of a corporation acquired in a control share acquisition shall have no voting rights except to the extent approved by the stockholders by a vote of two-thirds of the votes eligible to be cast on the matter under the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. “Control Shares” means shares of stock that, if aggregated with all other shares of stock previously acquired by the acquiror, would entitle the acquiror to exercise voting power in electing directors within certain ranges. If voting rights of control shares are not approved at a stockholders’ meeting, then subject to certain conditions and limitations, the issuer may redeem any or all of the control shares for fair value. Our bylaws contain a provision by which we have opted-out of the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. However, we could, by resolutions adopted by our Board of Directors and without stockholder approval, elect to become subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act.

These and other provisions of Maryland law could increase the difficulty of acquiring us, even if the acquisition would be in the best interests of our stockholders.

General Risk Factors

We are dependent on key personnel.

Our six executive officers and other senior officers have a significant role in our success. Our ability to retain our management group or to attract suitable replacements should any member of the management group leave is dependent on the competitive nature of the employment market. The loss of services from key members of the management group or a limitation in their availability could adversely affect our business and could be negatively perceived in the capital markets.

Our investments are concentrated in a single sector.

Our investments are concentrated in health care properties. A downturn in the health care property sector could have a greater adverse effect on our business and financial condition than if we had investments in multiple industries and sectors. A downturn in the health care property sector also could adversely impact the ability of our operators to meet their obligations to us and maintain residents and occupancy rates. Additionally, a downturn in the health care property sector could adversely affect the value of our properties and our ability to sell properties at prices or on terms acceptable to us.

Table of Contents

Disruptions in the capital markets could affect the price of our common stock and our ability to obtain financing.

The United States capital markets could experience significant price volatility, dislocations, and liquidity disruptions, due to global trade disputes and tariffs, international geopolitical events, and infectious disease outbreaks. This could cause market prices of many securities, including our common stock, to fluctuate substantially. Uncertainty in the stock and credit markets could negatively impact our ability to access financing at reasonable terms, which could negatively impact our ability to acquire properties and otherwise pursue our investment strategy. A prolonged downturn in the stock or credit markets could cause other unknown negative impacts on us and the economy.

Catastrophic weather and natural disasters could affect our properties.

Some of our properties are located in areas susceptible to catastrophic weather and natural disasters, including fires, snow or ice storms, windstorms or hurricanes, earthquakes, flooding, or other severe conditions. Adverse weather and natural events could cause damage to our properties. If our operators suffer losses from catastrophic weather or natural disasters, we could lose our invested capital and anticipated future revenue from the property.

We could incur costs associated with hazardous substances and contamination.

Under various federal, state, and local environmental laws, owners or operators of real estate could be required to investigate and remediate the effects of contamination of currently or formerly owned real estate by hazardous substances, often regardless of knowledge of or responsibility for the contamination. Although our borrowers and lessees are primarily responsible for the condition of the property they occupy, we also could be held liable to a governmental authority or to third parties for property damage, personal injuries, and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred in connection with the contamination or we could be required to incur additional costs to change how the property is constructed or operated due to presence of such substances. The presence of hazardous substances or a failure to properly remediate any resulting contamination could adversely affect our ability to lease, mortgage, or sell an affected property.

The use of, or inability to take advantage of the benefits of, artificial intelligence by us or our operators presents risks and challenges.

We have begun and may continue to use artificial intelligence and machine learning (collectively, “AI”) in our operations. While AI tools may facilitate optimization and operational efficiencies, they also have the potential for inaccuracy, misapplication, and misappropriation of proprietary information and intellectual property. Additionally, we may be competitively disadvantaged if our peers use AI tools to optimize operations and we fail to utilize AI tools in a comparable manner. Uncertainty around the development and security of new and emerging AI applications may require additional investment which may be costly and could impact our operating results. Our operators and vendors also may incorporate AI without disclosing such use to us or may fail to disclose risks presented by their use of AI. These outcomes could impair our ability to compete effectively, damage our reputation, result in the loss of valuable property or information and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Information systems failures or data breaches could harm our business.

