Community Healthcare Trust Announces Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
FRANKLIN, Tenn., May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (NYSE: CHCT) (the "Company") today announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company reported net income for the first quarter of approximately $1.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share. Funds from operations and adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") for the three months ended March 31, 2019 totaled $0.37 and $0.40, respectively, per diluted common share.
Highlights include:
- During the first quarter of 2019, the Company issued, through its at-the-market offering program ("ATM Program"), 143,600 shares of common stock at an average gross sales price of $33.57 per share and received net proceeds of approximately $4.7 million at an approximate 4.96% current equity yield.
- During the first quarter of 2019, the Company acquired two real estate properties totaling approximately 83,000 square feet for an aggregate purchase price and cash consideration of approximately $32.7 million. Upon acquisition, the properties were 100% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations in 2029.
- On April 30, 2019, the Company acquired one real estate property that was newly constructed totaling approximately 81,000 square feet for an aggregate purchase price and cash consideration of approximately $27.0 million. Upon acquisition, the property was 100.0% leased with lease expiration in 2034.
- The Company has two properties under definitive purchase agreements for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $4.9 million. The Company's expected aggregate returns on these investments range from approximately 9.3% to 9.4%. The Company anticipates the properties will close during the second quarter of 2019; however, the Company is currently performing due diligence procedures customary for these types of transactions and cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, the transaction will actually close.
- The Company has four properties under definitive purchase agreements, to be acquired after completion and occupancy, for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $76.0 million. The Company's expected aggregate returns on these investments is approximately 11.0%. The Company expects to close these properties through the end of 2019; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close.
- On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to its credit agreement, adding a $75.0 million term loan, which matures on March 29, 2026, extended the maturity of the revolving facility to March 29, 2023, improved pricing on the Credit Facility, and adjusted certain financial covenants. The amounts outstanding under the revolving facility will bear annual interest at a floating rate equal to (x) LIBOR plus (y) a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.90% (currently 1.65%). Payments under the credit agreement are interest only, with the full amount of the principal due at maturity and may be prepaid at any time, without penalty. Also, on March 29, 2019, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements that fixed the interest rates on the $75.0 million term loan, resulting in a fixed interest rate ranging from to 3.825% to 4.538% (currently 4.284%), depending on the Company's leverage and other factors.
- On May 1, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend in the amount of $0.41 per share. The dividend is payable on May 31, 2019 to stockholders of record on May 17, 2019.
Highlands Transition Update:
- As previously announced, the Company experienced payment issues with the old operator of Highlands Hospital ("Highlands"). Effective February 11, 2019, the Company signed a Transition Agreement, to transition the property to a new operator and signed a lease with a new operator.
- The old operator and new operator have signed an asset purchase agreement pursuant to which the new operator will take over the facility. In addition, the old operator and new operator have signed a management agreement and the new operator is currently managing Highlands pursuant to the management agreement. The new operator continues to perform due diligence and is in the process of preparing for transfer of licenses and related items customary for these types of transactions. We cannot provide assurance as to the timing, or whether, this transaction will actually close.
- The new lease will be effective upon the transfer of the licenses to the new operator, which is anticipated to happen in the second half of 2019. The new lease provides for rental payments approximately equal to the amounts due under the previous agreements with the old operator.
- The Company is receiving monthly payments under the Transition Agreement which approximate the amounts due from the old operator under the previous agreements. These payments are to continue as long as the Transition Agreement is in place. The Transition Agreement will terminate when the licenses are transferred to the new operator, at which time the new lease will become effective.
- Since the Transition Agreement became effective in February, the Company only received payments during the first quarter for February and March thus did not recognize revenue for the month of January representing approximately $0.3 million.
- In addition, the Company incurred professional fees (legal and accounting) totaling over $0.1 million related to the workout and transition.
- The Transition Agreement includes provisions for the Company to receive payment for the amounts due from the old operator that remain unpaid. The Company anticipates collecting all amounts due.
- Though the Company has experienced some short-term effects from the timing of receipts or reimbursement of expenses, the Company does not anticipate any material adverse long-term effect to its cash flows or net income related to the transition or subsequent leasing of this facility.

(1) | 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 and FFO per share are operating performance measures 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 and gains or losses from change in control, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate, plus 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, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, as well as other items discussed in NAREIT's Funds From Operations White Paper - 2018 Restatement. 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) | Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for FFO are calculated based on the treasury method, rather than the 2-class method used to calculate earnings per share. |
