FRANKLIN, Tenn.,
July 30,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Healthcare Trust
Incorporated (NYSE: CHCT) (the "Company") today announced results
for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The Company
reported a net loss for the three months ended June 30,
2024 of approximately $10.4 million,
or $0.42 per diluted common share.
Funds from operations ("FFO") and adjusted funds from operations
("AFFO") for the three months ended June 30,
2024 totaled $0.43 and
$0.53, respectively, per diluted
common share.
Items Impacting Our Results include:
- During the three months ended June 30,
2024, the Company determined that the collectability of
certain lease and interest payments with a geriatric inpatient
behavioral hospital tenant were not reasonably assured. The Company
has six leases with this hospital tenant. The tenant has
experienced challenges with patient census and employee staffing,
which has impacted cash flows from operations and the consistency
of rent and interest payments to the Company. As a result, the
Company recorded reserves on accounts receivable totaling
$1.9 million, including $0.9 million of non-cash straight-line rent, and
recorded a $1.4 million allowance on
its interest receivables and placed them on non-accrual status,
resulting in a reduction of FFO per diluted share of approximately
$0.12 and a reduction in AFFO per
diluted share, which adds back non-cash straight-line rent, by
approximately $0.09 for the three
months ended June 30, 2024. The
Company also has a term loan and revolving credit facility with
this tenant totaling approximately $22.7
million. Based on the Company's valuation of the underlying
collateral, the Company recorded an $11.0
million credit loss reserve on its notes receivable with the
tenant at June 30, 2024 . Because the
Company views its notes receivable as incidental to its business of
acquiring and leasing real estate, the $11.0
million credit loss reserve was added back in calculating
FFO and, therefore, does not impact FFO or AFFO per diluted
share.
- During the three months ended June 30,
2024, the Company acquired one inpatient rehabilitation
facility for a purchase price of approximately $23.5 million. Upon acquisition, the 38,000
square foot property was 100.0% leased to a tenant with a lease
expiration in 2039. These acquisitions were funded with proceeds
from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility and through net
proceeds from equity sales through the ATM program.
- Subsequent to June 30, 2024, the
Company acquired one medical office building for a purchase price
of approximately $6.2 million and
cash consideration of approximately $6.3
million. Upon acquisition, the property was 100.0% leased
with a lease expiration in 2027. The acquisition was funded with
proceeds from the Company's Revolving Credit Facility.
- The Company has seven properties under definitive purchase
agreements, to be acquired after completion and occupancy, for an
aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $169.5 million. The Company's expected returns on
these investments are approximately 9.1% to 9.75%. The Company
anticipates closing on one of these properties in the fourth
quarter of 2024 with the remainder throughout 2025, 2026 and 2027;
however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of
when, or whether, these transactions will actually close.
- During the second quarter of 2024, the Company issued, through
its at-the-market offering program, approximately 294,000 shares of
common stock at an average gross sales price of $24.17 per share for net proceeds of
approximately $7.0 million at an
approximate 7.77% current equity yield.
- On July 25, 2024, the Company's
Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend in
the amount of $0.4625 per share. The
dividend is payable on August 23,
2024 to stockholders of record on August 9, 2024.

Historical cost
accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value
of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time.
However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen
with market conditions, many industry investors deem presentations
of operating results for real estate companies that use historical
cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. For that reason,
the Company considers funds from operations ("FFO") and adjusted
funds from operations ("AFFO") to be appropriate measures of
operating performance of an equity real estate investment trust
("REIT"). In particular, the Company believes that AFFO is useful
because it allows investors, analysts and Company management to
compare the Company's operating performance to the operating
performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a
consistent basis without having to account for differences caused
by unanticipated items and other events.
The Company uses the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc.
("NAREIT") definition of FFO. FFO is an operating performance
measure adopted by NAREIT. NAREIT defines FFO as the most commonly
accepted and reported measure of a REIT's operating performance
equal to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding
gains or losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains
and losses from change in control, impairment write-downs of
certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the
impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of
depreciable real estate held by the entity, plus depreciation and
amortization related to real estate properties, and after
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
NAREIT also provides REITs with an option to exclude gains, losses
and impairments of assets that are incidental to the main business
of the REIT from the calculation of FFO.
In addition to FFO, the
Company presents AFFO and AFFO per share. The Company defines AFFO
as FFO, excluding certain expenses related to closing costs of
properties acquired accounted for as business combinations and
mortgages funded, excluding straight-line rent and the amortization
of stock-based compensation, and including or excluding other
non-cash items from time to time. AFFO presented herein may not be
comparable to similar measures presented by other real estate
companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use
the same definition.
FFO and AFFO should not
be considered as alternatives to net income (determined in
accordance with GAAP) as indicators of the Company's financial
performance or as alternatives to cash flow from operating
activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as measures of the
Company's liquidity, nor are they necessarily indicative of
sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs. The
Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding
of the consolidated historical operating results of the Company,
FFO and AFFO should be examined in conjunction with net income as
presented elsewhere herein.
|
(2)
|
Net loss and FFO for
the three months ended June 30, 2024 included reversals of rent and
interest related to a tenant totaling approximately
$3.2 million, including straight-line rent of approximately
$0.9 million, resulting in a reduction of FFO per diluted
share of approximately $0.12 per diluted share. AFFO, which adds
back straight-line rent, was reduced by approximately $0.09 per
diluted share for the three months ending June 30, 2024.
|
(3)
|
Net income and FFO for
the three months ended June 30, 2023 included a $0.7 million net
casualty gain from insurance proceeds received related to one
property that was vandalized. The net gain increased FFO by $0.03
per diluted share for the three months ended June 30,
2023.
|
(4)
|
During the three months
ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an $11.0 million
credit loss reserve related to notes receivable that are incidental
to the Company's main business with a geriatric inpatient
behavioral hospital tenant.
|
(5)
|
Diluted weighted
average common shares outstanding for FFO and AFFO are calculated
based on the treasury method, rather than the 2-class method used
to calculate earnings per share.