We and our operators rely on information systems to process, transmit, and store financial transactions and records, operator and lease data, and other confidential information. We are not aware of any material losses to our business or results of operations due to information system failures, data breaches, or cybersecurity incidents. However, information systems are vulnerable to threats, failures, breaches, or incidents due to improper functioning and unauthorized access from physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, and similar disruptions, including by hackers, foreign governments, and cyber terrorists. We and our operators rely on information technology and on numerous third-party providers for information technology services, and we and our operators face similar risks relating to these providers. We cannot be certain that their information system and cybersecurity protocols are sufficient to withstand a data breach or cybersecurity incident. The inability to maintain proper function, security, and availability of our and our operators’ information systems and the data maintained in those systems could interrupt our operations, damage our reputation, harm our business relationships, or increase our information systems, cybersecurity and insurance costs. The rapid evolution and increasing prevalence of AI may also increase our and our operators’ risks of information system failures, data breaches, or cybersecurity incidents. Further, an information system or cybersecurity

Table of Contents

threat, failure, data breach, or incident on an operator could impact their operations and ability to perform under the terms of their lease with us. While we maintain insurance coverage that may, subject to policy terms and conditions including deductibles, cover specific aspects of information system and cybersecurity risks, such insurance coverage may be insufficient to cover all losses. As information system and cybersecurity risks continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to enhance our information system and cybersecurity measures and to investigate and remediate any information system and cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

Data privacy security failures or breaches could expose us to regulatory and other liability.

We and our operators are subject to various federal and state laws governing privacy and security of personally identifiable information. Despite safeguards by us and our operators, a data privacy security failure or breach could occur as a result of unintentional or deliberate acts to obtain unauthorized access to information, or to destroy, manipulate, or sabotage data. Further, new technologies such as AI may be more capable of evading safeguards. Information system threats, failures, breaches, or incidents also could result in the loss or release of personally identifiable information. A privacy or cybersecurity failure or breach could cause a loss of business, regulatory enforcement, substantial legal liability, and reputational harm. Where the failure or breach affects an operator, this could jeopardize the operator’s ability to fulfill its obligations to us. Further, the adoption of new privacy and cybersecurity laws at the federal and state level could require us and our operators to incur significant compliance costs.

Item 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

Item 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Cybersecurity is an integral part of risk management at our company. We have engaged a third-party cybersecurity firm along with our information technology director to monitor the cybersecurity risk facing our company and provide quarterly updates to the Board of Directors (the “Board”). Cybersecurity is overseen by the Board and the Sustainability and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the Board (the “SCR Committee”). Pursuant to its charter, the SCR Committee has the responsibility and duty to review and discuss with management on a regular basis our company’s programs, policies and procedures related to information security and data protection, including data privacy and network security, as they relate to financial reporting. The Board and the SCR Committee receive reports on cybersecurity from management at least quarterly and more often as needed. These reports on cybersecurity typically encompasses the nature and threats, defense and detection capabilities, and training activities at our company.

We routinely provide education, such as simulated phishing campaigns, to our employees to mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats. This education includes cybersecurity training for new employees and training modules sent monthly to all employees. We also use various authentication technologies and third-party monitoring to mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats. We annually retain a third-party vendor to test our information systems security and we annually review information systems security protocols of our vendors that interact with our financial data. We maintain insurance coverage that may, subject to policy terms and conditions, including deductibles, cover particular aspects of cybersecurity risk, such as data breaches, ransomware, social engineering and computer system fraud. However, it is possible such coverage may not fully insure all future costs or losses associated with all types of cybersecurity incidents such as ransomware.

We are not aware of any material losses to our business or results of operations in the past three years due to information technology systems failures, data breaches, or other cybersecurity incidents.

Item 2. PROPERTIES

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

Owned Real Properties-SHOP

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

Subsequent to December 31, 2025, we acquired three seniors housing communities within our SHOP segment for $108,000. The communities are located in Georgia with a total of 394 units. In conjunction with the acquisition, we entered into a management agreement with an existing operator. Additionally, we terminated a triple-net master lease and converted two seniors housing communities covered under the master lease to our SHOP segment. Upon conversion, we entered into a management agreement with an operator new to us. The communities have a total of 88 units and a gross book value of $25,981.

Owned Real Properties-Triple-Net Portfolio

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

(i)

a specified percentage increase over the prior year’s rent, generally between 2.0% and 2.5%;

(ii)

a calculation based on the Consumer Price Index or Medicare Market Basket Rate;

(iii)

a percentage of facility revenues in excess of base amounts; or

(iv)

specific dollar increases.

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

Table of Contents

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

During 2025, Genesis Healthcare, Inc. (“Genesis”) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, a federal bankruptcy judge approved the sale of Genesis’ assets to a newly formed investment group. Affiliates of Genesis lease six SNFs in New Mexico (five) and Alabama (one) with a total of 782 beds under a master lease with LTC. Genesis has paid their contractual rent through February 2026. We will continue to monitor the status of Genesis’ bankruptcy-related developments.

