OVERVIEW OF RESULTS: 2Q 2025 vs 2Q 2024

•Resident fees: The increase was primarily due to the 200 basis point increase in weighted average occupancy and the increase in RevPOR, primarily the result of the current year annual rate increase.

•Facility operating expense: The increase was primarily due to increases in wage rates, repairs and maintenance expense, estimated incentive compensation expense, and advertising expense.

•General and administrative expense: The increase was primarily due to a $10.4 million increase in transaction, legal, and organizational restructuring costs, which was primarily attributable to $5.2 million of organizational restructuring costs related to the Company's senior leadership change and $5.1 million of transaction costs for stockholder relations advisory matters in the current period.

•Cash facility operating lease payments: The decrease was primarily due to the acquisition of 36 communities previously subject to operating leases subsequent to the prior year period.

•Net income (loss): The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to the increase in facility operating expense, the increase in general and administrative expense, and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by the increase in resident fees.

•Adjusted EBITDA: The increase was primarily due to the increase in resident fees and the decrease in cash facility operating lease payments, partially offset by the increase in facility operating expense.

LIQUIDITY

Consolidated summary of liquidity metrics for comparable quarters:


($ in millions)	2Q 2025		2Q 2024		Increase / (Decrease)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	83.6	$	55.7	$	27.9
Non-development capital expenditures, net	48.8		52.3		(3.5)
Adjusted Free Cash Flow (1)	19.9		(5.5)		25.4

•Net cash provided by operating activities: The increase was primarily due to the increase in resident fees and an $8.3 million increase in lessor reimbursements for capital expenditures for operating leases compared to the prior year period, partially offset by the increase in facility operating expense compared to the prior year period.

•Non-development capital expenditures, net: The decrease in non-development capital expenditures, net of lessor reimbursements, was primarily due to the increase in lessor reimbursements, partially offset by an increase in investments in communities through the Company's first impressions program.

•Adjusted Free Cash Flow: The change was primarily due to the increase in net cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by the increase in investments in communities.

•Total liquidity: Total liquidity of $350.0 million as of June 30, 2025 included $251.9 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and $98.1 million of availability on the Company's secured credit facility (excluding $16.1 million of availability on the Company's separate letter of credit facilities, which can be drawn only as letters of credit). Total liquidity as of June 30, 2025 increased $44.1 million from March 31, 2025, primarily attributable to a $31.9 million increase in availability on the Company's secured credit facility and the $19.9 million of Adjusted Free Cash Flow, partially offset by repayments of mortgage debt during the period.

2025 OUTLOOK

Reflecting the Company's year-to-date progress and an improved outlook for the second half of 2025, the Company has favorably revised its annual RevPAR and Adjusted EBITDA guidance ranges.

•Full year 2025 guidance for RevPAR year-over-year growth has been improved to a range of 5.25% to 6.00% from the previous range of 5.00% to 5.75%.

•The Company also raised its full year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to a range of $445 million to $455 million from the previous range of $440 million to $450 million.

•Additionally, the Company reiterates its expectation to deliver positive Adjusted Free Cash Flow in the range of $30 million to $50 million for the full year 2025.

Full year 2025 guidance includes only announced acquisition and disposition activity. The Company's revised guidance ranges give effect to updated expectations on the transition date for all 55 Ventas non-renewal communities to be transitioned or sold. Reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures included in the foregoing guidance to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing or amounts of items required to reconcile Adjusted EBITDA from the Company's net income (loss) and Adjusted Free Cash Flow from the Company's net cash provided by operating activities. Variability in the timing or amounts of items required to reconcile the measure may have a significant impact on the Company's future GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release contains the financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to aid investors in better understanding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s performance and liquidity. However, investors should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, including net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, or net cash provided by operating activities. The Company cautions investors that amounts presented in accordance with the Company’s definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate non-GAAP measures in the same manner. The Company urges investors to review the following reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures from the most comparable financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure that the Company defines as net income (loss) excluding: benefit/provision for income taxes, non-operating income/expense items, and depreciation and amortization; and further adjusted to exclude income/expense associated with non-cash, non-operational, transactional, legal, cost reduction, or organizational restructuring items that management does not consider as part of the Company’s underlying core operating performance and that management believes impact the comparability of performance between periods. For the periods presented herein, such other items include non-cash impairment charges, operating lease expense adjustment, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, gain/loss on sale of communities, and transaction, legal, and organizational restructuring costs. Transaction costs include those directly related to acquisition, disposition, financing, and leasing activity and stockholder relations advisory matters, and are primarily comprised of legal, finance, consulting, professional fees, and other third-party costs. Legal costs include charges associated with putative class action litigation. Organizational restructuring costs include those related to the Company’s efforts to reduce general and administrative expense and its senior leadership changes, including severance.

The Company believes that presentation of Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure is useful to investors because (i) it is one of the metrics used by the Company’s management for budgeting and other planning purposes, to review the Company’s historic and prospective core operating performance, and to make day-to-day operating decisions; (ii) it provides an assessment of operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely revenues and the controllable cost structure of the organization, by eliminating items related to the Company’s financing and capital structure and other items that management does not consider as part of the Company’s underlying core operating performance and that management believes impact the comparability of performance between periods; (iii) the Company believes that this measure is used by research analysts and investors to evaluate the Company’s operating results and to value companies in its industry; and (iv) the Company uses the measure for components of executive compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as a performance measure, including: (i) excluded interest and income tax are necessary to operate the Company’s business under its current financing and capital structure; (ii) excluded depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges may represent the wear and tear and/or reduction in value of the Company’s communities, goodwill, and other assets and may be indicative of future needs for capital expenditures; and (iii) the Company may incur income/expense similar to those for which adjustments are made, such as gain/loss on sale of assets, facility operating lease termination, or debt modification and extinguishment, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and transaction, legal, and other costs, and such income/expense may significantly affect the Company’s operating results.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure that the Company defines as net cash provided by operating activities before: distributions from unconsolidated ventures from cumulative share of net earnings, changes in prepaid insurance premiums financed with notes payable, changes in operating lease assets and liabilities for lease termination, cash paid/received for gain/loss on facility operating lease termination, and lessor capital expenditure reimbursements under operating leases; plus: property and casualty insurance proceeds; less: non-development capital expenditures and payment of financing lease obligations. Non-development capital expenditures are comprised of corporate and community-level capital expenditures, including those related to maintenance, renovations, upgrades, and other major building infrastructure projects for the Company’s communities and is presented net of lessor reimbursements. Non-development capital expenditures do not include capital expenditures for: community expansions, major community redevelopment and repositioning projects, and the development of new communities.

The Company believes that presentation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a liquidity measure is useful to investors because (i) it is one of the metrics used by the Company’s management for budgeting and other planning purposes, to review the Company’s historic and prospective sources of operating liquidity, and to review the Company’s ability to service its outstanding indebtedness, pay dividends to stockholders, engage in share repurchases, and make capital expenditures, including development capital expenditures; and (ii) it provides an indicator to management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow has material limitations as a liquidity measure, including: (i) it does not represent cash available for dividends, share repurchases, or discretionary expenditures since certain non-discretionary expenditures, including mandatory debt principal payments, are not reflected in this measure; (ii) the cash portion of non-recurring charges related to gain/loss on facility lease termination generally represent charges/gains that may significantly affect the Company’s liquidity; and (iii) the impact of timing of cash expenditures, including the timing of non-development capital expenditures, limits the usefulness of the measure for short-term comparisons.