Financing Receivables

We have entered into joint ventures (“JV”) and contributed into the JVs for the acquisition of properties through sale and leaseback transactions. Concurrently, each of these JVs leased the acquired properties back to an affiliate of the seller and provided the seller-lessee with purchase options. We determined that each of these sale and leaseback transactions meet the accounting criteria to be presented as Financing receivables on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and recorded the rental revenue from these properties as Interest income from financing receivables on our Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within our consolidated financial statements for more information.

During the second quarter of 2024, we funded an additional $5,546 under a mortgage loan receivable due from an ALG affiliate secured by 13 SHs located in North Carolina (12) and South Carolina (1). We then entered into a newly formed $122,460 JV with ALG, whereby we exchanged our $64,450 mortgage loan receivable for a 53% controlling interest in the JV. Concurrently, ALG contributed these properties to the joint venture for a 47% non-controlling interest. The JV leased the properties to an ALG affiliate under a 10-year master lease, with two five-year renewal options, and provided the seller-lessee with a purchase option exercisable with an exit IRR of 8.0%.

(4)

During the second quarter of 2024, we funded an additional $2,766 under a mortgage loan receivable due from an ALG affiliate secured by four SHs located in North Carolina. We then entered into a newly formed $41,000 JV with ALG, whereby we exchanged $37,985 mortgage loan receivables for a 93% controlling interest in the JV. Concurrently, ALG contributed these properties and a parcel of land to the joint venture for a 7% non-controlling interest. The JV leased the properties to an ALG affiliate under a 10-year master lease, with two five-year renewal options, and provided the seller-lessee with a purchase option exercisable with an exit IRR of 8.0%.

Mortgage Loans

We provide mortgage financing for health care properties based on our established investment underwriting criteria. We have also provided construction loans that by their terms convert into purchase/lease transactions or permanent financing mortgage loans upon completion of construction.

(1)	Our mortgage loans are secured by properties located in five states with six borrowers. Additionally, some loans contain certain guarantees and/or provide for certain facility fees. Gross investment shown above excludes the impact of credit loss reserve.

During 2025, we modified the mortgage loan with Prestige Healthcare (“Prestige”), the borrower, to increase the current interest paid by the borrower from 8.5% to the full contractual interest rate of 11.14%, escalating annually. The modification was effective July 1, 2025. Additionally, the modification provides Prestige an option to prepay their mortgage loan at par without penalty within a 12-month window beginning in July 2026. Under the modification, Prestige agreed to provide us with at least a 90-day notice of its intention to exercise the option, and the ability for Prestige to exercise the pre-payment option is contingent on several factors including Prestige being current and in good standing on all its mortgage loans with LTC and obtaining replacement financing. In conjunction with the loan modification and the penalty-free early payoff option, we wrote-off $41,455 of effective interest previously accrued related to this mortgage loan. For more information related to the effective interest write-off see additional discussion below.

(3)	Mortgage loans provide for 2.25% annual increases in the interest rate after a certain time period.

(4)

During 2024, we committed to fund a $26,120 mortgage loan for the construction of a 116-unit SH located in Illinois. The borrower contributed $12,300 of equity which initially funded the construction. During the third quarter of 2025, we began funding the commitment. The loan bears interest at a current rate of 9.0% and an IRR of 9.5%.

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

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

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

We have an ADC loan that meets the accounting criteria to be considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE as we do not have both: 1) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance, and 2) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. However, we do have significant influence over the VIE. Therefore, we account for the investment as a joint venture using the equity method of accounting. The following table provides information regarding our investment in unconsolidated joint ventures at December 31, 2025 (dollar amounts in thousands):

Market Information

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “LTC”.

Holders

As of February 18, 2026, we had approximately 396 holders of our common stock, as determined by counting our record holders and the number of participants reflected in a security position listing provided to us by the Depository Trust Company. Because such “DTC participants” are brokers and other institutions holding shares of our common stock on behalf of their customers, we do not know the actual number of unique stockholders represented by these record holders.

We intend to distribute to our stockholders an amount at least sufficient to satisfy the distribution requirements of a REIT. Cash flows from operating activities available for distribution to stockholders will be derived primarily from interest and rental payments from our real estate investments. All distributions will be made subject to approval of our Board of Directors and will depend on our earnings, our financial condition and such other factors as our Board of Directors deems relevant. In order to qualify for the beneficial tax treatment accorded to REITs by Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, we are required to make distributions to holders of our shares equal to at least 90% of our REIT taxable income.

Executive Overview

Business and Investment Strategy

We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests in seniors housing and health care properties through sale-leasebacks, financing leases, mortgage financing, joint ventures and structured finance solutions including preferred equity and mezzanine lending. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2025, we began utilizing the structure authorized by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (commonly referred to as “RIDEA”) as permitted by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 and established a seniors housing operating portfolio (“SHOP”).

Under a typical RIDEA structure, we have certain oversight approval rights and the right to review operational and financial reporting information, but our independent third-party operators ultimately control the day-to-day operations of the property, pursuant to the terms of our management agreements. Offering RIDEA structures represent a further aspect of our traditional strategy of investing through vehicles such as non-cancelable triple-net operating leases, mortgage loans, and structured finance. We believe that RIDEA structures provide us with additional investment opportunities. We also have identified opportunities to cooperatively convert existing triple-net leases into our new SHOP segment, and in certain instances have completed these conversions. To develop and implement RIDEA structures, we may need to continue to commit financial and operational resources. While we anticipate that adding RIDEA transactions will be positive for our business model, our ability to succeed in this new segment will be determined by numerous factors, including our ability to identify suitable investments and our relationship with operators of our SHOP communities. We rely on the SHOP operator’s personnel, expertise, resources, good faith, and judgement to manage our SHOP communities efficiently and effectively. We also rely on the SHOP operators to set appropriate resident fees, provide accurate property-level financial results for our properties in a timely manner, and otherwise operate our SHOP communities in compliance with the terms of our management agreements and all applicable laws and regulations.

We seek to create, sustain and enhance stockholder equity value and provide current income for distribution to stockholders through real estate investments in seniors housing and health care properties managed by experienced operators. Our primary seniors housing and health care property classifications include skilled nursing facilities (“SNF”), assisted living facilities (“ALF”), independent living facilities (“ILF”), memory care communities (“MC”) and combinations thereof. We also invest in other (“OTH”) types of properties, such as land parcels, projects under development (“UDP”) and behavioral health care hospitals. To meet these objectives, we attempt to invest in properties that provide opportunity for additional value and current returns to our stockholders and diversify our investment portfolio by geographic location, operator, property classification and form of investment.

We conduct and manage our business as two operating segments for internal reporting and internal decision-making purposes: real estate investments (“Real Estate Investments”) segment which consists of our portfolio of owned real properties subject to non-cancelable triple-net leases (“NNN” or “Triple-Net Portfolio”), financing receivables, mortgage loan receivables, notes receivable and unconsolidated joint ventures, and our SHOP segment consists of seniors housing communities that are managed on our behalf by independent operators pursuant to the terms of separate management agreements. For purposes of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and other presentations, we generally include ALF, ILF, and MC in the seniors housing communities (“SH”) property classification. We have been operating since August 1992.

Table of Contents

The following graph summarizes our gross investments as of December 31, 2025:

Substantially all of our revenues and sources of cash flows from operations are derived from operating lease rentals, resident fees and services, interest earned on financing receivables, interest earned on outstanding mortgage loans receivable, interest earned on outstanding notes receivable and income from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. Our investments in owned real properties, financing leases, mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and preferred equity investments represent our primary source of liquidity to fund distributions and are dependent upon the performance of the operators on their lease and loan obligations and the rates earned thereon. To the extent that the operators experience operating difficulties and are unable to generate sufficient cash to make payments to us, there could be a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition. To mitigate this risk, we monitor our investments through a variety of methods determined by property type and operator. Our monitoring process includes periodic review of financial income statements for each facility, periodic review of operator credit, scheduled property inspections and review of covenant compliance.

In addition to our monitoring and research efforts, we also structure our investments to help mitigate payment risk. Some operating leases, financing leases and loans are credit-enhanced by guaranties, security deposits and/or letters of credit. Furthermore, operating leases are typically structured as master leases and loans are generally cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with other loans, operating leases or agreements between us and the operator and its affiliates.

Depending upon the availability and cost of external capital, we anticipate making additional investments in health care related properties. New investments are generally funded from cash on hand, temporary borrowings under our unsecured revolving line of credit, asset sales and internally generated cash flows. Our investments generate internal cash from rent and interest receipts and principal payments on mortgage loans receivable. Permanent financing for future investments, which replaces funds drawn under our unsecured revolving line of credit, is expected to be provided through a combination of public and private offerings of debt and equity securities and secured and unsecured debt financing. The timing, source and amount of cash flows provided by financing activities and used in investing activities are sensitive to the capital markets’ environment, especially to changes in interest rates. Changes in the capital markets’ environment may impact the availability of cost-effective capital.

We believe our business model has enabled and will continue to enable us to maintain the integrity of our property investments, including in response to financial difficulties that may be experienced by operators. We have traditionally taken and will continue to take a conservative approach to managing our business, choosing to maintain liquidity and exercise patience until favorable investment opportunities arise.
